Ji Fei's sarcasm was at its peak, her mocking tone filling the entire corridor. Each word lashed out like a whip, striking the couple.

Compared to directly insulting them, this indirect humiliation felt twice as painful.

The color drained from both their faces.

They seemed on the verge of fainting from anger.

Then Ji Fei added, "Isn't that right, uncle and auntie? It's such a pity your tissue typing failed."

Gao Hao was ready to give this lady a thumbs up. It felt so satisfying to hear.

This time, Mrs. Chu couldn't stand it anymore. She collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, her eyes bloodshot, unable to meet anyone's gaze. Yet she still couldn't admit they were wrong.0

"No... we're old, so..." In truth, they hadn't even considered it. They had just taken it for granted... assuming it was natural for Chu Xinyue to sacrifice herself.

"Hmph, you... have no shame," Qin Zhao said coldly, releasing Mr. Chu and letting him slump pathetically against the wall.

Being scolded like this by someone younger was no different from a slap in the face - it was an utter humiliation.

Mr. Chu finally fell to the ground, completely disgraced. Yet he still shouted, "It's none of your business to criticize our Chu Family's affairs! Get out, all of you get out!"

Ji Fei: "Oh my, not only do I want to criticize, I also plan to spread the word about your family's conduct in our social circles, so everyone can see what kind of people you are!"

"No! What are you trying to do?!" Mrs. Chu immediately shrieked.

"Oh? Weren't you so righteous before? Didn't you think you were doing the right thing? Why are you so afraid of people knowing now?" Gao Hao couldn't help but join in with the sarcasm. "You wanted the school to see Chu Xinyue's character earlier, why don't you take a good look at your own character first?"

Mrs. Chu froze completely.

Ji Fei and Gao Hao exchanged glances, giving each other a thumbs up.

Qin Xian, stuck in the middle: ...He had helped too, you know.

Mr. Chu: "You've all gone mad! What does this have to do with any of you?! Chu Xinyue has already broken off the engagement with your Qin family!"

Qin Zhao said coldly: "The broken engagement is because I'm not worthy, I deserve it. But listen well! I, young master Qin, will see Chu Xinyue's matters through to the end!"

Qin Zhao looked down at the couple, saying fiercely: "There's something you don't know yet. Your precious daughter was infected by Wu Tian. She was slashed today because she tried to harm Xinyue with a syringe. She deliberately appeared there with malicious intent, and then suffered the consequences. Doesn't she love pretending to be Chu Xinyue? She got what she deserved!"

Upon hearing this, the Chu couple was stunned.

What disease? How was it transmitted?

"No! Impossible..." Mrs. Chu screamed.

Suddenly, they remembered that earlier, the doctors and nurses seemed to have strange attitudes, as if they were hiding something. And the police also said they had important questions for Chu Xueqi, unrelated to the slashing incident.

If what Qin Zhao said was true, then Chu Xueqi was intentionally spreading a disease, which was a crime.

"If you still think Chu Xinyue should save Chu Xueqi after knowing this, then you're worse than animals."

The Chu couple's faces flushed red, their expressions constantly changing, clearly shaken by this revelation.

Qin Zhao didn't care about their reactions. He came to make his stance clear and issue a warning.

"Remember my words. From now on, stay far away with your precious daughter. Never appear in my and Chu Xinyue's world again. Don't see her, don't contact her. If I find out you've bothered Chu Xinyue even once, I will use all my connections and resources to make your family of three eternal laughingstocks in society! I'll let you know what it truly means to be detested by everyone!"

Even without relying on the Qin family's power, he could achieve this with his own abilities. After all, this was a threat from the top celebrity Qin Zhao. Even Gao Hao couldn't help but straighten his back.

The Chu couple trembled, feeling both resentful and fearful of the threat.

"We won't make her do the transplant, but do you have to make us cut off all family ties?"

"Stop talking about family ties with that shameless face. Did you ever give her any? She doesn't want anything to do with you now. Have some self-awareness and face the facts. You still think you can act like parents?"

Qin Zhao's polite upbringing had completely crumbled in front of this couple.

"You... you..." Mr. Chu was so angry he couldn't even form a complete sentence.

Mrs. Chu was reduced to tears by the scolding. She turned to Qin Xian and said, "Is this how the Qin family raises their children? Openly threatening and intimidating elders who are old family friends! Our families have been friends for four generations!"

Qin Xian replied expressionlessly, "I'd like to ask the same thing. Is it your family's upbringing to let your daughter with an infectious disease knock on my brother's door in the middle of the night? What was she trying to do?"

His tone was flat, but his words pierced the couple like icy arrows.

"How could this..." The Chu couple suddenly realized something, their faces changing drastically. "It must be a misunderstanding..."

Qin Xian stood up and said, "What you just heard was my brother's warning. Now, this is the Qin family's warning. If you go against my brother's wishes again, I will concentrate the power of the Qin Corporation to suppress all of the Chu Family's businesses until the Chu Family expels you three from the family. So... Uncle Chu, Aunt Chu, for the sake of our families' long-standing friendship, behave yourselves. We don't want things to get too ugly. I will inform the Chu Family's second uncle of our position later."

The Chu couple looked as if their souls had been sucked out in an instant. They looked at Qin Xian, then at Qin Zhao, with ashen faces. Under such absolute intimidation, they finally couldn't utter a single word.

Soon after, Chu Xueqi woke up from anesthesia. Unaccustomed to suffering, she began to wail, especially when she felt the deep, bone-deep scar that almost spanned half of her face.0

Her love was ruined, her career was ruined, her life was ruined.

Amidst her screams, she saw her parents, but they didn't come to comfort her as they usually would.

Chu Xueqi belatedly sensed something was wrong and looked at her parents in bewilderment.

"You contracted an infectious disease?"

"You still wanted to infect your sister and Qin Zhao?"

"Why, daughter, why have you become like this?!"

"Do you know what you've done?!"

"Ahhhh, it's all your fault! You shouldn't have given birth to Chu Xinyue after having me! I wanted to infect them! If Chu Xinyue had broken off the engagement earlier instead of holding onto Qin Zhao, I would have been with him openly long ago. If Qin Zhao wasn't so stubborn and refused to touch me, I wouldn't have gone to Wu Tian. It's all their fault! If I can't live well, I want them to die with me!"

"Slap!" Mr. Chu's hand came down hard, reopening the wound on Chu Xueqi's face, making it bleed again.

"Ah!" Chu Xueqi looked at her father in disbelief. "You hit me? You've never hit me before!"

"Husband, don't..." Mrs. Chu wanted to stop him, but she didn't know who she should be stopping!

Mr. Chu also stared at his own palm in a daze, remembering how many times this hand had struck Chu Xinyue. He laughed weakly, a sound more painful than crying.

Soon after, they received a call from the current head of the Chu Family. His angry voice carried a warning, telling them to act as if Chu Xinyue didn't exist and not to shamelessly approach her again. Otherwise, they would be kicked out of the Chu Family.

After hanging up the phone, the Chu couple didn't speak for a long time. They just sat there with vacant eyes, accompanying their daughter. It was just like the many years they had spent abroad caring for their child, but their state of mind had been completely overturned.

From that point on, the Chu family of three disappeared completely from Chu Xinyue's world.

Not long after, when Chu Xinyue turned on her phone, she immediately contacted Qin Zhao, wanting to check on his injuries.

Qin Zhao, who was recuperating at home, immediately sprang up.

He was no longer on the blacklist, he had been unblocked!

Hurrah!

Upon confirming that Chu Xinyue would be coming to the Qin house to visit him, Qin Zhao ran downstairs, creating such a commotion that he startled Qin's Mother, Qin Yan, and Ji Fei, who were watching a TV drama together.

After inquiring, everyone became excited - there was gossip to be had!

Qin Zhao went out to meet Chu Xinyue personally.

The three waited at home, but Qin Zhao returned quickly.

And he came back furiously dragging someone with him.

Upon closer look, it was Qin Rong, who was supposed to return home today.

What happened? Why did one look so angry and the other so aggrieved?

Ji Fei couldn't help but seek out the gossip in advance.

[Oh, it turns out Qin Rong secretly got a boyfriend without telling the family.]

Qin's Mother and Qin Yan: ????

[When Qin Zhao arrived at the pickup point, he saw Qin Rong standing with a guy with dyed blonde hair. In full view of the public, the blonde guy was smoking and blowing smoke into Qin Rong's face. One of his hands was around Qin Rong's waist, while the other was sliding up her thigh under her skirt. Upon seeing this scene, Qin Zhao immediately exploded with anger.]

Qin's Mother, Qin Yan: Hold on! We're exploding with anger too!!!!!

Their well-behaved little sister has been defiled by some wild boar?!!!
