Quick Transmigration: Sorry, I Never Loved You - Chapter 184
Her footsteps were light, but to the ears of the Zhao couple, it carried a terrifying meaning behind all of it. The child didn’t go into her room. If she truly became more intelligent, then did that mean.. She heard everything that they had talked about?
A thin layer of sweat was formed on their skin. Their faces scrunched up in a mixture of emotions.
“Oh, please do not show such an.. uncomfortable expression after seeing me.” Xu Jiaqi giggled as she clasped her hands together.
“You…. cursed child. It would’ve been better if you just stayed in the hospital until you die!” Zhao Shiqi was a little frightened after her husband’s talk, but she still couldn’t help but curse Xu Jiaqi.
“Yes,but I also think that going through the legal procedures will be.. much more harmful for you two and your beloved daughter. That’s what the generous lawyer said to me.” Xu Jiaqi said. “I’ve woken up after so long, and I can’t just keep letting myself be caught up in the past.”
“What is it that you want?” Zhao Dinghao knew that he wouldn’t be able to get out of this situation without losing something, so he wanted to bargain.
“As you may have expected it, you stole my parents’ asset.. I don’t know how you managed to get the rights to what belongs to me, but not only that, you have also wronged me over all these years.” Xu Jiaqi announced coldly. “Above all, I think you know best what you have done at that time.”
In truth, Xu Jiaqi had no idea exactly what the Zhao couple did to come up to this point, it was nothing but a scare tactic to further elevate her case. Ambiguous lies that she made up.
“I believe that money will solve all of this. Out of courtesy for my parents, I shall regretfully pardon you for the crimes you committed. But, money.. Of course, you have to reimburse me!”
To be honest, all that Xu Jiaqi wanted right now was some funds to start her own business that would earn money and was related to her mission. Without any funds to her name, how could she actively complete her work?
She didn’t have much interest in her parents’ original asset, because that silly amount wouldn’t matter much to her, who was used to gigantic amounts.
“How.. much?” Zhao Dinghao was careful as he asked. The Xu parents did have a wealthy sum. It was one of the reasons that he was jealous of them in the first place, after all.
They were both popular, had the looks, was loved by everyone, had superb talent, and so on. How could he, who was regarded as close by them, grow to be jealous as well?
Well, it was a good thing that they fell apart. The only price they had to pay was actually taking in Xu Jiaqi and acting as her guardian.
But now.. how much will Xu Jiaqi want to take from them? After collecting most of the assets, they managed to become a wealthy family, but they weren’t people who were geared up for business in the first place. After all these years, it was safe to say that the original assets had deteriorated quite far.
If Xu Jiaqi threatens them with an amount that they can’t pay up for, they might have to take some extreme actions and corner this little girl.
“Give me one hundred thousand dollars. In one go. That amount should be possible for you to take out right away. I hold some interesting evidences, and I’m prepared to send them to my lawyer. If that happens, then I guess you won’t have any back door anymore for you to escape from.” Xu Jiaqi threatened.
Zhao Dinghao felt intimidated. Why did the little girl change so much? He had always known that she was a huge eccentric, but this sudden change in personality.. What could explain it?
Was it really just because of an encounter with a lawyer? That easily?
He thought deeply. One hundred thousand dollars was a huge sum, but he could indeed pull that amount out. After thinking for some time, he finally decided amidst Zhao Shiqi’s fervent protests from the side.
“..I will do it. In exchange, I want you to never bother us again! Go somewhere far and live for yourself, I don’t want to take care of someone who can’t even be grateful!” Zhao Dinghao still wanted to keep up his play, and sought to put the blame on Xu Jiaqi. “I want to put this exchange in form of a contract. You might be a little girl, so you wouldn’t know, but taking a large sum of money without explanation will cause nothing but problems for yourself.”
Although he didn’t know what happened to Xu Jiaqi, his most fervent wish would be to eradicate her out of his life. End the Xu lineage completely. That disastrous family that he loathed.
He had to improve his conditions as to not suffer a huge less by any means possible.
In his mind, this would be Xu Jiaqi’s loss in the end. What was one hundred thousand dollars if it meant that he would no longer be bothered by this matter any longer?
Xu Jiaqi will be gone for good! In fact, it was a good thing that she only asked for that sum.
Zhao Dinghao thought that he won.
Xu Jiaqi: But.. you fell into my trap! That was exactly what I wanted to happen! Trap card detected!
In the end, Xu Jiaqi received a pseudo money card that could be used. Xu Jiaqi made sure to threaten them extra harshly, so that the thought of locking the card would be rendered not possible.
Xu Jiaqi left the house, and did not pay any heed to the couple who was still bickering. Instead, she pandered over to what she had to do from now on.
She had to secure the basic necessities of life, so she quickly searched for a living space.
