Quick Transmigration: Why did you provoke him? He's love-struck!

Chapter 637 Dawn (43)

Only after Yan Yuxi finished speaking did she belatedly realize that she had spoken too impulsively.

She immediately apologized, "Aunt Zhang, I'm sorry, I wasn't targeting you, my stomach just hurts so much..."

Aunt Zhang snapped out of her daze and forced a stiff smile: "It's alright, it's alright, I'll take you home first."

Back at the Yan family home, Yan Yuxi went into her room, lay on the bed, and her heart was still pounding.

During his brief encounter with Xu Yingxia and her son, Xiang Yong bluntly stated his purpose: he needed money.

Xiang Yong, who is 20 years old this year, failed to get into university and stayed at home for two years. He recently started dating a girlfriend and they are currently discussing marriage.

The woman demanded a dowry of 120,000 yuan, which the Xiang family couldn't afford even if they sold everything they owned. So, Xiang Yong and Xu Yingxia set their sights on Yan Yuxi.

Xu Yingxia asked Yan Yuxi to "borrow" 150,000 yuan for her wedding.

“After your brother gets married, he and your sister-in-law will go to work in the south. I heard that you can earn 4,000 yuan a month working in a factory here. Your brother and sister-in-law will earn 8,000 yuan together. They will pay you back 7,000 yuan a month, and you can pay it off in two years.”

Yan Yuxi receives over 200,000 yuan in New Year's money every year, so it's not that she can't afford it.

But she knew very well that once the money was given away, it would never be returned.

Moreover, by opening this door, the Xiang family felt they could "borrow" money from her, which turned into a bottomless pit that could never be filled.

Besides, why should she give him this money?

She is neither a member of the Xiang family nor has she ever lived with them; in fact, she has never even met them in the past thirteen years.

Who gave Xu Yingxia and Xiang Yong the nerve to come here and ask her for 150,000 yuan?

However, after Yan Yuxi made it clear that she would not give him the money, Xiang Yong's expression suddenly turned ferocious.

"If you don't give me the money, I'll go to the Yan family's house and school every day to ambush you, so your classmates and friends will know that you're not the Yan family's daughter at all! You're just Chu Huian and Yan Yi's adopted daughter!"

Yan Yuxi closed her eyes, clutching her aching abdomen and gritting her teeth in secret.

She wasn't afraid of Xiang Yong and Xu Yingxia causing trouble at the school. She attended the best private middle school in Yuncheng, with top-notch security facilities, and people unrelated to the school couldn't get in at all.

Moreover, even if the mother and son really caused a scene at the school, she could simply call the police to have them removed.

Yan Yuxi was worried that Xiang Yong would cause trouble in front of Yan Yi and Chu Huian.

Chu Huian's mind is now focused on her biological daughter, and Yan Yi's attitude towards her is indifferent. Yan Yuxi is worried that if Xiang Yong and Xu Yingxia have a big fight, Chu Huian and Yan Yi will get impatient and send her back to Xiangjia Village.

She absolutely cannot go to Xiangjia Village!

If she went back to that remote mountain village, her life would be over.

After Yan Yuxi tried to calm herself down, her mind returned to normal.

She thought of Yan Zhen.

Yan Zhen lived in Xiangjia Village until she was seven years old. For Xiang Yong and Xu Yingxia, their adopted daughter, whom they had raised for seven years, was much closer to them than their biological daughter. Even if they wanted money, they should ask Yan Zhen for it.

If I could transfer the trouble caused by Xiang Yong and Xu Yingxia to Yan Zhen, and let them fight like dogs, wouldn't I be able to get away successfully?

That evening, Yan Zhen, Chu Huian, and Yan Yi returned to the Yan family home.

The family of three spent most of the day at the tennis court, with Yan Yi personally teaching Yan Zhen how to play tennis.

Yan Zhen has been practicing boxing for a long time, so his reaction speed is fast and his physical fitness is better than that of the average person. It only took him two hours to go from a complete novice to a fully proficient boxer. After practicing for half a day, he was even able to fight Yan Yi to a draw.

Yan Yi was impressed by Yan Zhen's strong learning and practical skills. Yan Yi had a smile on his face all day and his eyes were filled with more and more appreciation for Yan Zhen.

Back at the Yan family home, Aunt Zhang had already prepared dinner. She went upstairs and called Yan Yuxi. The four of them sat down to eat when Yan Yi's phone rang.

He answered the phone, stood up and said, "I have something to take care of, you guys eat."

Then he left in a hurry.

As soon as he left, Chu Huian, who had been in a good mood, immediately turned pale. She put her chopsticks on the table and said, "It must be that vixen again!"

Yan Yi kept four mistresses on the side. He would have sex with them every month according to their ovulation period. With his efforts, one of the women, named Cheng Xue, became pregnant.

When Cheng Xue was four months pregnant, she had a fetal sex determination test, which revealed that it was a boy.

With her newfound confidence, Cheng Xue acted like a concubine vying for the emperor's favor. Whenever Yan Yi stayed at the Yan family for too long, she would call him with various excuses such as "stomach ache," "headache," or "baby being fussy" to urge him to come and keep her company.

Yan Yi had high hopes for the baby in Cheng Xue's belly, and would rush over to her immediately whenever she felt unwell.

Provoked by Cheng Xue, Chu Huian lost her temper quite often.

For example, right now, as soon as she lost her temper, the atmosphere at the dining table immediately became tense. Yan Yuxi lowered her head and dared not speak. Even Aunt Zhang, who brought the soup, did not dare to linger and went back to the kitchen after putting down the soup.

Only Yan Zhen was unaffected by the low pressure. He picked up a soup spoon, ladled himself a bowl of soup, and happily drank it.

Chu Huian got angry at her carefree attitude and couldn't help but say, "All you know is how to eat! Didn't you try to stop your dad when he left?"

Yan Zhen glanced at her: "Can I stop you?"

"How do you know you can't stop her if you don't try!" Chu Huian was furious and had nowhere to vent her anger, so she took it out on Yan Zhen. "Weren't you quite clever at the tennis court today? Why did you become like a block of wood as soon as you got back? You knew it was Cheng Xue calling, couldn't you have just sweet-talked your dad and asked him to stay?"

"Acting cute? That's not worth such a sacrifice for me." Yan Zhen scoffed. "Instead of criticizing me here, why don't you drive over there and tear that vixen apart? Or if you try harder, you can get pregnant with a boy, then you can compete with that vixen."

“You…” Chu Huian stood up abruptly, staring at Yan Zhen who looked indifferent, her good mood from the day completely gone.

Seeing this, Yan Yuxi spoke up at the right time to "advise" Yan Zhen: "Zhenzhen, say less. Mom doesn't sleep well to begin with. If you upset her, she won't be able to sleep at night."

Chu Huian turned her gaze to Yan Yuxi's anxious face. Compared to Yan Zhen, she immediately felt that Yan Yuxi was more understanding.

When her gaze returned to Yan Zhen, Chu Huian said sarcastically, "Sure enough, those who weren't raised by their parents aren't close to them."

Yan Zhen picked up a cashew, chewed it, and swallowed it before slowly saying, "Yan Yuxi is someone you raised. She's close to you, but can she help you tear apart that vixen, or stop Yan Yi? Or can she help you win Yan Yi's favor?"

Chu Huian: "..."

Yan Yuxi: "..."

"You yourself spent over a decade trying to accomplish something you couldn't, and you expect a teenager like me to do it? Are you overestimating me, or do you simply have no self-awareness?"

Chu Huian: "..."

Chu Huian didn't eat dinner and angrily went upstairs.
