Chapter 278: Chapter 278: 278: Don't Leave After School (End)

Chuzheng had already decided on the company and naturally wouldn’t change her decision.

Even if Qin Feng tried to find Chuzheng, it would be useless; he couldn’t even see her.

It was only later that he was informed Chuzheng didn’t come by often, and the last time she had come was because she was going out with Jih Cheng. This place was closer to Jih Cheng, so she had stopped by to take a look.

Qin Feng didn’t win the project.

Once the project was completed, Qin Feng made a point of visiting.

It was an amusement park themed around various sweets.

It covered an extensive area and had already attracted a lot of attention before it was completed.

Now that it was officially open, it caused quite a stir.

The attractions here were free of charge, but there were donation boxes outside each attraction. If someone felt bad about playing for free, they could choose to donate.

“President Xu must be crazy, we’re working ourselves to death here, and in the end, it’s free of charge, how on Earth are we going to make money?”

“Make money? President Xu would be happier losing money. Look at the projects we’ve invested in these past few years, which one has made money that President Xu was pleased about? It’s only when we lose money that President Xu hands out bonuses.”

“Does President Xu have money to burn like that? What a profligate!”

“Do you know who this amusement park was built for?”

“…Isn’t it just an amusement park? Who else could it be built for? Doesn’t President Xu just want to squander his family’s wealth?”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You’re so clueless you won’t even admit it, this amusement park was built for Mr. Jih.”

“Ah? How do you know?”

“I heard it from President Xu himself,” that person said proudly. “Despite Mr. Jih’s serious appearance, he actually really likes sweets. Haven’t you noticed President Xu always has sweets but never eats them himself? He’s giving them to Mr. Jih.”

“Eh, really…”

Qin Feng, standing at the doorway overhearing the two people discussing something he couldn’t quite make out, felt incredibly complicated emotions.

In the end, he could only leave dejectedly.

–

Jih Cheng found out about the amusement park Chuzheng built for him a few days later.

He learned about it while watching the news, hearing an interview with a passerby who mentioned the park was built for him.

Chuzheng rarely talked to him about what she was doing.

Even if he asked, she would only focus on the main points in her reply, considering the rest as idle chatter.

If he asked too much, she would get impatient and tell him to shut up, with a fierce but… somewhat cute expression.

After hearing the news, Jih Cheng asked, “Someone in the news said this amusement park was built for me, is that true?”

Who knew Chuzheng would actually nod seriously.

Jih Cheng was stunned where he stood.

He looked at the still-playing news, then at Chuzheng, and it took him a long while to find his voice again.

“Why… would you build an amusement park for no reason?”

And to build it for him.

You might be wealthy, but this is just burning money, right?

“You don’t like it?” Chuzheng stood in the backlighting of the living room, her voice cool as usual, but now it seemed even more aloof.

Jih Cheng’s heart skipped a beat.

“No, I really like it,” Jih Cheng hastily corrected himself. “I just think it’s too expensive.”

“My money is meant to be spent on you, who else? Good Person Card isn’t just for helping me to squander my inheritance, right?! How can you be so unaware!!”

Jih Cheng: “…”

How can a girl be so provocative!

Fireworks were popping in Jih Cheng’s mind.

Dear Lord!

Just let me die!

Suddenly, Chuzheng had approached him: “Do you want some chocolate?”

“No, no thanks,” Jih Cheng said a bit warily, shaking his head.

“Oh.”

Chuzheng turned and walked away.

Jih Cheng breathed a sigh of relief; chocolate must not be eaten carelessly, for after eating it, you’d have to be… underneath.

He didn’t want to be underneath!

Jih Cheng was determined to be the man on top!

The fact was that night, Jih Cheng still didn’t turn the tables.

–

“Is this the place?”

“This is the place.”

The security guard in the reception room couldn’t help but speak up after seeing the two people outside acting sneaky for a while, “Who are you looking for?”

Everyone living here is a person of significance, and these two, dressed in such a sloppy manner, didn’t look any good at all.

“Hey, young man, I want to ask about someone.” The woman approached, “Do you have someone named Xu Chuzheng living here?”

Xu Chuzheng…

The wasteful scion who throws around money?

The security guard thought for a moment and immediately said, “Sorry, ma’am, we have rules here, I can’t disclose the privacy of our residents. If you’re looking for someone, you can make a phone call, and if the host gives us a heads-up, you’ll be allowed in.”

“No, I just want to know if Xu Chuzheng lives here, just tell me that.”

“I can’t do that.”

The two weren’t strangers, they were Father Xu and Mother Xu.

Since the security guard wouldn’t tell them, they squatted outside, and the security, unsure of who they were, made a phone call to Chuzheng’s place.

Chuzheng said she would be back in a moment.

Who knew that Jih Cheng would return first and be recognized by Father Xu and Mother Xu.

Jih Cheng’s car was stopped by the two of them.

Mother Xu smiled eagerly, “What a promising young man, very good, oh yes, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Chuzheng’s mother, and this is Chuzheng’s father.”

Jih Cheng, of course, recognized them.

“Uncle, Auntie, is there something you need?” Jih Cheng politely asked.

“Oh, it’s like this, we’re looking for Chuzheng. The child has been away from home for so many years without even a phone call, we are so worried.”

Jih Cheng: “…”

Hadn’t they severed all ties?

When you took the money back then, you did it so decisively, and now you start playing the emotional card again.

“Young man, maybe you could take us upstairs first, we just want to see Chuzheng.” Mother Xu and Father Xu hadn’t expected their daughter to be so capable.

Jih Cheng dared not make that decision: “I’ll call Baby and ask, please wait a moment.”

Jih Cheng returned to his car to call Chuzheng.

Chuzheng didn’t answer, so Jih Cheng hung up and kept calling.

On the third attempt, Jih Cheng heard a car approaching from behind, he glanced in the rearview mirror.

Chuzheng had already gotten out of her car.

Jih Cheng hurriedly got out.

“Are you okay?” Chuzheng glanced at him.

Jih Cheng shook his head, as nothing much could happen at the gate.

“Chuzheng, my daughter.” Mother Xu started crying upon seeing Chuzheng, “I’ve missed you so much over these years…”

Chuzheng interrupted her, “What are you doing here?”

“Chuzheng, what are you saying, we are your parents, of course, we came to see you.”

“What’s wrong with you, you don’t recognize your own parents now!”

Father Xu and Mother Xu took turns speaking, and since it was peak time for people returning from work, other residents who were blocked at the gate could only get out of their cars to watch.

“What’s going on?”

“Looks like she doesn’t recognize her parents?”

“Isn’t that President Xu?”

“Those are her parents?”

The whispering gave Father Xu and Mother Xu the courage: “We’ve raised you for so many years, you’re living well now, how can you just ignore us.”

“We have already severed our ties through legal means.” Chuzheng raised her hand and the lawyer who got out of the car with her handed her a document, “Do you need me to read it to you?”

“You…”

Chuzheng spoke in a calm and indifferent tone, “You took the money, agreed to sever ties with me, and now that you’re out of money, I’m your daughter again?”

Father Xu and Mother Xu originally thought that if Chuzheng refused to acknowledge them, they would make a scene, and out of concern for her reputation, she would surely give them money.

But Chuzheng brought the documents directly instead.

Father Xu and Mother Xu couldn’t make a scene, and were also left fuming.

They still had to go home and wait on Xu Shenghui, the little tyrant, regretting everything.

Of course, what they regretted was why they had severed ties with Chuzheng in the first place.

“Let’s go back to pack up, we’re moving.” Chuzheng patted Jih Cheng’s head, “Just bring what you like, we can buy everything else.”

“Then I only have one thing that I can bring.”

Chuzheng gave him a sidelong glance.

Jih Cheng smiled, “I only like you.”

The only thing I want to take with me in this life is you.
