Someone beside him immediately chimed in, “That’s right, this isn’t a simple matter. If this painting had really come from Master Nanshan, she wouldn’t have given it to you!”
When Xu Wanwan heard this, she turned to look at the Study Committee Member calmly. “This painting has Master Nanshan’s signature on it. It was also handed to me personally by Master. There’s no need to fake it.”
“So what if it’s signed?” The Study Committee Member said unhappily, “These things can still be faked.”
“You have no evidence, and you haven’t even seen Master Nanshan’s original painting. How can you measure the authenticity of this painting?”
“Anyway, if this painting is really worth thirty million, you can’t just give it away casually.”
Xu Wanwan couldn’t be bothered to argue with him and said unhappily, “Are you done?”
“Are you the only one allowed to speak in this class? Don’t we all have the right to speak?”
“No, I just think that you’re very noisy,” Xu Wanwan said calmly. “Please leave me alone.”
The Study Committee Member snorted. “Did everyone see that? She’s just anxious! She’s anxious because she’s holding a counterfeit!”
It was not enough for him to slander her in front of everyone, he even turned to Lin Jianan and said, “She must be lying to you. I advise you not to be friends with such a hypocritical person.”
“Chen Zhigang, you are so annoying!”
Lin Jianan was extremely displeased and growled, “So what if it’s fake? Since this painting was given to me by Wanwan, even if it’s not valuable, I’ll still like it very much.’
“Do you think that everyone in the world is as snobbish as you? You must be really anxious if you don’t get any benefits. You came here to embarrass yourself like a clown!”
Lin Jianan was a person who was easily angered. She did not want to waste her breath on these people. But since they wanted to pester her, she would not stand on ceremony.
The Study Committee Member was furious. “Lin Jianan, have you forgotten that the Lin family still has business relations with our family? Is it necessary for you to shed all pretense in front of me for such a hypocrite?”
“You’re the hypocrite! I think you’re the most hypocritical person in the world!”
Lin Jianan said rudely, “If you dare to say anything bad about Wanwan again, at worst, I’ll ask my father to cancel the cooperation with your family.”
“You!” No matter how unhappy Chen Zhigang was, he had to shut up this time.
No matter what, the Lin family still had some power. If he were to really offend Lin Jianan, their family’s business would be in trouble.
However, on the day of the banquet, he would definitely embarrass Xu Wanwan in front of everyone!
After school in the afternoon, Xu Wanwan packed her school bag and was about to go back when she suddenly received a call from Xu Yuchu.
She picked up the call and heard the anxious voice of the teen from inside—
“Sister, they found out where I live and want to bring me back. If I don’t want to go back, they will tear my books and destroy my things. What should I do?” Xu Wanwan maintained her calm tone. “Wait for a while. I’ll be right there,”
She hung up the phone and took a taxi to Xu Yuchu’s place.
Halfway there, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to handle the Xu family. After some hesitation, she called Li Jingran and explained the situation.
“Don’t worry. I’ll send a few people to go with you.”
A man’s voice filled with a sense of security sounded from the other end of the phone. “I can’t leave for the time being. I’ll come pick you up when I’m done.”
Xu Wanwan nodded. “Okay!”
After hanging up the phone, Li Jingran took out ten bodyguards and asked them to rush to Xu Yuchu’s house.
The ten bodyguards by his side were all top-notch experts. They were enough to deal with a few people from the Xu family.
When Xu Wanwan rushed to Xu Yuchu’s place, the house was already in a mess.
The originally neat and clean living room was a mess. The ground was littered with torn pieces of paper. Through the torn book cover, she could see that it was Xu Yuchu’s high school textbook.
“Sis!”
When Xu Yuchu saw that Xu Wanwan was there, he ran to her side as if he had seen a life-saving straw.
When Xu Wanwan saw the sudden palm print on his face, her pupils constricted. “Did they hit you?”
Xu Yuchujust lowered her head and did not say anything else.
Only Sun Yuelan and Xu Yue were in the room. They only knew that Xu Wanwan had arrived when they heard her voice. The two of them turned around at the same time.
“Xu Wanwan, you still dare to come here!”
Sun Yuelan had a stomach full of anger. She rushed forward and argued, “Your brother was so obedient before. Now that you’ve instigated a rift between us, look at what he’s become now.”
Xu Wanwan narrowed her eyes slightly. Her tone was filled with coldness. “Why did Xu Yuchu become like this? You should be asking yourselves!”
“He used to be sensible and obedient, but did you know that he was bullied at school? When his good sister sent people to bump into him for her own benefit, did you stand by his side and speak for him?”
Even as an outsider, Xu Wanwan felt extremely angry. Her voice became colder and colder, “It takes more than one cold day for a river to freeze by three feet. Now, Yuchu is not willing to go home with you because he suffers from severe depression. If he returns to a family where he does not feel loved, it will only have a greater impact on his health!”
Sun Yuelan remained indifferent after hearing that. “Depression? How did our Xu family let him down? We fed him well and spent money to send him to study abroad. It’s because his life is too good that he suffers from depression.”
“Mom, don’t talk about Yuchu like that. He’s always been obedient. Even if he’s sick, he would definitely want to go home,” Xu Yue said deliberately. “But now, he might have been deceived by someone. He doesn’t even want to go home anymore.”
Although she didn’t mention Xu Wanwan by name, the meaning behind her words was clear.
Sun Yuelan was furious when she heard that. She stepped forward and pushed Xu Wanwan away. “Didn’t you say that the matters of the Xu family have nothing to do with you? I have no choice but to bring Xu Yuchu back now. This is none of your business!”
Xu Wanwan staggered a few steps back after being pushed, bumping into a coffee table and almost falling.
She couldn’t help but frown. “What are you doing?”
Sun Yuelan grabbed Xu Yuchu’s arm. “Come, follow me home!”
“I don’t want to!”
Xu Yuchu broke free from her hand and took a few steps back. He stood beside Xu Wanwan. “From now on, that’s your home. It has nothing to do with me.”
“You! How can you say such things!”
Sun Yuelan was choked with anger. She stepped forward and gave Xu Yuchu a hard slap.
A crisp slap sounded in the room. Xu Yuchu’s other face instantly turned red and swollen. He tilted his head, and traces of blood could be seen on the edge of his lips.
Sun Yuelan seemed to feel that the lesson was not enough. She raised her hand and was about to hit him again. Xu Wanwan took a step forward and grabbed her wrist. “I advise you to stop.”
“I gave birth to you and you still dare to control me?”
“Xu Yuchu doesn’t want to go home with you. I advise you to leave quickly.”
“Sister, let go of Mom.” Xu Yue looked innocent. “It’s not easy for Mom to control this family. She just wants Yuchu to go home with us. What’s wrong with that?”
Xu Wanwan glared at her coldly. She really did not know where she got the face to say these things.
If she hadn’t caused a car accident to harm Xu Yuchu, there wouldn’t be so many things happening now.
Her tone was firm. “You’d better give up on the idea of taking him away, or I won’t be polite either. “.
