Who gave the Zhao clan chief the audacity to ask her to return to the clan?
Did he really think that she was just a cash cow?

"That's your maiden family?" Yuan Hui asked. "Chuchu, how did you manage to be so cold-hearted toward them?"
"Because they almost killed me back then. That's why I made up my mind to sever all ties with them. I won't care about what happens to them, and I don't care what others say about me. As long as you can do that, you can be cold-hearted as well."
Yuan Hui sighed and shook her head. "I can't do that. I've been taught since childhood that women must take good care of their reputations. I admire how free you are, but I definitely can't be like you."
