Kapitel 4: 004 Want to fight? You're still too green!
Madam Song Yu scoffed disdainfully, "Chu Nanxi, just because Li Hannian took a fancy to you doesn't mean you can get all high and mighty!"
"Exactly, acting like the Young Madam before even setting foot in the door?!" Chu Nanya's tone was filled with venom, "Who knows, by tomorrow morning, he might grow bored and send you right back!"
Chu Nanya was a student at the Music Academy and had always idolized Li Hannian.
Today, she was furious beyond words to have him snatched away by Chu Nanxi, whom she regarded as a jester.
Chu Nanxi just shrugged her shoulders at the malicious words from the mother and daughter.
"At least... he's willing to play with me!"
"You..."
That one statement left the mother and daughter choking with nothing to say.
"Enough!" Chu Wenhui barked at his wife and daughter, his gaze authoritatively landing on Chu Nanxi's face, "This matter concerns the future of the Chu Family, and you're not allowed to throw a childish tantrum. Get yourself ready and behave once you're at the Li Family."
Without this marriage alliance, Chu Wenhui was indeed immensely disappointed.
However, there was no other choice at the moment but to send the girl over in exchange for Li Hannian's investment.
"You always say I'm not a member of the Chu Family; what does the Chu Family's future have to do with me!" Chu Nanxi slung her backpack over her shoulder, "If the shares aren't transferred to my name by the time I return... I'll head back to M-country tonight."
"You're out of line!" Chu Nanya, who happened to be standing beside the sofa, stepped forward to block her path, "Being chosen to represent the Chu Family in a marriage alliance is an honor, you'll go today whether you like it or not!"
Chu Nanxi didn't even stop her steps.
Chu Nanya, infuriated, reached out with her right hand to grab her arm.
Just as her fingertips were about to clutch Chu Nanxi's sleeve, the latter suddenly turned her scarred face with a flash of coldness in her left eye.
A right foot extended, hooked, and pulled.
Bang!
The floor thudded as Chu Nanya crashed onto it spread-eagled, crying out in pain.
Looking down from above at Chu Nanya, Chu Nanxi nonchalantly slid her hands back into her pockets.
The lean and frail girl replaced her prior laziness with the sharpness and coldness of unsheathed blades in her eyes.
"Want to fight? You're still too green!"
"Nanya!"
...
Madam Song Yu and Chu Nanyue cried out as they rushed over, both helping Chu Nanya up, while Chu Nanxi had already walked out of the foyer.
"Wenhui, say something, will you? Are you just going to let her go like this?" Madam Song Yu demanded angrily.
Chu Wenhui's gaze settled on his wife, his tone slightly irritated, "She won the free-fighting championship back in high school, how could we possibly stop her?"
"No matter how tough she is, she's just a girl, and I refuse to believe that several of us can't subdue her!" Chu Wenjie retorted.
"Don't forget, we're sending her to marry into the Li Family this time. What if she causes trouble there?" Chu Wenhui countered.
At that, everyone was at a loss for words.
This child grew up rebellious and defiant with her father abroad, and even if they could somehow send her to the Li Family, they had no way to ensure she'd obediently toe the line.
If she caused trouble at the Li Family, it was likely to backfire.
Ever since the patriarch fell ill, Chu Film Industry had been on the decline for the past two years.
This time, the investment in a movie by the two brothers had failed, not only causing the loss of an investment of over a hundred million but also leaving them nearly seventy million in debt. If they couldn't fill this hole, the Chu Film Industry might well fall into irreversible decline.
