Chapter 400: Just To Get Back at You

“He even wants your father to divorce me!” Mama Sheng laughed. “But you don’t have to be concerned. I’ll naturally handle this myself.”

“Mom, just bear with it for the moment. You would have an even greater life in the future than when you were in the Sheng family.”

“I know that, of course. I never once doubted my son’s ability.”

Sitting on the bed, Mu Qiqi could hear Sheng Xiao and Mama Sheng’s conversation, and felt a little helpless and a little guilty. “Mom is getting chased out of the family just because you left? The old man really knows how to take his anger out on others.”

“Still, I’m not surprised—it’s definitely something the old man would do.”

“What do you plan to do at Jing Ting today?”

“Xu Che will handle it.” Sheng Xiao replied, turning to look at Mu Qiqi.

“It’s clear the old man just wants to get back at you…”

“Get back at me? Heh…”

Sheng Xiao snorted in disdain towards the old man.

Since the old man loved to be so dramatic, he shall entertain him further.

***

In the morning, Xu Che received orders from Sheng Xiao to move his things from Jing Ting, accompanied by several men who appeared outstandingly strong—a caution taken against possible conflict.

Later, Old Sheng arrived at Jing Ting with his own people as well. When he saw that there were people inside, he assumed that Sheng Xiao was still staying there.

The contempt he holds grew stronger.

“Old Master Sheng, I will ask the people inside to leave.” Old Sheng’s butler who was reluctant for a direct confrontation between Sheng Xiao and the old man volunteered himself for the task.

Leaning on his crutch, the old man straightened himself in the garden of Jing Ting. “Tell those inside that they should leave with dignity since they want to go anyway. They shouldn’t be shouting to the whole wide world that they want to leave the Sheng family while taking our belongings.”

“Yes, sir.” The old butler headed inside the house, only to find that some of the movers were packing Sheng Xiao and Mu Qiqi’s belongings.

Taking a sigh of relief, the old butler asked them, “Who is in charge?”

Xu Che lowered the bundle in his hand and walked up to him. “I am. What’s the matter, sir?”

“I’m a butler of the Sheng family. We have come… to take back Jing Ting.”

Xu Che looked at the old butler for a while before saying, “I’m sorry, sir. We are only in charge of packing the former owner’s belongings. We do not have a say on who would claim this residence, which is why we would return keys and other items to the owners of this place.”

Upon hearing those words, the butler returned to the old man and told him, “Old Master, Eighth… I mean Sheng Xiao is not inside. There are only some workers packing his belongings.”

“Bring the others inside and watch them, and don’t any of them take anything belonging to the Sheng family. Who knows? Since Sheng Xiao has nothing to his name, he might try to steal from us, don’t you think?”

The old butler was stunned by the old man’s words. He really did not expect that the old man could say such words.

Such humiliating words.

“Go. Remember to take apart everything they packed up for inspection.”

“Isn’t that… not too nice?”

“Just do what I tell you!”

Those workers did not do anything wrong. Why would the old man take it out on them too?

And what good would it do him to humiliate ordinary folk like them?

Regardless, the old butler led the other lackeys into the living room and told Xu Che’s group. “I’m sorry to bother you, but we are going to open everything you’ve packed to check.”

Xu Che merely smiled in return, having a perfect understanding of Old Sheng’s purpose in coming. “What, are you afraid we would take things away from Jing Ting?”

“We’re just being cautious. I hope you could be understanding.”

“An inspection is fine, but I would have to ask you to show proof of ownership since I’ve heard that this house does not belong to the Sheng family. With that being the case, if there is no evidence shown, you have no right to question our actions.” Xu Che responded to the old butler with resoundingly strong words.

“Young man, we’re all trying to make a living… why make it hard for an old man like me?”

“You’re going to make it hard for me if I’m not making it hard for you.” Xu Che answered. “Show proof and I’ll open the boxes at once, otherwise I would have to ask that your end doesn’t bother us with our work.”

Helpless, the old butler was about to leave when Old Sheng entered and told Xu Che, “A second-rate human like you would dare to talk back to my butler? It’s how you should act in the first place—you really don’t know what’s good for you!”

“Go, men, and open those boxes!”

One of the men whom Old Sheng brought with him was about to make a move when Xu Che grabbed his arm, spraining it with the softest of touch.

“I don’t know who you are and what gives you the impression that you have power here, but I’ll make anyone interfering with my job wish they were dead.”

It was clear from Xu Che’s movement that he was a professional.

The men Old Sheng brought naturally shrank back in fear.

“Old Master… perhaps we should let this go.”

“Let this go? This is the Sheng family. No one else can have a say.”

Xu Che did not say anything to that and immediately called the police, and soon Mama Sheng’s lawyer arrived at Jing Ting with several police officers.

“Oh, so this is Old Mister Sheng. I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Not bothered to even give those two-bit officers a look, Old Sheng simply told them, “These people intend to take away belongings of the Sheng family. I’ve requested for them to open those boxes for inspection but they refused.”

“Deal with it accordingly, officers.”

The lawyer and the police traded glances. Then, the lawyer turned to share a glance with Xu Che too.

After that, he drew out a document and told the old man, “I’m sorry, Old Mister Sheng. I have been asked by my client, Fang Qin, to settle the matter regarding Jing Ting. I have with me documentations of the deed, the capital of purchase and source of said capital which evidently has nothing to do with the Sheng family. That is why your visit here today is without cause.”

The old man sneered at that. “How much money could Fang Qing have gotten from her parent’s family? Doesn’t every penny belongs to the Sheng family?”

“You could say whatever you want, but the law only recognizes documents in black and white.” The lawyer insisted. “You may be my client’s grandfather, but I would still have to inform you that you have nothing to do with this house.

“If you are determined to make trouble, I would not hold back.”

“Humph. You dare cross me even though you know who I am?” Unable to force his way through, Old Sheng tried to use his status to put pressure on the lawyer.

“I don’t care who you are. Everyone is equal before the law.” The lawyer answered firmly.

“By the way, Mister Xu, my client has also mentioned that you and the other movers may move things around as you see fit and take anything you like.”

“That’s unnecessary… my employer has said that although this house has nothing to do with the Sheng family. He is disgusted if they want it, and therefore would not need any of the worthless things inside.”

With those words, Xu Che continued packing while calling out to the other movers, “Hurry up!”
