119 Bloodshed

“Chase a debt?” First Elder was so angry that he laughed. “What does she want to chase?”

The pageboy staggered backward in fear. “S-She says that you haven’t given her things you promised to give in the agreement you signed when splitting the family assets previously… She also wants to claim the dowry her mother brought when she married into the family…”

The pageboy’s words shocked First Elder because he had almost forgotten about it. That day, he was driven to his grave by Chu Liuyue and did not even look at the details before signing the agreement.

After thinking about it now, the items he agreed to give to her were worth a huge sum of money. Just the dowry that Chu Liuyue’s mother gave to them alone was worth an extravagant amount. If he really returned all of the items to Chu Liuyue, the Chu family would lose a lot of money.

First Elder staggered backward in frustration as he glanced at the scattered account books on the table in the corner of his eyes. This put him in an even worse mood. The Chu family was currently losing money, and taking out this sum of money was akin to adding oil to the fire.

Why is Chu Liuyue so thick-skinned, daring to come to our residence and demand the items directly?

“First Elder, you should hurry up and go take a look. Chu Liuyue says that if she doesn’t get the money today, she’s not leaving… They have already blocked the entire gate…”

The Chu family looked like they ran a big business on the surface, but they were very greedy on the inside.

“Yes, yes! The dowry is yours! Other people shouldn’t take it. You must get it back!”

“Exactly! The Chu family is one of the four biggest families. It’s too much if they refuse to return you the dowry.”

“That’s true… If the Chu family really does that, they’re shameless.”

The crowd broke into discussions, and First Elder’s face turned green. He hollered, “Chu Liuyue, what are you doing?”

Chu Liuyue looked over and lazily glanced at him. “Oh, Chu First Elder, don’t you know what I’m doing here? Previously, you agreed to split the family assets and claimed that you’d send the things that belonged to my father and me to us. However, nobody showed up after such a long wait. I didn’t even see the items’ shadows. I thought that you were probably too busy and didn’t have time to arrange trivial matters like this, so I specifically brought some people over.”

Chu Liuyue raised her hand and pointed at the few people behind her. “These two are Zhen Bao Pavilion’s managers, and they’re very proficient at reading through account books. They’ll help us check on the assets later and will definitely not miss anything out. These four people are Zhen Bao Pavilion’s pageboys, and they’re very strong. Therefore, they can help carry the items away, and we won’t bother the Chu family members. Chu First Elder, what do you think of this arrangement?”

First Elder was so angry that he could not say a word. This Chu Liuyue has it all planned out. She brought people along with her to block the gate and is determined to bring those items away. If I do not accede to her request, she will directly snatch the items away from me.

“How dare you! This is the Chu family residence, not somewhere that you can mess around in.”
