Chapter 3: Entrepreneurship, Making Money, Cutting Ties

“What do you mean? Cutting ties? Are you capable of that now? Trying to truly anger me and your mother?” Xu Deming heard himself and felt he was right. With a sudden rage, he scolded Xu Mo again, “You are indeed unruly, full of faults. Who taught you to write these things?”

Xu Mo couldn’t be bothered to argue with him and simply handed him the pen.

This made Xu Deming even more furious, shaking with anger. “Alright, alright! You rebellious child really want to provoke us! Let’s see where you can go! You want to cut ties? Fine, cut ties! Without our Xu family, you are nothing! I’ll see how long you can be stubborn!”

Xu Deming, feeling choked with anger, thought Xu Mo was just trying to scare him. Without hesitation, he promptly wrote down his name.

Xu Mo was overjoyed, retrieved the document of separation, and also signed his own name, saying, “One copy for each party, two for you both, one for me! Goodbye!”

Taking back his own copy of the separation document, he grabbed his suitcase and turned to leave.

“Young Master Mo! Where are you going?” Zhao Ma was shocked.

She had been closest to Xu Mo in the Xu household, often doing chores together.

Zhao Ma realized that this time Xu Mo was serious.

“Don’t call him! This rebellious child is infuriating me!” Xu Deming was enraged at the sight of Xu Mo leaving.

Xu Mo glanced back and smiled at Zhao Ma, saying, “Don’t worry about me, Zhao Ma! Farewell for now!”

With his suitcase in tow, Xu Mo didn’t hesitate as he turned and left the grand Xu residence!

The moment he stepped out of the Xu residence, he felt an immense sense of relief!

From now on, he wouldn’t have to deal with the people from the Xu family. He could go out and earn money, do whatever he wanted to do. Whatever he desired, he could pursue it.

Xu Mo felt that over the years, he had devoted so much effort to the people of the Xu family that he had almost forgotten about himself. It was like feeding a dog.

…

As Xu Mo disappeared with his suitcase, the living room of the Xu residence fell into silence.

Second Elder Sister Xu Xuehui and Third Elder Sister Xu Manni never expected this outcome.

However, Xu Manni also thought that Xu Mo was just trying to scare them, and she sneered, “This Xu Mo, trying to scare us, thinking we’ll beg him to come back? It’s just ridiculous! He probably wants some benefits! Let’s see if he doesn’t come crawling back on his own later!”

Second Elder Sister Xu Xuehui also chuckled, “Third Sister is right. Xu Mo definitely wants to gain some benefits and definitely can’t leave our Xu family! Back then, he almost broke his neck trying to squeeze into our Xu family. How could he leave so easily? This time, he’s just trying to pressure us!”

Upon seeing Second Sister’s agreement, Third Sister Xu Manni immediately smiled at Xie Bingyan and Xu Deming, “Dad, Mom, don’t worry! In a few days, he’ll definitely come crawling back! He doesn’t have much money on him and won’t last long!”

Xie Bingyan, who was initially anxious, felt relieved upon hearing her daughter’s words. She gritted her teeth and said angrily, “If he comes back next time, none of you should pay him any attention! If I don’t fix him this time, my surname won’t be Xie!”

With that, she looked at Xu Deming again. “Old Xu, your son is beyond redemption! If you don’t discipline him soon, he’ll be completely useless!”

Xu Deming frowned upon hearing this.

“Mom! I also think that Brother was just angry for a moment! He’ll definitely come back tomorrow! But Brother might hate me, thinking I took his things. Otherwise, why would he slander me and say I burned Mom’s dress?” Xu Junzhe said, feeling ecstatic as Xu Mo left.

Seeing her adopted son looking so obedient, Xie Bingyan was overjoyed. She hugged his head and said with a smile, “Our Junzhe is so well-behaved, unlike some people who don’t listen to anything! If he comes back tomorrow, don’t give him a good face! We’ve already given him face. If he wants to sever ties, let him!”

“Yes!”

Xu Deming, however, felt that something was amiss as he looked at the document and the bloodstains on the table, feeling increasingly uneasy.

On the floor of the living room, there was still a large puddle of blood from Xu Mo’s earlier fall.

Zhao Ma, seeing this, had already come over with a mop to clean it up.

She looked at the group of people in the house and let out a heavy sigh.

She naturally knew what kind of life Xu Mo had been living in the Xu family during this time.

He seemed to be living in a mansion, but in reality, it was like living in hell. His parents were distant, and his sisters didn’t like him. He desperately tried to please everyone, but all his efforts were in vain.

This time, Young Master Mo’s departure was probably not just a momentary anger but a well-prepared decision.

He’s probably never coming back!

Xu Deming frowned upon hearing Zhao Ma’s sigh.

“This rebellious son, even with a head wound, he won’t go get it treated! Zhao Ma, go inform Uncle Li and have him follow Xu Mo, see where he’s staying. Does he need to go to the hospital?”

“Xu Deming, why do you still bother with him? He’s just trying to provoke us for his own gain! If I don’t deal with his temper this time, my surname isn’t Xie!” Xie Bingyan said angrily, gritting her teeth.

“Don’t be angry, Mom, it’s bad for your health!” Xu Junzhe hurriedly comforted her upon seeing her anger.

“Alright, I won’t get angry!” Xie Bingyan said hastily, then turned to Xu Deming and said, “You’re not allowed to interfere anymore. When he comes back tomorrow, you’ll see how I handle him!”

Seeing this, Xu Deming could only nod, not wanting to dwell on it too much.

After all, in his mind, Xu Mo really couldn’t leave the Xu family.

Back when he was first brought back to the Xu family, how much Xu Mo fawned over everyone? He annoyed all the daughters to no end, either bringing meals to one or snacks to another every day. All six daughters found him disgusting and scheming, refusing to eat anything he made.

Now, suddenly leaving like this, how could it be so easy?

…

Xu Mo settled his luggage in the house he rented, also buying a blanket and a mat, laying them on his bed, feeling incredibly comfortable.

Next, according to the plan, he would focus on training his body.

Then write the questions.

The college entrance examination was only two months away, approaching rapidly. Studying had become extremely intense lately.

Although Xu Mo wasn’t worried about his academic performance, having worked hard over the years, he still feared unexpected circumstances and needed to continue improving.

As for his physical condition, he had been malnourished in the Xu family mansion, emaciated and skeletal. Now that he had left, he needed to replenish himself to face the challenges ahead.

When he suddenly died of a heart attack, his “dear younger brother Xu Junzhe” had tampered with something, something very discreet, directly causing his death.

Afterward, he lived in Xiahai City for twenty years as a spirit, witnessing many things as well as the rise and fall of the Xu family.

Without a doubt, his “dear younger brother Xu Junzhe” was undoubtedly a terrifying individual. Xu Mo had never encountered anyone as sinister and insidious as him.

He endured for a full twenty to thirty years! ^[1]Probably added the years when he was adopted

It wasn’t until twenty years after Xu Mo’s death that Xu Junzhe’s murder of Xu Mo was exposed.

It was also twenty years after Xu Mo’s death that he finally saw the tears of remorse from the so-called parents in his spirit form!
