Chapter 85: Chapter 85 Disrespect to One’s Own IQ

Without being named directly, Lin Chuxia knew Old Lady Liu was calling her.

But so what? Did she have to pay attention just because she was called?

She went upstairs without turning her head.

Old Lady Liu hadn’t expected to encounter Lin Chuxia here. After calling out twice and seeing the other party didn’t hear her, she hurriedly took a few steps to catch up, only to be stopped by the receptionist at the front desk.

"You old woman, if you have no money to stay at the hotel, why are you forcing your way in? Let me tell you, this is not a place for you to throw a fit. Be careful, or I’ll call the police and have you taken away to the station."

Old Lady Liu pointed urgently at Lin Chuxia going upstairs, "We know that girl, is she staying at your hotel? Let me go and talk to her. She can’t occupy such a big room all by herself. It should be fine for us to squeeze in with her, right?"

The receptionist had already figured out Old Lady Liu’s character. She had been arguing with her for a long time about staying without money, playing the pity card and being shameless.

Just now, Old Lady Liu had called that female comrade; at such a close distance, it was impossible not to hear her. When she was being ignored, how could she possibly let this old woman in?

"Whether you can share a room with her is not something I can decide, and I can’t let you in. Who knows if you really know each other or not. If you did, why didn’t you come together earlier? I have to be responsible for the personal safety of every guest staying here."

This delay caused Old Lady Liu to lose sight of Lin Chuxia, and in her anxiety, she tried to barge in, but the receptionist immediately called someone to drive Old Lady Liu out.

Old Lady Liu was undeterred, standing at the entrance of the guest house and yelling.

"Girl, for the sake of sharing a ride together, please be kind and let us mother and daughter stay with you for one night."

"Look how cold and dark it is outside. I, an old woman, won’t be in the way. Xiao Hua is just a kid; she can’t endure this hardship. You seem to be kind-hearted. If necessary, I can stand guard outside, and you can let Xiao Hua stay with you?"

"The incident on the train is not entirely our fault. People of poor status have short ambitions. Xiao Hua and I are both unfortunate souls. Seeing you, you seem to have good fortune and a kind heart, so please consider it a good deed." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

When Liu Xiaohua saw Lin Chuxia appear, she also felt a moment of surprise, but now seeing her mother shouting for so long without anyone coming out, she opened her mouth anxiously, "Mother, stop shouting. She doesn’t want to live with us, looks down on us, just like those people in the village who disdain us. If my brother were still alive, they wouldn’t dare to treat us like this."

Mentioning her son, Old Lady Liu sighed deeply, "Your brother was also unfortunate. Your father traded his life for an opportunity, thinking it would bring us better days. Who knew that just after a couple of good years, he left us here. Had I known this would happen, I would have asked for more money when your father died."

Liu Xiaohua looked disgusted, "We should have given the opportunity to me in the first place. My brother was just a doomed soul; giving him the chance was a waste. Now, the opportunity is gone, and so is he. Are you satisfied now?"

Old Lady Liu felt bitter in her heart. She had one son and one daughter, and it was natural to favor the son who was given such a good opportunity since a daughter is like water poured out.

But who could have known...

Seeing her daughter discontented, she quickly comforted, "What’s the use of talking about this now? You’re the only kin I have left now. Once we get there, you must stand up for yourself. Money is secondary; if you have someone to rely on, won’t you live a life of luxury without needing to look at others’ faces?"

Liu Xiaohua was full of determination, "Mother, we must get an explanation this time. If my brother died here, they have to take responsibility for us, mother and daughter, for a lifetime. It’s what they owe us."

Old Lady Liu’s eyes also became firm, "You’re right, that’s what they owe us. As long as they continue to send us money on time and arrange a good match for you, we can let this go. Otherwise, it’s not over. Even if we have to cling on here stubbornly, let’s see what they can do."

"Mother, where did you put my new clothes? I need to wear them tomorrow."
