Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Since Xu Xingguang left the Xu Family, she has to earn money even for a sip of water.

Even though she made money writing books in earlier years, she squandered almost all of those royalties. Even if she wants to sell copyrights to support herself, Xu Zeqing can suppress her, forcing her into a corner.

In short, without the Xu Family as a backing, Xu Xingguang’s life is bound to be tough.

But Xu Xingguang was destined to disappoint Xu Zeqing’s expectations. ”Sever the father-daughter relationship?”

Xu Xingguang pondered this sentence carefully, then suddenly looked up and smiled brightly at Xu Zeqing, without hesitation saying, ”Sure, let’s draft an agreement to sever the parental relationship then!

She elaborated in detail, ”Let’s put it on black and white, clearly and formally. From now on, whether I, Xu Xingguang, fall into destitution and begging, or whether I’m covered in glory, it’s got nothing to do with the Xu Family. And no matter what happens to the Xu Family, good or bad, it’s got nothing to do with me!”

Hearing this, Xu Zeqing felt shocked and stunned. ”Xu Xingguang, do you really want to sever our father-daughter relationship for this bastard?”

Xu Zeqing suddenly raised his hand to point at the silent Huo Wen’an, saying, ”Xu Xingguang, open your eyes and see clearly, this man has no redeeming qualities! If he really liked you, how could he watch as you sever ties with us?”

Xu Zeqing then walked over to Huo Wen’an and scoffed, ”I’ve seen many poor guys like you. You’re just after my daughter’s looks and the bit of money we have. You think if you trick her, have a kid, you’ll get our forgiveness and a share of the Xu Family’s assets? That you’ll turn from a wild chicken into a phoenix and live a good life?”

”Pfft!” Xu Zeqing spat on Huo Wen’an’s chest in rage, ”Xu Xingguang is a fool, letting you scheme as you please. I’m not! Don’t expect to get a penny from the Xu Family!”

Huo Wen’an frowned slightly, calmly moved Xu Zeqing’s hand away, and said quietly, ”It’s true I fancy your daughter’s looks, but I never deceived her feelings. As for your Xu Family’s wealth...”

Huo Wen’an looked up at the somewhat aged bungalow in front of him, smiling meaningfully, ”You’d better keep it to buy yourself a coffin.”

Xu Zeqing: ”...”

Listen, listen, is this even something a human would say?

You Mingyue had already experienced Huo Wen’an’s harshness. The second time they met, Huo Wen’an said he wanted to cut off her hand as a collection piece.

With such a rogue, don’t expect respect for elders.

You Mingyue looked at Xu Xingguang with pity and thought: Xu Xingguang getting together with someone like Huo is bound to end with her running back crying, kneeling in front of the Xu Family seeking forgiveness.

You Jingqiu lowered her voice to instruct You Mingyue, ”Mingyue, pay attention, when looking for a man, never look for this kind of scoundrel.”

You Mingyue nodded in full agreement.

”Are you done?” Xu Xingguang said in a flat tone, ”If you’re done, let’s draft the severance agreement. Hurry up and write, so we can sign at the police station while it’s still open.”

In Xia Country, for a father and daughter to sever their relationship, they must go to the police station and sign in the presence of an officer, surveillance, and a lawyer to be considered legal.

Xu Xingguang’s words were like a catalyst injected into Xu Zeqing’s body, causing his head to buzz. ”Fine, fine, let’s write it!”

Xu Zeqing suddenly shouted into the house, ”Jiaoyang, draft a severance agreement for parental relationship!”

You Jiaoyang finally walked out of the house slowly.

Standing beside Xu Zeqing, he hesitantly glanced at Huo Wen’an, then said to Xu Zeqing, ”Uncle Xu, Xingguang is your only biological daughter; when it comes to severing the relationship, I suggest you consider it carefully.”

”After all, some decisions, once made, are irrevocable.”

Xu Zeqing had long been blinded by anger, how could he consider anything else? ”What’s the use of keeping such a scoundrel, if she dares to sever ties, then so be it!”

”I’d like to see how high she can fly without the Xu Family’s help!”

Seeing Xu Zeqing make up his mind, You Jiaoyang asked Xu Xingguang, ”Are you sure you want to sever ties with Uncle Xu?”

”Yes.” Xu Xingguang was calm, rational.

You Jiaoyang said nothing more.

He said, ”Wait a few minutes, I’ll go print the document.”

You Jiaoyang quickly printed a severance agreement in triplicate, one copy each for Xu Xingguang and Xu Zeqing, and the last copy to be kept on file at the police station.
