After I left home with a broken heart, my whole family begged me to come back

Chapter 3 It turns out that he never got anything

They all knew that Xie Chen lived in the servants' room.

But they never knew that the room Xie Chen lived in was so... shabby.

There is only a bed and a desk in the room.

The quilt on the bed was thin and old, but Xie Chen had folded it neatly into a tofu block.

There was no extra decoration on the desk except the extracurricular books that Xie Chen usually read.

The room was completely empty and one could see the inside at a glance. Even a mouse would shed tears if it came into such a room.

Xie Ling was stunned. She hated Xie Chen, so since Xie Chen entered the Xie family, she had never set foot in Xie Chen's room.

Compared with the magnificent Xie Ci's room, Xie Chen's room was as shabby as a slum.

"Is this Xie Chen's room?" Xie Min widened her eyes, full of disbelief.

She knew that Xie Chen lived in the servants' room, but the servants' room in the Xie family shouldn't be so shabby, right?
Xie Ling said nothing, strode into the room and opened Xie Chen's closet.

If there is any place to hide things, it is this closet.

I opened the wardrobe, but it was still empty.

All the clothes from spring, summer, autumn and winter combined cannot fill even a corner of the closet.

"There are no cufflinks here." Xie Ling's face looked a little ugly. "Maybe... he took them away..."

Xie Min didn't say anything. Xie Ci, who followed her, looked at everything in the room in surprise. "Brother Xie Chen, are you short of money? That's why you exchanged my cufflinks for money..."

The trace of guilt that Xie Ling had just felt was dispelled by Xie Ci's words, "That must be the case!"

"The Xie family has never thought of treating him harshly. He just didn't know how to tell us." Xie Ling comforted himself.

Xie Min tilted her head to glance at Xie Ci and said nothing.

At this moment, an extremely strange feeling of guilt arose in her heart.

……

The first thing Xie Chen did after leaving Xie's house was to take a taxi and go straight to the nearest bank, withdraw all the money from the card that Xie Ci gave him, and then deposit it into his own card.

He knew better than anyone what kind of person Xie Ci was. Xie Ci was pretending to give him the money as a gift to put on a show for the Xie family.

When Xie Ci has time, the first thing he will do is report the card lost!

Since Xie Chen asked Xie Ci to pretend to be a good person in front of the Xie family, Xie Ci cannot get the money in the card back.

Xie Ci had quite a lot of pocket money, a full 100,000 yuan. After depositing the money into his card, Xie Chen felt a little more at ease.

If he wanted to do it all over again, he didn't want to rely on anyone, so he had to have enough financial strength.

Making money is a must.

In addition, he is now in his senior year of high school and will take the college entrance examination in one month. In this last month, he has to make a sprint.

Although there is no family affection, it does not mean that there is no hope in life.

Even in darkness, he will live towards the sun.

He doesn't want to see the Xie family members on the road ahead, but he also wants to walk this road beautifully.

After coming out of the bank, Xie Chen found a restaurant.

When I got home from school, I was harassed by people from the Xie family and kicked by Xie Ming. Now, in addition to the pain in my ribs, I am also a little hungry.

The ribs are probably fractured. As long as you don't do strenuous exercise in the near future, it should be healed after a month of rest.

Xie Chen sat in the restaurant and ordered some home-cooked dishes.

During all these years in the Xie family, he had never had a full meal. Eating with the servants made him extremely uncomfortable. The Xie family also provided a fixed amount of food for the servants. If he ate more, the servants would have to eat less.

Xie Chen was still the young master of the Xie family after all, and he couldn't do such a thing as snatching food from the servants. Now that he had left the Xie family, he could finally eat without restraint for once.

While Xie Chen was eating, his mind was recalling everything from his previous life.

He was still three months away from turning eighteen. In his previous life, he had a car accident because the goddess he had a crush on asked him out.

He was not sure whether the car accident was an accident or a deliberate murder.

Was the goddess he secretly loved an important part of his death in his previous life...

I was absorbed in thinking about something when my vision suddenly went dark.

There was already someone sitting opposite.

Xie Chen looked up and saw Lu Yuanyuan.

The eldest daughter of the Lu family, with extremely beautiful facial features, a hot body, and a cold personality, she is as beautiful as a rose with thorns. She is the recognized goddess in the school and the secret crush of many boys.

But, Xie Chen is an exception. Xie Chen’s goddess is the top student Song Xue.

A quiet and well-behaved little white flower, born in a poor family, but self-reliant.

"Alone?" Lu Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows and glanced casually at Xie Chen's cuffs.

Unfortunately, she didn’t see what she wanted to see in the school uniform Xie Chen was wearing.

"Yeah." Xie Chen hummed lightly.

Lu Yuanyuan and he belong to different worlds, and he doesn't want to have too much interaction with Lu Yuanyuan.

After all, Xie Ci and Lu Yuanyuan were having an ambiguous relationship, and he didn't want to provoke that mad dog.

"Things... do you still like them?" Lu Yuanyuan suddenly asked without any context.

Xie Chen was stunned for a moment, looking confused, "What?"

"The cufflinks I gave you." Lu Yuanyuan was a man of swift and decisive character, and could not hide anything.

It had been a while since she gave the cufflinks away, but she had never seen Xie Chen wear them.

Does this mean he doesn't like her, or did he throw away the things she gave him?

"The cufflinks you gave me?" Xie Chen's tone was a little subtle, and he showed an expression of disbelief.

In his previous life, why had he never heard Lu Yuanyuan say that the cufflinks were given to him?

Could it be that in this life, severing ties with the Xie family could trigger a butterfly effect?
"Yes, if it's not for you, who else can I give it to?" Lu Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows, crossed her arms across her chest, and acted like a queen. "In the whole school, only you, Xie Chen, can catch my eye."

Xie Chen just found it extremely funny.

Xie Ci slandered himself for stealing the cufflinks that Lu Yuanyuan gave him, but now, Lu Yuanyuan came to him and said that the cufflinks were originally given to him.

Seeing Xie Chen's bewildered expression, Lu Yuanyuan slowly narrowed her eyes, "Could it be that you didn't receive it?"

If she had known this, she would have given it directly to Xie Chen instead of sending it to the Xie family...

Xie Chen shook his head, "I received your thanks."

Lu Yuanyuan's expression suddenly changed, "I'm giving it to you, not to him!"

But soon, Lu Yuanyuan realized that he had probably made a mistake.

Because the letters on the cufflinks are XC.

The initials of Xie Chen and Xie Ci are the same.

Lu Yuanyuan pursed her lips. She finally mustered up the courage to give a boy a gift, but in the end... she gave it to the wrong person?
If she hadn't happened to meet Xie Chen in this restaurant today, and she had finally mustered up the courage to approach Xie Chen, would this misunderstanding have continued to exist?
No wonder Xie Ci has been pestering her all this time. Could it be that he thinks she is interested in him?
"It's not important anymore." Xie Chen said calmly, "I have left the Xie family now and have nothing to do with them anymore. If you let this misunderstanding continue, it will be good for both the Xie family and the Lu family."
