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

Chapter 5 Mother's Attitude
When Su Yurao said this, the expression on her face did not change at all, as if the person she was scolding was not her biological son.

The people in the Xie family have become accustomed to Su Yurao's attitude.

Ever since Xie Chen was found, Su Yurao has never given Xie Chen a good look. Even though Xie Chen tried his best to please her, Su Yurao's attitude towards Xie Chen was extremely cold.

On the contrary, Su Yurao gave full favor to Xie Ci, who was taken away by mistake, and showed all her good looks to Xie Ci.

"Mom, are you tired? Have you had dinner? I'll ask Sister Zhang to heat up some Tremella soup for you, and I'll bring it to you, okay?" Xie Ci observed Su Yurao's expression, stepped forward to rub her shoulders, and said considerately.

Su Yurao smiled, "Okay, our Ah Ci is thoughtful."

Xie Ci turned around to help Su Yurao serve the Tremella soup. Xie Min answered a phone call and went out with her bag.

Xie Ling went upstairs without saying a word, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Xie Ming sat on the sofa for a while, looking at Su Yurao who was eating Tremella soup elegantly across the sofa and looking at Xie Ci with tenderness. For some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Xie Ci glanced at Xie Ming, and immediately stood up and poured a cup of tea for Xie Ming, "Dad, have a cup of tea to calm down."

Xie Ming looked up at the well-behaved and sensible Xie Ci, his eyes full of relief, "Okay."

His own biological son is not as loving as the one he adopted by mistake. What’s the use of a biological son?

Seeing the relief in Xie Ming's eyes, Xie Ci also smiled, but if you look closely, you can see that Xie Ci's smile does not contain any emotion at all.

Su Yurao, who was eating Tremella soup, looked up at the father and son who were getting along well with each other, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and then her eyes looked out the window.

……

Xie Chen came out of the restaurant and went back to school.

Xie Chen attends a key middle school in Jingzhou. Unlike Xie Ci, Xie Chen got in based on his own strength, while Xie Ci relied on his financial resources.

Xie Ci was worried that Xie Chen would steal the limelight, so he kept spreading rumors that Xie Chen had poor grades and was able to enter a key middle school only because of the Xie family's reputation.

After saying it so many times, everyone in the Xie family believed it. Xie Chen was able to attend a key high school only because of the Xie family's reputation.

But they didn't think about it. They had never even made Xie Chen's identity public. How could the school accept Xie Chen for the sake of the Xie family?
At school, Xie Ci is recognized by everyone as the young master of the Xie family, while Xie Chen is just a poor guy with the same surname as Xie Ci!
Xie Chen returned to the campus with his schoolbag and found the accommodation area.

In the year when Xie Chen was first found by the Xie family, because the Xie family was worried that Xie Chen's appearance would irritate Xie Ci, Xie Chen lived in the school for half a year.

Later, Xie Ci saw that Xie Chen was doing nothing but studying at school. He was afraid that Xie Chen would spend all his time on studying and would be too outstanding, which would threaten his position in the Xie family. So he hypocritically let Xie Chen return to live in the Xie family.

After returning to the Xie family, Xie Ci found trouble for him every few days, framed him, and sowed discord among him, causing everyone in the Xie family to misunderstand him and hate him.

Xie Chen explained, but no one believed him.

Being a stubborn person, he simply gave up explaining.

As time went by, the misunderstandings with the Xie family grew deeper and deeper, and the relationship became worse and worse, gradually reaching a point of no return.

"It's all over." Xie Chen let out a long breath, and felt a dull pain in his ribs. "From now on, I don't need to explain to anyone, nor do I need to please anyone."

Xie Chen carried his schoolbag and rushed into the dormitory building.

Although Xie Chen moved to the Xie family, his things in the dormitory were still there, which made it convenient for him to come over for a nap at noon.

As Xie Chen appeared at the dormitory door, his deskmate Bai Ji came out of the dormitory carrying a basin of dirty clothes. Seeing Xie Chen, Bai Ji was surprised.

"Xie Chen, are you staying in the dormitory tonight?" Bai Ji was a little uncertain. He remembered that Xie Chen's home seemed to be in the city, unlike his home in the lower county, so it was more convenient to stay there.

"Well, I will live in the dormitory from now on." Xie Chen nodded to Bai Ji. "That's great. You will be with me during the evening self-study. I can ask you questions again!" Bai Ji smiled naively. "Your bed has not been slept in for a long time. Do you want me to wash your sheets and replace them with mine?"

"No thanks. I'll just make do with it for one night and go out and buy a new one tomorrow." Xie Chen politely declined Bai Ji's kindness.

"Okay, you go back to the dormitory and pack up first, I'll go do the laundry, and then we'll go to evening self-study together later." Bai Ji said happily.

Xie Chen hummed, turned around and started to make his bed.

As soon as he bent down, he felt a sharp pain in his ribs, and Xie Chen couldn't help but frowned.

This was truly his biological father. He kicked him so hard that his ribs were broken and he suffocated. He had to start over in this life.

After adjusting his breathing and waiting for the pain to subside, Xie Chen slowly straightened up and continued to make the bed.

Because he didn't live in the dormitory often, his bed was full of other students' things. Xie Chen took a stool and put those things on it.

These things were not heavy, but moving them with injuries still made Xie Chen’s face turn pale quickly.

The college entrance examination is only one month away, and now everyone wants to divide their time into eight parts. After eating in the cafeteria, everyone goes to the classroom for evening self-study. Besides him, the only person in the dormitory is Bai Ji, who is washing clothes in the bathroom.

The quilt was a little damp and didn't feel very comfortable to the touch, but after severing ties with the Xie family, it was already pretty good to have a place to stay, so Xie Chen wasn't picky.

There is still one month left before the college entrance examination, and after that it will be summer vacation.

Where he will live during the two months of summer vacation is also a problem.

Living in a dormitory is not a long-term solution and can only be regarded as a transition for a period of time.

He has to buy a house of his own as soon as possible.

The money he got from Xie Ci was enough for him to spend for a while, but not enough to buy a house.

Making money has also become a top priority.

In his new life, Xie Chen has the memory of his previous life, so he has many opportunities to make money.

Xie Chen made the bed and Bai Ji finished washing the clothes.

"Let's go, Xie Chen, to the evening self-study class!" Bai Ji called to Xie Chen.

Xie Chen hummed, then went out with Bai Ji, carrying his schoolbag.

However, because his ribs were still aching, Xie Chen walked a little slowly.

"Xie Chen, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell?" Bai Ji stared at Xie Chen's face for a while and spoke suspiciously.

Xie Chen smiled and said, "It's okay."

Bai Ji was just his classmate, and he would notice that his face looked abnormal.

But he had lived in the Xie family for so many years, and when he was sick, no one ever cared whether he was feeling unwell or not...

"Xie Chen, if you feel uncomfortable, don't force yourself. The college entrance examination is coming soon. If you break your body at this critical moment, it will not be worth it!" Bai Ji said seriously with a stern face, "I'll accompany you to the school clinic for a check-up!"

Xie Chen was about to refuse, but Bai Ji came forward to pull him away.

It would have been fine if Bai Ji didn't pull him, but when Bai Ji pulled him, his ribs hurt even more, and Xie Chen immediately gasped.
