As Wang Chao looked at the fallen Guanyin jade statue on the ground, his face darkened.
The exquisite spiritual stone!
A protective treasure!
It was a priceless treasure he specifically made for Li Han, a truly invaluable item.
He had repeatedly urged Li Han to wear it at all tis, never parting with it.
Li Han had also had this gemstone appraised and knew its value. However, she still decided to give this expensive and unique treasure to her grandmother as a sincere gift!
And now this grandmother, who was blind to its worth, actually smashed the jade!
This wasn't just shattering a stone; it was crushing Li Han's filial piety.
Anger spread through Wang Chao's chest.
He turned his head, staring at his grandmother with blazing fury.
If she wasn't his grandmother, he would have slapped her long ago.
After slamming the brocade box, her grandmother glared at Li Han, saying angrily, "I don't care about your worthless junk. Take your fake goods back, you unlucky wretch. Get lost!"
"From now on, never appear in front of again."
Li Han trembled all over, her face pale, tears streaming down as she felt overwhelming grief.
Her grandmother's actions didn't shatter the Guanyin jade statue, but it shattered her heart.
With red eyes and tear-streaked face, she looked at her grandmother and choked, "Mom, I'm also your daughter. Why haven't you cared for at all from childhood to now?"
"When I got first place in the exams, you banished to a corner to eat alone, while my siblings, who got the worst scores, were allowed to sit at the table and eat, enjoying chicken legs!"
"And I was left in the corner, eating leftovers from the previous day!"
"Whatever I did as a child, you found fault with , constantly hitting and scolding , using cruel words!"
"In the past, I didn't dare to ask, always feeling that I wasn't good enough."
"Now I want to ask you, what did I do wrong? Why did you treat this way? Why?"
She started with choked sobs, but as she continued, her voice grew more agitated, tears flowing, and she scread in desperation.
All the accumulated grievances, doubts, and humiliations from these past few decades erupted in this mont.
With courage, she stared at her grandmother with tear-filled eyes, her voice filled with sadness, despair, and a touch of pleading that moved anyone who heard it.
"Mom."
Wang Baozhu, Wang Baoyu, Wang Bin, and others hurriedly approached, pulling their mother and looking at her with concern.
Wang Anguo's eyes turned red as he embraced his wife, unable to utter a word.
He understood his wife too well!
Throughout these decades, Li Han had always longed for her grandmother's love and sought warmth within the family.
However, everyone in her grandmother's family disregarded Li Han, showing no care or affection towards her. Instead, she was constantly t with mockery, disdain, contempt, and harm.
What was even more frightening was that both he and Li Han had no idea why their grandmother held such prejudice against her.
Just because she was poor?
As their grandmother looked at Li Han crying like this, her expressionless face revealed no emotions. In fact, a wave of cold anger even flashed through her eyes.
In her view, Li Han crying like this in such a setting was a blatant insult to her, tarnishing her reputation.
Observing Li Han's heart-wrenching and desperate state, their grandmother's gaze turned icy and she coldly rebuked, "Why are you crying?"
"This is the banquet celebrating my immigration. Li Han, you ca here to give fake goods and now you're crying? How embarrassing!"
"You're a disgraceful waste. Shut up!"
Her voice was cold, filled with condemnation and disgust, devoid of any maternal affection between a mother and daughter.
Upon hearing her grandmother's words, Li Han's tears flowed even more uncontrollably. Gritting her teeth, she said, "Mom, I just want to know why you treat like this."
"You desire to know why? Let tell you!"
Before their grandmother could speak, Li i had already stepped forward, her voice cold. She said, "Li Han, it's because you're a miserable wretch who brings misfortune upon the Li family!"
"A miserable wretch?" Li Han was taken aback.
Their grandmother's gaze turned icy as she said in a deep voice, "Li i is right. Li Han, the fortune teller said that your destiny clashes with ours, that you're the wretched one who will ruin the Li family!"
"If you live comfortably, then none of us in the Li family will be comfortable, and we might even die!"
"On the contrary, if you were to die, our entire family would live in happiness, abundance, and great fortune!"
Boom!
Those words struck Li Han like a bolt from the blue, leaving her almost dumbfounded.
She had always believed that her mother and sister treated her so badly because she had done sothing wrong. She blad herself, thinking she hadn't done well enough.
But the real reason turned out to be so absurd?
"Fortune teller's words, aren't they superstitious? How can you believe in them?" Wang Anguo said in a deep voice.
"Why wouldn't we believe?" Their grandmother glared at Wang Anguo and coldly said, "When she was five years old, she had a stroke of good luck and found 100 yuan on the road. She bought many delicious things to eat at ho."
"As a result, that day, except for her, our whole family had diarrhea and ended up in the hospital!"
"Then, there was another ti when she scored 100 points on an exam, and our family's business plumted, almost leading to bankruptcy!"
"And the most significant incident was when she fell in love with a wealthy young man. After that, both and her father nearly died in a car accident!" Li Hong added.
"After she beca an adult and got accepted into the best university in the city, on the day she received the admission letter, our whole family caught a severe cold. We all ended up in the hospital, except for her!" Li i added.
Everyone looked at each other in astonishnt upon hearing this.
Could such things really happen?
Their grandmother gritted her teeth and uttered in a deep voice, "The fortune teller said her destiny clashes with ours. When she has good luck, we have misfortune!"
"Only when she experiences misfortune, can we have good luck!"
"At first, we did not believe it. But as her good luck increased, our Li family truly started to suffer more and more."
"Li Han, it's all your fault. You have brought misfortune upon our Li family and almost caused the death of and your younger brother!"
"That's why I'll never treat you well in my lifeti. I separated you from the wealthy young man, and I personally sent you to soone like Wang Anguo, a pathetic pauper."
"For the sake of our Li family and your younger brother, I must continuously tornt you, making your life increasingly miserable!"
"Furthermore, I hope every day that you will die. Why haven't you died yet?"
"If you truly desire to treat you well, I advise you to get out imdiately, never appear in my sight again, remain forever poor, preferably get cancer and die imdiately!"
