Rebirth 1983: Building My Business Empire Chapter 427 - 427 416 The Brave Cui Meili

Chapter 427: Chapter 416: The Brave Cui ili Chapter 427: Chapter 416: The Brave Cui ili Lu Jiaxin, in her previous life, had seen many TV shows and movies about lawyers, but when she thought about writing a script, the first person she thought of was Cui Zhihui, whose childhood experiences she could draw from.

Of course, she would definitely need to seek the consent of the involved party, so she called Cui Zhihui the next day. If Zhihui was not willing, Lu Jiaxin would not insist.

After hearing her out, Cui Zhihui agreed imdiately. Her reason was simple, “Sister Xin, I was too timid to resist back then. I hope that after the movie is made, it can inspire those kids who are bullied at school to bravely stand up and fight back.”

Lu Jiaxin only wanted to use Cui Zhihui’s past experiences as inspiration, but she didn’t expect that the next evening she would receive a call from Cui ili, who brought up the topic right away.

So people dislike airing their family’s dirty laundry in public, and Lu Jiaxin thought Cui ili felt the sa, so she said, “I’ll make changes to the background of the female lead, and only use Zhihui’s experience of being bullied at school.”

Upon hearing this, Cui ili imdiately replied, “Miss Lu, you’ve misunderstood. I hope you can include everything about our family in the script and later present it in the movie.”

Lu Jiaxin was quite surprised, “Sister ili, do you an to include everything about your parents, as well as the issues between you and Zhihui, in my script?”

Cui ili affird, “Yes. Miss Lu, you might not be fully aware of my parents’ situation. If you’d like to know, I can tell you all the details.”

Lu Jiaxin had already had soone look into the Cui Family’s background and had so understanding, “Sister ili, from what I know, your mother filed for divorce from your father because their relationship had fallen apart. After the divorce, your father got into gambling and then was arrested for embezzlent. Is there more to the story?”

Cui ili fell silent for a mont and then said, “Miss Lu, I’d rather discuss these matters with you in person.”

“All right.”

The next morning, Cui ili arrived at the agreed ti. To Lu Jiaxin’s surprise, Cui ili was actually pregnant, and she appeared to be about three or four months along.

Seeing Lu Jiaxin staring at her belly, Cui ili instinctively touched her stomach, “I’m pregnant, four months along, with my husband Ahao’s child.”

As far as Lu Jiaxin knew, Cui ili’s forr boyfriend, who was affiliated with a gang, was nad Ahao; Zhihui had even asked her to break up with that man before.

Lu Jiaxin asked, “Does Zhihui know about this?”

Cui ili nodded, “She knows. After Ahao realized Zhihui was worried he might one day be killed in the streets and drag into trouble, he promised to leave the gang if I’d break up with him. He kept his word and now works in a repair shop.”

Lu Jiaxin asked doubtfully, “Can one just walk away from a gang unhard when they decide to quit?”

From the gang films she had seen about Hong Kong in her past life, once soone joined a gang, there was no leaving, unless they went abroad and never returned. Of course, that was in the movies; she didn’t know the reality.

Cui ili explained, “Ahao has been very good to . Not only does he not despise my past as a streetwalker, but he also helps financially support my younger brother and sister. After finding a proper job and leaving the gang, he proposed to , and Zhihui stopped opposing our relationship.”

Seeing the happy smile on her face, Lu Jiaxin felt pleased for her, “Congratulations.”

After thanking her, Cui ili got straight to the point, “The divorce with my dad, it was because she had an affair, and the youngest in my family is hers with that man.”

Lu Jiaxin had guessed as much after reviewing the Cui Family’s information, “Didn’t your father discover her infidelity before the divorce?”

Cui ili shook her head, “No. Mr. Guo’s forr wife ca from a very wealthy family. Even though his wife was infertile and he dared not complain, he was very careful with his affair. It was not until my mom divorced and quickly remarried that my dad t that man and realized.”

Mr. Guo’s wife fell ill and passed away, which led him to marry Cui ili’s mother.

Lu Jiaxin felt that anyone would be unable to bear wearing the green hat for so many years, only to find out their ex-wife was openly together with her lover by the ti they discovered it.

A flash of hatred appeared in Cui ili’s eyes, “My daddy beca addicted to gambling because of that man’s sche. His intention was to make my dad ss up and be unable to show up in front of him ever again.”

Lu Jiaxin was very surprised, “How do you know that?”

Cui ili said she had soone investigate it, “Before my daddy got divorced, he never touched cards, nor did he ever buy lottery or horse racing tickets. And he loved us siblings very much. I couldn’t believe that he would turn to gambling to escape because he was hurt, so I’ve been investigating secretly. Last year, I finally found out that it was that man who had soone harm my daddy.”

Lu Jiaxin felt her values were being challenged once more, Mr. Guo was truly the scum of the earth.

Cui ili said bluntly, “Miss Lu, that bastard is rich and powerful. The few of us siblings can’t fight against him. But if we take our family’s story to the movies, people will see the ugly faces of him and my mother.”

Lu Jiaxin understood that Cui ili wanted to use this thod for revenge. She had siblings to support and was now pregnant, not daring to stir up trouble anymore.

“Sister ili, you really don’t mind using your story in the screenplay?”

“If I dared to do it, I won’t be afraid of people talking about it.”

Lu Jiaxin thought she was truly brave. But she definitely had to make alterations to this part of the story; otherwise, it would follow Cui ili for her entire life in the movie.

“Sister ili, once the screenplay is written, I’ll show it to you, and you can change anything you don’t like.”

“Okay.”

With the material provided by Cui ili, it wasn’t long before Lu Jiaxin wrote out the part of the screenplay about the protagonist’s life before she went to college. She wrote an outline for what followed, and as for the difficulties the protagonist faced while working on a case and how they were resolved, she left that for professional screenwriters to fill in.

That sa evening, Lu Jiaxin treated Su Heyuan and his brother to dinner. Considering that Su Heyuan had wide connections, including all sorts of people, she couldn’t help but ask, “In Hong Kong, if you join a gang and then decide to quit to find a legitimate job, would the gang agree?”

Su Heyuan laughed and said, “What are you thinking? Once you join a gang, if you think about leaving, your brothers will feel you’ve betrayed them. Plus, if you’re sowhat known in the gang, you’re bound to have enemies. If you leave the gang without your brothers to back you up, and your enemies co for revenge, what do you think will happen?”

Su Heming spoke quickly and directly asked, “Sister Jiaxin, why are you suddenly asking about this? Is it because one of your friends has been mixed up with a gang and is now trying to leave?”

Su Heyuan cursed imdiately, “Jiaxin has been studying these past couple of years; the people she knows are either rich or noble. Where would she have friends in a gang? Think before you talk next ti.”

Lu Jiaxin said, “It’s my middle school desk mate’s brother-in-law. He used to be involved with a gang, but he left last year and started working at a car repair shop.”

Su Heyuan asked, “What was your desk mate’s brother-in-law’s role in the gang?”

Upon hearing he was a minor gang leader, he imdiately said, “If he was a nobody in the gang, didn’t offend anyone, and left peacefully out of love, it’s possible. But as a minor leader, he must have enemies. Jiaxin, such people are definitely not clean; don’t get involved.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Jiaxin decided to hire a private investigator to check it out and see what the situation really was.
