Chapter 4
In the hall, Chu Ruyan's mood was very complicated.
She didn't expect that things would develop to this point.
As the most resourceful person in the Chu family, Chu Ruyan was very clear about the impact that Chu Li's departure would bring.
Each of the three sisters of the Chu family is beautiful, has excellent martial arts talent, and has their own strengths. They are the envy of others and have countless suitors.
However, they are not male after all.
The only male who truly inherited the bloodline of the Chu family is Chu Li, no matter how much they dote on their adopted son Chu Ming, this is a fact.
You know, they have no problem recognizing Chu Ming, but people outside may not.
Therefore, from the perspective of the Chu family, keeping Chu Li is the most beneficial.
Of course, having said that, Chu Ruyan has never thought about it this way. She only thought about how to use various means to send the best resources to Chu Ming.
As a sister, she hasn't paid attention to Chu Li's affairs for a long time.
But just before, when Chu Li resolutely said that she wanted to leave the Chu family, her heart inexplicably hurt.
"Why do I feel this way?"
Chu Ruyan didn't know the answer to this question, but after listening to her sisters and her father, she inexplicably felt something was wrong. Do you really want to deprive Chu Li of his place?
Shengwu Academy is the top school in Daxia. Depriving Chu Li of his place might ruin his life.
"Ruyan, what are you talking about? What's wrong with giving Chu Li's place to Ming'er?"
Chu Lingtian asked from the side, his words filled with impatience.
In his opinion, Chu Li was an ungrateful person in the Chu family, who didn't deserve anything.
Chu Xiao'er also chimed in when she heard this, looking at Chu Ruyan with a strange expression on her face.
"Yes, second sister, what’s wrong with this? How could A Ming go to the academy without canceling his quota?"
"In fact, I can think of a way to get Amin's quota."
Seeing the Chu family say this, Chu Ruyan could only find an excuse and said:
"I just think that there is no need for the Chu family to lose a place in the academy. It is up to me to call Chu Li back."
Chu Ruyan is very resourceful and is a disciple of Li Muzhi, the Prime Minister of Great Xia. He has a wide network of contacts. It is not impossible to win an additional place in the Shengwu Academy for the Chu family.
Hearing this sentence, Chu Lingtian and others were silent for a moment..
Having one more place in the Shengwu Academy for the Chu family is indeed beneficial to the family's future. Everyone knows this.
Only the adopted son Chu Ming frowned slightly and felt uneasy.
"Then Chu Li can't really go to school again, right? It took a lot of effort to wait until he made a fool of himself and left the Chu family, and snatched his place."
If there are two young masters of the Chu family in Shengwu Academy, one real and one fake, the fake one will definitely be ostracized.
Thinking of this, Chu Ming became worried, but fortunately after thinking for a moment, Chu Xiaoer smiled. Get up
"Second sister, you don’t have to go out of your way to find Chu Li, how could he really leave? Probably just trying to play hard to get!"
Chu Xiaoer said this with certainty, and the reason was very good.
In the past few years, Chu Li had also quarreled with other members of the Chu family, but he came back every time, and even tried to show his kindness to them.
Chu Xiaoer Chu Xiaoer will try to deal with it every time and ease the relationship between the two parties, but of course the first thing in her heart is Chu Ming.
In Chu Xiaoer's opinion, the current situation is just the same as before.
Chu Li will leave, but he will come back soon.
"After all, who could take the initiative to give up a place in the academy?"
"Yes, Chu Li is so calculating, he will probably come back crying and apologizing soon, begging us to let him go to school."
Chu Lingtian sneered, as if he saw through Chu Li, but Chu Ruyan frowned slightly.
For some reason, she had a feeling that this time was different.
Recalling Chu Li's expression at that time, as if he had given up something, Chu Ruyan felt that he might not come back.
"Is this why I'm so flustered?"
Thinking of this, Chu Ruyan was confused. She didn't care about Chu Li that much before, but this time when she saw Chu Li leave, she didn't know why she cared about it.
It was as if something in her heart had been awakened, and she seemed to want to think of Chu Li. What.
After thinking for a moment, she looked at Chu Lingtian:
"Father, things are different this time. Let me go there myself."
"Like smoke, you......"
Before Chu Lingtian could finish speaking, Chu Ruyan hurriedly turned around and left, leaving several people confused.
"Second sister, what's wrong? Why are you still hanging out with Chu Li?"
"I don’t know, but Ruyan has always been smart, so she must have her own intentions."
Chu Wanling said so and closed her eyes to rest and heal Chu Ming. Chu Xiaoer stopped talking when she saw this.
"Huh, let her be."
Chu Lingtian turned his head when he heard this and stopped caring about these things.......
At the same time, a corner of the Chu family's vast mansion appeared.
In the dilapidated but clean house, Chu Li had already packed his bags.
But even though it's a luggage, it actually doesn't have a lot of things.
In the past few years, the Chu family has given Chu Li almost nothing, as if they have forgotten him. Even when eating, they sit at a separate table at the far end, watching the family and Chu Ming pick up food from each other, enjoying themselves.
There are only a few items in the luggage, except for some money saved over the years to deal with emergencies.
A change of clothes, documents that allow him to come and go freely, and a sword.
But when he walked to a cabinet, Chu Li stopped and fell silent.
There are not many items on the cabinet. There is a book on martial arts, a jade tablet, and a pair of darts, which are not valuable items.
But it was once his treasure.
This martial arts experience was given to him by his eldest sister Chu Wanling when he was young. At that time, the eldest sister loved him the most.
The jade plaque was given by the second sister Chu Ruyan. No one knows it now, but in fact the second sister Chu Ruyan was also in poor health when she was young. She and Chu Li had the same illness, and the two had the best relationship.
Even at that time, Chu Ruyan still had a tendency to control his disciples.
This body-warming jade token was a gift from Chu Ruyan to him on his birthday.
But now, Chu Ruyan only cares about Chu Ming, and the two haven't spoken to each other for a long time.
As for the darts, they were given to him by his third sister, Chu Xiaoer. She also said seriously that if he was weak and unable to master martial arts, he would be taught some strange kung fu. The most important thing was to save his life.
Looking at these three items that had been treasured for many years, Chu Li couldn't help but sigh after being silent for a long time.
Sigh that the world has changed, things have changed, and people have changed. Sigh that family ties are gone and there will be no return.
In the past, he cherished family affection.
But from now on, no more.
After sighing, Chu Li turned around and left the house. At this moment, a voice came from the side.
"Master, you are back, you are carrying a baggage, what is this?"
"Aunt Liu? It's a good thing you came, I was going to find you too."
Chu Li was very happy to see Aunt Liu, the servant who had been taking care of him, with a warm smile on his handsome face.
"Aunt Liu, I will leave the Chu family and live alone from today."
"real? Great, young master! You finally figured it out!"
Hearing what Chu Li said, Aunt Liu became excited, with tears in her eyes.
In the past few years, the servants in the house know how the eldest son Chu Li has lived.
Obviously, as the eldest son of Chu, , but he is not even as good as a servant, the house is the shabbiest in the Chu mansion, and there is no one to take care of him.
But the fake young master Chu Ming lives in the best mansion, enjoys the best resources, and has a lot of servants..
Aunt Liu has been in the Chu family for many years and has seen everything in her eyes. She has long felt that Chu Li is not worth it.
Putting aside Chu Li's martial arts talent and status, just by the face of her own young master, she will charm many people. A rich girl, no matter where she is, she can't be worse than in the Chu Mansion!
But this is something that everyone understands, but Master Chu Li can't see it clearly because of family ties.
Fortunately, now, he finally understands.
"Master, just think about it and leave quickly. This place is not worth your stay."Aunt Liu wiped her tears and said
"Well, I understand. I was too stubborn in the past to listen to your advice, but now I have figured it out. Chu
Li looked at the woman who had taken care of him for many years and said seriously:
"Aunt Liu, take care"
"Young Master, you too, please take care of yourself!"
"Um."
After nodding slightly, Chu Li turned around and stepped out of the Chu family's door under the watchful eyes of Aunt Liu.
His body was still weak and he couldn't even walk too fast, but the moment he left the Chu family, he felt a strange kind of liberation. The feeling burst out of his body, making him laugh out loud.
In the past, he always felt that his weak body was not suitable for leaving the house, but now his mind changed, and it turned out that there was nothing wrong with leaving the Chu family.
"I laughed up to the sky and went out. How can I be a Penghao person?"
Under the surprised eyes of the guards, Chu Li walked out of the door with a smile and never looked back.
His figure gradually moved away, and finally disappeared completely in the sunset.
