After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 291

Xia Zheng Hai agreed to An Nuan's suggestion.

An Nuan explained her plan to Xiao Nanchen, and after some hesitation, he also agreed.

After all, this was the only way to force Xia Qiqi to work properly.

So, on that day,

All of Xia Qiqi's cards were frozen.

She tried swiping all her cards, but every attempt failed.

Xia Qiqi felt extremely embarrassed and frustrated in the beauty salon.

Since she didn't know where else to go that day, she decided to get some beauty treatments and massages at the salon.

She wanted to pamper herself and regain her energy.

She still had some lingering effects from last night's drunkenness.

She didn't want Xiao Nanchen to affect her mood.

However, she never expected that

After she finished enjoying herself, she was informed that all her cards were blocked from making any transactions!

She hurriedly called her father and asked, "Did you go bankrupt?"

It was a direct question.

Xia Zheng Hai almost spat out blood upon hearing it.

"What do you mean?!" Xia Qiqi exploded with anger, "Why did you suddenly freeze my cards?! Are you planning to give all the assets to that woman, Xiao Qiang?!"

"What I do with my assets is my own business," the conversation between father and daughter would always escalate into an argument in just a few sentences, "You haven't contributed anything to this family. Everything belongs to me, and I'll dispose of it however I want! You have no right to interfere!"

Xia Qiqi was trembling with anger.

Although she had a strained relationship with her father since childhood, he had never spoken to her like this before.

Usually, she was the one venting her anger at him.

Xia Qiqi gritted her teeth and was about to hang up the phone.

After all, she couldn't bring herself to ask him for money.

"You're 22 years old now, and you've already graduated from college. I've done enough to raise you, and I won't unconditionally give you a penny anymore. If you want money, either find a job on your own or come to work at Xia Hui Bank," Xia Zheng Hai said bluntly.

Xia Qiqi was not intimidated by Xia Zheng Hai's threat and immediately hung up the phone.

She called An Nuan again, "Nuan Nuan, send me some money."

"Why?" An Nuan asked.

In fact, she knew the reason.

She didn't expect Uncle Xia to act so quickly.

"My father froze all my cards."

"Is that so?" An Nuan clearly chuckled.

"Are you finding this amusing?"

"No, I feel sorry for you."

Xia Qiqi didn't believe her.

She said, "Quickly send me some money. I'm at the beauty salon right now, but I can't make the payment because my cards are frozen."

"How much?" An Nuan asked.

Xia Qiqi asked the staff and replied, "28,000 yuan."

"I'll transfer it to you. When will you pay me back?" An Nuan asked again.

"... Do you have to be so practical?"

"For how long?" An Nuan pressed for an answer.

"You know very well that my dad has frozen my card, so how would I know when I can pay you back? Besides, it's just over 20,000 yuan, not a big deal. With our sisterly relationship, do you really expect me to pay you back?"

"Even close siblings keep accounts," An Nuan replied firmly.

"An Nuan! Are you trying to infuriate me?"

"Now that your card is frozen by your dad, you'll have to ask for every penny you spend. I can't keep supporting you like this forever. I work hard for my money too."

"You, you, you..." Xia Qiqi was so angry that she couldn't speak.

She had just been infuriated by her dad.

And now An Nuan was provoking her like this.

What kind of plastic sister did Xia Qiqi have?

Just as Xia Qiqi was about to hang up the phone out of anger, she suddenly thought of something and shouted, "An Nuan, are you colluding with my dad? Did you come up with this plan with him because I didn't go to work this morning? Are you trying to deceive me? How cunning of you!"

"I didn't expect you to be so slow," An Nuan chuckled.

"It's really you! Are you really my sister? How could you plot against me like this!" she exclaimed. Her dad would never act like this out of the blue.

He always tried to please her.

When did he ever dare to treat her like this?

"Actually, you don't have to go to work at your dad's company. You have another option," An Nuan suddenly said kindly.

"What option?" Although Xia Qiqi couldn't say anything nice to An Nuan at this moment, she couldn't help but be intrigued by her words.

"Flatter Xiao Nanchen and make him give you money to spend," An Nuan spoke frankly.

"Are you joking? Xiao Nanchen is getting money from my dad. How could he have money to give me? You think too highly of Xiao Nanchen."

"Xia Qiqi, do you have some misunderstanding about Xiao Nanchen?!" An Nuan was speechless.

Xiao Nanchen was the top hacker in the country. Just taking on one project would be enough for an average person to live on for a lifetime.

"Whether there's a misunderstanding or not, I will never compromise in front of Xiao Nanchen!" Xia Qiqi stated firmly.

"Then your only choice is to go work at your dad's company."

"I don't want to!"

"Do you have any other options?" An Nuan asked Xia Qiqi.

Xia Qiqi gritted her teeth.

She felt like everyone was plotting against her at this moment.

"Finally, let me remind you, negotiate better terms with your dad so that he can give you more money each month. Otherwise, he might pay you the salary of an ordinary employee, and I'm afraid you'll spend it all in a day."

"..." Xia Qiqi was on the verge of tears.

"Believe me, the person who will never harm you in this world is your dad, me, and Xiao Nanchen."

After saying that, An Nuan hung up the phone.

Continuing the conversation would only push Xia Qiqi to the brink of collapse.

Xia Qiqi was truly on the verge of being overwhelmed.

Her eyes were filled with tears.

Since marrying Xiao Nanchen, she felt like she hadn't had a single good day.

At this moment, the staff next to Xia Qiqi didn't dare to say a word.

They had overheard Xia Qiqi's phone call and could clearly see her anger.

The situation remained tense for a long time.

Another staff member knocked on the door and entered, "Miss Xia, someone has already paid the bill for you."

Xia Qiqi was taken aback.

She looked at the staff member, still feeling somewhat incredulous.

"I've already made the payment for you," the staff member said again.

"Who paid for me?" Xia Qiqi asked.

"The other party didn't leave a name."

Without even thinking, she knew.

It must be An Nuan.

An Nuan was someone who talked tough but had a soft heart.

She never considered that there could be anyone else.

Xia Qiqi left the beauty salon.

She drove, still seething with anger, wandering the streets.

She had initially planned to get a makeover and then go shopping for clothes and bags. But now, with not a single penny to her name, she couldn't even afford a bag, let alone a drink of water.

In this moment of utter despair, she realized that her car was almost out of gas.

Fuming, she parked her car by the side of the street.

She felt as if she was being driven to her wits' end.

She sat in the car, completely falling apart.
