She Wants to Be a Salted Fish

[Poverty makes me get up early. 】

[Don't be ridiculous, boss, you are still poor, you have so many assets, and we are not as rich as you. If you say that you are poor, then there will be few rich people left in the world! 】

[Forget it, let’s have a meeting, I have something to do this afternoon. 】

Chu Ci secretly mentioned to his subordinates that he was poor several times, and hoped that they would find out in conscience that they would give her something, and she would not mind the house and car.

However, her brothers just couldn't get her.

In the eyes of his subordinates, Chu Ci donated tens of millions casually, built a few Hope Primary Schools at every turn, funded a few college students when he had nothing to do, and invested heavily in the establishment of a pharmaceutical company to develop new drugs but gave them away for free...

How can such a person be poor? Anyway, the subordinates of Chu Ci didn't believe it.

And can she clearly say that if she explicitly asks them, it will not be counted as a gift from them, and will be judged by the system as a violation.

###

At twelve o'clock at noon, Chu Ci went downstairs, and the servants at home put all kinds of food on the table.

Chu Han was already in his seat.

There were only Chu Ci and Chu Han on the huge dining table.

Today was Chu Ci's first day home, and no one else in the family showed up to greet her.

So far, in this family, Chu Ci has only seen the younger brother and the grandfather on the hospital bed upstairs.

Although Chu Han had no feelings for Chu Ci, he also knew that such a situation would be somewhat embarrassing for Chu Ci, so he explained: "Mom and Dad went on a business trip to the capital a few days ago, there are very important things to deal with, and so on. You'll be able to see them when they come back in a few days."

"Oh." Chu Ci replied calmly, with a very light expression and tone.

Compared with the rest of the family, Chu Ci felt that it was a very gratifying thing to have a good meal today.

Chu Ci didn't complain about the fact that the rest of the family didn't come to welcome her, which made Chu Han feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

If she complained a few words, he would feel normal.

She was so good at it, just because she was satisfied with a little food that seemed very normal to their family, Chu Han couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

His sister must have suffered a lot over the years.

Meng Yuxin also came to the table.

Today is the weekend, and neither of them have to go to school.

Meng Yuxin sat down and asked Chu Han, "Xiaohan, how old is your sister this year, and which school is she studying at now?"

Meng Yuxin's question stumped Chu Han.

He only saw from the information his grandfather gave him that his sister was two years older than him.

But I don't know where his sister is studying now.

So Chu Han turned to ask Chu Ci, "Where do you go to school now?"

"No." Most of Chu Ci's attention was on the food in front of him.

Today's lunch is Western food, the first dish is creamy chicken puff pastry box; the soup is oxtail clear soup; the side dish is pan-fried cod; the main dish is French foie gras; the last is salad and dessert.

As soon as Chu Ci said it was gone, Chu Han's expression changed.

But if you think about it, it makes sense.

It is normal for her to live in a slum with no one to take care of her and to have no money to go to school.

According to the information Chu Han obtained, Chu Ci was sent to an orphanage just a month after he was born, and was adopted by a couple who could not bear children when he was five years old.

But when Chu Ci was six years old, his adoptive mother became pregnant and gave birth to a boy. From then on, Chu Ci's situation in his adoptive parents' home became very difficult.

Three years ago, when Chu Ci was fifteen years old, his adoptive parents immigrated abroad with their biological son, leaving Chu Ci alone in China without any relatives and no reason.
