Chapter 148: Kicked Out of the Family

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After midnight…

The entire A-City was already in deep slumber when Tao Niannian arrived at the Tao residence on foot.

She was out with her grandfather so she didn’t bring her wallet.

Her phone was also left in the car when her grandfather kicked her out.

She was penniless therefore could only walk home.

Her feet hurt like hell now and every step was an excruciating pain.

Tao Niannian didn’t understand how her grandfather could be so cruel.

Her eyes were swollen from crying. She walked up and knocked on the door.

The door creaked open from the inside.

The family bodyguard stuck his head out. “Miss, why are you home so late?”

“Where’s my grandfather?”

“The old master is already asleep.”

“Oh.” Tao Niannian was disappointed.

“Miss, let me help you in first.” The bodyguard said considerately when he saw her limping.

“No need, I’m going to walk back by myself.”

She wanted to remember this painful experience so she would never fall into such a situation again.

“Alright.” The bodyguard nodded.

Tao Niannian gritted her teeth, took a deep breath and limped back to her bedroom.

Meanwhile, the housekeeper went to Elder Tao’s bedroom and reported, “Old Master, Miss has returned. She seems to have suffered a lot.”

“Tell the kitchen to make her something to eat. Have the servants pack her things tomorrow morning.” Elder Tao said with a calm expression.

“Yes.”

The housekeeper wanted to speak up for Tao Niannian, but he didn’t dare to do so when he saw Elder Tao’s unhappy expression and left without saying another word.

The next morning, Tao Niannian was still fast asleep when a few servants barged into her room and put all her daily necessities into a suitcase.

“Who let you do this? All of you, stop!” She berated them furiously.

The servants paused briefly but did not stop working.

Tao Niannian got out of bed to stop them but as soon as her feet touched the ground, she hissed in pain.

She fell back into bed on her butt.

“You bustards! Do you have absolutely no respect for me? Be careful that I tell…”

“Tell who?” Elder Tao’s voice came from outside the door.

In the next second, he was in her room as he said coldly, “I’ve already told you last night that if you don’t apologize to Jiang Yining personally, you’re no longer a granddaughter of the Tao family. After your things are packed, you can go to a hotel and figure out what you would do for food, clothing, and accommodation in the future. Our family will not provide you with a single cent. I’ve also ordered people to terminate all the cards under your name and all the accounts that can be used for payment.”

Tao Niannian never once thought her grandfather could be so heartless.

She was stunned on the spot.

After a long while, she muttered, “Grandpa, are you really going to cut all ties with me?”

“I didn’t want it to happen like this but it’s your choice,” Elder Tao said ruthlessly.

Tao Niannian fell silent.

A few seconds later, she rolled out of bed and said through gritted teeth, “If you want me out, I’m out. Who cares! Just don’t regret it!”

Her eyes filled with tears after she said that.

She had lived with her grandfather since young and had the closest relationship with him.

But her grandfather was the person who hurt her the most now.

She would never talk to him again!

Tao Niannian took her suitcase and walked out in her slippers without even changing out of her pajamas.

The housekeeper felt sorry for her and ran after her. “Miss, don’t fight with the Old Master.”

“Anyone who dares to keep her will be kicked out of the house immediately.” Elder Tao said sternly.

The housekeeper stopped talking.

Tao Niannian left without looking back.

Tao Niannian hailed a taxi outside the Tao residence. She could no longer suppress the grievance in her heart; she covered her mouth and sobbed.

Her eyes were already swollen from crying when she took out her phone to look through her contact list.

Then, she called Xiao Lang. But his line was busy.

Tao Niannian hesitated for a moment before she dialed Chen Kexin’s number.

Tao Niannian, of course, had other friends. But those people were of similar status to her. If they knew that her grandfather had kicked her out, they would mock her mercilessly.

She didn’t need the humiliation!

Chen Kexin was different from those friends. She was in no position to criticize her even when she was down and out.

Moreover, Jiang Yining was Chen Kexin’s love rival.

She would definitely take her in.

When Chen Kexin received Tao Niannian’s call, she immediately asked her mother to pick up Tao Niannian and bring her to the hospital.

After a period of recuperation, Chen Kexin was almost fully recovered, but she was still put on bed rest.

Tao Niannian entered her ward and saw that she could not move.

She felt a little guilty, but she still explained her situation to Chen Kexin.

“Kexin, I’m homeless now. Can I stay with you temporarily?” Tao Niannian was still hopeful that her grandfather would take her back. It was a matter of time.

Chen Kexin replied uncomfortably, “Niannian, it’s not that I don’t want to help you. I really don’t have the ability to do so.”

“Can’t 1 just stay here with you?” Tao Niannian immediately turned hostile.

She was a spoiled child from a rich family and didn’t take rejection well.

Especially from Chen Kexin, whom she didn’t respect at all.

“It’s not like that…” Chen Kexin shook her head.

Chen Qinglian explained for her daughter, “Miss Tao, there’s something you should know. Kexin has offended Ah Zhi in her effort to chase the demoness Jiang Yining out of the Lu family. Her status in the Lu family has been reduced to a servant’s. Our monthly living expenses now are only 9,000 yuan. Taking away our daily expenses, we still have two to three thousand yuan left every month, which is quite good already.”

“Moreover, we live at the Lu residence. If you don’t mind, we can help you rent a place, but it won’t be as nice as your old place for sure.”

What kind of accommodation could be rented for two or three thousand yuan a month?

That wouldn’t even buy a good meal, okay?

Tao Niannian couldn’t accept it. She stood up with an embarrassed expression and said, “I won’t trouble you then. I’ll find another solution.”

Seeing that she was about to leave, Chen Qinglian said, “Miss Tao, 1 have a suggestion. Would you like to hear it?”

“What kind of suggestion?” Tao Niannian asked.

“As far as 1 know, our old madam doesn’t approve of All Zhi’s fight with the Tao family because it’s a zero-sum war where neither party would gain anything but other entities would benefit from the situation.”

“Do you want to go to Old Madam Lu and ask her to take you in? Alternatively, you can talk to her and ask her to persuade your grandfather to take you back.” “Wouldn’t it be good if our two families are harmonious again?”

Before Tao Niannian arrived, Chen Qinglian had already analyzed the situation and thought of the best solution.

She said all those words just to pave the way.

“But will the old madam agree?”

“If we mediate from the middle, she will definitely agree.” Chen Qinglian replied with a smile.

Tao Niannian nodded.

As long as she didn’t have to apologize to Jiang Yining, submitting appropriately to Old Madam Lu wasn’t that unacceptable.

“Alright, let’s do that.”

“Miss Tao, please have a seat first. I’ll get some food for you and call the old madam.”

“Okay.”

After settling Tao Niannian, Chen Qinglian left the ward..
