Chapter 169: After the exam (4)
"Mom, dad, uncle, auntie, we have to move."
When Chelsea said this, her parents and Andrew's parents were all surprised and confused.
They didn't know why she would suddenly say this, so they looked over at Andrew for some clarification.
But he just gave a nod to show that he agreed with this too.
After a moment of silence, Chelsea's father said, "Honey, we can't just leave like this. There's nowhere else for us to go. We're not rich enough to move and even if you've passed the exam and have become an Irregular License holder, we can't just leave that easily."
The other three parents nodded in agreement.
They were of course happy that Chelsea and Andrew had passed the Irregular License Exam, but her suggestion to move was just too sudden.
Even if they had passed and become owners of the Irregular License, it wasn't as if their lives would change right away.
They wanted these two to slowly get used to their new lives before making any changes.
Even if they were Irregular License holders now, they still haven't joined any powerful organizations that would allow them to soar up to become phoenixes yet.
Plus…they were hoping that these two would settle down soon.
As parents, they could naturally see the way that the two of them felt about each other, which was why they were acting like in laws already. That was why their two families were celebrating together instead of alone in the first place.
Chelsea shook her head and said, "No, we can't stay here for much longer…"
After a pause, she said with a heavy voice, "The Zhao Family won't leave us alone anymore."
The moment that she said this, all four of the adults couldn't help being shocked.
They looked at Andrew for confirmation and once again he gave a nod.
After a long silence, Chelsea's father asked, "What happened?"
Chelsea gave a sigh before telling them about what had happened in the exam with Zhao Kui.
When she had finished her story, all four of the parents had heavy looks on their faces.
They knew what it meant to offend the Zhao Family since all four of them worked for the Zhao Group.
"Is there no way of reconciling? What if you went to apologize?" That was Chelsea's father's first response after hearing this.
Chelsea couldn't help knitting her brows when she heard this.
She couldn't help feeling a bit frustrated when she saw her parents like this…
But she held it back and said, "It's already too late for this."
When they heard this, the parents once again knitted their brows.
Taking a deep breath, Chelsea said, "That's why we need to pack up and leave."
They just looked at her with a lost look and asked, "Where would we even go? Where would we be able to go so that we can escape the influence of the Zhao Group?"
Chelsea fell silent when she heard this.
Chelsea's father gave a sigh before saying, "I know what kind of personality the young master of the Zhao Group has, but you were too hasty. I know you are talented, but you offended him too rashly. The Zhao Group just has too much power."
The other parents nodded in agreement to this.
None of them said a thing as they fell into deep thought.
It was already too late to regret this. All they could do was think of a way to help their children out of this predicament.
Chelsea and Andrew were both saddened to see their parents like this.
After years of being oppressed, they had already become submissive and it really hurt them to see them like this…
With a sigh, Chelsea said, "Actually, there is a place for us to go."
"Huh?" All four parents suddenly looked up with surprised looks.
Chelsea's father then asked, "What do you mean by that? You should know that there isn't a place where we could hide from the Zhao Group."
Chelsea gave a sigh before saying, "There's someone that wants to hire me and Andrew. As long as we work for them, they should be able to give all of us jobs and provide us with shelter."
The four parents knitted their brows once more after hearing this.
Chelsea's father slowly said, "Honey, you should know how powerful the Zhao Group is…it's not something that normal people can compare to. Even if they are willing to hire you, once they find out that it's the Zhao Group that you've offended…"
His voice trailed off, but the meaning behind his words were clear.
Once they found out that it was the Zhao Group, then they would abandon them.
Chelsea shook her head and said, "No, they aren't afraid of the Zhao Group."
All four of the parents knitted their brows when they heard this.
Chelsea's father then said, "Honey, you shouldn't believe people's words that easily. People can easily say one thing and mean another…that is just the world that we live in."
Chelsea shook her head again before saying, "No, I know for sure that she's not scared of the Zhao Group."
They once again looked at Andrew and he gave another nod.
It was only then that they said, "Alright, then let's try to trust this person…"
Chelsea couldn't help pouting her lips and turning to look at Andrew after they said this.
Why didn't they trust her and only accepted this after seeing that Andrew agreed?
Andrew just revealed a bitter smile and a shrug when he saw this.
He could have explained, but it would have only made things worse if he did.
So he knew better than to actually say anything.
After they had agreed to this, Chelsea pulled out a small piece of paper that had a note on it.
This was what Long Shui Ling had passed her after their fight.
Opening it, she said, "With this note, we'll be able to find new jobs and a new place to live."
