The next day, Xu Rongchang and his family sneaked out early in the morning.

I heard they’re going to sabotage their secure jobs, exchanging their RMB for gold bars or other hard currency, to make final preparations for going to Hong Kong.

Xu Xiangsi didn’t have time to care about them. As agreed, she went out and met with Long Peiye.Full novel: 1960s Island: The Daily Life of a Capitalist Heiress Following the Military — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

The two went straight to the civil affairs department and quickly and efficiently obtained the marriage certificate.

On the marriage certificate, Xu Xiangsi and Long Peiye’s names were side by side, and the bright red seal was particularly eye-catching.

Xu Xiangsi’s name was naturally removed from the Xu family’s household registration and transferred to Long Peiye’s household registration.

Holding the brand-new household registration booklet, Xu Xiangsi breathed a long sigh of relief.

Finally, we’ve completely gotten rid of that family of vampires!

Long Peiye asked with a concerned expression, “I’m leaving for the island in three days. Will you have enough time to come up?”

Xu Xiangsi smiled slightly, her eyes showing a hint of ease and certainty: “I can leave at any time.”

Long Peiye nodded slightly: “That’s good… Shall I take you home?”

Xu Xiang refused without hesitation: “No need, I can go back by myself.”

Her current “home” is not a good place, and in a few days it won’t be a home anymore.

Long Peiye watched her turn and leave without hesitation, and couldn’t help but smile self-deprecatingly to himself.

It seems this sham marriage is just that—a sham marriage. She doesn’t even want him to know where she lives.

“Alright!” Long Peiye shook his head. “Then take care of yourself.”

“Thanks!” Xu Xiangsi waved her hand casually. “See you in three days.”

Watching her leave without any mercy, Long Peiye couldn’t help but touch his nose.

He thought he was quite outstanding and good-looking, so why didn’t his newlywed girlfriend feel anything for him?

This left Long Peiye somewhat frustrated.

When Xu Xiangsi returned to the Xu family, she felt more relaxed than ever before.

She began to slowly and methodically pack her things.

As someone who was endlessly loved by her maternal grandfather and uncles, Xu Xiangsi had quite a lot of possessions, including countless valuable items.

As evening fell, Xu Rongchang and his family of three returned home, looking tired but also somewhat excited.

Seeing Xu Xiangsi packing her luggage, Lin Jiaoyan pouted, but they knew she was preparing for going to the countryside, so they didn’t ask any further questions.

They couldn’t wait for her to get out of here.

Xu Rongchang and his team had clearly made all the necessary preparations.

The next day, Xu Rongchang announced that he would take Lin Jiaoyan and Xu Jingjing back to their hometown in the countryside to pay respects to their ancestors.

They euphemistically say that once you go to Hong Kong, you may never have the chance to come back, so you have to say goodbye to your ancestors.

Xu Xiangsi sneered inwardly. These three people really had the nerve, especially Xu Rongchang, a poor man who only got a good life by marrying her mother. He was the kind of person who would quickly distance himself from her grandfather as soon as he got into trouble, but now he was pretending to be kind and righteous.

No sooner had they left than Xu Xiangsi locked the door.

She took out the jade pendant that she always wore close to her chest, and with a thought, a familiar suction force came, and she entered that misty space.

In the book, this jade pendant is the female protagonist’s biggest advantage! Luckily, she arrived in time to bind it, preventing Xu Jingjing from stealing it!

The next second, she reappeared in the Xu family’s living room and began her massive raid!

To make it easier for them to take things with them, Xu Rongchang and his family had already gathered all the valuables in their house together, which made things much easier for Xu Xiangsi.

Heirloom vases, calligraphy and paintings from previous dynasties, and even secretly hidden gold bars and silver ingots… Xu Xiangsi didn’t even blink, and with a wave of her hand, she put them all into her spatial storage!

Many of these things were originally donated to the Xu family by my maternal grandfather, and now they are simply being returned to their rightful owners!

But when she saw the jewelry that originally belonged to her mother on the dressing table, now being openly displayed by Lin Jiaoyan and prepared to be taken to Hong Kong, Xu Xiangsi’s anger flared up instantly!

Those crystal-clear jade bracelets, dazzling diamond brooches, and a complete set of ruby headdresses—aren’t they all exquisite pieces?

All of these should be mine!

Without saying a word, Xu Xiangsi swept all the jewelry into her space.

She suppressed her anger and sneaked into Xu Jingjing’s room again.

Hmph, she’d like to see what good things this “pure and innocent” stepsister has up her sleeve!

Good heavens! I was shocked when I saw this. Xu Jingjing is really good at hiding her secret stash of money!

She easily pried open a locked wooden box, inside which were neatly stacked stacks of RMB that she hadn’t had time to exchange yet. At a rough glance, it was at least ten or twenty thousand yuan!

There were also several small brocade boxes nearby. When you opened them, you found seven or eight large, bright yellow croakers! There were also various gemstones and jewelry, pearls and agates, dazzling to the eye!

That old bastard Xu Rongchang, when asked for 10,000 yuan for his own daughter, he was heartbroken, as if his own flesh was being torn off! But who would have thought he’d be so generous to this stepdaughter!

They probably secretly gave all the good things left by the original owner’s mother to this shameless mother and daughter!

This money was probably squeezed out of Xu Rongchang’s grandfather over the years, but he was reluctant to give it to her, so it ended up in Xu Jingjing’s pocket!

Xu Xiangsi sneered and swept them all into the space without any politeness.

They even took all of Xu Jingjing’s fashionable Dacron dresses, cashmere sweaters, and leather shoes!

She wants to use her mother’s money to enjoy a life of luxury in Hong Kong? Dream on!

In no time, the Xu family’s house, which was originally quite well-decorated, had been ransacked by her and was now practically a bare shell.

The walls were bare, the cabinets were empty, and even the bedding had been taken away.

She clapped her hands, looked at the empty room, and felt refreshed!
