While He Kangcheng was still in a daze, Zhao Yun quickly stepped forward, snatched the document from his hand and read it carefully.

The more I looked at him, the uglier his expression became. The anger in his eyes became more and more uncontrollable. His face turned pale in an instant, and his eyes were full of astonishment and grief.

"Dad, are you really going to do this? You want to sever the father-daughter relationship with Rong'er? This...how is this possible!" Her voice trembled, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of her heart with difficulty.

Seeing this, the brothers He Tianhong and He Xingwen behind her also stepped forward, brows furrowed, eyes full of dissatisfaction and blame for He Kangcheng's decision.

He Tianhong was calmer. He asked with dissatisfaction on his face, "Dad, why did you do this?"

He disliked He Rong'er before because he was deceived by He Lian'er. Now, the brothers have just figured it out and decided to protect Rong'er's safety in the future.

Who would have thought that my parents would propose to sever ties at this time.

He Xingwen was more direct. His emotions were clearly out of control, and his voice was filled with anger and confusion.

"Dad! Rong'er has never done anything to let us down. Instead, we have always misunderstood her and ignored her. Now that the truth has finally come to light, you want to sever this family relationship with your own hands. Do you think you can live with your conscience by doing this?"

Facing the children's questioning and reproaches, He Kangcheng's expression changed from gloomy to bright, and finally settled into a complex state of indifference.

He took a deep breath, his eyes swept over each of his sons like a knife, and his tone was filled with unquestionable majesty.

"What? Are you questioning my decision? I tell you, this is not my unilateral wish, but Rong'er's initiative. Your mother and I just want to fight for some of the benefits you deserve, so that you won't be left with nothing in the future."

There was a hint of helplessness and sophistry in his words, as if he was looking for a reasonable excuse for the decision he was about to make.

Having said that, his gaze unconsciously fell on the stack of talismans that Xi Ruxin was holding tightly in her hand, and a hint of greed and satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

He Tianhong frowned upon hearing this, his eyes full of confusion and anger: "Dad, what are you talking about? Do you really want to use these talismans to exchange for your daughter Rong'er? She is our biological sister, not a commodity that can be traded! Besides, if you want the talismans, why not just tell me directly? Why do this?"

He Kangcheng snorted coldly, with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Your talisman? Humph, those don't cost spirit stones or spiritual energy? Since Rong'er has decided to cut ties with our He family, I naturally have to get some substantial compensation from her. Is there any problem with this?"

He spoke with great confidence, as if everything he did was natural.

As he finished his words, he snatched the severance letter from "Zhao Yun"'s hand and signed his name without hesitation.

The pen strokes were sharp, and every stroke seemed to be announcing the end of this family relationship.

He Tianhong, He Xingwen and "Zhao Yun" were all shocked when they saw this. They wanted to stop it, but it was too late.

After He Kangcheng signed, he slammed the brush heavily on the table, making a crisp "pop" sound, which seemed to be the echo of the severance of family ties.

"father!"

"you--"

The three brothers shouted in unison, their voices filled with disbelief and despair.

However, it was useless to say anything at this moment. The severance agreement had been signed and the family relationship could no longer be restored. They could only shake their heads and sigh helplessly, their eyes full of regret and remorse.

He Ronger got the severance letter as she wished, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

She looked at the people in the yard, her face turned cold and she began to chase them away: "Okay, now that you have got your things and signed the severance agreement, we don't have any relationship now, you can leave."

He Kangcheng felt a little unhappy when he heard this, but when he thought about how many talismans they had obtained, he felt a little better.

Xi Ruxin hurriedly put the stack of talismans into her storage bag, waiting to go back and take a closer look.

"Zhao Yun" and others wanted to say something, but they didn't know how to start.

She knew that He Rong'er had always been dissatisfied with them brothers, and even if they wanted to make amends now, Rong'er would definitely not believe it.

Just as He Kangcheng and his group were about to turn around and step out of the door, ready to end this brief exchange, a hint of cunning flashed in He Ronger's eyes.

She deftly took off a beautifully decorated pet bag from her waist, opened the bag slightly, and a small mink with shiny fur and alert eyes jumped out. She held it steadily in her palm and then slowly placed it on the wooden table beside her.

"Xiao Hui, are you hungry? Come here, sister has some delicious food."

He Ronger's voice was as gentle as the warm sunshine in spring. She gently placed her hands on the mink's delicate, silky fur on its back and slowly stroked along its smooth lines. Every movement revealed her infinite love and care for this little life.

This scene formed a sharp and interesting contrast with her previous alienation and indifference when facing everyone.

Xi Ruxin had already turned around, ready to leave this unpleasant scene, but driven by an inexplicable emotion, she glanced back with disdain.

Coincidentally, she saw He Ronger reaching out to the wooden box on the table, and a feeling of disdain and contempt suddenly surged in her heart.

She remembered that He Ronger had mentioned just now that the wooden box contained elixirs that she had made herself, and now, she was actually going to use these precious elixirs to feed a spiritual pet!

In Xi Ruxin's view, this is undoubtedly a huge waste of resources and a complete disgrace.

But when he thought about how he had just been disdainful of other people's pills, he quickly regained his composure.

She said, what good elixir can a little girl who has just learned to refine medicine for ten years make? It can only be used as a snack for the spirit pet.

Thinking of this, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

But then, an unbelievable scene happened.

Xi Ruxin's smile froze on her face. Her eyes were fixed on the wooden box on the table. Her fingers pointed there involuntarily, as if she was fixed by some mysterious force. She couldn't utter a word for a long time.

The wooden box slowly opened, and a faint medicinal fragrance instantly spread out. The fragrance was so pure and rich, far beyond what ordinary elixirs could match.

At this moment, Xi Ruxin was so shocked that she couldn't express it in words. She realized that she might be totally wrong.

He Kangcheng and his brothers had already walked to the gate of the yard. Noticing something unusual about Xi Ruxin, they stopped at the same time and turned to look at her.

He Kangcheng frowned when he saw this, and quickly turned back to Xi Ruxin and asked with concern: "Junior sister, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Mom!" The brothers also ran over nervously, their voices full of worry and nervousness.
