Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing that Xia Mengyan was so loyal, the socialite was touched. She felt that she had not stood up for Xia Mengyan for nothing.
Yin Jinglin really could not stand Xia Mengyan’s pretense. He sneered and said, “Miss Xia, you’re so capable! You managed to win people’s hearts with just a few words and make them willingly work for you. But if it weren’t for you, would she have offended the Yin family?”
The socialite was stunned for a moment as if she had realized something. Xia Mengyan’s expression was extremely ugly. “I… I didn’t mean that. I just don’t want my friend to suffer with me. Xi Xi, you—”
“Miss Xia,” Qiao Xi said casually, “You should be clearly aware now that I was the only victim from the beginning until the end. After the Xia family released the news, the internet was filled with curses aimed at me, which caused a serious impact on my life. Hence, only I have the right to criticize you. You have no right to pick on my mistakes.”
“Xi Xi, I’m really sorry. I’ve always treated you as my cousin. I…” Xia Mengyan lowered her eyes and sobbed weakly. Tears fell one by one, splashing onto the floor.
She spoke in tears as if she was the most aggrieved person in the world. She wanted to make it seem that everything she did was because she was deceived. She could not be blamed for this. She was very pitiful, so she was also a victim. If Qiao Xi continued to be unreasonable and make things difficult for her, then Qiao Xi would have no right to be Mrs. Gu.
Qiao Xi smiled meaningfully. “Miss Xia, if you really didn’t know, I can naturally forgive you, but you clearly knew about it a long time ago.”
Her voice was very calm. “In order to protect his granddaughter, Old Master Xia is willing to take on everything himself. It’s really touching.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Xia Cheng’s expression changed and Xia Mengyan’s entire body trembled. When Xia Cheng decided to take all the blame for Xia Mengyan, he felt that even if Qiao Xi was dissatisfied, she could not do anything to him as she was a junior. However, if Mengyan was implicated, not only would her reputation be ruined, but Qiao Xi would also not let her off.
At this moment, everyone finally realized something. Qiao Xi was also Xia Cheng’s granddaughter, but he did not hesitate to ruin his granddaughter’s marriage for Xia Mengyan.
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled up slightly. “Miss Xia, I forgot to tell you that I invited you to the banquet today for a reason. After all, you call me ‘Cousin’. I still have to save you some dignity. As long as you had admitted your crimes, I wouldn’t publicize the evidence I have on hand. However, I don’t think you have the slightest intention of repenting. You’re still shameless enough to say that you’re innocent and even bite me back. I’m really convinced by your shameless spirit!”
The big screen flashed again. Xia Mengyan suddenly looked up, and her body gradually stiffened. The blood in her body seemed to have stopped flowing. A strong sense of fear swept through her entire body. At this moment, all her rationality and disguise disappeared. She shouted at the top of her voice, “No!”
The scene changed. Xiao Lu was seen dragging his tired and old body to the door with Young Master Xiao. The two of them waited quietly at the entrance of the Xia family’s house. All these years, because of problems in the Xiao family’s company, their wealth had been deteriorating year by year. Now that they were on the verge of bankruptcy, their capital chain was broken, just like the Xia family 20 years ago.
Back then, when the Xia family was in danger, Xiao Lu did not hesitate to lend 300 million to the Xia family. At that time, 300 million was a huge sum of money and enough to support the Xia family through the crisis. Now that Xiao Lu had come to visit, he only hoped that the Xia family could lend them 300 million like before as a form of repayment for their kindness back then. Even if 300 million was not enough, he would not ask for a single cent more. It was just that he did not expect Xia Cheng to actually reject them.
Xia Cheng stood at the door and looked at the old Xiao Lu coldly. He waved at the butler impatiently. “Chase them away! Don’t let them dirty the Xia family’s door!”
Xiao Lu looked up in disbelief. He did not expect Xia Cheng to be so heartless. He said in a trembling voice, “Friend, about the 300 million I borrowed you the last time, can you…”
“What 300 million? Do you have evidence? What can you do even if I lent you 300 million? The Xiao family is hopeless! I advise you to leave Luo City quickly and not shamelessly come to the Xia family to ask for money! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being nasty!”
Old Madam Xia was not an easy person to deal with either. Her mouth was filled with ridicule and mockery. Xiao Lu lowered his head and clenched his fists. He said unwillingly, “Xia Cheng, when the Xia family was on the verge of bankruptcy, I was the one who lent the Xia family 300 million. All these years, I’ve never asked for the sum of money back. But now that the Xiao family is in trouble, are you going to ignore us?”
