Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xi Wan drank her juice and listened to Fang Yi’s speech quietly. She did not continue to express her opinion on this matter.
[Actually, Cheng Shi and Ling Feng both wanted to kidnap you.] The system spoke at this moment.
Xi Wan raised her eyebrows and asked it, “Same day and same time?’”‘
The system nodded: [Yeah, it’s the same time and place! However, she didn’t meet you, so Cheng Shi changed her plan and kidnapped Ling Feng.]
[Fortunately, you usually bring bodyguards with you when you go out. Now it seems that it’s good that you don’t like to carry your own bags!] After the system learned the truth, it could not help but feel a wave of fear.
Xi Wan thought of the phone call that Su Xun had given Fang Yi that day and added, “Actually, I still have to thank Su Xun. If it wasn’t for him being concerned about my safety at home and asking me if I wanted to take a bulletproof car, I wouldn’t have asked the driver to drive the car to the hotel’s side door to pick me up just to make the effect more realistic.”
[It’s fine if you didn’t mention it. Now that you mention it, I feel like the villain is cheating again. It’s as if he knew the plot in advance!] The system sighed as if it was serious.
Xi Wan nodded. “Speaking of which, I feel that I misunderstood Cheng Shi.”
The system was caught off guard when it heard the words, and it was obviously stunned. “What?”
Xi Wan explained to it, “Hate lasts longer than love, but it can’t beat true love. Her thoughts of kidnapping Ling Feng defeated her hatred for me. Indeed, love can’t be restrained.”
[ … ] The system thought that she was going to say something, but in the end, she was just trying to tell it that true love was invincible?
If Xi Wan’s thoughts were to be described with ancient poems, it could probably be described with many famous ancient poems.
After Fang Yi finished talking about this matter, she still seemed to be a little reluctant. She then found some romantic affairs of other wealthy families in the circle and told Xi Wan.
“Have you heard about what happened to the Xiao family recently?” Fang Yi looked at Xi Wan mysteriously.
The Xiao family?
Xi Wan recalled the recent events and shook her head regretfully. “I haven’t heard of it.
Fang Yi said somewhat resentfully, “You can’t stay at home like this anymore. You’re not a scholar who ‘paid no attention to the outside world and only read the books of sages’ in ancient times and wanted to get an official position!” “It’s so tiring to go out.” Xi Wan leaned back on the recliner and changed her position comfortably.
Fang Yi gave up when she saw her stubborn look. She turned around and told her about what had happened in the Xiao family recently.
“The Xiao family has been very lively recently. Xiao Zhe, as the actual head of the Xiao family, actually wants to kick his sister-in-law out of the house!” Fang Yi’s eyes widened slightly. “Guess why he did this?”
Another game of ‘I say, you guess.’
Xi Wan thought about the last time she went shopping with Lu Zhou. She saw the pitiful Xiao Ling.
“Because of his nephew Xiao Ling?” Xi Wan asked.
Fang Yi was once again shocked by her accurate answer. She muttered softly, “How can you guess everything so accurately? Don’t tell me it’s because of your intuition as a woman this time?” “Not this time.” Xi Wan smiled. “Then why?” Fang Yi asked.”
“The last time I went shopping, I picked up a child who was abandoned by his stepmother. That child happened to be Xiao Zhe’s nephew, Xiao Lin.” Xi Wan took a sip of the strawberry juice. “Lu Zhou was there too.”
Fang Yi nodded and accepted her explanation. “Then I’ll go back and ask Lu
Zhou for the details. I’ll tell you what happened to the Xiao family first.”
After listening to Fang Yi’s story, Xi Wan found out that Xiao Zhe had immediately started to collect evidence of his sister-in-law abusing his nephew Xiao Lin after he returned from dinner that day.
Xiao Zhe had collected a lot of evidence of Xiao Lin’s abuse, including evidence of his sister-in-law embezzling the company funds his brother had left for Xiao Lin.
Therefore, Xiao Zhe, who originally only wanted to get custody of his nephew, decided to go all out this time. He wanted to send his sister-in-law to prison with evidence of her embezzling public funds and also wanted to use this pportunity to kick her out of the Xiao family.
“What was the result?” Xi Wan asked.
Fang Yi smiled happily. “Of course, Xiao Zhe succeeded in getting custody of his nephew and sent that woman to prison!”
However, Fang Yi changed the topic. “It’s just a pity that the woman didn’t seem to have been kicked out of the Xiao family.”
“Why?” Xi Wan found it unbelievable.
This woman had abused the Xiao family’s descendants but she had not been kicked out of the Xiao family?
This was too strange!
