When night fell, Liang Man Shu still had not returned.
Xi Shang Yun held onto the notebook that he had wanted Zhuang Dian Dian to organize, and upon seeing A Jie, he was startled.
”It's nothing, it's nothing...”
”Ugh …” ”Sigh, alright then.”
After A Jie entered, her expression was somewhat solemn. After mulling for a long time, she said: ”Madam has been playing cards recently, I think …. Lose a lot of money. ”
Xi Shang Yun's gaze turned cold. Probably, only he knew the truth behind the so-called ”game of cards”.
A Jie continued: ”This month's household, Madam has made a lot of advances. I initially did not want to say it, but it is only the beginning of the month, and the household is already completely spent. As for Mister, I can't explain it to you. ”
Xi Shang Yun's gaze became deeper, ”Mother, I understand.”
”Shang Yun...” A Jie looked at him, he knew that such matters should not be borne by someone of his age, but if her master was not at home, and his own identity was special, especially when it came to money, she should not be careless!
”You … ”Don't tell Mister.”
Xi Shang Yun naturally understood her worry. He nodded and said, ”Godmother, I will handle this matter. I will hand over this month's household to you tomorrow.”
When A Jie left, her face was still filled with worry.
At night, when Liang Man Shu returned, her body slightly swayed and she was a little dazed.
She pushed the door open.
When she saw the person who suddenly appeared in her room, she shrieked in fright. Only when she saw that it was Xi Shang Yun did she pat her chest and said unhappily: ”Why did you come to my room so late at night?” As she went in, she said, ”Your father is not at home, and you are not young anymore. You should at least be a little more secretive.”
Xi Shang Yun's indifferent eyes swept past her and he laughed coldly: ”So, you know about it too huh.”
Liang Man Shu's expression froze. After all, she did not have the heart of a thief. Furthermore, her stepson was waiting for him in her room at night, it was truly strange.
”Hehe …” She forced herself to smile, and turned around to face him. ”Yun'er, I don't understand what you mean by that.”
”You don't know?” Xi Shang Yun didn't even bother to reply and said straightforwardly: ”I've long known about you going to see Yu Xiang Fan.”
Liang Man Shu's eyes were wide opened, her expression extremely terrified, but very quickly she started to habitually try to deny it. Xi Shang Yun did not have time to listen to her retort, and his voice became even colder: ”How are you outside, it has nothing to do with me! But, if you take invading home's money and pour it on a man, don't blame me for that! ”
Liang Man Shu looked around, although she was still unwilling to admit it, her aura had weakened.
”Liang Man Shu, listen up!” Xi Shang Yun took a step forward, causing Liang Man Shu to uncontrollably retreat a step, ”You … What do you want? ”
”If you dare reach out your hand again, ask invading home for another penny! Just take your daughter and get the hell out of here! ”
”You — you dare to chase us away?” Liang Man Shu panicked, and it was only now that she regained some of her senses from her previous passion, feeling some lingering fear.
”Then let's give it a try and see if I dare.” Xi Shang Yun walked towards the door as his cruel voice floated over once again, ”You should know in your heart who my father will choose between you and this son of mine.”
With a single sentence, he sent Liang Man Shu to hell.
Don't look at how she usually flaunts herself. When she really faces a difficult situation, she immediately loses her mind. Without thinking, she picked up the phone and called the man who had just been in love with her.
”Xiang Fan, it's bad! His son knows about us. He won't let me see you again, and he says he won't let me take a penny. What should he do? Would he tell Zhenghan? ”I'm so scared...”
