Chapter 216 - So-called Sainted Daughter (2/2)
Xiao Shen's face darkened, her eyes shining with resentment and anger. As if saying, 'Who are you to educate me like this?'
However, Old Tang replied calmly, ”Does Young Miss mind pointing out exactly what we did wrong?”
Xiao Ran didn't care about Old Tang, she chided vehemently at Xiao Shen and her eyes were full of sarcasm, ”Aunt Shen, you still have no idea what you did wrong? Or did you forget the rules of the Xiao family after your daughter was entangled in murder? We won't accept gifts or bri-ber-y in the Xiao family, even if it is a past birthday or wedding gift.”
Xiao Shen forcefully smiled, her blood boiling with anger. She never thought that this b*tch Yue Wan would not only not give her face, but also insult and humiliate her.
Old Tang's expression looked unhappy, even a little cold as she spoke: ”Princess Xiao is absolutely right, but you missed the point that I'm a part of the Xiao family, so the rules won't apply to me, unlike the outsiders.” She kept her face straight, but her gaze casually moved toward Yue Wan sitting next to Xiao Ran. With one sentence, she revealed her foothold inside the Xiao family.
Xiao Ran stood up and moved close to Old Tang blocking her view: ”Forgive my memory. I never saw your name in the Xiao family tree...”
Dare to stare at my sister in law. Bring it on!
”You can not learn a certain thing from those bits of white sheets. You still have a lot to master in order to become the heir to the Xiao family. You shouldn't be a Princess by name, you need to earn it. If you want to be the best, learn from the best.” Old Tang strictly replied.
Yue Wan understood that Old Tang wanted to establish her place in the family since she just returned not long ago. 'Not bad! But you made my stage so bright. I will repay everything from the past, including interests.'
Elder Xiao's face hardened. Massaging the little lad in his ŀȧp, he said: ”I have a guest to attend to today, so it is improper of you to enter the Xiao home without a word. Leave now.”
Old Tang's expression remained unchanged, but her grumpy voice turned cold as dead: ”Are you disregarding me for a mere outsider? Who disgraced and ruined the reputation of the Xiao Family by framing my child?”
Xiao Shen added, ”Uncle, I know that you won't believe us but think about it. What good does it have for us to kill one's, own family? Jingnan is like another son for me and Zhe always regarded him as her big brother. My daughter is simple and pure who never even hurt a single fly.”
If they didn't receive Elder Xiao's favour today, things would definitely turn sour.
She looked over at Yue Wan with sadness and disappointment. ”Miss Yue, why are you framing us? How can you be so malicious?”
Yue Wan smirked with a sarcastic smile: 'Oh please! You are giving me too much credit for your daughter's stupid plan.'
Reading her sister's expression, Yue Xiang pondered: 'I should've bought me a camera. My sister looks so cute.'
<Author: In which eye did you see her cute, you bird brain.>ditor: Yue Xiang is perfect in every way… if he says his sister is cute, his sister is cute… you are the bird brain….:P>
Yue Yeager didn't like the way Xiao Shen looked at his daughter. Understanding her gaze and he said coldly: ”I'm impressed that you can lie so well without batting an eye. Your daughter played a major role in inviting my Wan to that unfamiliar place, have you forgotten about that?”
Xiao Ran clenched her hand tightly that was wanting to rip apart her disgusting mouth. ”Also, the whole venu was booked under your so-called sainted daughter along with the date and time. It's not the first time you guys tried to scheme against each other, have you forgotten what the two of you conspired to do at my grandpa's party or are we going to pretend that didn't happen?”
Scared out of her wits, Xiao Shen's lips parted as if she wanted to rebuke, but no words came out. She quickly turned her eyes to meet Old Tang but only got to have glared coldly. 'DAMN IT! Mother didn't know about the party thing.'
