ch 241 - An Unexpected Discovery; Chasing Away The Best 10 If it wasn’t what h (2/2)

“Ugh, no…”

Startled by Cheng Xiao Xiao’s look, Luo Yujie’s face turned red and white, but she said defiantly, “Xiao Xiao, how could you say that? We are family. What’s wrong with hanging out together? I only have your best interest in mind!”

“Family?” A shred of sarcasm flashed through Cheng Xiao Xiao’s eyes and she rejected her directly, “I don’t have time. I can arrange my own agenda. They can go wherever they want to. We will send our men to take them, I am not a servant!”

Her bluntness brought darkened look on the Tian’s. Especially Tian Fusheng, one could already detect anger on his face. He never expected Cheng Xiao Xiao to be so unyielding. After all, he did rush to back up and help out the Cheng’s the previous night.

That was exactly why the Tian’s had talked about how to collect this favor and build relationship with Cheng Xiao Xiao. After all, they have learned in the last few days that Cheng Xiao Xiao’s authority almost rivaled that of Cheng Biyuan at the Cheng’s.

She made all the calls around the house!

Having this knowledge, the family had shifted their attention to Cheng Xiao Xiao. Even though they knew it wasn’t going to be an easy feat, Luo Yujie believe that the Cheng’s owed them a favor after last night.

And that was why they waited the entire time for Cheng Xiao Xiao to show up.

She did show up finally, but her mannerism was not what the Tian’s had expected. It was exactly the same as it was a few days ago – that she had no respect for them at all.

“Xiao Xiao, how could you say that, what….”

Before Luo Yujie could finish what she was saying, Mrs. Cheng stood up abruptly, looked straight at her older sister and said, “Yujie jie1, Xiao Xiao was up all night last night, can’t you just let her rest for a few days? Jiang’er and Feng’er wanted to take a trip, I will send Danhuang and Tianshan to accompany them. Xiao Xiao is not going anywhere today, she needs to rest!”

Seeing her mother got upset for the first time ever, Cheng Xiao Xiao was genuinely startled. She has always been a total pushover. She’d rather take the shorter end of the stick than to confront anyone.
