Chapter 247 Speak It Out Clearly (1/2)

Xia Ning slightly slows her steps. Butler Wang also stops. Xia Ning thinks for a while. As if she makes up her mind, she makes a cough. The worry on her face has disappeared. She says to Butler Wang, “Uncle Wang, thank you for your reminding. Let’s go inside.”

Butler Wang nods. He leads Xia Ning to enter the living room.

Mr. Dai and Zheng Yao, Xia Ning’s mother-in-law, are sitting there. It seems that they have only talked for a while. But both of them look kind of displeased. Maybe they come across some differences in some issues.

“Mom, Uncle Dai.” Xia Ning greets them politely.

Mr. Dai sees Xia Ning and his dark face brightens at once. He smiles, “Ning, you here. Come here. Have a seat. Butler Wang, bring us some tea.”

Butler Wang responds and leaves.

Xia Ning looks at her mother-in-law, “Mom, what brings you here?”

Zheng Yao curls her lips. She is displeased, “Someone makes me worried. So, I come here.”

Hearing this, Mr. Dai is unhappy, “What do you mean by saying that someone makes you worried? Zheng Yao, listen carefully. Your man Yi Xian is too accommodative to you. But it doesn’t mean that you can be reckless here in my house! If you want to quarrel, you may leave!”

Both Xia Ning and Zheng Yao are shocked to hear what Mr. Dai says. Zheng Yao doesn’t expect that Mr. Dai, who doesn’t care about anything, would be so tough. Zheng Yao looks embarrassed on her face.

Something happened two days ago. It made her very nervous. Her husband Yi Xian was out for business. These days, she thought about the issue again and again. She decided to come to C City in person to find out the truth.

Xia Ning is aware of Zheng Yao’s uneasy expression. She smiles, “Mom, if I did anything wrong, you may tell me. Or…shall we find a place to have a talk?”

It is almost sure that her mother-in-law comes to C City for her. Xia Ning knows that Mr. Dai is protecting her. That is why he doesn’t like the words her mother-in-law just said.

Being scolded by Mr. Dai, Zheng Yao feels her heart stuck. She suddenly stands up, “Come with me!”

Saying this, she turns to go upstairs.

Xia Ning is just going to follow her. Mr. Dai says, “Ning, don’t be afraid. Anything happens, I will back you!”

Xia Ning feels warm in her heart, “Uncle Dai, Mom won’t be hard on me. Don’t worry.”

Then, she turns to follow Zheng Yao.

Mr. Dai looks at their backs. The expression on his face is kind of complicated.

They go to a quiet room on the second floor. Xia Ning turns to close the door.

“Xia Ning, what’s wrong with you?”

The door is just closed, when Zheng Yao bursts into yelling. She shouts so loudly that Xia Ning is shocked all of a sudden.

Xia Ning knows that the sound insulation is good in Mr. Dai’s house. Even her mother-in-law speaks the most loudly, no words can be heard outside.

“Mom, what happened? Can you tell me what I have done wrong?”

Zheng Yao widens her eyes, “It has become such a mess. Do you still want to pretend to be innocent? Tell me, what happened between you and Yin’s family? Jingsi and Mayor Yin came to Yi Villa themselves! Jingsi cried in front of me for almost an hour. What Mayor Yin said seemed soft but tough. Xia Ning, you really have your nerve. Are you doing overturning or rebellion?”
