“This woman is unfamiliar to me, but I know who that serious man is. He’s the head of the Yin family, Yin Yunyi. His surname was originally Xia, and he’s Old Madam Yin and Mr. Xia Cheng’s eldest son. After Old Madam Yin divorced, she brought her children back to the Yin family. Xia Yunyi changed his name to Yin Yunyi and even became the head of the Yin family.”
“You mean this gentleman is Madam Xu’s biological brother? Then this madam must be Xia Yunlou’s mother, Old Madam Yin? They’re both from the Yin family?”

Everyone gasped when they heard this. The Yin family was gathered here. What were they doing?
Old Madam Yin’s expression was calm. “It’s the Xu family’s fault that the Xu family doesn’t like Xi Xi? Xi Xi is not in the wrong here! Xia Yunlou, cut the crap. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want Xi Xi. In any case, it’s enough that Xi Xi is favored by the Yin family. She’s the only daughter of the Yin family, so why should she snatch the position of the eldest daughter of the Xu family?”
“Xi Xi doesn’t need to compete with anyone. She doesn’t need to take your small Xu family seriously. As long as she wants it, the Yin family can give anything to her. How can she take a liking to your Xu family?
“From now on, Xi Xi is the eldest daughter of the Yin family. All the wealthy families in Luo City have to respect her. Why would she snatch the position of the eldest daughter of the Xu family from Xu Anran?”
Old Madam Yin’s cold expression faded as she smiled affectionately. “Xi Xi, quick, come to my side.”
Everyone widened their eyes in shock. They heard that the Xu family hated Qiao Xi because she had offended everyone before she even joined the family, so the Xu family was unwilling to accept her.
Now, Old Madam Yin had brought the descendants of the Yin family over to support Qiao Xi. She even announced to the world that Qiao Xi was the eldest daughter of the Yin family, and she looked down on the small Xu family.

Whether it was power or wealth, the Xu family was far from being the Yin family’s match. The Yin family had been at their peak for hundreds of years, but the Xu family had always been mediocre. Now that their company was facing difficulties, the two families could not be compared at all.
.
Moreover, not only did Qiao Xi have the Yin family behind her, but she also had Gu Zheng. These two enormous powers were both supporting Qiao Xi, so who would dare to go against her?
Almost everyone knew the inside story of Xia Yunlou cutting ties with Old Madam Yin. At that time, Xia Yunlou was even living together with Xia Cheng’s mistress. She even called that mistress her mother. After Old Madam Yin divorced, Xia Yunlou insisted on living with the mistress. This caused Old Madam Yin to be completely heartbroken, so she cut off all contact with her daughter.

At this moment, Xia Yunlou’s eyes were empty, and her heart was filled with hatred. Why were her mother and brother helping Qiao Xi?
Just as everyone was silent, a crisp slap sounded. Xu Zhi rushed forward and slapped Xu Anran hard. Xu Anran was thrown to the ground by the sudden slap, and her cheek instantly became red and swollen.

“You b*tch!”
Seeing this, Xia Yunlou immediately rushed over to protect Xu Anran and shouted, “Hubby! What are you doing?!”
Xu Zhi’s eyes were red as he gritted his teeth and asked, “Xu Anran, you were the one who gave me the information six years ago that stated Xi Xi is naughty, willful, and stupid. You said that if she returned to the Xu family, she’d only make the aristocrats laugh at the Xu family. This is what you said, right?!”

Old Madam Yin’s gaze turned cold. So, they already knew Xi Xi’s whereabouts six years ago?
At this moment, Xu Zhi could not care about the consequences. He only wanted to vent the anger in his heart. He also regretted being muddle-headed back then and not immediately bringing Xi Xi back. If it were not for Xu Anran interfering, perhaps their family would have been reunited a long time ago.
“Xia Yunlou, is this matter related to you? Do you know why Xi Xi suddenly disappeared six years ago?”
Hearing Xu Zhi’s question, Xia Yunlou was a little flustered. “It’s all because of her stubborn character. Who knows where she went? Maybe she was with a man—”
Smack!
Xu Zhi raised his hand and slapped Xia Yunlou hard.

“Let me tell you, it was Xu Anran who changed Xi Xi’s information and made us think that she’s stupid and naughty. In fact, Xi Xi is talented and smart. She participated in various international competitions and even won championships as young as 14 years old! She’s also the goddaughter of the Shen, Qin, and Xue families!

“She didn’t disappear because she did something bad. Moreover, Xu Anran deliberately concealed her information and even sent a group of hooligans to bully her in an attempt to ruin her innocence.”
Qiao Xi reacted. This had indeed happened when she was 14 years old. At that time, a few hooligans came to look for trouble with her. Her eldest brother beat them up until they were half-dead, so his career was affected. Hence, he left the entertainment industry and went overseas.
