1339 This Is Called Reaping What You Sow
Xia Cheng’s chest was filled with the smell of blood. “Xi Xi! Xi Xi!”
The Xia family’s living room was silent for a few seconds before it instantly exploded. Only then did Ai Sumei understand what had happened. Even though the Xia family had obtained two billion yuan, it was still impossible for them to regain their power. All of them would be accused of crimes.
Sumei’s face was pale. She had spent a lot of effort seducing Xia Cheng and becoming a rich madam. She thought that she would live so carefreely forever, but she did not expect to face jail in her later years.
No! No!
!!
She suddenly realized her outcome and instantly aged a little. She could not help but cry bitterly. Then, she thought of something and hurriedly shouted at Xia Mengyan, “Mengyan, you schemed against her. It’s all your fault. Quickly apologize to Qiao Xi and ask for her forgiveness.”
If Xia Mengyan had not sent Madam Tan a photo, how could this have happened? The instigator of all this was Xia Mengyan!
Sumei staggered in front of Xia Mengyan and grabbed her arm tightly. She gritted her teeth and said, “You harmed everyone. Hurry up and apologize to Qiao Xi! Your grandfather and I are old, so we absolutely can’t go to jail. Mengyan, you can’t bear to see us suffer in jail, right? Quickly apologize!”
The corners of Qiao Xi’s mouth curled into a playful smile as she watched Ai Sumei’s crazy actions indifferently. It seemed that the Xia family knew that if they sold her for two billion yuan, they would be despised by the world, but they still insisted on doing it.
They originally thought that this matter would not spread. Even if they did shameless things, it would not be a big deal. In any case, no one would learn about their actions. However, they never expected that after the truth was revealed, everyone’s reputation would plummet. Xia Corporation would be sued, and everyone would be accused.
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes. They clearly knew that they were doing something wrong, yet they still did such a thing. They were not worthy of pity after falling into such a state.
Xia Mengyan was still in a state of collapse. She had completely lost her mind and even felt that this was just a dream. Before long, she would wake up from the nightmare. She stood on the spot with empty eyes. The next second, she was pushed to the floor by Ai Sumei and forced to kneel and apologize.
Sumei was already close to going crazy. She thought about how she had been swallowing her anger and scheming all these years. In the end, not only did she not win against Yin Lianxin, but she even had to go to jail. She had schemed for her entire life, but she actually ended up like this!
She did not want to go to jail! As long as Qiao Xi withdrew the lawsuit, she could continue to stay in the villa as the old madam of the Xia family. It did not matter if the company could not be run. As long as they still had two billion yuan in their hands, it would naturally not be a problem for them to comfortably retire.
Xia Mengyan slowly looked up at her unfamiliar family and closed her eyes in despair.
Her relatives who once doted on her so much first forced her to marry Young Master Tan. Now, they were forcing her to kneel and apologize to Qiao Xi. Why was this? Why were they so heartless?
In just half an hour, everyone was forcing her. Even Xia Lan was unwilling to stand up for her.
She had already cried until she lost all her strength. At this moment, she could only kneel on the floor weakly. Ai Sumei grabbed her hair and forced her to kowtow to Qiao Xi.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Xia Mengyan’s head slammed heavily onto the floor, and her forehead turned red. However, Ai Sumei did not pity her in the slightest. Instead, she looked at Qiao Xi with anticipation and said agitatedly, “Miss… Miss Qiao, she already knows her mistake. She even kowtowed to you and apologized. Please forgive us and quickly withdraw the lawsuit!”
Qiao Xi’s eyes were cold as she turned her head to look at Gu Zheng.
Gu Zheng’s eyes were filled with gentleness. His warm palm landed in front of her eyes, blocking this unbearable scene. He took the opportunity to pull her into his arms. A gentle voice came from his chest. “You must be tired. Let’s go.”
She nodded obediently and followed him out of the door. She had just taken a few steps when she heard Ai Sumei’s broken roar behind her. Then, she beat and scolded Xia Mengyan crazily. Xia Mengyan’s sharp cries echoed throughout the villa.
“This is called reaping what you sow.” Song Shiyu looked disdainful without a trace of sympathy.
Madam Tan’s gloomy gaze landed on Qiao Xi’s back. She really did not expect that this young woman would actually easily destroy the Xia family and even use some small methods to make them fight.
She had underestimated Qiao Xi this time. She had miscalculated. However, she would absolutely not let Qiao Xi off just like that. Sooner or later, she would send Qiao Xi to her son’s bed!
Suddenly, Madam Tan’s assistant rushed over with an anxious expression. “Madam, there’s a call from home.”
