2152 A Slap in the Face! Qiao Nian Is Someone Feng Yu Likes
Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi were not fools. If they did not realize that they had been tricked, they would really be too stupid.
Her family had caused so much trouble. Xie Tingyun was ashamed.
She looked at Qiao Nian with eyes filled with guilt. “Nian Nian, I…”
Seeing that she could not get Qiao Nian to come over, the old lady could not be bothered to beat around the bush. She simply made things clear. “Young lady, I heard that my daughter acknowledged you as her successor. However, our Xie family has long had a candidate we like. She’s family.
“She’s not in good health and likes you. Stay with her more and our family won’t treat you badly.” Her tone suddenly changed, and her eyes became sharp. “But if you want more, we’re not to be trifled with. Here’s a contract. You can take a look at the terms. I hope you can sign it.”
The old lady nodded at Xie Xinyao and said calmly, “Xinyao, take it out.”
Xie Xinyao glanced at Qiao Nian and walked over to the bedside table. Opening the drawer, she took out a contract paper from the inside.
Then, she walked up to the girl, unable to hide the arrogance in her eyes. “Take a look.”
At this moment, the expressions of Xie Tingyun, Nan Tianyi, Xie Yun, and Ji Nan all changed. No one expected the old lady to make things so ugly.
She had even prepared a contract behind their backs.
Xie Tingyun was so angry that her entire body was trembling. “Mom, what are you doing!”
“I’m doing this for the Xie family. Our Xie family’s things can’t fall into the hands of outsiders.” The old lady switched out of her previous weak demeanor and made things clear.
“Young lady, sign this contract. I won’t let you suffer. Don’t be too optimistic. An outsider can’t be the heir of the Xie family.”
Qiao Nian did not take the contract. She only glanced at the cover and roughly guessed what kind of contract it was.
She retracted her gaze and said calmly, “There’s no need.”
The old lady’s eyes darkened. “You won’t sign it?”
She thought that Qiao Nian was too greedy and wanted to brush her off.
She would not allow such a thing to happen under her nose.
Qiao Nian pulled down the brim of her cap. Her cold and fair hand was exceptionally beautiful, attracting attention. Under the gaze of Old Madam Xie and Xie Xinyao’s family, she said lazily, “Because there’s no need to sign it.
“I won’t touch the Xie family’s assets, nor will I inherit your things. Not now, and not in the future.” Qiao Nian paused, glanced at the people in the ward with a cool gaze, then said calmly, “Because there’s no need.”
Ji Nan, Xie Yun, and the others had barely touched the tip of the iceberg of Qiao Nian’s hidden identity. They knew she was the diamond big boss and the boss of the Red Alliance in the illegal district, so they knew that Qiao Nian was not ignorant or arrogant. What she said was the truth.
‘There’s no need.’
If Old Madam Xie knew that she had rejected the Ji family, she would not have bothered to cause such a farce today!
“Auntie Xie, my friend is still waiting for me outside. Since the old lady is fine, I’ll leave first.”
“Nian Nian…” Xie Tingyun’s heart sank. She had a thousand things to say, but she was too ashamed to ask the girl to stay. She nodded and said gently, “Go ahead. Send me a message when you get home.”
“Alright.” Qiao Nian agreed quickly.
Not looking at Old Madam Xie and the Xie family, she nodded politely at Xie Yun and waved at Ji Nan. “I’m off.”
Ji Nan watched her turn around and leave. When Qiao Nian was far away, he took a deep breath and said to Old Madam Xie, who thought she had succeeded, “Grandma, you still don’t know, right? Qiao Nian is the successor that Dean Feng has taken a fancy to. The First Research Institute might be hers in the future.
“It’s just a small Xie family. She really doesn’t care for it.”
