Deng Wenwen’s expression darkened and her eyes suddenly turned cold.
However, she suppressed herself!
From her cloudy expression, she could feel that this old lady almost lost control and wanted to punch her in the face.
“Lawyer Wang told me your grandfather gave you West Park and the lands located in the east of the city.” Deng Wenwen endured the anger burning inside her. If Yueying had not been in such a dire crisis now, she would not have left the hospital to meet Xi Xiaye here!
“Didn’t Lawyer Wang make things clear to you? Good thing that you came to me. You guys can move out since it’s my place now.” Xi Xiaye glared at Deng Wenwen with an icy cold tone in her voice.
Deng Wenwen’s expression soured even further! She never expected that bastard Xi Jiyang to give all these to Xi Xiaye, and only leave her a measly savings of only $ 500,000!
When Lawyer Wang approached her, West Park was already under Xi Xiaye’s name, so they would need to move out as long as Xi Xiaye wished so!
She never expected this sneaky move from Xi Jiyang.
Although she knew Xi Jiyang did not love her, he had never mistreated her either. He should have at least left West Park to her after his death, yet he had given it to Xi Xiaye!
“Dream on if you think I’ll move out of West Park! No matter what, I’m still the head of the family. As long as I’m alive, I’ll never move out of West Park. Sure, that old bastard gave it to you, but you know how the rules work! Unless you want the whole world to laugh at your father for chasing his 70-year-old mother out of the house, I doubt you can be that shameless!”
Deng Wenwen’s tone turned bitter. “You made Mu Yuchen do that to Yueying, didn’t you? How can you be such a wicked witch? Aren’t you part of the Xi family? Why do you have to destroy the Xi family like this? That old bastard Xi Jiyang actually left West Park to you! You ungrateful brat!”
Yueying was Deng Wenwen’s life. She had promised Elder Madam Xi to give up on having a child. After she aborted her first child, she and went for a ligation surgery before marrying Xi Jiyang.
In return, she got Yueying. Elder Madam Xi had only given Xi Jiyang and Xi Mushan a small portion of the shares while the rest was parked under her name.
She put all her time and effort into Yueying after marrying Xi Jiyang. Although she treated Xi Mushan fairly, Xi Mushan was not close to her and was just indifferent. He thought of her as a guest who was staying permanently in the Xi family.
She was not really happy about Xi Mushan’s treatment, but she never made a big fuss out of it.
After that, due to her mistake, Yueying almost went bankrupt. At that time, her good friend, Yue Lingsi’s mother told her that Yue Lingsi had a crush on Xi Mushan since a long time ago, so in order to save Yueying, she tricked Xi Mushan.
However, Xi Mushan and Shen Weena were deeply in love then, and it was not an easy task to separate them, so she had to pull some underhanded tricks.
Shen Wenna was a prideful person and rarely communicated with her. She offered her a position in Yueying, but she insisted on being a lecturer and refused. Moreover, she heard that Shen Wenna broke ties with her family to marry Xi Mushan. She had no idea what Xi Jiyang was thinking about to agree to their marriage!
...
She started having a headache as these past memories flooded her mind!
After giving it a long, hard thought, she finally realized she had made a mistake back then!
Just how smart was Elder Madam Xi?
Even if she gave Yueying to her, Deng Wenwen would grow old and die one day. Then, she could not bring it with her to her deathbed, so would it not return to the Xi family after that?
After a whole life of effort, what had she gotten in the end?
Nothing!
...
“Ungrateful?” Xi Xiaye snorted as she took a sip from the cup of coffee before looking into Deng Wenwen’s enraged eyes. She said coldly, “Don’t you think it’s because of you that Yueying was led to its demise today? If you didn’t force me to sign that document or try to take away my mother’s shares, all of these wouldn’t have happened! Someone from the Xi family? Have any of you actually thought of me as part of the family?”
“Xi Xinyi is your family. You know very well how she treated me all these years. You sacrificed me and my mother to protect them. All that was just to get the Yue family to back you up, wasn’t it?”
Xi Xiaye’s eyes were sharp and frigid while she stared straight at Deng Wenwen.
As expected, Deng Wenwen’s expression darkened right after that. The cold aura around her felt like poisonous, cold needles.
“Grandfather told me about you. You gave up being a mother for power. I don’t even need to guess. The culprit of my parents’ broken relationship is you!” Xi Xiaye sounded stern as her cold gaze almost coated Deng Wenwen with a layer of ice.
Nevertheless, Deng Wenwen just shivered slightly. Her stubbornness would not allow her to back off, so she straightened her back and faced her straight-on.
Xi Xiaye was impressed by this old lady’s demeanor. She could still be so self-righteous even at this point. With a scoff, she gently put her coffee cup down to close in and speak beside Deng Wenwen’s ears, “So, do you think I’ll just let you get away with this?”
“What do you want then? Will you only stop after you totally destroy Yueying? Do you know that’s the Xi family’s? The Xi family! You’re still using the surname Xi now! I never expected you to backstab us like this! How can you do that? Chenye Movies and Televisions? You’re happy now, aren’t you?!” Deng Wenwen’s eyes were burning with rage. Her tone of voice was fierce as she clenched her fists and glared at Xi Xiaye.
“The Xi family’s? Can you guarantee that it’s still the Xi family’s property after you die? As for West Park, are you sure if you have West Park now, you won’t sell it to fulfill Yueying’s financial needs?” Xi Xiaye had a mocking grin on her face.
