C134 Cold Sweat

"What answer? Is he asking my daughter to marry Xiao Yi? Or marry Xiao Hong? " Second Madam laughed coldly, then her tone became colder and colder, "No matter what, Xiao family is a hundred-year-old family. How can they do such a shameless thing?"

Jian Yuqian frowned when she heard this. "How can this be shameless? Isn't this because your daughter likes my son? If your daughter doesn't like my son, will she be willing?"

" She likes Xiao Yi, not Xiao Hong! " Second Madam was even angrier when she saw Jian Yuqian's confident and unrepentant look. Although she hoped that her daughter could marry into the Xiao family and share wealth and glory, but she hoped that her daughter would be happy! She did not want to marry into the Xiao family in such a dirty and disgusting way.

Jian Yuxi saw Jian Yuqian's expression and helplessly and anxiously stopped her from continuing, "Sister! Stop talking!"

Jian Yuqian gave her a cold look and pushed her hand away. She laughed coldly, "So what if Xiao Yi and Xiao Hong? Didn't your Ouyang family always hope to have a marriage alliance with the Xiao family? Now that such a great opportunity is presented in front of us, what else do you want?"

Second Madam was angered by Jian Yuqian until her face turned red and her body trembled. She did not understand why there was such a woman in the world.

Ouyang Hua, on the other hand, had calmed down a lot. He looked coldly at Jian Yuqian and said, "My daughter will not marry Xiao Yi or Xiao Hong. When the boat is near the dock, we will go back immediately!"

Although Jian Yuqian did not do this too well, they could not do anything about it. Even if they called the police, they did not have any evidence to prove that Xiao Hong raped Ouyang Qian. If this matter was spread out, Ouyang Qian's reputation would be really bad.

Moreover, even if he had thought of letting Ouyang Qian marry into the Xiao family to help him fight for the position of the Ouyang family's Patriarch, Ouyang Qian was his biological daughter after all. He couldn't just watch his daughter fall into the fire.

Jian Yuqian frowned, "Is there no room for negotiation on this matter? If Qian'er is willing to marry Xiao Yi, we can definitely settle this matter."

Ouyang Hua sneered and asked, "How do we clean it up? Qian Qing already has a child!"

"This is very simple. If you agree to this marriage, the child in Qian Qing's womb can flow." Jian Yuqian said lightly.

But she did not know that once these words were spoken, the worldview of the people present was once again refreshed.

Ouyang Hua and Second Madam, on the other hand, had a sneer and ridicule on their faces. They really didn't want to have any relationship with this kind of woman who even schemed against their own son and had his grandson exiled.

Jian Yuxi also couldn't understand what her elder sister was thinking. Could it be that the position of the Xiao family's Patriarch was really more important than her own son and grandson?

She looked at Xiao Yi who was standing at the side with a calm expression. She knew that Jian Yuqian had really hurt Xiao Yi's heart this time. She sighed lightly and didn't want to look at her anymore.

"Let's go." Ouyang Hua and Second Madam supported Ouyang Qian, who was weak and weak, and slowly walked out of the room. They did not want to stay there for a second.

"You don't know how to appreciate favors!" Jian Yuqian saw this and her cold face was full of anger. She then looked at Xiao Yi, who was standing beside her, and the disgust in her beautiful eyes became even stronger. She had worked so hard to help him, but not only did he not thank her, he also helped her. Instead, she only made things difficult for him. It was really annoying just by looking at her!

Xiao Hong, on the other hand, looked at Ouyang Qian's pale face. His starry eyes flashed with playfulness, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

Jian Yuxi originally also wanted to leave. After all, this older sister was really too tiring. But she was worried about Xiao Yi, so she could only continue to stay here.

"Why aren't you leaving yet?" Jian Yuqian looked at Xiao Yi with anger and disgust.

Xiao Yi's lips curled into a calm smile. He stood up, and between his eyebrows was a cold and domineering look that Jian Yuqian had never seen before. His eyes were cold and arrogant.

"I have already sent someone to tell grandpa about this. Grandpa has sent Dark One over."

"You!" Jian Yuqian did not think that he would actually inform Xiao family's Old Master, and that Old Master would actually send Dark One over!

Dark One was not only a trusted aide of Old Master of the Xiao family, he was also the person in charge of the family rules of the Xiao family! No matter who it was, as long as the Xiao family's Old Master sent Dark One out, it meant that this person must be invited to the Xiao family's ancestral hall to be "lectured"!

Xiao Yi brushed his clothes and smiled casually. "Alright, I have brought the message. I will go."

Jian Yuqian was so angry that her fingers were trembling. "You bastard!"

The reason why she dared to plot against Xiao Yi and Ouyang Qian previously was because she was certain that Ouyang Qian would suffer because she liked Xiao Yi too much. And Xiao Yi would listen to her and obediently marry Ouyang Qian. If it was like this, even if Old Master of Xiao family knew about this matter, he would still scold and scold her. However, he would not punish her.

However, she did not expect this matter to be out of her control. Not only did Xiao Yi go against her words and not marry Ouyang Qian, but he also did not want to marry Ouyang Qian. Ouyang Qian was also unwilling to give herself to Xiao Yi, which meant that she had offended both the Xiao family and the Ouyang family at the same time.

When she thought of the 'admonishment' of the Xiao family, Jian Yuqian was shocked and scared. Her charming face turned pale white, and her beautiful eyes were filled with fear.

Xiao Hong never thought that Old Master of the Xiao family would send out Dark One. It seemed that they had really crossed the line this time.

Xiao Hong's eyes darkened. The corner of his mouth curled up. He walked to Jian Yuqian's side and comforted her, "Mom, it's fine. I will take care of everything. I will go and talk to grandpa. Don't worry too much."

Hearing her son's words, Jian Yuqian's heart calmed down a lot. She looked at Xiao Hong with relief and reliance and smiled, "My son is still the best. He knows how to love his mother."

After that, she looked at Xiao Yi with disgust and sneered, "Not like some people who only make people angry."

Jian Yuxi and Ann Manyue saw this and shook their heads helplessly. They did not understand why she did not like such an outstanding and intelligent Xiao Yi and instead treated him coldly.

Could it be that Xiao Yi was not her biological son?

Unlike the two of them who were dissatisfied, Xiao Yi, the person involved, did not take her words seriously. He did not even frown before he turned around and left.

Xiao Hong looked at the overly calm Xiao Yi and felt somewhat uneasy in his heart. Cold light burst out from his starry eyes. Xiao Yi had indeed changed a lot. Although Xiao Yi had become more and more cold and arrogant in recent years, he knew that... Xiao Yi's biggest weakness was his desire for motherly love, so no matter how good his disguise was outside, as long as he was closer to his mother, or if his mother showed her disgust towards him, his eyes were filled with unconcealable sadness and indignation.

But today, he was too calm. It seemed that he was no longer the Xiao Yi who had opposed him for the sake of fighting for the mother's love. Could it be that he really didn't care about the mother's love that he had been begging for all this time?

A trace of contemplation and unwillingness flashed through Xiao Hong's eyes. This kind of free and easy Xiao Yi who had no weaknesses would give him a feeling that he could not control. This was really terrible!

Ann Manyue, who was standing beside him, accidentally saw a flash of ruthlessness on Xiao Hong's face. Her heart sank.

It seemed that she had to inform her cousin to pay more attention to Xiao Hong.

"Cousin, is something the matter?" Xiao Hong saw Ann Manyue looking at him with a thoughtful look and smiled.

Ann Manyue smiled indifferently, "Nothing. I just found that Second Cousin seems to be more mature than before."

Xiao Hong lowered his head and smiled. His eyes were inquiring, "People always need to grow up. After all, cousin is already 20 years old."

"It's good that Second Cousin can think that way. Otherwise, it would not be good to keep doing troublesome things to trouble others." Ann Manyue looked at him with a smile and said, "Second Cousin, am I right?"

For so many years, Ann Manyue saw Xiao Hong bullying Xiao Yi in her eyes. So she did not like this Second Cousin at all. When she was young, this Second Cousin pretended to be innocent and bullied his older cousin. He kept his cousin locked up in the ancestral hall and watched him with a naive and romantic smile. His thoughts were so deep that no one could compare to him.

At that time, she was already very afraid of this Xiao Hong. Therefore, no matter how good Xiao Hong was to her, she would always stay far away from him.

Xiao Hong turned the finger on his hand, a cold light flashing in his eyes, and even his tone became much colder. "How come I don't understand what cousin is saying?"

Ann Manyue curled her lips and did not answer him. Instead, she turned around and left the room with Jian Yuxi.

Ann Manyue intimately held Jian Yuxi's arm and lightly sighed, "Looks like eldest cousin is very angry this time."

Jian Yuxi patted her hand and said with heartache, "This is also not surprising for your Eldest Cousin. Your aunt was indeed too much this time. How could there be a biological mother in this world scheming against her son?"

Remembering Jian Yuqian's calm and natural face when she talked about the flow of people, Jian Yuxi could not help but sigh. It seemed that big sister really hurt Yi's heart this time.

If elder sister did not cherish Yi's feelings, it would be too late for regrets in the future.

Ann Manyue curled her lips, "I don't know what aunt is thinking. How can Second Cousin be compared to elder cousin? Why can't aunt see elder cousin's good?"

Jian Yuxi saw Ann Manyue's indignant expression and smiled, "That's because Second Cousin's health has been bad since he was young and almost disappeared several times. Your Aunt hugged him and cried for a few nights before you, Second Cousin, finally came back to life. And you, Second Cousin, have such poor health because your elder cousin stole your nutrition when you were in your mother's womb, causing you to be naturally weak. That's why your aunt especially dotes on you, Second Cousin."

"But this isn't my elder cousin's fault. This isn't something he can decide. Furthermore, Second Cousin's health is also very good now. Why is my aunt still targeting my elder cousin?"

" But people always have a feeling of anger. " Jian Yuxi did not seem to want to talk about this topic, and it was very vague.

Ann Manyue nodded her head and then said excitedly, "I did not expect Qing to have cousin's child. I will send them off later."

"It should be. This time something like this happened. Speaking of which, we are also responsible. But fortunately, the children are all adults." Jian Yuxi smiled and said.

"I also do not know that Qian Qing is carrying a boy and girl..." Ann Manyue got more and more excited as she spoke and wanted to see the birth of the child immediately.

"Silly child, I think your cousin will like both boys and girls."

"Of course, he loves Qing so much..."

The two of them talked as they walked further and further away.
