âYouâre in someone elseâs house. Stop talking about Chairman Huo!â
That person was not convinced. âThatâs the truth. Miss Xieâs health wasnât good to begin with, but Mrs. Huo moved into the Huo residence directly. She was so angry that Miss Xie was sent to the hospital. Then, she got depression and committed suicide within a year.
âFrom then on, the Xie family and the Huo family cut off all ties. The two families were like enemies. Old Master Xie never allowed Chairman Huo to step into the Xie family again. He didnât even allow Huo Cenfeng to attend Miss Xieâs death anniversary.
âThatâs right. Speaking of which, the Xie family is also very loyal. After Miss Xie passed away, Old Master Xie followed Miss Xieâs living will and didnât let that scumbag pay his respects once,â
As they spoke, everyone was puzzled again, âM/hy is the Xie family here this timeâ¦â
Ye Beisheng wanted to laugh.
Lin Zhen lowered his eyes and explained, âThe Xie family is indeed good at pretending. In the upper class⦠Who didnât say that the Xie family was loyal?
âEveryone said that the Xie family regretted marrying Miss Xie to Chairman Huo. They said that after Miss Xie passed away, the Xie family became enemies with the Huo family and the Ninth master to avenge the grievances Miss Xie suffered back then.
âBut the truth is that the Xie family was trying to cover up Miss Xieâs death! In order to protect Huo Cenfeng and Xue Qingâ¦â
âThe real cause of death? Are you saying that Miss Xie did not commit suicide,
butâ¦
âNinth master didnât find out anything about these things.â
Ye Beishenâs eyes flashed. Her grandfather and Miss Xie knew each other. There were many memories of Miss Xie in her grandfatherâs notes.
If she could find her grandfather, would she be able to find out the real cause of Miss Xieâs death? Would she be able to find evidence that those people had killed her?
Ye Beisheng felt a chill down her spine. âOld Master Xie tried every possible means to kill his own daughter. He didnât even hesitate to collude with Huo Cenfeng and Xue Qing, who killed her. Arenât they father and daughter? What kind of deep hatred is itâ¦â
Yet now, the Xie family was still pretending to be sanctimonious.
In the evening, the banquet officially began.
The appearance of the Xie family shocked everyone present.
Especially the young man beside Old Master Xie. He seemed to be very close to the Huo family.
Ye Beisheng looked up and met Xie Lanâs eyes.
She narrowed her eyes.
Xie Lan raised his glass to her politely and did not care that Ye Beisheng was ignoring him. He finished the wine in one gulp.
The Xie family and the Huo family had fallen apart in the early years. Now, the Xie family had gradually declined and could not compare to the Huo family.
However, it was undeniable that the two families were old nobles and had a deep relationship.
If Huo Xiting didnât exist, the Huo Family would probably be the same as the Xie Family now. Everyone felt that if the two families hadnât had that incident back then, they would have appreciated each other.
But twenty years had passedâ¦
Did Old Master Xie think things through?
If the Huo Family and Xie Family joined forces again, with Ninth Masterâs methods, there would probably be no room for the other families to survive in An City!
Therefore, someone asked tactfully and impatiently, âOld Master Xie, this isâ¦â
âThis is my grandson, Xie Lan.â Old Master Xie laughed.
Everyone pricked up their ears.
Huh? What did he say?
This was the son of Old Master Xieâs daughter. His surname was actually Xieâ¦
Moreover, Old Master Xie only had two daughters. The eldest daughter, Xie Zhinian, had passed away. The second daughter, Xie Qi, had never heard of a son.
Thenâ¦
At this moment, someone shouted, âThe Ninth master is here!â
