Chapter 667: The Support Of Patriarch Yin
[Madam Xu is so strange! Although Qiao Xi has been missing for 20 years, she’s still her biological daughter. How can she bear to let Qiao Xi suffer?]
[This is like someone losing a ruby and getting a piece of glass. You think that glass looks better. Not only aren’t you blaming the perpetrator for making you lose the ruby, but you’re also thanking them for giving you this piece of glass.]
[The above comment makes a lot of sense. Madam Xu actually thanked that servant? And that Xu Anran is a b*tch. She pretends to be weak but she deliberately provokes Miss Qiao.]
[Isn’t Xu Anran very proud? Although she’s just an adopted daughter, she’s more favored than the biological daughter. She can do whatever she wants in the Xu family and even force the biological daughter to not dare to go home!]
[Fans, open your eyes wide and take a good look. This is the goddess in your hearts! Do you still have the cheek to scold Qiao Xi?]
Everyone in the banquet hall was filled with anger as well. “Xu Anran, didn’t you say that Qiao Xi was targeting you and wanted to chase you out? We sympathized with you and spoke up for you. It turns out that you’ve been bullying her!”
“What right do you have to ask Qiao Xi to forgive you? If it weren’t for you and that servant, Qiao Xi would have a happy and beautiful life. She would have parents who doted on her. You destroyed all of this but you’re still pretending to be a good person! If I were you, I wouldn’t have the face to continue staying here!”
When Xu Anran heard the curses around her, her body went limp and she almost fell to the floor.
The door of the banquet hall was pushed open. After the Yin family paid their respects to Xia Yunqiu, they came to the Xu family. Qiao Xi’s uncle, Yin Yunyi, had a gloomy expression. Without saying anything, he rushed over and punched Xu Zhi.
“Xu Zhi, look at what your wife and adopted daughter have done! Xi Xi has finally returned, yet you actually let them bully Xi Xi like this. Your Xu family doesn’t want Xi Xi, but our Yin family wants her. She’s the eldest daughter of our Yin family. If anyone dares to bully her in the future, it’ll be equivalent to going against the Yin family!”
Xu Zhi’s face was livid. He did not dare to retort. He knew that the Yin family was coming and immediately went to welcome them while trembling in fear. Unexpectedly, he was still beaten up.
All these years, the Yin family and the Xu family had cut off all contact with them because of Xu Anran. At that time, Xu Zhi thought that Xu Anran was obedient and outstanding. The Xia family also liked her very much. Hence, he thought it was worth losing the Yin family for this daughter of his. However, he regretted it now.
Xu Zhi’s face flushed red as he said respectfully, “Patriarch Yin, our Xu family has never said that we don’t want Xi Xi. This is a misunderstanding. I’ve always doted on Xi Xi.”
Yin Yunyi had a serious expression and said in a cold voice, “Xu Zhi, perhaps others might believe this, but I don’t believe a word of it. I know too well what kind of person you are.
“Your mind is filled with benefits. Familial ties hold no significance to you. Whoever can bring you more benefits is your relative. You don’t want this daughter of yours, and the Yin family just happens to lack a daughter. We definitely won’t let her suffer any grievances and will sincerely dote on her.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Yunyi threw a document in his hand at Xu Zhi’s feet.
“Xu Zhi, open it and see what your adopted daughter has done. I’ll definitely not let this matter go!”
Xu Zhi’s expression was ugly, but he did not care about his image anymore. He bent down and picked up the document. He flipped it open and looked at it. His mind buzzed.
Actually, Xu Zhi had long known that Xu Anran was not his biological daughter and sent someone to look for Qiao Xi. However, the results of the investigation back then revealed that Qiao Xi was stupid, naughty, ignorant, and incompetent. She was just a country bumpkin.
However, this information showed that Qiao Xi’s results had been outstanding since she was young. No matter what she learned, she was quick to pick it up. Moreover, she had very high artistic talent and was even called a little prodigy. It was precisely because Qiao Xi was outstanding and sensible that her brothers’ parents treated her as their biological daughter.
Yin Yunyi sneered. “All of you think that Qiao Xi is stupid and unworthy to be the daughter of the Xu family, but the Yin family doesn’t think so. No matter what, Xi Xi is still a child of our Yin family! Xu Zhi, from now on, you’ve already lost the chance to be Xi Xi’s father.”
Xu Zhi’s body went soft, and his eyes were filled with regret.
He wanted to love his daughter as well, but he did not want a stupid daughter. Now that he knew the truth, he realized how laughable he was. He believed Xu Anran’s fake information and missed out on his biological daughter for so many years.
At this moment, Xu Zhi could not help but doubt himself. Were benefits really that important? He watched as his daughter led a wandering life but turned a blind eye to it. He even doted on a fake daughter for so many years.
