1234 Mother’s Will
The corners of Gu Zheng’s mouth curled into a smile, but his eyes were filled with coldness. “Haven’t you realized that Luo Qing treats Xi Xi very differently?”
“I was stupid and didn’t realize it sooner.” Only then did Song Shijing understand why the president was so hostile to Young Master Luo. He was jealous.
Gu Zheng smiled and retracted his gaze. “Let’s go.”
At this moment, in the lobby of Xia Corporation, the argument between Qiao Xi and Xia Mengyan had already reached its climax. The reporters and the businessmen present looked between the two of them.
Xia Mengyan suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and still had a smile on her face. She maintained her dignity. “Xi Xi, stop fooling around. Since you’re from the Xia family, you should think about the Xia family. The Luo family will be here soon. Don’t delay our collaboration because of your nonsense.”
Now, Qiao Xi had a few designs in her hands, but it was impossible to prove that the designs in the Xia family’s hands now were done by Xia Yunqiu. Qiao Xi had no evidence at all. She just wanted to interfere with the Xia family’s collaboration.
At the thought of this, Xia Mengyan became confident. “Xi Xi, I’m very sure that these designs were all created by my father. I also know that you won’t harm the Xia family. You must have misunderstood. Stop fooling around first. After the collaboration is over, we’ll talk at home, okay?”
Xia Mengyan had already thought of a way out for Qiao Xi. As long as she admitted that this was a misunderstanding, this matter would be resolved. Neither party would lose anything. Everyone would only treat what had just happened as a small episode.
Everyone quietly waited for Qiao Xi to speak. Unexpectedly, Qiao Xi sneered, and her cold expression carried a trace of disdain. “Miss Xia, since you said that the designs were created by your father, then tell me when he created them.”
Xia Mengyan’s expression changed. Could it be that Qiao Xi really had evidence?
However, didn’t Grandpa say that everything was already prepared? Even if Qiao Xi came to cause trouble, he had a way to deal with her.
Xia Mengyan thought for a moment and replied, “I was about six or seven years old. Although I was still young at that time, I clearly remember that my father always liked to draw designs in the study. There are still some sketches in the study now. Everyone in the family knows that my father likes to design, but he’s usually too busy with work and can’t spend too much time on design, so he doesn’t draw anymore.”
Her words dispelled many people’s doubts, and it seemed as though there was nothing wrong with what she said.free𝘄e𝗯n𝒐v𝒆l.𝒄𝙤m
“Xi Xi, I don’t understand why you’re here to cause trouble, but today is a very important day for the Xia family. If there’s a problem, let’s talk about it at home. Grandpa’s health hasn’t been good recently, and he really can’t take the stimulation. Be good, okay?”
Xia Mengyan’s tone was gentle, and her voice trembled slightly with a hint of pleading.
When everyone heard Xia Mengyan’s words, they felt that Xia Mengyan was more credible. She was thinking about the overall situation. Moreover, if the designs were really Xia Yunqiu’s, why did the Xia family sign the designs with Xia Ji’s name? They were all descendants of the Xia family, so what difference did it make who signed it? Why did they have to make things difficult for others?
Xia Mengyan could not help but be proud. Everyone believed her now. As long as Qiao Xi could not produce any strong evidence, she would be chased out. In the future, she would be mocked by Li City.
Suddenly, Qiao Xi sneered, and her eyes were filled with disdain. She took a few steps toward Xia Mengyan and said with a trace of ridicule, “Miss Xia, I didn’t come empty-handed today. Coincidentally, everyone is here, so I’ll show the evidence to everyone.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Xi took out a stack of documents from her bag.
Xia Mengyan’s heart thumped violently. Was this the evidence Qiao Xi was talking about? How was this possible? Could it be that Xia Yunqiu had left something behind?
“This is my mother’s will. She left all the assets under her name, including her designs, to me. My mother is a meticulous person. She left behind specific information and photos of everything. These documents contain all the information about the designs she drew. They were entrusted to me by a lawyer.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Xia Mengyan’s eyes were filled with resentment. Will? Xia Yunqiu actually recorded all the designs in her will? Was she crazy?
Xia Mengyan immediately shot a look at the bodyguard beside her. The bodyguard hurriedly rushed over, but the next second, Qiao Xi had already flipped open the documents. A few designs appeared in front of everyone. They were indeed exactly the same as the ones signed by Xia Ji.
Moreover, the date on it was 24 years ago. Every design was signed by Xia Yunqiu.
Xia Mengyan’s face was as pale as paper, and her body trembled uncontrollably.
