Chapter 52: Chapter 52
The reason he had agreed to come to the Xi family today was because Yan XI had already been discharged from the hospital and was returning to the XI family. He had to give the Xi family some face and support them. However, he did not expect that XI jingxing would give him such a big surprise when he softened his stance and wanted to help XI jingxing. “Brother-in-law, what’s going on? Please explain clearly now. The Yan family spent a lot of connections to buy that medicine. What right do you have to give it to others?” Xi Jingxing took a deep breath. It had been many years since he had encountered such a situation. Because of the Yan family’s connections, everyone had been flattering him. They had never been like this before, surrounded by everyone’s accusing and puzzled gazes. It was as if even breathing was wrong! His expression was cold as he raised his chin. “I do have some unspeakable secrets regarding this matter, but I’m doing it out of kindness...” “Then tell me, what kind of unspeakable secrets are worth giving away your daughter’s life-saving medicine?”Yan Yunzhi had been in a high position for a long time and was not someone to be trifled with. Now that he had lost his temper, his aura was even more terrifying. Even though XI jingxing was thick-skinned, he could not help but feel a little flustered at this moment. He opened his mouth. “I...” “Then who knows what kind of unspeakable secrets are there? It Can’t be that he has taken a liking to Du Xiaoman, right?”Li Weiran said coldly. “I remember that Jing Xing had always looked down on du Xiaoman. He wasn’t even happy that Qingcheng taught du Xiaoman how to write a thesis. He felt that Du Xiaoman wasn’t worthy of being taught by Qingcheng herself.” Xi Jingxing was interrupted by Li Weiran, and he was also annoyed by Li Weiran’s sarcasm. “Li Weiran, shut up. How could I like Du Xiaoman? Am I Crazy?” He had once had a gorgeous wife like Yan Qingcheng, so how could he possibly take a fancy to anyone else? Moreover, du Xiaoman came from a poor background. She was uneducated, had no knowledge, had a soft temper, and had no special characteristics. She was as dull as a pool of stagnant water. Only a person from a poor background like Chen Yuchen would marry such a woman. When Chen Xiangxiang heard Xi Jingxing’s exasperated words, her face turned slightly pale. She believed that Xi Jingxing was speaking the truth under such circumstances. It was precisely because she knew that he was speaking the truth that she was hurt by the contempt and disdain in his words towards her mother. How could XI jingxing be in the mood to care about whether Chen Xiangxiang would be embarrassed or not. He stood up, his tone was fierce. “I had no choice. Back then, I was on a business trip and encountered a mountain flood. It was Xiangxiang Who Saved My Life! “She saw me holding the freezer from the F Research Institute. She knelt down and begged me. If I refused to save du Xiaoman, she would jump into the river right in front of me. After all, she was my savior and Yuchen’s only daughter. I had no choice but to let her take the freezer.” After he finished speaking, he felt that he was in a dilemma. If it was anyone else, they might not have done better than him. Everyone’s gaze turned to Chen Xiangxiang in unison. This action of Chen Xiangxiang snatching the medicine was indeed too selfish. Her mother’s life was her life. Could it be that other people’s lives were not their lives? Chen Xiangxiang’s face turned pale. She did not expect XI jingxing to push all the responsibility onto her so cleanly. At that time, he was the one who took the initiative to help her up. He was also the one who took the initiative to hand the freezer to her. Now, it had become her who forcibly seized the medicine! However, she could not expose it on the spot. Only the two of them knew the situation at that time. If XI jingxing said that it was her who seized the medicine, then it had to be her who seized the medicine! However, Li Weiran did not buy it. “Then you’re really magnanimous. Your Daughter’s life-saving medicine has already been stolen and used by others. Yet, you can still bring the other party home to take good care of her. You’re so touched that the Chinese people’s organization did not give you a prize no matter what.” “Li Weiran!”Xi jingxing suppressed his anger. Li Weiran said, “Don’t shout so loudly. That would only make you look angry out of humiliation.” Every day, he was always complaining that this person was not lenient and that person was not merciful. Why was he angry now? XI jingxing took two deep breaths and did not say another word. He only looked coldly at Li Weiran. Li Weiran did not care at all. It had not been a day or two since he and XI jingxing had been at loggerheads. When had XI jingxing ever been able to do anything to him? Today, not only was he going to bombard XI jingxing, he was going to bombard Chen Xiangxiang as well. “And you, What’s wrong with you? It’s one thing for you to save your mother, but don’t you have your own aesthetic standards and preferences? Why do you dress, speak, and act like a good-looking person? Are you trying to imitate others? Who are you trying to annoy?” Chen Xiangxiang was stunned. These questions were really merciless. Moreover, what made her most bothered was that Li Wei actually described her as an imposter! This was practically pointing at her nose and calling her an ugly monster! The image of her being “Similar to Yan XI”that she had created when she appeared on stage had completely collapsed at this moment. Everyone could not help but secretly size up the two of them and secretly compare them in their hearts. Just now, Yan Xi had already surpassed Chen Xiangxiang when she appeared on stage. Now, Li Weiran had found out about this matter and lashed out at Chen Xiangxiang, even hinting that Chen Xiangxiang had ulterior motives. Even Li Meiyun did not dare to say that Chen Xiangxiang looked like Yan Xi. In this deathly silence, Chen Xiangxiang finally could not hold it in anymore. Tears rolled down her face, making one’s heart break. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have come here. I’ll leave immediately!” With that, she turned around and ran out. The cold evening wind blew past her tottering figure, making one feel sorry for her. Yan Xi did not know that other people did not feel sorry for her, but she only knew that with Chen Xiangxiang running away, Xi Jingxing would most likely feel sorry for her. After all, Li Weiran and XI jingxing had not gotten along for many years. How could xi jingxing agree to Li Weiran forcing a little girl so aggressively? Li Meiyun’s son, Xi Yaohua, stood up abruptly. “Uncle, I’ll go chase Xiangxiang. It’s not safe for a girl to go out at night!” As he said that, he hurriedly ran out. Li Meiyun’s eyes flashed. “Mr. Li, why are you still so calculative with a little girl?” XI jingxing deeply agreed. Chen Xiangxiang had suffered enough grievances today, yet she was still humiliated in public by Li Weiran. This was simply too much! “Heh, you ran away crying after saying a few words.”Li Weiran did not speak, but Yan Yunzhi sneered. “Is this the attitude you have towards your elders?” He turned around and instructed Yan XI, “Yan Yan, I’m forcing you. Don’t say that you forced me to leave again later. You might as well come back to the Yan family with me!” Xi Jingxing was originally worried about Chen Xiangxiang, but when he heard that Yan Xi was going back to the Yan family, he immediately panicked. “Yan Yan!” Yan Xi pondered for a moment and glanced at XI jingxing. “Father, I’ll go back to the Yan family. The environment here is too noisy, and it’s not conducive to my recovery.” Yan Yunzhi was resolute and decisive. He left as soon as he said he would. He immediately got his men to pack Yan Xi’s luggage and left with them. He didn’t even want to have dinner. Li Weiran had ruined the welcome banquet and felt extremely carefree. She turned around to call Huo Xiao and the other brothers. “Let’s go. I’ll treat you to a meal at the Hundred Taste Pavilion.”
