Chapter 440: Disgusting Hypocrisy
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the evening, Duan Yanxing sent over two videos. They were high-definition and uncensored, showing the scene of Su Yuanchao gambling with a lot of money. After that, Duan Yanxing called the police. Although the police arrived quickly, the group of people had already escaped through a few secret doors.
No one expected that the person who crawled out of the sewer might not be a repair worker, but a young Master from a wealthy family. Su Yuanchao escaped with his face covered in dust, climbing over the wall of the washroom. He was clearly on a roll, but he didn’t know which traitor had cut off his path to wealth. If he found her, he would skin her alive.
Of course, he could not escape from Duan Yanxing’s phone.
After Lin Wanli received the video, she was nervous because she didn’t know what she would bring to the Xu family. It could be a new life, or it could be eternal damnation.
Huo Jiuxiao knew what she was thinking, so he patted her shoulder and advised, “Even if it wasn’t you, this day would have come sooner or later.
Besides, you’re just giving the choice to the person involved. It’s her choice whether she wants to negotiate or expose you. You don’t have to feel guilty about it.”
Lin Wanli nodded. Then, she sent the video to Mother Xu along with a message.
“Auntie, I’m very offended, but I think you should make your own decision.”
Mother Xu didn’t know what she meant at first. After watching the two videos, she was trembling all over because she didn’t know that Su Yuanchao had such a hobby. Back when he went on a blind date with Xu Huiwen, he was refined and looked honest. Moreover, he listened to Xu Huiwen’s words. Even Xu Huiwen herself was deceived by Su Yuanchao’s appearance. However, when his daughter was born, his true colors were revealed. Because Xu Chonglou was unwilling to open the back door for him, his son-in-law, and Xu Huiwen had a daughter, Su Yuanchao vented all his anger on Xu Huiwen.
It turned out that he was not only a beast, but also a gambler.
Was she going to show mercy to this kind of son-in-law?
A few minutes later, Lin Wanli sent over another list. It was a list of the Su family’s partners. There were a few hidden partners, and Huo Shengyuan’s name was at the top.
Huo Shengyuan had known about Xu Huiwen from the start. So, the Young Master of the Huo Family knew about her daughter’s tragic experience and got close to the person who caused the tragedy. Wasn’t he too familiar with backstabbing?
“Shameless! Shameless, a child born by little San is indeed not a good thing.”
Mother Xu scolded. To think that she had politely and thoughtfully greeted Yun Shujing and her children. She did not expect that there were such things behind their backs. They were simply shameless.
“Wanli, are you sure about this?” Mother Xu called Lin Wanli immediately after she saw the name list.
“Auntie, I have no reason to lie.” Lin Wanli answered seriously, “I know that the Xu family doesn’t like to be involved in these inner court conflicts, but we can’t be deceived. I just want you to have a scale in your heart.”
Indeed, no one in the Xu family would engage in any normal exchanges and scheming with Mother Xu. This was because those people had used all their schemes on her, so there were not many who had the heart to do so. However, Lin Wanli had discussed scheming and the human heart with her. This allowed her to finally find someone she could discuss with. Regardless of whether she did it or not, or how she reacted, Lin Wanli seemed to be able to give her opinion.
“I understand what you mean. I won’t get into a conflict with them, but these two people disgust me. As for the other things, I’ll think about it first.”
The conversation between the two did not last long, but Mother Xu’s mind suddenly became unusually clear.
Xu Huiwen hadn’t heard the child cry since yesterday. She was much calmer and had fewer episodes. She could also take the medicine prescribed by the doctor, so she slept through the afternoon. Mother Xu had not seen Xu Huiwen sleep well for a long time. This made her realize that she had finally made the right decision.
In the afternoon, she secretly went to see Aunt Seven and Tina taking care of the baby. Both of them loved children very much. They had endless feelings and experiences for children. It seemed that they were not tired of playing with children. Mrs. Xu had carefully observed the little darling of the Huo Family.
He was fair and chubby, and he was very cheerful and liked to smile. Seventh Aunt even tied two small braids for Youran. The little girl was the cutest when she was running and jumping.
There was also Anan, Aunt Seven, and Tina who took turns to hug and coax her. They even talked about what nutrition supplements they needed to give the child.
Mother Xu had seen it in secret, so she was willing to believe that everyone here would treat her daughter and granddaughter well.
It was ironic. Xu Huiwen’s closest family had shackled her, and the man she loved the most had given her pain and illness. On the other hand, it was a stranger who had given her enough care and kindness. From the looks of Lin Wanli and Huo Jiuxiao’s friends and servants, their character was not bad. Mother Xu was very relieved. Then, she put away her phone and silently had some ideas in her heart.
If she couldn’t even protect her family, then what was the use of her name in history?
A bastard like Su Yuanchao should have gone to hell long ago.
As for Huo Shengyuan and his wife, Mrs. Xu didn’t Imow what her husband was going to do, but she decided to stay away from them. Cooperating with Su Yuanchao and giving him money was equivalent to stabbing her daughter.
After settling her daughters down, Mother Xu planned to return home at night.
It was nighttime, and it started to drizzle in Deer Terrace Pavilion.
After dinner, Mu Qingya was still in the pavilion to digest her food. It was at this time that Yun Shujing called to ask about the situation at Deer Terrace Pavilion.
Despite the twists and turns, Mu Qingya still told Yun Shujing about Xu Chonglou’s favor and the support of her uncles.
“Mom, Shengyuan is drinking with them now. Don’t worry, no one can take his
pmce.
“That’s good. Tomorrow, Huo Qingxiao will bring those two b*stards to our door. We’ll act according to the situation and let them know what it means to be close and distant.” Yun Shujing instructed over the phone.
“Don’t worry, Mom. Shengyuan has been in Deer Terrace Pavilion for so many years. Uncle Xu doesn’t like him at all. He treats him like his own son. He won’t let anyone take the initiative.”
Mu Qingya might not have realized it, but her words revealed a trace of pride. Unexpectedly, Mother Xu, who was passing by the pavilion, heard her words.
“Why don’t I remember having a son?”
Mu Qingya was shocked and quickly turned around. After being knocked down by Mother Xu, she hung up the phone awkwardly and apologized. “Auntie, you misunderstood. Mom was just a little worried about Shengyuan, that’s why I…”
“Even if you’re worried, don’t spout nonsense. If outsiders hear it, they might think you’re showing off. Don’t you think so, Qingya?”
After saying this, Mother Xu turned around and left, not giving Mu Qingya a chance to explain.
It was so hypocritical that it was disgusting..
