"Miss me?" Xiao Hai said with a charming smile on the other side of the phone.
"I thought about it." Ye Haoxuan smiled faintly, and then said seriously, "Your grandfather wants to see you."
"No." Xiao Haimei refused without even thinking.
"The problem may be a bit serious this time. If you don't go, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive for long." Ye Haoxuan said.
"Is his illness serious again?" Xiao Haimei was slightly surprised.
"Yes, maybe your second uncle can't wait to seize power." Ye Haoxuan said.
"No, we can't give him an advantage. Just wait, I'll be here right away." After Xiao Haimei finished speaking, she hung up the phone in a hurry.
Xiao family.
"Meimei, you're here."
Seeing Xiao Haimei's arrival, Xiao Fuwen was obviously overjoyed, while his wife Su Qin's face turned dark.
Last time in Qingyuan, she condescended to kneel down to Xiao Haimei and beg for medicine. Now she saw the daughter of her former love rival, the illegitimate daughter of her husband, and it was strange that she looked so good-looking.
"I came to see if the old man of the Xiao family is really going to die." Xiao Haimei said calmly.
"What did you say? Little bitch, try saying it again." Xiao Zeyang was furious and stepped forward to point at Xiao Haimei.
"Let go and get out." Ye Haoxuan glanced at Xiao Zeyang lightly, and a cold light suddenly appeared in his eyes. The cold breath made Xiao Zeyang shiver, and he couldn't help but take his hand back.
"Ye, who do you think you are? How dare you speak to my father like that?" Xiao Wenjie glared angrily at Ye Haoxuan. He was taught a lesson by Ye Haoxuan several times. He obviously lacked the confidence to speak.
"If you want to die, I don't mind helping you." Ye Haoxuan glanced at Xiao Wenjie coldly.
Xiao Wenjie was startled, and he quickly took a few steps back, fearing that the murderer would suddenly step forward to teach him a lesson again.
"That's enough. The old man said that all relevant personnel of the family business and direct descendants should be notified in place. A family meeting will be held in three days to discuss the issue of the will, so hurry up."
It was only now that Xiao Fuwen showed his authority as the head of the family. Xiao Wenjie, his son, Xiao Yu and others walked out with unkind expressions.
"Dad, this bitch came to Xiao's house today. I'm afraid some of the visitors are not good-natured." Xiao Wenjie said.
"Humph, it doesn't matter what you said. How did you do the things I asked you to do? Didn't you say that you formed an alliance with Xue Hongyun and Tang Rui to deal with Ye Haoxuan? How come he can still come to our Xiao family to show his power now?
"Xiao Zeyang said angrily.
"Dad, we underestimated this kid before. He is not a good person." Xiao Wenjie shrank his head and said.
"Humph, it's useless. The old guy is dying. This bitch came back and wants to get a share of the pie. Humph, you think so well. You can't even get a penny from the Xiao family's property." Xiao Zeyang's
There was a hint of sinisterness on his face.
The last time I saw Xiao Yihong, he was still sleeping on a chair, but he looked older than before. The man who once dominated the shopping mall was already in his twilight years.
"Dad, Doctor Ye and Meimei are here." Xiao Fuwen stepped forward and whispered in his ear. He called several times, but Xiao Yihong didn't respond at all until Xiao Fuwen pushed him gently.
After a few times, he slowly opened his eyes.
"Ah, Doctor Ye, you're here." Xiao Yihong's voice was a little slow, as if his brain was not very clear.
"Mr. Xiao, let me feel your pulse." Ye Haoxuan sighed and walked forward. He slightly touched Xiao Yihong's pulse. His expression could not help but shudder. He glanced at Xiao Yihong in surprise.
Yihong, he happened to find that Xiao Yihong was also looking at him.
Ye Haoxuan understood something instantly. He silently put down Xiao Yihong's hand, and then sighed: "Old Xiao's condition... I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it."
"Doctor Ye, what did you say?" Xiao Fuwen's face changed drastically. He stepped forward hurriedly and said, "Doctor Ye, please take action to help my old man get through this difficulty."
"I'm just a doctor, not a god. The old man's energy is too exhausted, so I'm afraid I won't be able to make a comeback this time." Ye Haoxuan shook his head helplessly.
"Dad..." Xiao Fuwen almost cried.
Ye Haoxuan nodded slightly. Although his cheap father-in-law was useless, at least he was not as cruel as Xiao Haimei's uncle.
"Haha, Fu Wen, you know your destiny when you are fifty. I am already almost seventy this year. Sooner or later this will happen, don't worry."
Xiao Yihong paused for a moment, then sat up straight with difficulty, glanced at Xiao Haimei with a complex expression and said, "Meimei, after so many years, are you still angry with me?"
"I can't talk about being angry, because I don't deserve it." Xiao Haimei said calmly.
"Meimei, it was my fault in the past. Now, I apologize to you and your mother." Xiao Yihong suddenly struggled to stand up, and Xiao Fuwen on the side quickly supported him.
Xiao Yihong's rickety body trembled and he bowed deeply to Xiao Haimei.
Ye Haoxuan was shocked. Xiao Yihong paid such a grand tribute to Xiao Haimei. It seemed that he was really forced to a dead end.
"Can a mere apology make up for your mistakes back then?" Xiao Haimei said coldly.
"I know that I owe you a lot over the years, and I also felt sorry for your mother back then. Meimei, you are the only person in the second or third generation of the Xiao family who is suitable for business. I hope that you can let go of your past feelings towards me.
Resentment, lead the Xiao family well." Xiao Yihong sighed.
"What did you say?" Xiao Haimei was slightly startled. Hearing what this old man meant, he wanted to hand the Xiao family into his own hands? This is impossible. Will other members of the Xiao family agree?
"Three days later, please bring your mother's ashes. I will personally place her into the Xiao family mausoleum. At that time, all direct descendants of the Xiao family will be present. I owe this daughter-in-law decades ago. This time, I want to
Make up for it all." Xiao Yihong said slowly.
"Dad..." Xiao Fuwen's expression was shocked. He had already heard the implicit meaning of the old man. He never gave up, but this time he bowed to Xiao Haimei and wanted to hand over the management of the Xiao family to her.
"Fu Wen, you don't need to say it. Under you, who else in the Xiao family is suitable for business except Mei Mei? The Xiao family is the country that I have worked hard for many years. If you still want to maintain such a life of debauchery, if you
If you want to live a stable life in the capital, you must do this." Xiao Yihong said firmly.
Xiao Haimei hasn't recovered from the shock. She has already understood that the Xiao family is in chaos and the descendants are useless. At this time, taking advantage of the situation, she can annex the Xiao family. She did not expect that Xiao Yihong would take the initiative to show weakness and take the initiative.
Handing over the Xiao family to her was beyond her expectation.
"Why are you doing this?" Xiao Haimei asked coldly.
"Because I know that no one can protect the Xiao family except you. Besides, I was sorry to you mother and daughter. After I am gone, the Xiao family will fall into your hands sooner or later. Rather than letting you swallow all the bones,
, it’s better for me to hand the Xiao family over to you happily." Xiao Yihong said frankly.
"You are doing this just to protect the Xiao family, but your descendants may not accept your favor." Xiao Haimei said.
"Haha, just them? I believe they are not your enemy." Xiao Yihong laughed, with a bit of sadness in his laughter.
"Old guy, you know how to protect yourself wisely."
On the way back, Xiao Haimei sighed, "What a plan. In this way, not only will I not be able to annex the Xiao family, I will also have to protect their descendants."
"You can completely refuse, and then devour the Xiao family and let him die in peace." Ye Haoxuan said with a dry smile.
"How could he die so easily?" Xiao Haimei glared at Ye Haoxuan and said, "I was watching from the sidelines when you checked his pulse. I understood what was going on by your expression and the look in his eyes.
"
"You know everything?" Ye Haoxuan said with a bitter smile.
"Of course, this old guy is giving me a chance. If I don't agree to take over the Xiao family, then he will protect the Xiao family desperately. Even if he swallows up the Xiao family in the end, I won't be able to get it. Besides... I promised
Mother, I want to take her into the Xiao family cemetery in a dignified manner. Since the old man is willing to bow his head, there is no need for me to hold on to the original grudge.
It can be regarded as retribution that he fell to this point today." Xiao Haimei sighed slightly. She suddenly sat up straight and asked: "What do you mean by flirting with that old guy? Is his illness not serious?
question?"
"You've seen all this. You're so smart." Ye Haoxuan shook his head and continued: "Actually, his health is very good. I already knew it when I checked his pulse. He must have stopped taking the medicine your second uncle gave him.
I've prepared poison, and the reason why I'm pretending like this is probably because I want to take action against those disdainful descendants."
"Sure enough, I knew that this fox, if I hadn't seen your weird expression, I would have almost been fooled by him. But he is really good at acting. He pretended to be half-dead, and even his children and grandchildren were shocked.
It was really well-intentioned to be concealed." Xiao Haimei sighed.
"Why, you're not going to forgive him yet?" Ye Haoxuan asked in surprise. You know, Xiao Yihong has bowed his head and made amends for his mistakes back then, but Xiao Haimei still refuses to forgive him?
"Things haven't reached the last moment, who knows what will happen? This old guy, until now, he is still testing my ability. He will hold a family gathering three days later. He has passed on the Xiao family to me so early.
What's the purpose of revealing the matter?" Xiao Haimei said.
"If your second uncle and his son knew about this, what would happen to you?" Ye Haoxuan was horrified.
"That's right. Besides, as an illegitimate daughter, why should I control the Xiao family? What ability do I have to control the Xiao family? Will anyone from the direct and collateral families be convinced? This old thing is insidious." Xiao Haimei said lightly.
"Then I will send more people to protect you." Ye Haoxuan said.
"No need." Xiao Haimei shook her head and said, "I have my own plan."
