Chapter 987: Something Must Be Wrong


Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations


At this moment, the Xia family had already blocked the signal, and Qiao Xi was unable to contact the outside world. Under the siege of everyone, it was impossible for her to escape. Yet she still dared to be so arrogant?


Xia Cheng no longer pretended, and his face was filled with viciousness. “Qiao Xi, immediately post a statement online and say that it’s just a misunderstanding. Say that someone was deliberately slandering Mengyan. Mengyan has always been very good to you, so she definitely wouldn’t ruin your marriage!”


Qiao Xi said casually, “It’s easy to be struck by lightning if I lie too much. I won’t do such a thankless task.”


Everyone’s gazes immediately became fierce. However, Xia Mengyan still pretended to be a good cousin and patiently advised, “Xi Xi, do you know that this matter has already affected the company’s reputation? You’re also a member of the Xia family. Can you bear to see Grandpa worry about the company at his age?”


Then, she looked at Xia Cheng and comforted him softly. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. Xi Xi won’t be so heartless. She’ll definitely help us.”


Qiao Xi lazily leaned against the chair and slowly closed her eyes. After all, out of sight, out of mind. It seemed that one of the reasons Xia Cheng forced her to attend the family banquet was to help Xia Mengyan clear her name.


Although Xia Mengyan had already recovered her image by criticizing Xia Tong, there were still some people who thought that she had offended Gu Zheng and was unwilling to collaborate with the Xia family. Hence, they needed someone to clarify this matter.


If she really clarified things for Xia Mengyan according to the Xia family’s instructions, the Xia family would soon hire a group of fake commenters to spread rumors online. They would say that she deliberately led Xia Mengyan around and made Xia Mengyan think that she was engaged to Gu Zheng, causing her reputation to be ruined. That way, Xia Mengyan would be the one who was wronged from beginning to end.


Qiao Xi had long seen through these people’s thoughts. Her icy-cold gaze swept past everyone. All of them had ulterior motives, but there was one person who was different—Xia Ji’s wife.


Madam Xia was completely different from the rest of the Xia family. She always lowered her head like a frightened bird, and it was as if no one took her seriously. What made Qiao Xi even more puzzled was why Xia Mengyan was so distant from her biological mother and was very close to Xia Yunlou instead.


There must be something wrong. She really should investigate Madam Xia’s background.


Xia Cheng’s eyes were filled with anger. When he saw that Qiao Xi did not agree, his gaze became fierce. Since she was not cooperating, then she could not blame him for being heartless. When she was poisoned, she would obediently listen and look for the medicine until she found the right antidote. It could be considered as benefiting the entire Xia family while fulfilling her value.


When he thought about this, Xia Cheng turned around and gestured for Xia Yunlou to pour the wine. Then, he looked at Qiao Xi with a gloomy gaze. “Xi Xi, since you’re unwilling, I don’t want to force you. Let’s have a toast, then. Let’s let bygones be bygones. We’ll get along well in the future. After all, we’re family. Why go against each other?”


Qiao Xi lowered her eyes to look at the gla.s.s of wine. The wine was clear and suffused with a strong fragrance. She could not see anything wrong with it, but she was aware that there was poison in the wine. She raised her eyes and swept her gaze across the Xia family. Everyone’s eyes carried resentment and antic.i.p.ation. They hoped that she would immediately drink this gla.s.s of wine and be obedient after being poisoned.


Qiao Xi’s gaze suddenly landed on Madam Xia, who was not far away. She saw Madam Xia staring at the wine gla.s.s with a burning gaze, then she looked at Qiao Xi. Her eyes were filled with anxiety and a trace of horror. She was afraid that someone would notice that she was reminding Qiao Xi.


Xia Ji followed Qiao Xi’s gaze and turned around to glare fiercely at Madam Xia. She immediately lowered her head and was terrified to the point her entire body trembled. She did not dare remind Qiao Xi anymore.


Qiao Xi was slightly surprised. Madam Xia was completely different from the rest of the Xia family. She actually tried to signal her not to drink.


She picked up the wine gla.s.s, and the hearts of everyone in the Xia family rose as they stared at her hand with burning gazes. They urgently hoped that Qiao Xi could drink that gla.s.s of wine.


At this moment, Song s.h.i.+yu, who was hiding in the dark, looked serious and clenched his fists. As long as Gu Zheng gave the order, he would break in to protect Young Madam.


Everyone could tell that there was something wrong with this gla.s.s of wine. If Young Madam really drank it, she would definitely be hurt. However, if Young Madam did not drink it, how could those hungry wolves let her off?


Qiao Xi raised the wine gla.s.s to her lips, but she suddenly stopped in the next second. She held the wine gla.s.s a little farther away and said casually, “Old Master Xia, I agreed to come to the Xia family to retrieve my mother’s belongings. Shouldn’t you give them to me first?”
