Xu Miaodan felt the disdain in her father’s words as she looked at his furious expression. Hate filled her heart. She had always known that this family was all about appearances and self-interest. Whatever kinship they had was all a lie, and she had never actually believed in it right from the start.
“Father, how much of the Xu family’s business was developed by me? Don’t go saying that I’m worthless. It’s you who’s old and worthless. You keep looking over the same businesses without letting go of those that hindered us from growing!” Two can play this game. Since her father was not being nice, he shouldn’t blame her for being vicious as well.
Master Xu widened his eyes and stared unbelievingly at Xu Miaodan. She was his daughter, and yet she said such malicious words. He pointed his finger at her as his lips trembled, unable to put into words the fury he felt.
Xu Miaodan continued, “I will explain it to the Jiang family. If they’re willing to listen to me, then I would take over the Xu family. Everything will be mine since I want it.” She spat out a mouthful of blood after saying this and rubbed her swollen face. She then turned away to leave the house.
Master Xu recovered in an instant and grabbed Xu Miaodan. Seething with rage, he slapped her again and again. “How dare you say those! It was a waste raising you! You are not my daughter! You are not—”While Master Xu was beating Xu Miaodan, Yun Dong ‘coincidentally’ passed by and shielded the latter’s body from Master Xu’s blows. She shouted, “Don’t hit Miss Xu! Don’t hit Miss Xu! Miss Xu is a good person! You’re the bad person!”
While Yun Dong was being hit, she took the chance to score a few hits on her body and face. Within a short time, her face was badly bruised, and she looked horrible.
Xu Miaodan couldn’t believe that this girl, who she always looked down on, would protect her. She staggered at this thought, turning her world upside down.
Even in her beaten state, Yun Dong still smiled in a silly manner at Xu Miaodan, “Miss Xu, hurry… Leave now…” Finally, she collapsed and fainted.
Because of this incident, Yun Dong successfully gained Xu Miaodan’s full trust.
When Xu Miaodan left the Xu family, she took this girl with her. Even though she used to look down on her, she now she felt that having her by her side was pretty good. Furthermore, the psychiatrist said that this girl was mentally challenged, so there was no need to be overly cautious and guard against her.
As for Yun Dong, she reported any strange movements of Xu Miaodan to Yun Bixue. The former obviously didn’t know that her every action was being closely monitored now.…
After a few days, Yun Bixue realized that the entire Ning An City seemed to be under strict surveillance. When she asked Xie Limo about it, he refused to answer her, so she could only ask Xie Liu, who also kept his silence.
“Xie Liu, this is not counted as betraying Young Master Xie. As his wife, I’m just worried about him. I want to understand him better so that I can protect him better as well. I want to protect him with you guys too.”
Xie Liu eventually gave in and told Yun Bixue about their encounter with the One-eyed Viper on the highway.
Although Xie Liu didn’t disclose the full details, there was still fear lingering in Yun Bixue’s heart. What if something really happened that night? For this reason, she mobilized the Yun family’s men of sacrifice and tasked them to find the assassins.
The One-eyed Viper and the Demon hid for a long time until they received news from their fellow assassins. They chose a time and attempted to escape in the middle of the night, but they were ambushed in a large scale attack.
The Demon was arrested, and the One-eyed Viper lost a leg. Their companions were all killed as well. This incident caused an uproar worldwide. International mercenary groups listed Xie Limo under tasks they would not accept because, despite the sky-high bounty on his head, he was too powerful and difficult to take down. Aside from that, the group that attempted to kill Xie Limo was also under an international kill-on-sight order by the Xie family.
