âHe really loves very much. All the troubles you encountered abroad were resolved by him. The person who regularly calls you is actually his assistant, not Xiao Qi Je. Your elder brother is boring, but he is not bad. You must get along with him well in the future. After all, he is also your relative and blood relationship should be strong.â Speaking of this stepson, Xue Miaoâs mood is actually quite complicated. He was also responsible for that incident back then. But she didnât want to mention it again when it was all over.
âOf course, big brother is good. I have always taken him as a role model ever since I was a child.â But Xiao Jia Shu had no resentment towards Xiao Ding Bang. It was the bad guy who kidnapped him. Why should the blame be placed on his big brother? Could it be that the eldest brother took him out so he could be kidnapped? No, such assumptions do not exist.
He called Xiao Ding Bang with a nervous and excited mood, after receiving a positive response, he worriedly said, âBig brother, thank you for helping me. Didnât grandfather say I should enter the entertainment circle under the Xiao family name? Wonât you be scolded for disclosing our relationship?â
At the other end, Xia Ding Bang, who received a call from his younger brother was also just as nervous and excited though he plainly said, âYou donât need to worry about him, big brother can handle everything. Your big brother is now in charge of the Xiao family, and no one is qualified to discipline you. Do whatever you want, donât worry about anyone or anything.â
âOh, then remember to come for dinner.â Xiao Jia Shu faced up to his brotherâs concern and love for the first time that he suddenly didnât know what else to sat and hung up the phone in a daze; bursting into a burst of laughter followed shortly after.
Xiao Ding Bang put down the phone and couldnât help but smile gently, straightening almost immediately to a poker face because Xiao Qi Jie was sitting in his office with an ugly face.
âA call from your brother?â
âYesâ
âHe invited you to dinner?â
âYesâ
âYour aunt Xue is coming too?â
âYesâ
âIf you say a few more words, would it kill you? You wonât tell them to come have dinner at home? If after such a big incident they do not return back home, do they still want to continue wandering outside? The old man will be pissed off by them sooner than later!â Xiao Qi Jieâs tone gradually became more anxious.
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man in question called and asked why Xiao Ding Bang wanted to remove Xiao Ding Ze from his post.
âGrandfather, there were dozens of poison capsules found stored in the warehouse. If I hadnât found out and acquired a new supplier early, do you think Xiao Pharmaceutics could survive until now? What did the second uncleâs family do? Let them be honest and not make me irritated. If they dare to move against Xiao Shu, I will ensure they leave China with nothing.â
Elder Xiao should only puff and grunt for a while. After all, he couldnât do anything to this grandson and could only retreat.
Xiao Qi Jie frowned and said, âDing Bang, itâs your second uncle, after all, donât be too hard.â
Xiao Ding Bang said slowly as he flipped through the various documents, âDad, do you know what your biggest problem is? It is a matter of closeness and estrangement. Why didnât you help Xiao Shu with all that had happened to him? You still want to threaten Aunt Xue with this incident. Do you know what youâll get with this? You will only push them farther and farther by going down this road.â
âI didnât help them? I was the one who found connections able to control public opinion in the first placeâŠâ
Xiao Ding Bang interrupted him, âYour solution was to suppress public opinion and then send Xiao Shu out of the country so as not to stain the Xiao family of this incident. Everything you do is focused on the Xiao family, but you would not go help Xiao Shu clarify the incident. Do you think no one has reported this matter? How can Xiao Shuâs reputation be restored?â
âWho is going to remember this in a few years? Anyways, the black material was fake. Even if the police come to investigate, what would happen to Xiao Shu? Nothing. Havenât you heard that those just and honest will naturally have everything clear up for them? Yet you want to make everything troublesome over your cousin and second uncle! If I send Xiao Shu abroad with a sum of money to start a company. Isnât it better than being an actor in China?â Xiao Qi Jie reprimanded badly.
âNo wonder Aunt Xue would rather give up everything and divorce you. Dad, you might as well move into the old house with your second uncle and old man. They obviously need you more.â Xiao Ding Bang put on his suit jacket and said indifferently, âIn the future, second uncleâs family should not ask me for anything. If I donât kill them all, I am not worthy of them. Iâll keep those dozens of poison capsules and bad debts so that they are unable to mess with Xiao Shu. Is 5% of the shares more important or not than life, let them think carefully before acting.â
Xiao Qi Jie was trembling with anger, but he couldnât do anything to his son. He took out his mobile phone and stared at it. His expression was very complicated, the screen displayed the video of Xue Miao holding a press conference. Her phoenix-like eyebrows, her scarlet lips and the eloquence of her words as she was talking. Her whole person exuded a strong and charming aura, just as the first time he first saw her. Everyone was listening to her and could not help but fall in trance. She had such a charm.
He fell in love with her at first glance, so passionately in love but forgot the feeling once married. Only then did he realize that Xue Miao was still the Xue Miao that he fell in love with, but they could never go back.
