Xue Zhelangās reaction was the same as everyone elseās.
It was shocking to see Patriarch Xue, the patriarch, who had been lying on the sick bed for so long, suddenly walk out by himself.
However, after looking at who was next to the patriarch, Xue Zhelang couldnāt help but draw in a breath.
The patriarch was followed by a beautiful young woman.
The woman was around twenty years old, tall, attractive, and elegant.
She walked by the patriarchās side with a neutral expression, but without being robbed of her luster.
What was more, when she walked over, everyoneās gazes turned from the patriarch to hers.
However, it was Xue Zhelang who was most shocked.
At this moment, Xue Zhelang wanted to shout.
Why was Xia Xibei here, and by the patriarchās side?
Looking at the other people around the patriarch, their attitude towards her was so respectful!
People from the Xue family were very arrogant.
This was not surprising. After all, the Xue family was the richest in Ao City!
The family was even known internationally.
When they were out and about, they were very snobbish.
However, in front of Xia Xibei, these peopleās arrogance seemed to never have existed and they wanted nothing more than to bend over.
What the hell was this⦠Situation?!
Xue Zhelang was confused, and he could not figure out the story here.
Wasnāt Xia Xibei hiding from the online outcry?
Instead of coming out to explain herself, she came here?
What the hell was going on?
Xue Zhelangās body stiffened as he watched Xia Xibei walk over step by step.
An absurd speculation surfaced.
Was it possible that⦠Xia Xibei had something to do with the patriarch?
At this thought, he couldnāt help but laugh sarcastically.
It was hard to believe that Xia Xibei couldnāt find a benefactor elsewhere, so she came to the patriarch for support?!
The patriarch, after all, was the richest man in the city, and if he could help, Xia Xibeiās problems were not an issue at all.
Even if she couldnāt get along at home, she could go to other countries.
Xue Zhelang had these thoughts, but his mind was still blank.
He didnāt dare to admit another thought in his mind, and this speculation made his face freeze.
Under the eyes of the crowd, the patriarch walked with Xia Xibei in front of the crowd.
The patriarchās pace was heavy and slow, but it was steady, step by step.
Seeing his powerful movements, the whole hall was silent.
Even the children were controlled by their parents to keep them from making a sound.
Soon, the patriarch took Xia Xibei to the front of the crowd, stood, looked around, and then showed a big smile.
After lying in bed for so long, unable to have any semblance of autonomy, only to be manipulated by the doctors and nurses, it was really unbearable.
Now that he was finally on his feet and could stand in front of everyone and could face everyone openly, he felt great!
āOkay, everyone is here. I have an announcement to make.ā
The patriarch brought a smile to the corners of his mouth.
The old face also looked much younger at this moment.
Hearing the patriarch had something to announce, everyone could not help but perk up their ears.
Could it be about succession?
Sure enough, the patriarch spoke up, āWe asked everyone to come back to talk about the matter of inheritance.ā
Immediately, everyoneās eyes widened and their breathing became rapid.
