Chapter 147

Zhou Mufan was furious, his eyes were wide open, veins popped out on his forehead, and he raised his fist to hit Zhang Kai hard.

However, at this critical moment, a strong hand tightly grabbed Zhou Mufan's arm that was about to swing out and pulled him back.

"Enough! Mu Fan, don't you think our Zhou family has lost enough face?" Zhou Muli shouted loudly, his face full of anger.

Zhou Mufan struggled hard, but Zhou Muli was too strong and he couldn't break free.

"Xia Ruo'an was originally your girlfriend! But you were the one who wanted fame and fortune, and you looked down on her and took the initiative to break up with her."

"Now look what's happening. Retribution has finally come! Just for a fake, you've completely offended the Xia family." Zhou Muli became angrier and angrier as he spoke, and couldn't help but scold Zhou Mufan.

In fact, before this, when Zhou Muli heard about this from his grandfather, he thought in his heart that maybe it might be a good thing for Xia Ruoan and Zhou Mufan to separate.

After all, there is a difference in family background between the two, and even the eldest aunt has always looked down on Xia Ruoan. If she really marries into the family in the future, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law may be a big problem.

But at this moment, looking at the chaotic situation in front of him, Zhou Muli couldn't help but sigh, and secretly sighed in his heart: "Now that I think about it, it is clear that their Zhou family is not blessed!"

"That golden phoenix was chased away just like that."

When the fact that Xia Ruoan was Grandpa Xia's granddaughter was made public, the entire Zhou family was thrown into great shock and chaos.

This was undoubtedly a heavy blow to everyone in the Zhou family, especially those who usually looked down on Xia Ruoan and regarded him as a humble person who came from a small county town.

They could never imagine that Xia Ruoan, whom they had always looked down upon, actually had such a distinguished background.

What was even more unbelievable to them was that Xia Lin did not go abroad as rumored, but had lived quietly in an inconspicuous county town in their city for more than twenty years.

Such a truth is really sad, and it also makes people sigh at the hardships and difficulties Xia Lin has endured over the years.

Mother Zhou was extremely emotional at this moment. She held Xia Meihui's arm tightly and questioned angrily: "You told me in person that you are Mr. Xia's only granddaughter!"

"But why is it that Xia Ruo'an suddenly appears to be Mr. Xia's granddaughter? Have you been deceiving our Zhou family?"

"Also, isn't your father Mr. Xia's illegitimate son? Then why doesn't Mr. Xia recognize you and your daughter, and instead declares to the public that Xia Ruo'an is his only granddaughter?"

A series of sharp questions came out of Zhou's mother's mouth like a string of cannonballs.

The more Zhou's mother thought about it, the angrier and more regretful she felt. She thought about how she had forced her son to break off his relationship with Xia Ruoan and get engaged to Xia Meihui in order to cling to the big tree of the Xia family.

He thought that by doing so, he could successfully get on board the Xia family and rise to prominence. But who would have thought that in the end, not only did he fail to curry favor with the Xia family as he wished, but he also completely offended them because of this matter.

At this moment, Zhou's mother felt dizzy, as if the whole world was collapsing in an instant.

"Mrs. Zhou, look at this, isn't it obvious? Your son's so-called fiancée is just following her father and changing her name in the hope of getting close to the Xia family."

"She is not a real member of the Xia family at all! I heard that Grandpa Xia has already spread the word that his only granddaughter is named Xia Ruoan!" Someone in the crowd laughed loudly, hoping for chaos.

"Oh my, Mrs. Zhou, you have such bad taste! You don't want the real daughter of the Xia family, but instead picked a fake one."

"If Miss Xia Meihui can please you so much, could it be that your son got her pregnant before marriage, so you had no choice but to marry her?" These harsh words came from the wife who had a grudge with Zhou's mother.

The two families had a business partnership, and as time went by, they gradually became familiar with each other and had some exchanges on weekdays. Unfortunately, she never expected that Zhou's mother looked down on her from the bottom of her heart.

Just because her appearance was not as well maintained as other wealthy wives, she was treated as a supporting role.

If someone hadn't been kind enough to play the recording to her later, she would probably still be kept in the dark!

When Zhou's mother heard this, she turned her eyes viciously to Xia Meihui who was standing beside her, and the anger in her heart was about to burst out.

She glared at Xia Meihui furiously, as if she wanted to cut her into pieces with her eyes, and she gritted her teeth and muttered, "This hateful woman actually dared to deceive our family! I absolutely cannot let such a liar marry into our Zhou family!"

At this time, Zhou's mother hoped that all this was fake and that there would be no children, otherwise their Zhou family would lose all face.

"Divorce! Immediately, right now! I'll let my son and you go get the divorce certificate right away!" Zhou's mother was so angry that she was shaking all over, and she shouted at Xia Meihui in a sharp and angry voice.

Those words filled with hatred and determination shot straight into Xia Meihui's heart like a sharp arrow.

Xia Meihui stared blankly at the shocking news announced by Old Man Xia at the press conference. She felt like she was struck by lightning and was completely unable to recover from this sudden blow.

She couldn't understand why it turned out like this. How could Old Master Xia be so heartless?

Knowing clearly that today was a crucial engagement party for her, he not only did not attend, but chose to hold a press conference at this time.

And the timing was just right. Just as her engagement ceremony had just ended, news about the press conference came out.

If you say there was no deliberate arrangement, she would never believe it even if you kill her.

Just when Xia Meihui's mind was in a mess and she hadn't figured out how to deal with the situation, Zhou's mother had already pushed her away mercilessly.

Because the hem of Xia Meihui's skirt was too long, she was caught off guard and stumbled and stepped on the hem of her skirt. She instantly lost her balance and fell forward.

With a scream, Xia Meihui fell heavily on the table filled with banquet food.

In an instant, all the drinks on the table seemed to have found an outlet and poured down towards her.

The gorgeous dress, which was originally as white as snow, was covered with mottled wine stains in the blink of an eye, looking disheveled.
