Although Su Xiaoxiao spoke very softly, Shan Jinxi and Shan Jiaxi next to her heard her. After watching his young wife enter the house, the murderous intent in Nangong Yi's eyes became clear when he looked at the three members of the Shan family.

“Brother Shan, I finally understand why you were so determined to leave this place back then. What’s so special about having a family like that, even if they were incredibly wealthy?”

"I'm sorry I dragged Xiaoxiao into this," I hope you...

"They first disregarded the friendship between my grandfather and Grandpa Su, and now they've viciously humiliated my wife. I'm determined to settle this score. Even if Jiaxi pleads for leniency, I won't let these three get away with it." Nangong Yi didn't need Shan Jinxi's apology.

Besides, he never implicated Su Xiaoxiao.

The shameless behavior of the three members of the Shan family reminded Nangong Yi of the Su Taihong family of three once again.

...

inside the house.

After Su Xiaoxiao and Shan Jiaxi entered the house, both of them looked sour, but they didn't confront each other as usual. Instead, their eyes kept looking outside at the same time.

"Young Madam, this is bird's nest soup that Madam and Master specially brought for you this afternoon to nourish your body. It's just been stewed in the kitchen, please drink it while it's hot." The old housekeeper noticed that Su Xiaoxiao's face was a little pale, so he immediately brought out the tonic soup that had been stewed in the kitchen.

"Young Madam, the young master asked the kitchen to postpone dinner. When would be a more suitable time to serve it?"

"The food is ready to be served. Also, please prepare two extra sets of bowls and chopsticks." As Su Xiaoxiao said this, she turned her gaze back to the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Shan Jiaxi, why are your parents still so shameless in causing trouble? Do you think their actions towards your older brother can be resolved with just an apology?"

"I will no longer concern myself with their affairs!" Shan Jiaxi said this with utmost seriousness.

He hated being tied down more than anything in his life, and preferred running entertainment venues to managing the Shan Group.

For example, his 'Rose Aegean Sea' has long surpassed the current Shan Group in terms of profits. However, he has never mentioned these things to his family. He always pretends to be nonchalant, so his family naturally wouldn't make that connection.

"Su Xiaoxiao, you really didn't scold me wrong."

When Shan Jiaxi thought of Su Xiaoxiao as Su Xiaoxiao, she had scolded herself more than once.

She just said the same thing in front of everyone, which made him even more determined.

"I only just found out that in their eyes I'm just a money-making tool."

"Shan Jiaxi, you are actually much happier than your brother."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Shan Jiaxi's hurt expression but felt no sympathy for him whatsoever.

He had no idea what his parents were doing to Shan Jinxi in private. If Shan Jinxi hadn't forbidden him from telling anyone, she really wanted to give him a good beating.

When the other person looked at her with a furrowed brow, Su Xiaoxiao snorted rudely.

"Shan Jiaxi, do you know what happened to Brother Jin when he first arrived in France? Your parents and grandfather, whom you consider good, actually hired the most ruthless thugs in the area to deal with him. If my grandfather hadn't been on guard beforehand, Brother Jin would have been dead in France long ago."

"What did you say?"

Shan Jiaxi looked at her in disbelief, unable to accept it at all.

But Su Xiaoxiao only gave a cold smile, her eyes filled with contempt as she looked at him.

"If you don't believe me, go check it out in France. In the first month after Brother Jin arrived in France, he was hospitalized three times. The last time he was hospitalized, he had three broken ribs!"
