This trick of Xia Wei's is usually always effective and allows her to quickly integrate into other people's circles.

Xia Yunxi pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that the lesson from last time still hasn't taught you a lesson."

Xia Wei's face turned slightly ugly because of what happened last time.

Just because Xia Yunxi clearly pointed out that she and Zhao Rui had slept together, Zhao Rui ignored her for several days after he returned.

Xia Wei suppressed her anger and said, "Sister, what are you talking about? Such a big thing happened five years ago. Can you really hide it?"

Children are most likely to sense changes in adults' attitudes.

Li Jinchen clearly realized that these people had bad intentions towards "Mom", and he hid behind Xia Yunxi in fear.

With a pair of innocent eyes, he looked warily at the women dressed like peacocks.

Xia Wei noticed Li Jinchen's actions and raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "Besides, sister, the child has already been born, you can't deny his existence, right?"

Whether this child was Xia Yunxi's or not was not important. What was important was that she had to establish this fact in the eyes of these daughters of the aristocratic families.

As long as Xia Yunxi's reputation is ruined, I don't believe she can return to the Xia family!

Xia Yunxi looked down at Li Jinchen. Although Jinchen was not raised by her side, he was her son after all.

Xia Yunxi could not deny this, but these could not be the targets of Xia Wei's attack on her.

"Xia Wei, I remember that your last name wasn't Xia before. Just because you moved into the Xia family, do you think you're a member of the Xia family? Let me give you a piece of advice. Instead of wasting time worrying about other people's affairs, you might as well take care of yourself! After all, not everyone can succeed in getting promoted like your mother." Xia Yunxi's words were obviously metaphorical.

And no one present is a fool.

Xia Wei's mother, Bai Fangzhen, was a ballroom dancer who met Xia Yunxi's father and was able to rise to prominence...

How can we not admire his extraordinary means?

After all, with the development of the Xia family in recent years, Bai Fangzhen is the true Mrs. Xia.

She truly transformed from a dancer into a wealthy wife.

But her daughter Xia Wei stole Xia Yunxi's boyfriend, but it has been five years and there is still no news of their marriage... The eyes of the few young sisters following behind Xia Wei also changed slightly when they looked at her.

Xia Yunxi successfully noticed the change in Xia Wei's expression. She had cold eyes and a calm demeanor, and asked directly.

"It's been five years now. You've snatched Zhao Rui away, so why hasn't he married you yet?"

Xia Wei suddenly clenched her hand around the bag, the iron chain digging into her palm. The slight stinging helped her suppress the rage rising in her chest.

"Sister, you're joking. Zhao Rui has been busy with his career these past few years. Besides, we're still young and there's no rush to get married."

"Oh, so that's it... I thought that with the status of the Zhao family, they might not necessarily look down on a stepdaughter of the Xia family." Xia Yunxi said with sudden realization, but there was a hint of indifference and arrogance on her cold face.

She glanced at the socialites behind Xia Wei, as if to say, is a stepdaughter worthy of their association?

Xia Wei's face turned pale and red. "Xia Yunxi, we are sisters. Why are we so confrontational?"

"Wasn't it my sister who started the trouble from the beginning?" Xia Yunxi was extremely surprised.

Only Xia Wei is allowed to slander others and throw dirty water on them at will... and no one else is allowed to fight back?

Xia Wei raised her head and looked at Xia Yunxi, "I think there is a misunderstanding between us sisters."

"It was a misunderstanding. She stole my sister's fiancé and became a mistress like her mother... I'm afraid this misunderstanding will never be resolved in this lifetime." Xia Yunxi said lightly.

"Sister, why are you teasing me here?" Xia Wei said, "Mom and Dad truly love each other. I know you can't accept it right away, but so many years have passed. Why can't you understand Dad?"

"Also, five years ago, you didn't know about this bastard you gave birth to with someone else... Dad doesn't even know about it. Have you ever considered how Dad would feel?"

Xia Yunxi's eyes suddenly turned cold. "Who are you calling a bastard?"

"Isn't it?" Xia Wei glanced at the vague glances from all around her, and the anger in her heart finally dissipated a little.

She calmed herself down, determined not to let Xia Yunxi provoke her and lose her composure. "The things here are so expensive, can you afford them, sister? Do you want me to pay for your nephew?"

"Xia Wei, you're just like your mistress." Xia Yunxi said coldly, looking at the clerk standing beside her, "Go pack up everything you just tried. I want them all, and I want two."

Li Jinchen looked at his "mother" with sparkling eyes, full of admiration.

"Mom" really wants to buy him clothes.

The clerk was stunned and couldn't react for a long time.

She was still immersed in the customers' gossips among each other, thinking that she could tell her sisters some gossip later about what a great family this was.

The next second, Xia Yunxi asked, "Want to take away all the ones we just tried? Or a double portion?"

That would be at least several hundred thousand...

Just as the number flashed through the clerk's mind, Xia Yunxi's hoarse voice stretched out the tone: "What, is there a problem?"

"No, no, no, no problem, no problem--" the clerk waved his hands quickly and turned to pack the clothes.

Xia Wei bit her lips. She didn't believe that Xia Yunxi would be so rich after leaving the Xia family.

"Sister, you don't have to hold on. If you don't have money, I can lend you some..."

"Don't worry about this, sister. You should take care of yourself when you have time!" After Xia Yunxi said this, she took Li Jinchen's hand and went to the counter.

Xia Wei was unwilling and also hated it the most. Xia Yunxi pretended to be calm and composed.

This look made her look like a clown.

"Xia Wei, let's go somewhere else! Standing with people like this makes even the air feel polluted." One of her companions behind her said.

"That's right—" Someone immediately followed suit, fanning his nose as if he had really smelled something stinky.

"Let's go to the luxury goods counter over there. I heard they just released a new bag this year. It's a limited edition and it's really beautiful."

And there was only a girl standing at the back of them, who was silent, with a thoughtful look following Li Jinchen who was being pulled by Xia Yunxi?

Why did she feel that the child looked so familiar?

Xia Wei was dissatisfied. They were just a group of poor people from a declining family. If her mother hadn't told her that the families behind these people could bring benefits to the Xia family, she would not have lowered her status to get together with these people.

Despite her impatience, Xia Wei couldn't hide her disappointment and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go over and take a look... You don't know, my sister has cut off contact with our family since that incident five years ago. I don't know where she gets her money from. Spending here must be over a hundred thousand dollars at a time, right?"

When she said this, the sisters looked at each other in surprise.

Then they took a look at this children's clothing store, and everyone's curiosity was aroused.
