Xi Ran sneered and slowly approached Xi Zhihui, lingering near his ear.

"What wouldn't I dare to do? You've committed such heinous acts, and all I'm doing is making you return the money you swindled and cheated out of, and pay back everything that's owed. What's wrong with that?"

Xi Zhihui shook his head frantically, making a whimpering sound.

Xi Ran couldn't take all his money; he still had Huang Jiao'er and their child to support.

Jiao'er and Ze'er are very precious; they can't be fed with simple meals.

Without money, they won't be able to survive.

He didn't want Jiao'er and Ze'er to suffer any hardship.

"Mmm...mmm..."

Xi Ran ignored this cold-blooded animal and turned to Li Xiuming.

"Uncle Li! Everything else is in your hands. Blow up every penny they have, pay off their loans, and leave them just enough for living expenses. Give the rest to Lin Bifan for his retirement. Make sure the three of them are well-fed and healthy, and eat plenty of coarse grains to cleanse their stomachs. As long as they don't starve, that's fine. If they dare to covet anything that doesn't belong to them again, send them straight to jail. If they're not afraid of going to jail, then let them make a fuss. I won't be soft-hearted then."

Li Xiuming roughly understood what Miss Xi Ran meant and nodded, "I know what to do, I will definitely satisfy you, just wait for the good news."

Huang Jiao'er initially hid to the side, pretending to be invisible, but after listening for a long time, she finally learned who this group of people were.

The little girl standing in front of them should be Xi Zhihui's daughter.

“You…you…you can’t take all the money; it’s my and Xi Zhihui’s joint property.”

Xi Ran sneered, her face expressionless, which looked rather eerie. Huang Jiao'er involuntarily took several steps back.

Huang Jiao'er was also frightened by the little girl. Just as Xi Zhihui said, Lin Bifan was a tigress, and her daughter was also a little tiger, not to be underestimated.

"Don't come any closer, what... what are you going to do..."

Xi Ran scoffed, "What do I want to do? What do you think? I didn't quite hear what you said just now, please repeat it."

Huang Jiao'er has been out in the world for decades; she's not someone a little girl can easily control.

Mustering his courage, he continued recounting what had just happened, each word spoken with force and conviction, which Xi Ran heard clearly.

“That money is the joint property of Xi Zhihui and me, and you have no reason to confiscate it.”

Xi Ran's lips curled slightly as she looked at Huang Jiao'er with disbelief, as if she were looking at an idiot.

"You're truly ignorant of the law. You don't even have this basic common sense. You encouraged Xi Zhihui to borrow money using Qian and Xi Yan's identity. Who borrowed the money is who is responsible for repaying it. And most importantly, you are just Xi Zhihui's mistress. You have no right to interfere in the affairs of our Xi family. I hope you understand this."

"Furthermore, Xi Zhihui and Lin Bifan are still married. If I remember correctly, the property certificate for that apartment is in both their names. I don't care how Xi Zhihui tricked Lin Bifan into selling the apartment. What I care about is that this is their joint property and has absolutely nothing to do with you, the mistress."

"Furthermore, you've been away for over four years and spent a lot of money. We have the right to recover it all. You won't even have a place to cry then. I studied law, so don't try to talk to me about this. You're not qualified, and you have no chance of winning."

Xi Ran looked at Huang Jiao'er with disdain and laughed, "However, I don't plan to get that money back. Consider it a gift to you. After all, you spent four years with an old man; it's worth that little bit of money..."

Huang Jiao'er was so angry that her face turned red. She never thought that one day she would be taught a lesson by a young girl.

He stood there for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

"Also, don't try anything funny. You've probably already seen my skills. These bodyguards aren't pushovers. You can try it if you don't believe me."
