Before she got married, she had very few opportunities to eat at the same table with the Xie family. Now that she was no longer a child of the Xie family, how could she possibly eat at the same table with them?

Xie Xuerong sighed: "Then I won't keep you any longer. After all, it's me who has let you down."

Xie Jing thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to keep apologizing to me. You are not my biological parents, so it's only natural that you don't love me. I used to complain about you, but after knowing my life story, I no longer blame you."

"You supported me, and Jiyun gave me something in return. We are even now."

She glanced at Xie Wuyang and said, "Jiyun is not that petty. He won't do anything to the Xie family's company."

Xie Xuerong and Xie Wuyang both breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Zhou Jiyun wasn't suppressing the Xie family's company. They were finally relieved. Xie Jing stood up and said, "It's getting late, we won't bother you any more."

Xie Xuerong and Xie Wuyang also hurriedly stood up: "I'll see you off."

Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun didn't refuse, so Liu Limin and Xie Wuyou could only grit their teeth and follow behind. They really couldn't like Xie Jing because she was really too smart.

Moreover, Xie Jing was no longer an orphan without roots; she had a powerful family background, which made the two of them feel even more unbalanced. However, they couldn't express this imbalance directly, because before Xie Jing could fight back, Xie Xuerong and Xie Wuyang would not indulge them in the first place.

As a result, Liu Liming and Xie Wuyou, mother and daughter, felt even more depressed.

After watching Zhou Jiyun and Xie Jing's car drive away, Xie Wuyou finally spoke: "She's fine. She left us such a big mess, but she can go back and be her third generation of red."

Xie Xuerong squinted his eyes and watched the taillights go by. "It's your fault that you were born in your mother's womb. There isn't much trouble between our Xie family and Xie Jing. If you had gone to find Xie Jing and caused trouble, you would have been sent back abroad."

Xie Wuyou immediately shut up. She wasn't stupid. She knew what it meant to go abroad and suffer, or to stay at home and live like a second-generation rich kid. But thinking about Xie Jing's success made Xie Wuyou feel uncomfortable.

Xie Wuyang knew his sister best, so he didn't mind making things clear: "The Xie family and Xie Jing don't have much grudge against each other. The Liu family is the one that truly holds grudges against Xie Jing and the Yun family."

"Uncle Liu and aunt Liu have already paid the price, and this matter ends here. Xie Jing returns these things today, and from now on, her grudge with our family will be over. If you cause trouble for her again, she will no longer care about you as her sister like before."

Xie Wuyou curled his lips: "When she beat me before, she didn't consider that I was her sister."

Xie Xuerong retracted his gaze: "You have never considered her a sister. Why does this world have to revolve around you alone?"

"I'm warning you, the company is very busy right now. If you dare to get involved with the Liu family, you'll have to leave the country tomorrow! I won't give you a penny!"

Xie Wuyou quickly shook his head: "Dad, I definitely won't contact grandma and my cousins. I'm not stupid."

Liu Limin was embarrassed: "You're being too harsh. After all, that's my mother's family..."

Xie Xuerong sneered, "Excessive? I haven't even mentioned the more excessive things yet. If the Liu family hadn't made this stupid move, why would it have come to this? Just bring the child home and raise him well. Is it okay for the Xie family to be short of food?"

"If you had treated her the same way you treated Wuyang and Wuyou over the years, even if her background was exposed, why would she be in this situation now? You and your daughter have driven yourselves to the brink of ruin, and now you're blaming me?"

Liu Limin was insecure: "Wuyang Wuyou has so many things to worry about every day, how can I take care of them all?"

Xie Xuerong sneered, "Those who understand will understand." Xie Wuyang sighed, "Go in. This is how it will be from now on. Wuyou, listen to me. Don't go looking for Xie Jing, and don't contact the Liu family."

"They themselves have bad intentions."

Xie Wuyou bit her lip and could only agree. No matter how unwilling she was, the fact was already like that and she had no choice but to accept it.

***

Zhou Jiyun knew that Zhou Zhida had been sentenced, and Old Man Zhou must have also heard the news. He was already furious because of Jiang Cha's miscarriage, and now after hearing the news that Zhou Zhida had been sentenced to death, Old Man Zhou finally fell ill.

The once prosperous Zhou family has now fallen apart. Zhou Jiyun is the only person left in charge of external affairs. Zhou Zhida has been sentenced to death, and Zhou Jiwen will also serve a ten-year prison sentence.

Fang Qin was also devastated by her miscarriage due to Jiang Cha. It can be said that Zhou Jida is the only one left in the entire second house.

During dinner, Zhou Jida sat at the table, and Butler Zhong stood on one side. Zhou Jida glanced at Butler Zhong and said, "Grandpa didn't eat lunch. If he doesn't eat dinner, his body won't be able to bear it."

Butler Zhong sighed: "I tried to persuade your grandfather, but he said he had no appetite. I called the family doctor and asked him to give him glucose after he fell asleep."

Zhou Jida's lips curled up slightly: "Is that so? I'll go see Grandpa?"

He said this, but he sat motionless in his chair. He knew very well that if he went to see the old man at this time, the old man would only vent his anger on him, so he would not take the initiative to go to him, but he had to show his filial piety.

Butler Zhong stopped him: "Don't go, your grandfather doesn't want to see anyone now."

Zhou Jida lowered his head and said dejectedly: "Oh, I understand."

He found it a little unbelievable. He remembered that in his previous life, when he was ten years old, the old man was still in good health. He was able to force Zhou Jiyun to recognize him, and there was no sign of decline.

But now that the time has been advanced by five years, the old man's health has deteriorated to this extent? It must be because of his heart disease. Thinking of his past shame and grievances, Zhou Jida couldn't help but clench his chopsticks.

Now that Zhou Zhida's sentence has been handed down and Jiang Cha's child is gone, as a good younger brother, shouldn't he go visit Zhou Jiwen? After all, both his eldest brother and he have been reborn, so shouldn't he let his good second brother know the news?

The three brothers are all here, and no one should be left behind.

By the way, how is his good second brother doing in prison now? He found a connection and asked someone to take good care of him, but he didn't know how he was doing. Thinking of this, Zhou Jida's mouth slowly curled up into a strange smile.

Butler Zhong saw it unconsciously, and felt a chill on his back, and a chill in his heart for no reason.

The Zhou family members all had their own grievances. When Grandpa Zhou fell ill, Zhou Jiyun also fell ill. Xie Jing had been mentally prepared and was very alert when she rested at night.

When she noticed something was wrong with Zhou Jiyun, she acted quickly. Yun Zhao, returning from meeting his parents, also came over to check on Zhou Jiyun. He was practically delirious from the fever, and even then, he was still clutching Xie Jing's hand tightly, making it impossible for anyone to speak to him.
