Chapter Three: Karma in This Life



The Su family.

"I've come to get something."

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao entered the house, she saw Su Dehong and his wife excitedly discussing the details of the homecoming banquet in the living room, but she paid no attention to them.

Based on Su Xiaoxiao's memory, she quickly found the bedroom, took the passport and some other important documents from the drawer, and then quickly went downstairs.

"Xiaoxiao, didn't Nangong Yi come back with you?"

Su Dehong had been looking outside for a while, and when he didn't see Nangong Yi, he inexplicably felt a sense of relief.

At least, the homecoming banquet wasn't held earlier than planned.

"He couldn't come, so I'm here for his homecoming banquet!"

With a sharp "slap," just as Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the woman next to Su Dehong angrily came over and slapped her.

"You brat, didn't you say everything was foolproof? Why wasn't there a homecoming banquet? Did Nangong Yi really reject you?!"

return the goods?

Looking at the elegantly dressed woman in front of her, Su Xiaoxiao knew that this woman was Su Xiaoxiao's stepmother, Li Yanyu. The mother and daughter had a bad relationship to begin with, and now that she had been the one to fawn over Nangong Yi, even Su Dehong had started to dislike his eldest daughter.

"You brat, you still dare to play dumb with us? Your father and I have heard that Nangong Yi didn't come home last night at all, but stayed at his little mansion outside. You don't know what kind of place that is, do you?"

A small mansion!

Su Xiaoxiao unconsciously frowned; this memory was not in her mind.

However, although Nangong Yi had a reputation for womanizing, she remembered her grandfather telling her: "Don't judge a book by its cover. If Nangong Yi were really a lecherous playboy, the Nangong Group wouldn't have become one of the world's top ten companies under his leadership."

"You brat, I'll see..."

Just as Li Yanyu was about to deliver her second slap, Su Xiaoxiao immediately grabbed her wrist and shoved her against a wall before she could react.

"You brat, how dare you push me! Just you wait..."

Li Yanyu had never been treated like this before, especially not in front of her husband.

But when she turned to look at Su Xiaoxiao, the ruthlessness in the other's eyes startled her.

This way.

Nangong Yi waited in the car for Su Xiaoxiao for twenty minutes. Seeing that she still hadn't come out of the house, the coldness on his face deepened.

"Young Master, shall I go and take a look?" The bodyguard asked cautiously as Nangong Yi checked his watch for the second time.

But at that moment, Nangong Yi suddenly opened the car door and got out.

Inside the room, Su Xiaoxiao stared coldly at Li Yanyu. Her piercing eyes made the couple feel a pang of unease when they looked directly at each other.

"Dad, stop scheming. You're willing to do anything to get me into Nangong Yi's bed after the wedding, just so you can use my pregnancy to ask the Nangong family for money. But I won't let you get away with it so easily."

From Su Xiaoxiao's memories, Su Xiaoxiao learned about the absurd motives of the three family members: the parents were after power and money; and the daughter, besides coveting the title of Mrs. Nangong, also hoped to live a life of ease where everything was done for her.

Su Xiaoxiao and her family are truly shameless to an outrageous degree.

“Nangong Yi’s money is mine. I would rather give it to a beggar on the street than use it to pay tribute to you.”

"you……"

Su Dehong was furious that his daughter would suddenly change her attitude overnight. He raised his hand, ready to slap her.

Having learned from her previous experience, Su Xiaoxiao quickly dodged away from Su Dehong when he slapped her, and immediately pulled Li Yanyu over to be her substitute.

With a sharp 'smack', Li Yanyu was slapped to the ground by Su Dehong, leaving a clear, bright red five-finger mark on her face.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it looks painful!"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Li Yanyu lying on the ground with a forced smile, and her mood instantly improved.

She had no memory of Su Xiaoxiao returning to her room last night, but she did see in Su Xiaoxiao's memory that she had drugged Nangong Yi.

"This is called karma in this lifetime. You'd better watch yourselves!"

Nangong Yi, who heard this outside the door, did not show much change in expression, but a clear look of disdain appeared in his cold eyes.
