"You old bastard, I've put up with you for too long. Since your granddaughter is so great, then get out of our house and go find your granddaughter!"
At the entrance of Yinhe Jiayuan, Li Fengjiao threw Grandma Xia's luggage hard on the ground, put her hands on her hips, glared angrily, and shouted loudly.
The image of a shrew is vividly portrayed.
Grandma Xia's eyes widened in disbelief as she roared angrily, "Li Fengjiao, how can you do this? Is there no law, no justice? This is my home, the home I've built with half my life's blood, and you're kicking me out!"
She never expected that her daughter-in-law, Li Fengjiao, would be so presumptuous and rude, kicking her out of the house, which infuriated her.
Li Fengjiao sneered several times, her words sharp: "Your home? What proof do you have? My husband is the head of the Xia family, what's it to you?"
After speaking, she turned her gaze to Xia Zhonghai, waiting for his reply.
Xia Zhonghai nodded calmly, his expression serene, as if everything was understood without words.
Grandma Xia's heart tightened, her brows furrowed with incomprehension and anger. "Even so, he is still my son, who is connected to me by blood."
Li Fengjiao curled her lips into a cold smile and said mockingly, "Your son? How can you prove it?"
Grandma Xia was furious. Everyone knew this, yet Li Fengjiao still wanted to prove it.
This is absolutely outrageous!
She was about to defend herself when Li Fengjiao interrupted, saying, "He himself didn't admit it, which means you two aren't mother and son at all."
That's right!
Just now, when Li Fengjiao said that Xia Zhonghai was talking about her husband, the other party immediately nodded in agreement. However, when Old Mrs. Xia said that Xia Zhonghai was talking about her son, the other party did not react at all.
Shocked, Old Mrs. Xia looked at Xia Zhonghai with worry and unease in her eyes. "Zhonghai, tell him yourself whether you are my son or not."
Xia Zhonghai looked troubled, and finally slowly uttered a few words, tinged with a barely perceptible sense of guilt and helplessness, "Grandma, I'm sorry..."
"What did you call me?" Upon hearing this, Grandma Xia was struck dumb, unable to believe it.
She could understand Li Fengjiao's rudeness, after all, she was just her daughter-in-law and they had never gotten along.
But Xia Zhonghai's indifference and aloofness were like a sharp arrow piercing her heart, leaving her utterly heartbroken.
Xia Zhonghai took a deep breath, his tone cold but his words clear: "I apologize to you not because I feel guilty, but because your actions have wronged the Xia family."
Grandma Xia looked on in bewilderment and asked in a trembling voice, "What wrong have I done? How could you treat me like this? Even if I have done something wrong, you are the son I carried for ten months and gave birth to. You watched as she turned me away, not only not helping me, but also blaming me."
At this moment, Old Mrs. Xia felt as if her heart was being torn apart. She never expected that the son she had raised with such painstaking care would treat her so coldly.
Xia Zhonghai's eyes were icy as he slowly said, "Last night, you showed favoritism towards Xia Xue and Wu Tian in front of the Sun family. Do you know how serious the consequences of this action will be?"
Mentioning this matter, he was filled with uncontrollable rage, and continued through gritted teeth: "Today, Wu Tian challenged the Sun family, and he will surely die. His death is not a pity, but if this angers the Sun family, how can the Xia family withstand their wrath?"
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Xia suddenly realized what was going on, and shook her head with a sigh: "Just because you are afraid of the Sun family, you have abandoned your old mother. With such behavior, how can the Xia family prosper?"
"Haha, you can rest assured about this matter!" Li Fengjiao's laughter suddenly rang out, tinged with a hint of smugness. "You should be familiar with the Jin family of Rongzhou, right? Last night, the eldest daughter of the Jin family, Jin Lingyun, personally came and concluded a deep cooperation agreement with us. The Xia family's rise is just around the corner!"
Just as Xia Zhonghai was preparing to send Sun Changsheng's body to the Sun family, Jin Lingyun, the eldest daughter of the Jin family, arrived unexpectedly, bringing the Xia family an unprecedented opportunity for cooperation.
Although Old Mrs. Xia knew nothing about what happened last night, Li Fengjiao's words still shocked her, leaving her with mixed feelings.
Just then, Li Fengjiao's voice, like a cold wind, announced icily: "Now, you can get out. The Xia family will soon prosper, and all of this will have nothing to do with you."
Grandma Xia's anger turned into a grief-stricken cry that trembled the air: "I...I won't leave. This...this is home. You...you have no right to drive me away."
Li Fengjiao's lips curled into a mocking smile, her cold laughter like a knife. "Since you refuse to listen to reason and are forced to drink the penalty cup, then don't blame me for being impolite. Get him out of here."
Before she could finish speaking, the Xia family's security guards swiftly approached, grabbed her from both sides, and were about to throw her out of the house.
"stop!"
Just at this critical moment, a thunderous roar pierced the sky, and a young man in black strode towards them with agile steps, casually tossing the security guard aside with one hand.
"Wu Tian? You... you're still alive?"
The Xia family members looked at each other, shocked and deeply moved.
Wu Tian's gaze was piercing, coldly sweeping over Xia Zhonghai and Li Fengjiao, his words devoid of any warmth: "I will not die, but you will die soon!"
Although Wu Tian's voice was not loud, it contained a powerful force, as if the Grim Reaper controlled everyone's life and death.
Xia Zhonghai and Li Fengjiao were terrified and dared not look him in the eye, fearing that his knife would be turned on them.
"Grandma!" Just then, Xia Xue rushed over like the wind, tightly supporting the old lady Xia, her anxious eyes full of concern: "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Upon hearing the news of Old Madam Xia's expulsion, she and Wu Tian rushed over immediately.
Seeing her grandmother in such a disheveled state, her heart ached, and tears welled up in her eyes, which she stubbornly held back.
Grandma Xia gently stroked Xia Xue's hand, whispering comforting words, "Grandma is fine, but you and Wu Tian..."
After she finished speaking, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes. Xia Zhonghai had mentioned Wu Tian's challenge to the Sun family.
She knew all too well the power of the Sun family; they were the sky and the authority in Linhai City. Wu Tian's trip was bound to end in certain death.
But at this moment, the two people in front of her stood unharmed.
Xia Xue glanced at Wu Tian with her eyes, her voice carrying a hint of tenderness, and explained, "Brother Tian has already been to the Sun family."
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Xia's brows furrowed with confusion: "Then why did the Sun family let him come back?"
The Sun family was so powerful that it made the world tremble, and anyone who challenged their authority was destined to die. Therefore, she was filled with doubts and confusion.
This doubt not only lingered in her mind, but also quietly took root in the hearts of everyone present.
Xia Xue shook her head gently; she didn't know the details either.
She originally intended to have Wu Tian tell her the details, but Wu Tian rushed here as soon as he got home.
Wu Tian, however, replied casually, "That's simple! Just wipe them out!"
