Chapter 63 Speculation
Ms. Li watched the fight between the three people from the other side. Sometimes when Ms. Jane couldn't beat the two, she would add fuel to the fire to help Ms. Jane.
The relationship between the two sisters-in-law has been average since they joined the Zhao family, but when facing the second and third rooms, they tacitly stand on the same front and will never allow a situation where the fisherman benefits from the conflict between the two.
Zhao Yunxin was feeling pent up in anger. She returned to her room and pounded the doll on the bed to vent her anger, her eyes moist.
Mrs. Lian opened the door and came in. Zhao Yunxin complained dissatisfiedly, "You knew I was being wronged in front of them, and she was deliberately embarrassing you and me. Why did you pretend not to see it and refuse to help me?"
"How can I help you? You can't win this kind of argument. In the end, you won't even get to go to the salon. It's all in vain."
Zhao Yunxin said unconvincedly, "Even if I can't go, winning verbally is still a win."
"Just now, it was just you and me, and there were four people on the other side. Except for Xiyan, all of them were cunning. Are you sure we can win in a verbal duel? Xinxin, some things need to be endured. It's useless to argue for a moment. Just like Zhao Yunyi, she speaks without restraint. Look how unpopular she is now. As much as your father liked her before, he hates her now."
Mrs. Lian then lowered her voice and said, "To be unlucky, she will definitely have the worst fate among you siblings. If there's an inheritance given to her, she won't be able to keep it."
Zhao Yunxin curled her lips and nodded reluctantly.
Mrs. Lian smoothed Zhao Yunxin's scattered hair. "Xiyan asked you to go to the capital with her before, why didn't you go? This time you came back, Xiyan and Yu Yin's relationship has become much closer. I remember that her attitude towards you two was similar before."
"The last time I went there, Vincent didn't welcome us. He was so cold. I don't want to go there again."
"He's always like this. Have you ever seen him being enthusiastic towards anyone? Besides, he's not in the mainland these days. You can't see him, so you don't have to judge his expression."
"Mommy, why do you suddenly want me to get close to Yu Yin? I remember you didn't care about her before. Isn't she about to divorce Vincent?"
"Your eyesight isn't good enough to see clearly. Do you think your sister-in-law's attitude towards Yu Yin has changed?"
Zhao Yunxin recalled the situation in the East Building, "The attitude has improved a bit."
Mrs. Lian then asked, "Your sister-in-law only respects the opinions of two people in the Zhao family: your father and her son. Who do you think is behind this?"
Zhao Yunxin suddenly realized who it was. "Why would he keep Yu Yin around? Won't they become alienated? The entire Liang Group has become his one-man show, and he's using the Liang family as a stepping stone. I don't know how they get along privately, but I don't think he likes Yu Yin that much."
She didn't know what Zhao Shunian was planning. Ever since he joined the Liang Group's board of directors, his series of actions had caused Liang's stock price to slump. Even though he did this, he was still pushed to the position of chairman by the board members.
Mrs. Lian was also thinking about this question. She was not sure of the answer, but she guessed that Zhao Shunian and other board members were preparing to divide up the Liang Group and each take a big bite of the fat meat. He was the butcher who was pushed up, and he had to bear all the blame.
Because of this speculation, and Zhao Xinzhi's recent movements, Mrs. Lian suspected that he was dissatisfied with Zhao Shunian's wasteful performance in handling the Liang Group and was preparing to replace him.
Even the wife is now undecided. Should she stick to the original plan or change it...
"Mommy, you haven't answered my question yet? Why didn't they get divorced like everyone speculated?"
Mrs. Lian's thoughts returned, and she analyzed the situation with Zhao Yunxin, "Yu Yin's relationship with the Liang family is average. She doesn't even spend as much time living at the Liang family's house as she does at ours. It's normal for her to not care about Liang's life or death. Vincent doesn't divorce her because he wants to show others that he's not cold and heartless. Besides, Yu Yin has no one to support him, so he can do whatever he wants. If he ever brings his illegitimate child back, Yu Yin won't dare say a word."
Zhao Yunxin asked curiously, "Do you think he already has someone else outside?"
"I don't know, it wouldn't be surprising if there was."
Mrs. Lian thought for a moment and said, "Ke'er is coming to Hong Kong City. She will stay here for a while. Please help me entertain her. Mommy knows you are the best person to help."
Lian Ke'er is Mrs. Lian's niece.
"When will she come? Does Daddy know?"
"Come over in a few days. Your dad knows. I've talked to him."
………
In his early years, the An family made their fortune in the underworld and was rich and powerful. After the 1970s, they began to keep a low profile and gradually shifted their focus to the white-world industries, and later entered the film and television industry.
Zhao Xiyan had originally planned to wait until she had some online fame before asking Uncle An to bring her into the entertainment industry. She hoped her parents would eventually agree to let her enter the industry for Uncle An's sake. However, she failed before she even started, and from the very beginning, she began to doubt whether she was cut out for this career.
Aunt An and Uncle An are both in their seventies. Although they are of the same generation as Zhao Xinzhi, they are ten to twenty years younger than him. Uncle An is the late-born son of his parents. Aunt An was a Miss Hong Kong winner and was very popular at the time. Even in her old age, she is still a beauty.
Aunt An saw the four Zhao family members who had come to the salon and asked about their well-being. She then asked, "Why isn't Xiqing here?"
Zhao Xiqing is Ms. Jian's second daughter. She and her younger brother, Zhao Boyan, have already moved out of the old house and have their own residence outside. They don't often go back to the old house. In their family, Ms. Jian and Zhao Xiyan live more in the old house.
"Xiqing is just like her father. She is so busy with work that she even forgets to come home. She flew to Australia to discuss a project before. But my little daughter is thoughtful and knows to stay with me." When Ms. Jane talked about her two daughters, the smile on her face became more genuine.
Aunt An took Zhao Xiyan's hand and said, "I knew Xiyan was always a good girl."
With Ms. Jian's prior hints, Aunt An acted more friendly towards Zhao Xiyan, pulling her aside to ask her about her life and introducing her to the wealthy ladies who came to attend the Xiangzhuan Salon.
Zhao Xiyan also played the role of a lady, but facing those ladies, her face felt like it was about to freeze when she smiled. She had never experienced a one-on-one blind date, but today she had a deep understanding of a one-on-many blind date, and the one she was facing was the other person's mother. It was like a novice falling into a hell-level dungeon. Ms. Jian taught that the most important thing for a blind date is to consider the other person's conditions.
Zhao Xiyan followed Aunt An closely. Ms. Li and Ms. Jian each had their own social circles, while Yu Yin was with Aunt An's daughter-in-law Zhong Wenyin, who was specifically asked by Aunt An to greet Yu Yin.
Yu Yin had only met Zhong Wenyin two or three times and they were not familiar with each other. She learned about the market for gigolos from Zhong Wenyin. At that time, at an event, Zhong Wenyin was talking to others and Yu Yin overheard her.
Yu Yin and Zhong Wenyin are both hotly discussed figures in the circle. When they mention one of them, they will most likely mention the other because their husbands are relatives.
