Chapter 553: The Devil is More Powerful
"Huaiyu, take it back and return it."
"People's words are scary. This watch is not worthy of Xiaoying, and she can't control it. Xiaoying is still too naive. She doesn't know that behind wealth lies a murderous intention."
Xie Huaiyu was stunned. "What happened?"
"Oh, don't ask anymore, Huaiyu, we admit it."
"We are poor and have low aspirations. I have already taught Xiaoying a lesson, and she has agreed to return the watch."
"Kelan, tell me, what happened?" The more Xie Huaiyu heard her say this, the more anxious he became.
He unconsciously put his arms around Qiao Kelan's shoulders.
"It's all over, Huaiyu, it's okay."
"I originally asked you to buy a watch because Xiaoying is a naive child. I'll just teach her a lesson."
"Kelan, if you don't tell me, I'll be angry." Xie Huaiyu frowned.
"I……"
"Okay, then I'll tell you."
"Actually, Xiaoying was bullied at school."
"What?" Xie Huaiyu was completely surprised.
"Is there still bullying in college?" Xie Huaiyu always thought that it only existed in junior high school and below.
"There are good people and bad people everywhere, and there's a lot of bullying in college. After getting this watch, Xiaoying loved it and kept wearing it. But then rumors started to spread, and on such a large scale, it must have been man-made. Within half a day, the whole school was buzzing with rumors that Xiaoying was being kept by a wealthy businessman."
"The rumors became more and more outlandish, with some even saying she had given birth to a child for a wealthy businessman."
"Xiaoying is still a child and hasn't graduated yet. This had a huge impact on her. She cried all day."
"It was mainly because of this incident that the school was alarmed."
"The school leaders even talked to her."
"Although it's not true, this conversation makes it seem more likely to be true."
"This child told me today that he wanted to die."
After hearing this, Xie Huaiyu's face changed drastically and he slammed the table.
"How can this be possible?"
"Whoever said that, I'll go find them."
"This is all spread by a group of students, but I don't think those kids are that scheming. Why do I feel like there's an organization and a large scale?"
"But Xiaoying is very honest and has never offended anyone. Who wants to kill my daughter?" Qiao Kelan also started crying.
"Kelan, don't cry, I'll take care of it."
"Huaiyu, I'm actually afraid..."
"I know you might think I'm trying to instigate things, but I'm really afraid your family is doing this to exclude me and our relationship. If you have any problems, come to me, but don't hurt my daughter. She's the only one I have."
After saying this, Xie Huaiyu's face became even gloomier.
"I'm not doubting your son. Your son shouldn't do such a despicable thing..." Qiao Kelan explained again.
"It certainly won't be Nancheng. He wouldn't bother to do that."
Xie Huaiyu knew his son very well, and this kind of petty quarrel was not Xie Nancheng's style.
When Xie Nancheng attacks, it means he is beating someone to death with half his life.
I simply disdain the war of public opinion.
"Then...could it be his wife?"
"This method sounds like a woman's method." Qiao Kelan tried while crying.
"No, Nancheng's wife has a good personality and is not that kind of person."
"The person who can make your son obsessed is not a simple person, Huaiyu, I'm not trying to instigate this, I just think that your daughter-in-law is not as simple as you think."
"Don't worry, it won't be her."
"She never even fought my sister and brother so fiercely before."
"I will definitely not attack Xiaoying now."
Xie Huaiyu had a very good impression of Tu Ran.
He was also scheming. Even when Xie Huailan and Xie Huaishan were making such a fuss before, Tu Ran didn't take any action.
He saw all of this with his own eyes.
So don't do anything under his nose.
"Then...is she your wife?" Qiao Kelan asked deliberately.
"I know who it is, leave it to me."
"As for the school, leave it to me as well."
"Take the watch back and let Xiaoying wear it without worry."
"If I can't protect you and your daughter in Xiangcheng, then my life as Xie Huaiyu will have been lived in vain."
Qiao Kelan and her daughter aroused Xie Huaiyu's desire to protect her when he was young.
No man likes a woman who is too strong, as that would make him seem worthless.
Over the years, my wife has been too independent and not gentle enough.
Instead, Xie Huaiyu did not fall in love with her sincerely and treated her as a friend and relative.
Now, Qiao Kelan and her daughter like to play the role of the weak, which just hits the spot for him.
After Xie Huaiyu made the bold statement, he stood up, took the car keys and went out.
The next second, Qiao Kelan wiped away her tears and smiled.
That Zhou Han, right?
At such a young age, you want to fight her? It's really unrealistic.
How much does this mean he looks down on his opponent?
An hour later.
A high-end Cantonese restaurant in Hong Kong.
Xie Huaiyu, Mrs. Xie, and Zhou Han sat together.
Zhou Han's face was full of surprise. "Godfather, why did you think of inviting me and godmother to dinner today?"
"Your godfather wasn't a stingy person to begin with, he just wasn't good at talking. Now he should have come to his senses." Mrs. Xie felt very honored that her husband had taken the initiative to treat her to a meal, and she immediately felt in a good mood.
Xie Huaiyu sighed and spoke directly, "Xiao Zhou."
"I came here specifically to see you today."
"Godfather, is there anything wrong?" Zhou Han realized that something was wrong.
"Could you please stop interfering in my family affairs?"
This one sentence made Zhou Han feel extremely embarrassed.
She looked at Madam Xie beside her with an unpleasant expression, "Godmother, I..."
"Husband, what does this mean?"
"Why are you saying this about other people's children?"
"Do you need to?"
"As for what it is, you know it clearly, or rather, the three of us all know it... I don't want to make things too awkward. No matter what, what happened between my wife and I is a private matter of our Xie family. Although you are nominally my wife's goddaughter, you are not a member of our Xie family."
"If Nancheng doesn't get involved, then you, as an outsider, shouldn't get involved, lest you get into trouble. What do you think?"
For Bai Yueguang's sake, Xie Huaiyu directly scolded Zhou Han.
Such a blunt criticism really embarrassed her, and she even felt a little embarrassed.
Zhou Han suddenly had tears in his eyes, but he couldn't say a word.
"What's going on?"
"You don't tell me what it is. What if Hanhan is wrongly accused?" Mrs. Xie was very unhappy.
"You know it very well in your heart, why are you asking?"
Xie Huaiyu looked at his wife with a complicated look in his eyes.
Mrs. Xie knew that her husband was cheating on her, but she never revealed the truth.
Only by pretending not to know can you have a chance of winning.
So naturally I didn’t dare to bring it up in that regard.
But right now, staying deadlocked here is not a solution.
"Nancheng Dad, what are you doing..."
"Godmother, stop talking."
"Godfather is right. I really don't dare to meddle in the Xie family's private affairs. It's because I don't know the rules." Zhou Han seemed very careless and took the initiative to admit his mistake, which made Mrs. Xie feel very uncomfortable.
"Don't let the disaster happen to my family. If you have any dissatisfaction in the future, you can come to me directly. There is no need to disturb others."
Xie Huaiyu was defending the mistress in both his words and deeds.
Mrs. Xie's anger suddenly flared up.
"Xie Huaiyu, don't go too far. You did something wrong yourself, and you still have the nerve to criticize others?"
"What did I do? You should tell me in detail." Xie's father was also overwhelmed by anger and talked about sensitive topics.
