Chapter 876 Not Interested
Father Nie's excited accusations did not affect Nie Yao. Nie Yao simply smiled faintly and said calmly, "Dad, I've never asked for anything. I came back to recognize you, not for the family fortune. So, I'm not interested in the family fortune dispute, and I don't intend to participate..."
"You--" Father Nie was angered by Nie Yao's indifferent attitude, and his voice became a little serious.
"Ayao, even if you're not interested, you're still my daughter and a descendant of the Nie family. Do you want to watch the Nie family decline because of the division of family property?"
Father Nie didn't allow Nie Yao to refuse and said coldly, "I know the Nie family has wronged you, but this time, as a member of the Nie family, you must not turn a blind eye to the Nie family's disputes! Dad supports you in your archaeological research and hopes that you can shoulder the responsibility of being the eldest granddaughter!"
After he said this, he hung up the phone and left the rest to Nie Yao to think about!
Nie Yao wanted to say something, but found that her father had hung up the phone angrily. She could only shrug helplessly and return to the archaeological site.
Steve had just finished a round of survey data and handed it to Nie Yao, saying with a smile: "Senior sister, this is the data we just surveyed, take a look -"
Nie Yao took the data and replied in a low voice: "Steve, thank you for your hard work..."
"It's okay, I'm used to it..." Steve shook his head and took a sip of the iced mineral water. Noticing that Nie Yao wasn't in high spirits, he asked with concern, "Senior, what's wrong? I saw you were on the phone just now. Was it Mr. Li? Did you guys have another fight?"
"No, he is my biological father!" Nie Yao shook his head and answered indifferently.
"What does he want to see you about?" Steve had met Nie Yao's biological father at the engagement ceremony of Nie Yao and Li Jinxing before, but because of the quarrel the Nie family had at that time, he didn't have a very good impression of the Nie family.
Looking at the expression on Senior Sister's face, I'm afraid that if she calls, it won't be a good thing...
"Senior, could it be that your father doesn't allow you to do archaeology and wants you to go back and inherit the family business?" Steve guessed cautiously.
Nie Yao was amused by his speculation and raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Why do you think so?"
"After all, your family is wealthy. Isn't that how it's usually portrayed on TV?" Steve scratched his hair and said with a wry smile.
"My grandfather did have this plan before, but I rejected it. Now he's calling me to go back because there's a big fight at home over the division of the family property!"
Nie Yao said this with a hint of sarcasm on her lips: "He had an illegitimate daughter, but he wants to drag his family members to help him solve the problem. How ridiculous!"
"Illegitimate daughter?" Steve was stunned for a moment, then immediately became interested, with a look of curiosity on his face: "Who is it? So exciting?"
"What do you think?" Nie Yao did not answer.
"Let me guess—" Steve's mind raced when he saw the senior's expression. He immediately understood something and asked with wide eyes, "Is it Nie Jinxi who's having a grudge against me?"
Nie Yao just smiled and said nothing, but she had already told Steve the answer.
"It's her, no wonder she dislikes me so much. She's probably jealous and envious. After all, her status is not up to par..."
Steve sighed and became more and more contemptuous of Nie Jinxi.
