Chapter 289 Xia Houyi Falls into a Trap
What Qin Lang hated most in his life was playing with other people's feelings, or the behavior of those in high positions bullying the weak, and Xiahou Yi happened to be one of them.
Qin Lang saw the old bitch's youthful struggles as nothing more than a cheap act! When normal girls dated you, the son of the Xiahou family, you thought they were after your money. But when you transformed yourself into Xia Haotian, and someone loved you, not your money but your soul and your body, your soul was rotten. You insisted on constantly testing other people's feelings, ultimately leaving them physically and emotionally wounded. As a result, their lives were miserable, and you just walked away?
As a man, Qin Lang actually understood better why Xiahou Yi wanted to leave. Any words he said were out of guilt or something else were all lies. It was simply because Xiahou Yi believed that no matter how much Yan Siyu loved him, she was no longer clean. In order to save face, Xiahou Yi would not say it directly, but chose to use the method of family marriage to make Yan Siyu, who was already inferior at the time, retreat on her own.
It was only since Xia Haotian revealed Xia Houyi's identity that he subtly told Yan Siyu that you are not worthy of me, and if you are sensible, you should break up with me on your own.
Qin Lang knew exactly what these dirty men were thinking. He had seen too many scumbags, of all kinds, too numerous to count.
Xia Houyi, who was lying there, had no idea that he was being scolded over and over again. At this moment, he seemed to see the young Yan Siyu in a trance, and waves of guilt came over him. In fact, he knew it.
When Yan Siyu was bullied, he was also shocked by the incident, so he asked his parents for help in anger. In the end, those people were sent to prison, but for some reason, Xiahou Yi always felt that after seeing Yan Siyu, he felt that the other party was blaming him and accusing him, so Xiahou Yi escaped.
He couldn't accept such a look, so he told Yan Siyu as a matter of course that he was being forced into marriage by his family, so... you have to be sensible and give up me on your own initiative.
I didn't abandon you. I just really couldn't resist my family because I've lost everything just to be in love with you. My family can't accept you. Not to mention that you're an orphan, and your current situation...
A month after the incident, Yan Siyu took the initiative to break up with Xiahou Yi. Xiahou Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately started to mingle with other women again. This time, he no longer worried about whether the other party loved his money. Anyway, with the surname Xiahou, Xiahou Yi knew that he would have endless money in his life, so he quickly forgot about Yan Siyu.
Even when he later married Chen Shan under the arrangement of his parents, he didn't think too much about it. This man with a head filled with weeds only cared about his own mood.
Now that he is older and softer-hearted, he met Xia Anan again. Xiahou Yi did not expect that Yan Siyu really gave birth to this child, although he was very sure that it was not his child.
That’s right, even Chen Shan didn’t know that after Chen Shan gave Yan Siyu 10 million, Xiahou Yi actually learned from a friend that Yan Siyu was pregnant. He was very scared, afraid that Yan Siyu would come home to blackmail him after she became pregnant. At that time, Xiahou Yi thought Yan Siyu was a devil.
The Xiahou family performed an amniocentesis on Yan Siyu and confirmed that the child was not from the Xiahou family. Xiahou Yi did not show up throughout the whole process and only breathed a sigh of relief when he confirmed that Yan Siyu's child was not his.
But now thinking about it, he really hurt the only person in the world who loved him the most besides money.
Later, Xiahou Yi had no news of Yan Siyu, but he didn't expect that Yan Siyu still used the surname Xia after giving birth to the child. It was not the Xia of Xiahou, but... the Xia of Xia Haotian.
When the two were in love the most, they thought about what to name their future child. They wanted to name the boy Xia Cheng and the girl Xia Meng.
Now... she is in another world, and it is time for me to atone for what happened back then.
Xiahou Yi's vision gradually became clear, and he was sure that the person in front of him was Xia Anan, not Yan Siyu in his memory.
"It's An An... I didn't expect you were still guarding an old man like me."
He sighed, and Xia Anan immediately responded gently.
"Grandpa, are you feeling unwell? Do you need to call a doctor? Don't worry, I will always be with you and take good care of you."
As Xia Anan said this, the smile between her eyebrows was more similar to Yan Siyu's back then, especially the dimples on her lips when she smiled. When Xia Houyi lay here, he felt as if he was back in the rental house.
So many people approached him for his surname, for his money, and for his powerful parents, but only Yan Siyu loved Xia Haotian, the only Xia Hou Yi after she gave up money and power.
At this moment, Xiahou Yi saw Xiahou Xi beside him and finally confirmed his thoughts.
The doctor came over soon and examined Xia Houyi. He confirmed that Xia Houyi's operation was very successful and that he could be discharged from the hospital after resting for half a month.
Xia Houxi felt relieved when he knew that his grandfather was fine. Then he stayed with the old man in the ward. Mainly, Xia Anan was with him. Xia Houxi still had his own work to do. He would have to make phone calls and sign things soon. The so-called domineering president was different from what was written in many novels. Xia Houxi was very busy at work. He received dozens of calls a day. He was really busy.
Qin Lang, the butler, has a lot of free time. He just needs to stay by the side. The servants do the work, not him, the butler of the Shangguan family. Xia Anan has the responsibility to speak, not Qin Lang.
The next day, Mr. Shangguan finally brought Xiahou Feng over. They talked to the old man for a few words and then parted on bad terms.
Xiahou Feng was originally concerned about his father, but when he entered the door and saw Xiahou Yi holding Xia Anan's hand, his face suddenly turned cold. He started to argue with Xiahou Yi, and before leaving, he was still concerned about whether Xia Anan was being taken advantage of.
It can be said that Xiahou Feng and his brother were both victims of their father's harassment of women when they were young. These identities included but were not limited to tutors, class teachers, and even piano teachers. It was extremely disgusting.
In Xiahou Feng's mind, his father was a sex-hungry ghost who would harass any woman he saw. Now that he was so old, he was still holding a little girl's hand, which was really disgusting.
Xia Anan naturally said no, but she had other plans.
Xiahou Feng came and went in a hurry, and Xiahou Yi was unhappy, but Xia Anan was there to coax him and talk about some old stories, which made Xiahou Yi happy again.
Even at this time, Xia Houyi, the old Bidden, refused to tell Xia Anan that the former Xia Haotian was him. He just kept asking Xia Anan about how her grandmother had described Xia Haotian.
"Grandma said that was her first love, and the only person she had ever loved in this world. Because she was an orphan, she actually lacked some love. So when that person appeared in her world, she felt like the whole world lit up..."
Xia Anan is gently telling the love story between her grandmother and Xia Haotian.
[Yes, yes, yes, Xia Houyi is just a big light bulb. When she appeared in your grandma's world, your grandma's world was brightened up. Hey, this old Bidden actually believed it! Why do I feel that Xia Anan is deceiving people? With the attitude of old Bidden, if he ran into someone selling health products when he went out, would he be ripped off with his pants?]
Qin Lang was speechless in his heart, but his face remained gentle.
Xia Anan ignored all this. She was already used to Butler Qin's occasional cursing, so her face was still full of smiles.
Within the next week, Qin Lang heard Xia Anan talking about how much her grandmother loved Xia Haotian in the past, the regrets, the touching moments, the memories and love she had in the past. She even shed tears when she talked about the deep feelings, and Xia Houyi, who was lying on the hospital bed, also cried with her.
Qin Lang was speechless about this, but Xiahou Xi remained silent after seeing this.
He knew that the clothes Xia Anan was wearing were similar styles that her grandmother had found based on the photos of Yan Siyu taken that year. Even Xia Anan's makeup was like Yan Siyu's back then. When her grandfather saw this, he would only feel more distressed and miss the relationship they had back then.
This is what happens when people get older, they add filters to things from the past, whether they are friends or old lovers.
So a week later, Xiahou Yi finally asked that question according to their plan.
"An An, I see you don't have a boyfriend right now. What do you think of my Ah Xi? Ah Xi is about your age and has a successful career. I also like you to be my granddaughter-in-law. Do you think about Ah Xi?"
When he said this, Xia Anan was stunned at first, and her heart was overwhelmed with great joy. Then she heard the voice of Butler Qin.
He's here, he's here! He's here with his grandson's engagement! Oh my! I couldn't marry your grandma back then because I was forced to, not because I was a scumbag and abandoned her! That's why I couldn't spend my life with her. Now that our children can be together for life, this is the most touching thing in the world! I'm talking to you, old Biden! Are you fucking crazy? Don't you think about what you're thinking about all day? You don't care about the Xiahou family's business, but you just arrange the future wife for the Xiahou family heir? Don't you even consider whether you are the right person for the locks?
Xia Anan was already used to this and said with a shy expression.
"I'll listen to Grandpa."
Sure enough, Xiahou Yi was in a good mood when he saw Xia Anan was so well-behaved. When Xiahou Xi came later, he arranged for Xia Anan to go out first and tell his grandson about this matter.
"Ah Xi, An An has been taking such good care of me lately. I think An An is a good girl. You've never been in a relationship before, so let Grandpa make the decision now. Let An An be your fiancée. As long as you two get married, I will give 20% of my shares in the Xiahou family to An An, which is also a gift to you."
When people get old, they are always moved by themselves. When Xia Houyi heard Xia Anan say how much Yan Siyu loved Xia Haotian, he was even more moved. He felt that he had let Yan Siyu down in the past, and it would be no problem for him to take care of her granddaughter now.
"...Grandpa, I don't like Miss Xia, and you can't decide my marriage, Grandma will arrange it."
Xiahou Xi immediately showed an expression of resistance. If he accepted it too easily, Xiahou Yi would become suspicious. Xiahou Xi's opposition at this time made the old man Xiahou Yi snort coldly.
"Your grandma arranged it? Let me tell you! Your grandma has been eyeing my shares for so many years. How much do you think she loves you? She's only looking for a suitable match for you, a rich girl from a similar social class. Isn't it all about money?"
Xiahou Yi sneered, then tempted his grandson.
"As long as you stay with An An, I'll give you 20% of the shares of Xiahou Group. Isn't that easier than marrying a girl from outside? If your grandmother knew about this 20% share, she would definitely agree to you marrying An An."
...Grandpa is still so stupid.
Xia Houxi made an embarrassed expression on his face and stood up.
"Grandpa, I don't want to. Don't say that. I won't agree."
He quickly left the ward, but Xiahou Yi felt confident that Chen Shan would never let go of the 20% stake.
Qin Lang stayed outside with Xia Anan. He looked at Xia Houxi with some surprise when he came out, and heard Xia Houxi talking to Xia Anan.
"The old man took the bait. He used 20% of the shares of Xiahou Group to ask us to get engaged and married."
Xia Anan also nodded immediately.
"First refuse, then agree, so that he can get psychological satisfaction, and then get 20% of the shares."
Qin Lang listened to the conversation between the two and for a moment he suspected that he had misread the plot and his eyes widened.
Oh my god! We were supposed to be forced into marriage? So you two already planned this for Old Biden's shares? What on earth did I miss? I don't understand this plot...
