Chapter 765 Tang Qiwen's Instigation
Upon seeing Madam Xiao leave, Xiao Han merely stood up and glanced at her.
"Follow after Madam!"
After giving his instructions, he sat down again and did not leave with him.
Seeing this, Wan Qiqi lowered her head and sighed, "If you don't intend to hide this kind of thing, you shouldn't have said it. Things that can't be hidden should be said from the beginning!"
She also knew that it was not appropriate to tell Madam Xiao at that time.
Given Madam Xiao's personality, she would likely remain resentful, making it even more difficult for her to conceive.
"In fact, the Xiao family's situation was unstable in those years. If she couldn't successfully step down from the court, having no children was the best option for her!"
Xiao Han lowered his head as he spoke.
Everyone has their own worries.
It wasn't easy for the Xiao family to reach their current position, and it won't be easy for them to step down from it either.
Although things have settled down in recent years, Madam Xiao has fallen into anxiety.
This was something Xiao Han hadn't expected.
Back then, Madam Xiao was considered a lady from a prominent family in the capital. He never imagined that she would develop a heart ache because of these things.
"Your choice may not be wrong, but your mistake was not discussing it with her."
Wan Qiqi looked up at Xiao Han seriously, "Since my sister comes from a prestigious family, she should understand what you are saying. If you had made things clear to her from the beginning and discussed it with her, the result would not have been like this."
Xiao Han nodded without saying anything.
"Go! Make it clear to her that you two can discuss things from now on. She needs to be respected, not have her decisions told to her!"
Wan Qiqi gestured for Xiao Han to go after Madam Xiao.
Xiao Han paused for a moment, "Let me tell you about the next plan first, and then I'll tell her when we get back."
Wan Qiqiqiqi shook her head, "Let's talk about the plan next time. I hope you can consider her feelings first. I'm not in a hurry!"
Ultimately, because of Wan Qiqi's words, Xiao Han chose to leave and chase after Madam Xiao.
Doukou sighed as she watched what was happening before her eyes, "Actually, Young Master Xiao also cares about Madam Xiao, otherwise why would he act this way?"
"Little Doukou has fallen in love too?" Wan Qiqi looked at Doukou, her eyes crinkling with laughter, but there wasn't much joy in them.
"Is this the end of what I promised Xiao Huai?" she thought to herself.
Although it's impossible for Xiao Han and Madam Xiao to get pregnant immediately, once their misunderstandings are resolved, pregnancy is only a matter of time.
They will take the initiative to arrange it, so Grandpa Xiao doesn't need to worry anymore.
Suddenly, Feng Zhi appeared in Wan Qiqi's line of sight and pointed in a direction.
In the blink of an eye, Feng Zhi disappeared again, as if he had never existed.
She knew this was not an illusion, and looked in the direction Feng Zhi was pointing.
It was a corner, and there was an umbrella providing shade, so you couldn't see the person under the umbrella.
Wan Qiqi squinted and stared at the person under the umbrella for a long time before finally noticing something in the jade pendant hanging from the person's waist.
"Tang Qiwen?" A look of surprise crossed her eyes.
"Madam, what did you say? Where is Tang Qiwen?" Doukou looked in the direction Wan Qiqi was looking, puzzled, but couldn't see anything wrong.
Although she hadn't spent much time with Wan Qiqi, she had learned some general information from Wu Gousheng.
She made a detailed note of who was on good terms with Wan Qiqi, who she couldn't afford to offend, and who had a grudge against her.
Doukou dared not let her guard down when she heard Tang Qiwen was among the people Wu Gousheng was focusing on.
"They're right down there, probably here to spy on us!" Wan Qiqi said calmly.
She was not surprised by Tang Qiwen's appearance.
It would be strange if the Tang family did nothing.
She was just curious whether the Tang family was cooperating with Xie Xing or a third-party force!
"Let's go down and investigate, see what he's up to!"
As Wan Qiqi spoke, she walked downstairs.
Doukou hurriedly followed, "Madam, is it really okay for you to confront him like this? What if he tries something underhanded?"
"They'll definitely resort to dirty tricks, but we're not afraid!" Wan Qiqi said confidently.
Although the online store will not be back online for another two days, that doesn't stop me from confronting Tang Qiwen.
In front of so many people, she believed that Tang Qiwen couldn't do anything!
However, just as Wan Qiqi went downstairs, ready to challenge Tang Qiwen to a duel, she was interrupted.
Wuhen suddenly appeared, bowed to Wan Qiqi, and said, "Madam, something has happened at Xinglong Restaurant!"
"Something happened?" Wan Qiqi asked, somewhat puzzled.
With Zhu Chengye overseeing the restaurant, nothing is likely to happen unless government officials come, in which case Zhu Chengye might not be able to handle it.
However, the government did not take any action.
"Madam, Boss Zhu is not at the restaurant!" Wuhen explained, perhaps guessing what Wan Qiqi was thinking.
Wan Qiqi's eyes trembled.
She turned to look at the corner where Tang Qiwen had been standing and found that he had already moved away.
Recalling what Fengzhi said about Zhu Chengye and Tang Qiwen getting close that day, Wan Qiqi immediately understood.
However, she didn't intend to dwell on this matter at the moment. She said to Doukou, "Let's go back to the restaurant!"
Two figures squeezed into the crowd and gradually disappeared into the distance.
The figure that had disappeared in the corner reappeared, letting out a cold laugh, "I thought she had a new partner and would abandon the old restaurant, but it turns out she still has some dim sum!"
After saying that, he looked at the slightly overweight man beside him.
"What did you hear them talking about? How can you be so sure she's found a new partner?" Zhu Chengye was very displeased and didn't like Tang Qiwen's words.
However, he didn't know why, but upon hearing news of Tang Qiwen, he actually came!
He knew perfectly well that Wan Qiqi had promised not to cooperate with anyone else.
But when he saw Wan Qiqi getting close to the Xiao family, he began to distrust Wan Qiqi's promises again.
