Chapter 66 Big Face
Renguang Xi thought of those sour words that hurt Mira, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Don't think he doesn't know the purpose of saying these things to Mira. It's obvious that he wants to make Mira and Lucy fall out.
After all, Mira always stood by Lucy when she was in the most difficult time. As long as Lucy was willing, she would never forget Mira's friendship.
Now Lucy not only stood up on her own, but because of Lucy's biological father, Prince Arthur made it clear that he wanted to train Lucy and send her to a special talent training center.
Everyone in the Nerazzurri Empire knew what kind of place that was and how high one could stand after walking out of it.
They could already foresee how tall Lucy would be in the future.
Therefore, those people were afraid that their lineage would pull Lucy over, so they used the fact that Lucy had hidden her cultivation to provoke Mira, hoping to use Mira to make the relationship between Lucy and their lineage awkward.
As for Lucy, after she revealed her hidden secrets during her absence from the Xi family, many members of the family were shocked and at the same time deliberately provoked her, thinking that she was scheming.
But this is indeed the fact, and Ren Guang Xi himself does have this worry in his heart.
After all, because his mother doted on him, he and his father were often not at home, and his sister was really a novice. If Lucy wanted to sell Mira, she would definitely not only be deceived, but also happily help Lucy count the money.
However, when he saw the two little girls together, still talking and laughing like before, his worries were much lessened.
In the homes of the rich and powerful families, anyone with some ability is scheming. A fool without protection and a little scheming will die without knowing how he died.
Those who say that Lucy is scheming, which one of them is not scheming?
If Lucy hadn't been so scheming, she would have been crushed into the mud and couldn't even get up.
Would the tribe get close to her and say good things about her just because she is incompetent and stupid?
No, the recent cyberbullying of Lucy has proven that even if those people don't step forward to step in and take action, they will just stand by and watch.
Of course, their aunt Zhao Fanni made a great contribution to the cyberbullying, and their cousin Erica, who had just returned to the family, seemed to have played a role in it.
If it is true that Lucy's father wanted Lucy to be the daughter of her uncle and swapped the identities of the two children, then her aunt and cousin Erica would have no reason to hate Lucy.
But if the facts are not like that, and it is exposed on the Internet that the child swap was probably done by the uncle and aunt in the lobby themselves, then it is disgusting for them to treat Lucy like this.
What's even more disgusting is that after all this trouble, they still have the nerve to let Lucy stay in their house.
If Lucy knew this when she was very young, there was nothing she could do except hide herself, after all, her biological parents were no longer around.
Ren Guang decided that as long as Lucy didn't use her mind on his sister, he would definitely stand on Lucy's side just because of the ugly faces of his uncle and his wife.
In fact, after his father became the new head of the Xi family, his family and Erica's family have been standing on opposite sides. It would definitely be good for his father to be able to pull Lucy to his side.
Ren Guang thought about the quarrel in the conference room before he came out, and then looked at his eleventh cousin who was three years younger than him but whose cultivation was one level higher than his, and a glimmer of excitement flashed in his eyes.
Lucy didn't know what her seventh cousin was thinking. When she heard him say that the new head of the family and the elders were waiting for her in the meeting room, she released her mental power.
When Mai Dongzi was at Xi's house, he was not like when he was on Prince Arthur's command ship. He did not dare to release his mental power at all.
Therefore, before she walked into the family meeting room, she used her mental power to "watch" a wonderful debate.
There was a lot of noise in the meeting room. The elders who supported the new head of the family agreed to include Atom Xi in the family tree and let Lucy remember Atom's name again.
The opposing faction insisted on disagreeing and insisted on maintaining the original relationship. After all, the Nigri couple raised Lucy so much, how could Lucy just say she didn't recognize her parents?
The excuse was that Atom was an illegitimate child and had not made any great contribution to the family, and admitting him would bring shame to the family's reputation.
Mai Dongzi sneered. Nigri Xi really dared to think that she was still the soft persimmon as before, allowing him and his wife to bully her.
When they reached the door of the conference room, Mira let go of Lucy and whispered, "I'll wait for you at home."
Mai Dongzi patted her on the shoulder, and the little girl walked away happily.
Ren Guang went in with Lucy. Before going in, he whispered to Lucy: "With your current cultivation level, as long as your request is reasonable, the head of the family can help you."
Renguang emphasized the word "reasonable".
Mai Dongzi looked at him and understood what her seventh cousin meant, so she smiled at him.
Although the seventh cousin's words at this time seemed to be restraining her, she did not object.
Judging from the noisy situation in the conference room, it was clear that the new head of the family, Chairman Yuandong, lacked prestige in the family.
Renguang is his son, so it is only natural for him to help his father win over a woman who has Arthur's house as a backer.
He didn't do this in front of Mira, and used Mira's feelings for her to pressure her, which was already thoughtful enough.
As for whether Mai Dongzi would accept the offer or not, it was needless to say because there were two forces inside, one was the new head of the family, and the other was the previous head of the family.
In fact, there was no need for Mai Dongzi to ask the family to accept her adoptive father.
Because when she walked into the meeting room, the new family head and several elders present and on the other side of the video looked at her with complicated expressions on their faces, and they all stopped arguing.
Those elders who insisted on not letting Atom Xi be included in the family tree believed that if the Xi family acknowledged Atom's identity, it would only bring shame to the family. They were laughed at by the other nine great families, and there was a look of helplessness and shame on their faces.
When they see that Lucy, who is only eighteen years old, is already a sixth-level warrior, and she is also a fifth-level psychic, all their reasons for opposing such a monstrous genius will no longer be reasons.
Even if Atom was an illegitimate child, so what? Just because he was able to give birth to such a daughter for Xi, other families would only be jealous and hate the Xi family. How could they possibly laugh at them?
It would be a real joke if they let this young genius alienate his family for this reason.
After all, something unpleasant had happened before, and if it happened again, they believed that she would just turn around and leave. She was not the weak and helpless girl in their impression.
