After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 643 - 641: Make Them Bite Off More Than They Can Chew!
Chapter 643: Chapter 641: Make Them Bite Off More Than They Can Chew!
Xia Wenmo embraced Lu Zhaozhao with a heart full of pain, and the Xia Family members beside them followed suit, hugging her as well.
Lu Zhaozhao, seeing the room’s atmosphere turn a bit strange because of her, felt slightly embarrassed and blushed.
"I was just feeling a little sentimental, I didn’t think too much about it, you all don’t need to worry."
She hadn’t actually given it much thought either, but once she spoke, the Xia Family’s imaginations ran wild.
She felt somewhat embarrassed.
The people of the Xia Family did indeed dote on her too much.
Wen Qingyu seemed to notice Lu Zhaozhao’s discomfort and promptly changed the subject, "Zhaozhao, now that you and Sinian are married, you’ve brought a lot of his trusted people with you. There’s no problem at the Song Group, is there? I’m worried that some people might take advantage of your wedding to cause trouble."
After all, the news of their approaching wedding had been announced long ago, and Wen Qingyu was concerned that someone might use this period to meddle in the Song Group’s internal affairs.
Song Sinian, the person in power, wasn’t at the company, Mr. Song wasn’t there either, and his capable right-hand man, Zhao Xi, was also absent.
Knowing what they did about Xiao Mo and his mother, it was possible they might use this time to stir up trouble.
With Song Sinian being overseas and unable to protect her directly, if anything really happened, it would be Lu Zhaozhao and Song Sinian who would be put in a difficult position.
Lu Zhaozhao was slightly stunned; she hadn’t considered this aspect. She had thought that Xiao Jinglan no longer held any real power at the Song Mansion.
The shareholders who supported Xiao Mo had been sidelined, and she assumed they wouldn’t be able to make any significant moves for the time being. But Wen Qingyu’s words had unexpectedly raised Lu Zhaozhao’s own concerns.
Her brows furrowed, and she almost instinctively wanted to reach out to Song Sinian to clarify the situation.
Just as she was about to grab her cellphone, Xia Wenmo gently held her back, "My silly Zhaozhao, Song Sinian is the kind of person who prepares ahead. If our mom can think of this issue, could he really not have considered it?"
Lu Zhaozhao pursed her lips, "But what if he hasn’t thought of it?"
Xia Wenjue and Xia Wenqing couldn’t help but chuckle at this.
"If he can’t even consider such a small matter, then we really can’t afford to marry you off to him."
Xia Wenjue gave Lu Zhaozhao a reassuring look before continuing, "If he hadn’t thought of these issues, why would he bring all those who appear to be his confidants with him?"
He hadn’t wanted to say anything, but seeing Lu Zhaozhao’s worried look, he felt compelled to give her a subtle hint.
Song Sinian had said not to tell Lu Zhaozhao, but he didn’t say she couldn’t guess on her own.
Besides, with his sister being so intelligent, how could she not figure it out?
This wasn’t really a betrayal of trust, was it?
Xia Wenqing saw Xia Wenjue cleverly bending the rules and couldn’t resist joining in, winking at Lu Zhaozhao, "Little sister, think it over, take your time to ponder it."
Xia Wenyan listened to Xia Wenjue and Xia Wenqing’s cryptic conversation, looking confusedly at the two and then at Lu Zhaozhao.
Whether Lu Zhaozhao understood what the two were saying, he certainly didn’t.
But this didn’t stop him from chipping in, "Don’t worry, little sis, just because Sinian’s confidants aren’t there doesn’t mean our family’s and Brother Pei’s confidants aren’t present. Any slight movement on their part, we guarantee they won’t get away with it!"
Xia Wenyan’s words genuinely took Xia Wenjue and Xia Wenqing by surprise.
He was the only one among the four brothers who was not aware of the true situation.
Yet the words he spoke were almost exactly in line with their plans.
"As long as it wasn’t just the three of them and Song Sinian in a room, they had even thought that Song Sinian had informed him alone."
Upon hearing Xia Wenyan’s words, Lu Zhaozhao finally felt completely at ease.
With big shots from the Rimu Family and the Xia Family backing the Song Group, not to mention Song Sinian still holding the position of president.
Even if he didn’t hold the position now, his brothers could still get him there.
Meanwhile, in the Beijing Circle, Xiao Family.
As soon as Xiao Jinglan entered the door, she picked up a cup and smashed it on the ground.
"Crash!"
"Smash!"
After a series of crashing and smashing sounds,
footsteps slowly came from upstairs.
Xiao Jinglan was startled, she looked up, and saw that it was Song Keren who was coming downstairs. She immediately frowned and asked, "Why have you come back?"
She had just assumed it was Hao Jiayi at home.
After all, aside from Xiao Mo and herself, the only other person who frequently came and went was Hao Jiayi. She hadn’t expected Song Keren to return at this time.
She remembered that not long ago, Song Keren suddenly said Justin was going abroad, and so she had to leave with him.
Naturally, Xiao Jinglan hadn’t thought much of it, as her daughter had married Justin; moving abroad with him was a normal thing.
Lately, all her thoughts had been on Xiao Mo; she didn’t care that Song Keren had been gone for so long without calling her.
Nor had she thought to call Song Keren.
Seeing that Song Keren didn’t say anything, Xiao Jinglan asked again, "Since you’re back home, why didn’t you call me in advance?"
Song Keren looked at Xiao Jinglan, snorted disdainfully through her nose, and let out a laugh, "I’ve been away from home for so long, and haven’t you also not made a single call to me?"
She thought of the humiliation she had suffered recently abroad, and the rage in her heart surged ferociously.
Before her marriage, although she wasn’t a Song Family member, she enjoyed treatment almost the same as a Song Family Miss because Xiao Jinglan had married Song Gu.
But ever since Xiao Jinglan called her back to the country, her treatment had changed drastically. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
First, she was thrown out by Old Master Song in front of everyone, and then she was taken abroad by her new husband, living like a slave.
If not for the person she had made a deal with, she would probably still be in the basement now, eating spoiled food and drinking dirty water.
Thinking of all this, and that it was all because Xiao Jinglan favored Xiao Mo, Song Keren harbored deep resentment toward Xiao Jinglan.
Listening to the veiled sarcasm in Song Keren’s tone, Xiao Jinglan frowned noticeably with displeasure, "You’re already married, so could you expect to call me every day to complain as if you were still unmarried? You should grow up and learn how to charm your own husband."
"Charm my own husband?" Song Keren sneered self-mockingly, "Do you know how many wives Justin has?"
Song Keren’s words caught Xiao Jinglan off guard.
She opened her mouth for a long while before she found her voice, "How many wives does Justin have? Didn’t he only marry you?"
Xiao Jinglan completely failed to understand why she would ask such a question.
She thought for a moment, as if she understood something, "Are you saying that Justin has been finding mistresses and ’Little Fours’ behind your back?"
