CHAPTER 804: CHAPTER 804: THE WHITE FLOWER SNAKE WHO COMMANDS A HUNDRED RESPONSES (PART 7)

Xiao Shuzhu shivered at the thought of it.

Xiao Jianming could treat his own son like that, which means, what she had overheard before about the conversation between her brother and father, regarding Xiao Jianming causing the death of his own wife, might be true.

In response, Xiao Shulan said, "There’s nothing to be surprised about. If at that time, only one could be saved, Dad would definitely choose to save Grandma."

"Don’t you feel heartbroken?" Xiao Shuzhu looked at the second sister, "If it were you, could you accept it? You’re someone’s wife too."

"Are you talking about my husband? When I married him, I never expected him to extend a hand to save me. Just look at his cowardly demeanor, when something happens, he not only abandons me but even leaves his own mother." Xiao Shulan said, "As a woman, you have to rely on yourself. Relying on a man is completely unreliable. If she doesn’t have this sense of awareness, then she deserves to fall now. Does she really think currying favor with my brother will get her any benefits?"

Xiao Shuju nodded in agreement, "Exactly. If she only covets the Xiao Family’s money, she should wake up from that dream by now. The Xiao Family would never allow such a dream."

Xiao Shuzhu naturally didn’t agree with them, turned her face away, and brooded silently, saying, "It seems like she never even thought about coveting our family’s money."

"Whether she has or hasn’t, we’ll know in a while." Xiao Shulan said, as if she had some information.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Don’t you know? She openly said to our dad that she wants the child to take the surname Gu." Xiao Shulan couldn’t help but find it funny, "Is there any woman who speaks to her father-in-law like that? If it’s her ignorant grandparents saying this, that would be called foolishness. But not her, she’s smart, which shows how ambitious she is, thinking the Xiao Family’s assets are easily obtained. If I were Dad, I wouldn’t have tolerated it long ago, such arrogance needs a lesson."

"But no matter what, she is Yebai’s wife." Xiao Shuzhu emphasized, "Isn’t it unethical for Dad to separate the two of them?"

Xiao Shuju clearly couldn’t listen anymore and interjected, "Do you claim to be Dad’s real daughter? Why do I see you speaking for her every day? How much did she pay you to speak for her, being an undercover?"

Xiao Shuzhu couldn’t defend herself and turned away in anger.

At this moment, the housekeeper came over and said to the three of them, "Second Miss, there’s a call for you."

Xiao Shulan stood up, left the tea room, and went to the bedroom to pick up the phone.

Xiao Jianming’s voice came from the other side.

"Dad."

"Your eldest sister is still missing. I’m only one person, my body is limited, and I can’t handle everything. Here’s the deal, you will represent me and your eldest sister to do something."

"Just say the word, Dad. I will give it my all." Xiao Shulan replied with a serious expression.

"Good, I’ll have Uncle Tang drive to pick you up."

With that, he hung up the phone.

Since Uncle Tang had already driven there while Xiao Jianming was making the call, waiting for them. Xiao Shulan prepared herself, didn’t explain to the two sisters, and directly left the house, getting into Uncle Tang’s car.

On the way, when she asked where they were going, Uncle Tang told her what she needed to do, saying, "The person is a friend of the late Madam, Second Miss should be very familiar with and knows them. In the past, Madam left quite a bit of assets for them to manage. Out of respect for Madam’s wishes, the Chairman never intervened. Now, there are some issues, and we need to ask that person for clarification."

"The person you are talking about is my mother’s estate agent?" Xiao Shulan was a bit surprised and blinked.
