"This is just too arrogant!"

"Could it be that they want to cooperate with Haohan Company and disregard the Zhao Family?"

"This is simply bringing disaster to the Xu Family!"

"..."

People were talking animatedly.

Grandma's expression was also very grim.

Xu Yunxiao frowned and said, "That, that's because he has ulterior motives."

"Ulterior motives?"

Xu Changjian scoffed, "Who do you think you are? Would Young Master Zhao take an interest in a woman married to a loser? Don't flatter yourself!"

"Exactly, always acting as if everyone is competing for you." Xu Yaxin also sneered.

Before Xu Yunxiao could retort, Xu Changjian continued, "At the beginning, Young Master Zhao, in order to show friendship to our Xu Family, even carried her luggage all the way. But she, with her small-mindedness, thought of Young Master Zhao as that kind of person!"

"Yunxiao, this is where you're wrong. How could you act like this?"

"So selfish, have you thought about the consequences of such actions?"

"..."

Others also began criticizing her vociferously.

Xu Yunxiao couldn't get a word in edge-wise and was so anxious she didn't know what to do.

"Not only that."

A cold smile once again curled up on the corner of Xu Changjian's mouth, "Qin Feng also provoked Mr. Du from the Du Family."

"What? The Du Family is also a second-tier family. How did you manage to offend Mr. Du?"

Everyone frowned.

"As far as I know, Mr. Du took a liking to Su Ruolan. Qin Feng kept harassing Su Ruolan and even on the coach, he wouldn't give his seat up to Mr. Du and sat next to Su Ruolan, making Mr. Du resent him deeply!"

Xu Changjian said.

Hearing this, people became indignant and started to curse Qin Feng.

"Qin Feng, you say you're useless, and now you've even offended Mr. Du for our Xu Family!"

"Who do you think you are? Trying to hit on Su Ruolan, you can't even compare yourself, you're really bringing shame on our Xu Family!"

"..."

The hall descended into chaos, filled with voices of accusation.

Grandma brewed herself another cup of tea, then raised her hand to quiet everyone down and said to Xu Yunxiao, "Yunxiao, now not only have you become arrogant, but that loser in your family has also followed suit, completely unaware of his place. This is not good at all!"

"Grandma…"

Xu Yunxiao wanted to explain anxiously but seeing the grim look on Grandma's face, she knew that all her explanations were futile.

At this moment.

Qin Feng let out a cold laugh and said to Xu Changjian, "You only remember these things, but have you forgotten who drove away the wolves to save you from their jaws, who led away the snake, and who rescued you from the cave?"

"You, don't take credit for others' deeds! The wolves and the venomous snakes, it was all Lin Xue'er's doing, what are you pretending for! And about the cave…"

Xu Changjian, recalling the incident in the cave, felt it as a humiliation and said, "You know those bandits, we even suspect you're in cahoots with them, deliberately making us suffer!"

Seeing this, Qin Feng didn't bother to explain anymore and sat down saying, "If they want to blame someone, they'll always find an excuse!"

"Look! He can't outtalk me, he admits it!" Xu Changjian triumphantly yelled out.

Grandma, observing this, a subtle look of satisfaction flashed in her eyes before turning back to Xu Yunxiao.

"In that case, Shuimu Company doesn't need you to manage it alone. I'll let Changjian help you; it's for your own good. It will not only help you to share the burden but also help you grow properly, and not get arrogant over a little success."

"Grandma!"

Xu Yunxiao became anxious.

She knew that grandma doted on Xu Changjian. If Xu Changjian managed the company for too long, it would eventually be devoured by him slowly. Clearly, it's their strategy of gradual appropriation, nibbling away bit by bit!

"I, I think that Haohan Company, would not agree!"

Xu Yunxiao said.

There was no other way.

She could now only push back using Haohan Company.

"You don't have to worry about this." Grandma seemed to have anticipated this and said, "Later on, you and Changjian should go to Haohan Company together, talk to Mr. Shen, and resolve the conflict between Changjian and Mr. Shen. Besides, Shuimu Company is still nominally under your management, and Changjian will only take care of internal affairs. That way, there would be no problem."

Xu Yunxiao was at a loss for words.

Let Xu Changjian take charge of the internal management of the company? That would make it even easier for him to seize power!

"Grandma, you know the saying that there can't be two tigers on one mountain, I disagree!"

Xu Yunxiao said.

"How dare you!"

Xu Changjian slammed his hand on the table at this moment and shouted, "Are you not listening to grandma anymore? Have you really become so arrogant and disrespectful to your elders?"

Xu Yunxiao's eyes were red and swollen with anxiety, unsure of what to say.

Xu Yaxin hooked the corner of her mouth into a cold smile at this moment and said, "If there can't be two tigers on one mountain, then let Brother Changjian take charge. In any case, what you've done is too ugly; letting you control Shuimu Company, the Xu family would not be at ease."

"What have I done?" Xu Yunxiao said, disheartened.

"What have you done? Do I have to point it out in front of everyone?" Xu Yaxin sneered, "You embezzled!!"

"Embezzlement?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was somewhat astonished.

Actually, they were all managing family businesses, and more or less, they would embezzle a bit, but these were unspoken rules that no one would reveal openly.

They didn't understand why Xu Yaxin would attack Xu Yunxiao with this accusation.

"I'm not embezzling, you're slandering!"

Xu Yunxiao retorted at this moment.

She was the only one in the Xu family who did not embezzle company funds, devoting her heart entirely to the company, never embezzled a penny, and even put her own money in!

Otherwise, she would not be living in a dilapidated old two-bedroom apartment, which did not match her status as General Manager at all.

"Slandering?"

Xu Yaxin's mouth curved into a smile as she spoke, "Then let me ask you, where did Qin Feng's money come from? I saw him with my own eyes yesterday, he gave his classmate a wedding gift of 9,999,999 yuan and 999, which is to say, just one yuan less than ten million!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone gasped! Thank you for reading. This was brought to you by *.

Almost ten million in gift money, this was too terrifying, too unimaginable!

You must know.

The Xu family had many small companies, and the total assets were just over ten million. Qin Feng gave a classmate a gift of so much money?

"Everyone knows he comes from a rural background, a complete pauper, how could he possibly have so much money? Also, Yunxiao, you were borrowing money everywhere recently, you couldn't get a sum as large as ten million, right? How come the money appeared once you partnered with Haohan Company?"

"This money hasn't even been used for proper things; instead, it went to gift money for a wedding of a classmate who delivers food. Isn't that a bit too extravagant?"

Xu Yaxin said, her mouth curving into a sinister smile.

The people were now also getting red in the face with anger, standing up and pointing at Xu Yunxiao, starting to curse, "Who would have thought! You've actually embezzled so much, ten million! Do you intend to hollow out the Xu family?"

"How can you, how can you do this, is this how you repay everyone, repay grandma?"

"How could you do such a thing when we all trusted you so much!"

"The company can no longer be handed over to you to manage!"

"..."
