"But..." Yazhi hesitated to speak.
"Alright." Mrs. Xiang interrupted her, "Yazhi, I really don’t know how your father and I ended up having such a foolish daughter."
"Mom."
Yazhi pouted, though she was in her forties, she still made such an adorable gesture.
"Just maintain a good mother-son relationship with Qingyang, are you worried that there won’t be a day when you benefit from your son’s status?" Mrs. Xiang said with heavy emphasis.
Yazhi furiously returned to her own house.
Xiang Yahu ca in happily and said, "Sis, who upset you? I’ll stand up for you."
"What trouble have you caused again?" Yazhi glared at him, suppressing her anger deep inside.
"Sis, what do you an? What trouble could I have caused?"
Yahu’s words betrayed a hint of guilt.
"Don’t I know you?" Yazhi glared at him furiously, feeling frustrated internally, she felt extrely aggrieved.
"Tell , what have you done wrong this ti?" Yazhi asked annoyed.
"No, I really haven’t done anything wrong," Xiang Yahu tried to appease her, "Sis, do you have sothing troubling you? Tell about it, maybe, as your brother, I can help you out?"
"You?" Yazhi looked at him disdainfully.
Yahu straightened his chest and said, "Sis, don’t look down on . Although... although I’m not good at business, I’m not useless. I have many friends and know all sorts of people. Just tell , maybe I can really help you."
Yazhi was silent for a while, thinking about Mrs. Xiang’s words. She knew her mother was right, but deep down, she just couldn’t accept it.
Yazhi briefly shared a little, and Yahu’s eyes lit up, he said, "Sis, that’s easy to handle, it’s just a little vixen, what’s so great about her? You said she’s in Sea City."
"Mhm." Yazhi nodded.
To please Yazhi, Yahu imdiately said, "Sis, imagine, if sothing happened to this little vixen, or if she gets... you know, slandered, do you think such a woman still deserves to be acknowledged by the Lian family?"
"Are you saying..." Yazhi drew out her tone, unsure if she heard him correctly.
Yahu confidently nodded, "Of course, this can be done without anyone noticing."
"But, the vixen’s husband, he seems quite capable," Yazhi was also tempted by Yahu’s words. If the little vixen was no longer the pristine woman she used to be, and as Yahu said, if it beca public knowledge, even if Old Sir Lian liked her, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to acknowledge her back into the Lian Family?
"What’s the issue, there are plenty of people in Sea City, can’t we just distract the man?" Yahu beca more excited as he spoke, seeing Yazhi’s reaction, he thought about the recent trouble he had caused. If Yazhi would step in, there would surely be no issue.
"Sis." Yahu’s words carried more coaxing, he eagerly wanted to handle this matter well for Yazhi, he patted his chest and assured, "Don’t worry, I’ll handle this perfectly for you."
"Really?" Yazhi was skeptical.
Yahu wished he could swear to the heavens, his sincerity was palpable, almost as if he wanted to show his heart to Yazhi, which swayed her.
"Sis, think about it, are we really going to let that little vixen take over the Lian family’s wealth?"
"Qingqing and Qingyang are your biological daughter and son, what is that little vixen compared to them?"
"Sis, we can’t just let this matter go." Xiang Yahu stirred up trouble on the sidelines, and with Xiang Yazhi already feeling resentful, she impulsively agreed to Xiang Yahu’s plan in a mont of irrationality.
After returning to the Lian Family, Xiang Yazhi was restless.
Xiang Yahu’s actions were usually unreliable. If this worked out, it would be fine, but if not, and Xiang Yahu got himself involved, then wouldn’t Lian He have to divorce her?
Divorce?
This word had appeared in Xiang Yazhi’s mind more than once before. Due to the incident with the vixen, the little feelings between her and Lian He initially were as thin as paper. If Lian He found out that she had laid hands on the little vixen...
Given Lian He’s protective nature, then she...
Xiang Yazhi shuddered, feeling so regrets. After hesitating for a long ti, she eventually got up and walked out the door.
Just as she arrived at the Xiang Family’s gate, she ran into Xiang Yahu. Xiang Yazhi was just about to ask him to abandon the plan, but Xiang Yahu said, "Sis, you’re too timid. I guarantee that this plan will be executed without anyone knowing, and it will not involve our Xiang Family at all. What are you still worried about?"
"Sis, I am doing this to avenge you." Xiang Yahu thought that if the plan succeeded, then he would bring up that incident to Xiang Yazhi. Now, how could Xiang Yahu let Xiang Yazhi back down?
So, Xiang Yahu, with his eloquent tongue, coaxed Xiang Yazhi into going back.

"Tonight, I’ll take you to a nice place." ng Siyu said mysteriously.
Tang Yue was extrely curious and couldn’t help asking, "Where are you taking ?"
"You’ll know once we get there." ng Siyu lifted his hand and gently stroked her silky, satin-like long hair, adding, "Oh, and I have a friend. He’s currently in Sea City, just the right ti for us to et."
"Then, should we prepare anything?" Tang Yue asked imdiately upon hearing this.
"No need, he’s all alone," ng Siyu said light-heartedly, rembering what his friend had previously said, and chuckled.
Tang Yue leaned in with a smile and asked, "You two must be close, right?"
"Yes." ng Siyu nodded, lowered his head, and kissed her, saying, "Taking you to et him today, he will definitely be so surprised that his eyes might pop out."
"Why?" Tang Yue looked at him, puzzled, tilting her head in confusion as she tried to grasp the aning behind ng Siyu’s words.
Juyuan Restaurant.
When Tang Yue arrived with ng Siyu, she noticed that the sliced fish in spicy broth was done well here, as were the seafood dishes.
In the hall, Tang Yue saw several tables with sliced fish in spicy broth and a variety of seafood.
Even though she hadn’t eaten yet, Tang Yue felt today would be a treat for her taste buds.
Guided by a waiter, they headed upstairs to a private room. Inside, a man was already sitting by the window. He had a resolute deanor but exuded an aura of coldness, clad in black, wrapping his robust physique.
"Li Yi, have you been waiting long?" ng Siyu’s voice was neutral but upon closer listen, it carried a hint of warmth.
To those less familiar, there was usually no emotion in ng Siyu’s eyes, unlike now, where there was a touch of happiness.
"Brother Mo...is this the little wife you married?" Li Yi stood up, his hazel eyes shimring with astonishnt. Tang Yue was indeed beautiful, but she looked delicate and sowhat familiar.
