After some thought, Lao Fang said, "Xuan'er, those who truly care about you will definitely treat you wholeheartedly. As for those who only care about you on the surface, you don't need to care about what they think of you, right?"

Xuan'er didn't understand why Lao Fang said this, and just nodded ignorantly.

"Since you know this truth, then... you should also know that not all relatives are truly kind to you, right?"

Tilting his head, Xuan'er asked curiously, "Grandpa Fang, what on earth do you want to say?"

"I...I just want you not to trust the master's feelings for you. In the Xiao family, everything is about interests. I don't know if you can understand what I mean."

Xuan'er nodded and said, "I know Grandpa Fang is worried about me, but I know my limits, so you don't have to worry."

"But..." Lao Fang said halfway and didn't know how to persuade the child. He could only sigh heavily and shake his head helplessly.

While Xuan'er was hiding away all day, Zhang Kaifeng was not idle either. He took the initiative to contact Lilith and asked her out.

As soon as Lilith received Zhang Kaifeng's call, she knew what this man was up to. But the situation now was different. It was Zhang Kaifeng who needed her help, and the difference in status between the two of them was immediately apparent.

It seems that when Lilith saw Zhang Kaifeng, she did not see any begging look on his face. He still looked arrogant, and she was just a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy at his feet.

This feeling made Lilith very unhappy. She crossed her legs, raised her eyebrows and asked, "I'm very busy. If you have anything to say, just tell me!"

Zhang Kaifeng looked at Lilith coldly and said, "You haven't become the master of the Xiao family yet, so you have no right to act like a gentleman in front of me! I asked you to come here today just to help me get someone to go to the Xiao family."

Lilith laughed twice, as if she had heard a very funny joke, and then said, "Why do you think I should cooperate with you?"

"Because Xuan'er is at the Xiao family now!"

"But I didn't get that person in!" Lilith looked at Zhang Kaifeng smugly and said triumphantly, "You should go find Xiao Jincheng and ask him to help you get that person in!"

Looking at Lilith's arrogant face, Zhang Kaifeng narrowed his eyes, murderous intent already visible.

"Lilith, you are seeking death!"

Lilith looked at Zhang Kaifeng with her nose and said nonchalantly: "Don't try to scare me again! It won't be long before I will be the master of the Xiao family. When that time comes, whether you want to cooperate with me depends on whether I am in the mood!"

This woman is really stupid. She is still complacent and thinks she got an advantage.

Slowly leaning back in his chair, Zhang Kaifeng looked at Lilith with a pitiful look in his eyes and said, "Since you want to live in a hypocritical lie, it's up to you. But you must get someone in for me, and this person must be able to help you."

Lilith wished Xuan'er would die right now and would never agree to Zhang Kaifeng's request. She had only agreed to the appointment today to show off in front of Zhang Kaifeng.

However, when she heard Zhang Kaifeng's firm words, she was still moved and asked, "What can that person do to help me?"

"He's a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine. He can help Xiao Jincheng regulate his body and prolong his life. You recommended him. If Xiao Jincheng is happy, he might give you more power."

Lilith sneered and said, "The entire Xiao family will soon be mine. Why should I care about your little favors?"

"You idiot, don't you think Xiao Jincheng is really going to hand over everything in the Xiao family to you?" Zhang Kaifeng said with a mocking look on his face, "After all, you are from an outsider family. Who knows if you will take everything in the Xiao family and run off with another man in the future? So, Xiao Jincheng still has a trick up his sleeve for you!"

Lilith had never considered this possibility, but Xiao Jincheng was so cunning that he wouldn't trust anyone, including her. It was quite possible that he would prepare a separate inheritance for his descendants.

Seeing that Lilith was persuaded by his words, Zhang Kaifeng folded his hands on the table and said with a hint of temptation in his tone, "Xiao Jincheng has a trick up his sleeve. Why can't you find someone to back you up as well? Alone, are you sure you can outsmart that old fox?"

Lilith raised her eyes, put away her smile, and asked, "Who is my backer? You? Humph, you wish I would die sooner!"

"I didn't say that," Zhang Kaifeng said with a wicked smile, "The relationship between you and me is simply mutually beneficial, each taking what they need. If you help me arrange the terms, I can help you secretly transfer everything in the Xiao family to your name. As far as I know, you've already done so, but I've seen what you transferred, and it's basically garbage."

"What did you say!?"

Lilith was furious. On the one hand, it was because her secret had been discovered so thoroughly. On the other hand, it was because her efforts had been trampled underfoot and crushed mercilessly by Xiao Jincheng.

Seeing Lilith's fury, Zhang Kaifeng smiled and said, "Look, if I can see it, do you think Xiao Jincheng can't? I advise you not to use your self-righteous cleverness. You can't fool Xiao Jincheng at all. Why not let me help you? Not only can I keep it a secret, but I can also get you a generous reward!"

Rolling her eyes, Lilith asked, "What kind of person do you want me to arrange for you?"

"A young Oriental man, in his early twenties, with a sunny smile and no scheming."

With a cold snort, Lilith asked, "Are you sure such a person can survive in the Xiao family? Don't think that the doctors of the Xiao family will be worry-free. In fact, it's quite the opposite. Because Grandpa wants to cure his illness so badly, there are many famous doctors in the Xiao family, and the competition among them is very fierce, even tragic. Think about it carefully, don't let me help you get someone in, and then regret it!"

"Don't worry about that. I have a way."

As he spoke, Zhang Kaifeng took out a photo. Wasn’t the man in the photo Da Zhong?

Lilith picked up the photo and took a look at it before asking, "I'll help you get someone in, but what can you do to make me trust you?"

As if he had expected Lilith to ask this question, Zhang Kaifeng took out a note and handed it to Lilith.

Written on the note was the Xiao family's bank account number and password in Switzerland. As long as Lilith wanted, she could withdraw all the money at any time.

Lilith didn't expect that Zhang Kaifeng could even get this thing. In addition to being shocked, she also doubted whether the password was true or false.

Zhang Kaifeng saw Lilith's doubts and said, "If you don't believe me, you can definitely give it a try first. Don't worry, I'm different from you. If I say it, I will definitely do it!"
