When Luo Huai saw the steward of the Xing family's old residence, he was stunned and nodded, calling him "Grandpa Steward".

Grandma Kuang held a kitchen knife, preventing the Xing family from taking the person away.

Even though the old butler was very polite and repeatedly assured that he wouldn't do anything to Luo Huai, and that he would safely return her before 10 p.m., it was all in vain.

Luo Huai's words were also ineffective.

Finally, it was a call from Xing Yanzhao's friend that made Grandma Kuang give way.

The man said on the phone, "Could you please prepare an electric wheelchair, Manager Xing? Brother Zhao instructed that my sister-in-law has a foot injury that hasn't healed and she can't walk."

Luo Huai heard it faintly and felt a strange unease in his heart.

On the way to the Xing family's old residence, the old butler subtly inquired about Xing Yanzhao's past work. Luo Huai genuinely didn't know and told the truth.

Then he asked about Xing Yanzhao's friends.

In background checks, interpersonal relationships are the most difficult part to investigate, just like how people don't specifically fill in information about their friends in their personal files.

External investigations can only find the friends with whom you have the most frequent and close interactions.

However, they still missed something: they didn't find out that Kuangye was the second boss of Chaoye Technology.

Once a person has status and power, their background information can be hidden.

The old butler agreed with what Master Xing said; Young Master Yanzhao was no ordinary man.

“I don’t know, Grandpa Butler,” Luo Huai replied with a smile.

Actually, she knew a little bit.

Kuang Ye works at a technology company, and everyone respectfully calls him Boss Kuang.

Brother Shen runs the restaurant that's the hardest to book in Ningcheng.

That day, in the parking lot, she spotted a familiar license plate.

Pei Yuanzhou once pointed to the license plate and told her that it was the private car of Ningcheng's second-in-command.

All major bidding projects in Ningcheng have to go through that person.

And Brother Shen casually holds a black gold card for the "Tibetan Board of Directors".

As it turns out, things are far more complicated than they appear.

What Zhao Ge didn't want to say, or was unwilling to say, couldn't be said by her.

Luo Huai has a cute appearance and a natural deceptive quality.

The old butler had no suspicions and did not inquire further.

After getting off the bus, Luo Huai still asked, "Grandpa Butler, what did Grandpa and Grandma want with me?"

"Miss Luo Huai has suffered in the Pei family all these years," the old butler said with a smile. "Once she arrives at the Xing family, the old master and old lady will not let Miss Luo Huai suffer any injustice."

Luo Huai didn't quite understand.

Until I saw everyone sitting in the main hall.

The old lady smiled and waved to her, "Luo Huai, come to Grandma."

The old housekeeper pushed the wheelchair over.

The old lady then became concerned about her feet.

His attitude was completely different from when he met Pei Youyou.

Pei Youyou sat there, consumed by jealousy.

She discovered that ever since she married into the Xing family, everyone seemed to be under a curse from Luo Huai, except for Zheng Yu, who was naturally gentle and polite.

On the contrary, Xing Yuru was sometimes on her side and sometimes on Luo Huai's side.

Wall grass.

And the servants of the Xing family, how dare they turn around and bite her?

A dog that can't be tamed.

Grandpa and Grandma actually greeted Luo Huai with smiles?

He must have been bewitched by her innocent appearance.

Xing Zhengyu greeted her politely, "Sister-in-law."

Luo Huai first called out to his grandparents, then his parents, and then sat down next to the old lady, while the wheelchair was pushed away by the housekeeper.

"I called you here today mainly to deal with a family matter," the old man began, his face grave.

Everyone sat upright.

The old lady looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and said, "Originally, it should have been you, as the mother-in-law, who handled this, but since you can't handle it, we have to take over."

These words were like a slap in the face to Xing's mother.

There are three things about Xing's mother that are most praiseworthy.

First, she was a virtuous wife to Xing's father, and the Xing family's affairs were always handled with decorum.

Secondly, she gave birth to a son and a daughter for the Xing family, making a perfect family.

Third, she can manage her husband and raise her children well. While other people's husbands have mistresses and illegitimate children everywhere, she never has such troubles.

The son is outstanding, and the daughter is gentle and well-mannered.

Today, the old lady said she couldn't handle family matters well.

Xing's mother humbly inquired, "I don't know which matter Mom and Dad are referring to?"

Mr. Xing rarely paid attention to family matters because his wife would handle them properly and wouldn't bother him with such things.

Xing Zhengyu seemed to know.

His gaze swept over Pei Youyou and Luo Huai, and he thought to himself, "Oh no."

The maid who had accepted the card and was subsequently fired reappeared.

really.

Pei Youyou's pupils widened instantly, and the fingers gripping Xing Zhengyu's arm suddenly tightened.

When Xing's mother and Luo Huai saw the servant, they understood.

In an instant, Luo Huai felt the stern gaze from her mother-in-law.

“Don’t look at her.” The old lady’s intimidation was even stronger. “Since you can’t be fair and can’t find out the truth, don’t blame anyone for bringing this to us. Besides, it’s not Luo Huai. She only saw us once at the wedding.”

"You're also a daughter-in-law of the Xing family, you should understand how much influence the Xing family's words and actions have. Your sister-in-law deliberately bullied your sister-in-law, had someone deliberately damage Luo Huai's computer, and even made the servants take the blame?"

"Zhengyu, you actually helped your wife cover it up and paid her to keep quiet." The old lady narrowed her eyes. "How dare you, Zhengyu! Youyou, kneel down."

Xing Zhengyu stood up and was about to kneel down to admit his mistake.

It's always good to first express your remorse.

Pei Youyou had never knelt before, and she stood up in protest: "Why should I kneel?" Pointing at the maid, she said, "Do you believe everything others say? This has nothing to do with me; she's the one slandering me."

"Besides, we even compensated Luo Huai with 100,000 computers!" She then looked at Luo Huai, "What right do you have to complain?"

Arrogant and domineering.

The stubbornness will not change.

In the eyes of the Xing family, Pei Youyou's current appearance resembled that of a shrew with bared teeth and claws.

The anger in Xing's mother's eyes almost burst out.

What a clueless idiot!

He actually started shouting loudly in front of the two elders.

Xing Zhengyu felt like hitting someone. If it weren't for the Pei family's power, he would never have married Pei Youyou in his life.

Instead of helping him, they made him the target of public criticism.

Mr. Xing looked angrily at Mrs. Xing.

Xing's mother panicked: "I..."

She wanted to explain, but didn't know how.

If her parents hadn't interfered with the investigation, she would naturally have believed Pei Youyou. But now that they had, she couldn't help but wonder if she had truly been deceived.

But Pei Youyou is a young lady of the Pei family, who was pampered and spoiled growing up. Why would she need to bully Luo Huai, who has nothing?

Moreover, Youyou is truly a sweet-talking and well-behaved good wife.

"Dad, Mom, if Youyou really did it, Youyou should apologize to Luo Huai. The computer has already been replaced, and if that's not enough, we can..."

"Is it about the computer?" The old lady was completely enraged. "It's about the Xing family's reputation! The eldest son can't control the family, and his wife can't control the younger generation. If word gets out that they're bullying their own family, no business partners will want to work with them anymore. They're afraid that one day our family will be embroiled in negative news!"

“Pei Youyou, the Xing family is not the Pei family. Tune in with your spoiled princess attitude. Nobody will tolerate you. If you dare to lay a hand on your own family again, all the bad things you’ve done will come to light, and the Pei family will suffer as well. Just you try.” The old lady threatened her, “Come here and apologize to Luo Huai.”

Pei Youyou was frightened.

She had never been treated so harshly before.

Even her brother didn't dare to be so fierce to her.

Tears streamed down my face.

Ask her to apologize to Luo Huai? Impossible!

Pei Youyou turned and ran away.

She used this trick in the Pei family, fooling Pei Yuanzhou time and time again.

The old man wasn't going to tolerate it. He said, "Zhengyu, if Pei Youyou doesn't apologize to Luo Huai before dinner tomorrow, you'll change your surname to Lin, and she'll be a daughter-in-law of the Lin family. Whatever shameful things she does in the future, it has nothing to do with our Xing family."

"The marriage alliance between the Xing and Pei families is between Luo Huai and Yan Zhao."
