After being forced into marriage, the metaphysical master became the darling of the richest family.

Chapter 535

But Madam Xia stubbornly refused to get up, her eyes full of pleading as she looked at An Jiuxi, "Xixi, I know Yuwei really did something wrong this time. Could you please spare her life for the sake of what we talked about at the hotel?"

An Jiuxi paused in supporting Madam Xia, frowned, and glanced in An Yuwei's direction.

A sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings) welled up in my heart.

“Mrs. Xia, strictly speaking, this matter did not harm me, but rather the Jin family. If you want to forgive me, you should ask the Jin family, not me.”

Although An Jiuxi was angry, this matter ultimately involved Old Master Jin.

Even if a decision really needs to be made, it shouldn't be her who makes it.

Madam Xia was taken aback, then turned to look at Jin Yize.

Before she could speak again, she felt a tugging behind her and was pulled up from the ground by a strong force!

An Yuwei shouted angrily, her voice hoarse, "I don't need your hypocritical pleas here. Since you already know the truth, stop pretending!"

These words echoed in the living room.

The Xia couple's gaze towards An Yuwei gradually turned to shock!

"How could you say that!" Mr. Xia was so angry that he almost suffered a stroke!

Fortunately, Wen Chuyun was still there and quickly stuffed a blood pressure medication into Xia's father's mouth, which prevented him from fainting!

"Otherwise, how can I explain it? You were clearly going to see An Jiuxi, but you lied to me and said you wanted to have some alone time together. Isn't it because you found out the truth that you started to abandon me?"

An Yuwei looked at the two of them and found it all laughable.

An Jiuxi noticed her mood and suddenly spoke up, "They did come to me because they knew the truth back then, but they offered me 30% of the Xia family's shares in exchange for me not pursuing your past responsibilities."

What is the significance of a 30% stake? It means that the Xia family's company has been almost completely acquired by the Jin family.

All future decisions will be known to An Jiuxi and the Jin family, which is tantamount to being controlled by others.

An Yuwei refused to believe it. "Don't lie to me! I'm just an adopted daughter! They couldn't possibly..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was completely stunned by the contract that An Jiuxi showed her.

Madam Xia closed her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes. "Yuwei, although we haven't known each other for very long, your father and I truly treat you like our own daughter. Even if some of the things you did in the past were disgraceful, we will find a way to get An Jiuxi to forgive you."

"But you, today..."

Mrs. Xia trembled and didn't know how to say the rest, only remembering the moment she heard the news.

She felt like the sky was falling.

"An Yuwei, you actually have a very good life, but you insist on keeping something that doesn't belong to you inside your body. Defying fate will inevitably backfire!"

An Jiuxi put the contract away and did not return it to Madam Xia.

In other words, they've already reached an agreement!

The atmosphere in the living room was silent; no one spoke.

Jin Yize and Jin Yu went to the side to discuss how to handle the matter. They didn't want to let An Yuwei off easily, but they were uncertain about how to deal with the Xia family couple's attitude.

An Jiuxi sipped her tea, her gaze seemingly lingering on An Yuwei.

"Am I ridiculous?" An Yuwei suddenly turned to look at An Jiuxi, her face full of sarcasm.

“No.” An Jiuxi shook her head. “Do you know how much longer you have to live?”

Upon hearing this, the person sitting opposite was clearly taken aback.

"If we don't remove the things that don't belong to you from your body, you will only live for two years, and you will die suddenly after two years."

An Yuwei suddenly stood up, her pupils dilating in shock. "And then what?"

Seeing An Jiuxi hold up three, she slumped down on the sofa in defeat and finally couldn't help but cry.
