The Counterattack of a Wealthy Family's Substitute

Chapter 117 Yao Yingxi, Aren't you pathetic?

Xu Xinya's delicate brows furrowed slightly as she stared coldly at Xu Hengyuan: "I can't help you."

The evidence clearly states the murder, bribery, and tax evasion charges, making a life sentence a foregone conclusion.

With Yao Yingxi and Xi Yuanchen watching over this matter, she didn't have the ability to handle it.

She helped her mother find a lawyer because she was only involved, not the one who instigated it. She harbored a sliver of hope that Yao Yingxi didn't hate He Qinfang as much as Xu Hengyuan did.

Upon hearing her refusal, Xu Hengyuan flew into a rage, glaring fiercely at Xu Xinya: "Don't forget who raised you. I'm your father. How can you bear to let me stay here for the rest of my life?"

Xu Xinya's lips curled into a sarcastic smile: "Yes, you raised me, but wasn't your purpose in raising me just to send me away so that your company could grow stronger?"

Xu Hengyuan trembled with anger, his face darkening: "Shouldn't we be?"

He didn't think there was anything wrong with it; it's only a matter of time before a girl gets married.

It doesn't matter who she marries, it's better to marry someone who can help her company grow and give her a great reputation.

Xu Xinya scoffed: "Should?"

With a sharp smirk, he said, "You're here today, and the court's verdict hasn't wronged you; it's what you should do."

Xu Hengyuan, with a hawk-like gaze and a wolf-like demeanor, rose up in a rage: "You..."

The uniformed police officer behind him quickly pressed him down with his hand: "1192, be quiet."

Xu Xinya stood up from her chair: "I can't talk to you anymore. The last bit of affection we have as father and daughter is that I came to see you today."

Her eyes were cold as she stared at Xu Hengyuan: "The Spring Festival is just a month away. I sent you some clothes, and the prison guards will give them to you then."

Xu Hengyuan quickly got up from the table and pleaded, "Ya Ya, I was wrong, please help me, please help Dad."

Xu Xinya stopped what she was doing: "I can't help you."

She investigated the matter and found that Xu Hengyuan himself had admitted it. Even without Xi Yuanchen watching over him, he would not have escaped punishment.

Furthermore, there were bribery and tax evasion; it's already fortunate that he wasn't sentenced to death.

Xu Hengyuan said in despair, "Then go and bring your brother to see me."

Knowing that Xu Xinya wouldn't help him no matter what he said, Xu Hengyuan could only ask for other things.

Upon hearing this, Xu Xinya seemed to have heard something particularly amusing and angrily retorted, "Son? The bastard child you had with that slut?"

Xu Hengyuan scolded, "Xu Xinya, no matter what, she is still your brother. You can't talk to him like that."

Xu Xinya sneered: "Brother? The bastard child born to that woman you're raising is someone else's, not your own. Didn't you realize that?"

"In what way does that child resemble you? Huh?"

During this time, she investigated the child.

I didn't originally plan to mention it to Xu Hengyuan, so as not to upset him.

I never imagined that even now, in prison, I still couldn't forget that bastard.

Upon hearing this, Xu Hengyuan jumped up from his chair, exclaiming, "Impossible, impossible!"

He thought Yao Yingxi had lied to him back then, but he didn't expect Xu Xinya to say the same thing.

"You hate me, so you lied to me, right?"

Xu Hengyuan couldn't accept it, after all, he had raised that child for nearly ten years, but it wasn't his own.

Xu Xinya scoffed, "I'd lie to you. What's so great about you that I'd lie to you?"

"Think about it carefully. If that child is yours, why did that bitch not bring the child to see you when you were in prison for so long?"

"If he is your child, why does he look nothing like you and yet call someone else 'Dad'?"

“I heard it with my own eyes and ears, Xu Hengyuan, accept the facts, that child is really not yours.”

Xu Xinya turned to the other side, secretly wiping away the tears on her cheeks, and smiled bitterly with her eyes lowered: "Take good care of yourself."

After saying that, she walked straight out of the visiting area, ignoring Xu Hengyuan's angry curses.

Yao Yingxi never expected that she would run into Xu Xinya, whom she hadn't seen since the wedding day.

She was slightly startled.

Xu Xinya was also taken aback when she saw her.

Yao Yingxi pursed her lips and walked over, about to pass by Xu Xinya.

Xu Xinya scoffed, "Here to watch the joke?"

Yao Yingxi didn't have anyone in prison, so she came here just to see them make a fool of themselves.

Yao Yingxi stopped in her tracks, glanced at her sideways, and remained silent.

She came here because the police captain needed her to elaborate on what happened that day.

"Did I tell you right?"

Seeing that she did not answer, Xu Xinya spoke up again.

Yao Yingxi scoffed, "Whatever you say goes."

I don't want to get entangled with Xu Xinya any further. Now that the Xu family is ruined, Xu Xinya is capable of anything to me.

Xu Xinya shrugged: "Of course, Yao Yingxi, do you think you've won?"

Then, her expression turned cold, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips: "My family is ruined and my people are dead, and you're not much better off than me."

Yao Yingxi was slightly taken aback.

Xu Xinya continued, "You sacrificed your own sister whom you raised, yet you harbor thoughts of wanting you dead. Don't you think you're pathetic?"

Upon hearing this, Yao Yingxi frowned and looked at Xu Xinya in disbelief.

"impossible."

Although Yueyue has grievances against her now, she would never want her to die like this; she is the younger sister she watched grow up.

Xu Xinya laughed as if she had heard a funny joke: "I knew you wouldn't believe it, but that doesn't change the fact."

Yao Yingxi was shocked.

"When Xu Hengyuan caused that car accident, Yao Yingyue was right there listening. Did she tell you that Xu Hengyuan did this?"

Xu Xinya pressed on again, "Really?"

Yao Yingxi felt a chill run through her body instantly. If Yao Yingyue had told her that Xu Hengyuan had tampered with the car that time, she definitely wouldn't have gotten into that car.

But she didn't; she never called herself even once.

She stared at Xu Xinya, her eyes slightly red.

"Yao Yingxi, you didn't expect this, did you?"

Xu Xinya smirked smugly: "Yao Yingyue has always wanted to kill you, but she just couldn't do it. She'd love for you to die."

Yao Yingxi was unable to reply for a long time.

Xu Xinya said coldly, "Knowing that the person you love most wants to kill you, that must feel terrible."

Yao Yingxi gritted her teeth. The sisterly bond between her and Yao Yingyue had long been strained. But she had watched this younger sister grow up with her own eyes, and even though Yao Yingyue had been unfair to her, she had never harbored any intention to harm her.

She came to her senses and said to Xu Xinya, "If that's the case, I really have to thank you for telling me this news. I was just wondering how to deal with you. Since you said so, I'll get Yueyue to testify, and you can go to prison and reunite with He Qinfang."

Upon hearing this, Xu Xinya was surprised that Yao Yingxi had recovered her composure so quickly and was now threatening her.

She smiled calmly: "Yao Yingxi, do you think that's possible?"

"Don't forget, you told me that Yao Yingyue was also an insider at the time, but she never came forward. Why would she come forward now?"
