Yang Jingxian finally looked a little better and she nodded and said, “What you said makes sense. Regardless of how Rourou has been in our house in the past two months, he was injured in your house, which you cannot deny and forget.”

Lin Ru sighed and replied with a nod, “We know that. We have expelled Xiao. Yao Jinning from our house and Shengda breaks her contract with him. You can be sure. Yao Jinning won't be able to hurt Rourou again.”

Yang Jingxian smiled. "Are you really willing to do this?"

Lin Ru felt a touch of irony in Yang Jingxian's tone of speech, but she didn't say anything. If it was before, he would have replied to her. She had never liked this celebrity brother-in-law of hers because she had always felt Yang Jingxian behave demeaningly in front of her, so she had never given up on Yang Jingxian. However, he could not behave like that today. She knew that if she wanted to obtain her daughter's forgiveness, she shouldn't have a fight with Yang Jingxian.

With this thought, Lin Ru forced a smile and said, “I am completely blind. I had no idea my daughter was suffering so much as I kept a poisonous snake by my side. I deserve to be bitten back. But now I just want to see Xiao Rou and tell her that I know the truth and I know I was wrong.”

“Then, you can wait for Rourou here. Jing had gone to pick her up," Yang Jingxian said, and then added, "His brothers have sent her to school every day since Rourou started school."

Lin Ru smiled. “We know that you take good care of Rourou.”

He had been ridiculed by Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa every time they saw him, and he knew they had always chosen Yao Jinning. He knew it was because of Xiao Rou, but he did not like how they realized the truth yet did not tell him.

But he could not say that now, and knew that he also had no reason for it, because he knew that even if they came to him and told him the truth about Yao Jinning, he had no reason to, he would not believe them but would think that they were trying to sow discord between him and Yao Jinning for the sake of Xiao Rou. Fortunately, it was not too late for him to know the truth now. He still has a chance to make up for it ...

The Xiao Group President's Office.

The secretary knocked on the door and entered. He looked at Xiao Yan hesitantly and said softly, "President, your sister ... Miss Xiao Jinning wants to see you."

Xiao Yan frowned and clenched the pen in his hand. He had taken a business trip to City C yesterday and paid no attention to the news. He had not read the news about the Xiao Family until he returned to City A this morning. How dare he still come to her?

Does he have anywhere else to go?

Xiao Yan was silent for two seconds before nodding and saying, "Let him enter."

Xiao Jinning was unable to return to the Xiao Family last night, so she bought a suit outside to replace. He wore a mask, a hat, and large sunglasses that almost covered half of his face. Well-wrapped, she was not as flashy as usual.

He went in and took off everything that covered his face. As he looked at Xiao Yan, he yelled sadly and called out softly, "Yan ..."

Yang Jingxian's son had never been close to her since childhood, and only Xiao Yan would protect her. Now he had no support in the entire Xiao Family, so Xiao Yan who grew up with him was his only hope.

Seeing him, Xiao Yan suddenly felt an urge to figure out how the woman would defend herself. He frowned and asked, “Why are you dressed like this? What's going on?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, got up from his chair, went to the black leather sofa in the middle of the office and sat down. Then he asked Xiao Jinning to sit down as well and asked gently, “What happened? I went to City C on business yesterday and just got off the plane.”

Xiao Jinning's eyes twinkled and then quickly became dim. He said softly, "Our cousin thought I took Rourou's place, so they slandered me in front of Chengyu, Mother and Father. They all misunderstood me and kicked me out of the house. Only you can help me now.”

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows. As he expected, he blamed the Xiao brothers. This woman is truly shameless!

Xiao Yan asked, "Is that wrong?"

Since Xiao Yan's reaction was not as he expected, Xiao Jinning did not know what to say. He looked at Xiao Yan doubtfully and made a puzzled voice. "Hmm?"

Xiao Yan leaned back, looked into Xiao Jinning's eyes and once again asked coldly, "Is it wrong for them to throw you out of the house?"

Xiao Jinning became confused and replied earnestly, “Yan, I don't understand what you're talking about! I'm your sister. I belong to the Xiao Family.”

"You're not." Xiao Yan chuckled and looked at Xiao Jinning, saying, “Have you forgotten about it? You are not the biological daughter of Father and Mother.”

His words seemed to have dealt a huge blow to him; he looked at Xiao Yan, asking, "Yan, why are you saying this ..."

"Did I say something wrong?" Xiao Yan smiled mockingly before continuing, “If I were you, I would leave after knowing my true identity, returning to Xiao Rou what belonged to him, I will leave after knowing my true identity, and hold a press conference to tell the truth to the world. That way, you will not only gain a reputation as a generous person, but you will also get support from your fans. In addition, you will get the help of my mother because she will feel guilty towards you, and then your career will rise to a new level".

Xiao Jinning finally understood what Xiao Yan was trying to say, and there was a hint of hatred in his eyes as he said, "It turns out you want me to leave the Xiao Family as soon as Xiao Rou returns, right?"

Xiao Yan sneered, “You finally understand. Good for you."

“Why should I go?” Unsure, Xiao Jinning glared at Xiao Yan who was sitting across casually and with a faintly mocking smile on his face. “I have been a daughter of the Xiao Family since I was born. Why do you want me to go?”

"I don't care." Xiao Yan smiled. “What I want is a sister who has a blood relationship with me, not a sneaky girl who has no blood relationship with me. Do you understand?"

Xiao Jinning suddenly stood up, shouting, "You already know about that!"

Xiao Yan replied with a smile, "So what?"

"You're just making fun of me!" Xiao Jinning glared at Xiao Yan viciously and shouted, "You all wait to see how pitiful I will be, but I won't let you win!"
