Chapter 309. Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder (1)
The conversation stunned Yue Lingsi and Xi Xinyi. They exchanged glances at each other as their eyes darkened. Xi Jiyang disappeared around the staircase and there was an odd atmosphere in the air.
“Grandmother, are you okay?” Xi Xinyi asked as she noticed Deng Wenwen seeming unwell.
Deng Wenwen’s breathing hastened. She stared at the staircase without saying anything and her face looked terrible. Xi Xinyi was startled by her reaction.
“Get her the medicine!” Yue Lingsi responded quickly.
Xi Xinyi heard her and quickly grabbed the medicine while Yue Lingsi poured a glass of water for Deng Wenwen to swallow her medicine.
They helped Deng Wenwen to sit on the sofa, and she recovered after some time.
“Mother, are you feeling better now?” Yue Lingsi comforted her, “Father hasn’t really been in a good mood these past few days. You don’t have to take what he said personally. Xiaye really stepped over her boundaries this time. Not only did she hide it from us, but she didn’t even tell you about it. How disrespectful and cold! Even if Xinyi… Well, she shouldn’t have done that anyway…”
“Don’t be angry, Grandmother. She’s penalizing me. If it weren’t for me, things wouldn’t have turned out this way. Grandfather is right. Since things have turned out like this, we should both compromise. After all, the 37% of shares have already been set. Sister is now the Operating President on behalf of Glory World in Yueying, so we can only hope for peace in the future.”
Xi Xinyi gave it some thought before she closed her eyes and said solemnly, “I never expected things to turn out this way. It’s all my fault, but don’t worry, Grandmother. Sister is a member of the Xi family. I believe she wouldn’t betray us. Let’s forget this happened and take it as my compensation towards her.”
