Chapter 428: Meeting Between the Two Families
On the other side, Wang Lei was angry, and she stared fiercely at Shen Xi. She gritted her teeth and said viciously, "Shen Xi, you indeed have an exaggerated opinion of your abilities. Do you think a peasant girl from a small town can defeat me? You can’t even afford a toilet in Beijing. Do you think you can afford to raise Guan Lei?"
Guan Lei just wanted to say he didn’t need Xi to raise him. As long as Xi acknowledged his identity, he could raise Xi. He could bring his house, cars, and other assets to raise her. But someone forestalled him.
"Who said Xi can’t afford a house and raise Guan Lei?" Shen Qian said loudly with a glass of champagne in her hand.
Looking at Wang Lei, whose eyes were red with anger, Shen Qian snorted and asked, "Did you say that?"
Although Wang Lei was angry, she was still rational. Shen Qian was from the Shen Corporation, and her husband’s family was the Zheng Family, which controlled 60% of the hospitals in the country. She knew she could not offend them, so she could only endure and shut up.
Shen Qian placed the wine glass in Zheng Huai’s hand—Zheng Huai was her son. She pulled out Shen Xi and sighed, "It’s a pity someone bullied Xi when she first came. And someone also derided her for lacking a house. It was way out of line."
Shen Qian wiped the nonexistent tears on her face. Her beautiful lips opened and closed as she said domineeringly, "Then let’s go to the Savoye Garden in the south of the city. There’s a quadrangle courtyard. I think it’s suitable for you to raise your boyfriend."
Everyone was in amazement suddenly, and they began to whisper. The Savoye Garden’s quadrangle courtyards were one of the best mansions in Beijing. It was the kind that people might not be able to afford even if they had enough money but no noble status.
