Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard his fifth brother's name, and looked blankly at the housekeeper Lao Chen who was cleaning up at the side.

"Didn't my fifth brother die in an accident?"

Old Chen was so silent that he didn't dare to reply. However, because of the relationship between master and servant, he gave a vague advice, "Miss Qi, the Fifth Master also signed the equity transfer agreement before he died."

Having said this, I dare not say another word.

He even regretted letting Xiao Yu in. He thought that Xiao Yunting only had this kind of family left. He had been supporting her to study and live in Neptune all these years because he was thinking of his old relationship, so he took matters into his own hands.

But now that he remembered the methods the young family head used to deal with the Xiao family, his dazed mind suddenly came to his senses.

Xiao Yu felt as if he was struck by lightning at this moment. He opened his big eyes and looked at Xiao Yunting in disbelief, "Did you kill the fifth brother? How could you do this? He is your biological uncle... ugh!"

The woman's hysterical roar was sealed by a golden needle before she could even leave her mouth.

The golden needle was as thin as a cow's hair, and she felt a pain in her neck and completely lost her voice. She couldn't even touch anything.

Ye Lan calmly retracted his hand and uttered two words in the other's shocked eyes, "Noisy."

The dining room suddenly became extremely quiet.

It was even eerily quiet.

Xiao Yunting lowered his eyes and continued to pick vegetables and peel shrimps for the girl slowly, but the aura around him was no longer as cold as ice, and there was a faint smile in his eyes.

He knew Ye Lan was protecting him.

Everyone believed that he was cold-blooded and cruel, and he hated killers even for his family. Only Ye Lan, who had seen his memories, knew that Xiao Yu showed contempt for him crawling in like a dog in the mourning hall, and did not dare to get close. , even when passing by the garden, I saw him being stepped on the ground and chewing mud by several cousins, turning a blind eye.

Xiao Wu personally planned a conspiracy and united with other forces in Europe in an attempt to kill him.If Lian Mai hadn't accidentally met Ye Lan that time, I'm afraid he would be the one who died in a foreign country now.

The same surname was Xiao, but these people never regarded him as a family member, but one by one used this blood relationship to kidnap him morally.

Even ordinary people can't stand it, let alone someone with a weak relationship like Ye Lan.

So the assistant continued to remind without sympathy: "Ms. Xiao, the equity assets you currently have are evaporating at an alarming rate every second, so you'd better sign quickly."

The contract documents were submitted again.

This time Xiao Yu didn't dare to push away.

She clutched her neck and screamed for a while before she finally recognized her situation. She took the document with trembling fingers and looked at the treasure her father had left for her, shedding tears of pain and regret.

After signing your name, the document becomes official.

The assistant made a dignified call and asked the company in New York to stop trading operations.

This kind of gangster-like and almost brutal behavior made Xiao Yu face to face with Xiao Yunting's methods for the first time, and he felt deep fear in his heart.

Now that the matter has been resolved, Ye Lan withdrew the golden needle and opened her mute point.

"see a visitor out."

Xiao Yunting immediately ordered.

"Yes, Master." Lao Chen hurriedly stepped forward and pulled out Xiao Yu's chair. "Miss Qi, please come here. A servant has already packed the luggage."

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Yu changed from the high-ranking mistress of this house to a drowned dog who was kicked out. The difference between before and after was so big that she accepted her incompetence for a while.

She looked at Xiao Yunting sincerely, and said fancifully: "After all, we are a family, and I have a room here. Can't I be allowed to live here?"

If she, the seventh young lady of the Xiao family, was kicked out like this, she would definitely become the laughing stock of the entire imperial capital.

"I will never interfere in the company or your personal love life again. Yun Ting, even if my aunt begs you."

She was humble and no longer had the slightest bit of arrogance she had just now.

However, "No." Xiao Yunting's indifferent face showed no emotion, and there was obvious disgust in his eyes as he looked at her, "I don't want her to be unhappy when she sees you."

she?

At first, Xiao Yu didn't understand. It wasn't until Xiao Yunting raised her hand that was resting under the table that her eyes suddenly widened.

"Aren't you in an adopted relationship?!" She blurted out.

"It used to be." Xiao Yunting remained calm, holding Ye Lan's hand, his voice low and firm, "Now, she is the mistress here."

hostess.

These three words put Ye Lan in a good mood. The corners of his lips raised slightly. After taking the last sip of soup, he expressed his attitude, "Since this is my place, I naturally don't want anyone to be an eyesore."

From the time she first entered the house to now, her confrontation with Xiao Yu had almost always been a one-sided situation of being crushed.

Xiao Yu thought that the girl was from a small family, so she was timid and could only hide behind the man and dare not speak out. She never thought that she was not taken seriously from the beginning to the end. She was the one-man show and the clown the whole time. .

The feeling of humiliation suddenly surged into her heart, causing her face to turn red. But now and then, no matter how angry she was, she couldn't get angry, otherwise she didn't know what tricks Xiao Yunting, the devil, would come up with to protect the girl.

Finally, when she pulled her suitcase and left in disgrace, she felt regretful and unwilling.

If he had known earlier, he should not have come back. Xiao Yunting might have been able to support her for the rest of her life while she was out of sight abroad.

If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have looked down upon others and spoken rudely to Ye Lan. If I hadn't, I wouldn't have been driven away like a bereaved dog in the middle of the night.

"They are all those old guys who come up with bad ideas." Xiao Yu pulled the suitcase and angrily cursed the gang who tricked her into coming back, saying that Xiao Yunting adopted an unrelated person with a foreign surname in order to leave the family property in the hands of others. , urging her to come back and take charge of the overall situation, "This bullshit host has made me miserable, and I haven't seen him look twice at Tan Xiaoran."

At this point, she suddenly remembered.

Where is Tan Xiaoran?

Tan Xiaoran originally wanted to leave together, but unfortunately he was stopped as soon as he left the gate.

"Don't you think it's a pity that you spent so much effort to get close to the Xiao family, sneak into the house, and just leave like this?" Ye Lan walked out of the dining room leisurely, came to her, and asked with a cold expression.

Tan Xiaoran turned to look at her, with a pair of passionate eyes shining on her porcelain-white face like a ragdoll, which was particularly moving, "I don't know what you are talking about. Did Miss Ye misunderstand me? Aunt Yu and I just happened by chance. We met on the plane and she invited me to her home for dinner because she thought she was going to get along with me. I don’t know the dispute between you.”

Ye Lan met her eyes and seemed to be moved. His reaction was half a beat too slow, "Really?"

"Yes, everything I say is true, you have to believe me." Tan Xiaoran's eyes flashed with light, the corners of her lips raised slightly, but her face became more and more charming. She even took two steps closer, almost touching the tip of her nose. He wanted to stick it to Ye Lan's face and exhaled like a blue breath: "I am innocent."

The two young girls are both slender and graceful, and their faces are exquisite and beautiful. When they are close, the atmosphere is charming and ambiguous, which can't help but create an effect that makes people jealous and heartbeat.

And just when Tan Xiaoran was about to take a step closer, something suddenly fell from her head, tightly clasping her head, and it immediately felt like thousands of needles were piercing her brain at the same time.

"what!"
