After receiving the certificate, she was pinched and doted on by the wealthy heir.

"If I remember correctly, you have always followed the route of being a wealthy and beautiful daughter. If people know that you are not living well in the Zhou family, you will not be able to hide it with your vest."

Zhou Xier's face was livid, and he wanted to cut the woman in front of him into pieces.

After enduring it again and again, she said bitterly: "Don't talk to me about all these things. Just tell me how you can promise to forgive me?"

"I made it very clear at Zhou's house that day. Unless you and your brother apologize together, I will not accept it. Speaking of which, you two came up with the stupid idea together. Why is it that you were the only one to take the blame in the end? Don't you Do you think it’s unfair?”

Xia Taozhi blinked.

"Fair? Haha... there is no such thing as fairness. Just like between you and me, if you hadn't climbed up to Han Xiao, I would never have known you in my life, and you would not have entered our world."

Zhou Xier sneered, "Stop sowing discord here, I won't betray my brother."

"I'm not too idle. What good will it do me to stir up dissension in your family?"

"Then why didn't you agree?!"

"Because I'm not happy, because it's not true."

"Xia Taozhi, don't go too far! Don't think that you are really a rich man! Let's see how long Han Xiao can stay interested in you. Wait until he..."

She couldn't continue her angry words because there were several hidden bodyguards surrounding her.

Wearing black clothes and wearing half-masks, they had a cold and intimidating aura and directly surrounded the people brought by Zhou Xier.

Xia Taozhi was also a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, when Han Xiao said he would send someone to protect her last time, he actually did so.

"You, who are you guys?!"

Zhou Xier was startled.

The secret bodyguards just protected Xia Taozhi and seemed to be oblivious to the problem.

Soon, she recognized the identities of these bodyguards: "You were at my grandpa's birthday party before..."

Immediately, her face turned pale.

This is Han Xiao's person.

Han Xiao actually handed over the confidants he had cultivated to this woman? !

She also thought that a girl with a mere civilian status would not be able to last forever even if she married Han Xiao, and would be kicked out in a few years at most.

Now it seems that she was wrong.

Xia Taozhi looked at the bodyguard beside him with satisfaction.

At critical moments, this man is quite reliable.

She waved her hand towards Zhou Xi'er: "Goodbye, you'd better go back and discuss with your family before you come to me. I won't accept it if everyone is not together."

With the help of the secret guards, she successfully broke through Zhou Xier's encirclement and walked into the elevator.

The moment the elevator door closed, she could still see the other person's livid face.

Xia Taozhi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief - the water in Zhou's house was also very deep this time.

At the same time, the Zhou family was clouded.

Mr. Zhou had just listened to the reply from his confidant butler, and felt that his blood pressure, which had just subsided, was beginning to rise again.

He quickly sat down and closed his eyes slightly: "Tell yourself, is this really happening?"

Mrs. Zhou, who was standing opposite, stumbled to explain: "Originally, this matter was Xi'er's fault. Isn't it right for her to take the initiative to apologize? It's all that Xia's fault. She thought she was Mrs. Han, so she blamed Qiao for not giving it to our Zhou family. face."

In Mrs. Zhou's view, setting up an apology banquet and inviting relatives and friends to witness it was already a great deal of face to the other party.

She was considered to be Han Xiao's elder. Who would have thought that Xia Tao would not give any face to him at all, and would only accept the apology after he opened his mouth and asked both of them to apologize.

Forget it about Zhou Xier, after all, he is not her biological child.

But Zhou Qin was her biological flesh and blood after waiting for so long, and she couldn't bear to let him suffer this injustice.

That's why Zhou Xi'er was asked to stand alone at the apology banquet.

Originally, she thought that since her old man came to visit in person, Han Xiao should just leave it alone. This apology banquet should have ended in peace, and the two families would get back together.

It's fine now. Mr. Zhou learned the news when he came back from the hospital, and his face became even worse with anger.

"Dad, we have already lowered our heads. We cannot let that little brat Han Xiao continue to dominate! The land has been taken away by him, do we still want to give it up?"

Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth, "Aqin is the eldest grandson of our Zhou family. He will be on his own like Han Xiao in the future. If we apologize to his wife now, where will our Zhou family's face go?"

Mr. Zhou no longer wants to speak.

I feel like saying even one more word is tiring.

He directly bypassed his daughter-in-law and ordered the housekeeper: "Let Zhou Nuo come to see me later, prepare generous gifts, and bring A Qin and Xi'er..."

"Yes, sir."

Mrs. Zhou's heart suddenly trembled, and she reluctantly twitched her lips: "Dad, why is this necessary? Let me do it..."

"You don't need to say anything. You are tired from worrying about my birthday party these days. Take a good rest." Mr. Zhou stood up, turned around and said after not taking two steps, "I will have someone book a flight ticket for you later." , you go to our island for a good vacation, play for a month or two and then come back."

Mrs. Zhou was shocked and clenched her teeth so hard that her palms almost bled.

In the ward, Xia Taozhi wiped her father's body carefully and changed his clothes.

The nurse was helping and said with a smile: "My husband's hands are also moving today. When I gave him the nutritional injection in the morning, his eyelids were still moving. I recorded it and will send it to you later."

"Thank you, Aunt Qiaojuan."

"You're welcome, it should be."

They are all working as caregivers, but here they work for less money and more money. The employer is a young girl who seems to be nice and gentle.

"However, in the past two days, I have noticed that there are always people sneaking around at the door of our ward... I took a look that day and it was a child."

Aunt Qiaojuan frowned: "I don't know whose child is always rushing to the hospital. When I went to turn on the water yesterday, I almost hit him."

Xia Taozhi's heart moved slightly: "What kind of child?"

"She's about eleven or twelve years old, and she's that tall."

After tidying up the ward, Xia Taozhi went to the doctor's office again.

When he came out, a short black figure rushed towards Xia Taozhi and bumped into Xia Taozhi's stomach: "I let you bully my mother, let you bully us!! I'll beat you to death!"

She was caught off guard and almost knocked to the ground.

The back of her head hit the door panel behind her hard, and she suddenly felt pain. The pain made her eyes shine with stars.

Taking a closer look, he turned out to be her nominal brother—Xia Li.

Over time, Xia Li has gained a lot of weight. Compared with the white and tender figure before, he is a bit more sturdy and has a face that is not to be trifled with.

There was a fierce look in his eyes, and he was holding a stick in his hand, and he hit Xia Taozhi on the forehead!

Xia Taozhi can't hide!

At the critical moment, a big hand pulled her over.

Before she could stand still, she was leaning into the other person's arms.

With a bang, the stick fell heavily on the door panel...
