That little girl from the Wang family was too stupid to see clearly. She thought that sleeping with XI jingxing would turn her into a phoenix.
In fact, what she was waiting for might be hell.
Du Xiaoman waved her hand and called for the waiter to pay the bill. When she paid the bill, she couldn’t believe her ears. “Wait a minute, how much did you say?”
Her eyes were sharp and fierce, which scared the cashier.
She was so gentle and harmless just now… how could she change her face so suddenly? It was too scary.
The cashier: “It’s a total of 3,880 yuan. The old lady who was with you just packed 10 desserts and an 8-inch cake. Oh, she also left a message.”
The cashier handed over a note.
Du Xiaoman opened it with a frown. On it were the words “Courtesy, justice, integrity, and shame.”. Even if it was written with a ballpoint pen, these words were still written magnificently and powerfully by the other party.
This was completely intentional. She deliberately used these four words to humiliate her!
Du Xiaoman was about to tear up the note. After thinking for a while, she folded it and put it into her bag. She said to the cashier with a cold face, “Pay the bill.”
She would definitely remember today’s humiliation.

After a day of recuperation, Xi Jingxing’s health was actually not that bad.
Seeing that Huo Mingyue had come to visit him, he felt a little better, especially since Huo Mingyue had brought cakes and so many desserts.
After all, she was his mother. Blood was thicker than water, so how could she really be so heartless to him.
“Mom, why did you bring so many things over? You’ve wasted so much money.”
Huo Mingyue glanced at him and treated him like air. She turned to ask the butler, “Where’s Rong Rong? Is she okay? Why did I hear that she seems to have fainted? It’s all my fault that I was jet-lagged all day yesterday and didn’t come to visit her in time.”
Xi Lurong didn’t want to see her sister-in-law. She had lost all face in front of her family and relatives.
However, Huo Mingyue insisted on seeing her. She could not hide anymore and could only come out to meet the guests.
“Rong Rong!”Huo Mingyue exclaimed and stepped forward to hold her hand. “Seeing that you’ve lost weight, sister-in-law’s heart aches. You must calm down and take care of your body!”
She paused and continued, “We’re both old. Half of our bodies have already been buried. Our children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. “I understand your intention to adopt a daughter for Liao Cheng, but don’t work too hard. Don’t you think about how many years you have left to live? “Relax a little.”
Xi Lurong’s blood pressure was showing signs of rising again. She pulled her hand back and said in an obscure voice, “Thank you for your concern, sister-in-law.”
Huo Mingyue blinked. “Of course. Sister-in-law is like a mother.”
Xi Luorong said, “Sister-in-law, actually…”
She was still unwilling to give up. Why was her birthday party going to be ruined and Huo Mingyue still acting so nonchalant?
She still wanted to clear things up with Chen Xiangxiang. How did it become that she wanted to adopt a granddaughter?
She didn’t need a granddaughter in this lifetime! She didn’t do anything wrong back then. It was all to let her son give birth to a grandson and establish a foothold in the Liao family!
Huo Mingyue said, “Oh right, I bought some desserts and cakes for you today. We can have afternoon tea and chat. “But I only found out that you’re suffering from high blood pressure after I came here. Then, I can’t eat it anymore. Sigh.”
The sweet taste of the cake filled the tip of one’s nose, making one’s appetite soar.
The desserts and cakes in this shop were indeed quite delicious. They were considered high-end desserts in beiqiao city, and basically everyone knew about them.
XI jingxing said, “It just so happens that you bought a little too much. How about this? I’ll Call Yan Yan and ask her and Xi Yan to come over and eat the cake together. We’ll have a little gathering as well.”
He was a little eager as he took out his phone and was about to make a call.
Huo Mingyue was not going to stand on ceremony when it came to Xi Jingxing.
Her expression suddenly darkened. “Don’t you know that Yan Yan got injured in order to save someone? She’s even in a wheelchair. Are you asking her to come over?”
Xi Jingxing was a little embarrassed. He really didn’t know about this. Yan XI would never inform him about anything.
“Then I’ll go and visit her,”Xi Jingxing said quickly.
“No need. I’ll go.”Huo Mingyue got someone to pick up the desserts and cakes again, “Seeing you probably won’t help her recover. Don’t you know who she saved? That Wang Zinan. If you want to sue her, she’ll go and find trouble with Yan Yan. She wants her father to pay for what he did to her.”
“Do you think Yan Yan will be happy to see you? Other fathers don’t even pamper their daughters enough, yet you’re the one who’s causing trouble for her.”
“She’s really unlucky to have a father like you!”
Xi jingxing watched Huo Mingyue leave in the car. He stood there for a long time without coming back to his senses.
After all, Yan Xi was his daughter whom he had doted on for a long time. He felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
However, Huo Mingyue could also be considered to have reminded him that Wang Zinan not only stole the jewelry and drugged him, but also wanted to hurt Yan XI.
This time, he was going to sue the other party ruthlessly. He would definitely not be kind.
“If the Wang family wants to come and plead for mercy again, just beat them up. Don’t show mercy. If it gets out of hand, just say that they’re trespassing.”
Xi Jingxing ordered the butler with a dark expression, giving the butler a fright.
Mr. XI was the kindest person in the world. Why did he have such a fierce expression?
He must have really doted on his daughter, which was why he was so magnanimous!

Huo Mingyue’s visit was in vain. Yan Xi was not home when she went out.
Xi Yan saw so many desserts and cakes and could not resist the temptation. She moved a small stool and sat with Huo Mingyue. “Grandma, let me accompany you for tea and snacks.”
He wanted to take advantage of the fact that Yan Feilu did not come home last night. He wanted to eat as much as he could!
His cousin was really too perverted. He had to calculate the calories after a meal and then force him to pick up the iron to pay for the sins he had committed.
He was a third-year high school examinee, so he had a lot of pressure on his studies and also consumed a lot of energy. Why couldn’t he indulge himself and eat as much as he wanted!
“Grandma, you’re So Nice!”Xi Yan was so happy that tears were about to fall.
Huo Mingyue:”…”
She glanced at Xi Yan without batting an eyelid and quietly moved her body away.
The child did not seem to have a high IQ. was there really something wrong with the Xi family’s genes? Fortunately, Yan Xi was not like the Xi family. Most of her genes were inherited from herself and the Yan family.
However, there were good things about being silly. At least, she was honest and would not hold it in.
Thinking about it this way, this grandson of his still had some redeeming qualities.
Huo Mingyue smiled slightly. Her wrinkles were filled with kindness. “If you like it, then eat more.”
Xi Yan: “Mmm, thank you, grandmother! I can eat all of it. I definitely won’t waste it!”

Because she had already arranged to meet Jin Zhao and Ying Shiyu on Saturday, even though her feet were inconvenient, Yan Xi still insisted on going out.
As expected, Jin Zhao and Ying Shiyu were waiting by the side of the road when they arrived at the agreed place.
Both of them were shocked when they saw Gu Nianzhi Feng come down with a wheelchair.
“Miss Yan, are your injuries that serious?”Ying Shiyu walked up and frowned as she sized gu nianzhi up.
Yan XI gestured, “No, it’s just an ankle injury. It’s not that serious.”
