Just as Yun Xi was about to leave, Mu Feichi suddenly thought of something. He leaned back against the sofa and casually added, “I heard that your sister and your mother offended the principal of Jingdu High School and then proceeded to beg for help from Jiang Chenghuan. I wanted to make sure that you knew what they were up to.”

These things were nothing to him. He only needed to say a word to resolve them.

However, he did not want her family to take advantage of her or cause trouble for her. Soon it would be the socialite ball, and they both understood the principle of being bound together for good or ill.

If it was simply a case where they could apologize and solve the problem, he might have intervened. But this mother and daughter were so ridiculous.

So he didn’t do anything. He wanted to let her deal with it personally. He hoped that she would understand that if she had to compromise all the time, it wasn’t going to resolve the problems at their root.

If not for the fact that they were related by blood, causing her to be held back by all sorts of moral obstacles, she would be even more ruthless and decisive when dealing with her family, who were only going to drag her down.

Now that she was climbing higher and higher, the relationship with her family was slowly surfacing. If she did not get rid of these problems that didn’t help her and could even affect her reputation, she would have a load of problems in the future.

Yun Xi nodded. She stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at him. She chuckled. “I know what they want to do, so I did as they wished and asked Second Young Master Jiang for help. However, it’s not that easy for them to take advantage of me.”

“Oh? They’ve already looked for you?” From her tone, she seemed to have come up with a plan already.

“Yes, I know what you’re worried about. This time, I will take care of it. No matter what, I will not let them become my stumbling block.”

Ever since Liang Xiuqin had forced her to apologize to Han Wanling, the last bit of feelings she had had left in her heart had been wiped clean.

She still had many things to do. When it came to people and things that were not worth her time, she would not show mercy anymore.

Hearing the determination in her voice, Mu Feichi sighed. His heart ached for how strong she was going to have to be.

It was precisely because of this that he could not bear to see her suffer any grievances.

As soon as Yun Xi left, Mu Feichi took the phone and called Jiang Chenghuan.

After receiving his call, Jiang Chenghuan’s voice could be heard. “I heard that the Qiao Corporation’s financial evaluation is out. Did it surprise you?”

“What’s there to be surprised about? However, it turned out that I underestimated the Qiao family’s side branch.”

“To be able to make you underestimate their strength, it looks like Qiao Xianqing isn’t simple. Aren’t you afraid that your precious treasure will lure the wolf into your house?”

“So what if Qiao Xianqing is a wolf? I’m not dead yet!”

With him and the Mu family around, no matter how ambitious the Qiao family was, they would be suppressed by the big three noble families. Even if they wanted to stir up trouble, they had to ask for their approval.

Besides, shouldn’t it be his woman’s job to stir up trouble? How was it his problem?

“That’s true. You must have the same reason as your girl for looking for me this afternoon. You’re calling about Liang Xiuqin, right?”

Jiang Chenghuan roughly explained Yun Xi’s plan to him. In the end, he did not forget to say, “Your girl isn’t stupid. It will soon be the socialite ball. She knows very well what she has to do in the position she is in. Why do you have to worry so much? Even raising a daughter isn’t as tiring as how you’re doting over her.”

“If I want to dote on her, what will you do about it?” Mu Feichi grumbled and he looked up, only to see Great White, who had just entered. He slowly stood up.

“If it were me, I would have been even more ruthless. Since she left the matter to you, you should light a fire. Only when there is no way out will a person’s weakness come into play.”

“I know, I know. Is there anything you won’t do for your girl?”
