Lin Yi was slightly shocked. Didn't Wang Xinyan go to Yanjing City to handle the funeral? How to call yourself? Have you come back? No, it’s only been a few days? The week isn’t even here yet!
Although Lin Yi was a little confused, he still answered the phone: "Hello, hello..."
However, Lin Yi picked up the phone, but the call was hung up on the other side.
What does it mean? Wrong call? Or is there something else? Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, then called back. After all, it was the first time Wang Xinyan called him, so he couldn't ignore it no matter what.
"Sorry, the number you dialed has been turned off or is not in the service area. Please call again later..."
The mechanized prompt sounded, reminding Lin Yi that the other party had turned off his phone.
Lin Yi frowned. Could it be that Wang Xinyan was about to call him, but the phone happened to be out of battery?
Lin Yi shook his head and put the phone in his pocket. Since he couldn't get in touch, Lin Yi had no choice. Although he was a little worried, after all, the two met by chance, and Wang Xinyan was far away in Yanjing. A distant water could not save a nearby fire. , Lin Yi had no idea where she was.
In an independent mansion in Yanjing City, a vicious man snatched the mobile phone from Wang Xinyan's hand, slammed it on the ground, stepped on it a few times, and cursed: "Smelly girl, do you want to scream?" Someone is coming? I didn’t expect you to have a mobile phone hidden on your body! It’s a good thing I didn’t dare to go far and keep an eye on you, otherwise it would have ruined everything!”
Wang Xinyan silently glanced at the broken phone that had been stepped on, and raised her head coldly: "I am your cousin, and you treat me like this?"
"Cousin? Huh, let's spit out the property that has been devoured by our Xiao family first!" The man snorted coldly: "According to grandpa's will, you have been married to someone else. Before the other party comes to pay the betrothal gift, don't even think about it. Get out of this room!"
After saying that, the man closed the door of the room with a bang, and then there was the sound of the door being locked...
Wang Xinyan sighed helplessly. If she had known that the Xiao family's situation was so bad, she would not have come back. Not only are his parents now under house arrest by these people, but he himself is also inexplicably engaged to an unknown man because of his grandfather's suicide note!
Wang Xinyan didn't know until she arrived at the Xiao family. The Xiao family is not as glamorous as it seems on the outside. Although the two uncles are competing for the family property, the Xiao family has already become stronger outside!
My grandfather suffered from Alzheimer's disease, and in the last few years of his life, he signed several confusing contracts. Not only did the company lose a lot of money, but it also owed a lot of debt! Even if the company is sold now, it will be enough to pay off the debt just now!
The two uncles who were still fighting for the family property surprisingly united again after finding out the amount of the family property! Now that you can't even repay your debts, why are you trying to grab a piece of property? Where is the property to be snatched?
The rest are just a few properties that the old man bought when he was still alive. However, the properties that can be counted with fingers are not worth fighting for. They can be divided roughly equally.
In the eyes of ordinary people, these villas and real estate are already worth thousands of dollars. They can live a well-off life for a lifetime just by relying on rent. But for the two Xiao brothers who are used to living a lavish life. I can't stand it anymore.
So, they set their sights on their sister, Wang Xinyan's mother, Xiao Qinlin, who had been away from home for many years.
Their reason is very simple and shameless, that is, Mr. Xiao gave them 50,000 yuan as travel expenses when Xiao Qinlin ran away from home and eloped with Wang Xinyan's father, Wang Xuben!
And this 50,000 yuan in travel expenses was said to be Wang Xu's capital investment in starting a company, and now he was asked to pay it back with interest!
Of course, in addition to Mr. Xiao's unknown will, the Xiao brothers also have an IOU in their hands, which was written by Xiao Qinlin back then!
Although Mr. Xiao thought that Xiao Qinlin was his daughter, even if Xiao Qinlin broke up with the family. She eloped with Wang Xuben, but he also gave her 50,000 yuan as payment. After all, she was still his daughter, so she couldn't be owed too much.
But Xiao Qinlin back then was acting on her own initiative. Since we broke up with the Xiao family, we naturally wouldn't take the Xiao family's money in vain, so we just wrote an IOU to Mr. Xiao, saying that if we become prosperous in the future, we will return it with interest.
Mr. Xiao didn't even think about his daughter returning it, so he just laughed it off. He asked his eldest son Xiao Ji to throw away the IOU, but Xiao Ji was careful and hid the IOU.
After Mr. Xiao returned to the West, this IOU became evidence for the Xiao brothers to blackmail their sister Xiao Qinlin.
With the IOU and Mr. Xiao's will, Xiao Qinlin was helpless even if she was extremely angry. Who asked her to write that IOU back then? Of course, this is not the most irritating thing. The most irritating thing is that Mr. Xiao actually found an in-law for Wang Xinyan in his will. Isn’t it a little too early to get engaged for a girl who is only in her third year of high school?
The Xiao brothers were very arrogant and said that if Xiao Qinlin did not hand over 20% of their company's shares, they would go to court and let outsiders see that after Mr. Xiao's death, his daughter not only left his body alone, but also wanted to Trying to embezzle the brothers' property!
The conscience of heaven and earth, who wants to embezzle whom?
Although Xiao Qinlin resolutely broke away from her family for the sake of love, she was still a filial person in the final analysis, otherwise she would not have been able to immediately put down what she was doing to deal with Mr. Xiao's funeral.
Of course, Lin Yi didn't know that the Xiao family was in chaos, but even if he did, he didn't know how to intervene. This kind of household matter is the most difficult to solve.
When Lin Yi returned to the villa, he saw Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu digging something in the yard of the villa. Each of them was holding a small shovel and digging happily. Chen Yushu's face was covered with mud. Chu Mengyao was doing better, but her clothes were a little dusty and her face was not as serious as Xiao Shu's.
Lin Yi parked the car in the yard of the villa, got out of the car, and looked at Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu with some confusion: "Yao Yao, Xiao Shu, what are you doing?"
"Oh? Brother Wrigley, are you back? We are digging for treasures. Come and help me and Sister Yaoyao! We are going to be exhausted!" Chen Yushu saw Lin Yi coming back and waved to him very happily.
"Xiao Shu, what did you ask him to do?" Chu Mengyao glared at Chen Yushu, lowered her voice and said, "Wouldn't you feel embarrassed if he saw you?"
"Sister Yaoyao, the key is in our hands anyway. Even if he digs it out, there will be a lock on the box, right?" Chen Yushu shook the key in his hand and said to Chu Mengyao. (To be continued.
