Good Pregnancy Quick Transmigration: The Overly Charming CEO with No Heirs
Chapter 470 Twins 16
Shen Miaoyin and Liu Yiyi escaped with their parents' lives on their side.
But they got separated.
Later, when Shen Miaoyin entered Feixue Manor, she found Liu Yiyi and made her Xie Changkong's third wife.
Xi Yao was still a little confused after hearing this, "But how did Shen Miaoyin and Xie Changkong meet?"
"I really couldn't find that out." Lin Wantang's eyes were cold, and her tone was sarcastic. "Xie Changkong erased all traces of that past, and there isn't a single clue."
Xi Yao frowned; this was yet another point of suspicion.
Just like Xie Changkong's rise to power, there was no information whatsoever.
Where did Shen Miaoyin go after escaping from the small village?
Where did she meet Xie Changkong again?
Shen Miaoyin and Lin Wantang look exactly alike, and Xie Changkong should have been able to tell at first glance that the two had a close relationship.
Why did he bring her to Feixue Manor to be his second wife?
Seeing that she looked thoughtful, Lin Wantang didn't say much, but changed the subject:
"Did you and Yun Gui consummate your marriage last night?"
Xi Yao snapped out of her daze and, seeing her gossipy expression, couldn't help but twitch her lips.
"You even want to get involved in your daughter-in-law's gossip?"
"Any melon tastes good." Lin Wantang looked at her mischievously. "You're amazing. You won over my iceberg son so quickly. How was it? Did you enjoy it? My son is handsome and has a great figure."
Xi Yao: "..."
This mother is absolutely amazing.
Seeing her strange expression, Lin Wantang coughed lightly, put away her joke, and asked about something else:
"Xi Yao, I've noticed you've been trying to win people over lately, giving away generous rewards. Should I take back the management control to you?"
Although she didn't manage affairs, Xi Yao's actions in the manor still couldn't be hidden from her.
Of course, Xi Yao didn't intend to hide it from anyone.
Xi Yao waved her hands repeatedly in refusal: "No need, no need, the housekeeper is too much trouble."
Why can't she just live a leisurely life every day? Why does she have to get involved in this hot potato?
This is truly a thankless task.
"By the way, now that you're housekeeper Shen Miaoyin, you..."
Xi Yao didn't finish her sentence, but Lin Wantang understood.
She gave a cold laugh. "You don't actually think I have some kind of sisterly bond with her, do you?"
Putting aside the fact that she wasn't the original owner, her previous search for Shen Miaoyin was also to repay some of the karmic debt from occupying the body.
Given Shen Miaoyin's hostility towards her, it was impossible for Lin Wantang to develop a close sisterly relationship with her.
Xi Yao remained silent, and Lin Wantang continued to explain: "When I recognized her back then, I saw the hatred in her eyes. She hated me, no, I should say she hated the original owner of this body."
The two of them sneaked out to play, and the original owner of this body returned. She was still the young lady of Shenjian Manor, living a life of comfort and ease.
But Shen Miaoyin lives in hell.
She blamed all the mistakes on the original owner of the body.
Therefore, there is hatred.
Xi Yao took a sip of tea, pondering how to uncover these secrets.
She had a gut feeling that this was a very important matter, related to the success or failure of the mission in this world.
It seems we should start with Xie Changkong and see if we can find anything.
As for Lin Wantang...
Xi Yao glanced at her out of the corner of her eye, who was lost in thought.
It's unlikely we'll get any information out of them in the short term.
Xi Yao suspected that Lin Wantang must have played a significant role in Xie Changkong's rapid rise to power.
After all, Lin Wantang was a time traveler who had transcended the way of thinking in this world. Perhaps she could create miracles, which is why Xie Changkong rose to prominence so quickly.
Xi Yao left Lin Wantang's place quickly.
On her way back, she was stopped by Xie Changkong's men, who said that Xie Changkong wanted to see her.
Xi Yao was very surprised.
After all, she's been in the manor for so long, and in Xie Changkong's eyes she's practically invisible. Why does he want to see her alone today?
Regardless of her inner thoughts, Xi Yao remained expressionless and silently followed the person to Xie Changkong's study.
With a creak, the door opened.
Xi Yao walked in, suppressing all her thoughts, and pretended to be a good daughter-in-law, calling out:
"Father."
Xie Changkong then looked up at her and got straight to the point: "Second brother's wife, I heard you can make ice?"
Xi Yao immediately guessed his intention.
However, she didn't intend to hide it. She smiled and said, "I do know a little bit. I saw it in a travelogue by chance, so I gave it a try, and I didn't expect to succeed."
Xie Changkong looked at her with a deep gaze, "Now that you're a member of Feixue Manor, I won't beat around the bush with you. Write down the ice-making method this afternoon, and I'll have the steward fetch it from Guiyun Pavilion."
"Okay." Xi Yao nodded obediently. "Is there anything else, Father?"
"No, you can leave now."
"Then the daughter-in-law will take her leave."
Xi Yao turned to leave, but was stopped at the door.
"etc."
Xie Changkong narrowed his eyes as he watched her retreating figure. "You go to your mother's every day; you two seem to have a good relationship?"
Xi Yao's lips curled into a mocking smile, but she instantly became respectful and gentle as she turned away.
"Yes, Mother is loving, and I have been bothering you every day."
"Wantang is a cold and aloof person, but you've caught her eye."
Xie Changkong's gaze was sharp as an eagle's. "What do you guys talk about every day? It seems like you have endless topics to discuss?"
"Would you like to hear your mother tell some funny stories from her youth?"
"Really?" Xie Changkong clearly didn't believe it. "Did she tell you where her hometown is?"
Xi Yao looked puzzled. "My mother comes from the Lin family. Although the Lin family has been wiped out for a long time, that doesn't change the fact that it is my mother's hometown. Of course I know that, and I don't need my mother to tell me."
"The Lin family?" Xie Changkong's gaze darkened further as he looked at Xi Yao. "Alright, you can leave now."
"Yes."
Xi Yao turned and left.
They hadn't gone far when they encountered Xie Yungui, who was rushing over.
"My husband!"
Xi Yao nestled into his arms like a little bird returning to its nest, looked up, her eyes sparkling, and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I've come to pick you up." Xie Yungui glanced up at the closed door across the street, then looked down at her with concern. "Yaoyao, are you alright?"
"What could it be?" Xi Yao said with a grin. "My father asked me for the recipe for making ice. I'll write it down when I get back."
"Okay, let's go back then."
Xie Yungui glanced at the door again, then took Xiyao's hand and walked back.
He only learned that Xi Yao had been taken away by the head housekeeper after receiving a message from Lin Wantang.
It's rather unusual for my father to seek out Yao Yao alone just for an ice-making recipe.
Xie Yungui frowned, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
My father has been acting strangely lately, but I don't know what it is.
As soon as he got back, he asked Yao Yao for her ice-making method.
Their Flying Snow Manor doesn't really care about the little money they earn from making ice anymore.
"My husband."
"Um?"
Xie Yungui adopted a gentle expression and looked down at her slightly.
"How did you know I was here?" Xi Yao winked at him. "Have you missed me because you haven't seen me in so long?"
Xie Yungui tightened his grip on her hand slightly, unable to suppress his widening smile. "Yes, I missed Yaoyao. I heard on the way that you had come to Father's study, so I came to pick you up."
"You're so nice." Xi Yao hugged his arm, smiling happily.
"I'm only nice to Yao Yao."
