A Beijing socialite stole my boyfriend; she went crazy after I got married.

Xie Jing said firmly.

Xie Qingyang was stunned.

She quickly recalled what had happened before; she had said she didn't want a father like that, and that man surnamed Wang must have relayed those words to Xie Jing.

Xie Qingyang: "That was just something I said in anger, how could you take it seriously—"

Xie Jing interrupted her again, "You and I are not related by blood. I don't even want to mention your mother's name, and I will not have any contact with her."

Xie Qingyang looked at him in disbelief.

No.

impossible.

That must have been said in anger!

Xie Qingyang doesn't have many memories of her mother, after all, she was too young when Qiu Yuan passed away.

So when I heard this, I wasn't angry; I was more shocked.

"...No," Xie Qingyang shook his head vigorously, "I shouldn't have said that, but you're taking it too seriously!"

Jiang Chu silently looked up at the sky, "I have never seen such a shameless person with double standards."

"Shut up!" Xie Qingyang snapped, "You—"

Jiang Chu raised his arm to slap her.

Xie Qingyang swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Jiang Chu didn't continue the fight.

"...It's all for her, isn't it?"

Xie Qingyang stared intently at Jiang Chu, then looked at Xie Jing, "You want to marry her, so you're going to kick me out to make room for her child?"

Xie Jing glanced at her. "You're an American citizen, and we're not even on the same household registration. Do I need to kick you out?"

Xie Qingyang gritted her teeth and said, "Then I am also your eldest daughter, the eldest daughter of the Xie family. The title belongs to me!"

Xie Jing was speechless. "Your DNA test results with your biological father can be retrieved from the study and shown to you now—"

"You think I'd believe such nonsense?!" Xie Qingyang raised his voice. "You've been bewitched by this gold digger! For a woman who slept with you, you'd even disown your own daughter! Xie Jing! You're a beast! Let me tell you, a child born to someone like her will be a filthy bastard—"

"shut up."

Xie Jing's face was extremely gloomy.

He originally intended to have Xie Qingyang thrown out immediately.

"..."

The air in the hall seemed to have been sucked out at that moment.

Xie Jing looked at her for a few seconds, then turned to look at Assistant Wang in the distance. "Everyone must be present in the main conference room on the first floor in five minutes."

Assistant Wang's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately lowered his head: "Yes."

Five minutes later, all the Xie family members who had arrived at the manor, except for Xie Lan's family, gathered in the conference room.

On either side of the large solid wood conference table, a group of men, women, and children all sat upright.

Everyone was even careful when they were breathing.

The news about Xie Lan and her family of three had spread like wildfire throughout the entire manor, and now no one knew what kind of furious rage the head of the family was about to unleash by suddenly summoning everyone together.

Xie Jing sat at the head of the conference table.

Jiang Chu sat down beside him in a very natural and open manner.

Xie Qingyang stood at the end of the conference table, his eyes red-rimmed, staring intently at the two people at the head of the table, his chest heaving violently.

Xie Jing took a brown paper bag from Assistant Wang, pulled out a stack of documents, and threw it directly into the center of the conference table.

Several photocopies slid down the smooth tabletop and into the center of everyone's view.

One of them stopped precisely in front of Xie Qingyang.

"Look carefully."

Xie Jing spoke coldly.

Xie Feng mustered up his courage and peeked inside. It was a collection of photocopies of several old paternity test reports.

The date on the top one is clearly printed as a certain day eighteen years ago.

Above the "Expert Opinion" section, two names were clearly written: Xie Rong and Xie Qingyang.

Xie Rong, Xie Sen's eldest son, and Xie Jing's deceased elder brother.

"This report was done eighteen years ago."

Xie Jing's voice echoed in the spacious conference room, carrying an unquestionable and absolute authority.

"My older brother, Xie Rong, is her biological father."

The meeting room was deathly silent.

Everyone held their breath; you could hear a pin drop.

"Back then, my elder brother and Miss Qiu passed away one after another, and she was too young."

Xie Jing leaned back in his chair, his gaze cold.

"The old man felt sorry for the child and wanted her to have a relatively complete family environment and a father in name, so I stepped in to take her in. Over the years, I have been taking care of her on her behalf."

He looked coldly at Xie Qingyang, who was frozen in place.

"Since you said before that you didn't want a father like me, then I'll make it official here today, in front of the entire Xie family—"

He tapped the table and concluded, word by word.

"Xie Qingyang and I have always only been uncle and nephew. From now on, don't let me hear any more inappropriate terms of address."

The entire conference room fell silent.

The relatives all lowered their eyes, not daring to even breathe, but their hearts were already churning with turmoil.

Actually, no one really knows for sure whether this "young lady" is Xie Jing's biological daughter.

The outside world knew very little about the fact that the chairman of Tianyu Group had an illegitimate daughter.

Although the family knew of this person's existence, no one knew the specifics.

After all, she had been in the United States before college, and she didn't seem like she was being groomed to be an heir.

However, whether within the family or the industry, the position of chairman of Tianyu Group is extremely prestigious.

As long as Xie Qingyang calls him "father" in public and he doesn't deny it, then even if people can't see how much he dotes on this daughter, they will still respect her greatly.

Firstly, even if Xie Jing truly dotes on his daughter, he might not show it.

Secondly, even if he doesn't dote on her much, as long as he doesn't hate her to the extreme, for others, being able to please Xie Qingyang means more opportunities.

As for what exactly happened to this daughter, everyone has their own guesses.

now--

Xie Jing presented the report to everyone, and everyone's minds quickly began to make their own calculations.

Is it true, as the report says, that Xie Qingyang is just a niece?

Or perhaps... the head of the family deliberately fabricated this report to legitimately marry his new wife and kick his own daughter out of the house?

With Xie Jing's immense power, forging such a thing would be incredibly easy.

but.

It doesn't matter which one is the truth.

In the Xie family, if the patriarch says no, then they must take it as no, otherwise they will definitely not have a good ending.

There are too many precedents for this.

Everyone's gaze was involuntarily drawn to the head of the conference table.

Looking at the young woman sitting next to Xie Jing, they realized something profound.

Xie Jing must have valued this new wife extremely highly.

So much so that they went so far as to eliminate any potential threats that might upset her during the year-end family banquet in front of the entire clan, in order to clear her name.

In other words, they absolutely, positively must not offend this new lady in the future.
