Xiao Qiusheng didn't even look at the person and drove away.

Yao Feiran said quietly, "This woman likes you."

Xiao Qiusheng said helplessly, "I don't even know her. Feiran, we finally have some time alone together today, so let's not be angry."

"Alright." Yao Feiran's lips curled slightly. At this moment, Xiao Qiusheng suddenly spoke up: "Can you come back to the Xiao family with me tomorrow?"

"Is this a way of putting an end to things?"

"Yes." Xiao Qiusheng thought that the Xiao family would never feel as lost as before, and his expression didn't even change: "What we owe them will eventually be repaid, and then we won't be in debt or owe anything."

In his earlier years, Xiao Qiusheng did not dare to resist the Xiao family. Now that the Xiao family wants to shake him, it will probably end in a lose-lose situation. Ever since he became a new elite in the capital, Old Master Xiao has been calling him to return to his hometown. Even Xiao's father took the initiative to call him, but Xiao Qiusheng has been evasive all of them.

The next day, Yao Feiran followed Xiao Qiusheng to the Xiao family's old residence.

This is a manor located halfway up a mountain. Although the surrounding area is open, it is situated in the city center where land is extremely valuable.

When Xiao Qiusheng entered, the butler had already informed Old Master Xiao, but upon seeing Yao Feiran's expression, he was clearly somewhat surprised.

Yao Feiran had seen all sorts of situations. She followed Xiao Qiusheng into the old house, where everyone stared at Xiao Qiusheng and then turned their attention to Yao Feiran.

Grandpa Xiao frowned slightly. He had already investigated Yao Feiran's background. She came from an ordinary family and, although she got into a good school, she didn't do anything after graduation.

Yao Feiran even saw Yang Jiao there. Well, in the original plot, although Yang Jiao's background was ordinary, her grandfather and Old Master Xiao were old acquaintances, so Yang Jiao was able to have two relationships at the same time.

From Yang Jiao's perspective, it's like a Cinderella forced into a marriage with a domineering CEO, but she loves Xiao Chenxiu and betrays the taciturn Xiao Qiusheng. Only after being reborn does she realize that Xiao Qiusheng is her true love and wants to redeem him.

"Yang Jiao is my friend's granddaughter. You and she were betrothed when you were little."

Xiao Qiusheng said calmly, "I already have a wife, and don't you have a grandson, Xiao Chenxiu? To the outside world, you'll say he's your only biological son. The two of you are a perfect match."

Xiao Chenxiu's brows furrowed with anger. Yang Jiao was just an ordinary girl who could offer her no benefit, so she had no intention of marrying her.

Yang Jiao looked at Xiao Chenxiu with a hint of hatred in her eyes. Back then, Xiao Chenxiu also looked down on her. Later, when he saw Xiao Qiusheng becoming more and more outstanding, he deliberately approached her. At that time, she was blinded by this scumbag and had no idea that he just wanted to use her to deal with Xiao Qiusheng.

This hurt Xiao Qiusheng, who was good to her.

Old Master Xiao slammed his hand on the table: "Nonsense! Since you're a member of the Xiao family, you should think about the Xiao family's well-being. Anyway, no one else knows. You two should find a time to get a divorce."

Yao Feiran thought to herself how arrogant these people were, directly asking someone to get a divorce.

Xiao Qiusheng said calmly, "Impossible. I will make my own decisions about my marriage. Besides, I don't want to be a member of the Xiao family." Xiao Qiusheng took out a check: "This is ten times the amount the Xiao family spent on me after I was recognized. I'm here today to tell everyone that I am no longer a member of the Xiao family."

Mr. Xiao said unhappily, "Just because of this little thing, you want to sever ties with your family? I already said that I was afraid it would cause stock price fluctuations, so I could only let you be adopted and brought back."

Xiao Qiusheng sneered, "Whether they are biological children or adopted children, I don't care. They are all hypocritical and sanctimonious."

Xiao's mother said incredulously, "How can you say that? After all these years away, you're still an ungrateful wretch."

"That's enough!"

Grandpa Xiao interrupted them, his expression softening slightly: "Let's have a meal first. Qiusheng, you've been working away from home all this time. You finally have some free time. We're all family, what conflicts can't be resolved?"

Mr. Xiao knew that this son could no longer be easily manipulated, so he gestured to Mrs. Xiao with his eyes to speak properly.

After dinner, seeing that Xiao Qiusheng was still talking about the checks, Old Master Xiao said, "Qiusheng, come with this old man to the study for a chat."

Xiao Qiusheng remained indifferent, but still followed Old Master Xiao to the study.

Yao Feiran stayed alone in the living room, calmly eating her after-dinner fruit. Meanwhile, Xiao's mother scrutinized Yao Feiran from head to toe: "What kind of work do you do now?"

"I don't have a job, but Xiao Qiusheng supports me anyway."

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Xiao's mother's eyes: "She's nothing but a parasitic plant. She probably only tried to cling to Qiu Sheng because she saw he was rich. At least Jiao Jiao has her own career."

Actually, Yang Jiao wasn't exactly satisfactory to Xiao's mother either, but she was much better than Yao Feiran.

"Mrs. Xiao, you seem to be in a similar situation. At least I have a degree from a top university in China. Besides spending money, your academic qualifications don't seem to be that great. I wonder if you and Mr. Xiao have anything in common?"

"What do you mean!?"

"It's meaningless. A woman who doesn't even love her own son isn't worth my saying anything."

"You bitch!"

Enraged, Xiao's mother reached out to slap Yao Feiran.

Yao Feiran grabbed her wrist and pressed down hard.

A scream rang out, and Xiao's mother's wrist turned purplish-blue.

"What kind of trash are you? You think you're worthy to hit me? You can't even tell right from wrong."

Everyone was stunned by this turn of events for a long time. Yang Jiao knew how difficult Madam Xiao was to deal with, but Yao Feiran actually had such a tough attitude.

After taking a deep breath for a while, Xiao's father said, "How much money do you want to leave Qiu Sheng?"

Here she comes, I'm going to try and bribe her.

Yao Feiran chuckled: "President Xiao should know Qiusheng's current net worth, right? But do you know that we didn't sign a prenuptial agreement? Apart from the group's stock, all of Qiusheng's other shares and assets have been transferred to my name."

"As for that check, it's the retirement money I owe you over the years. Although you didn't contribute anything, you did contribute an embryo. You want to get rid of me? Can you afford this money?"

Now, everyone fell silent.

No one expected Xiao Qiusheng to trust Yao Feiran so much, making his attempt to bribe her seem even more ridiculous.

Mr. Xiao was also trembling with anger. His family made their fortune in real estate, but now that the real estate market is sluggish, their long-term high leverage has led to numerous crises. Meanwhile, Qiu Sheng's company has reached the world's most advanced level in terms of cutting-edge technology, possessing unlimited potential and value.

With Xiao Qiusheng's investment, all the problems will be solved.

He couldn't help but regret not valuing this son more in the past, but now it was too late to make amends.

At this moment, the study door opened, and Xiao Qiusheng came out, his expression unreadable. Then, Old Master Xiao also came out, but his face showed signs of dejection.
