"Let's go, Fei Ran."

Xiao Qiusheng's gaze swept over everyone and landed on Yao Feiran, at which point a gentle look appeared in his eyes.

Yao Feiran followed him away.

Xiao's mother shouted, "Stop right there! Don't come back once you leave this door!"

"I couldn't have gotten it."

Xiao Qiusheng led Yao Feiran away from the old house.

Old Master Xiao said coldly to Xiao's mother, "Huiting, you have a terrible temper. Qiusheng originally wanted to settle things with the Xiao family this time. You said you insisted on adopting Chenxiu as your son to take care of his feelings. Do you still think he's the child you used to manipulate?"

"Old man, this child has always been ill-tempered and has been dissatisfied with us. I was just giving him a warning. I haven't mistreated him over the years."

Mrs. Xiao felt somewhat resentful after the old man said that, but she didn't dare to disobey him.

"You didn't mistreat him? He was born into the Xiao family, and his birth destined him to a life of wealth and privilege. It's not your place to mistreat him."

Old Master Xiao scrutinized Xiao Chenxiu, not missing the smug look that flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Chenxiu probably thought that with Xiao Qiusheng gone, the Xiao family would be his for the taking. But he didn't realize that they would never choose someone with no blood relation to inherit the Xiao family.

Old Master Xiao had long known that his son had many illegitimate children abroad, and several of them had already been working at the branch company for several years after graduating.

Xiao's mother lowered her head and dared not speak. She had never liked this son. He had been stubborn to the death for so many years and was unwilling to bow his head to his elders.

I only heard from the old man that this son has become a new elite in the capital. How could he be that powerful? It's probably an exaggeration.

Yang Jiao was filled with disappointment. She didn't even have a chance to atone for her sins in this life. She wondered who that woman was, who had gotten there first. Was she also a reborn person like her, who knew about Qiu Sheng's future achievements and that was why she approached him?

She thought to herself, "No! I need to confirm this. I can't let Qiu Sheng be deceived by this kind of woman."

At this moment, the old man said, "Jiaojiao, your grandfather has been kind to me. I wonder if you would consider Chen Xiu?"

At this moment, Xiao Chenxiu and Yang Jiao spoke at the same time.

"Thank you, Grandpa Xiao. Jiaojiao is just here to see you. As for the marriage agreement, let's not force anyone."

"Grandpa, I don't want to get married right now."

Xiao Chenxiu's face darkened. Although he had refused, why did this woman also refuse? Moreover, when his grandfather said he would match her with Xiao Qiusheng, this woman had tacitly agreed.

"Okay, Jiaojiao, come keep me company when you have time."

"Yes, Grandpa Xiao."

.......

Xiao Qiusheng seemed to have let go of some of his obsessions from his youth. He had gradually let go of them and now calmly regarded these relationships as burdens.

Just a few days later, Yang Jiao actually met with her alone.

Yao Feiran now runs a dessert shop near Xiao Qiusheng's workplace. When she has to go on business trips, the shop hires someone to look after the shop. She happens to be free these days.

Yang Jiao, however, came looking for her.

"Can I talk to you alone?"

"it is good."

Yao Feiran led Yang Jiao into the private room.

"Miss Yang, what brings you here?"

"How long have you been with Qiu Sheng?"

Yao Feiran said calmly, "We've known each other for over ten years, and we've been together for several years now."

Yang Jiao's eyes stung, and she lowered her head, looking disappointed. This woman had actually been with Qiu Sheng for so long.

"He's lonely inside and hopes you're not with him for his money."

"Miss Yang, you've overstepped your bounds. You and Qiu Sheng are complete strangers. Don't you find it ridiculous to say such things?"

No, she is the person in this world who knows him best.

Yang Jiao was about to say this, but she didn't know how to start.

"I also want to say to Miss Yang, Qiusheng and I are a legally married couple. No matter what feelings you have for him, don't appear in front of us again," Yao Feiran mocked. "Does Miss Yang want to be a mistress?"

Seeing her mocking gaze, Yang Jiao couldn't help but feel a surge of anger: "You're only after Qiu Sheng's future. If he didn't have money, would you have stayed with him for so many years?"

Yang Jiao didn't believe that this woman who appeared out of nowhere was a coincidence.

Yao Feiran was speechless and said, "If Qiusheng were a beggar or an ordinary person in the future, would you come here and say such nonsense? If you want to be a mistress, go after Qiusheng, don't whine in front of me."

"you--"

Yang Jiao's face turned red with anger.

At that moment, the door was pushed open, and Xiao Qiusheng saw the scene. He stood guard in front of Yao Feiran and said, "Please, Miss Yang, don't bother us anymore. I have nothing to do with the Xiao family anymore."

When Yang Jiao saw the look of disgust in Xiao Qiusheng's eyes, she couldn't help but recall the same look he had given her when she was sent to prison in her previous life.

She staggered a few steps and finally stumbled away.

They've all become obsessed.

Xiao Qiusheng said in a low voice, "I have no connection with her, and I don't know why I came to find you."

"I know."

Yao Feiran noticed a thin layer of sweat on his forehead and looked suspicious: "You didn't send someone to watch me, did you? How did you get here so quickly?"

"I didn't." Xiao Qiusheng shook his head frantically. "How could I dare to send someone to watch you? I... I'm upstairs, I can see this place. Sometimes when I'm bored, I think of you and look at you. I just happened to see Yang Jiao coming over."

Yao Feiran thought to herself that this guy was quite clingy, actually using observing her as a way to rest, and from such a distance, she strongly suspected that he was using binoculars.

If she weren't his wife, what difference would there be between him and a pervert? No wonder the Destiny Pearl said that he looked at her like he wanted to devour her; it seems he knew she was a yandere deep down.

"Alright, let's go eat together."

After this incident, Yang Jiao never came back. She was originally a girl from an ordinary family, and in the end, she married a man of equal social standing. Occasionally, when she was busy making a living, she would think of the glamorous life of Mrs. Xiao in her previous life. No one protected her like Xiao Qiusheng did, as if it were all a dream.

A few days later, Xiao Qiusheng drove Yao Feiran to other places for sightseeing, and Yao Feiran felt a flutter in her heart.

The Fate-Defying Pearl spoke up: "There's danger!"

Yao Feiran clutched her stomach and cried out, "Qiusheng, my stomach suddenly hurts so much! Can we go back?"

"Where do you feel unwell? I'll take you to the hospital to get it checked out!"

Xiao Qiusheng quickly slammed on the brakes. Fortunately, this was not a highway. Just as he stopped, he reached an intersection. A truck traveling in the wrong direction sped by, narrowly missing Xiao Qiusheng's car before violently crashing through the roadside fence and traveling over a hundred meters beyond it.

If Xiao Qiusheng hadn't stopped, the car could have easily run him over.

Xiao Qiusheng had also anticipated this consequence, and still shaken, he held Yao Feiran tightly.

"Let's go to the hospital."

Actually, Yao Feiran was faking it just now, but now she has no choice but to go to the hospital. After a while, the traffic police arrived.

The driver, covered in blood, looked completely bewildered.

"I don't know what happened, I just suddenly crashed into it."
