1282 Xia Yunlou Reveals Her Secret Again
Xia Cheng’s entire body trembled as if he had thought of something. He abruptly raised his eyes to look at Qiao Xi. She stood in the corner with her head lowered, and the corners of her mouth were curled into a cold smile.
Qiao Xi sensed that someone was looking at her. She slowly raised her eyes, and her gaze was calm without a trace of panic. She smiled lightly at Xia Cheng.
At that instant, Xia Cheng felt his heart stop beating. An indescribable fear and shock swept through his entire body. His ears buzzed, but he was extremely clear-headed. When he saw Qiao Xi’s eyes, he understood everything.
Everything today was Qiao Xi and the Luo family’s plan!
Even Yin Lianxin could not confirm if the person in front of her was her daughter. If even she could not tell when she was Xia Yunlou’s mother, how did the head of the Luo family figure it out? How could he be so sure that the person in front of him was not Xia Yunlou?
Was it because there was an agreement that no matter what the person looked like, the head of the Luo family would deny it?
There was no enmity between the Luo and Xia families, so there was no need for the head of the Luo family to do this. The only possibility was that it was because of Qiao Xi. It was Qiao Xi who begged the Luo family to cooperate with her and set up a trap for them to be exposed.
After Xia Cheng thought it through, his head felt like it was about to explode. His breathing quickened as he gritted his teeth. His eyes burst with strong hatred.
Qiao Xi smiled as she looked at him, her eyes filled with ridicule.
It seemed that the old master was very angry! But so what? No matter how unwilling he was, he could not refute the head of the Luo family because no one would suspect him.
She did not have any evidence, but she could get the Luo family to help her create evidence. Now that everyone knew about the Xia family’s scandal and the seeds of doubt were planted, no one would believe anything the Xia family said.
boxn ov el. c o mXia Cheng’s eyes almost popped out. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He absolutely could not admit to this. However, before he could think of a countermeasure, Xia Yunlou, who was at the side, broke down. “Nonsense! I’m Xia Yunlou! Qiao Xi! Tell them that I’m Xia Yunlou, your biological mother! You know—”
Xia Cheng was shocked. Just as he was about to stop Xia Yunlou, Mr. Luo spoke first, “Madam Xia, at this point, are you still thinking of getting Miss Qiao to help you? When you helped Xia Mengyan slander Miss Qiao just now, did you remember that she’s your daughter? Now that you’re in this situation, you finally remember your daughter, huh?
“Moreover, I remember you said that you wanted to cut off all ties with Miss Qiao. You even helped Miss Xia Mengyan force Miss Qiao to admit her mistake. Madam Xia, apart from pretending to be the daughter of the Xia family, could it be that you’re also pretending to be Miss Qiao’s biological mother?”
Everyone was instantly stunned. It took them a few seconds to understand Mr. Luo’s words.
Xia Yunlou retorted without hesitation, “That’s not true—”
“Madam Xia, don’t be in a rush to explain. I’m just making a reasonable guess. The person who took out the fake is Miss Xia Mengyan, but you forced Miss Qiao to confess to the crime. You also knew what kind of price she’d have to pay if she lost the Luo family’s porcelain sculpture. Not only would her reputation be ruined, but she might even be punished by the law. However, you didn’t care about your daughter at all. Instead, for the sake of your niece, you deliberately pushed all the blame onto Miss Qiao. Hence, I suspect that you…”
Mr. Luo’s voice dragged out. Xia Yunlou’s heart thumped violently as she felt her entire body being surrounded by coldness.
There was no need for Mr. Luo to say the rest. Everyone knew what was going on. “In that case, she’s not the real Xia Yunlou, nor is she Qiao Xi’s mother. Perhaps she’s Xia Mengyan’s biological mother!”
This thought was deeply rooted in everyone’s hearts. In this way, everything made sense. Why was Xia Yunlou unwilling to believe Qiao Xi’s words but believed Xia Mengyan’s nonsense? Why was she blaming Qiao Xi for stealing Xia Mengyan’s limelight? Why was she praising Xia Mengyan for being outstanding but unwilling to give Qiao Xi a trace of warmth?
Everything could be explained if Xia Yunlou was Xia Mengyan’s biological mother! It was not that she did not have motherly love, but her motherly love was given to Xia Mengyan. She did not care about Qiao Xi at all.
Xia Yunlou insisted on saying that she was Qiao Xi’s biological mother probably because Qiao Xi’s adoptive mother, Xia Yunqiu, had left behind a large inheritance. As long as she controlled Qiao Xi, she might be able to obtain benefits from Qiao Xi.
Even if Qiao Xi did not have any evidence, the Xia family was unable to change everyone’s thoughts.
Xia Cheng’s expression was as dark as ink. He originally had a way out, but Xia Yunlou had exposed her weakness again. No matter how he explained, no one would believe him.
