Chapter 1178: Cannot Let Xin'ai Suffer Grievances in Vain
Just as Xu Xiaoxiao was about to say the answer, Liu Xin'ai suddenly gripped Xu Xiaoxiao's hand.
And signaled to her that Xiao'an was not far away.
Sigh, Xu Xiaoxiao had actually forgotten about that little tail.
Helplessly, Xu Xiaoxiao could only swallow the answer that had reached her lips.
But from the expression on her face, one could tell just how furious she was!
Liu Xin'ai, however, had calmed down.
She even comforted Xu Xiaoxiao: "It's all fake anyway; justice resides in people's hearts."
"But this is slander! We should drag the person out and send them a lawyer's letter! Put a stop to this crooked trend!"
"But didn't you just say it yourself? My friends trust me, and that is enough. What others think has nothing to do with me."
Liu Xin'ai wore an open-minded expression.
She hoped Xu Xiaoxiao could also let go of her anger.
But Xu Xiaoxiao could not do it.
She felt deeply sorry for Liu Xin'ai, and she knew her open-mindedness was just a helpless compromise!
Yet, in order not to make her good friend worry, Xu Xiaoxiao could only temporarily suppress her temper.
Then, in a calm voice, she asked: "Is everything arranged?"
Liu Xin'ai knew what Xu Xiaoxiao was referring to, so she gave a soft "Mm."
Thinking that her good friend was about to escape the fiery pit, Xu Xiaoxiao felt happy for her.
But...
She was also extremely reluctant to part.
Xu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but grip Liu Xin'ai's hand back, murmuring: "You tell me, how long have I even been here, and you're already... sigh!"
"Everything is temporary; after all, my family is here."
"And your best friend!"
Liu Xin'ai curled the corners of her lips and agreed: "That's true."
Xu Xiaoxiao cherished the time spent with her sister, so she proposed:
"How about this weekend, we go see a movie or go shopping?"
The weekend...
Liu Xin'ai said with much regret: "There's an event at home."
"Cancel it! Anyway, you aren't happy in places where Qin Yiyan is."
If it were only Qin Yiyan, Liu Xin'ai naturally wouldn't attend.
But on the weekend, his parents would be coming.
The fact that Liu Xin'ai and Qin Yiyan were getting a divorce had not yet been made public, after all.
She also hadn't escaped Qin Yiyan's control.
So she still had to play the role of a daughter-in-law well.
Thinking of this, Liu Xin'ai explained: "Qin Yiyan's parents are coming to the house for a barbecue this weekend. By the way, why don't you come too? Qin Yiyan's parents are actually quite easy to get along with."
Qin Yiyan's parents...
Xu Xiaoxiao hurriedly refused: "I have something to do this weekend."
"Mm, alright then."
After Liu Xin'ai finished speaking, she didn't give the matter another thought.
But Xu Xiaoxiao...
Felt a sense of urgency.
Xu Xiaoxiao's identity would sooner or later be exposed in front of Chi Rong.
Before that exposure, she had to quickly find the secret hidden within the Qin Family and Chi Rong.
Xu Xiaoxiao had a premonition that this secret...
Could help Liu Xin'ai resolve the troubles in her marriage more smoothly!
On the weekend, the weather was nice.
The housekeeper had long since had people set up the barbecue grill in the garden.
On the small table nearby, a beautifully patterned tablecloth was spread, with delicious food and drinks placed on top.
Once the charcoal fire was lit, the Qin Family members began to get busy.
This family gathered together, appearing harmonious on the surface.
But in reality?
Each harbored their own hidden agenda!
Liu Xin'ai couldn't help but frown, thinking to herself that the smell of the barbecue...
Why was it so unpleasant?
She used to quite like eating barbecue.
Today, however, she only felt the smoke and fire were unbearable!
Could it be that the recent stress was so high that her tastes had changed?
Liu Xin'ai pondered secretly.
Meanwhile, Chi Rong stood beside Qin Yiyan, pretending to look at the flowers in the Flower Room.
Then she asked in a low voice: "Have you still not found out who posted that thread to ruin Xin'ai's reputation?"
Chi Rong already knew about this matter, which was why she specifically came over today.
Firstly, it was to see how Liu Xin'ai was doing, and secondly, it was to ask about the progress of the investigation.
Liu Xin'ai's state...
Chi Rong glanced over there and discovered Liu Xin'ai's frowning expression.
This was clearly...
In a bad mood!
As for the reason for the bad mood, it was very likely because of those groundless news reports!
This made Chi Rong very anxious.
She hoped her son could bring good news!
Unfortunately, Qin Yiyan's words disappointed Chi Rong: "The poster is overseas, the virtual address... is not easy to track down."
"Then you must still find this person; we cannot let Xin'ai suffer this grievance in vain!"
"Rest assured, they will definitely be found!"
A cold aura emanated from Qin Yiyan's entire body.
He would certainly not let off anyone who dared to touch his person!
Just at this moment...
Behind Qin Yiyan, a coquettish "Oh my" was heard.
He and his mother turned to look.
They saw Bai Yufei holding a bouquet of flowers.
Her finger seemed to have been pricked by a branch, and there were red beads of blood on it.
Chi Rong hurried over and asked, "How did you get hurt?"
"These flowers have thorns; I got pricked," Bai Yufei said with an innocent look on her face.
But Chi Rong frowned slightly and asked, "Why did you pick the flowers?"
"
"I picked them for you to enjoy!"
"I can see them just as well in the Flower Room."
"But from that far away, I can't see them clearly. It's better to hold them in my arms to better appreciate their beauty!"
As Bai Yufei spoke, she even brought the bouquet up to Chi Rong.
Chi Rong, however, still frowned and disapproved, saying: "The flowers in this Flower Room were prepared by your brother for your sister-in-law. Picking them without even asking is too... willful."
Chi Rong's words caused Bai Yufei's expression to gradually turn cold.
She knew that her mother still did not trust her.
Therefore, after Chi Rong appeared, Bai Yufei had been behaving well.
She had even personally gone to pick the flowers she liked!
The result?
Her mother offered no praise, only accusations!
This made Bai Yufei pout her red lips, feeling aggrieved.
Qin Chao came over to smooth things over: "At least it's a gift from the child, you should just accept it."
Chi Rong saw her daughter's grievance.
Her heart softened, and she had to say: "Next time, don't pick them again."
"Mm."
Bai Yufei replied casually.
But in her heart, she was thinking that she indeed would not pick them again.
Because next time...
She would find someone to come and tear this Flower Room down entirely!
Bai Yufei secretly seethed with malice.
Meanwhile, Chi Rong turned her head to look at Qin Yiyan and urged him: "You must also hurry and find the person who posted anonymously as soon as possible, so we can give Xin'ai an explanation."
"Yes."
Hearing this, Bai Yufei stopped seething.
Her eyes darted, and she said: "Mom, what you just said...
What anonymous post?"
Chi Rong wore a look of worry and muttered: "You should also know that someone is posting anonymously online to smear your sister-in-law's reputation. This kind of person must be rooted out!"
"But... isn't that like looking for a needle in a haystack? It's a waste of time and money; why not... just let it go."
"This matter cannot be let go, and even more so, your sister-in-law cannot be bullied in vain like this!"
"But in this life, who doesn't encounter some unpleasant things? Be a little more magnanimous and it will pass; don't be so narrow-minded."
After Bai Yufei finished speaking, she noticed Chi Rong looking at her.
That gaze...
Made Bai Yufei feel very guilty!
