Chapter 320

Old Mrs. Xiao didn't expect that the usually cowardly Xiao Changkun would actually have a temper in front of her!

She couldn't help but feel angry and hateful!

For decades, she had always used her authority to suppress Xiao Changkun, and Xiao Changkun had never had the ability to resist, or even the ability to refute.

Even when she kicked him out of the Xiao family, he didn't dare to make a peep.

But she didn't expect that he would dare to say such things to her today!

Has he really grown wings?!

To actually dare to say such rebellious things as not wanting a mother like her!

He has really gone too far!

Just as she was furious and wanted to lash out on the spot to maintain her dignity and authority.

Xiao Changgan, who was on the side, had already lowered his status and said to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, we aren't here to cause trouble today. I have something to ask your mother-in-law Ma Lan, so hurry up and let her come out. I have a matter of extreme urgency to ask her!"

Ye Chen naturally knew very well that Xiao Changgan must be here looking for Qian Hongyan.

Unfortunately, Xiao Changgan could never dream that Qian Hongyan and that group led by He Lian had already been secretly sent to Jinxi, so to him, Qian Hongyan must have evaporated into thin air.

So, Ye Chen said to Xiao Changgan, "You can tell me whatever it is, and I'll pass it on to her."

Xiao Changgan hurriedly said, "My wife is missing!"

Ye Chen asked with feigned surprise, "Wife is missing? How did she go missing?"

Xiao Changgan was very unhappy with Ye Chen's prying, but he still suppressed his temper and said, "I just can't find her, I can't get in touch with her no matter what. Before she lost contact, she last saw your mother-in-law, so I came over to ask."

Ye Chen laughed, "Actually, you don't need to ask to figure this out."

Xiao Changgan blurted out, "What do you mean?"

Ye Chen said, "My meaning is very simple, I just think your wife must have run away."

As he spoke, Ye Chen counted on his fingers, "Look at you all now, no money, no power, no noble people to help you. Looking at it this way, the Xiao family will soon go bankrupt and be liquidated, and your villa will have to be taken by the bank, right? Auntie Qian has never suffered in her life, she can't possibly live in low-rent housing with you all when the time comes, right?"

Xiao Changgan gritted his teeth and said, "This has nothing to do with you, you'd better keep your mouth shut!"

Ye Chen's father-in-law Xiao Changkun walked over again at this time and said seriously, "Brother, I think what Ye Chen said makes a lot of sense. The Xiao family is a bottomless pit now. If I were my sister-in-law, I wouldn't live with you either. Not only would I not live with you, I would take all your money and go out to start a new life!"

"You..." Xiao Changgan didn't expect Xiao Changkun to hit the exact spot he was most afraid of, and immediately cursed in a rage, "Xiao Changkun, don't you dare speculate about my wife here! If it weren't for the fact that you are my brother, I would have already taken action to teach you a lesson!"

As soon as Xiao Changgan finished speaking, Ye Chen slapped him directly in the face, making him see stars.

Before he could recover, Ye Chen said coldly, "Xiao Changgan, you dare to be so presumptuous at my door, have you forgotten the fate of your son and the Xiao family's group of lackeys?"

Xiao Changgan was slapped and instantly became obedient.

He knew that it didn't matter that he had nothing now.

Even if he were still the Xiao Changgan from before, he would be no match for Ye Chen.

This guy didn't know where he learned his martial arts; the Xiao family's bodyguards were all beaten to a pulp by him, let alone himself?

Thinking of this, Xiao Changgan suppressed his inner anger and said to Xiao Changkun, "Changkun, that was my fault just now, I apologize to you. However, I still trouble you to call your sister-in-law out, I want to ask her about something."

Xiao Changkun felt extremely satisfied at this moment, wishing he could hug his precious son-in-law Ye Chen and kiss him.

He really avenged him!

He was just feeling miserable from Xiao Changgan's anger, and he slapped him right across the face, how great!

Xiao Changkun felt wonderful inside, and said to Xiao Changgan, "Brother, let me ask you, you and my sister-in-law were planning to buy a villa a couple of days ago, right?"

Xiao Changgan asked subconsciously, "How did you know?"

Xiao Changkun blurted out, "Ma Lan told me. She was playing mahjong at her friend's house and happened to see you and my sister-in-law go to her friend's house to look at property, so she told me."

Xiao Changgan nodded and said, "We did look, but what does that have to do with today's matter?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Mrs. Xiao on the side asked with a furrowed brow, "Changgan, what's going on? You want to buy a villa? Why didn't I know?"

Xiao Changgan felt a sense of despair.

He was anxious, his brain wasn't working well enough, and he had completely forgotten that buying a villa was something he did behind Old Mrs. Xiao's back.

Seeing Old Mrs. Xiao's face full of anger, he could only explain patiently, "Mom, Hongyan and I were afraid that you wouldn't have a place to live after the villa was seized, so we wanted to see in advance if there was a suitable replacement..."

"You're full of crap!" Old Mrs. Xiao cursed angrily, "You weren't willing to take out this money to save me, which is why my villa was taken back! It's one thing that you didn't help me, but you actually went to look at villas behind my back?!"

Xiao Changgan's expression was extremely awkward; it seemed this matter couldn't be smoothed over...

Old Mrs. Xiao was furious, stood on her tiptoes, slapped him, and cursed angrily, "You blind dog! You don't trust your own mother, but trust an outsider! Now it's great! Fifteen million has all gone down the drain! You are forcing us all into a dead end!"

When Xiao Changkun heard that his brother Xiao Changgan actually had fifteen million, he felt very sour inside.

He had followed the Xiao family for so many years, and only had a little over a million; later, he dabbled in antiques and earned a little more, and his daughter gave him some, so the family barely had over two million.

He didn't expect that Xiao Changgan actually had fifteen million himself!

Thinking of this, he said sourly, "No wonder, Brother! You must have put the fifteen million with my sister-in-law, right?"

Xiao Changgan said with an angry expression, "That has nothing to do with you!"

Xiao Changkun sighed and said, "Brother, you gave my sister-in-law so much money, even if she didn't want to cheat, those young men who dream every day of being saved by a rich older woman wouldn't let her go!"

Xiao Changgan frowned tightly and questioned, "What do you mean by that?"

Xiao Changkun looked at him and said with great surprise, "Don't you use your phone to go online? There are many such cases online! Some young men specialize in seducing rich older women like my sister-in-law. When the time is right, they say to the older woman, 'Auntie, I don't want to work hard anymore,' and the rich older woman immediately gives them money, cars, and houses, keeps them as gigolos, and might even elope with them!"

Speaking of this, Xiao Changkun said regretfully, "Fifteen million! I don't know how many young men are chasing after my sister-in-law to please her; I'm afraid she can't even choose them all!"
