Chapter 403

~7 min read 1,375 words

As soon as Old Mrs. Xiao said this, the expressions of everyone present changed!

The first to change face was Ma Lan!

She instantly understood the old lady's intention!

You old immortal! You really are an old fox! Giving the furniture was fake; wanting to move into our big villa was the truth!

I finally managed to get rid of you and the Xiao family, and I was even living better than the Xiao family, able to crush them.

And now you suddenly want to shamelessly move into our big villa?

You don't even go pee and look at yourself; do you deserve it?!

Xiao Changkun wasn't a fool either. He was indeed moved by the old lady's generosity a second ago, but this second, he immediately saw through the old lady's intention.

He knew that if he let the old lady move into their new villa, it would simply be inviting a wolf into the house, and the whole family would have no peace, so he couldn't agree no matter what.

Ye Chen was also a bit worried. If this old woman really moved in, life would simply be turned upside down!

Not only was Ye Chen's family shocked, but Xiao Hailong and Xiao Weiwei on the side were even more shocked!

Not only shocked, but they were also very angry!

The old lady's meaning was too obvious; she was going to directly suck up to Xiao Changkun's family and then move in with them.

If that happened, what would their family of three do?!

Mom had run away with 15 million, Dad was almost penniless now, and the two siblings had no savings at all.

Their only reliance was the batch of antiques hidden in the old lady's hands. If she defected to Xiao Changkun's family at this time, wouldn't their family be finished?!

Once the bank repossessed the villa, their family would probably be sleeping on the street!

Just when they were incredibly nervous, Ma Lan spoke first. She looked at Old Mrs. Xiao with contempt and said coldly, "Oh, your wishful thinking is really good. You drove us out first, and now that you see us living in a big villa, you want to use a set of broken furniture to exchange for a room? Do you know how much my villa costs? 130 million! Including the renovation, it might even be 150 million. A bedroom is worth at least tens of millions. How much is your set of furniture worth?"

Old Mrs. Xiao only wanted to move into this villa now, so facing Ma Lan's mockery, she said innocently, "Good daughter-in-law, this set of furniture is a little token of Mom's for your housewarming. How can intentions be measured by money?"

Ma Lan immediately said, "Don't give me that. Let's measure it with money. Isn't it just 1.2 million? We'd rather give it to you than let you move in. If you move in, will our family have any peaceful days?"

Xiao Changkun also suddenly realized.

Yes, if Old Mrs. Xiao also moved in, his life would be no different from hell.

So, he immediately said to Old Mrs. Xiao, "Mom, forget about the gift. Give me a card number, and I'll transfer the money!"

Seeing that Xiao Changkun wasn't falling for it, Old Mrs. Xiao immediately pulled a long face and asked coldly, "What? Are you insisting on breaking ties with me as your mother?"

Xiao Changkun hurriedly said, "Mom, I didn't say anything about breaking ties; you did. But in my eyes, you will always be my mother."

"Where is there still a mother like me in your eyes?" Old Mrs. Xiao said angrily, "With such a big villa, you aren't even willing to leave a room for me. You'd rather see me starve or freeze to death outside than support me! Your conscience has been eaten by dogs!"

Before Xiao Changkun could speak, Ma Lan on the side blurted out, "Don't give me that useless talk. Selling the sofa is selling the sofa; why are you blaming us? Let me tell you, you were the one who severed ties and drove us out back then. Now you regret it, but we don't. Since leaving the Xiao family, we don't know how happy we've been. Even if you beg us to restore the relationship now, we won't agree."

Xiao Changkun also nodded repeatedly.

He knew what it felt like to have a shrew in the house; it was simply chaotic.

If there were two shrews in the house, then forget about having a home.

So he hardened his heart and said, "Mom, give me a card number, and I'll transfer the money to you, or you can just let these movers take the furniture away."

Old Mrs. Xiao was furious, pointing at Xiao Changkun and wanting to come up and slap him. Fortunately, Xiao Changkun reacted quickly, stepping back two steps and making the old lady miss.

She was trembling with anger at Xiao Changkun's attitude. What was even more depressing was that she didn't have the chance to enjoy such a luxurious and extravagant villa, which made every pore on her body feel as uncomfortable as being pricked by needles.

However, there was no other way at the moment.

She could only glare at Xiao Changkun and grit her teeth, "Fine! You really are my good son! From now on, we will completely sever all ties! Even if I die, don't you come!"

Ma Lan replied, "That's just right, saves us the trouble."

"You..."

Old Mrs. Xiao coughed violently a few times, took out a bank card, and shouted at Xiao Changkun, "Transfer the money! You have to give me 1.21 million!"

Ma Lan frowned and asked, "Why should I give you 1.21 million? Wasn't it agreed to be 1.2 million?"

The old lady said angrily, "Don't I have to pay for hiring the truck and the people?"

Ma Lan said coldly, "What does your hiring people and trucks have to do with me? Why don't you say you need money for the paper you use to wipe your butt in the morning? Do you want me to reimburse you for that too?"

Old Mrs. Xiao gritted her teeth and cursed, "You shrew, I'll tear that broken mouth of yours!"

As she spoke, the old lady reached out to grab Ma Lan.

Ma Lan wasn't Xiao Changkun; she wasn't polite at all, directly swinging her hand to knock the old lady's hand away forcefully, saying coldly, "What? You want to use your hands? You're right, I am a shrew, but you're no good bird either! You old shrew, trying to use your hands on me in my house, do you believe I'll slap your big mouth?"

Having been bullied and looked down upon by the old lady for so many years, Ma Lan had long wanted to take this revenge. She never had a chance before, but today was truly a god-given opportunity.

Old Mrs. Xiao didn't expect Ma Lan to not be afraid of her at all. Although she was angry, she really had no way to deal with her.

At this time, Xiao Changkun operated his phone and then said to the old lady, "Mom, 1.21 million has been transferred to you. Check it, and if there's no problem, please go back."

Ma Lan blurted out, "Are you burning money? Give me that ten thousand, and I can get a few more Spas. Why give it to her? Isn't this feeding a dog?"

Xiao Changkun waved his hand, "Alright, say less!"

Old Mrs. Xiao received a text message notification on her phone at this time. She took it out and saw that 1.21 million had indeed arrived in the account. She glared at Ma Lan and said coldly, "Ma, you wait for me. Sooner or later, I'll tear that mouth of yours!"

After finishing, she said to Xiao Hailong and Xiao Weiwei, "Let's go!"

Xiao Hailong and Xiao Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really afraid that their second uncle, Xiao Changkun, wouldn't be firm enough. If he had really agreed to let the old lady move in, their family of three would be finished.

Fortunately, they didn't let the old lady succeed!
