Chapter 1748 - 1748 Unstoppable
Xiao Xiaobai was in despair. She now had to pay a huge price for a moment of anger!
Lin Xiruo couldn’t be bothered to look at her. She said to Davis, “Mr. Davis, please stay and cooperate with the police.”
Naturally, Davis did not want to be charged with sexual harassment or even rape. Even if they called the police, he could clear his name with Xu Zhiqin’s evidence. Naturally, he agreed immediately.
Bai Jinhua, Bai Ling, and the others all begged for mercy for Xiao Xiaobai, but soon, the police arrived and took them away to cooperate with the investigation.
Xiao Xiaobai’s body almost went limp, but she was still mercilessly taken away.
As for Xu Zhiqin, He Jiang had communicated with the police for a while, so he could naturally make an exception.
“Yuxin!” Lin Xiruo turned to Wei Yuxin.
When Wei Yuxin heard this, her body involuntarily trembled. She tried her best to squeeze out a smile, but this smile was not much better than her crying face.
“Aunt.” Wei Yuxin bit her lip.
Lin Xiruo smiled and said, “I really can’t accept you calling me ‘Aunt’.”
Wei Yuxin was even more terrified. She called out again, “Aunt.”
Her voice became softer and weaker.
“You call me ‘Aunt’, but you instigated your cousin to deal with my future daughter-in-law. You’ve made me very terrified, making me wonder if I’ve done anything to let you down all these years,” Lin Xiruo asked gently.
“N-No.” Wei Yuxin gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.
The only thing she was sorry about was that Lin Xiruo was on Xu Zhiqin’s side and did not choose to help her.
There might even be a lot of talk about how Wei Yuxin had joined forces with her mother, aunt, and cousin to push Bai Ling to He Jiang.
Wei Yuxin was only in her teens at that time, but she already had such thoughts. It was really terrifying.
Others also knew what the Wei and Bai families had done previously and could not help but deeply admire Lin Xiruo.
Unexpectedly, after Lin Xiruo recovered from her illness, her top-notch aura returned and she wasn’t at a disadvantage at all.
Moreover, when it came to settling old scores, she was polite and calm. She was soft but tough. It was unbearable!
Everyone even suspected that Xu Zhiqin had deliberately fallen for Xiao Xiaobai’s trick just now to seek revenge for Lin Xiruo!
When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law joined forces, they were simply unstoppable. Their combat power was explosive.
Many people were so frightened that they trembled. They were glad that they hadn’t taken advantage of Lin Xiruo’s illness to step on her back then. Now, looking at her imposing manner, not only did she have the powerful Lin family of S Country backing her up, but she also had He Jiang and He Xuyan protecting her from both sides. And there was Xu Zhiqin, whose combat strength wasn’t weak either. It would be a futile attempt no matter who tried to go against Lin Xiruo.
“Since I didn’t do anything to let you down, how could you harm my daughter-in-law like this?” Lin Xiruo said with a sigh. “If something had really happened to Zhiqin, not only would her reputation be damaged but Xuyan’s reputation too. The entire He Consortium would be criticized!”
Wei Yuxin’s body trembled even more.
Lin Xiruo’s words were simply heartbreaking!
As He Xuyan’s fiancée, if something really happened to Xu Zhiqin, it might cause He Consortium’s reputation to be damaged and the company’s share price to fall!
No one could afford this.
Most of the guests tonight had to rely on their cooperation with He Consortium to make a living!
Who would want to see something go wrong with He Consortium?
For a moment, even the people who didn’t pay attention to her just now looked at Wei Yuxin differently.
Wei Yuxin straightened her expression. “Aunt, I did have some opinions about Zhiqin, but it’s all in the past. I just didn’t pay too much attention to some things when I mentioned them to my cousin in private. I know I was wrong. Aunt, Xuyan, Zhiqin, I don’t expect your forgiveness, but I know my mistake. I won’t talk casually in the future. Even if I’m jealous, I won’t say anything.”
As expected of a member of the Wei family. She still had the ability to handle emergency public relations.
She immediately made it seem like she was just jealous and didn’t pay attention to her words in private.
As a result, she was not the one who made the mistake. She only said that about Xu Zhiqin in private because she loved He Xuyan too much. This was not a big problem.
As expected, the expressions of the others softened.
“As for Xiao Xiaobai, I’ll get my aunts to take good care of her. I won’t let her appear in public anymore.”
After admitting her mistake, she proposed a solution. Wei Yuxin’s move was indeed quite good.
How could Lin Xiruo not understand what she meant?
She smiled and said, “I’m satisfied that you’re so sensible. I’ll also talk to Xuyan’s grandma about this. The Wei family has educated their children well. Grandma He will definitely be happy to hear that.”
Wei Yuxin’s expression changed again.
The person she relied on was Old Madam He, who indeed doted on her.
If Old Madam He heard about this… she could imagine the consequences.
She secretly clenched her fists. Lin Xiruo was really not easy to deal with!
“Don’t blame me for saying a few more words to you as our two families are long-time friends. As an elder, when I see that there’s something wrong with the juniors, I definitely have to show some concern. Otherwise, if word gets out, people will say that I’m occupying a high position but not doing anything. They’ll criticize the upbringing of our He family,” Lin Xiruo said with a smile.
Her words were sharp.
Anyone with discerning eyes could tell that she was mocking the Wei family for wanting Bai Ling to replace her.
Taking up an empty slot?
Even if the slot was empty, it was not something the Wei and Bai families should covet!
How could Wei Yuxin not understand what she meant?
Every word hit Wei Yuxin hard in the heart!
Lin Xiruo’s every word was said with a smile.
But every sentence could be interpreted with countless meanings.
...
Moreover, Lin Xiruo had clearly retaliated against all the grievances she had suffered all these years!
“Thank you for your advice, Aunt,” Wei Yuxin said in a low voice.
“You’re welcome. This is what I should do.” Lin Xiruo smiled and said, “In the future, you and Zhiqin have to get along well. Let’s not mention the past conflicts anymore. As for the Wei family’s business, you have to take good care of it. This is the foundation of a family. Zhiqin, let’s go over there.”
Wei Yuxin was shocked again when she heard Lin Xiruo mention the Wei family’s business.
