Chi Huan glanced at Demi, whose expression was obviously unwilling, but passed her and walked directly to Mo Shiqian. She lowered her head and pursed her lips and looked at his outstretched hand, feeling a little hesitant -
Have they already had a showdown with their elders
She slowly raised her hand to put her hand on it.
The "pop" sound was sudden and sharp, and Chi Huan almost subconsciously took his hand back.
But before she could step back, the man had already held her hand.
Mr. Xia had already stood up from the sofa. The sound just now was from him slamming the teacup on the ground. He has always been in a high position. Although he is not as calm and powerful as Lawrence, he still has that aura. If it were an ordinary little girl, she would probably be frightened to the point of being speechless.
It was just that Chi Huan's hand was held by the man, so it wasn't a big shock.
Mr. Xia pointed one hand directly at Mo Shiqian, and his whole body was full of awe-inspiring anger. He roared with full force, "Simon, don't think that just because you are the CEO of Clod Immer, you can not put our Xia family in such trouble." In my eyes, don’t forget that everything you have now belongs to your brother, I tell you, deal with this woman right away!”
After he finished speaking, he snorted coldly, "I heard that Mo Shichen died and resurrected. With Wen Yi's status and the Wen family's weight in the board of directors, you'd better be aware of it."
"We have already divorced."
Such a very calm sentence did not match the atmosphere full of gunpowder smoke.
Chi Huan was startled and turned his head to look at Xia Tangtang who made a sound.
She was sitting alone on a sofa, tired, cool, and quiet, her eyes dark, like a dead lake.
Mo Shiqian played with Chi Huan's fingers, lowered his eyelids, and his eyebrows were indifferent, without any unexpected reaction. He had obviously guessed this situation.
Demi opened her mouth in surprise, as if in disbelief.
The one who was most shocked was Mr. Xia, his eyes widened to the extreme, and his voice became hoarse at the end, "What did you say?"
Xia Tangtang raised his head and repeated calmly, with a soft and low voice, "Simon and I have been divorced a long time ago."
Mr. Xia stared at her and suddenly strode over.
There was a "pop" sound, and a loud slap was slapped hard.
It was such a slap that used all his strength, so much so that Chi Huan was frightened to see it. That kind of slap and such overwhelming anger were completely unlike a father slapping his daughter.
Even an irresponsible father like Chi An, even when Chi Huan was the most rebellious and unruly in her youth, never beat her like this.
"Nonsense!"
Xia Tangtang's face was slapped to the side, and it quickly became red and swollen.
But even so, there were no obvious mood swings on her face, no resentment or grievance, and she didn't even blink.
She raised her hand and touched the half of her face that was slapped, and a smile appeared on her lips. Her voice was cold and unchanged, "In recent years, I have neither contributed to the company like Wen Yi, nor have I made any contribution to the Lawrence family. , therefore, the child belongs to me, and I don’t want a share of the property..."
Xia Tangtang laughed softly and raised his eyes to look at his furious father. There was a hint of revengeful coolness and pleasure in his eyes, "Whether it's money, real estate, cars, or shares in clod-mmer, I don't have any." It’s half a point.”
Mr. Xia's anger soared to another level, his breathing became too rapid, and he was about to slap him down with another slap.
Xia Tangtang opened his eyes and looked at it, his eyes were deserted and desolate, and he watched helplessly as the slap fell again, motionless.
But in the end, the slap failed to fall.
Because Mo Shiqian had already dodged over and cut off Mr. Xia's hand.
He said calmly, "That's enough, Director Xia, if you get angry again, Tangtang, as a twenty-seven-year-old adult, has the right to decide on his own marriage. Besides, this is not how his daughter was taught."
Director Xia was in a rage and was about to throw Mo Shiqian's hand away, but at his age, how could his strength be the match of a thirty-year-old adult man.
After exerting force several times, he angrily tried to pull his hand away, but as soon as Mo Shiqian's strength was gone, he staggered back two steps and almost fell down.
After standing firm, he pointed at the tall, tall and handsome man in front of him, "My daughter has been married to you for five years, spent five years of her youth on you, and gave birth to a child for you. You are outside. You can force your adopted woman to get a divorce, but you can give her a clean house without paying a penny. What kind of man are you?"
Xia Tangtang finally stood up from the sofa, a faint smile appeared on her lips, "Dad, why are you so angry? The benefits that the Xia family has gained from clod-mmer over the years have been enough to support several Xia Tangtangs. No less than when I married Jin Sichen. I didn’t get a penny from my family after I got married, and it will be the same in the future. My father still didn’t lose money by raising me as his daughter, right?"
Mr. Xia was so angry that he still didn't come to terms with it, "You chose this man yourself. If you had known what would happen, why didn't you obey my words and marry Si Chen?"
"Since I chose this marriage, I can naturally end it on my own today. Originally, considering the relationship between the Lawrence family and the Xia family, we made an agreement not to announce this matter until necessary—"
She smiled slightly, her tone always calm, "But now that Simon has Miss Chi, it's hard for him to bear the crime of mistress for nothing. What's more, now that Little Mango is gone, for me, there is nothing in this world." Things are more important than my daughter."
After she said that, she walked straight between the two of them and came to Chi Huan, who was always silent.
Her voice was as calm as water, but half of her face was red and swollen from being slapped, and the other half was pale. The combination was very embarrassing, "Miss Chi, I know you have Jin Sihan's phone number... Feng Xing said it will take time to find his place to stay. , can you try to contact him for me?"
At the end of her words, the slightest hint of the fragility behind her calmness emerged.
Chi Huan looked into her eyes and met each other for a few seconds.
She opened her mouth, and after a while she said, "I called him today... and heard Little Mango's voice, but when I called him later, he refused to answer the phone."
"What else did he say?"
Chi Huan thought for a while, "He said... tell him the investigation results of Little Mango's kidnapping."
After a moment of silence, Xia Tangtang said, "Then please give me another shot."
Chi Huan looked at her, then at Mo Shiqian who was not far away, nodded, lowered his head and rummaged through his phone in his bag.
Demi walked over in a few steps, "Cousin, how can you trust her..."
Xia Tangtang tilted his head, Su Lai's gentle face was cold, and his eyes were more like ice, "Shut up."
