Xia Rushuang was shouting almost at the top of her lungs. The sound of the rain made her voice sound a little scattered.
The maid held up the umbrella and clutched her clothes, shivering a little from the cold.
"What did you say? Xiao Ai?"
"You should know how important Xiao Ai is to this family. You can't bear to delay my affairs."
Through the rain curtain, the maid couldn't see Xia Rushuang's expression clearly, but she seemed to see the cold light shining in Xia Rushuang's eyes.
The maid hesitated. She had been in Xia's house for a long time, but not too long either. She knew about the name Xiao Ai. This name was almost taboo in the family. She knew more or less about Xiao Ai from other old people. Love thing.
But she wasn't sure whether what Xia Rushuang said was true or false. What if she was lying? The old gentleman repeatedly emphasized that Xia Rushuang, a woman, could never enter the house again, nor could she answer her phone calls.
Xia Rushuang threatened: "If you delay my business today, just get out of this house."
The maid hesitated for a moment: "Just wait... I'll go ask."
She closed the door and hurried back.
The maid felt anxious and wandered back and forth in the living room for a long time. Finally, she gritted her teeth and knocked on the bedroom door of Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia.
Mr. Xia opened the door with a sleepy face.
"What's wrong?"
The maid gritted her teeth and said, "Sir, Xia Rushuang is here..."
Mr. Xia frowned: "What?"
"Xia Rushuang is here. She is outside the gate now. She insists on coming in."
Mr. Xia's face was very ugly.
"Let her go, tell her that she will never come to this home again, and don't waste her efforts."
Mr. Xia's patience with Xia Rushuang has run out. Over the past many years, he has indeed loved her as his biological daughter. However, Xia Rushuang has killed all those feelings.
Xia Rushuang whispered: "But she said... she wanted to tell you about Xiao Ai. She also said that if you don't see him, you will... regret it!"
Mr. Xia's expression changed: "Did she really mean Xiao Ai?"
"Yes, she is talking about Xiao Ai. If not for this, I would not dare to disturb you so late!"
Mr. Xia didn't say anything. He turned around and looked inside the room, where he heard his wife coughing.
Mr. Xia gently closed the door, and finally decided: "Go out and have a look."
The maid quickly said: "Sir, it's cold outside and raining heavily. You'd better wear more clothes."
Mr. Xia put on a thick coat, and the maid held the umbrella for him, "The ground is slippery, please be careful."
As soon as he walked out of the door of the living room, Mr. Xia felt a cool air mixed with water vapor hit his face. It was pitch dark outside, and the lights in the yard seemed to have no effect on the rainy night. The maid supported him and walked carefully. Get to the gate.
The door opened, and Mr. Xia saw Xia Rushuang standing outside the door, shivering from the rain, and soaked to the skin.
When she saw Mr. Xia, her eyes lit up and she trembled: "Uncle, you are finally willing to see me."
"If you hadn't said Xiao Ai, did you think I would meet you? Why on earth did you come out? If you just used Xiao Ai's name to trick me out, then you would have really disappointed me. I will give you everything the Xia family gives you. Take it all back.”
If Xia Rushuang really used Xiao Ai to trick him into meeting him today, then he would really be disgusted with her...
