When Xie's mother heard this, her face darkened and she retorted unhappily: "Xinyao is from the eighth-level laboratory of the institute. I don't believe that the outsider she found can be more capable than Xinyao. She insisted on recognizing an outsider and even made a big fuss for him. Ha, don't embarrass him when the time comes!"
Father Xie frowned.
On one side was his wife and daughter, and on the other was his sister. It would be inappropriate for him to speak on either side, so he just perfunctorily said, "We'll see when the time comes."
"Since we are going to attend the banquet, we still need to prepare the gifts." Although Xie's mother felt very uncomfortable, she still put on a dignified and generous attitude, with contempt in her eyes and eyebrows, and said lightly: "I remember buying a brooch for Xinyao before, but she didn't like it and never used it once. It's a good opportunity to give it to someone else this time."
She was talking about Seven, a newly emerging luxury brand, which has only entered the independent continent market in the past six months.
The boss behind the scenes is quite mysterious.
The brooch that Xie's mother mentioned is one of the works in Seven's high-end series, but it is not the foundation of Seven.
The most amazing thing about Seven is the work of the genius designer S.
But S's works are hard to come by.
Xie's mother had used her connections to buy it before, but because S's works are collectibles, buyers generally don't sell them once they've purchased them, so she hasn't bought it yet.
When Mr. Xie heard this, he subconsciously felt that it was inappropriate: "That brooch..."
"That brooch is worth less than a million. If it weren't for Tingyun's liking for her, I really wouldn't want to give it to someone else for free."
Among the three major families in the Independent Continent, the Xie family has plenty of money.
Xie's mother chose to give away a brooch that Xie Xinyao disliked, clearly wanting to secretly vent her dissatisfaction.
When Mr. Xie heard her say that the brooch was worth one million, he didn't say anything else. He acquiesced to her behavior and sighed, "What a pity."
Mother Xie's eyes turned slightly cold, she sneered, and ordered the servants to go to the storage room to find the things.
After hearing this, the servants quickly went to look for the things. When Xie's mother saw the people walking away, she let out a breath of foul air and said unwillingly: "How long do you think Tingyun can live? Hasn't she always been in poor health? I'm afraid she will be deceived by others in this way!"
To put it bluntly, the Xie family is able to keep their composure and attend the family recognition banquet now because they are hoping that Xie Tingyun will stop in his tracks in the future and leave everything to Xie Xinyao.
If they hadn't had this idea in mind, they would have lost their patience long ago.
Mother Xie shook her hands and said in a low voice in annoyance: "Didn't Ji Nan find a miracle doctor? I hope that miracle doctor can be of some use."
Father Xie did not comment.
Mother Xie thought for a moment and said to him, "See if you can make an appointment with Tingyun's doctor. I want to meet with her alone."
Father Xie looked at her worriedly: "Don't have any bad thoughts."
Xie Tingyun is Nan Tianyi's apple of the eye. If anyone dares to play tricks under Nan Tianyi's nose and is discovered by Nan Tianyi, he will definitely fall out with them.
"I know, I'm not that stupid." Mother Xie gave him a reproachful look, knowing what she was thinking: "I just want to see that miracle doctor."
Father Xie thought for a moment and said, "Let me arrange it."
*
After all, Mr. Xie is a member of the Xie family.
It was relatively easy for him to get a phone number.
In the evening, Qiao Nian received a text message from Xie's father, asking her if it was convenient for her to meet and ask about Xie Tingyun's condition.
Qiao Nian hacked into the other person's phone and found out the identity of the person who sent her the message in less than a minute. Then she replied directly with "I'm busy" and easily added the number to her phone's blacklist.
