Chapter 506: 323 Xie Lao in a Furious Outburst: Desire for Revenge and Claiming Lives, Come at Me (5 Updates)The elderly man grasped his cane, still wearing his hospital gown covered by an overcoat, his frame slightly frail.

Looking at Du Jinglan, his eyes incredibly complex.

Behind them followed Xie Yongqi, his expression unforthcoming, merely looking at her with an undeniable disappointment and helplessness, Xie Duo seemed to have anticipated this and remained calm. However, it was Xie Tongtong, eyes red as if a wooden figurine, unsure of what to do.

For money, harming human life, all these years, she had always been good to Shen Zhixian and loved Taotao greatly.

But whenever she thought about what she had done in the past, chills went down everyone’s spine.

Human nature, how complex it could be...

She could harm someone in secret yet face Shen Zhixian with smiles and laughter.

The two of them even got along almost like sisters.

When Du Jinglan saw them come out, what more was there to confused about? After the initial shock, she saw through everything and laughed quietly, fearless.

Her expression was ferocious and eerie.

Looking at Old Master Xie, ”Dad—are you conspiring with her to deceive me?”

”I want to see, which ghost in our family it really is?” Old Master Xie’s voice was old and deep, deliberately suppressed, growing even colder.

Xie Yongqi slightly closed his eyes, his mind reeling, and it took him a long time to say a few words:

”Jinglan, you shouldn’t—”

”What do you mean I shouldn’t, that’s your child, you, as a father, aren’t fighting for them, why can’t I do it!” At this point, Du Jinglan naturally stopped hiding anything.

They had set a trap for her.

Completely severing her escape!

What did she have to fear now?

”Xie Yongqi, they are your children, Xie Enterprises is the endeavor of your life, are you willing to let an ignorant young girl run rampant?” Du Jinglan’s face was fierce, full of mockery.

”I know you are a filial son, but father’s words shouldn’t be obeyed blindly, are you really content?”

”I just regret, not being ruthless enough back then!”

”Du Jinglan!” Old Master Xie yelled sharply, furiously livid, ”You still don’t repent, even at this point, you still think you did nothing wrong?”

”I was the one who initially wanted to bring her back home!”

”The one who forcibly wanted to bring her back home, was also me!”

”Before she asked, I said I wanted to compensate her, it was me!”

...

”Come to me if you want to split the family assets, divide the wealth, I consented to it all, you want retribution, seek vengeance, come to me!”

Old Master Xie spoke resoundingly, ”If you want revenge, come find me! The main culprit is me, just kill me, then everything would be over, right?”

”You want revenge, you want to claim a life, come find me! Why take it out on the children!”

The old man’s eyes were bloodshot, his face tragic with sympathy and furious helplessness, his complexion turning iron blue.

The entire living room was extremely silent, everyone holding their breath...

Du Jinglan chuckled softly, after a few seconds, her eyes red as she looked at him, ”You are my father, ever since I entered the Xie family, you’ve always been affectionate towards me, I...”

Shen Zhixian took a deep breath, ”Actually, I didn’t really want to split from the family, I could do without a single penny...”

”Shen Zhixian, at this point, what pretty words are you saying! Who are you fooling? We’re about to divide the properties, and you say you want nothing? Do you know how much money that is?” Du Jinglan would not let Shen Zhixian give up the money.

If she truly wanted nothing, was everything she did just to force her hand, then what was all her planning for?

What was she after?

What was it all for in the end, after ending up in such a situation?

”I’ve discussed with the uncle, he will transfer several properties under mine and Taotao’s names, I’ll retain a small part of the company shares, enough to get some dividends... making a fuss about leaving the house was just to pressure you, if I hadn’t fallen out with my uncle, you wouldn’t dare to fall out with me right?”

Shen Zhixian had the strongest backing in the Xie family, which was Old Master Xie himself, now that the relationship had soured, Du Jinglan had to seize the opportunity.

Du Jinglan was not foolish, many things became clear after some thought...

But right now her mind was too jumbled, looking around the room at everyone, she couldn’t help but sneer.
