“Dad!” Xie Wenhui exclaimed in shock, his face turning pale. He took a few steps forward, anxiously shouting, “Dad, what are you talking about? I am your only son!”
“So what if you’re my only son?” Senior Master Xie sneered. “I’m not dead yet, and you and your daughter are already coveting my property. I don’t want a son like you!”
“Dad… Dad, you can’t do this…” Xie Wenhui’s voice was trembling as he turned to Senior Madame Xie begging, “Mother, please persuade Dad!”
Senior Madame Xie was also shocked, hurriedly attempting to soothe Senior Master Xie, “Husband, if the child is disobedient, teach him slowly. How can you sever ties with him?”
Senior Master Xie turned to look at her, his eyes cold and stern, “In my life, I, Xie Guang, have always kept my word, like spitting nails, never contradict myself. When I say to sever ties, I mean it. If you can’t let him go, we can just divorce, and you can spend your life with him!”
Senior Madame Xie was scared.
She was of such an old age. If she were to divorce her husband, wouldn’t it become a laughingstock?
After a glance at Xie Wenhui, she didn’t say anything more, thinking to herself, could a bond between a father and son be severed so easily?
At the moment, her husband was just speaking out of anger.
Once his anger had subsided, she would persuade him again, and surely her husband would change his mind.
Xie Wenhui, realizing that Senior Madame Xie was no longer speaking for him, was so frightened that his soul almost left his body.
He was just a good-for-nothing, incompetent at everything, still freeloading at this old age.
If Senior Master Xie severed ties with him, how was he going to survive in the future?
Qin Huilan was also petrified.
Her aspirations were to become the future matriarch of the Xie Family, not a pitiful person driven away from the Xie Family.
She quickly stepped forward to say, “Dad, please calm down. Tongtong is still young and doesn’t understand things, she just spoke nonsense. Wenhui and I aren’t thinking like that, right, Wenhui?”
“Yes, yes, yes,” Xie Wenhui eagerly agreed, “Dad, Huilan is right. It’s not what we think. Huilan and I did wrong by not having a son to continue the Xie family line, if Yunlin and Xiao Fei take over the Xie Family, Huilan and I have no objections.”
He had the desire to take all of the Xie Family’s property for himself.
But since Senior Master Xie was adamant, preferring not to acknowledge him as his son than to hand over the Xie Estate to him, what else could he do?
If he stayed in the Xie family, even if Yunlin and Jinfei were feasting on meat, he could at least sip on soup.
Leaving the Xie family, he would have nothing but the chilly wind.
“Regretting it now?” Senior Master Xie raised an eyebrow and sneered, “Too late!”
Senior Master Xie glared at the butler, “Is the lawyer called?”
The butler quickly nodded, “Yes, yes, the lawyer is on his way.”
When Xie Wenhui heard that, he was filled with a sense of doom, suddenly became furious, and landed a heavy slap on Xie Motong’s face, “Xie Motong! You’re just a child, why do you harbor such malicious intentions? What nonsense did you spout, upsetting your Grandfather like this! Aren’t you going to apologize to your Grandfather immediately and ask him to forgive us?”
Xie Wenhui was out of control in his fury, not withholding any force in the slap, leaving a blatant handprint on Xie Motong’s face.
Xie Motong was shocked by the slap.
Even though her parents had always wished for a son to inherit the Xie estate, they had always pampered her and her sister and never hit her.
This was the first time she had been hit.
She touched her painfully throbbing cheek in a daze, when Qin Huilan harshly twisted her waist, “Tongtong, what are you doing standing there? Why aren’t you kneeling to your Grandfather yet, to apologize?”
As another wave of intense pain surged from her waist, Xie Motong jolted back to reality..
