Chapter 446: It’s My Grandson, Xie Lan

“You’re in someone else’s house. Stop talking about Chairman Huo!”
That person was not convinced. “That’s the truth. Miss Xie’s health wasn’t good to begin with, but Mrs. Huo moved into the Huo residence directly. She was so angry that Miss Xie was sent to the hospital. Then, she got depression and committed suicide within a year.
“From then on, the Xie family and the Huo family cut off all ties. The two families were like enemies. Old Master Xie never allowed Chairman Huo to step into the Xie family again. He didn’t even allow Huo Cenfeng to attend Miss Xie’s death anniversary.
“That’s right. Speaking of which, the Xie family is also very loyal. After Miss Xie passed away, Old Master Xie followed Miss Xie’s living will and didn’t let that scumbag pay his respects once,”
As they spoke, everyone was puzzled again, “M/hy is the Xie family here this time…”
Ye Beisheng wanted to laugh.
Lin Zhen lowered his eyes and explained, “The Xie family is indeed good at pretending. In the upper class… Who didn’t say that the Xie family was loyal?
“Everyone said that the Xie family regretted marrying Miss Xie to Chairman Huo. They said that after Miss Xie passed away, the Xie family became enemies with the Huo family and the Ninth master to avenge the grievances Miss Xie suffered back then.
“But the truth is that the Xie family was trying to cover up Miss Xie’s death! In order to protect Huo Cenfeng and Xue Qing…”
“The real cause of death? Are you saying that Miss Xie did not commit suicide,
but…
“Ninth master didn’t find out anything about these things.”
Ye Beishen’s eyes flashed. Her grandfather and Miss Xie knew each other. There were many memories of Miss Xie in her grandfather’s notes.
If she could find her grandfather, would she be able to find out the real cause of Miss Xie’s death? Would she be able to find evidence that those people had killed her?
Ye Beisheng felt a chill down her spine. “Old Master Xie tried every possible means to kill his own daughter. He didn’t even hesitate to collude with Huo Cenfeng and Xue Qing, who killed her. Aren’t they father and daughter? What kind of deep hatred is it…”
Yet now, the Xie family was still pretending to be sanctimonious.
In the evening, the banquet officially began.
The appearance of the Xie family shocked everyone present.
Especially the young man beside Old Master Xie. He seemed to be very close to the Huo family.
Ye Beisheng looked up and met Xie Lan’s eyes.
She narrowed her eyes.
Xie Lan raised his glass to her politely and did not care that Ye Beisheng was ignoring him. He finished the wine in one gulp.
The Xie family and the Huo family had fallen apart in the early years. Now, the Xie family had gradually declined and could not compare to the Huo family.
However, it was undeniable that the two families were old nobles and had a deep relationship.
If Huo Xiting didn’t exist, the Huo Family would probably be the same as the Xie Family now. Everyone felt that if the two families hadn’t had that incident back then, they would have appreciated each other.
But twenty years had passed…
Did Old Master Xie think things through?
If the Huo Family and Xie Family joined forces again, with Ninth Master’s methods, there would probably be no room for the other families to survive in An City!
Therefore, someone asked tactfully and impatiently, “Old Master Xie, this is…”
“This is my grandson, Xie Lan.” Old Master Xie laughed.
Everyone pricked up their ears.
Huh? What did he say?
This was the son of Old Master Xie’s daughter. His surname was actually Xie…
Moreover, Old Master Xie only had two daughters. The eldest daughter, Xie Zhinian, had passed away. The second daughter, Xie Qi, had never heard of a son.
Then…
At this moment, someone shouted, “The Ninth master is here!”
