Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

"It might be too late to do this, but let's run a paternity test between me and Yaoyao. Rest assured that if it's proven that she's really my daughter, I would give her what's rightfully hers."

However, this claim was enough for others to question Xiao Yunyao's position in their family. Wouldn't that mean that Mr. Xiao only married her mother just to take responsibility for getting her pregnant? But if it was proven that she wasn't his child, everything would obviously be handed to Xiao Rufeng.

Xiao Yunyao glanced at her mother and saw how ghastly pale her face was. Her heart dropped to her stomach, as fear filled her entirety. What if she wasn't her father's daughter? Wouldn't that mean that she was nothing but an outsider to the Xiao family?

Meanwhile, Xiao Rufeng was left flabbergasted. That was such a low blow coming from her father. Did he really suspect that Xiao Yunyao wasn't his from the start, but proceeded to marry her stepmother?This chapter is updated by novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

"Dear, how could you say such words? Yaoyao is yours. Weren't you there when I gave birth to her? Even your cousins say that she resembled you somehow." When her husband merely glared at her, she continued with a feign calmness on her face.

"Don't decide so recklessly. This must have been a misunderstanding." Madam Xiao said, trying to convince her husband to calm down. "I'm sure that Yaoyao didn't mean to harm Feng'er."

Yan Xiuchen grimaced at her words and couldn't help but interrupt her. He realized that the apple didn't fall far from the tree after all. Xiao Yunyao was just like her mother. For Xiao Yunyao to be able to think and act like this, she had obviously learned it all from her mother.

It made him wonder what kind of person Xiao Rufeng's mother was. She must have been quite a kind person, Yan Xiuchen thought, given how Xiao Rufeng would light up whenever she talked about her mother.

"Madam Xiao must be taking me for a fool, then. I'm pretty sure that the security recording we secured had Miss Xiao Yunyao visiting the hotel I owned and bribing one of our staff members.

Mr. Xiao scowled at his wife, his eyes fixated on her.

"CEO Yan already has evidence that could prove your daughter's crime, and you are still trying to pass it off as a misunderstanding?"

"Would you rather believe a stranger, Dad, than me and Mom?" Xiao Yunyao retorted. "He's dating Feng Jie. Of course, he would side with her."

"Pathetic." Yan Xiuchen spat out venomously. "You have offended me by trying to make one of my properties a crime scene, and now you are trying to push the blame on us? You are really quite something, Xiao Yunyao."

Xiao Yunyao flinched over his words, while Jin Qiu glared at him, but Yan Xiuchen couldn't be bothered with the other man at all.

"Enough! Are you still going to deny it? Do we need to see the evidence for ourselves before you admit to your crime? It's not like I don't believe you, Yaoyao, but I can't think of any reason why CEO Yan and Su Xiaofei would want to press charges against you if you haven't done anything to your sister!"

Xiao Yunyao and her mother fell silent, while Jin Qiu's parents shook their heads and convinced their son to leave and not get involved with Xiao Yunyao anymore. However, Jin Qiu refused to leave her side, so his parents could only excuse themselves and leave, but not before giving Xiao Yunyao a disapproving look.

Xiao Yunyao could only look at her father with teary eyes. She couldn't believe that he was denying her in front of everyone.

Su Xiaofei.

How could Xiao Yunyao not know that woman?

Five years ago, she attempted to bribe Su Xiaofei to drop Xiao Rufeng as her talent, but that woman threatened to expose every single secret she had been hiding in the closet. Xiao Yunyao didn't even know how Su Xiaofei was able to dig her dirt and use it against her.

For the first time in Xiao Yunyao's life, she found a person more cunning than her. Su Xiaofei scared the hell out of her during their encounter and since then, she never dared to go anywhere near that demoness.

This was why she could only rely on someone else to scheme against her sister. However, she didn't expect that Su Xiaofei would still be able to get herself involved in her recent mischief and had been waiting for the right moment to pounce on her.

What's more, she had just signed a death wish when she offended Yan Xiuchen tonight. It seemed like everyone had decided to persecute her tonight.

"Dad, please…" She begged her father, but he was too heartbroken to hear any more of her excuses.

"You can't do this to me. I'm your daughter! You can't fire me. You need help to run the company." She reasoned out.

What was she supposed to do then? She was on the verge of losing her status as an heiress of the Xiao family and had been stripped of her position in the company.

"Take your mother with you and leave. I can't bear to look at the two of you right now." Her father dismissed her. "Whether your mother was lying to me or not, we can only wait and see. You don't need to worry about the company. I might be sick, but I'm not disabled. I'm still capable of running the company on my own until I deem one of you worthy to succeed me."

Xiao Rufeng raised a slender brow but didn't comment on it. Her father should have known her stand about it. She had long told her father that she had no interest in succeeding the company. Although she had received the education she needed to run the company, she knew that she was lacking in experience that Xiao Yunyao had accumulated.
