Master's Untamed Wife

1247 Overturn The Boat

Song Xin'ai really didn't think there was anyone more partial than her own parents and they had the nerve to call Grandpa Xiang partial? He was a fair and upright person. It was true that he was slightly partial when it came to Raelle but as she said, Raelle did grow up in front of her eyes.

Emotionally, he would be more attached to that girl whom he watched all her life rather than Xiang Weimin and Xiang Wai. But it didn't mean he was unfair. He would give the other two whatever he gave Raelle too. He would never suppress one just to lift the other.

So, yes. She did think he was a lot fairer than her own family.

"You don't confuse us with your eloquence," said Grandma Song in a bad mood. "No matter what, that girl is still your daughter. You brought her into this world. How can she deny you? You need to establish your authority as a mother."

Song Xin'ai actually felt like laughing right now at the extravagant idea of her mother. "That girl is already married. She isn't a kid who I can control. I'm not an opponent of the Xiang family who treats her as a precious jewel and I am no opponent of her in-laws' family either. After all, the Shui family isn't a soft persimmon either."

"Sister, you're just finding excuses now," said her brother from the side. "Are you asking us to swallow this breath? How is that possible? We extended a hand towards her in good faith and she dared to slap on our faces. We are still her elders. She shouldn't have been so rude."

"Oh please! Everyone in this room knows how much good faith was involved in this move. Do you think Raelle is a fool like me? I might be suppressed by filial piety. She isn't. I might be lazy to deal with you all but she isn't. She was raised by Xiang Tianyu and Mu Chenyan personally. Both of them are tough nuts. Do you really expect that they raised a soft and gullible little girl? If she was so naive, she wouldn't be named one of the best entrepreneurs. She wouldn't be called a business genius if she was so delicate and easily deceived. You can stop doing these sneaky moves and it might save you. Don't go in front of her to remind her of your annoying presence or she might lose it and it won't end well for this family."

"How are you talking?" asked Grandpa Song with a stern face.

"Am I not speaking English? Is it difficult to understand, Father? I think you understand but you are purposely refusing to understand. All because you have realized how much benefit Raelle can bring you. Not because she is an Xiang. But also because she is Raelle Xiang! However, I'd still tell you honestly. She isn't me. I might be an insecure and love-deprived person who would fall for your sweet bullets but Raelle doesn't lack anything. Not even family. So, what makes you think you will go and invite her to a birthday and she'll come running? It makes me truly question if you all are too naive or something to even have this idea?"

Considering that Song Xin'ai was already tired from work and had also begun to get out of her lazy shell, it was no surprise that she said what was on her mind without any burden. She didn't depend on this family. She once truly respected her parents and kept giving in to them but there is always a limit to how much you can bend. Eventually, you'd break too.

She sighed heavily and said, "Next time, please don't call me for something like this. I really thought you had an urgent matter. But this... This was truly a waste of time. I could have used this time to catch up on my sleep. At least, I'd live a day longer if I slept well. What am I getting out of this so-called urgent discussion?" With that, she didn't give anyone a face and turned to leave without looking back.

She didn't lack this so-called family anymore. She had her own kids. Even though they weren't attached to her. But none of them hated her or always schemed to get benefits out of her. If anything, they all wanted her well-being. Even the most indifferent Raelle would tell her to pay attention to her health. But she had never heard it from her blood-related relatives.

Watching her leave like this, there were plenty of people in the main room who were panicking in their hearts. All these people were so used to Song Xin'ai's submissiveness that they took it for granted but now that she was no longer willing to bow down, they panicked.

Grandma Song slapped her hand on the table in rage, "Who is it? Who is giving her this confidence again? Which bastard is it? Last time it was that Xiang Hulin that swept her away from my control and now, there is someone else? Go and find out if she has been in contact with the Xiang family lately. I don't believe she can have the audacity to go against me without someone fanning the flames behind the scenes. It seems she has forgotten the last lesson."

"You should be careful with whatever you do," said Grandpa Song tiredly. If possible, he didn't want to become enemies with Song Xin'ai. She wasn't just the most promising daughter he had but she was also the most filial. He knew very well how much the other people in this family truly cared about him and the old woman. But he knew his wife was stubborn and he wouldn't be able to control her at all. "Just don't go as far as you did the last time," he warned in a low voice to his wife.

"You are afraid again? They couldn't find the traces of my manipulation back then. How can they do it now?"

"Times are different. Back then no one went into further depth just because of the death of the Xiang family's Matriarch. But this time... Anyway, don't overturn your boat with your overconfidence."
