CHAPTER 269

"Yes ma. Thank you."

"No worries. Keep a close watch but make sure not to be exposed under any circumstance, do you hear me?"

"Yes ma."

"Alright, that would be all," the first voice said calmly and the call went dead.

"Any useful information we can use?" Another feminine voice asked from the room where both ladies sat down.

"None yet. So far it seems our grandniece has been doing so well And brother is entrusting more and more work into her hands."

"Wow. Hu Qi, we need to do something fast. We cannot just allow her come and ruin things for us," Lin Xuilan added.

She was so not happy about the way things were going all of a sudden. Her son who was first in the picture of the inheritance and company was barely carried along anymore for things.

"We cannot strike now, lest brother would be angry and take action against us."

"Are we just going to sit down and watch as she takes over?" Lin Xiulan grumbled.

"Hey, do not grumble where I am, Xuilan. It was not my husband that showed up all of a sudden to ruin my plans. It was yours." Lin Xiulan could no longer argue again.

Indeed it was her husband that ruined everything, if not they would have been able to come up with a way to manipulate the DNA results and bribe the other members of the family to support them on their claim that Li Jing wasn’t related to them at all.

Instead Lin Liqin decided to pursue after this case and even made it classified. That alone had being a sword at their backs warning them not to try and take the bold step to do what they had planned.

"I know and I am angry at him because of it."

"Good, you should be," Hu Qi fired back at her in a not so calm fashion. She wouldn’t be having this headache ifg her sister-0in-law was smart enough.

Sigh!

She let out a deep sigh before looking over at her down casted sister-in-law. "Xuilan!"

No answer.

"Xiulan!"

"Yes, sister-in-law?"

"Relax and calm down, I promise we would make things right. Brother would see for himself that she is not worth anything and all that she had achieved so far had just been shear luck, nothing more."

A bright smile formed on Lin Xiulan’s face at the words of her dashing charismatic, breathtaking sister-in-law.

"Noted."

"Just remain patient and that you seek shall be yours."

"I will. You have my full-fledged support anytime any day. I sincerely do not know why your late mother did not choose to give the necklace to every first daughter of the family rather than to the heir of the family to do as they pleased. Was she not thinking clearly when she..."

BANG!

SPLASH!

SPLATTER!

Lin Xiulan closed her eyes in shock and curved herself in her chair at what followed. Never would she imagined that Hu Qi would ever do that to her.

What happened was that before Lin Xiulan had finished what she was saying, Hu Qi threw her glass of wine at Lin Xuilan.

Luckily for the latter, she had managed to dodge on time and escape being smashed with wine and cut with its broken shards of glass.

Slowly, she managed to peel her eyes off of the spilled drink and then brought her gaze to see her sister–in -law who by this time was now looking deadlier than she was a minute ago.

that most people knew. The lady who does not take rubbish.

"Where you intentionally aiming at me, Hu Qi?" Lin Xuilan asked feeling all riled up by her sister-in-law’s behavior.

"Sister Qi to you, Xiulan. And yes, I was intentionally aiming for you and not just any part of your body but your head itself."

"What? Are you okay?" Lin Xuilan yelled at her.

"Yes I am." A wicked smile appeared on her face as she stood up from where she was sitting down and Lin Xuilan followed after her.

"Why? Aren’t I on your side?"

"Yes you are, but that Does not give you the damn right to dare insult my late mother, your late mother-in-law."

"But I never did insult her."

"Then what do you call, was she not thinking clearly, Lin Xiulan?"

It then dawned on her that she had indirectly insulted her mother-in-law and gotten on Hu Qi’s bad side when she was trying to be in her favour. "I... I did not mean anything bad by that Hu Qi."

"I warned you, do not call me by name so casually, Lin Xuilan!"

"Calm down. I never meant to be insultive to mother. My apologies for offending you but that did not call for you behaving like a taunt, sister-in-law."

Hu Qi balled her hands into a fist at her side. She was ready for some action.

Today she had received enough insult. If not that Li Jing came into their lives, she would have no use to be bothering with the likes of greedy people like Lin Xuilan.

They only had a common enemy they wanted out of the way and nothing more.

"Say that one more time."

"I said, since you are not only behaving like a riff rat now, that you should not behave like a taut."

"I’ll show you who is a riff rat, Lin Xiulan. By the time I am done with you, you would know that things aren’t always what they seem."

"My point exactly. Come down from your high horse and let us think rather than fight," Lin Xuilan advised her sarcastically.

"Oh no, Xuilan. I would teach you a lesson for uttering such nonsense in the first place."

"Enough!" Both of them instantly kept quiet and turned their head in the direction of the strong masculine voice that spoke.

"Can you two stop behaving like children and focus on the goal? Mother... there is no time. We must act quick."
