The Marriage Partner Is The Villain Boss Chapter 31

Chapter 31

The square table is very long, and it is difficult for people sitting below to see the faces of people above them, and naturally they cannot get food.

In Xu Zhiyi’s impression, she either ate rice dryly or dipped thick steamed buns in oily soup from leftovers. She could barely feel half full after one meal.

However, the aroma of the food kept entering my nose.Once she couldn’t bear it anymore and stood up to pick up some braised pork. Afterwards, her mother slapped her hard about ten times with a ruler, and her palms were dripping with blood.

Since then, she never appeared at the square table again, even if she was dizzy with hunger, she never left the house.Le Lei was afraid that she would starve to death, so she hurriedly handed her to Lin Huifang like trash.

“Where to sit?” Pei Qingyan glanced at the magnificent reliefs around him, as if he saw something unsightly, and quickly turned his gaze to Xu Zhiyi, her frown gradually relaxing.

“Zhiqua——”

Xu Zhiyi pulled out the two chairs where the guest of honor was seated and said, “Here.”

She glanced at the butler who left in a hurry, her expression unchanged, thinking that the protagonist of this meal would soon appear.

Sometimes, she really couldn’t understand why her treatment was so different from that of her brothers and sisters, both bearing the Xu family’s surname.

Her parents treated her like a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, wishing she would disappear.

“If you don’t want to make excuses with them later, I can find a reason to take you away.”

The woman’s voice was so soft that she could only hear it.

Xu Zhiyi raised his eyes and met her gentle eyes.The words of evasion reached his lips and turned into silence.

She thought it was better not to refuse this kindness, at least not verbally.

…

“Hey, sister, I’m finally willing to come out. I thought you would be arrogant after you became a rich man.”

The menacing sound of heels hitting the ground stopped abruptly in front of the table.

The person who came had high cheekbones, a slightly mean face, and a faint sneer hanging from the corner of his mouth.

“If I am really arrogant, I will not listen to my parents and come back.” Xu Zhiyi turned a blind eye to her provocation, “But you, sister, I heard that there is something wrong with the company’s operations department?”

“How do you know?!”

Xu Yunyun’s expression changed, and when she was about to ask further questions, she saw Pei Qingyan’s stern expression out of the corner of her eye and immediately shut up in anger.

But she didn’t want to give up, so she hurriedly turned around and asked the butler to serve the food to change the subject.

Just at this moment, three more figures came outside the door.

“Xiao Jiang, happy cooperation, we are almost in-laws…”

Xu Dehui patted the man beside him on the shoulder, not hiding the smile in his tone.

“Yes, Xiao Jiang, I’ve known since I was a child that you would have a great future.” Le Lei also looked at the other person lovingly, as if he was her own son.

They were talking and laughing.

Xu Zhiyi closed his eyes after seeing clearly who the person surrounded was.When he opened it again, he had suppressed his disgust.

If anyone wanted to say who she didn’t want to see the most, Jiang Huai was definitely ranked first.

Not to mention that absurd marriage, the other party’s contemptuous attitude and the behavior that was tantamount to putting her on the fire when they broke off the engagement made her extremely disgusted with the other party.

“Speaking of the shares, when will President Pei’s promise be delivered?” When Xu Dehui was sitting on the main seat, his face was full of high spirits, as if he had a lot of wealth at his fingertips.

“Well,” Pei Qingyan seemed to smile, “it depends on your daughter’s wishes. She has the final say as to how much I give and how I give it.”

Suddenly, the dining table fell into a brief silence.

Xu Zhiyi looked up and found that his parents were exchanging glances, probably thinking about what strategy to use next.Seeing this, she didn’t take the initiative to break the silence and gave the woman beside her a chicken leg.

“Reward me?”

The woman naturally came over and gently bit her earlobe, her thoughts clearly revealed.

Xu Zhiyi said “hmm” and only heard her whisper, “It seems I have to work harder.”

The first person to break the silence was Xu Yunyun.

After receiving hints from her parents’ attitude, and not being able to bear the good life of her younger sister, she couldn’t wait to speak, “You should give back to the family, that’s what you should do, you–”

“Should you? Why don’t you want such a good opportunity?”

Xu Zhiyi choked back, “Since I was a child, I was the only one who thought of me when I was doing my best for the family… Heh, I’m afraid I was pushed into a pit of fire.”

She’s a bit self-deprecating.

What’s more, it’s a deep sense of powerlessness.In the past, she was like suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. She was obviously suffering from the disease due to her family of origin, but she almost never refused to do anything her parents asked her to do.

Fortunately, she was able to find a chance to leave home and stayed away for six years.Otherwise, even today, she would not make up her mind to separate from this family.

“Zhiyi, what you said makes my mother very sad.” Le Lei interrupted at the right time, her eyes were like looking at an ignorant child, “We have indeed neglected you over the years, which is what we did wrong. However, in terms of food and clothing, how have we ever wronged you? You actually said that this home is a fire pit…”

She wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes, as if her heart was broken by those words.

“Yes,” Xu Dehui cleared his throat with reproach in his eyes, “It seems that we have been too indulgent to you all these years, and we actually raised a daughter like you.”

“As for your abuse of me when I was a child, I am contacting legal channels to resolve it.”

Xu Zhiyi didn’t bother to take a look at their improvisation, “See you in court later.”

“Hey, no, why are you talking about childhood? Don’t just accuse us. Do you have any evidence?”

Facing Le Lei’s chaotic probing, she remained calm, “If you want others to know, you have to do it yourself. When you use beatings and scolding to vent your emotions, you never consider the occasion. There is naturally plenty of evidence.”

Hearing this, Xu Dehui lowered his face and glared at his wife bitterly.

However, he was not that easy to give up, and he softened his tone slightly, “We don’t have much experience in raising children, and sometimes we are a bit harsh in educating you. But you have grown up peacefully, and you are living a good life now. Let’s forget about the past, it will be ugly when it comes to court. Mr. Pei, what do you think? Is this nonsense?”

“I think this is good.” Pei Qingyan chose to ignore his hint, “You don’t need to ask my opinion anymore, my wife means what I mean.”

“But once this kind of thing is hyped by the media, both our companies will be affected…”

“I can bear this turbulence, and so can the group.” Pei Qingyan interrupted, leaving no room for maneuver.

Hearing this, Xu Dehui shut up and a thin layer of sweat fell on his forehead.

Not only him, but everyone at the table fell into varying degrees of silence.

“Xiao Yi, do you really want to do something so awesome? Uncle Xu had good intentions when he adopted you.”

Jiang Huaiyu, who had been observing silently for a long time and had almost no sense of presence, spoke.Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
