When Xi Xiaye expressed this, Deng Wenwen paused and her expression looked worse. The fury in her eyes almost shot out.

Xi Xiaye sat back down slowly. “To only care for your self-interest, you can go look for Yue Lingsi and her daughter. Isn’t the Yue family your strong support system?”

“Go home. I already told you long before that I’ll snatch back what belongs to me. I won’t give you West Park and I’ll also play around with Yueying first. I’d like to see how the Yue family saves you this time. Back then, you could use Father as your bargaining chip. A while ago, your target was me, but now I’d really like to see who else you can sacrifice.” Xi Xiaye’s tone was quite calm and her expression was indifferent as she watched Deng Wenwen whose lips were clearly trembling from suppressing her anger. Evidently, she was not planning to concede on this.

“That means that you’re determined to topple Yueying, aren’t you?” Deng Wenwen’s hands turned into tight balls. She slammed the table hard, and her fierce gaze fixed on Xi Xiaye with a glare that was as sharp as a knife.

Just as Xi Xiaye was about to respond with certainty and Deng Wenwen’s fist was about to swing toward her, a sweet-tempered voice suddenly came from behind. It was obvious whose voice that belonged to.

“Grandmother! Why did you come here!?”

Indeed, in the next instant, Xi Xinyi rushed to Deng Wenwen’s side with a hand on her belly. Her face was filled with anxiety, and she looked rather wan and sallow.

“Xin Er!”

When she saw Xi Xinyi, Deng Wenwen’s tensed and furious expression eased a little. She turned to look worriedly at Xi Xinyi as she asked coldly, “How’s the company doing?”

Upon hearing this, Xi Xinyi’s charming little face immediately became sullen. She bit on her lip slightly while her eyes were filled with a cold light as she looked toward Xi Xiaye.

After a while, she said, “Grandmother, don’t worry about the company matters anymore, mother and I will handle it, don’t worry, go to the hospital first, the doctor says that you shouldn’t be working too hard.”

Xi Xinyi’s voice was filled with concern, yet she looked at Xi Xiaye with an exceptionally stern gaze.

“How can I not be worried about Yueying’s current state? Yueying is about to be toppled by this vicious, ungrateful wretch! I just knew that she would do this. She has sinister intentions. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have thought about asking for those shares back. Now, she’s proven that my predictions were right back then!”

Deng Wenwen was in a rage. Suddenly, she was suddenly very upset about letting Shen Wenna take that document with her back then. When she remembered her arrogant expression then, she felt that if she had made her leave it behind, she would have done so.

“The shares were the compensation from Father to my mother anyway. What reasons did you have to ask for it back? How these shares are to be handled was up to my mother!”

Deng Wenwen was about to explode in fury from Xi Xiaye’s words. She was losing control of her anger as she panted slightly while glaring at Xi Xiaye. “Hmph, now you know your mother has the final say. Wasn’t Shen Wenna quite arrogant back then? She declared that she left the marriage with nothing and did not take anything from the Xi family. Now, she suddenly values it, huh? I’m still suspicious about whether she had ulterior motives when she first joined the Xi family!”

“Enough! Grandmother’s already like this. Do you want to anger her to death?” On the side, Xi Xinyi could not bear it any longer, she glared at Xi Xiaye in a reprimanding manner. “Even if you want to go against us, you don’t have to provoke Grandmother like this. The doctor says she can’t be provoked anymore. She was just hospitalized!”

“The person who’s provoking her isn’t me. It’s her who’s looking to be provoked. If I don’t satisfy her, wouldn’t that be disrespectful of her dignity?”

Xi Xiaye smiled wryly. “Since you have the time to come looking for me, why don’t you try to come up with ways to save your Yueying?! Do you really think Mother wants Yueying? Just a little rustle of the leaves and Yueying’s on the verge of collapsing. On the outside, it’s a large-scale movie company, but in reality, it has become an empty rack of scrap after being managed by you lot all these years. Every time there’s a problem, Yueying faces the threat of collapsing!”

Xi Xiaye did not bother being courteous. A mocking sneer curved on the corner of her lips. “The real reason Yueying is being pushed to its extinction is you fools. If you’re not good at managing a company, then don’t pretend to be a lady boss. Perhaps this is karma. You should just accept your fate.”

Even though Xi Xiaye had not been in touch with Yueying much, she began to understand Yueying internally in recent times. Yueying looked like a large-scale, grand company on the outside, yet in reality, they almost could not fill up all of the financial loopholes within. They still had billions of debt with the bank which Yue Lingsi and Xi Xinyi had been fussing over. In addition to the lack of unity within the company’s upper management, they differed a lot in opinions, so it was extremely hard to manage everything.

Liu Lingyu had settled on exactly this aspect. He spent effort taking those people in and putting them under him. Now that he had left, those people would naturally leave with him too. After all, Chenye Movies and Televisions’ support system was World Corporation which had wealth in abundance, so they did not have to worry about any financial woes. In fact, the benefits that Chenye Movies offered was far great than Yueying!

Water flowed down in nature. On the contrary, humans strived to move up in life. The huge group of people just left with Liu Lingyu. Now that Chen Ye Movies was set up to do things on a larger scale, they had a branch there and stationed their headquarters in City B. They also developed a movie and television operations base with other large corporations, so they became really popular on the news recently!

Xi Xiaye naturally did not know about all of this since she had been spending time with Mu Yuchen these past few days and did not pay attention to this news. She had been focused on arranging documents, handling data, or preparing simple analysis reports for Mu Yuchen in the office. Where would she find time to care about all of this?

Now, she knew that Yueying’s matters had reached such a state. In fact, by the looks of it, it was quite bad!

When Xi Xiaye ridiculed her that way, Deng Wenwen could not hold back her anger anymore. She slammed the table, and then with the sound of the cup startling, the coffee in the cup splashed out.

“Who are you calling fools? You little wench! Is this how Shen Wenna taught you to speak? You dare to insult me? What kind of horrible upbringing! You only taint the Xi family name!”

“You keep saying that you’re from the Xi family, but don’t forget your surname! It’s not Xi! You didn’t even bear a child for the Xi family. Do you really think you’re the head lady of the Xi family? Grandfather left West Park to me before he left, not you! Wake up! Even I feel sorry for you right now!”

“Shut up! Shut up right now!”

Xi Xiaye’s words were like sharp knives that pierced Deng Wenwen’s heart. She finally lost control and shouted, even picking up the coffee before her and—
