While Xi Xinyi took in all of Qi Lei's reactions naturally, she could not help but put on a victorious grin.

"Well then? Master Qi? I told you that you don't get to decide on these things. In fact, you seem to have a prejudice against Yueying!"

Xi Xinyi charming face curved with a sinister smile as she silently looked at Qi Lei.

Qi Lei flung his phone hard on the table and his eyes met with Xi Xinyi's delighted look, appearing a little sly and unfathomable. His handsome darkened face was colored with a freakish smile in the next second. "It looks like you have a pretty good relationship with my old man. You could actually get him to recognize your worth!"

As Qi Lei spoke, he slowly leaned all the way back. "You have quite a reputation. Even the Han family can't bear to look on without helping. It looks like Han Yifeng still cherishes you for old time's sake. You've already come to this extent of a situation, and with your mother's scandal, the fact that he could endure it is really not bad."

When Qi Lei said all of this, his face brimmed with a smile that did not reach his eyes. You could not hear from his tone whether he was being rueful or sarcastic though the smile on his face looked exceptionally conspicuous to Xi Xinyi.

Upon recalling Han Yifeng's indifference and heartlessness, Xi Xinyi was stunned for a moment. Her hands that fell by her side suddenly tightened their grip onto her skirt as her face colored with suppressed anger. "Thank you, Master Qi, for your compliments. I find myself very lucky to be able to get everyone's help too."

Only Xi Xinyi herself would know the amount of sacrifice she had to do for all of this help. The reason she was not willing to give up was that there was no way she could lose to Xi Xiaye! That witch framed her, schemed against her, and made her lose everything. No matter what, she had to get back at her!

"Oh, right, I heard that your sister, Xi Xiaye, and Glory World's Chairman Mu had their wedding abroad. Didn't I hear that you two sisters had a pretty amazing relationship? I remembered when you were eager for me to be your brother-in-law. Now that she's having her wedding, why didn't you go? Also, you could have brought Yueying to Glory World since that's your brother-in-law's company," Qi Lei teased as he looked at Xi Xinyi, his tone sounding sly.

Xi Xinyi's expression turned worse. She bit her lip and coldly looked at Qi Lei. Obviously, she knew that he had said it on purpose to see her miserable.

Everyone knew that the reason for Yueying's crisis this time was Glory World's sudden departure. In fact, they brought with them a huge group of old shareholders and some precious resources, catching Yueying unprepared and exposing all of their financial loopholes. Even the banks came after them.

"Why are you looking all sad at me like that? I was just offering you a suggestion." Qi Lei shrugged innocently. He looked amused and sarcastically at Xi Xinyi. Back then, when the Xi family wanted to send Xi Xiaye into his bed with the goal of combining them with Qi Kai by marriage, he knew all about their intentions. In fact, Xi Xinyi had obscurely mentioned Xi Xiaye to him more than once, especially when she knew that he was interested in Xi Xiaye's identity as the Director of Glory World Corporation.

"Oh, right, I just remembered that you don't seem to have that fantastic a relationship with your sister. She gave up on Han Yifeng, and instead got a gold mine like Mu Yuchen. I think that you don't feel too good about that, huh? They're having their wedding banquet at the Imperial Sky Hotel. Hmm, I wonder if they invited you?"
