Yue Hai reminded Xi Xinyi before she could say anything as he glanced at her with a sigh, "I went to visit your mother the other day with your aunt. The two of you are really reckless. It'll be horrible if this reaches your grandfather. He hates infighting."

Yue Hai frowned and sighed again. "I understand your mother very well. I suppose she didn't have a choice. She's been enjoying love and care from everyone around her since she was little, and she could easily get whatever she wanted, yet she could not be with your father. I was against it when she told me she liked your father, Xi Mushan, and now... I'm disappointed. Your grandfather was angry too. Your First Uncle had a lot to deal with. We thought about taking her back in again after the scandal died down, but who would've expected her to be addicted to gambling, and she's disabled now.

"No matter what, you can't treat her like that. She's your mother, Xinyi! Your First Uncle and I are disappointed with you this time!"

Xi Xinyi understood very well what Yue Hai meant. Her expression changed slightly as she gave a quick reply, "I was agitated. That's why my choice of words was harsh, but I really don't know what to do about her. I was on the verge of breaking down some time ago, but she..."

"Both your First Uncle and I didn't tell your grandfather what happened this time, so please don't let us down again. We don't have daughters ourselves and we've always treated you like our daughter. Your mother is our sister. She has done so much for you before, and you..."

"I get it, I get it, Uncle! I'll make sure to reflect on my behavior. I was too reckless this time. Please don't let Grandfather worry about this matter as he's getting old. I'll try my best to do everything that I can. Leave it to me!" Xi Xinyi interrupted before Yue Hai could finish his sentence. Her tone of voice sounded respectful, but she hid the bitterness in her eyes.

Yue Hai nodded. "That's good to hear. By the way, take note of Gu Lingsha and be on good terms with her if possible. She's someone valued highly by Qi Qiming, so it should be advantageous for you to get close to her."

Xi Xinyi took a deep breath and nodded. "Okay, I'll take note of her. Don't worry, Uncle."

"Her relationship with the Qi family brothers is a little special. No matter who's in charge of Qi Kai in the future, Yueying will be fine as long as you keep a good relationship with her. Understand?"

Yue Hai was a sly fox with many years of experience in the business world. Obviously, he was on Qi Qiming's side, and he had been pressured a lot by Wang Qin. He was hoping for Xi Xinyi to have some other alternatives than just himself. Judging from what happened today, Wang Qin probably had something up her sleeve, thus Yue Hai needed to have some plans.

Qi Lei imagined many different scenarios about how they would meet again, but he never expected them to reunite under such circumstances. He thought she would at least reappear with Qi Feng, yet...

She was still as beautiful as ever. The only difference was the faint depressive vibe around her.

By the corridor behind the hall, Qi Lei grabbed Gu Lingsha's slender shoulders as he asked, "How are you, Shasha? Where have you been all these years? I've sent people to look for you for a very very long time. I thought I'd never see you again..."

Gu Lingsha pushed Qi Lei's hand away and put on a bitter smile. "Don't do this, Lei... I'm here now, aren't I?"

"Shasha, what happened back then? Qi Feng and you... Why was Lingtian in the car as well? Why would he...?"
