After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 143 - : Really Thick-skinned
Chapter 143 -143: Really Thick-skinned
Xia Lan couldn’t care less about Xia Chuyi’s reaction and continued on her own: “Think about it, why did we have conflicts in the past? Wasn’t it all because the main branch of the Xia Family was biased?”
“Now, not only have you fallen out with the main branch, but you’ve also plotted and caused them chaos, which is truly satisfying!”
“You don’t know, that letter of appointment, in the end, nobody got their hands on it!”
“Xia Chengzu and Xia Mei, those two fools, destroyed the letter of appointment while fighting over it!”
As she spoke, Xia Lan’s face immediately lit up with schadenfreude.
“Now, nobody can take the position!”
“Because of this, Xia Mei spends every day at home smashing bowls and tables, cursing at the grandparents for being unfairly biased and shouting at my elder uncle and elder aunt for favoring sons over daughters.”
Perhaps Xia Lan hadn’t noticed that her spiteful tone made her bride-made-up face look incredibly ferocious.
To be honest, when hearing of all the Xia Family’s antics, Xia Chuyi felt no ripples in her heart.
Having already left the Xia Family, she didn’t want to pay too much attention to anything related to them.
“Their issues have nothing to do with me, I haven’t orchestrated anything,” Xia Chuyi innocently said.
She certainly didn’t want to play by Xia Lan’s script.
Xia Lan was taken aback at first, then chuckled.
Clearly, Xia Lan didn’t believe her.
Xia Lan, thinking that speaking ill of the Xia Family would provoke Xia Chuyi’s solidarity, continued: “That prodigal son Xia Chengzu, blames the family for not securing the appointment letter for him and not helping him salvage the job—all because they were incompetent.”
“That idiot, believing he was destined for great things, took a sum of money from our grandparents and went into the city, claiming he was going to do something big, huh, he didn’t even come back for the New Year.”
At this point, Xia Lan paused, her eyes revealing resentment.
“When they prepared my dowry before, the grandparents claimed they had no money, but in the blink of an eye, they gave Xia Chengzu hundreds to splurge on starting a business!”
Xia Lan leaned in, attempting to take Xia Chuyi’s hand.
“Chuyi, look at the people from the main branch, how biased and shameless they are!”
“You did the absolutely right thing by leaving the Xia Family!”
“Now, I am about to get married and leave, and soon I won’t be part of the Xia Family anymore, no longer under the oppression and exploitation of the main branch.”
“As someone else who has been bullied by the main branch of the Xia Family, let’s not hold grudges over the past and be on good terms again.”
In the end, Xia Lan squeezed out a full-faced smile, grabbing hold of Xia Chuyi: “Now that we’ve made up, why don’t you bring your uncle’s family and come to my wedding, to share in my happiness?”

She spoke as if she were magnanimous.
Xia Chuyi let out a cold laugh, shook her off violently, and her face darkened, her eyes deep and shadowed.
“What’s wrong, Chuyi, are you still angry with your sister?” Xia Lan pretended not to see her discontent and continued with a fake smile.
Shaking her head, Xia Chuyi inwardly clicked her tongue.
Where on earth did Xia Lan get the courage to erase all the past with a single stroke?
In her past life, the Xia Family sinned against her by being unsympathetic, kicking her while she was down, planning to sell her to a crippled widower as his bride.
And Xia Lan, she was the ringleader behind her loss of chastity, the true mastermind behind a series of tragedies that followed her!
In this life, she had avoided the tarnishing of her reputation and left the Xia Family; it could be said that the Xia Family had lost any control over her future.
And what Xia Lan did, in two lifetimes, had not changed.
Was this person, who’d repeatedly schemed against her, really talking about making amends?
Xia Lan, oh Xia Lan, just how thick is your skin!
