Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 571 - 564: Her Hatred (Part 8)

The Xia family actually blocked Cheng Gang inside the company demanding an explanation?

Bai Yiran raised her eyebrows, a trace of coldness in her eyes. What a family asking for trouble, she hadn’t gone after Xia Lian already, considering Cheng Shishi’s sake. Moreover, Xia Lian hadn’t divorced Cheng Gang yet; she still held the title of her aunt, and indeed she had watched her grow up. There’s been all these years of affection too.

However, in the end, Grandma’s death has an inescapable connection to Xia Lian. Bai Yiran could refrain from troubling her, which was already her utmost kindness.

And yet, the Xia family still has the face to demand justification?

Li Sha’s driving trajectory was still heading towards Lou Jing’s house, and Bai Yiran’s lips tensed, "Li Sha, pull the car over to the side first."

"Okay." Li Sha obediently pulled the car to the side of the road.

Bai Yiran refocused her attention on the phone, "Why did she commit suicide?"

Xia Lian wouldn’t commit suicide for no reason. Bai Yiran didn’t believe she blamed herself for Grandma’s death so much that she wanted to die. If she were that fragile, she should have gone along when she heard the news of Cheng Shishi’s death.

At this moment, Bai Yiran thought that if, back then, Xia Lian had gone with Cheng Shishi, it would have been better. Maybe then Grandma wouldn’t have died. At the very least, Xia Lian would still be her aunt.

Cheng Gang’s voice was hesitant. Discussing such matters with his niece didn’t seem appropriate, but at this point, the only person he could turn to was Bai Yiran.

"I want to divorce her, but she disagrees."

Thinking that his mother fell ill and died because of Xia Lian, Cheng Gang couldn’t bear living with her anymore, especially now that Cheng Shishi is no longer there between them. Cheng Gang didn’t want to face Xia Lian’s mournful face every day.

His marriage had hit a dead end—there was no longer a way where a compromise from either side could solve the problem.

Bai Yiran wasn’t surprised at this statement. Previously, when the two of them were fighting for a divorce, Xia Lian was also dramatizing with suicide attempts for her life.

Regarding her uncle’s marriage, Bai Yiran didn’t want to interfere and had no right to do so. However, it was unreasonable for the Xia family to cause a scene at her uncle’s company due to the couple’s divorce situation.

Bai Yiran knew the Xia family, particularly snobbish. When Xia Lian married into the Cheng family, and during the initial years when the Cheng family was struggling, they acted as if they didn’t have a daughter named Xia Lian, ignoring her. Yet during matters or holidays, they would shamelessly ask for money.

With such in-laws, Xia Lian rarely dealt with them, and over time, the relationship between the Xia family and the Cheng family became tense.

Until later, after learning from Xia Lian that Bai Yiran had married Leng Yichen, and Cheng Gang’s position was advancing higher, soon promoted to vice president.

The Xia family started clinging, using emotional ties with Xia Lian. Wasn’t the goal their brother?

The age gap between Xia Lian and her brother was quite large. But her brother was already in his thirties, and Xia Lian was soft-hearted. The money for her brother’s marriage basically came from her assistance, and the house was gifted by Leng Yichen. The Xia family tasted the benefits and started intensifying their demands, begging Xia Lian to have Leng Yichen arrange a job for her brother at Huamei International. Since her brother’s education wasn’t very high, he was simply not qualified to enter Huamei International. Xia Lian, too embarrassed, didn’t dare bring it up.

Because of this, the Xia family blamed Xia Lian quite a bit. In the end, it was Cheng Gang who arranged a position for her brother at his company.

Due to this, the Xia family could so effortlessly enter the company and corner Cheng Gang in his office.

"Uncle, did you call the police? At a time like this, there’s no need to talk to the Xia family. If they have the nerve to cause trouble, just call the police!"

Dealing with such a greedy family, calling the police is the most correct choice.

Cheng Gang was silent for a while before speaking, "I can’t call the police."

"Why not?"

"...They have evidence of my infidelity during marriage..."
