Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 538

Tang Xi and Xia Andai had already arrived at the restaurant.

After finishing the call from Ye Yuning, Tang Xi’s face was filled with worry. She asked Xia Andai, "Do you think Ningning will be able to escape from under the watchful eyes of Seventh Master Xiao tonight?"

Xia Andai’s expression darkened. "I always feel that something is off."

"What do you mean?" Hearing Xia Andai say this, Tang Xi grew even more tense. Please, let there be nothing wrong! Usually, when Xia Andai spoke like this, it meant they might have overlooked something. Such an oversight could be fatal for them.

However, Xia Andai shook her head. "I can’t quite recall what, I just feel something’s off."

"Oh, please don’t say that, my heart can’t take it," Tang Xi said, waving her hand. Her heart truly clenched at that moment. If there really was something amiss, it would be terrifying...

Xia Andai glanced at her, then sneered coldly, "Shouldn’t you be more worried about yourself right now?"

Tang Xi was speechless. It was better not to think about her own situation, but now that it was brought up, her composure completely crumbled! What on earth was happening? How had things turned out like this?

"Stop talking! It’s terribly unlucky! I was so blind back then!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Andai scoffed. "Now you realize you were blind? Those who tried to warn you back then didn’t fare well for it."

Tang Xi fell silent again. Seriously, can we not talk about the past!

Indeed, the one involved is always the most confused. Back then, whether it was Ye Yuning, Xia Andai, or Yan Jun, they all said Jiang Bo was no good for her and that he wasn’t worthy of her. But at the time, she was so caught up in Jiang Bo’s sweet talk, completely ignoring the advice from those around her. Indeed, as Xia Andai had once sharply put it: "Like breeds like." Given the character of Jiang Bo’s parents, how good could he possibly be? It’s always clearer from the outside, and she... she hadn’t seen anything clearly at all. In the end, not only did she invest so much, but when she finally extricated herself, she was utterly disgraced.

"Just stop talking!"

"You were just love-blind back then," Xia Andai said bluntly.

Tang Xi retorted, "Enough, stop talking about me! What about Ningning? What’s your take on her this time?"

When Ye Yuning was mentioned, Xia Andai’s expression grew even darker. "Her, you ask..." Glancing at Tang Xi, she said, "She has much better judgment than you."

Tang Xi was taken aback. Is my judgment really that poor? But speaking of Ye Yuning, her judgment *was* indeed good. Not knowing Seventh Master Xiao’s true identity, she had spotted such an exceptional man at a glance; she certainly was capable. Of course, if it had been *me* who provoked Seventh Master Xiao, *I* definitely wouldn’t have dared! If *I* had known from the start, no matter how excellent Xiao Linye was, *I* wouldn’t have gotten involved with him. But now, what Yuning faced was not something so easily overcome...

Thinking of this, Tang Xi subconsciously looked at Xia Andai. "Do you think she’ll be able to successfully break free this time?"

Xia Andai remained silent for a moment.

"Or," Tang Xi continued, "will the Xiao Family easily accept her?" She asked directly. Either Yuning divorces Seventh Master Xiao—but he isn’t an easy character to deal with, so whether she could make a clean break was uncertain. As for the Xiao Family, that was Tang Xi’s biggest worry right now. If things couldn’t be settled with the Xiao Family, it would be difficult for Yuning and Seventh Master Xiao to have a future together.

Xia Andai’s thoughts mirrored hers, and she viewed the situation even more gravely. Then, Xia Andai sighed. "The Xiao Family will never accept her!"

Tang Xi was silent. Her expression flickered with surprise for a moment, but then she relaxed, as if coming to terms with it.

Xia Andai continued, "As for how she and Seventh Master Xiao will end up, who knows. After all, Seventh Master Xiao isn’t someone the Xiao Family can easily influence."

Tang Xi was quiet for a moment. Exactly! Old Master Xiao had been authoritative his entire life, yet he had always found it difficult to control this son, born so late in his life.

"What about you and Jiang Bo? What do you plan to do?" Xia Andai asked.

Tang Xi replied, "I’m not even sure what’s happening right now. First, I’ll send the sample overseas for testing." She wouldn’t trust any local report. After all, Jiang Bo had a mother like that. With someone like her pulling strings in the background, what wouldn’t she be capable of doing? During her marriage to Jiang Bo, his mother had constantly schemed to get money from her. Now that she and Jiang Bo were divorced, she had effectively cut off their main source of income! When they divorced, because Jiang Bo was the one at fault, he had received very little... She had even managed to reclaim most of that later through other means! If they had just behaved themselves and lived sensibly, that money would have been enough for them for the rest of their lives. It’s just that Zhao Li, that woman, was too adept at squandering money and causing trouble!

"You don’t need to indulge them. After all, your career is in a transitional phase now, and it doesn’t demand such a strict personal reputation."

Tang Xi nodded. "Yes, I know." That was also why she had dared to firmly reject Jiang Bo at the café! When she divorced Jiang Bo, she had already realized the extent of that mother and son’s shamelessness! So, she had long ago discreetly shifted much of her business overseas...
