Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 627
Butler Zhong quickly finished the call and came in. His expression was even more somber than after he had called Xiao Linye.
Old Master Xiao frowned, "What’s the matter?"
"Old Master Gui is currently unconscious in the hospital. It seems this issue can’t be dealt with. Mr. Ling has said that the younger generation can’t make decisions on this right now and told you not to hold back."
"Not to hold back?"
"Yes," Butler Zhong nodded.
His forehead was slicked with fine, dense cold sweat. That was easy to say...
But considering the status of the Gui Family in Luozhou and the Ling Family in Hong City, the Xiao Family couldn’t afford to handle this too disgracefully.
This was also why Old Master Xiao had been staying out of it all this time. And now, this mess.
"Can’t handle it, huh!"
He claimed he couldn’t handle it, but who would believe that?
Old Master Xiao’s breathing became rapid once again.
Seeing his condition, Butler Zhong quickly went forward to calm him, "Old Master, please calm down, calm down."
"Call Xiao Linye, that bastard!"
Since the elders refused to get involved, he naturally couldn’t intervene either.
Butler Zhong said, "The Seventh Young Master has already made it very clear on the phone that he can’t handle this matter."
Old Master Xiao’s already troubled breathing! Now hearing these words, his chest heaved once again.
He felt as if his chest was stuffed with cotton.
"What do you mean he can’t handle it? He just doesn’t want to," he said furiously.
He had some understanding of his own son. If Xiao Linye truly wished to intervene, if he had put even half his effort into this, the situation would not have escalated to this point.
Butler Zhong: "..."
Indeed! From the phone call, he too sensed that this was probably Xiao Linye’s intention. And his stance was undoubtedly due to his resentment towards the Old Master over the Ye Yuning situation. These were thoughts Butler Zhong dared not voice in front of the Old Master.
Old Master Xiao, now exceedingly angry, personally made a call to Xiao Linye himself.
The other side picked up quickly, "Hello."
"You’re really not going to handle Ashuo’s situation?"
"Your handiwork? Who has the ability to reverse what you’ve initiated? How did that car accident with the driver happen in the first place? The original evidence has been thoroughly destroyed by you already, hasn’t it?" Xiao Linye said unabashedly, his dissatisfaction evident even through the phone waves.
Was this intentional?
"You, you rascal..."
"If you had the means to destroy that original evidence, then I believe you can handle this matter too. That’s it. I’m hanging up."
After speaking, Xiao Linye on the other end of the line hung up directly.
Old Master Xiao, listening to the BEEP BEEP sound from the phone, felt his breathing uncontrollably grow heavier.
"This rascal, this little rascal, is really going to be the death of me..."
He understood. Xiao Linye was holding a grudge against him over the Ye Yuning issue.
"Is that woman so important to him?"
Butler Zhong: "..."
How should he respond to that?
Old Master Xiao asked, "If she’s so important, then why get a divorce? If he’s so capable, he shouldn’t divorce then, should he?"
The more he spoke, the angrier he became!
And the matter of Ye Yuning and Xiao Linye’s divorce had also taken Old Master Xiao by surprise.
When he first learned of it, he had been thinking that it wouldn’t be easy to separate them, given his son’s strength.
But who could have expected that he would divorce Ye Yuning so easily?
Not only did he divorce, but even the arranged marriage with the Qi Family went through without any hitch on his part. He agreed to it effortlessly.
Everything was so smooth.
Initially, he thought perhaps Xiao Linye didn’t have much affection for Ye Yuning, but now...
"This little rascal, what right does he have to resent me?"
Calling him a rascal again and again showed just how angry Old Master Xiao was with Xiao Linye at this point.
"Didn’t he himself also wish to be rid of her as soon as possible? And now, he goes on to blame me."
Indeed. In Old Master Xiao’s view, Xiao Linye’s quick divorce from Ye Yuning had been a relief.
He believed Xiao Linye might have despised Ye Yuning after learning she was once engaged to Xiao Shuo. But what was all this really about now?
"Blaming me for their affairs, when have I ever made decisions for them?"
Saying this stirred even more anger in Old Master Xiao. For anything that wasn’t his decision, he ended up being blamed when something went wrong. Such injustice he faced.
Seeing Old Master Xiao in such a state, Butler Zhong sighed and said, "On the matter of Miss Ye, you indeed went too far."
Old Master Xiao: "..."
Upon hearing those words, he fell silent.
Without a doubt, he had regretted his actions since Ye Yuning left Upper City. Now, he also knew that Ye Yuning had settled in Turanxi, even deciding to lay down roots there. Thinking about it, it seemed that his actions towards her at the time were somewhat unnecessary. Not only unnecessary, but they also caused the bond between him and his Seventh Son to shatter!
Seeing that he didn’t respond, Butler Zhong continued with another sigh, "Now that the Third Young Master’s matter is not being handled by the Seventh Young Master, what do you plan on doing?"
Not mentioning Xiao Shuo would have been better. Upon mentioning Xiao Shuo, Old Master Xiao felt utterly overwhelmed.
What to do? He never anticipated Gui Xingli and Ling Yan would have such loyalty and deep feelings towards Ye Yuning. He hadn’t even done that much to Ye Yuning, and they were already attacking him like ferocious wolves. If things really came to a head, wouldn’t the two of them seek him out for a fight to the death?
Now Old Master Xiao even felt fortunate that his actions towards Ye Yuning had not led to serious consequences. Otherwise, if it had gone any further, the consequences would indeed be unimaginable.
