Zhan Jiayin clenched her teeth and asked, “What do you plan to do?”
At that moment, Zhan Jiayin felt like she understood what was going on. From the beginning, Li Xiao hadn’t been targeting Ren Shaotang. She had been targeting Zhan Jiayin.
Li Xiao lightly smiled. “I just want to take back what rightfully belongs to me. I’m the eldest miss of the Li family. How can my assets be inferior to two illegitimate children?”
The word ‘illegitimate children’ rang in Zhan Jiayin’s ears, making her want to rip off Li Xiao’s mouth. Blood rushed to her brain, leaving her mind completely blank.
Li Xiao stared at Zhan Jiayin’s humiliated expression and found it to be quite entertaining. Zhan Jiayin was the mistress who gave birth to two illegitimate children, so why was she upset when people just stated the facts?
“It won’t matter if I drag out the process. My little sister, Qianfei, is so lucky and will definitely bring our family prosperity and double our family assets. When that happens, I’ll be able to get even more.”
According to Li Xiao’s investigation, Li Qianfei was so spectacular that she was practically a walking koi. Whenever she bought stocks, she always gained money. Li Xiao had never seen her extraordinary sister in person, so she didn’t know all the details about Li Qianfei’s situation.
It wasn’t easy for animals to become demons, and demons wouldn’t be foolish enough to reincarnate into an adult human. There must be a reason behind Li Qianfei’s good luck.
Li Xiao knew that the heavens were fair. One person couldn’t be lucky their entire life. You’d have to return the favor sooner or later.
Zhan Jiayin was still reluctant. But when she heard this, she thought that it’d be more beneficial to give Li Xiao a share of the family fortune. Li Xiao had no intention of respecting her and didn’t view Qianfei or Qianxing her family. On the contrary, Li Xiao despised their lowly status. Zhan Jiayin would allow Li Xiao to take advantage of her daughter’s good luck only over her dead body.
Anyways, even if Li Xiao took her share of the fortune, she’d blow it all away to satisfy her lavish spending habits.
Zhan Jiayin had acted on impulse, and now, Li Xiao had a grip on her. There didn’t seem to be an alternative at the moment.
Raising her head, Zhan Jiayin felt reinvigorated. She plastered her trademark gentle smile on her face. “You’re already old enough. Your share of the fortune was always going to be given to you.”
Li Xiao sneered at her response. Last year, at her eighteenth birthday party, Li Nanjue and Xu Manqin had been fighting with each other. They were no different than enemies. Hence, there was no party, gifts, or feast for Li Xiao.
Once Li Xiao solidified her hands on her share, she wouldn’t have to stick around these people anymore. However, if she asked Li Nanjue directly for her share, he would think that she had ill-intentions and would refuse to give it to her. But if she went through Zhan Jiayin, things would be easier.
She played the audio recorder in her hands.
These recording pens could be sold for high prices. Ren Shaotang loved Zhan Jiayin so deeply that he would be willing to sabotage her greatest competitor.
