Chapter 2124
2124 Sorry, Sister Nian Is S
Mother Xie’s expression darkened and she retorted unhappily, “Xinyao is from the research institute’s Level 8 laboratory. I don’t believe that the outsider she found can be better than Xinyao. She insists on acknowledging an outsider and even wants to make a big fuss about it. Heh, it’s best if she doesn’t embarrass herself!”
Father Xie frowned.
On one side was his wife and daughter, and on the other was his sister. It wasn’t appropriate for him to speak on either side, so he said perfunctorily, “We’ll see.”
“Since we’re going to a banquet, we still have to prepare the gifts we need to prepare.” Although Mother Xie felt very uncomfortable, she still put on a dignified and magnanimous attitude. Disdain appeared in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows as she said indifferently, “I remember buying a brooch for Xinyao previously. She didn’t like it and hasn’t used it once. I can give it to someone this time.”
She was talking about a newly rising luxury brand, Seven. This brand had only entered the independent continent market in the past half a year.
The boss behind it was very mysterious.
The brooch Mother Xie was talking about belonged to one of Seven’s high-end series, but it wasn’t the brand’s foundation.
The most impressive thing about Seven was the work of the genius designer, S.
However, S’s work could only be chanced upon by luck.
Mother Xie had used her connections to buy it before. Because S’s work was considered a collectible, once someone bought it, they usually didn’t sell it, so she hadn’t had a chance to buy one yet.
Father Xie subconsciously felt that it was inappropriate. “That brooch…”
“That brooch is worth a million yuan. If it weren’t for the fact that Tingyun thinks highly of her, I really wouldn’t want to let outsiders have it.”
The Xie family was rich even among the three big families in the independent continent.
Mother Xie insisted on giving away a brooch that Xie Xinyao didn’t like. Obviously, she wanted to secretly vent the dissatisfaction in her heart.
Father Xie did not say anything else upon hearing that the brooch was worth a million yuan. He tacitly agreed to her actions and then sighed. “What a pity.”
Mother Xie’s eyes turned cold. She sneered and instructed the servants to go to the storeroom to find the brooch.
The servant quickly went to look for it.
After the servant left, Mother Xie let out a shaky breath and said indignantly, “How long do you think Tingyun can live? Hasn’t she always been in poor health? I’m afraid she’ll be deceived to the end!”
To put it bluntly, the reason why the Xie family could remain calm and attend the filiation banquet now was that they wanted Xie Tingyun to stop at the precipice in the future and hand everything to Xie Xinyao.
If they hadn’t had this idea, they would have lost their cool long ago.
Mother Xie waved her hand and whispered in frustration, “Didn’t Ji Nan bring a Miracle Doctor back? I hope that Miracle Doctor can be of use.”
Father Xie didn’t comment.
Mother Xie thought for a moment and then said to him, “See if you can ask the doctor from Tingyun out later. I want to meet her alone.”
Father Xie looked at her worriedly. “Don’t have any crooked thoughts.”
Xie Tingyun was Nan Tianyi’s eyes. If anyone dared to play tricks under Nan Tianyi’s nose and was discovered by him, they would fall out with them.
“I know. I’m not that stupid.” Mother Xie looked at him reproachfully. She knew what to do. “I just want to see that Miracle Doctor.”
Father Xie thought momentarily and said, “I’ll arrange it.”

After all, Father Xie was from the Xie family.
It was easier for him to get a phone number.
In the evening, Qiao Nian received a message from Father Xie asking if it was convenient for her to meet him. She wanted to ask about Xie Tingyun’s condition.
Qiao Nian hacked into the other party’s phone. In less than a minute, she found out his identity. Then, she replied directly, “I’m not free.”
Right after, she easily blocked his phone number.
