Chapter 1094: This Must Not Be Allowed to Succeed

Old Xue and his son let out a deep sigh: "Alright, we’ve reached this point, there’s no other way out."

The man understood clearly what this meant: "Dad, unless it’s absolutely necessary, we must not take that road."

Mr. Xue shook his head with a bitter smile: "I’m already so old, do I still have to be dragged in and humiliated?"

The man said painfully: "Dad, you’re confused."

Mr. Xue looked at his second son across from him: "Yuhu, the Xue Family is entrusted to you, I know your Big Brother can’t handle this burden."

Xinyan heard this and realized who was inside; it was Xue Yuhu, the second uncle of Xue Hongjuan from the Xue Family.

It seemed Xue Hongjuan’s father was not favored by the old man.

Before Xue Yuhu could respond, Mr. Xue said: "There’s no need to make excuses, time is tight, besides what’s openly available in the house, everything else is in the room next door, distribute it as you see fit.

I’m afraid they will come over before noon today."

He constantly felt more uneasy, hoping they would divide the things quickly and leave the old house, and once the newspaper announcing the severance of relations was out tomorrow, he would fear nothing.

Xinyan understood these words, indicating he intended to seek death—how wishful thinking.

Sever relations? No way will you get what you want.

The Gu Family suffered so much hardship, you think a severance application can save your descendants from accountability—dream on.

Xue Yuhu left the study and went to the room next door.

When Mr. Xue saw his son leave, he got up and opened the secret compartment behind the bookshelf, took out some items, and then took a large copper basin from under the table beside him.

Xinyan instantly understood what Mr. Xue intended to do.

Before the matchstick that Mr. Xue lit could touch the paper he picked up, he sensed something was wrong behind him, but as soon as he intended to turn around, Xinyan struck him unconscious.

She didn’t bother to look at what those things were, collected everything including the copper basin into the space.

Seizing the chance, she operated the mechanism to enter the secret room, where there were still four small boxes, which she also stored in the space.

After restoring everything to its original state, she retrieved a pill she made from the space and stuffed it directly into Mr. Xue’s mouth, accounting death with complete avoidance—don’t even think about it.

After finishing all this, hearing the door next door opening, she quickly returned behind the screen and entered the space.

Then she saw Xue Yuhu come in, and after rounding the screen: "Dad, what happened to you, somebody come here quick."

Someone rushed in: "Second Master, what happened here?"

Xue Yuhu hurriedly said: "Come over and help me."

The newcomer finally noticed the old man’s condition: "I’ll carry him, I’ll carry him."

The sound of footsteps faded into the distance, Xinyan emerged from the space, went directly into the room next door, and saw that the items Mr. Xue struggled to bring back yesterday had been divided.

Xinyan didn’t examine them closely, just put them all into the space.

After finishing, seeing no one was in the yard, she swaggered out of the Xue Family.

Just as she walked out, she saw He Jinxuan jump down from a tree by the courtyard wall: "All done?"

Luckily she had made preparations earlier, slipping a small cloth bag from the next room for cover, Xinyan gave a light ’um’: "Let’s go."

The car drove directly back to the suburban house.

Upon entering the courtyard, they saw Han Jingchen under the eaves watching them: "You’re back, come on in."

Xinyan entered the house and placed the package on the ground: "Dad, these are the items I saved from Mr. Xue, he was about to destroy them at the time."

Before they could sit down, Gu Wanqing rushed out from the bedroom: "Yanyan, you’re back."

Rushing to Xinyan’s side, she put her hands on Xinyan’s shoulders, looked her over several times, continuously feeling her up and down: "How could you be so bold, going off without a word, what if something happened, what would we do?"

After speaking, she glared at He Jinxuan: "You too, why didn’t you stop her, instead engaging in her nonsense?"

He Jinxuan glanced at Xinyan: "It was indeed my fault, I shouldn’t have taken her, but the result isn’t bad. If I’m not mistaken, the contents in here are enough to topple those people."

Everyone’s eyes turned to the package on the ground—the Gu Family had waited too long for this.

Xinyan took the opportunity to say: "I’m also quite curious, since time was tight, I didn’t manage to see what it contained."

Speaking, she settled Gu Wanqing on the sofa and took out the contents of the package.

When Han Jingchen saw what was inside, he stood up immediately: "Yanyan, these things are very important."

Xinyan understood Han Jingchen’s implication: "Then we should hand them over."

She recalled Mr. Xue’s words: "Additionally, Mr. Xue probably wants to announce severing ties with his descendants to protect the family—it cannot happen."
