Chapter 1163: Tong Rao and Yan Xi

Editor: Henyee Translations

After discovering Qin Shuzhen’s actions, Family Head Ye divorced her.

Ye Hanchen was disappointed but felt too ashamed to face the Xiao brothers. He applied for a transfer to the frontier fortress to defend the country.

Ye Qingzi was shocked to learn that her mother had been the one who used her to harm Tong Wan. She went to her father, Family Head Ye, pleading for leniency, but the elders of the Ye family refused to acknowledge her as their matriarch. Family Head Ye remained firm in his decision to divorce Qin Shuzhen.

With her father cold and her brother avoiding her, Ye Qingzi turned to her grandfather, Old Master Qin, for help. However, he informed her that he had relinquished his power and was unable to assist her.

Next, she sought out Qin Xian and Qin Shuling, who were now in charge of the Qin family. Unfortunately, they were unwilling to help her and refused to become enemies with the Xiao family over Qin Shuzhen.

...

Ultimately, Family Head Ye sent Ye Qingzi overseas.

Tong Wan sued Qin Shuzhen for her actions against her and Tong Rao, which had violated the law. Given the multiple lives lost in the plane crash, Qin Shuzhen was sentenced to death.

After resolving the matter with Qin Shuzhen, Tong Wan went to the Tong family to find Tong Rao.

Ever since she was expelled from the Tong family and married into the Xiao family, Tong Wan had not set foot in the Tong Family Manor for over twenty years.

When she arrived to find Tong Rao, she discovered her checking Yan Xi’s homework.

After Yan Xi was brought back to the Tong family, Tong Rao allowed her to stay in the entertainment industry, encouraging her to pursue her dreams. However, she was also grooming Yan Xi to be her successor, ensuring she kept up with her necessary studies.

Yan Xi felt overwhelmed but knew she couldn’t skip class, so she had to force herself to learn slowly. She had never been this dedicated while preparing for the College Entrance Examination.

Because Gu Yang was the ideal successor, Tong Rao held Yan Xi to exceptionally high standards. However, Yan Xi often claimed she couldn’t meet them.

She would shamelessly hug Tong Rao’s arm and shower her with sweet words, causing Tong Rao to gradually lower her expectations.

Yan Xi realized that Tong Rao’s strictness had made it rare for anyone to openly curry favor with her, and she enjoyed the attention. As a result, she became bolder and more comfortable around Tong Rao.

At that moment, while checking Yan Xi’s financial management homework, Tong Rao wore a look of disdain. “Did a dog write this? I’ll arrange for a calligraphy teacher to come over later so you can practice your writing.”

Yan Xi was accustomed to her mother’s critical tone. She smiled and replied, “Mother, is there anything wrong with the other parts? If not, you should take a look at your new television drama…”

Tong Rao glanced at her. “You want to act?”

Yan Xi nodded. She had long been interested in this drama and had even mentioned to her manager a few times that she wanted to audition for a role. However, she never expected her mother to become the biggest investor shortly after.

Because of this opportunity, she had been exceptionally obedient around Tong Rao, rarely arguing with her.

Tong Rao glanced at the butler beside her. Understanding the cue, the butler retrieved a stack of books about half a meter tall. “After you read these, we’ll conduct a spot check at the beginning of next month.”

Wasn’t the beginning of next month two weeks later?

Yan Xi looked at the thick book and felt sleepy. She smiled awkwardly. “I suddenly feel that it’s not good to get in through the easiest way…”

Tong Rao: “If you pass the test, you can choose the role.”

Yan Xi blinked. “Including the first female lead?”

With her current status in the entertainment industry, she actually could not get the female lead role in this drama. She had originally planned to interview the third female lead.

Tong Rao: “Including the first female lead.”

Yan Xi took a deep breath and took the book from the butler. “Okay, I can do it!”

“Didn’t you say you wouldn’t use the easiest way?”

Yan Xi smiled. “What’s the difference between the hard way and the back way? We don’t let outsiders have the benefits. Mother, don’t you think you’re flattering me? You might as well let me have it.”

At this moment, the security guard outside reported, “Family Head, Madam Xiao is here.”

“Tongwan? Let her in.”
