Chapter 998
Old Mr. Wen squinted his eyes and met Lan Xiao’s gaze.
“You know Mu Chu’s identity. He might be the future president. As for the position of Madam President, it had always been a position that could only be secured by the daughter of a powerful family. If you don’t have a powerful family supporting you, then you won’t be able to sit in that position for long. Perhaps you should know what happened to Mu Chu’s mother back then. Her tragedy is a living example, Yingluo.”
It would have been fine if old Mr. Wen had not mentioned this. Once he did, Lan Xiao felt a little angry.
This old man, he actually brought up Wen Muchu’s mother.
She had never expected that this old man would actually blame the mistake of the past on a woman.
What kind of logic is this?
How could such a thing happen back then because a woman didn’t have a strong background?
Instead, she felt that the person who had caused all of this was the president, Wen zhunhuai, who had not been able to protect his wife and child.
Even if the Wen family managed to reach the peak, they would not be able to protect their descendants. Wasn’t this the tragedy of a family?
This old man actually didn’t know how to reflect on himself, and instead blamed his mistakes on the most innocent people?
The fire in Lan Xiao’s heart suddenly burst out.
It was because of Wen Muchu that she had to hold back her temper and talk to this old man for so long.
I didn’t expect this old man to be so thick-skinned, to actually dare to mention Wen Muchu’s mother?
Lan Xiao’s expression immediately darkened.
Biting her lip, she looked at old Mr. Wen and said, word by word.
“Hehe, so what? Just because the Wen family and the presidential palace couldn’t protect their descendants, you’re blaming everything on the innocent victims? Old Mr. Wen, why don’t you think about it? if the Wen family was powerful enough back then, Chuchu wouldn’t have been taken away the moment she was born. Isn’t it all because you’re not strong enough and gave others an opportunity?”
“It’s you who are not capable, but in the end, you push the wrong to others? Old Mr. Wen, it’s really eye-opening for you to have such an understanding. I’m extremely impressed. If you can’t even protect your own family, then you should reflect on yourself. What’s the point of being the president, Yingluo?”
Old Mr. Wen’s face turned livid with anger and he glared at Lan Xiao.
“You little girl, how dare you talk to me like this?”
All these years, due to the rise in his status, no one dared to speak to old Mr. Wen in such a manner.
Which one of them didn’t surround him, flatter him, and flatter him?
He had thought that after he revealed his identity, this little girl would at least please him, obey Him, not make him angry, and not dare to disobey him.
He didn’t expect this girl to be so bold.
She said that all of this happened because the Wen family was incompetent?
He Yingluo was preposterous, he was simply going to die of anger.
“You stinky girl, no matter what, I’m going to say this today. “Unless I’m dead, don’t even think about entering the Wen family in the future!” Old Mr. Wen hollered in exasperation.
Lan Xiao was also furious. She felt that this old man was really unreasonable and extremely rude.
His three views were strange to the extreme, and his temper was also ignited.
Hur hur hur doesn’t want me to enter the Wen family?
She wanted him to slap her in the face one day and personally welcome her in.
Lan Xiao sneered and got out of the car.
The moment she closed the car door, she flashed a cold smile at old Mr. Wen.
“Do you think that Chuchu will marry another woman other than me? Let’s just wait and see, Yingluo.”
After saying this, Lan Xiao did not give old Mr. Wen any chance to refute and slammed the car door shut.
Old Mr. Wen sat there and was about to explode from anger.
He clutched his walking stick and growled in a low voice.
“This is too much. This little girl is too arrogant. Is she trying to anger me to death?”
Old Mr. Wen was so infuriated that he gradually found it difficult to breathe.
He leaned back in his seat and raised his hand to his chest.
The chauffeur in front saw that something was wrong with his expression and quickly asked worriedly, ” “Old man, what’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Old Mr. Wen felt his vision turning dark.
His brain was buzzing-
He was so angry, he was so angry.
This little girl, how could she be so arrogant?
As long as he was alive, he would never allow his grandson to be with such a woman.
......
Lan Xiao was in a much better mood after she was done with old Mr. Wen.
She carried her school bag and took a car to Jin Shiyuan jewelry store.
She had asked Tiger to renovate the jewelry store.
The name of the jewelry shop had also changed from Jin Shiyuan to blue jade Pavilion.
Now that the jewelry store was closed for business, they had been urgently recruiting staff.
When Lan Xiao arrived, the renovation master was working on the simple Chinese style decoration according to Lan Xiao’s instructions.
Tiger was monitoring the renovation work.
When he saw Lan Xiao, he quickly came up to him.
Lan Xiao listened to some arrangements and gave some instructions before leaving the jewelry store.
Unexpectedly, she suddenly ran into the young man called Zong Yi.
When Zong Yi saw her, he nodded slightly to her and greeted her.
Tiger quickly stepped forward and said to Lan Xiao, ” “Oh, by the way, Ms. LAN, this Mr. Zong wants to apply for the position of an appraiser in our shop. Since he’s an employee of the front store, I didn’t dare to make any decisions on my own. So, when I heard that you were coming, I called him over.”
Lan Xiao’s gaze secretly sized up Zong Yi.
She realized that the clothes he was wearing today were even more worn out than the clothes she had seen that day.
A trace of gloominess flashed across her eyes.
The clothes that this man was wearing that day were a luxury brand.
As it was a small group, many people did not know the value of the clothes.
And she had only seen that brand by chance.
That set of clothes was worth at least five figures.
Would a person who was wearing a set of clothes that cost five figures be an ordinary worker?
The answer was obviously No.
And today, this person, whether on purpose or not, was actually wearing a set of clothes that couldn’t be more ordinary and worn out.
Lan Xiao’s intuition told him that this man was not as simple as he looked.
“I’m sorry, this shop is being readjusted. We don’t plan to hire the previous staff.” Lan Xiao thought for a moment and rejected her tactfully.
This man’s background was unknown, and she didn’t want to add too much trouble, so rejecting him was the most convenient way.
After Lan Xiao finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave.
However, Zong Yi took a step forward and blocked Lan Xiao’s path.
