Chapter 338 Negotiations with the old lady, defeat
Although the call was connected, no one answered the call. After ringing for a while, Xu Nanxing hung up.
She picked up the walking stick next to her and walked to the window. She fell into deep thought.
Xuan Liheng quickly came to the front hall.
After waiting for a while, the old lady came back.
When Xuan Liheng saw the old lady coming back, he immediately stood up from the sofa.
Perhaps he was too angry, or perhaps too anxious, Xuan Liheng knocked over the cup next to him.
The cup fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
The old lady took one look, frowned, and shouted sternly: "The earl candidate should be steady, what do you look like now!"
Xuan Liheng didn't want to listen to the old lady's scolding, and came to her in a few steps: "Why do you arrange for your cousin to live in that kind of place? You are looking down on her!"
The old lady frowned deeper and said with an ugly face: "Do you still see me as a grandma in your eyes? Ax, you are too presumptuous."
Xuan Liheng is the Chinese name Aix gave himself. Now that he hears the old lady calling him that, he regrets his earlier impulse.
But the top priority was to move Xu Nanxing to another place, so Xuan Liheng quickly calmed down.
The tone is no longer as strong as before: "I heard that you want the Feng family to pick up my cousin. Is this true?"
With the help of the servant, the old lady sat back on the sofa, showing no anger. Her sharp eyes fell on Xuan Liheng: "This is not your business."
In fact, Xuan Liheng was a little timid when facing the old lady alone.
Among the grandchildren, I am not favored. I mustered up the courage to come here today, but...
The old lady's look still sent shivers down his spine.
"If you let the Feng family take my cousin away rashly, my aunt will be sad."
Xuan Liheng said while looking at the old lady carefully.
Sure enough, the old lady frowned even more when she heard her mention her aunt.
He seemed to be thinking about something.
Seeing this, Xuan Liheng hurriedly came to sit next to the old lady and said, "Grandma, my cousin is not in good health right now and she needs someone to take care of her. If I send her back to the Feng family like this, I'm afraid that the Feng family won't be able to take care of my cousin."
The old lady sighed.
"I don't like the Feng family, but that doesn't mean I want to harm her. After all, she also has your aunt's blood in her body, but... she must return to the Feng family and fulfill her obligations."
obligation?
Xuan Liheng looked confused.
Could it be...
Is there anything you don't know about this?
What on earth is the old lady planning?
What role does the cousin play in this?
One question after another emerged in Xuan Liheng's mind.
"Is it your decision to send it back to Feng's family?"
The old lady glanced at him.
"You seem to have become stupid after returning to Yecheng. This will not be conducive to your competition for the earl."
Xuan Liheng felt that there was something in the old lady's words, but for a moment, he was not sure what it meant.
In order to avoid being scolded by the old lady, he chose to remain silent.
After drinking a cup of tea, the old lady slowly spoke: "It was the Feng family who learned that she had come to City F and asked to take her back to the Feng family."
The Feng family takes the initiative?
Xuan Liheng looked surprised.
He suddenly felt that the development of things seemed to be far more complicated than he imagined.
The Feng family has become the enemy of the Ellis family in country F. This is something everyone knows.
At this time, I asked to take my cousin back, and there was a reason.
What on earth are they planning?
Will Feng Jiayu treat his cousin well?
Snap!
The old lady put the tea cup on the table, and her soft voice pulled Xuan Liheng out of his thoughts.
The old lady looked at him with a meaningful expression: "Aix, you have to know that if you want to have a place in the Ellis family, you must be calm and not be emotional. Even when you are dealing with relatives, you must maintain a good temper.
"
The old lady made a pun.
Xuan Liheng was slightly startled.
After a while, I finally understood what the old lady meant, but...
He said calmly: "I just fell in love with my cousin, and she is very smart. If she is a boy, I believe that the leader of the Ellis family must be her."
Hearing Xuan Liheng's determined tone, the old lady became interested.
That girl is so courageous?
Xuan Liheng smiled and said: "Grandma, I believe that if you can give my cousin a chance to get along with you, you will definitely like this granddaughter."
The old lady just frowned slightly and did not really acknowledge Xu Nanxing's intention.
"Grandma, I..."
Xuan Liheng also wanted to persuade the old lady to change her mind, but the sharp eyes of the old lady made him frightened, and he quickly swallowed his words.
"Don't have any more contact with her."
In just one sentence, the old lady's attitude was already expressed.
Xuan Liheng sighed.
Had to leave.
After walking out of the front hall, he went to the backyard again, but this time, he was stopped directly by the bodyguard.
Due to his grandma's order, he did not dare to break in easily, so he had to tell Mary to take good care of Xu Nanxing before leaving.
Does aunt know that my cousin is ‘imprisoned’ here by grandma?
Do you want to ask your aunt for information?
Xuan Liheng took out his phone and prepared to call his aunt, but...
In the end he hesitated.
If grandma finds out that she secretly informed her aunt, the count's position will be completely far away from her.
