Chapter 57 - Become A Servant
57 Become A Servant
Xi Wan laughed. “How old should she be to be considered an adult then? Thirty or forty years old? All of us are adults and we have to take responsibility for our mistakes. If you treat Xi Shu like a child, am I not a child then? If my mother was still alive, wouldn’t Xi Ze and I be her babies then?”
Wang Rui said awkwardly, “I’m at fault for this too. I didn’t educate her well. You can come at me directly if you are angry.”
“Okay.” Xi Wan raised her head. “I can forgive Xi Shu and she doesn’t have to go to prison, so why don’t the two of you go to prison on her behalf?”
“You!” Xi Kang was enraged when he heard this. “Xi Wan, I’m your father! How can you talk to me like that! You even want me to go to prison? To think that I’ve raised an ungrateful scum like you for so many years!”
His voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of the people around him.
“Who is that? Why are they quarrelling at the entrance of the auction?”
“Isn’t that Su Xun and Xi Wan? That man said he’s Xi Wan’s father. Doesn’t that mean he’s from the Xi family?”
“The Xi family still dares to come out and show their face? The internet is already scolding them so badly, yet they still dare to show up so shamelessly?”
“The auction house didn’t send an invitation to the Xi family, did they? Why are they still here then?”
“I think he’s trying to use Xi Wan’s reputation to enter, right? They don’t think that they’re still wealthy, right? If I were Xi Wan, I might have just cut off all ties with the Xi family!”
“Don’t be too certain. Xi Wan’s reputation isn’t very good either. It can only be said that a person who’s not meant to marry into a family will not be fated to do so. It’s other people’s family matters, so we can only watch and we don’t have the right to interfere.”
Xi Kang heard every word discussed by the people around him. He was so angry that his face flushed red with angry as if he would explode like a bomb in the next second.
Xi Wan also heard it and said proudly, “Did you hear that? Everyone isn’t speaking well of you, so don’t embarrass yourself here. Xi Kang, take your mistress with you and get out of my sight.”
She flicked her hair, held Su Xun’s arm, and entered the venue.
“Xi Wan!” Xi Kang could not care less about the gazes of the people around him and followed Xi Wan in.
The security guard at the entrance stopped them and said very politely, “I’m sorry, but you don’t have an invitation. You can’t enter our auction venue.”
“We are Su Xun’s in-laws!” Xi Kang said, “Can’t i enter with my identity?”
“I’m sorry but we only accept invitation cards.” The security guard said politely.
“How do you know I don’t have an invitation card? Are you going to kneel and grovel before me if I take my invitation card out?!” Xi Kang was bluffing as he thought that he would be able to get in by scaring the security guard.
However, the security guard said, “The auction house didn’t send an invitation to the Xi family, so you won’t be able to take out any invitation card at all.”
Xi Kang was dumbfounded and he was pushed aside by the people behind him who complained, “You two old fogeys, you’re here to cause trouble without an invitation? Get lost, don’t waste our time here!”
Xi Kang stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Wang Rui quickly supported him and her tears started to fall again. She cried and said, “What should we do now? Are we just going to wait at the entrance until the auction is over? What if they don’t leave this place? This is our only chance so we can’t miss it!”
“Stop crying!” Xi Kang was annoyed.
Wang Rui was still crying when a voice suddenly came from above her head, “Aren’t you Mrs. Xi?”
Wang Rui looked up and saw Li Yue.
“Mrs. Li!” When Wang Rui saw Li Yue, she felt as if she was her last resort. “Please, please, think of a way to get us in!”
Li Yue was a little embarrassed and said, “If you two don’t have an invitation, it’ll be very difficult for me.”
“I’m begging you!” Wang Rui pleaded again.
“Well, the two of you can pretend to be servants from my family and come in with me.” Li Yue said, “But I can only help you get in and I can’t help you with anything else.”
“I understand, thank you!” Wang Rui thanked her sincerely and followed Li Yue in with Xi Kang.
Although the security guard was surprised, he did not dare to offend someone with an invitation card. So, after all the guests had gone in, he found the organizer and told him about this matter.
The organizer was immediately enraged, “Xi Kang actually dares to come to the auction after causing such a big scandal?! He is really shameless! Call the security guards to drive Xi Kang and his wife out immediately!”
