"What! The hidden House Pi works for Lin Yi?! " Qinlin wasn't a stranger to Lin Yi's name- Lingshan and Mengyao had both mentioned him back in the police station, but she never would've thought that the hidden House Pi worked for Lin Yi!
Wasn't the hidden House Pi the support of the Xiao family? How did they become Lin Yi's men? With that, Wang Xinyan's marriage would be settled, wouldn't it? Qinlin let out a breath of relief at the thought!
"En … Back then, I was saved by the hidden House Pi's Elder Pi, but I didn't tell you or dad because I wanted to keep it a secret …" Xinyan couldn't hide it anymore- she needed to take out some chips for her own happiness.
"Is that so … I see!" Xiao Qinlin sighed and said, "Okay, I'll call your uncle now and tell him about the situation!"
"Okay, thank you mom …" Xinyan knew that things were going to work out, and she was happy.
But, Qinlin's prediction seemed to be a bit off. After she told Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben about it, they were shocked for a moment, but Xiao Ben didn't give a clear answer. He only said that he needed to discuss it with his brother first before making a decision.
This surprised Qinlin, but she didn't say anything. She waited quietly for her brother's reply.
After hanging up, Xiao Ben's eyebrows furrowed. Xiao Ji, on the other hand, was an impatient man. "Brother, if Lin Yi is the hidden House Pi's boss, then he's our backer's backer! There's no harm in getting on good terms with him! Why don't you agree to cancel the marriage? "
"Cancel the marriage? You want our Xiao family to be Lin Yi's lackeys? Xiao Ji, I think you're crazy. Did you forget that Lin Yi is our Xiao family's number one enemy? You're an idiot! " Gou Huli screamed before Xiao Ben could say anything. She didn't want the Xiao family to give in to Lin Yi. Hadn't she lost enough face in front of Lin Yi?
One had to admit that this woman was quite vengeful, especially a woman like Gou Huli. Once you started to hate someone, it would be to the point of making your hair stand on end.
"Pa!" Xiao Ji heard Huli's scream and gave her a big slap. "What are you yelling for, you useless bitch? Who are you to make decisions for the Xiao family? "
"You … you hit me? Xiao Ji, I'm doing this for the good of the Xiao family! How dare you hit me! "Gou Huli held her swollen face and cried.
"Damn it. If you call me that again, I'll hit you again! "Xiao Ji said angrily.
"Big Brother, don't be angry!" Xiao Ben waved his hand to stop Xiao Ji's violence. "Sister-in-law isn't wrong. Don't be agitated. She's right. Xiao family won't get any benefits if we give in to Lin Yi …"
"Oh?" Xiao Ji paused. "If Xinyan marries Lin Yi, wouldn't our Xiao family depend on Lin Yi? Even the hidden House Pi depends on Lin Yi. This means that Lin Yi has a lot of potential. This is good for the development of our Xiao family … "
"Big Brother, you're too naive." Xiao Ben said. "You're right, but have you thought about it? How big is the hatred between our Xiao family and Lin Yi? From the beginning, our Xiao family has always been against Lin Yi. We've hit him when he's down. It's already at an irreconcilable stage! "
"That …" Xiao Ji hesitated. "Then if we marry Xinyan to Lin Yi, wouldn't we become relatives with Lin Yi?"
"Relatives?" Xiao Ben laughed coldly. "You treat Lin Yi as a relative, but will he treat you as one? We've heard about what happened in the hidden House Tang from the hidden House You. Did Lin Yi give face to Tang Yun's father? Did he give face to her grandfather? He's her biological father. What are we? We're not even close to him! "
"That …" Xiao Ji thought about it. His brother was right. But he still hoped for luck. "Didn't Wu Chentian and the hidden House Pi have conflicts with Lin Yi before? Didn't you get Lin Yi's trust now? "
"I don't know if the hidden House Pi is on Lin Yi's side or not, but it doesn't matter. Wu Chentian, too, did he have a direct conflict with Lin Yi? Did it cause any serious consequences? "Xiao Ben waved his hand and said," No! Chentian and House Pi actually didn't have much of a conflict with Lin Yi, it was just that they didn't get along. But there is no way our Xiao family would draw their swords against each other! For example, Zhao Qibing of the hidden house Zhao, Xie Yufeng of the common house Yu- these people had a grudge with Lin Yi, do you think there's any way to resolve it? The common House Yu was destroyed by Lin Yi, and the hidden House Zhao's Zhao Qibing almost lost his life a couple of times. Do you think Lin Yi would let us, who aren't good relatives of Wang Xinyan, live with us? "
"That …" Xiao Ji didn't have much of a brain, but after Xiao Ben's analysis, he felt that it was possible! After all, the Xiao family and Lin Yi had a huge grudge! When Lin Yi was injured, the Xiao family had jumped out to add insult to injury. Would Lin Yi let them go so easily?
"Then … Can't we ask the hidden House Pi for mercy …" Xiao Ji said after some hesitation.
"Ask for mercy? Do you think the hidden House Pi would care about us after joining Lin Yi? Even Wu Chentian wouldn't care about us after joining Lin Yi, let alone the high and mighty hidden House Pi. Do you think the hidden House Pi would care about us? " Xiao Ben shook his head, "We're just a money-making tool for the hidden House Pi. Now that the hidden House Pi has joined Lin Yi's side, and Wu Chentian is Lin Yi's follower, the hidden House Pi and Lin Yi would be doing business with Wu Chentian. Would they even consider us?"
"That's true …" Xiao Ji nodded, "Even if we let Wang Xinyan follow Lin Yi, we wouldn't be able to get on Lin Yi's good side. Lin Yi would still ignore us, and the Xiao family's position would still be in danger … But if we force Lin Yi to marry Zhaolong, wouldn't we be going against Lin Yi? Wouldn't Lin Yi destroy us in a fit of rage? "
"If he wanted to, he would've done it a long time ago. The reason why he hasn't is probably because we're Wang Xinyan's uncle's son, so we don't have to be afraid of anything." Xiao Ben said, "At that time, when the hidden Tang family broke off with Lin Yi and Tang Yun, I didn't see Lin Yi do anything."
Xiao Ben was right- Lin Yi didn't do anything to the hidden House Pi, but it wasn't because he didn't want to, but because he wasn't their opponent!
