After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 367 - 365 Undertones
Chapter 367: Chapter 365 Undertones
"You..." Song Keren gritted her teeth, only able to stare fiercely at Xia Wenjin, no longer able to utter another word.
Xia Wenjin had decided to let everything crash and burn because she was already ruined.
Even if her reputation was ruined, it was just one more point for mockery.
But if people outside found out, not only would she be ridiculed by everyone, but she would also be kicked out by Justin.
She was never really part of the Song Family; Old Master Song had removed her from the Song Family circle when she married Justin.
It would be incredibly hard for her to show her face in the entire Shangjing Circle thereafter.
Xiao Mo and Xiao Jinglan would certainly try to send her overseas again.
She didn’t want that!
She didn’t want to live out her miserable life abroad!
Song Keren glared at Xia Wenqing viciously, but she was completely powerless against her.
She could only cast a pleading look towards Xiao Mo beside her.
Xiao Mo was even more confused than Song Keren.
He hadn’t expected Xia Wenjin to know about his relationship with the Song Family.
Killing Xia Wenjin now wouldn’t work, given her current high profile.
It would be difficult to explain her sudden disappearance.
And troublesome.
All he could do now was to stabilize Xia Wenjin, as she could rely only on them now; perhaps having a good talk would lead to a favorable outcome.
"Xia Wenjin, you just..."
"Don’t worry about how I found out, and don’t lecture me on morals. Just know that if I reveal this, whether others believe it or not, the Song Family will definitely investigate thoroughly, and then I won’t be the only one in trouble."
Xia Wenqing interrupted before Xiao Mo could finish.
She knew that more than having one extra member in the family, Xiao Mo cared more about his future.
That’s why she had to be tough, to avoid being manipulated.
Xiao Mo’s face visibly changed. Before he could react, Xiao Jinglan couldn’t sit still anymore.
Biting her teeth, she cursed, "Xia Wenjin, have you no shame? You’re nothing but trash, and you still think to drag my son down?!"
Now that Xia Wenjin knew the real truth, she had nothing left to hide.
She had already made a clean break with Xia Wenjin, so she wasn’t afraid to speak her mind.
Xiao Mo frowned and raised a hand to stop Xiao Jinglan, "I’ll handle this matter, no need for any of you to chime in."
His eyes swept over Xiao Jinglan and Song Keren, his expression dark and frightening.
Xiao Jinglan and Song Keren didn’t dare breathe too loudly, but Xia Wenjin secretly sighed in relief.
She had won.
At least for now, Xiao Mo wouldn’t dare mess with her.
After dealing with Song Keren and Xiao Jinglan, Xiao Mo then turned to Xia Wenjin and said, "Let’s talk."
Although Song Keren still feared Xiao Mo deep down, she felt a bit more confident now, so she didn’t feel too intimidated facing him.
She nodded and followed him to sit beside the sofa.
"What do you want?" Xiao Mo got straight to the point the moment he opened his mouth. He didn’t have much time to beat around the bush with Xia Wenjin.
Xia Wenjin took a deep breath. "I mean no harm. I told you before, I want to live a good life with you. You want to take down the Song Family, I just want the name of Mrs. Song. I can help you, and once you succeed, I won’t care how many women you find."
Xiao Mo’s gaze fell on Xia Wenjin, seemingly considering the credibility of her recent words.
Seeing this, Xia Wenjin immediately took a step back and said, "I have nothing now. Without relying on you, I have no chance of turning my life around, so I will help you."
Xiao Mo narrowed his eyes. "What other conditions do you have?"
Xia Wenjin swallowed. "I just want to live well in this household. At least, you can’t hit me anymore."
Her body was covered with large and small scars, not visible from the outside, but her skin bore all the marks of Xiao Mo’s torture.
Xiao Mo looked at Xia Wenjin again. "Fine, I agree."
Xia Wenjin finally breathed a sigh of relief. "What I said about helping you wasn’t nonsense. Justin is with XJ Group, but he is actually an overseas branch of the Xia Family. If he can ally with the forces inside XJ Group, it’s not impossible to push you to a higher position."
Xiao Mo must also have his own forces in the Song Group, otherwise, Xiao Jinglan wouldn’t be so arrogant.
"Justin is my brother-in-law. Even if I collaborate with him, I don’t need you to facilitate," Xiao Mo said coldly, looking at Xia Wenjin.
It was only because she knew secrets about him that he couldn’t handle easily that he had agreed to her many trivial conditions.
Xia Wenjin pursed her lips. "Song Keren is useless to Justin, and she’s not smart. Even if you wanted to work with Justin, it couldn’t be openly done. But I can."
This was indeed something Xiao Mo had to admit.
Whether him or Justin, if they wanted to keep power in their hands, they had to act in secrecy.
He certainly couldn’t be seen overly interacting with Justin.
But Song Keren is such a fool.
More likely to err than to succeed.
Allowing her to help would probably hinder more than help.
Thinking this, Xiao Mo’s expression towards Xia Wenjin softened slightly. "You’re not planning to rekindle your old flame with Justin during this, are you?"
Xia Wenjin’s face immediately darkened. "I’ve told you, I want the position of Mrs. Song. So, I absolutely won’t mess up again before you succeed. You can trust me."
Xiao Mo scoffed lightly. "Well, let’s see your sincerity then..."
Because Lu Zhaozhao and Sinian had gone to the Xia Family over the weekend for Xia Wenjue’s birthday, on Monday, Lu Zhaozhao made a special trip back to the Song Mansion with Sinian.
It just so happened that they bumped into Hao Li, who had also come to the Song Mansion.
Before, Hao Li didn’t know that Lu Zhaozhao was the one who had acted against Feng Jiaye, so she hadn’t made things difficult for Lu Zhaozhao at the hospital.
Now that they had bumped into each other, it was truly a narrow road for enemies.
With a fake smile, she looked at Lu Zhaozhao and said, "Oh, I’ve been coming to the Song Mansion a lot lately, but it’s the first time I’ve seen you, this granddaughter-in-law. You really are a big star, always busy."
The mocking tone in Hao Li’s voice wasn’t lost on Old Master Song. He frowned immediately and looked at her coldly. "Zhaozhao is my granddaughter-in-law of the Song Family; it’s not your place as an outsider to make snide remarks."
Normally, if someone heard that, they would refrain from saying anything more.
But Hao Li, after hearing Old Master Song’s words, instead sensed an "implicit message".
Because Lu Zhaozhao held her current status by being the granddaughter-in-law of the Song Family, if she wasn’t, then Hao Li could manipulate her at will?
Hao Li’s eyes narrowed, and she quickly looked at Old Master Song with a fawning expression. "Old Master, I am Sinian’s aunt, almost half a member of the Song Family..."
