When Yu Shaoting received Bai Xiao's call again, he was sitting in the conference room, listening to the partner's explanation of the relevant terms of the contract. He took the phone and stood up directly. Regardless of the other party's expression at the moment, he said "Sorry" directly.

Opened the door and went out.

Walking outside the conference room, Yu Shaoting answered the phone and stopped Yang Xi who was passing by: "Mr. Xu has always been responsible for this case. Ask him to come to the conference room."

Yang Xi noticed the ringing cell phone in his hand and nodded in understanding: "I'll ask Mr. Xu to come up and talk to the customer right away."

When entering the elevator, Yu Shaoting answered the phone. On the other end was Bai Xiao's slightly panting breath: "Are you still in the meeting? When will it end?"

"Where are you?" When Yu Shaoting pressed the number '1', she heard the horn of a car near her.

"...I'm just planning to go out, so keep busy and I'll find you later."

While Bai Xiao was worried about him, she was also afraid of disturbing his work. Although she also knew that it was inappropriate for her to call him at the moment, she still called him uncontrollably.

Yu Shaoting hung up the phone and came out of the elevator. What he saw was Bai Xiao standing outside the door with his back turned.

She was wearing a set of very ordinary home clothes, with a ponytail, maybe she came out in a hurry, and she was also wearing indoor slippers on her feet.

…

Bai Xiao asked Ye Hehuan to take her to the Donglin gate, but did not let Hehuan accompany her to wait for Yu Shaoting to finish the meeting. She stood there watching the cars go by, and she thought a lot.

When someone put a hand on her shoulder, Bai Xiao immediately turned around and saw Yu Shaoting standing behind her at some point.

"Why do people who plan to go out stand in front of my company?"

Bai Xiao caught sight of him unexpectedly and was a little dazed: "Aren't you in a meeting? Why -"

Yu Shaoting looked at her dumbfounded look and stretched out his right index and middle fingers to pinch her nose: "Why are you acting like a stupid lady?"

Bai Xiao looked at the faint smile in his eyes and the softened lines on his face. He was in a daze for a moment, then took his hands and said, "He Huan came to the house just now and showed me a magazine report. It said

There are many things involved, including that I am that person’s daughter, and what happened between you and me...did you see that?”

Bai Xiao became more worried as he spoke: "Will it have a bad impact on you? And the Yu family, will there be reporters to bother them?"

Yu Shaoting pulled her back and said: "What impact can it have? In today's society, who doesn't have one or two bad news behind their backs?"

He didn't care much about the tone of his words, but she didn't really think that those public opinions didn't matter. Bai Xiao had a lot to say, but couldn't express it. Standing at the door of the company, people came and went, she looked at him,

He frowned and opened his mouth: "I——"

Yu Shaoting suddenly reached out and hugged her into his arms. His deep voice sounded in her ears: "With me here, there is nothing to be afraid of."

"I'm just worried about you..." Jing Xi and Yu Jia are also worried that anyone who has anything to do with me will be implicated.

"It's just a false report."

Bai Xiao ignored the curious eyes around her and hugged him tightly. The familiar embrace eased her anxiety slightly.

…

"Mr. Yu?" Behind him, someone called Yu Shaoting. Bai Xiao subconsciously left his arms and turned to look over.

He was a middle-aged man who looked like a boss, and he was accompanied by two or three subordinates carrying briefcases.

The middle-aged man came over and said, "I just asked you where Mr. Yu went. It turns out he is downstairs..." As he said this, he looked at Bai Xiao with an ambiguous smile.

Bai Xiao guessed that this boss had business dealings with Dong Lin, so when the other party looked over, she nodded in a friendly manner.

On the other hand, Yu Shaoting looked as usual, with one hand in his pocket and the other hand hanging naturally by his side. He greeted the other party and the conversation was nothing more than business.

It is not difficult to judge from the content that Yu Shaoting was having a meeting with him upstairs just now.

The two men talked for a while, and Yu Shaoting suddenly turned around and introduced to Bai Xiao: "This is Mr. Huang from Haijian Group."

Bai Xiao stretched out his hand toward Mr. Huang: "Mr. Huang, hello."

Mr. Huang smiled and shook Bai Xiao's hand, and looked at Yu Shaoting: "My child's birthday party will be in a few days, and Mr. Yu will bring his family to attend."

"Definitely." Yu Shaoting had a polite smile on his face.

…

When Yu Shaoting took Bai Xiao to the parking lot, Mr. Huang was still standing at the east door, squinting at the backs of the two of them, and sighed: "I'm getting old!"

"Mr. Huang, you are only in your prime, how old are you?" the assistant next to him said flatteringly.

"My heart is getting old, and I can no longer do things like being angry for beauty. The older I get, the more timid I become in doing things."

The assistant looked at the direction where Yu Shaoting and Bai Xiao were leaving: "Could it be that the person just now was the one written in the magazine -"

In large companies, the most common thing for office workers to read is magazines. There are fashion magazines, financial magazines, and of course there is no shortage of gossip magazines. When a person sees a surprising piece of news, it will often spread to others, so assistants

Before coming to Donglin, I also read some reports from my colleagues.

Although the report did not name the man who secretly communicated with his wife's cousin about the song, but in this era of national gossip, if you just ask around, you can immediately know who Xu Shuyuan mentioned in the report is.

Who married the only eldest daughter of the Xu family?

"I really can't tell, but at this age, I thought I was already twenty-seven or eighty-years-old anyway." The assistant muttered.

"When a man looks at a woman, it's all about his eyesight. Besides, the girl's family background is very good. Yu San's eye for selecting women is so accurate. Just before the meeting, he asked me if I knew the publisher of Yuansheng News.

As a shareholder of the group, I accidentally mentioned him during a previous dinner, and he became interested in me."

As Mr. Huang said, he glanced at the inexperienced assistant: "The magazine you passed around in the office area this morning is under the Yuansheng Group."

The assistant seemed to understand something, but felt that it was impossible. Mr. Huang chuckled, put his hands behind his back, and turned around slowly, "It is not easy to open a newspaper these days. If you are not careful, you will offend some powerful person. The most unlucky one.

The situation is that if you offend a large group of people all at once, you will be left with nothing to eat."

——————————

Xia Lan saw the report in the magazine because her sister-in-law came to the hospital excitedly to find her and threw the magazine on her quilt.

"Alan, our Xia family doesn't have the background of the Xu family or the Yu family, so we can only help you get here."

The grand hall lady's proud look gave Xia Lan a bad premonition. She flipped through the magazine and finally saw something that gave her a headache on page 18. The half-true and half-false report made her look ugly and pointed.

The photo in the magazine asked the receptionist: "Where did this come from?"

"This is what Zhen Ning and I want." The lady-in-law sat down beside the bed and patted Xia Lan's hand: "The article was also written by the magazine's best writer."

Xia Lan's brain buzzed. When she heard the receptionist's smug words, she almost burst out: "Who asked you to help?!"

"Two days ago, a reporter came to Yizhou Weekly for an interview and said that she was fired because of pressure from the Xu family and her insistence on publishing a report about Xu Liu. Otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of this idea."

Yizhou Weekly was founded by one of Xia Lan's cousins. She was already married to Xu Jingyan at the time, and the Xu family helped a lot behind the scenes.

But now, this weekly magazine has exposed the Xu family's family scandal...

"Xu Liu is now clamoring to divorce you because of that mother and daughter. We might as well expose the matter first and let the public see what their son of the Xu family has done. Also, let the Yu family see clearly what they

What kind of character is the new daughter-in-law like?"

Xia Lan stared at the pictures in the report, and in her ears she heard the triumphant voice of the lobby sister-in-law: "And your sister-in-law, it's too hard to understand! She was the mistress who forced her daughter to death and snatched away her son-in-law's position.

It would be better for her to help her mother and daughter deal with you. This time, let her wake up!"

"That's enough." The receptionist's sister-in-law was stunned when she heard Xia Lan speak. She thought she heard wrongly, but Xia Lan said again: "Are you sure you are helping me?"

"What... happened?"

Xia Lan held the magazine and smiled bitterly: "Sister-in-law, why didn't you check it out before you found someone to write this report?"

"What to check?"

"Do you know where Bai Ningxuan is now?"

The hall sister-in-law looked confused, and Xia Lan said word by word: "She changed her name to Su Manrong, and she is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yu family. Do you think her father-in-law will let go of the Xia family after seeing this report?!"

, the magazine was thrown to the ground by her.

"Isn't there still the Xu family?" The hall's sister-in-law advised Xia Lan, who was in a hurry: "In order to save your mother-in-law, you even lost your child. Your father-in-law—"

"Do you think Xu Hongyang is on my side by not expressing his stance?"

Xia Lan shook his head: "He felt like a mirror in his heart. He believed Liang Huizhen's words! Otherwise, how could he not say a word when Xu Jingyan wanted to divorce me? With his temperament, if he really wanted to help me,

The measures taken are definitely tough, just like when we chased Bai Ningxuan away, how ruthless."

"His current attitude is just because he cares about my affection for the old lady, and also to stabilize the entire Xu family and wants me to leave on my own. His two good daughters-in-law also had a hand in what happened back then, but he

They turned a blind eye, even though they warned them privately, they said nothing openly, hoping to make everything "happy at home and in peace"."

That way, if Xu Jingyan wants to hate her in the future, he will only hate her and Xia Lan. There won't be a big gap between him and those brothers.

Xia Lan closed her eyes. Xu Hongyang was scheming. If she had room for maneuver before, now, it was almost destroyed by the Xia family!

"Then what should we do now?" The receptionist's sister-in-law panicked after hearing Xia Lan's analysis.

Xia Lan sneered at herself: "We have come to this point, what else can we do?"

The lobby sister-in-law wanted to slap herself a few times, but she heard Xia Lan say: "Go back first and let me think about how to deal with it. I will contact you then."

——————————

When Xu Zhenning came, she saw Xia Lan standing by the window, lost in thought. She didn't know what she was thinking. She also discovered the magazine on the ground.

"Mom -" Xu Zhenning just shouted out, Xia Lan suddenly turned around and said sternly: "You still know that I am your mother?"

"Who asked you to give those photos to the Xia family? Do you know what consequences I, a mother, will have to bear because of your recklessness?!"
