2115 The Xie Family Won’t Let an Outsider Take Advantage of Them

It had to be known that Xie Tingyun did not only own real estate. Everyone in the Xie family knew that Xie Tingyun also had a notebook. This notebook recorded many top scientific research projects she had partic.i.p.ated in when she was young.

Those scientific research projects were all confidential, but Xie Tingyun’s notebook had complete experimental data. The Xie family could not bear to let outsiders take advantage of this notebook alone.

They definitely could not accept Xie Tingyun acknowledging a G.o.ddaughter.

However, Xie Tingyun was stubborn and was definitely not someone who would be led by the nose.

No one in the Xie family dared to express their dissatisfaction openly. They were afraid that they would anger her and she would directly sever ties with them.

If they wanted to take Xie Tingyun’s inheritance, they had to play the emotional card step by step.

This was the main reason why Mother Xie came looking for Xie Xinyao.

Xie Xinyao was not a fool. She knew very well what her parents were up to. She pursed her lips and said in frustration, “It’s not that I don’t want to go to the manor to see Aunt. Every time I go to see her, I try my best to please her and make her happy. But she never mentions the notebook or asks how I am doing at the research inst.i.tute. I don’t think she wants to teach me.”

“How could that be?” Madam Xie comforted her and patted her hand gently. She was very confident. “Don’t think too much. No matter what, blood is thicker than water. You’re her only niece and the heir of our Xie family’s generation. There’s no reason for her to let outsiders teach you. You have to visit your aunt more and accompany her more. If she’s happy, she might give it to you.”

Xie Xinyao opened the window of the car to let the air in. Breathing in the fresh air and feeling a little better, she whispered, “I understand.”

Mother Xie nodded in satisfaction and returned to her usual dignified and n.o.ble appearance. She tightened the scarf on her shoulder and said casually, “As for that G.o.ddaughter… Heh, she can forget about taking advantage of the Xie family! I’ll find an opportunity to talk to your aunt with your father. If it doesn’t work, I’ll get your grandfather to take action. I don’t believe that your aunt will insist on acknowledging an outsider as her G.o.ddaughter.”

Xie Xinyao, on the other hand, felt a strong sense of uneasiness. Her grip tightened and she lowered her eyes. “I hope so.”

The car drove steadily forward, pulling further and further away from the research inst.i.tute until it disappeared from view.

At the research inst.i.tute.

Xie Xinyao left all her team members behind and left early. Without her around, the atmosphere in the Level 8 laboratory suddenly became much more relaxed.

Cao Yanhua brought up the matter of eating again. “By the way, Qiao Nian, you weren’t free previously. We didn’t manage to eat together. Do you have time today? Why don’t we all go for a meal?”

Xu Yi and the rest were also quite happy and looked at the girl.

Qiao Nian had already put on her baseball cap. She leaned against the table and looked down at her cell phone.

Nan Tianyi happened to have sent her a message asking if she was done with work. He invited her to the manor and said that he had something to discuss with her.

Qiao Nian was worried about Xie Tingyun’s health. Hearing this, she looked up and put her phone back into her pocket. She picked up her things and replied, “I can’t today. I have something to do and have to leave first.”

Cao Yanhua did not expect Qiao Nian to be so busy. He could not hide the disappointment on his honest face. However, he still waved at her generously. “Alright, go ahead.”

About to leave, Qiao Nian suddenly stopped and turned to look at them. Her exquisite face under the brim of her cap was beautiful. Her eyes were deep and penetrating. “How about the day after tomorrow? I’ll treat you to hotpot the day after tomorrow. I know a hotpot restaurant that has good food.”
