CHAPTER 119

So, the events had been too much for Duan Tian that he ignored Li Xiu completely even after his mother had asked him repeatedly to make her get them back their business clients.

"If she was that capable, then why hasn't their company risen from where they are now?" Duan Tian's sister, Duan Li Wei remarked rudely, not caring about the fact that her brother was there.

"That is true, but my words remain Tian. She should also show some seriousness and help, else she can kiss her relationship with you goodbye.

Honestly, he did not know what his family had heard, but it wasn't Li Xiu's fault actually, it was just that she contributed and at the wrong time at that!

"Is this how she wants to assist you in the future? Only cause trouble and go off? No way. In fact, put a call through to her." Duan Tian's mother, Duan Mingyu added.

Duan Tian had no choice but to call Li Xiu and he knew he had already annoyed her and had not called to apologize, so him calling now, for his mother to shout…Whoa!

Li Xiu would definitely not feel good about it, but knowing his mother, she won't let him rest till he gave in to her whims.

Before he knew what was happening he was already dialing her number and the phone began to ring.

Li Xiu was in her room sulking and thinking of a plan to get her revenge on Li Jing when her phone screen came on and she checked to see the caller only to find out that it was Duan Tian.

At first, she did not want to pick the call but after some thoughts, she decided to answer it and yell her frustration on him.

Till now she was still angry at how Duan Tian treated her at the party by leaving her to go home herself and had still not called to check in on her since.

"Duan Tian!" Rather than greet him or a simple word of hello, Li Xiu lacked that courtesy at that moment as her rage took over instantly.

Duan Li Wei and Duan Mingyu both were startled at how she reacted from picking his call. He did not need to look at the stunned but angry look of both his mother and his sister to know that they were very displeased with her.

"Hey, darling."

"Do not darling me, Duan Tian. How could you do that to me? Is that how much you love me? Do I mean so little to you?"

Duan Tian sighed and looked down. He knew she would be mad but now was not the right time.

"I would make it up to you when I see you but now mother wants to talk to you. Please be calm, baby. I know I offended you and we would settle that later."

"Fine."

Duan Tian passed his mother the phone and prayed within his heart that they do not end up hurting each other with words as he would be on the losing end f he dared sided anyone.

"Li Xiu," Duan Mingyu called out to her.

"Good afternoon, Mrs Duan."

"Afternoon. I want to ask you a question and I need you to be truthful about it to me."

"Okay. What is it, ma?"

"Were you aware that my company suffered a great loss because of you and your family?"

Li Xiu's brows creased at her words. She was still trying to comprehend what Duan Mingyu said about her family when Duan Mingyu spoke again.

"Do you have any idea the kind of embarrassment the Duna group had faced because of you and your sister?"

Hold up! Hold up!

Did she just say what the Li family caused?!

Li Xiu could not believe she was the one hearing all these rubbish right now? Duan Tian called her knowing fully well that is stupid mother would ask her such stupid questions.

She already felt too insulted by everything and wanted to drop the call after giving the lady a piece of her mind but then again, if she was to marry him and not look like a fool who got dumped after snatching her sister's fiancé, then she needed to be respectful to his family and that included his mother.

Taking in a deep breath, Li Xiu calmed her raging self a bit and swallowed her saliva hard.

"Ma'am, with all due respect, this has nothing to do with the Li family."

"What? Are you denying that you did not bad mouth Ye Cheng and caused trouble for my family and company?" Duan Mingyu yelled at her, getting up from her seat and pacing.

Li Xiu's patience was about to snap and break any minute now but she needed to remind herself to calm down. Think f the future, she said to herself.

'This is all to look good. Calm down Xiu, calm down.' She chanted those words in her mind as Duan Mingu carried on with acquisitioning blames to her family.

"Ma, we did not.."

"Or you want to deny that it was not because of that cursed sister of yours that Duan Tian got thrown out?"

Holy crap!

What has Li Jing got to do with all these? All she did was go to a party, she never asked your cursed son and her idiotic whorish sister to come over and start causing trouble to make her feel bad!

Sigh!

You all really are one family. Now I know where Duan Tian got his crazed side from.

<Li Jing: Huh… Author, you are cursing.>

<Author: Urggh, Li Jing, I am siding you. Even I am getting pissed off by how useless the full family is.>

<Ye Cheng: Aren't you the one writing the story?>

<Author: Get lost and let me pour out my anger. Now… where were we?>

"I am sorry, but Duan Tian was the one who went to meet them and cause trouble. Even at that when things went out of hand, I still sided with him and got thrown out of the party as well. If there is anything, I think I did my fair share and got my own part of the embarrassment as well, yet your son abandoned me there and went home."
