2123: Xie Tingyun Just Doesn't Like Xie Xinyao

Xie Tingyun Just Doesn't Like Xie Xinyao

They weren't the only ones investigating.2

This time, almost everyone who received Xie Tingyun's invitation sent people out to investigate.

Ever since Xie Tingyun gradually faded from the sight of the major forces of the independent continent 20 years ago, no one dared to underestimate this weapon big boss who had become famous 20 years ago.

20 years later, Xie Tingyun suddenly sent them an invitation to a filiation banquet. Everyone felt that Xie Tingyun wasn't just acknowledging her goddaughter this time. She was also indirectly announcing her future successor! After all, Xie Tingyun's instincts made all the major forces in the independent continent extremely afraid, not to mention that she had Nan Tianyi, who loved his wife as much as his life, behind her.

As a century-old family, the Nan family and Nan Tianyi were the heirs of the previous generation.

Although Nan Tianyi was low-key and not outstanding, no one dared to underestimate him.

Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi had a successor. This wasn't a small matter!

The key was that all the major forces could tell.

This time, the heir Xie Tingyun chose wasn't the outstanding Xie Xinyao of the Xie family's younger generation.

It was an outsider!

Xie Tingyun was handing over all her connections to an outsider. How could they not be curious about this outsider's identity?

The Xie family had found the other party's surname.

The other major forces had also found this surname.

Qiao.

Recently, the independent continent was about to be flooded with this name.

When everyone learned that the person Xie Tingyun wanted to acknowledge had the surname Qiao, the same name appeared in their minds—Qiao Nian!

Xie Xinyao took a deep breath in frustration. "I understand. I'll think of a way to investigate too."

"Yes, I just thought that someone in your research institute might be able to find out something." Mother Xie had called her back for this. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Xinyao, you should call your aunt later and ask her if she's willing to tell you."

"I understand."

Now that Xie Xinyao mentioned Xie Tingyun, her face did not look good. She once thought that she would definitely be Xie Tingyun's future heir, but Xie Tingyun's choice was undoubtedly a slap to her face in public.

The Xie family clearly had someone, but Xie Tingyun chose an outsider.

Wasn't this looking down on her?

Mother Xie could tell that she didn't look well and reminded her calmly, "When you ask your aunt later, speak in a better tone. Don't anger her."

Xie Xinyao pinched her fingernails, feeling angry.

Seeing that she was unconvinced, Mother Xie said slowly, "Xinyao, we're family, after all. Your aunt is just acknowledging a goddaughter. As long as you perform well, it's hard to say who your aunt's future connections will belong to. Do you understand?"

"I understand," Xie Xinyao replied quickly. It was unknown if she really knew or was faking it, but she wanted to go upstairs. "Dad, Mom, I'm a little tired. I'll go upstairs first."

"Xinyao…"

Mother Xie couldn't stop her.

She watched as her daughter disappeared upstairs.

She rubbed her temples and turned to her husband. "Why do you think Tingyun is so stubborn this time? The other party is an outsider. She…"

"She's been like this since she was young. Once she decides on something, it's very difficult to change her mind. This time, even when my mother went to look for her, she refused to change her mind. This matter basically can't be changed."

Father Xie's expression was solemn as he sighed.

"We all thought that everything of Tingyun's would belong to Xinyao, but from the looks of it, Tingyun doesn't seem to like Xinyao."
