"Big Aunt, you..." Xinran was momentarily stunned, staring blankly at Zhong Cuihong, her big aunt.
"Summer, let me tell you, Xia Sheng Group is mine. In the future, I will leave it to my children. You, the daughter of a third party, should not even think about coveting it. I will not let go; you will never get even a tiny share in your lifetime!"
Xinran coldly watched her aunt's nearly insane outburst. She had never intended to covet those shares; even if her father wanted to leave them to her, she might not want them. However, she had no reason to endure this slap from her aunt. She could feel her left cheek still tingling slightly; it must be swollen...
If no one provoked her, she would not provoke anyone. But once someone crossed the line, she was not easy to mess with, just like the Xia sisters, Xia Wenyiyi and Xia Wenjing, who had never gained any advantage from her! The crazy woman before her was her aunt, and she would still respectfully call her "Aunt" out of consideration for the happiness that her mother had destroyed in the past. But that did not mean she would allow herself to be beaten and scolded...
Yes, she would not fight back, but she was determined to claim those shares; besides, they should rightfully belong to her!
"Xia Sheng Group belongs to Dad, and so do the shares. He can give them to whoever he wants. If you have the ability to stop him, please go ahead!" With that, Xinran turned around, opened the door forcefully, and slammed it shut behind her as she left.
She walked quietly down the stairs and out through the ornate front door. Xinran rubbed her cheek; Jerry was right—she had been hurt again. Putting on the sunglasses from her bag, she quickened her pace to leave this villa that felt like hell to her...
However, just as she stepped outside, a rather ostentatious sports car parked on the small road made Xinran pause. She stood still, looking through her black sunglasses at the glowing man leaning against the car door. She was sure he wasn't wearing a power generator but exuded a charm that could attract people's attention.
She wasn't surprised that Augus had come looking for her or even his agent; what concerned her was why he appeared here. She had never disclosed her connections with Xiada Group or the Xia Family's half of high society. Therefore, after so many years in the industry, even paparazzi wouldn't associate her with the Xia Family, even though she shared their surname!
It was obvious, wasn't it? Augus had sent someone to investigate her in detail.
Seeing his target emerge from the villa, Augus smirked playfully and strolled forward. Slightly bending over in a gentlemanly manner, he said, "Miss Xia, may I have the honor of giving you a ride?"
"If I refuse your offer, Mr. Mu, will you leave immediately?" Xinran replied coldly.
"Hahaha, no way!" Augus laughed loudly, then raised an arm to wrap around Xinran's shoulders, leading her to the car door. Without hesitation, he opened the door and pushed Xinran inside.
Xinran didn't refuse again, nor did she want to. First of all, she was still somewhat curious about Augus's intentions for tonight. Shouldn't he be grounded by his manager to avoid causing more trouble or being hounded by paparazzi? How could he still be driving such a flashy sports car on the road?
Secondly, although the small road near her father's villa was quiet, there was no guarantee that this big star hadn't attracted any paparazzi. If she confronted him here and they discovered she had come out of this villa, the secret she wanted to keep hidden would soon be common knowledge, especially at such a critical moment!
Augus closed the car door for Xinran, walked around the vehicle to the driver's seat, got in, started the engine, and soon the sports car sped away like an arrow released from a bow.
Although Xinran didn't know how good Augus's sports car was, she knew he was a skilled driver. At least he could drive steadily while keeping his gaze fixed on her profile.
"Mr. Mu, have you seen enough?" Xinran turned her face to meet Augus's gaze.
"Did someone hit your face?" A sudden bruise on her fair cheek made it look like a flaw in a painting.
"So what?"
Augus pressed his lips together, chuckled lightly, and said nothing more as he turned his attention back to driving seriously.
