Outside the gate of the Xin family villa.

The man who was holding the umbrella for Xin Zaozao was Qin Jiancong, Xin He’s personal lawyer.

Xin Zaozao followed Qin Jiancong, walking towards the villa.

At the entrance of the villa, Mu Cidian, looking at Qin Jiancong, expressed respect, “Uncle Qin.”

After all, Qin Jiancong and Xin He had been close friends for several decades.

“Hmm. Is your mother here?” Qin Jiancong asked.

“Yes.”

“That’s good. I’ll announce Old Xin’s will before everyone. Ask your mother to come to Old Xin’s study room.”

“Okay.” Mu Cidian nodded, glancing at Xin Zaozao.

Xin Zaozao didn’t place her gaze on anyone.

Qin Jiancong, leading Xin Zaozao back up to the second floor of the villa, said, “Zaozao, you’re soaking wet. Go take a bath and come back. There’s no need to rush to declare the will!”

Xin Zaozao looked at Qin Jiancong.

She seemed somewhat uncomfortable with his kindness.

Qin Jiancong offered a slight smile. “Go on then.”

Xin Zaozao nodded, and left.

When Xin Zaozao returned to her room, fortunately, her clothes were still there. Her father had just passed away, so Wan Quan likely didn’t have time to deal with her belongings yet.

She ran a hot bath for herself and stayed under the water for a long time, trying to shake off the chill.

She came out of the bathroom wearing a bathrobe.

Inside the room, Mu Cidian was sitting at the edge of her bed.

Unconsciously, Xin Zaozao tightened her hold on her bathrobe, keeping her eyes on him.

“Everyone’s waiting for you.” Mu Cidian glanced at her.

At the moment, her complexion was much healthier than usual, her cheeks flushed. Perhaps it was a result of the hot water bath.

“I know.” Xin Zaozao responded flatly.

Mu Cidian got up and left her room.

Xin Zaozao’s tight hold on her bathrobe relaxed slightly.

She took a deep breath, changed into a fresh and comfortable outfit, blow-dried her hair half-dry, and headed for the study room.

Inside the study room, naturally, there was Wan Quan. Her face turned sullen at the sight of Xin Zaozao. “Who do you think you are, making everyone wait for you?”

Xin Zaozao didn’t respond.

However, it was Qin Jiancong who spoke, “Zaozao was soaking wet, so I asked her to take a bath first.” Wan Quan held back what she was about to say.

Xin Zaozao just stood in a corner of the study room, her head let low, waiting for the will to be read.

Qin Jiancong, holding onto his paperwork, said, “Old Xin’s death was very sudden, and this will has been around for about a decade.”

Wan Quan’s brows furrowed.

Mu Cidian was silent, and Xin Zaozao even more so.

“Old Xin’s will is not very comprehensive, but the most important part was written in advance.” Qin Jiancong publically opened the sealed envelope with the will, and read, “I, Xin He, hereby declare the following will. Should I pass away, all shares of the Xin Group under my name will be left to my daughter, Xin Zaozao. This will was written by Xin He, on October 21, 2005…”

“Impossible!” Wan Quan suddenly stood up from her chair in the study room. “Impossible! Xin He would not leave such a will!”

Not only was Wan Quan shocked, but Mu Cidian and Xin Zaozao were also taken aback She never thought that her father would leave the Xin Group to her.

“I don’t believe Xin He would write such a will!” Wan Quan was extremely emotional.

Qin Jiancong handed the will to Wan Quan, “This is Old Xin’s own signature, if you have doubts you can verify the handwriting. I guarantee as a lawyer, under the name of Qin Jiancong and my law firm, that this will is authentic, valid and legally binding. If Madam does not believe, you may appeal to a professional institution.”

“Impossible, how can it be… Xin He has always disliked Xin Zaozao, there’s no way he would leave the company to her!” Wan Quan glared at Xin Zaozao in anger.

Xin Zaozao held her lips tightly shut.

Yes, her father was often indifferent to her, how could he leave everything to her?

“The reality is as such, Madam needs to accept it.” Qin Jiancong seemed unwilling to further entangle in this matter, and continued, “This is the only will that Old Xin left behind, other assets and such were not explicitly stated. According to the laws of inheritance, Old Xin’s spouse, Madam, and his biological daughter, Xin Zaozao, will equally divide his other assets. This is a summary of Old Xin’s estate I have put together. Please take a look, Madam, and Zaozao.”

With that, he handed over two copies of the estate inventory.

The properties were clearly listed, detailing which belonged to Wan Quan, and which belonged to Xin

Zaozao.

However, all these were not important. What’s crucial was the shares of the Xin Group!

Wan Quan absolutely couldn’t accept this reality, and crunched the estate inventory into a ball, “This will be over a decade old, it’s simply Xin He’s personal thought at that time, it can’t hold now!” “Madam, as long as the will has not been revised, it holds, regardless of how many years have passed.” “Xin He must have forgotten about it!”

“Even so, it doesn’t provide a basis for annulment of the will.” Qin Jiancong enunciated every word.

Wan Quan was so furious her body was shaking.

Qin Jiancong, unwilling to further engage in the matter, stood up from his office chair, “Old Xin’s passing was very sudden, I ask all of you to mourn appropriately. I’ve announced the will and fairly distributed the other assets. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way.” As a lawyer, he had no right to interfere further in family matters.

Qin Jiancong left.

Inside the study room, Wan Quan, Mu Cidian and Xin Zaozao remained.

Wan Quan glared fiercely at Xin Zaozao.

How is it possible?!

How is it possible?

She had been enduring for so many years in order to acquire the Xin Group, and after spending so many years in a loveless marriage, she ended with such a fate!

Suddenly, Wan Quan violently walked towards Xin Zaozao, pressed her fiercely against the wall, her hands clawing at Xin Zaozao’s neck, her nails digging into the flesh of Xin Zaozao’s neck, drawing blood.

Xin Zaozao felt a sharp pain, along with a choking sensation.

But she felt really weak at this moment, having lacked proper rest over the past few days, and being soaked in the rain, she even suspected she might be running a fever. She couldn’t fight back against Wan Quan’s brutality at this point.

But she did not want to die.

She tried hard to push Wan Quan off with her arms.

But Wan Quan was too strong, and at any moment, she might die..
