Chapter 100: Using Other People For Their Own Benefit

“What? She’s not dad’s real daughter?” Xu Xinrou gasped.
Xu Xiyan began to feel dizzy after hearing everything inside.
I’m not his real daughter?
Is this real?
“Don’t shout! Keep it to yourself!”
Xu Xinrou was happy, excited. She’d always been called “daughter of a mistress,” and now she finally had the chance to throw it all away since it had always made her feel inferior to Xu Xiyan.
Now that she’d learned the secret truth, it was like all her worries left her.
Since Xu Xiyan is not my dad’s real daughter, doesn’t that mean I’m the only child of the Xu family? Now that’s exciting!
“If she’s not dad’s real daughter, then who is her father?” Xu Xinrou asked.
“I have no idea who her father is. Jing Ruyue had many lovers in the past, so who knows which one is her real father. All I know is that she was already pregnant when she married your father.”
“Wait, doesn’t that mean dad has been taking care of another person’s child for more than 10 years?”
Xu Xinrou finally understood why Xu Jinshan had never loved Xu Xiyan and beat her to express his anger–she was never his daughter to begin with.
A bastard! Xu Xiyan was a bastard!
“Of course he did gain something. Your dad married Jing Ruyue because he wanted the money from the Jing family. Much of what we have now came from the dowry Jing Ruyue brought over. And Yuhe’s company…it all came from Xu Xiyan’s inheritance. It’s all thanks to Xu Xiyan that your dad could become the in-house director for Yunhai Entertainment, the biggest entertainment company in all of Peijing.”
“Don’t forget,” she continued, “she also has something to do with Yuhe and your success.”
Xu Xiyan was already biting her lips from anger outside the room. This family really is full of demons! They keep using other people for their own benefits!
Xu Xinrou did not understand what Su Lei had meant and asked, “How does our success have anything to do with her? I thought she was in another country for the past few years? She never sent us money.”
“You stupid child! Why do you think Yunhai’s CEO, Huo Yunshen, would help us? It was all because of Xu Xiyan!”
Huh?
What?
Xu Xiyan, still listening, was confused. I don’t understand! Why is Huo Yunshen helping them because of me?
“Because of her? Why?” Xu Xinrou asked.
“I’m not really sure. But your dad said it was because Huo Yunshen had fallen for Xu Xiyan,” Su Lei explained. “Yet, coincidentally, Xu Xiyan went abroad, and he had no idea. That’s why he’s been helping our family since. For her.”
That’s why!
That’s why Yunhai Entertainment would go to such lengths to help Xu Jinshan and Juxing Entertainment!
I’ve always wondered why Huo Yunshen would help those bastards! I never would’ve thought that he would help the Xu family and Chu Yuhe because of this.
This was bad investment for him…he’s only helping a bunch of hungry wolves.
