“Since I’m asking him, it must be about him! There are too many thorns!” Tao Yuxuan frowned.
“Don’t talk about the fishbone anymore. Tell me, what secret is it?” Shi Xi sat beside Tao Yuxuan and urged her.
She knew that Xie Yunzhou was hiding something from her, but Shi Xi had never asked.
In the beginning, Shi Xi wanted to give Xie Yunzhou some privacy.
However, Xie Yunzhou kept retreating, making Shi Xi not know where to start asking.
Seeing that Tao Yuxuan was still spitting out fish bones, Shi Xi snatched the fish away from her hands. “Eat after you’re done.”
Tao Yuxuan was helpless and could only start talking. “Speaking of which, it’s not really his secret. It’s his father’s matter.”
Xie Zhongshan? What did this have to do with Xie Zhongshan?
“Speak slowly, I have plenty of time.” Shi Xi, who had just finished filming, lacked everything except time.
“Then you should be prepared. Let me ask you first, how much do you know about the Xie family?”
“I know that Xie Yunzhou is not Old Master Xie’s biological grandson. His father is a child adopted by Old Master Xie.” Shi Xi had also heard this from others before.
However, Shi Xi did not feel anything about it.
In her opinion, his background did not matter.
Tao Yuxuan nodded and whispered, “The secret 1 want to tell you is: Xie Zhongshan killed his wife.”
“How is that possible? Where did you hear about it?” Shi Xi widened her eyes in disbelief.
“Although this is hearsay, have you heard of Xie Yunzhou’s mother?” Tao Yuxuan asked.
Shi Xi was stunned when she heard that.
Yes, she had never heard of Xie Yunzhou’s mother.
This didn’t mean that Xie Zhongshan killed his wife, right?
Taking advantage of Shi Xi’s daze, Tao Yuxuan snatched the fish from Shi Xi’s hand and continued to gnaw on it. As she gnawed, she said, “Continue listening to me first. This is just the beginning.”
“This is only the beginning?” Shi Xi did not know what to say.
“Hmm, speaking of which, this isn’t the beginning.”
“You know, Xie Zhongshan was adopted by Old Master Xie. He was supposed to inherit the Xie family’s property.”
“However, Old Master Xie was still strong despite his old age. He married a concubine and gave birth to a son. That child is even younger than Xie Yunzhou.”
Shi Xi nodded. This was Second Xie.
“At this time, the small wife was unhappy,” Tao Yuxuan continued.
“In the eyes of the concubine, Second Xie is the only heir of the Xie family!”
“Xie Chongshan was just an outsider. How could he inherit so much money?”
“The concubine wanted to kick Xie Zhongshan out of the Xie family, and the two sides quarreled for a long time.”
“During this period, Xie Zhongshan’s wife, Madam Xie, became pregnant again.”
“It was said that in order to show his loyalty, Xie Zhongshan killed Madam Xie and the unborn child before he could gain a foothold in the Xie family.”
After Tao Yuxuan finished her long speech, she began to eat the fish.
She was also afraid that she would get stuck on a fishbone.
Shi Xi digested it for a while and after figuring out the relationship, she asked, “That’s not right. How could Xie Zhongshan kill his wife because of this?”
“Moreover, that’s Yanjing. He can’t possibly kill someone without paying with his life, right?”
“So the first part is just hearsay. But after that, there was indeed no news of Madam Xie.”
“The Xie family spread the word that Madam Xie had returned to the countryside to recuperate. Without Madam Xie’s protection, Xie Yunzhou’s status in the Xie family would be even lower.” Tao Yuxuan shrugged.
“The concubine chased Xie Yunzhou out of the Xie family, making it impossible
for him to return to Yanjing..”
