The ghost is the husband, the wife is the supreme

Chapter 167

That night.

Inside the brightly lit luxurious villa, the atmosphere was deadly silent.

Xu Sheng sat on the main seat, crossed his legs, looked solemn, looked at the two children sitting below who did not show much affection, and said, "Tell me, what happened."

Xu Qianqian glanced at Xu Jiasheng anxiously, with accusations in her eyes, why did her father know about this?
Xu Jiasheng also had troubles that he couldn't tell. He had the confidence to favor his younger sister in front of anyone, but apart from his own father, he couldn't see enough.

Xu Qianqian hesitated for a while, and then finished the complete description of the matter. She dared not hide it at all. The person Xu Qianqian feared the most since she was a child was her father, not one of them.

After Xu Sheng finished listening, his face was expressionless, but no one noticed that his hands on the armchair were clenched tightly.

"Qianqian, you seem to be too presumptuous recently."

Xu Qianqian's nerves tensed all of a sudden, and she said eagerly, "Dad, it's her..."

"During this time, you should stay at home."

"dad……"

"I have arranged an etiquette teacher for you. Your words and deeds need to be adjusted. As a young lady of the Xu family, you must be responsible for every word and deed."

Xu Qianqian looked at Xu Jiasheng as if asking for help. The latter couldn't bear to hurt her beloved sister, so she just said, "Dad..."

"Jia Sheng, are you sure?"

Xu Jiasheng was speechless, so he had no choice but to not meet Xu Qianqian's gaze.

Xu Qianqian gave up, so she had no choice but to respond in a low voice, "I know, I will study hard."

"Well, go back."

Just when the two siblings were about to go back to their room, a charming lady walked down the stairs gracefully, but her expression was not very good-looking. Xu Qianqian's eyes lit up instantly when she saw her, and she shouted in surprise: "Mom!"

It turned out that the person who came here was the mistress of the Xu family, Xu Qianqian's mother, and also Xu Sheng's nominal wife—Yang Jiali, who was once a well-known courtesan in the upper class.

"Xu Sheng, do you still take me seriously? Qianqian has done nothing wrong, why are you punishing her?"

Stepping on a pair of high heels, Yang Jiali walked over with a frosty face.

Xu Sheng just lifted his eyelids and glanced at her, then sighed, and said, "The imperial capital is not peaceful recently, and her every word and deed will become someone else's excuse."

Yang Jiali was noncommittal, and said: "It's just a girl from a poor family, what is there to be afraid of?"

Xu Jiasheng really wanted to say that it was not that simple. That bodyguard in the police station was not a vegetarian, but seeing his mother's face, she probably wouldn't believe what she said, so he sighed.

Xu Sheng said in a serious tone, "The Xu family, we can't make any mistakes. We didn't have a relationship with the Shen family back then. If the Shen family came back, we would probably be the first ones to shoot. We can't lose anything. Have!"

Yang Jiali said in an unbearable tone, "What Shen family, you all are afraid of being like that? Xu Sheng, you have been the master of the house for 20 years, have you ever seen the Shen family make a move? It’s just rumors, one spreads to ten, ten spreads to a hundred, I don’t know if it’s true or not, it’s just an exaggeration!”

Xu Sheng said two words heavily in his heart: superficial.

Xu Qianqian seemed to have noticed that the atmosphere between her parents was not right, so she said hesitantly: "Mom, it's my fault..."

Yang Jiali stared, and said, "Qianqian, you don't have to admit all your mistakes!"

Xu Qianqian didn't dare to speak immediately, but she was quite worried in her heart. She knew that her parents had always treated each other with respect, and the atmosphere was rarely as domineering as it is now.

Xu Jiasheng was the first to say: "Dad, Mom, let's go to rest first, it's late at night."

Xu Qianqian also nodded quickly, "Yes, my brother and I will go back first!"

The two brothers and sisters were quite sensible, and instead of staying, they chose to go back to the room. Judging from the attitudes of the two of them now, it was clear that there was still something to talk about, so they didn't bother.

Seeing that the two children had left, the frost on Yang Jiali's face became even colder. She sat on the sofa, looked at Xu Sheng with mocking eyes, and said, "I understand that you have resentment against me, but please don't." Take it out on the kids."

"You think too much, they are my seed, and I will not treat them badly."

Yang Jiali sneered, and said, "It's also thanks to your seed, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to survive."

Xu Sheng opened his eyelids, and said, "Speak directly if you have something to say."

There was nothing to talk about between him and Yang Jiali.

Seeing his indifferent attitude, Yang Jiali couldn't help being sad while being angry. She looked at the face of the little girl who was still handsome enough to seduce the little girl in the middle of the year in front of her, as if the years had only made him more settled, but he didn't lose his temperament in an instant. The man she loves makes her ask herself, is it worth it?
Falling in love with him back then, marrying him without hesitation, and doing everything possible to end up like this, was it worth it?
Obviously there are better choices, and you obviously have a warm family, when did it become like this?

Yang Jiali didn't understand, she didn't understand why someone would be so cruel!

Although she married into the Xu family, although the means were disgraceful, she asked herself, she did not feel sorry for the Xu family!She gave birth to two children, and she tried her best to help him with his career, without giving birth to two hearts, and she made no mistakes in public or private!

"Xu Sheng, are you cold-blooded?!"

"Jiali, what are you talking about?"

Xu Sheng pressed his temples with a headache, and didn't want to talk any more.

"I'm making trouble? What can I do? I know about Qianqian, she's just a poor girl! It's fine if you don't help her, but you actually punished your own daughter! Are you still human?"

Xu Sheng restrained his anger and said: "Qianqian's temper needs to be tempered. I can keep her for a while, but I can't keep her forever."

"Our Xu family can't raise our own daughter?!"

"Jiali, the emperor is not as easy as you think!"

"Xu Sheng! Don't you just want to get that child back? Why, you're about to find it, right? Then you can't tolerate my child so much? Don't forget, Qianqian is also your child! You also raised more than a dozen year's child!"

Xu Sheng said exhaustedly: "You misunderstood."

"Have I misunderstood that you know it well! Don't think I don't know that you have been looking for that mother and daughter behind your back! What, you want to recognize your ancestors after you find them?! Let me tell you, it is impossible! With me one day, That bitch can't set foot in the house! Ever!"

"Yang Jiali!"

"I do what I say!"

"enough!"

Xu Sheng stood up with a snap, his face turned cold, and his last bit of patience was exhausted.

"If you're going crazy, then I won't accompany you."

After finishing speaking, Xu Sheng turned around and was about to leave.

"Stop!" Yang Jiali yelled.

Xu Sheng stopped in his tracks.

"For so many years, you have always hated me and what I did back then. You hate me as a murderer. But, Xu Sheng, what about you, what about yourself? If it wasn't because of your attachment to power, would I have succeeded?"

Xu Sheng's back froze instantly.
