Chapter 62: Airborne Video
In a dimly lit room with a terrible environment, two immobile elderly people lay on the bed. A woman stood at the head of their bed, pointing at them and yelling:
“What do you think you are now? Still the chairman of Sheng Xia? I’m telling you, even if you can stand up now, Sheng Xia no longer belongs to you.”
“Honestly hand over the things to me. As long as you are alive, the Xia family might still exist. Don’t forget that you have to eat by looking at our faces now. Don’t talk to me about filial piety, are you even human?”
“The dogs I raise understand gratitude better than you! So many years have passed, and you still help that waste, Xia Chenge, with everything! What’s so good about her that she can be there for your final moments?”
“Old undying, you eat my food and live in my house, yet you still favor that short-lived ghost, Xia Mingxuan! I’m telling you, if you don’t hand over the things, Xia Chenge will never have a good day!”
The video was clear, and one could recognize the person yelling as Xia Minglan at a glance. Some sharp-eyed viewers also recognized Old Master Xia and his wife.
They were stunned, unable to imagine what they were seeing.
In the public’s impression, Xia Minglan had always been an elegant noblewoman and a philanthropist praised by everyone. But who would have thought she would treat her own parents like this in private?
Her hysterical expression and gestures were so vicious they sent chills down one’s spine.
If she could treat her own parents like this, how could she be considered kind?
“I can’t imagine Old Master Xia living such a life?”
“Without taking sides, what can a single video clip prove?”
“A series of unexpected events, was the philanthropist just wearing a mask of disguise?”
“Holy crap, I really want to beat up Xia Minglan, she’s so detestable!”
…
Xia Chenge suddenly releasing these videos caught everyone off guard.
She wasn’t in a hurry to destroy Xia Minglan immediately; this was just the beginning.
Upon seeing the video, Xia Minglan couldn’t believe that what happened in the old undying’s room the day she was kicked out of the Xia family had been recorded!
How did Xia Chenge record it? When were cameras installed in the old undying’s room? Xia Minglan felt a chilling fear and immediately sought connections to suppress the videos.
However, the internet spread too quickly; it was beyond human control. No matter how fast Xia Minglan acted, it was too late.
Seeing the increasingly fierce criticism below, Xu Jingyun couldn’t help but angrily say, “Why can’t you do anything right? You’re always causing trouble. Are you not satisfied that our family isn’t chaotic enough?”
“Is that how you speak to your mother?” Xia Minglan was furious that even her daughter was scolding her like this, let alone Xu Jingyi.
Xu Jingyun snorted coldly, “Isn’t it true? Did I say something wrong? Look how bad off we are because of you. Everyone is scolding us. If you hadn’t acted on your own without discussing it with your father, would we have ended up like this?”
“Xu Jingyun, do you know who you’re talking to?” Xia Minglan roared, “I’m your mother!”
Xia Minglan’s shout silenced Xu Jingyun, who turned her head away with a cold expression.
Xia Minglan, enraged, breathed heavily and left in a huff, feeling so stifled she was about to explode.
Before she could even reach the door, Xu Jingyun violently threw her mobile phone to the ground, shattering the new phone.
Hearing the sound, Xia Minglan’s anger intensified. If Xia Chenge were in front of her now, she would choke her to death without hesitation to prevent her from causing further harm.
Xia Chenge was not surprised to receive Xia Minglan’s call and answered cheerfully, “Hello, what’s up?”
“Xia Chenge, I’m warning you, take down the video immediately and issue a clarifying statement, or you’ll regret it!” Xia Minglan said frantically.
Xia Chenge smiled slightly, “Why are you blaming me for everything? Why do you say I posted the video? Moreover, the video just tells the public a fact. This is how you’ve treated your own parents all these years. What clarification do you want me to make?”
“Who else could it be? I really didn’t expect you to be so scheming at such a young age. Do you really think people will believe you if you release these things? Xia Chenge, you’re too naive!”
“You know very well whether I’m naive or not. Besides, you’re so angry right now, doesn’t that mean the video has affected you? One must take responsibility. Why don’t you dare to admit to abusing your own parents? You have to put on a philanthropist’s facade to gain public favor. Do you think everyone is stupid?”
“Xia Chenge, shut up.” Xia Minglan was enraged, “If you want to live a good life, then behave yourself. I warn you, don’t provoke me again and again.”
Xia Chenge scoffed, “What if I provoke you? Haven’t you said enough harsh words? I forgot to tell you, I have many, many more video evidences of you abusing the elderly. We’ll play slowly, and I’ll accompany you to the end!”
“As I said before, you will lose everything you gained in the same way. Enjoy your last bit of comfort, because you will soon fall into hell. Everything you thought you owned will become a reflection in the mirror and the moon in the water!”
With that, Xia Chenge hung up without giving Xia Minglan a chance to reply.
A cornered dog will leap over the wall!
I’ll deal with Xia Minglan first, then slowly deal with Xu Jingyi.
As for Sheng Xia, it’s time for me to prepare to make my move.
Otherwise, what belongs to the Xia family will be renamed!
Xia Minglan called again N times. Xia Chenge didn’t answer or hang up, letting her calls disconnect automatically.
When it comes to patience, Xia Minglan isn’t even qualified to carry her shoes.
Xia Minglan couldn’t get through to Xia Chenge, and for some reason, she couldn’t reach Xu Jingyi either. She was furious and ran around like a headless fly, directly hiring internet trolls to create a narrative and brainwash people.
After the videos were completely blocked, a so-called insider’s exposé suddenly appeared on major media platforms.
The exposé claimed that Xia Chenge was diagnosed with schizophrenia five years ago and had been in a stable condition thanks to Xia Minglan’s meticulous care over the years. However, recently, Xia Chenge had undergone some unknown stimulation, her temperament changed drastically, and her condition worsened.
Even more terrifyingly, while God closed one door, he opened another for Xia Chenge. She was exceptionally talented in certain areas, especially in information technology. The Xia family worried about her being exploited and had never disclosed this, but they never expected Xia Chenge to be instigated by someone.
All the videos were edited by Xia Chenge and were taken to be used as a tool to attack Sheng Xia. Xia Minglan remained silent and didn’t explain to protect Xia Chenge…
The exposé portrayed Xia Minglan as a woman who endured and remained strong for her family. It claimed that all recent events in the Xia family were orchestrated by someone in the shadows, and Xia Chenge was merely a tool being used!
