Capítulo 15: Face slap

The mischievous look shared by the siblings did not miss the eyes of their parents and grandparents. The group of elders also shared glances of pity within them as they watched the siblings reuniting again after years. This was a scene that they wished to happen for about five years but when it actually seems like its happening, the group of elders were not sure whether they wanted to laugh in happiness or cry in despair for the future of the Meng family and also their home.

Of course, they are not exaggerating. They had seen Xia Liena in her most mischievous times and that is not a nice for the well being of aged elders and also, the environment.

They still remember the time when Xia Liena and her siblings poured various colours of paints over Xia Jinhai, her grandfather, and laughed in the side. When Xia Jinhai asked for the reason, Xia Liena replied with 'Old Man, your life seemed so boring and dull to me, that I could not bear to watch and wanted to add some colours in your life. Also, I have been asking for you to take me to the amusement park just to see a clown but I haven't been there yet. So, I got curious and wanted to make you a clown to see it'. Xia Jinhai was so furious that he was blood red in colour.

The power of unity of the siblings is far worse as they are the only one who had the ability to make Xia Jinhai erupt in fury. And because of it, the elders never dared to punish those sibling severely in fright of the consequences. Luckily for the, the siblings were very mature for their age and they don't usually make troubles unless they are pranks.

As Xia Jinhai was reminiscing the past, Xia Liena was already ready to pull the mother and daughter duo's legs. She had been watching this pair for a long time as they tried their best in acting all elegant and noble. But a raven can never be a white swan.

"Dad, would you mind introducing the quests to me?" Xia Liena asked innocently as she doesn't know who they are at all. Hearing this, her grandparents and brothers were so shocked that they all looked at her weirdly as if they were staring at some ghosts. But who could blame them? Xia Liena clearly knows who they are but she still asked that question, making them believe that the good times for those two are coming to an end as Xia Liena started her plan.

"Young miss, please don't ask this question to him and try to hurt him because of us. It may be inappropriate for him to introduce us to you as his current and legitimate wife is sitting next to him. It is my fault for entering this household just for the sake of giving the best life to my daughter. Meng Xiuran always wanted a life with her father, and I couldn't bear it anymore after seeing her sadness of not having a father. That's why I bought her to her father. She does not know the etiquettes properly as she did not have the chance to live in luxury unlike her siblings, So, I hope that you can help and teach your sister. Also you can call me Aunt even though I prefer you call me mom as you are Xia Jingren's daughter." Meng Xingran was worth her reputation. She is indeed very cunning.

In one breath, she managed to put blame on her whole family. She said that she was not sensible enough as she asked an 'inappropriate' question. Then she managed to indirectly say that her mother is just the 'current' wife and that sooner or later, she will become the mistress of the house. Then she also 'tried' to gain pity by saying that her daughter was suffering because she did not have father from a very young age. Meng Xingran also successfully managed to piss Xia Liena off as she said that her daughter did not have etiquettes because she did not live in an environment like the Xia siblings or else Meng Xiuran will be a phoenix. And finally, she put on a show of the best stepmother in the world by saying that as long as the child is Xia Jingren's, she will see them as their child. But at the same time, if Xia Liena who is the current leader of the clan called her as 'mom', it will successfully shake Celeste's position in the house and it will be easier for her to gain the title of the mistress of the house.

To say that Xia Liena was angry will be the understatement of the year. She was livid. But fortunately for them, Xia Liena did not start her revenge plan yet. She was just going to toy with them for a while before she start her actual revenge. Until then, the duo will have to face a lot of face slaps and embarrassment.

After all, Xia Liena's current mission is to find her man and hug his thigh. She was never going to leave him. Even if her ordered her to leave him, she will refuse adamantly and hug him even more tighter... Xia Liena soon caught her trailing thoughts before she start to daydream about her man again. This was one of her favourite hobby since she was reborn in to the past. She quickly put him at the back of her head and turned to the duo to give them a delicate face slap. She didn't want to scare them away on the first day itself. After all, she was a lazy tigress who was waiting for her prey to get to her closer by itself so that it can slowly yet painfully kill it.

"I am sorry but I think that we have a major misunderstanding between us. First of all, I did not know the relationship between you and my father. So I don't get how my question is inappropriate. Because as far as I know, one can not learn without asking a question. Second of all, I would like to request you to change your wordings. My mother is not the current and legitimate wife of Xia Jingren. She is and will be the mistress of the house.

Third, I would like to correct your view about the Xia family. We, the Xia siblings, did not live in luxury like you thought us to be. From childhood, the five of us lived together in England in a very normal house. We were only given a small amount of pocket money like the middle class children out there. Unlike your daughter, we did not have the luxury to live together with our parents for a long time. And sorry to inform you this, we never went to an etiquette class. Our manners are natural.

Finally let me correct your world view. My mother is perfectly well and alive. So, I don't see the reason why I have to call you mom. From your words, I understood that you are saying that she is my half-sister. But please, look at her and us. In what way does she look similar to my dad. She doesn't look a lot like you and she have no resemblance with my father. Are you sure that she is a Xia? She looks more like a nouveau rich than a royalty like us." All were said in one breath.

Xia Liena really did try to suppress her anger and keep her words as polite as possible. But the moment she started talking, her words started tricking her and got more offensive as it progressed. She could clearly see the result as she continued speaking. The way they went red to green to blue to purple to white is just so satisfying. She loved it. Not only were the mother and daughter pair embarrassed, they were face slapped to the point of no return that their face travelled all the way from red colour to white colour.

Seeing their reaction, Xia Liena's whole family was inwardly roaring in laughter. They couldn't laugh out loud, but they were clearly dancing in their head as they kept giving mocking glances towards the duo. Even the butler and the maids were so happy that they felt like floating in the clouds. They were happy that their clan leader stood for her family and bullied...erm....taught lesson to the duo. After all, the mother-daughter pair couldn't talk against any one in the family. So, they kept attacking the poor butler and maids.


Capítulo 16: Another stack of papers

After Xia Liena's little speech, no one dared to talk in the table. Her family was afraid that they will laugh out aloud once they opened their mouth to talk while the other two were simply too embarrassed and tongue-tied to even utter a word against her. And they dare not insult her, knowing that she held absolute power over the clan and that she could kick them out of the Xia family mansion any minute.

After finishing the dinner, Xia Liena did not wait for her family. She went straight to her bedroom. She was dead tired. She did not have enough rest since she just finished her mission. Therefore, she was knocked out cold the moment she laid on the bed.

Liena did not wake up until nine in the morning which was unusual for her. She never woke up so late ever since she joined the military camp. Waking up groggily in the early morning, she sat on the bed recalling her moments with her family the previous day. She was delighted. Changing her attitude towards her family may have possible changed the past to a better ending or worst. She hoped its the former. But Xia Liena knew that she won't give up without a fight if he family encounter any danger in this life.

Taking a shower and changing into a better clothes, she decided to go to Glory world to continue the work from the previous day. Donning a burgundy pants that reached her ankle with black shirt paired with a burgundy blazer, Liena left her face free of make up but applied a baby pink lip gloss of her lips which complimented her skin tone. Though she was already rather tall, combined with the burgundy five inch high heels, her already long legs looked even longer. She was not that interested on wearing accessories. But to finish off her look, she chose to wear a pair of maroon studs that looked like it was a set with the anklets she wore on her ankles. Finally, she wore her Patek Phillippe's watch which remained her favorite ever since she bought it.

After gazing at her reflection on the mirror with satisfaction, Xia Liena went to Xion's room only to find him sleeping like a baby above Lian who was clearly struggling to breathe even in his sleep. Seeing this heartwarming but hilarious scene, Xia Liena took a picture and set it as her lock screen while she continued to giggle at her twin brothers. She wished she could join them as well but duty calls.

She wasn't so heartless enough to disturb the moments between the brothers. If one of them died while either suffocating or after being beaten up by the other one, she wouldn't be held responsible. Gently walking with extreme caution towards the rather classy looking table, she fished out a Post-it note to order Xion to come to the company once he finished cuddling his brother. Liena was certain that Xion will become infuriated to the latter part of the sentence than to the former. He, who was considered to be one of the eligible bachelor in the whole of the country, will not be able to admit the fact that he was hugging or rather suffocating his brother to death for a whole night. And for sure, even if he does not want to come to the company, he will definitely come there just to argue about this statement.

With great satisfaction on finishing what she came for, Liena set off from the house without much hassles. When she arrived at Glory World, the company was already buzzing with employees. The news of her return was already spread through the company through their group chats and forum and the employees were expecting some surprise visits to their departments. In their words, if their she-devil boss knew that they were slacking off during her absence, they would be punished heavily or worse, get fired. Though for some employees it might seem that getting fired is not much big of an issue, Glory World holds the position of one of the most influential company in the country with its branches stretching out to different foreign continents. To be fired out of such company is equal to losing the opportunity to work in major companies for the rest of their life. Unless the company wants to offend Glory World, no one in their right mind would hire them.

Without sparing a look at her employees, Liena confidently strutted towards the presidential elevator. Pressing the very last flour on the whole building, she patiently waited for the elevator and got on it as the elevator opened with a soft, almost inaudible bell sound. Within a minute, she was at the top floor facing all five of her secretaries. Of Course, knowing that her personal assistant is roaming around somewhere in the same floor, she dared not stay anywhere in his vision and directly escaped to her office after greeting her employees.

Though it seemed like she completed a lot of paperwork the previous day, she was again welcomed with another huge stack on her table when she entered the office. Once again, Liena couldn't help but curse her twin in her mind and mentally kick him Saturn.

Resignedly, she walk to to her desk and started doing the papers one by one. Seconds passed. Minutes passed. And so did the hours. After sorting out half out the stack, she lifted her head to look at the time only to realize that it was long past the lunch time. Though she couldn't feel the hunger while she was working, the moment she relaxed herself a little, she found herself in extreme hunger. Fortunately for her, on the corner of the table was a lunch box left behind by her assistant, Qi Chengzhi, at some point of the day which she didn't notice. Inwardly praising him for his attentiveness, she happily started eating the fried rice left by him.

Just as she was eating her lunch, her brother stormed into the room with a rather furious expression on his face. Seems like he did read the note.

As expected, he was infuriated but one thing that made her furious looking at the comical face in front of her is that this guy had been sleeping till evening while she had to work even harder than a regular employee because this idiot of her brother chose to slack during the work time. If it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.

She slowly set aside the now empty bowl, and directly lifted her head to glare straight at his eyes. Seeing such deadly aura and stare from his sister, Xion soon forgot the reason for his anger and immediately became the most obedient puppy in front of his owner. Just as she was about to open her mouth to issue punishment for this guy, she was suddenly faced with an attack of one of the most cutest, tearful puppy dog eyes from the one and only top international idol, Xion.
