Chapter 1262: Both internal and external trouble


    Ye Wanwan poured a ss of water for Xu Yi in the living room and frankly asked, "What''s the Si


    family''s current situation?"


    Xu Yi ced down his cup and looked at Ye Wanwan, sighing. "Miss Wanwan, to tell you the truth... I


    knew something major would happen in the Si family ever since Ninth Master disappeared. Too many


    people were defiant of Ninth Master. People didn''t dare to act impetuously when Ninth Master was


    here, so everything was calm. But after Ninth Master disappeared... It''s like a volcano has erupted and


    things can''t be fixed."


    Ye Wanwan understood what Xu Yi was saying.


    Many higher-ups of the Si family feared Si Yehan, so Si Yehan was able to suppress them when he


    was here.

    However, Si Yehan had disappeared for many days without a single word. His fate was still known, as


    though he had disappeared into thin air. The Si family previously mobilized arge amount of


    manpower and financial resources to search for Si Yehan without any sess.


    Now, many higher-ups of the Si family thought an ident happened to Si Yehan. There wouldn''t be


    zero news of him otherwise.


    "Si Mingli and his family returned earlier... Quite a number of higher-ups in the n support Si Mingli''s


    bid to be the new patriarch of the Si family... The minority who disagreed didn''t end up well." Xu


    Yi''s brows were deeply furrowed.


    Ye Wanwan wasn''t surprised about this. Si Mingli fled from China out of his fear of Si Yehan. Now that


    Si Yehan disappeared with his fate unknown, Si Mingli had nothing to fear anymore, so he took


    advantage of this prime opportunity to return to the Si family and overturn the Si family...


    "How''s Grandmother?" Ye Wanwan asked.


    Even without Si Yehan, Grandmother''s prestige in the Si family was immense, so she should be able to


    suppress those higher-ups for a short amount of time.


    "*Sigh*..." Xu Yi sighed at the mention of Grandmother. "Her situation doesn''t look too good. She hasn''t


    woken up yet."


    Ye Wanwan''s expression turned serious when she heard that.


    Based on what Xu Yi said, the current Si family was wrought with both internal and external trouble.


    What was most fatal was the changing internal structure of the Si family.


    The higher-ups who originally sided with Si Yehan were nearly all eliminated.


    After Si Mingli returned to the Si family, he obtained support from a majority of the higher-ups and gave


    those higher-ups extremely tempting terms.


    Si Yehan''s staunch loyalists moved to the opposition. Moreover, the opposers who had unyielding


    attitudes and vehemently opposed Si Mingli all disappeared without a trace one day ago, their fates


    unknown.


    However, Xu Yi knew full well that those opposers who were loyal to Si Yehan, as well as the higher-


    ups who wanted to fight for the position of the patriarch, were all secretly dealt with by Si Mingli...


    "Miss Wanwan, the situation with the Si family is too dangerous... I want to find an opportunity to


    extract Old Madam from the Si residence..." Xu Yi said with a sigh.


    Ye Wanwan frowned lightly and said, "Since things are like that, I''ll go back to the Si residence with you


    and bring Grandmother to my ce here."


    Grandmother would definitely be in danger after Si Mingli took control of the Si family...


    Xu Yi promptly shook his head at her suggestion. "Miss Wanwan, you can''t... You absolutely can''t! Si


    Mingli hates you to the bone. Si Mingli is already in control of the Si family now. It''s too risky for you to


    return to the Si family right now. At that time, even you won''t leave unharmed, let alone taking Old


    Madam away!"


    Ye Wanwan didn''t refute Xu Yi''s words. She knew her enmities with Si Mingli.


    Si Mingli probably hated her to the bone.
