The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

Xiao Yue was only three years older than Mo Li. The moment she entered university, she had been working diligently in her family’s company. Her two older brothers did not have much time for the family so it was Xiao Yue who helped Xiao Ming the most. She would never disobey him but with one misstep at the charity ball, she was cast off to the side.

So everything is gone just like that? In his heart, I’m even less than that lesbian, Xiao Xin? I’m now just a tool of reproduction for him? Xiao Yue was unwilling to accept this fate which was assigned to her!

She turned to Mo Yun who was chatting cheerfully with Xiao Yuan. She deserved to be by his side. In the entire Pearl River, no other woman was worthy of his attention than her. But now? Before she had given up, Xiao Ming had already given up on her.

Xiao Yue bit her lips. There were many things that she was excluded from within the Xiao Family, because one, she was female; two, she was not Mrs. Xiao’s real daughter.

Different from Mo Yi who was more happy-go-lucky, Xiao Ming had great ambitions and he didn’t mind going under the table to achieve his goals. The Xiao Family looked perfect on the surface but underneath, it was all rotten. Xiao Ming first married Mrs. Xiao and then entangled himself with Xiao Yue’s birth mother.

Mrs. Xiao handled everything at home and Xiao Yue’s mother helped Xiao Ming at the company. Xiao Yue’s mother status rose as Xiao Ming’s business expanded.

However, Xiao Yue’s mother spelled her own doom after she gave birth to Xiao Yue. Xiao Ming naturally wouldn’t have the woman around to ruin his reputation. So Xiao Ming sent Xiao Yue’s mother abroad soon after the birth. Xiao Yue was brought up by Mrs. Xiao or Guan Yue since she was 2. To the outsiders, they claimed that Xiao Yue was Guan Yue’s second daughter.

Speaking of Guan Yue, Xiao Yue’s eyes darkened. Guan Yue came from a cultured and rich family. On the surface, she was virtuous, educated, and polite. She was a woman of principles and she was always reasonable. However, Xiao Yue also knew that Guan Yue was the one who suggested Xiao Ming to send Xiao Yue’s mother overseas way back when. Guan Yue would not allow the presence of an illegitimate daughter to stain the family name.

Seeing Guan Yue laughing and chatting with Jiang Yao, Xiao Yue lamented the fate of her lonely mother.

Xiao Yue thus shared a rather business-like relationship with her ‘parents’. If not for the fact that Xiao Ming held all the wealth and asset of the Xiao Family, Xiao Yue would have left this home already.

Since Xiao Ming had given her a new role, then Xiao Yue decided she would play along with it for now. “Father, it is my fault to have disappointed you.” Xiao Yue walked to Xiao Ming’s side and said sincerely, “But don’t you worry. As long as you are willing to give me one more chance, I will help regain the Xiao Family name. I am working very hard at the company. This season I’ve helped the company earn 30 percent more net profit compared to last season. Even though I am incomparable to big sister, I am not necessarily worse than Mo Li. I will not disappoint you.”

To be frank, Xiao Ming was not really spoiled for choices. His two other sons didn’t have interest to inherit his company so as unwilling as he was, Xiao Yue was indeed his only hope. Seeing how obedient and sincere she was, Xiao Ming let out a sigh of resignation. “You don’t need to push yourself too much. As long as you put in the effort, the Xiao family is still willing to support and assist you.”

Mo Yi came over with a glass of wine and invited Xiao Ming to join him. Despite the promises given by Xiao Ming, once a better opportunity came, Xiao Ming immediately abandoned Xiao Yue to join Mo Yi.

Xiao Yue gritted her teeth. She looked around and was going to find Mo Yun when she heard Jiang Yao whisper to Guan Yue, “I heard that your Yue Er is walking very close to Mr. Xu recently. Do I hear wedding bells?”

Xiao Yue’s eyes turned cold. An amused smile appeared on Guan Yue’s face. “You always like to play a match maker. The two children are only getting to know each other. We better don’t talk too much about this, I’m afraid to jinx it!” But then Guan Yue thought about it and added, “Plus, things are really changing. You know that Yue Er has always had a crush on your Mo Yun. Unfortunately, they don’t seem to match each other. It is quite fortunate that this Xu boy comes along. Perhaps it’s his age, Xiao Ming is desperate for a grandchild already. The boy is a civil servant and is quite honest. To be frank, Xiao Ming is pushing this relationship more than the children themselves…”

Xiao Yue’s expression was ugly but she knew she couldn’t let her emotions show. She took a few deep breaths and glared fiercely at Mo Li. If not for this bitch, this wouldn’t have happened to me! I would still be Mo Yun’s match and Xiao Ming wouldn’t try to pair me off with this peasant boy! Grandchild, grandchild, grandchild, am I nothing more than a birthing machine to them?

If not for the fact that she was a girl and she had to stay within the Xiao Family for the family influence, Xiao Yue wouldn’t have taken the initiative to please Xiao Ming.
