Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming

Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Oblivious to Kindness Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Oblivious to Kindness After they finished eating, Shang Feng and Shang Kaiwen had already left the An Family’s home.

“This Bai Xiao really doesn’t know what’s good for her!” Shang Feng was furious. A perfectly fine situation was ruined by her.

An Cheng was someone he had wanted to connect with for a long time. Such an opportunity was rare. He was preparing to open a jewelry store and had already found a suitable location. What he needed was the approval documents, but unfortunately, the leader in charge was impervious to bribery. Although his paperwork wasn’t complete, couldn’t they just issue him the license first and then let him tidy up the documentation afterwards?

The leader outright rejected all attempts at dining and gift-giving, showing no mercy.

Lucky for Shang Feng, he eventually learned that this leader was a former subordinate of An Cheng. By using An Cheng’s name, he finally got to speak with the leader, but the director just smiled and insisted on a phone call from An Cheng. It was obvious he wanted to confirm the relationship between An Cheng and the Shang Family.

“Dad, don’t worry, I still don’t understand! Why is Bai Xiao so resistant to us? I always feel like there’s more to it. If it’s just because of my brother’s sake, my brother is already dead, so any grudge should be gone by now. But the way she looks at me… why is it so chilling?” Now, even Shang Kaiwen didn’t understand Bai Xiao’s attitude towards her.

This was too strange.

She believed she got along well with many people, and nobody disliked her. But it seemed that no matter how hard she tried, Bai Xiao was not just keeping her at arm’s length, but also rejecting her with a polite coldness.

Fuming, Shang Feng got into the car and commanded the driver, “Drive!”

“She’s just being temperamental! Probably because she sees you living so well by my side, she’s reminded of her own suffering and naturally finds you irksome. Such pettiness really shows she’s from the countryside, completely lacking a bigger picture perspective.”

Shang Kaiwen shook her head, deep in thought, “I don’t think that’s it. Envy and hatred—I can’t possibly get those confused. I just don’t understand where the hatred is coming from.”

“No matter what, we need to find a way to make Bai Xiao side with the Shang Family. Otherwise, An Cheng’s status won’t be easy to leverage. We need An Cheng’s name for many things. Not to mention the Jiang Family,” Shang Feng also had a headache.

If she didn’t recognize him, it wouldn’t matter what he claimed. Without Bai Xiao’s approval, no one would believe him no matter how fanciful the tales he spun.

“Let’s think of another way. How about this, we should still put in effort with the An Family. As for the Jiang Family, I’ll give it a try and see if I can strike up a conversation with Jiang Shaoqing. Just hint at a relationship with Bai Xiao subtly—who knows whether it’s true or not!” She was determined, especially regarding Jiang Shaoqing.

This man was the idol of her heart, and the desire to keep him firmly in her grasp compelled her to do something.

Jiang Shaoqing’s pride only allowed him to treat Bai Xiao differently because she was his grandfather’s lifesaver.

This was an opportunity.

“Alright, give it a try, but don’t depreciate yourself. Now that your brother is gone, Dad only has you. You need to be strong; the Shang Family’s hopes are all on you. Don’t disappoint me!” Shang Feng had high expectations for his children! Unfortunately, his son had been a disappointment.

Shang Kaiwen reassured him with a smile, “Dad, rest assured, I understand your concerns. I also hope to help the Shang Family reach greater heights. This time, I will find a way to get him to take me to Yun Province to purchase raw stones, so our family can break into other markets.”

Pleased, Shang Feng nodded. This daughter was different from his son.
