Chapter 39: Still Claiming Injustice After Taking Advantage

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

She was not a heartless person.

However, there were some things that she would never be able to hold in her hands in peace for the rest of her life.

For example, Yi Tian’s motherly love.

She did not dare to accept what she had not fought for.

Jiang Yi’s stiff back betrayed her. Yi Tian missed her daughter dearly and had not noticed this abnormality even after not seeing her for a few days.

The consecutive questions made Jiang Yi feel the same pressure.

For example, she touched the back of her hand and said, “You’ve lost weight.”

Jiang Yi sighed slightly. “My weight is normal.”

Yi Tian asked again, “Why is your hair permed?”

“It’s too long. I wanted to do it.”

Her daily concern and greetings seemed normal. What was abnormal was that she was someone who had replaced someone else’s daughter.

“It looks nice.”

Yi Tian’s gaze was like the moonlight of the property management, soft and cool.

But Jiang Yi didn’t like it.

The feeling of being forced to open up made her feel like she had nowhere to run.

Not far away, Fu Xiting and Jiang Chuan stood in the courtyard. The two of them looked at each other silently. Jiang Chuan stared at Fu Xiting with murderous intent.

He didn’t hide it at all.

“Chairman Fu, why do you have to do this?”

Fu Xiting thought to himself that these two people were indeed siblings. Even their words were so similar, and their tone did not change at all.

Jiang Chuan and Jiang Yi not only looked similar, but their personalities were also somewhat similar.

“The Jiang family is really unique. When they need my help, they come to me and then let me take the blame. I think I know why Jiang Yi hates me so much. It’s all thanks to the Jiang family.”

Jiang Chuan choked.

Fu Xiting hated two-faced people the most.

This was the feeling the Jiang family gave him at this moment.

Fu Xiting sneered and reached out his hand to Fang Chi, who handed him a cigarette.

The man lit a cigarette with a lighter and gently smoked it. He looked at Jiang Chuan and said, “If Mr. Jiang wants to end this now, it’s not impossible.”

Fu Xiting’s original intention was to find an obedient person to occupy Mrs. Fu’s position. After spending a few days together with Jiang Yi, she was not the best candidate.

The Jiang family indirectly transmitted their helpless thoughts to Jiang Yi.

Fu Xiting had seen many dirty things in wealthy families.

However, this was the first time he had seen someone from the Jiang family complaining in front of him after taking advantage of their daughter..

Selling a daughter and pretending to be pitiful?

Not bad at all!

It would have been fine if Jiang Yi was a well-behaved person, but this girl was so arrogant.

Jiang Chuan choked and looked at Fu Xiting with some curiosity.

Fu Xiting curled his lips and tapped the cigarette ash lightly. “Fang Chi, send the Jiang family off.”

“What does Mr. Fu mean?”

“Can’t you tell? I don’t like your Jiang family anymore.”

Fu Xiting’s tone was calm, but there was arrogance in his calmness.

“Mr. Fu likes our Jiang family when he needs us, and throws us aside when he doesn’t?”

“Don’t think too highly of yourself. If it weren’t for your Jiang family, do you think I would have taken a fancy to you? It’s rare to see a family selling their daughter while pretending to be pitiful. If you get benefits, you should be honest. Don’t pretend to be a victim after getting benefits. In Jiang Yi’s words, I should sue you for fraud!”

Jiang Chuan’s face was dark as he stared at Fu Xiting. “Chairman Fu thinks he’s an innocent victim?”

“What else could it be?” Fu Xiting retorted.

“If Chairman Fu is an innocent victim, then we are not fish on a stick.”

The smile on Fu Xiting’s lips did not diminish. When he stared at Jiang Chuan, his gaze was filled with mockery.

“Fang Chi, ask them to leave.”

Since Fu Xiting had already made up his mind, he would not suddenly change it.

Jiang Yi and Yi Tian were having a mother-daughter conversation in the living room when Fang Chi suddenly came in. He looked at Jiang Yi and nodded slightly. “Young Madam, Sir asked me to send you off.”

Jiang Yi was slightly stunned.

He looked at Fang Chi in confusion.

“Please!” Fang Chi turned slightly and pointed to the side to let Jiang Yi pass.

“Mr. Fu agreed to let me leave?”

In Jiang Yi’s impression, Fu Xiting was not an easy person to talk to. She had been mercilessly rejected several times when she opened her mouth, and today, this sudden relent was not necessarily a good thing.

“What he means is that Miss Jiang doesn’t have to come in the future.”

Jiang Yi was speechless.

In the courtyard, when Jiang Yi and Yi Tian came out, Jiang Chuan was stunned for a moment. He had thought that Fu Xiting was just saying it, but he did not expect it to be true.

Jiang Chuan looked at Jiang Yi and her daughter. Jiang Yi stood on the steps of the main residence and looked at Fu Xiting. Such a strange three way relationship was broken.

Fu Xiting was wearing headphones. He was wearing a khaki windbreaker and white shirt, which made him look high-spirited, tall and handsome.

The breeze blew past, making his clothes flutter.

When Jiang Ze came, he saw this scene.

Fu Xiting’s silence was interrupted by Jiang Ze’s words. He glanced sideways at Jiang Ze and raised his hand to shake the cigarette ash in the air. The temperament of a businessman made him extremely cold. “Mr. Jiang, you came at the right time. Take her back! I can’t afford to provoke the Jiang family.”

“Mr. Fu…” Jiang Ze tensed up and looked at Fu Xiting pleadingly.

“Since Miss Jiang is here, let’s make some things clear. In the beginning, the deal between me and the Jiang family did not require marriage. It was Mr. Fu and Old Master Fu who sent their child to me as trading goods. They took advantage of her and even instilled in Miss Jiang an involuntary thought. They let Miss Jiang abuse her power in front of me and treated me as a fool.”

Heh— Fu Xiting casually tapped the cigarette ash again, and there was a mocking smile on his lips that no one else could understand. “Mr. Jiang received the benefits, and I suffered. Does Mr. Jiang think I’m a lousy recycling station?”

“Chairman Fu, we didn’t have such thoughts.” Jiang Ze’s tone was anxious, wanting to clarify something.

Fu Xiting interrupted him coldly. “You just need to answer yes or no.”

Jiang Ze’s gaze shifted from Fu Xiting to Jiang Yi. The pleading in his eyes turned into conflict, followed by guilt. It changed bit by bit, and Jiang Yi took it all in.

Her hand that was hanging by her side tightened slightly. She could tell that Fu Xiting felt that she was disobedient.

She had caused him trouble and wanted to abandon her, a disobedient chess piece. As for Jiang Ze, he did not want to see this outcome.

Fu Xiting was forcing the Jiang family into a corner today. It was obvious that he wanted the Jiang family to know that he had the right and ability to replace them.

Disobedient people were useless to him.

He was beating up the Jiang family!

He wanted the Jiang family to make a choice. Should they continue to be obedient or be abandoned?

“Yes…” After a long while, Jiang Ze said with a trembling voice.

Jiang Yi knew everything long ago, and she didn’t have much feelings for Jiang Ze and his wife to begin with. Uncomfortable? That feeling didn’t exist.

However, when she found out, she could not help but feel sad.

A woman who stood at the peak of the new era had become a sacrificial pawn of the family and dragged into a power play.
