Chapter 248: Chapter 248: Unveiling One’s Origins
Cheng Li had finally seen Jiang Xue, how could she just let her go inside like that? So, when Jiang Xue was about to enter, she quickly reached out and grabbed her sleeve.
"Little Xue, wait a moment."
"Anything else?" Jiang Xue turned her head to look at Cheng Li, then pulled her sleeve back, glaring coldly at her.
"Jiang Xue, don’t you want to know how I got this bracelet?"
"Not interested." Jiang Xue shook her head. Although she was surprised that Cheng Li had a bracelet exactly like hers, she wasn’t curious.
"What if I said this bracelet is related to you?" Cheng Li suddenly said. Her bracelet was given to her by Mrs. Cheng, who said it was an heirloom. It was originally a pair, and the other one was with Mrs. Cheng’s sister.
But now, the other bracelet was on Jiang Xue’s wrist, so Cheng Li suspected that Jiang Xue was related to the sister Mrs. Cheng mentioned.
And obviously, Mrs. Jiang was not Mrs. Cheng’s sister. Otherwise, Mrs. Cheng wouldn’t have failed to recognize her.
Cheng Li suspected that Jiang Xue was not a child of the Jiang Family, which is why she said the bracelet was related to Jiang Xue. Coupled with the fact that Jiang Mingzhu resembled Jiang Xue so much, and Jiang Mingzhu wanted to get rid of Jiang Xue, she felt that Jiang Xue might very well be Jiang Mingzhu’s sister.
After hearing Cheng Li’s words, Jiang Xue didn’t have much reaction. But Mrs. Jiang’s face immediately changed, and she shouted at Cheng Li, "Cheng Li, stop talking nonsense here."
Seeing Mrs. Jiang’s reaction, Cheng Li became more convinced of her suspicion. However, she didn’t come today to reveal Jiang Xue’s background but to lure Jiang Xue out to deal with her.
So, she ignored Mrs. Jiang and looked at Jiang Xue, saying, "Jiang Xue, don’t you want to know why I have an identical bracelet?"
If at first, Jiang Xue wasn’t interested in where the bracelet came from, seeing Cheng Li’s attitude now, she felt a slight interest.
However, she didn’t show it and instead coldly glanced at Cheng Li, saying, "I don’t!"
"You?" Cheng Li didn’t expect Jiang Xue to be so unfazed, getting furious. So she glared at her and loudly said, "Jiang Xue, you’re such a fool. I’m telling you, you’re not Jiang Mingfeng’s daughter at all."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Jiang’s face instantly looked terrible, panic rising in her heart, as she shouted at Cheng Li, "Cheng Li, shut your mouth. Spouting nonsense all day, get out!"
"What, did I hit the nail on the head, so you want to kick me out?" Cheng Li didn’t care much, she was all in today.
If Jiang Xue had been sensible, she didn’t want to expose her background so soon. But since she wasn’t, she had no choice but to take this step.
"You?" Mrs. Jiang was furious, the secret they had kept for so many years had been exposed by Cheng Li. If Jiang Xue knew she wasn’t their daughter, what would she do?
Would she ignore them like before? Or would she just throw them out?
After all, the house now was bought by Jiang Xue.
Of course, what she feared most was that Jiang Xue would blame them for deceiving her. So at this moment, Mrs. Jiang was extremely afraid, not even having the courage to look at Jiang Xue.
Father Jiang had been sitting inside the house, he didn’t miss the commotion outside. It’s just that his legs were inconvenient, and hearing Cheng Li’s voice somewhat annoyed him, so he didn’t come out.
But he never expected that Cheng Li would reveal Jiang Xue’s background just like that. At this point, he couldn’t sit still, so he stood up and walked toward the door.
