“Alright, I’ll go find her later. Is she here too?” He knew that without a net worth of hundreds of millions, one couldn't even get into this banquet. Both Lin Shanshan and Jiang Letian came from prominent families.
Jiang Letian and Lin Shanshan were both his targets.
Jiang Letian smiled, “She’s here. Send her a message later and lure her to the hotel. Then take photos and send them to me as proof that you two were together.”
Jiang Nuan: “……” How could this child be so wicked?
“Heh heh… Jiang Letian, He Chengyi, you two are truly despicable. Trying to scheme against me? Fat chance. Everything you two just said and did, I’ve already recorded as a video and uploaded it online. Let’s see who dies first?”
Lin Shanshan’s voice suddenly cut in, startling the two into separating abruptly.
Jiang Nuan watched Lin Shanshan approach step by step with a knowing gaze.
This girl was truly daring and responsible for her actions.
But that Jiang Letian wouldn't let her off the hook.
“Lin Shanshan, did you really post it online?” Jiang Letian asked, her voice filled with anxiety and desperation.
“That’s right. You pair of dogs and bitches, trying to ruin me? Dream on.”
She had seen Jiang Letian sneak away from the bodyguards earlier and knew she was looking for He Chengyi.
She laughed mockingly, “Also, Jiang Letian, do you think I’m like you? Throwing myself into any man’s arms? He Chengyi’s motive for approaching us is simple: he wants to marry us and use our family backgrounds to make his future easier. For someone who’s so poor he can’t even afford a suit…”
“How could he possibly marry me? Even if we shamelessly wanted to follow him, my parents wouldn’t allow me to marry him. They’d just deal with him secretly. Your parents are even more cruel than mine. I’m afraid that after tonight’s incident is exposed, your parents might be collecting his corpse tomorrow morning.”
He Chengyi: “……”
This was indeed what he had in mind, but he hadn't expected Lin Shanshan to expose it so brutally.
His family was poor. Even a suit costing a thousand yuan required his parents’ monthly salary. He was unwilling to live an ordinary, unremarkable life. Becoming a son-in-law to a wealthy family was the only shortcut he could think of.
He specifically targeted pure, wealthy girls.
But if this was truly exposed, his university life would be over. He had only one year left before graduation.
“Shanshan, I know you look down on me, but there’s no need to treat me like this, right?” He Chengyi looked at Lin Shanshan with a strange gaze, a murderous intent emanating from him even in the dark.
Lin Shanshan sneered, “What about you is worthy of being looked up to? Your sincerity? Your looks? Your status? Or your character?”
He Chengyi bit his lip tightly.
Lin Shanshan sneered arrogantly. She had long seen through this man’s facade. “Jiang Letian, your father is a mysterious high-ranking official. His profession can’t even be spoken of. Everything is operated by your mother behind the scenes. Tell me, if your mother sees this scene, won’t she get so angry she has a heart attack?”
After Lin Shanshan finished speaking, she took out her phone and sent a message.
Soon, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the alley.
“Quick, quick, quick! Miss is in the alley.”
Lin Shanshan looked at the two, smiling gently as she left.
Jiang Nuan stood motionlessly in the dark, pressing close to the wall, as if she had completely merged with the night.
Soon, Jiang Letian and He Chengyi were surrounded by bodyguards.
“Slap…”
Jiang Nuan heard a loud slap.
“Jiang Letian, you’ve truly disappointed me.”
Jiang Nuan narrowed her eyes slightly. It was Madam Jiang’s voice.
She had actually suspected Madam Jiang when she came to this banquet.
Number One also thought the same. If she couldn't become the General's secretary, becoming Jiang Letian's teacher was also very good. It was better to be prepared with two plans.
“Mom, I…”
“Don’t call me Mom! I raised you, and you’re consorting with this kind of man? How old are you? You just celebrated your eighteenth birthday, and you’re already so impatient to find a man?”
“Mom, don’t talk about me. It’s him! He’s still a university student, specifically here to seduce me and Lin Shanshan. Lin Shanshan and I have a feud. She posted what we were doing online. Mom, quickly stop her, otherwise, it’ll be you who is disgraced.” Jiang Letian couldn’t imagine what would happen if the current scene was really put online; she truly didn’t want to live.
“Foolish girl, I raised you, neglecting your sister’s feelings, and this is how you repay me.”
Madam Jiang, her face filled with fury, raised her hand and slapped her face hard again.
“Ah…” Jiang Letian had never suffered such humiliation. Tears immediately welled up in her eyes.
Madam Jiang had no regard for her feelings. “Take this man away and deal with him. Take Jiang Letian back and lock her up. She’s not allowed to eat for three days, only drink water. When she knows her mistake, then I’ll let her out.”
“Yes, Madam.”
Four bodyguards stepped forward.
He Chengyi quickly took a step back, saying fearfully, “Madam, please spare me this once. I’ll never dare again. As long as you let me go, I’ll be your dog. I’ll do anything you want.”
Jiang Nuan: “……” This place was even more lively than she had anticipated.
Upon hearing this, Madam Jiang looked at He Chengyi with a half-smile. This youthful face, no wonder her daughter liked him.
She smiled meaningfully, “Oh! Alright! Then go find Lin Shanshan now and make her pay for what she did today. Then I’ll believe you can be a dog for me.”
He Chengyi nodded solemnly, “Okay! Madam, I’ll go now.”
Madam Jiang said to the bodyguards, “Take him and watch him do it with your own eyes.”
“Yes, Madam!” The bodyguards led He Chengyi away.
Jiang Nuan stood for a while longer. Hearing that there was no more sound from the alley, she opened her phone and sent a message to Number One, asking him to send people to protect Lin Shanshan.
Lin Shanshan was too impulsive. It would only bring disaster upon herself.
What happened just now was indeed ruinous to a young lady’s reputation.
[Nuan Nuan, received. I’m nearby. Don’t worry, take care of yourself.]
Jiang Nuan: [Mm! This Madam Jiang doesn't seem simple.]
Number One: [She's never been simple. I discovered it two years ago. However, her current desire to do business with Mu Jiuchen is very strange.]
Jiang Nuan didn't find it strange. After all, Mu Jiuchen’s businesses were all over the world. If she hitched a ride with him, she would have endless wealth and prosperity.
Jiang Nuan finally realized why her husband was here tonight.
He had declined several banquets before, all to accompany her at home.
Tsk tsk tsk. Jiang Nuan’s lips curved into a gentle smile.
“Truly my good husband.” No matter how angry he was, he silently supported whatever she wanted to do.
Her heart felt as sweet as if it had been poured into a honey jar.
Jiang Nuan put away her phone and was about to leave when a dark shadow suddenly approached her.
