Yu Juanzhou didn't look good the whole way when he sent Yu Nian home. Qiao Min worked overtime for a long time. After hearing that they went to Jiang's house in the morning, she stopped resting and drove to Yu Nian's house at the same time.
After entering the house, Yu Juanzhou said, "Aren't you going to explain something to me?"
Yu Nian washed his hands and looked helpless when he came out, "I just wanted to tell you about this in the car, but what about you? You made such a long face, what else could I say?"
Yu Juanzhou looked unhappy and sat down on the sofa, "Okay, you say it and I listen."
Just as Yu Nian was about to speak, someone knocked on the door.
Qiao Min came very quickly. As soon as she entered the door, she asked in a hurry, "How is it? Has the old lady of the Jiang family relented? If the Jiang family still doesn't nod, I will find a few big Vs to create some public opinion and put pressure on her." .”
"Relax, don't bother yourself." Yu Nian said quickly.
Qiao Min was quite excited, "So you have finally completely cut off your relationship with Jiang Ze? Then you have to celebrate. Now that Ji Zi's matter is making a big fuss, the most important thing is that you can escape unscathed."
Yu Nian thought for a while and said, "It's not like we have completely broken off the relationship. Mrs. Jiang is a sweetheart and she may also feel that she owes me, so she accepts me as her granddaughter."
Qiao Min raised her eyebrows and said, "You won't suffer any loss. What a good thing."
Yu Juanzhou sat on the sofa and snorted coldly.
Qiao Min took a look, what does this mean?
"Do you think Mrs. Jiang doesn't recognize you?" Qiao Min smiled, "You are more valuable than your younger brother, so what does that mean?"
In the past, Yu Juanzhou had long been joking, especially with Qiao Min, and he would not pretend to be serious. But this time he didn't respond, he just looked ugly.
When Qiao Min saw this posture, she thought something was wrong.
"What's going on? Tell me quickly!"
-
After Yu Juanzhou and Yu Nian left the Jiang family, Mrs. Jiang couldn't restrain her anger and scolded Jiang Niantai's family again, especially Jiang Ze. The old lady hated him with anger when she saw him like that.
Pointing at him, his fingers were trembling, "Now the family law is gone, but if Fan is still there, I will kill you, an unworthy descendant!"
After all, Tang Hui cared about her son, so she begged the old lady, "You have never seen that Ji Zi. She is young and careless. When she went to see me, the monitoring equipment was on. Old lady, what is our Azhi thinking?" To be honest, how could any of the children who grew up with him be so thoughtful? Ji Zi is very resourceful, but our Ah Ze was deceived for a moment."
"Have you been deceived for a moment?" Mrs. Jiang became even more angry when she heard this. "He is the eldest grandson of the Jiang family. How old is he to know people and do things? You want to live under your father's wings all your life. Is that so? A branch of the Jiang family as old as you has already been flexing its muscles in the headquarters! What do they want? You don’t know what they want? With your current fate, not only is it hard to get married with the Yu family, but you also have a child outside. How do you get the people on the board of directors to trust you? How do you think you can take on important responsibilities when you join the headquarters?"
Jiang Ze lowered his head and said, "Grandma, I won't marry Ji Zi. In the worst case, I'll wait until the child is born and take her back to the Jiang family to raise her."
"Nonsense!" Old Mrs. Jiang was so angry that she slammed the table. "Are you going to get married now if you say you don't want to marry? People are holding your hand! You think well, you can wait until the child is born and take it back to the Jiang family. With such a scheming woman, do you think she won’t use her children to make a fuss? She even dares to offend the Jiang family, do you think she is confident or just desperate? No matter what the reason is, she is willing to risk everything!"
Jiang Ze pursed his lips tightly, not to mention how ugly his face was.
Tang Hui heard Mrs. Jiang's intention and asked in horror, "Mom, you're not going to let that Ji Zi in, are you?"
"Otherwise? What else can you do? I can think of all the ways you can use, but what's the result? The other party can't get in, right?" Mrs. Jiang was dissatisfied, "You can't hurt people's lives, right? Then there is a big shortage. Come on, our Jiang family can’t do this kind of thing!”,
Tang Hui said hurriedly, "Mom, I have never thought about it this way. Even if you don't care about that adult, the thing in your belly is very likely to be of the Jiang family's blood."
Mrs. Jiang held her breath, and after a long time looked at Jiang Niantai, who had been silent, "Boss."
"Mom, tell me."
"You should resolve your family's matter as soon as possible. You can't let public opinion fly. Even though I don't go to the headquarters, I know very well that the board of directors has already started to take action, right?" Mrs. Jiang's expression was serious.
·Jiang Niantai didn't hide it, "Yes."
There is only one reason why the board of directors got angry: the stock price was turbulent.
Otherwise, those people would not mind other people's business.
"You know what the consequences will be. The stock price cannot be stable, and your position may not last long." Mrs. Jiang said coldly.
Jiang Niantai calmed down and said, "Yes, Mom, don't worry, this matter will be resolved as soon as possible."
Ji Zi went to a coffee shop completely bare-faced and fully equipped. It was a very private and niche shop hidden deep in an alley. It never advertised to the outside world. The only way to find this place was through acquaintances and word of mouth. There is a small courtyard filled with birds and flowers, with an insulating glass layer above the head. Even if it is snowing heavily or pouring rain outside, guests can sit in the small courtyard leisurely, sip coffee and chat. The entire courtyard adopts a constant temperature system. No matter it is cold in winter or scorching hot, as long as you enter Everything is comfortable here.
The female owner of this cafe is a classmate of Maura. The two had a very good relationship when they were students. The female owner was engaged in art trading business overseas. Later, she achieved financial freedom and returned to China to open such a cafe. It was purely for enjoyment. Life, so whether the cafe makes money or not is not important to the female boss.
But things in the world are often like this. Flowers planted intentionally do not bloom, but willows planted unintentionally create shade. This is the case in cafes. They open until late every day, and there is an endless stream of customers here.
The cafe is closed today, and a big sign is hung on the red painted door. Customers who originally wanted to come here to drink coffee saw the sign and left with a look of disappointment.
Inside the red lacquer gate, in the quiet courtyard filled with the fragrance of flowers, the warm aroma of coffee overflows.
After the female boss served the coffee, she went back to the back hall to prepare the holiday menu. In addition to Ji Zi, there was also Maura in the whole courtyard.
Ji Zi did not drink coffee and ordered a glass of vegetable juice. It was nutritious and she did not worry about excessive sugar intake.
Maura ordered an Americano, which was delicious.
"I see that Mrs. Jiang's attitude is very firm, and I'm very worried..."
After meeting Maura, Ji Zi looked like she was when she met Tang Hui. She was no longer determined to win, and no longer relaxed. She had a sad look on her face and a tired look in her eyes.
Maura took a sip of coffee and put down the cup, "Are you worried that they will deal with you?"
"Yes." Ji Zi said anxiously, "After all, the opponent is the Jiang family and has a lot of money. If you really want to deal with me, wouldn't it be as simple as crushing an ant to death?"
Ji Zi's life has not been easy since her public challenge to the Jiang family.
On the one hand, she has to admit the tremendous pressure brought by online public opinion, and on the other hand, she is always worried that Jiang's family will be unfavorable to her. She couldn't sleep or eat well, and she also entered the stage of morning sickness, suffering physical and psychological torture every day.
She would always have nightmares whenever she closed her eyes. In the dream, Jiang Ze asked her, "Didn't you say you took medicine?" How dare you lie to me! Then she was chased by the man in black. She knew he was from the Jiang family. She ran as fast as she could. When the man in black was about to stab her with the knife, she shouted at the top of her lungs, "This is the flesh and blood of the Jiang family. How dare you hurt the Jiang family?" people?
The man in black sneered, do you think you can marry into the Jiang family? Go to hell!
Just cut it with one knife.
Every time Ji Zi woke up from nightmares, she felt nauseated and terribly uncomfortable.
"What are you afraid of? They don't dare to do anything to you." Maura gave her reassurance in an understated manner, "The Jiang family is a big family and they want to be shameless. Who in the outside world doesn't know about this now? Moreover, the Jiang family's stock price has also changed because of This incident has caused severe fluctuations. At this time, the Jiang family wants nothing more than anyone else to have something happen to you, because once something happens to you, all the blame from the outside world will be directed at the Jiang family. Now is the information society, and sometimes the public opinion is aroused. The truth It doesn’t matter what it is, everyone just wants to believe what they want to believe.”
Ji Zi was still panicked after hearing these words, "What if the Jiang family really doesn't care? Or can they hide it from the truth?"
"For example?" Maura pretended to be confused.
"It's easy for them to want me to disappear without a trace, and it's also easy to forge the trajectory of my life." Ji Zi hit the nail on the head and said what she was most worried about.
It is not difficult to get rid of her and pretend that she is still alive in this world. At least it is possible to hide it for a year or two, let alone a year. Even after a month, netizens no longer pay attention to this matter. thing. Information can be forged, and even videos can be faked, so what power does she have to negotiate terms with the Jiang family?
Maura smiled, "Miss Ji, you are worthy of being a movie queen. You can also think of such a plot. Can't you tell the difference between human and drama?"
Ji Zi was startled.
"Do you think it's more expensive for the Jiang family to allow you to come in or to get rid of you and maintain traces of your activities?"
Ji Zi thought for a while but didn't answer.
"The Jiang family is powerful. The more a family like this, the more cautious it is. Do you think they will completely destroy the Jiang family just to kill you? Then isn't the Jiang family's efforts in this generation in vain?" Maura gave her Analysis, "On the contrary, agreeing to let you in is nothing more than damaging some interests. Those who do not belong to the right family will at most be criticized. But all these losses are temporary. It is too easy to regain the interest relationship with the ability of the Jiang family." , as for face, the Jiang family values the most, the worst thing is that Jiang Ze will file for divorce after you give birth to the child. So if you were the Jiang family, what would you do? "
Ji Zi was thoughtful.
"Miss Ji, wealth has always been sought in danger since ancient times. How can you do it if you want to be prosperous and wealthy but are timid? How can there be such a good thing in this world? To take a step back, you are seeking your own welfare. You are always the only one on the gambling table. When I found you, I asked you if you had the courage. You vowed to do so at that time. Now there is no way out. You can only bite the bullet and move forward. You are the winner, regardless of whether you stay with the Jiang family for a lifetime or a year, the important thing is that the Jiang family recognizes this child."
Ji Zi asked, "Will the Jiang family really compromise?"
Maura smiled, "Maybe Jiang Ze can't think of that much, but his father Jiang Niantai is a man who knows how to weigh the pros and cons. He won't think of the problems I can think of, so don't worry."
She paused, "And I'm behind this matter. How can I still watch you fall into danger? It's our people who are leading the conversation now. Even if there are many people scolding you on the Internet, the mainstream direction is us." You are taking control. This time you caught the Jiang family off guard, so they had no time to start public relations, and by the time they realized it, they had lost the best opportunity."
When Ji Zijing said this, her heart dropped a lot. She said, "If I can really marry into the Jiang family, I will never forget your kindness."
Maura smiled, "What I want is not your reward."
"Then why are you helping me?" Ji Zi was puzzled.
Logically speaking, she couldn't reach the Mora family, so why would Mora come to help her?
"It's very simple." Maura said softly, "I don't want Yu Nian to marry into the Jiang family."
Ji Zi was stunned for a long time, and then subconsciously asked, "Why?"
"You don't need to know the reason." Maura said calmly.
Ji Zi also wisely stopped asking any more questions. She chose not to know about some things that she didn't want to know, and she wisely protected herself.
After a long time, she said, "Actually, Jiang Ze's heart is not with me. He likes Yu Nian."
Maura scoffed.
Ji Zi raised her eyes and looked at her, wondering why she was smiling so much.
"Miss Ji, you are a movie queen. You don't need to be taught how to be kind and affectionate." Maura said sharply, "You can marry into the Jiang family as you wish. It is not difficult for you to tie up a man's heart. Bar."
The corners of Ji Zi's mouth twitched slightly.
"You and Jiang Ze have had private conversations not once or twice. You said he has Yu Nian in his heart? Oh, he only has himself. If he has Yu Nian in his heart, he will not look for you again and again to have fun." Maura's eyes looked back. Disdainful.
Ji Zi's face turned unnatural when she said that.
"In short, I can only help you get into the Jiang family. As for the future, you have to rely on yourself."
-
Jiang Nianyan didn't stay in the old house for too long. He planned to leave when the old lady scolded Jiang Niantai's family.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xin also came out.
Jiang Nianyan glanced at her but said nothing.
"Hey, give me a ride." Jiang Xin said bluntly.
While talking, Lao Liu had already driven over.
Jiang Nianyan said calmly, "If you don't have time, ask me for a driver." After saying that, he opened the door and got in the car.
Unexpectedly, the car door was closed a second ago and opened the next. Jiang Xin held the car door with one hand and stared at him condescendingly, "Go in."
"I told you I didn't—"
Jiang Xin forcibly sat in, with most of her body almost pressed against Jiang Nianyan.
There is no choice, Jiang Nianyan can only go inside.
"The Jiang family's drivers are free. If you don't ask them to come to me, what will cause trouble?" Jiang Nianyan frowned.
Jiang Xin turned her head to look at him and narrowed her eyes slightly, "Jiang Nianyan, are you tight-lipped? How dare you talk to your sister like this?"
Jiang Nianyan stopped talking and looked unhappy.
Old Liu glanced at the rearview mirror and wanted to laugh, but held it back.
Jiang Xin's attention then fell on Lao Liu, "Long time no see Lao Liu."
Lao Liu hurriedly said hello, "Miss, yes, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are getting more and more beautiful."
Jiang Xin was very happy, and looked at Jiang Nianyan again, "They say birds of a feather flock together, but no matter how I look at you, you can't speak as well as Lao Liu. Look at them, and then look at you, why haven't you imitated them even a little bit? ?”
