Chapter 14: Offending the Superior

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Shame.” Yi Tian glared at Xu Zhi angrily. “If you have so much shame, why didn’t you send your daughter to the marriage alliance agency?”

“To think that we’re the ones who suffered. We’re the ones who tasted the bitter fruit. In the end, you’re talking to us about face? Xu Zhi, I really can’t avoid you!”

Yi Tian protected Jiang Yi. That look was better than any mother protecting her daughter.

When Jiang Yi came out, she saw Yi Tian glaring at Xu Zhi.

“Does Jiang Yi have any reason to offend her superior?”

“Offend her superior? He hit my daughter! Do you believe that I will chop off his dog paws?” Although Yi Tian had a good temper in the past, she was not so easily manipulated. In the past, she hoped that everything would be peaceful. She had to endure one step and take a step back. Now… tolerating would only make these people hurt her even more.

Jiang Yi stopped in her tracks and looked at Yi Tian with pity.

She didn’t intend to do anything.

She just did not want to be bullied, but she did not want Yi Tian to become the target of everyone.

“Jiang Yi, what are you hiding for?” Jiang Si saw Jiang Yi at a glance and directly walked past Yi Tian to start shouting.

“Why should I hide?”

She walked over from behind Yi Tian. Her steps were steady but she had her own aura. She did not have a stern face and did not say anything too ostentatious.

However, it was this kind of interaction that made Jiang Si feel afraid.

Jiang Yi’s aura was completely different from before. Today, she was dressed simply. Her originally thick bangs had turned into a high ponytail, and her simple polo dress outlined her slender figure.

The white sneakers made her feel like she was walking on flat ground.

This wasn’t Jiang Yi. This was the first thought that popped into Jiang Si’s mind.

However, upon closer inspection, it was Jiang Yi.

Her appearance exactly the same.

There was no difference at all.

How could a person’s aura change overnight?

She didn’t believe it!

Jiang Yi stared at Jiang Si, her straight back giving off a lonely and independent feeling.

It was as if she was born with the aura of a king.

“You hurt Grandfather.” Jiang Si pretended to be calm.

“Heh…” Jiang Yi sneered. “Then call the police! Let’s see how the law decides.”

“Jiang Yi, what do you mean?”

“Second Aunt, you don’t understand? Do you want to search for it on Baidu?” Jiang Yi reached out and pushed Yi Tian behind her, protecting her.

When Jiang Chuan saw this, surprise flashed across his eyes.

This was… the first time he had seen such a thing.

He was surprised, but he felt that it was normal.

“Don’t talk nonsense with me. If you have the ability, go to the police.” Before she was reborn, the engagement was already irreversible. But now, everything was under her control.

She was not the weak and incompetent Jiang Yi who only knew how to endure.

She was Jiang Fu, the Jiang Fu who stood on the international stage with her own efforts.

The Jiang family’s relationship was complicated. The old master had two sons and a daughter. All of them were extremely selfish. Only the eldest son, Jiang Ze, was slightly better. However, he was only slightly better. He did not escape the Jiang family’s clutches and would still become a sacrifice.

When they were young, Yi Tian did not want Jiang Yi and Jiang Chuan to become the victims of the struggle between the wealthy families, so she went against everyone’s wishes and established her own family. However, so many years had passed. On the surface, it looked like they had split up, but in fact… there was no need to say it.

Jiang Ze and the old master could not change the fact that they were biological father and son.

Was he throwing her out for the sake of benefits?

It was one thing to sacrifice someone for the sake of the family, but to let everyone step on them?

Even though Jiang Ze had become a big shot in the diplomatic world, he could not escape the shackles of his family.

“You think we don’t dare? What reputation do you have if you call the police?”

Jiang Yi smiled. “I’ve already become a sacrificial lamb. What reputation do I still need?”

“On the other hand, you guys have reputations to maintain.” She looked around and her gaze finally landed on Xu Zhi.

If the financial resources of the first branch were in Jiang Chuan’s hands, then the financial resources of the second branch were in Xu Zhi’s hands.

Since power and money were equally divided, neither of them won.

Therefore, no matter what Xu Zhi did, Second Uncle Jiang Zhi would mostly turn a blind eye to it.

Including the conflict between the sisters-in-law.

Xu Zhi’s confidence came from the large amount of financial support from her family.

That was why she could do whatever she wanted in the Jiang family.

“Yi Tian, this is your good daughter.” Xu Zhi looked at Yi Tian mockingly with a contemptuous smile on his face.

That look that seemed to want to pierce through Yi Tian made one feel disgusted.

A week ago, Jiang Yi was high-spirited and was a guest of Fu Xiting, the young master of the Capital Mall.

A week later, Jiang Yi became a female university student that everyone could step on.

She was filled with grievances, but she had nowhere to vent.

Facing such a situation, she really had a hard time.

Jiang Yi’s hand that was hanging by her side moved, and her fingertips curled up slightly.

The feeling of wanting to go up and tear her apart immediately was especially strong.

Just as she was about to step forward, a warm palm grabbed her palm. Jiang Chuan stepped forward. “Second Aunt, don’t be too ugly. Second Uncle hasn’t even taken a high position yet!”

Jiang Shuang!

Jiang Yi seemed to have discovered something new.

The current capital’s investment department head, Jiang Qi, may be rich, but his methods were not clean.

All these years, even if he had money, he had to hide it.

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Jiang Yi’s mind.

The warmth of Jiang Chuan’s palm reached Jiang Yi’s heart. She looked down at her clenched fist and suddenly thought of a certain someone.

That person also held his palm tightly like today, advancing and retreating with her.

“Jiang Chuan, you haven’t taken Fu Xiting’s position yet!” Xu Zhi threatened him.

Jiang Chuan smiled indifferently. “Regardless of whether I can sit on this position or not, I’m still more accomplished than Second Uncle. But Second Uncle…” He shook his head. He didn’t say a word, but it was enough to make one’s imagination run wild.

“Second Aunt, listen carefully. While my parents still can’t bear to make things too ugly for you, you’d better stop while you’re ahead. If it really doesn’t work out, we’ll fight to the death. The Jiang family is entrusting the family business to my sister now. We have the ability to destroy the entire Jiang family.”

“Aren’t you afraid that the old master will hear you?”

“The old Master can hear me say this. I’ll say it as usual.” Jiang Chuan was very stubborn.

For once, Yi Tian did not stop Jiang Chuan.

Xu Zhi was so angry that his face turned green and white.

“The old master is awake.”

Xu Zhi glared at Jiang Chuan and brought Jiang Si in.

As for Yi Tian?

She glanced at Jiang Ze, who was standing not far away and looking at her silently.

“You guys go back first.” Jiang Ze knew that Yi Tian was angry. No matter what he said now, it was useless.

Yi Tian seemed to have been waiting for him to say that.

As soon as Jiang Ze finished speaking, she left the hospital with Jiang Yi.

“Mom and Dad have their own difficulties,” Jiang Chuan advised Yi Tian.

Yi Tian laughed disdainfully. “Was he the only one in the world who had difficulties?”
