This time, Zheng Wen really could not take it anymore. She thought that she could accept this matter. After all, it was not new for such a thing to happen in the wealthy circle. However, at this moment, she finally understood that she was just an ordinary person.
She lifted her skirt and was about to rush up when Si Cheng quickly pulled her back. “Mom, you can’t flare up now. After we’re done, I’ll help you do whatever you want.”
“Didn’t you see?” Zheng Wen pointed at Si Ming. “Your father has already brought them to the banquet. There’s no place for us in the Si family anymore.”
“Of course 1 saw it, but it’s useless to rush up now except to be treated as a joke. Only if we complete our goal will they lower their heads to us,” Si Cheng repeated.
After all, Zheng Wen was a daughter nurtured by her family. She understood the importance of this matter. In the end, she said, “Let go of me. 1’11 pretend not to see them.”
Si Cheng only let go after confirming that she would not rush forward. He quickly brought his mother elsewhere, afraid that she would go crazy on the spot.
Li Mei looked down on Zheng Wen, but she also looked down on Qin Zhen. After all, Zheng Wen was a legitimate wife, and Qin Zhen could only be said to be a mistress.
However, this matter was not her fault alone. The lecherous man was the main culprit. In addition, she was going to cause internal strife in the Si family this time. She said to Jiang Yan, “Go and receive him. There’s no need to be too friendly.”
Jiang Yan agreed with a smile. He had always been very good at controlling this aspect.
Qin Zhen had been in a nervous state. She was afraid that someone would look down on her because of her ident.i.ty, so she could only stay by Si Ming’s side. This dependence made Si Ming very satisfied.
He had gotten together with Qin Zhen back then because he could not stand Zheng Wen’s dominance. Anyway, the Si family already had an heir. It was not a big deal for him to have a lover outside.
However, after being with Qin Zhen for so many years, he already had deep feelings for her. He knew that if he died, she would definitely be punished. Hence, he wanted to leave her a guarantee by ensuring her children could enter the corporation.
Later on, Si Qin and Si Lin displayed astonishing talent, and Si Cheng always made mistakes. Moreover, he was biased towards Zheng Wen.
Si Ming made a decision. He wanted Si Qin to become the heir of the corporation. Only then could he retire at a stable old age and go sightseeing with his beloved Qin Zhen.
There was indeed no one in the banquet hall who came up to greet them. Even if there was, it was only the boss who was working with the Si family. He pretended not to see Qin Zhen, who was beside Si Ming.
Just as Qin Zhen felt that she shouldn’t have come, Jiang Yan walked over with a gentle smile. “Chairman Si, it’s an honor to have you here. This must be your partner, Mrs. Qin.”
This sentence gave Si Ming a huge step back. He could finally introduce Qin Zhen openly to others. Moreover, the other party had used the word ‘partner’. It really made him feel comfortable.
Not only Qin Zhen, but even Si Qin and Si Lin, who were standing at the back, smiled. Their tense expressions when they first entered the house changed. With the Jiang family’s words, their mother would be less discussed.
However, the two of them could not understand why Jiang Yan would say that. Based on the Jiang family’s status, they could completely ignore them.
Jiang Yan didn’t explain and brought them to the resting area to sit down. Then, he turned around to receive the other guests. There didn’t seem to be anything special about them, as if they were just an ordinary family who had come to attend the banquet.
However, this action almost made Zheng Wen faint from anger. It was only with Si Cheng’s help that she did not fall. Jiang Yan must have done this because of the Jiang family. As the eldest son of the Jiang family, he would not do things according to his preferences.
The dignified Jiang family of Xiyun actually smiled at a mistress and her illegitimate children. Were they really not afraid of losing face?
“They’re humiliating you and us,” Zheng Wen said with tears in her eyes.
If her family was doing well, these people would definitely think highly of her. The things that happened today would not have happened.
Zheng Wen felt that her tears were filled with blood. When she was at home, she was a pampered young lady. When she got married, she was the respected mistress of a large family. She had never suffered such humiliation.
Of course, Si Cheng knew his mother’s hardship, but he had no other choice but to endure it. He had to remarry Jiang An. Otherwise, the Paravi family would not let him off.
Bai Ting, who was standing in the crowd, quietly retreated. She had long been standing in the crowd, so Si Cheng did not notice her at all.
Bai Ting saw the changes in the Jiang family and thought about what she should do next..
