Smack!
The crisp sound made everyone’s eyes widen!
One side of Jiang Man’s face quickly swelled up. She covered her face in disbelief. “You dare to hit me?!”
Fu Yunze’s face was filled with distress. Father Jiang was about to rush forward, but he was stopped by someone.
“B*stard! You dare to hit your sister? Did the Jiang family raise you for nothing these two years? You ingrate…”
He looked as if Jiang Man was his biological daughter, while Jiang Li was the one he took in by mistake.
Jiang Li slowly moved her wrists with a calm and composed expression.
“Father, since you admit that she is my sister, what’s wrong with an elder sister disciplining her younger sister?”
“You!”
“She stripped elder sister’s clothes in public. Is this what a lady from a prestigious family should do? Something bad happened in the family. However, instead of thinking about how to overcome the difficulties with her family, she spread the news and tarnished the reputation of the entire family. Is she worthy to be a member of our family?”
Jiang Li spoke so casually, but everyone was rendered speechless.
Everyone present was either rich or n.o.ble, and they all knew that every family had some shameful things to hide. Once it happened, they naturally had to do their best to cover it up.
If there was someone in the family who did not know how to be considerate like Jiang Man… They would not dare to imagine it.
Father Jiang and Mother Jiang just praised Jiang Man for being sensible, right? At the moment, they were eating their own words.
Everyone’s gaze became odd.
Jiang Man knew that the situation was bad, so she tugged at the corner of Father Jiang’s s.h.i.+rt and tried to explain, “Dad, I’m just worried about my sister…”
“Dad knows.”
Father Jiang comforted her gently. When he turned to Jiang Li, he put on a cold expression again. “Your sister just did it on accident. Don’t use your sister to divert the attention! After what happened, you’re no longer worthy of Young Master Fu! Break off the engagement!”
Fu Yunze clenched his fists and his eyes became reddish. “Jiang Li, you still want to rely on me at this point? You’re Shameless!”
Jiang Li glanced at him. Her eyes were bone-chilling, and Fu Yunze could not help but freeze.
She could not figure out why she loved this sc.u.mbag so wholeheartedly in her previous life.
Was it because he was handsome?
However, at this moment, Jiang Li realized that Fu Jiuxiao’s face was ten times better looking than Fu Yunze’s.
Fu Yunze saw that Jiang Li did not say anything and instinctively thought that she did not want to break off the engagement. He turned to Old Master Fu and kowtowed heavily to show his determination.
“Grandpa, you asked me to marry this good-for-nothing peasant woman, and I accepted it! However, now that she has tarnished the Fu family’s reputation, I absolutely can’t accept her anymore!”
The only person he wanted to marry was Manman!
Old Master Fu’s lips moved, and he was about to speak —
Jiang Li knew what he wanted to say.
In her previous life, Old Master Fu insisted on not letting Fu Yunze break off the engagement in order to save her life. At that time, she liked Fu Yunze so much that she tacitly agreed with Old Master Fu’s decision.
For many years after that, she silently endured Fu Yunze’s vents on her as she felt guilty toward him.
Even though Fu Yunze married her, his relations.h.i.+p with Jiang Man was still ambiguous. On the other hand, Jiang Li could only pretend not to care until she died…
The past scenes appeared in her mind, and Jiang Li’s gaze became colder and colder.
“Grandpa Fu.”
Jiang Li interrupted the old man, “I’m sorry about this. Even if I was ambushed, it still damaged the Fu family’s reputation.”
When the others heard her words, they all guessed.
“Is Jiang Li asking for forgiveness?”
“Of course she is. She’s apologizing first and showing her weakness. If the old man sympathizes with her, then there’s no need to break off the engagement.”
The speaker’s tone was disdainful. However, Jiang Li’s words soon made everyone’s jaws drop!
“I will break off the engagement. However, I’m not choosing to break off the engagement because I felt guilty. The problem is with Fu Yunze.”
Her words caused many people to be filled with doubts.
“What’s going on? From Jiang Li’s tone, it seems like Young Master Fu isn’t good enough for her!”
“Young Master Fu is the man all the women in Sea City want to marry. What is she thinking?”
Fu Yunze gritted his teeth, his handsome face almost contorted.
“B*tch, you’re crazy! What’s the problem with me?!”
Amid the doubts, only Old Master Fu waved his hand tiredly.
“Little Li, if you have something to say, just say it.”
Jiang Li nodded. What she was going to do next was actually more or less harmful to the Fu family’s reputation, but if she didn’t do it, her life would be ruined.
She directly turned on the projector in the hotel room and projected the photos stored in her phone onto the big screen
In an instant, the room fell silent. After a long while, someone said with a trembling voice.
“Looking at this intimate photo… It seems to be the Young Master Fu and the second miss of the Jiang family…”
