Yin Cheng was covered in sweat, looked flustered, and had slightly red eyes.

Upon seeing Jiang Can run over, he could no longer hold back his tears and rushed forward to grab her.

"Sister, something's happened at home!"

"What's wrong?"

"Your sister..." he gasped, "Jiang Yao, she brought a lot of people to our house and said she was going to kick us out!"

Jiang Can felt a buzzing in her ears, and her mind went blank.

"She brought a lot of workers and said she wanted to take that house back, rearrange it, and make it her own! Sister, wasn't that the house your father gave to Mom? What right does she have to take it back!"

Jiang Can's heart pounded wildly, and she panicked for a moment, not understanding why Jiang Yao would do such a thing.

"Let's go back and check first!" she reassured Yin Cheng. "We've lived in that house for so many years, it's impossible to just take it back like that. There might be some misunderstanding!"

"What misunderstanding could there be? It must be Jiang Yao who's up to no good!" Yin Cheng said indignantly. "Today she brought so many people to our house and kicked me out... Humph, they outnumbered me, I couldn't beat them, but my brother-in-law could!"

"What did you say?" Jiang Can suddenly stopped in her tracks, her face turning pale.

"Your brother-in-law already knows about this?"

“Yes!” Yin Cheng nodded. “Such a big matter should naturally be decided by my brother-in-law!”

"you!"

Jiang Can glared at him, both anxious and angry.

Yin Cheng then realized what was happening.

If Gu Mang meets Jiang Yao, then everything he wants to hide will be exposed!

"Sister, I..." Yin Cheng knew she was in the wrong, "I didn't mean to, I was just anxious and scared, that's why I called my brother-in-law!"

Jiang Can frowned. "What did you say to him?"

"I didn't say much, just that someone came to my house to cause trouble, and then I sent him the address!"

Jiang Can paused for a moment, then took out her phone and sent a message to Gu Mang. She didn't mention the house at all, but only said that she suddenly wanted to eat chestnut cake from a bakery on West Street and wanted him to buy it and deliver it to her office building.

During this time, she and Gu Mang were inseparable, and he listened to everything she said.

She guessed that Gu Mang would definitely prioritize her affairs.

There's a long queue for chestnut cake at that shop.

This bought her time; she could go home first, deal with the matter with Jiang Yao, and then deal with Gu Mang.

...

"Hey, can you hurry up a bit? It's taking you so long to move just a few pieces of broken furniture!"

Jiang Yao stood in the corridor of the residential building, looking impatient and arrogant.

The neighbors were all talking about this pretty girl.

She was pretty, but she also resembled a venomous snake, her eyes and brows brimming with calculation. They guessed that this might be the Jiang family's daughter, Jiang Can's half-sister, but the two sisters' character and conduct were worlds apart.

"What are you looking at!" Jiang Yao glared at them. "A bunch of poor bastards, they only deserve to live in this shabby pigeon coop!"

"Heh, Miss, if you think this is a pigeon coop, why take the house back? It's at least a little place that shelters people from the wind and rain. Your Jiang family is so wealthy, do you really need this small house?"

"Who do you think you are? What business is it of yours! Get out of my way!"

Jiang Yao was arrogant and domineering, and the well-meaning neighbors were helpless. They could only clench their fists and swallow their anger.

"Hurry up!" Jiang Yao vented her anger on the movers. "These junk aren't that precious! If they break, they break! And what's in that broken box? Just throw it away!"

At this moment, Jiang Can and Yin Cheng rushed over from downstairs.

Although Jiang Can didn't know what was in the box, she had seen how much her mother cherished and valued it. Even when she was in the hospital and delirious, her mother would still remind her to take good care of the box when she was lucid.

Jiang Can rushed forward, desperately pushing aside the workers and using his body to protect the box.

"Don't throw it!"

Jiang Yao paused for a moment, then a sinister and mocking expression immediately appeared on her face.

"Why can't I throw it away? This place is vacated now, it's mine from now on! I can't have other people's filth on my turf!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Yin Cheng stepped forward and pointed at Jiang Yao. "This is our home! What you're doing is trespassing! I'm calling the police to arrest you!"

Jiang Can looked at the mess on the floor. There wasn't much furniture in the house to begin with, and now it was all in a mess.

My mother's clothes were also rummaged through and trampled underfoot by those people, covered in mud.

Jiang Can felt a lump in her throat, and anger and grievance welled up in her heart.

She slowly stood up, stared intently at Jiang Yao, and asked her, word by word, "What right do you have to do this? This is my home!"

"Your home?" Jiang Yao laughed, proudly telling her, "Not anymore! I need a studio. The location can't be too close to the city center, otherwise it will be too noisy, but it can't be too remote either, otherwise life will be inconvenient. Heh, after looking around, the location and size of this house are just right, so Dad has agreed to give it to me!"

Jiang Can clenched her fists tightly, trying her best to keep herself from trembling.

Ha, what a joke!

If Jiang Yao wanted a studio, Jiang Mingyuan could rent an entire floor of office space for her in no time. Why would she need to make such a big fuss in this mid-range neighborhood?

Jiang Yao's purpose in doing this was nothing more than to drive her and her mother to a dead end!

"Sister, I'm going to have someone come and renovate the house next. Everything in this house will be torn down and rebuilt!" Jiang Yao looked at her coldly. "Take out anything you're reluctant to part with! Heh, consider it a small token of my affection for you, so as not to let down our sisterhood!"
