Chapter 19 Torrential Rain

Did she hear something?

Seeing that Jiang Sheng was starting to suspect something, Cai Lin added fuel to the fire, saying, "Oh dear, brother-in-law, you have no idea!"

“Jiang Yao ate well and dressed well throughout the entire cold period. Even when everyone was fighting tooth and nail for firewood, Jiang Yao lived in a warm house and never went out.”

"Da Bao and I even saw her drinking chicken soup inside the house. She shared some with those pretty boys but wouldn't give a single bite to poor Da Bao. How could there be such a heartless girl!" Cai Lin gritted her teeth, recalling the matter of making her return the grain.

Seeing Jiang Sheng's brows furrowed, Cai Ya feigned to comfort him, saying, "Perhaps Jiang Yao has some kind of trouble!"

"Otherwise, we shouldn't have sold the Jiang family's shares!"

When Cai Lin heard that Jiang Yao had sold her shares, she thought to herself, "Wouldn't she be very rich now?" and immediately replied jealously, "That girl is very cunning!"

“When I saw her this morning, I told her that you had nowhere to stay since you came, but she lives in a big two-bedroom house, so why don’t you stay in the empty room? She just walked away as if she didn’t hear me.” After saying that, she looked at Jiang Sheng’s ashen face.

Seeing her father resemble an enraged lion, with uncontrollable rage flashing in his eyes, Jiang Xue whispered, "How about I go and scout it out tomorrow?"

As soon as Jiang Xue finished speaking, Jiang Sheng raised his hand to stop her, saying, "I'll meet her myself later."

Cai Lin's words further convinced Jiang Sheng that Jiang Yao had premeditatedly sold him Jiang's shares...

The heavy rain was still falling when Jiang Yao arrived at Cai Lin's home in Building C, Room 3003. The person who opened the door was her second uncle's daughter, Jiang Kexin.

Seeing that Jiang Yao's hands were empty, she pouted and said, "Jiang Yao, didn't anyone tell you that you can't visit someone's house empty-handed?" Jiang Xue glanced at her and turned to go into the house.

Upon seeing Jiang Yao for the first time, Jiang Sheng was unable to control his anger and slapped her.

Unfortunately, Jiang Yao stopped him with her hand, saying, "My second uncle wants to hit me the moment he sees me. I don't think he wants to catch up with me."
