Jiang Tian, a renowned渣女 (scorned woman/player) in her lifetime with countless boyfriends, was recruited by the Main God after her death to become an invincible host for the Female Lead group.<...
He wants it, but Jiang Tian definitely won't give it to him. Zhang Ziyin wants it, but she can get some money from her five out of ten times.
Zhang Ziyin naturally knew that her husband needed the money to buy a house for his son; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to settle down in the city, let alone get married and have a grandson.
Even if Jiang Tian didn't take the money, her husband would. Anyway, it was all family money, so she would come to see Jiang Tian from time to time.
Jiang Tian usually ignored her, but today her attitude seemed even colder.
Zhang Ziyin knew she had let her daughter down, but what could she do?
She's already part of her husband's family, so she definitely needs to fight for her place.
If her son can't find a wife, it will affect her and her husband's lives.
"Can you give me 10,000 first? Your brother can't find a job and was scammed out of tens of thousands of yuan. Your father can't come up with that much money either, so you're the only one who can fill this hole."
Zhang Ziyin spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
We're all family, what's wrong with borrowing some money?
Jiang Tian laughed: "Go back now, I won't give you a single penny. After all these years of letting you leech off me, you've really started to think you're monsters."
"Jiang Tian! Don't speak so harshly! Have you forgotten who took us in when we were all alone and destitute? One must not forget one's roots!"
Zhang Ziyin is kind to everyone and seems to have no temper, but she only shows a bit of a sharp edge to her daughter, because she can only show the dignity of the superior in front of her daughter.
After all, she is a mother; she gave birth to Jiang Tian.
“I have already paid back several times the amount of money you spent in that house. I can’t control whether you want to be someone else’s accomplice, but don’t come back.”
“If you come again, I’ll post ads all over the neighborhood about how you were abused. I want everyone to know that your husband doesn’t love you at all and beats you to death when he’s drunk. Aren’t you afraid of being ashamed? Don’t you hide at home when you’re beaten? I’m going to make everyone know.”
"Jiang Tian!" Zhang Ziyin snapped, "What are you saying? Why did you do this?!"
Zhang Ziyin was very concerned about her reputation. Every time she was beaten, she would stay at home for several days, afraid that someone would see her.
For so many years, she lived in hiding, and no one around her knew that she had been enduring domestic violence.
Jiang Tian actually wants to help her spread the word? She must be crazy!
"If you leave now, I can still stop. Otherwise, if I really go crazy, the image of you getting beaten up might appear in the short videos you love to watch."
Zhang Ziyin stared at her daughter in disbelief.
She didn't know what had gotten into her today, but her inexplicably unapproachable demeanor made her feel intimidated.
In the end, she didn't say anything and just turned and left.
When Zhang Ziyin turned around and saw Jiang Chengyu, her face turned even more unpleasant.
Fortunately, no one here knew her; she didn't want more people to know that she was enduring domestic violence.
After Zhang Ziyin left, Jiang Chengyu stood there motionless for a long time.
He never expected Jiang Tian to have such a family background.
Although he didn't understand the specifics of the mother and daughter's conversation, he still managed to gather some key information.
According to his analysis, Jiang Tian is likely from a blended family. Her mother tolerates domestic violence but chooses not to leave, instead becoming an accomplice to her stepfather. Jiang Tian must have contributed a significant amount of money to the family, yet this family is insatiable and constantly demands money from her.
Jiang Chengyu's feelings were incredibly complicated.
"Are you alright?"
Jiang Tian's expression was unusually indifferent: "I'm sorry to have made you watch the show. I didn't expect my mother to come at this time."
"...No, I meant how are you right now? If you're feeling annoyed, I can...I can keep you company."
Jiang Chengyu's language skills suddenly deteriorated.
He didn't know what he was really thinking, but seeing Jiang Tian standing there all alone, he felt a strange mix of emotions.
He'll be alone if he goes back, so he might as well stay here and keep her company.
Since she likes him, his company should have some effect, right?
"No need to accompany me. But I want to ask you something. When you hired me as your special assistant, did someone put in a good word for me? I've wanted to ask you this question for a long time, so I'll just ask it today."
Jiang Chengyu frowned: "Who told you that? I definitely select special assistants through formal channels, going through complicated procedures and strict screening. How could I hire you just because someone says a good word for you? I value your work ability and your resume. What does it have to do with anyone else?"
After he finished speaking, Jiang Tian suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly: "I guessed it long ago."
Did you guess what? Seeing her injured appearance, Jiang Chengyu felt as if someone had stabbed him in the heart.
"President, would you like to go for a drink? I'm really looking for someone to have a drink with right now. Oh, I forgot, you can't hold your liquor. Last time you only had a little, and you got completely drunk and almost lost your erection."
Jiang Chengyu's face turned completely dark.
He opened the car door directly, looked at Jiang Tian, and gave the order: "Get in the car."
Jiang Tian was only allowed to get out of the car when they arrived at his villa.
On the way, Jiang Tian suggested going to a nearby bar, but Jiang Chengyu rejected it without hesitation.
Those places are a mixed bag, and you never know if there might be bad people there. He was scammed at a karaoke bar not long ago.
Better safe than sorry. Since you want to drink, then go to his house.
He has a lot of good wine at home, and she can drink as much as she wants without him harming her.
After listening to him, Jiang Tian could only follow his advice: "Alright, then I'll go and try your good wine."
