After all, she could send Zhou Yuxuan over anytime she wanted; there was no need to rush.

Zhou Yuxuan would probably not refuse, after all, it's a good opportunity to learn acupuncture.

If he weren't Mo Han's brother, he wouldn't have chosen this time to teach him acupuncture.

Just as Jian Yixue took out her phone to make a call, it suddenly rang. Jian Yixue looked down.

It was an unnumbered phone number, but Jian Yixue recognized it immediately as someone's call.

Isn't this her supposedly good stepmother?

I'm calling her for the first time ever, could it be something good?

That's strange!

Whether in her past life or this one, her good stepmother has never treated her with any care.

I don't know if she called herself or if Jian Mingpeng asked her to call.

After all, Jian Mingpeng's phone number had been blocked by her, otherwise she wouldn't have been so free these past two days.

However, Jian Yixue didn't care about these things at all.

They didn't care at all who was looking for them.

Jian Yixue sneered and hung up the phone without hesitation.

Less than three seconds after hanging up, before Jian Yixue could even unlock her screen, the phone rang again.

Without a second thought, Jian Yixue hung up again.

After several phone calls, Jian Yixue's patience gradually waned, and she began to leave home.

He made a decision in secret.

She wanted to see what Qiao Yaxiang's purpose was in contacting her.

When the phone rang again, Jian Yixue didn't hang up this time; she answered it directly.

When the call was connected, the other party was clearly stunned and remained silent for a long time.

Instead, it was Jian Mingpeng's slightly angry voice that came from the other end of the phone.

"What are you standing there for! If you didn't answer, keep calling! That brat thinks she's all grown up now, daring to act all high and mighty with me!"

Jian Yixue's gaze grew cold, but she remained silent.

She just wanted to see how that trash Jian Mingpeng could possibly make fun of her.

Qiao Yaxiang, who was in a daze, suddenly realized what was happening after hearing Jian Mingpeng's urging.

"She...she answered it."

Then he handed the phone to Jian Mingpeng.

Then, Jian Yixue heard Jian Mingpeng's furious voice coming from the other end of the phone.

"What exactly do you want to do! Did you start planning to take revenge on me and the Jian family ever since you returned to the capital?"

Jian Mingpeng's words were not a question, but a statement.

Jian Yixue let out a cold laugh, her eyes filled with the frost of winter.

"Haven't you already clearly stated what I want to do?"

What? You can't believe it? Do you want me to repeat it to you?

Jian Mingpeng, who had been forced to return home from the hospital to recuperate, was sitting on his bed making a phone call to Jian Yixue.

Hearing Jian Yixue's infuriating words, the anger that he had finally managed to suppress was about to explode and erupt on the spot.

Seeing this, Qiao Yaxiang was afraid that something might happen to Jian Mingpeng.

If something goes wrong, she will lose both her wife and her army.

Putting aside all those years of youth, how is she going to survive if she ends up with nothing to rely on?

Thinking of this, Qiao Yaxiang pretended to be worried and said, "Ming-ge, take care of your health. It's not worth getting sick from anger."

Qiao Yaxiang's words brought Jian Mingpeng, who had been so angry that he lost his temper, back to the purpose of his call and suppressed most of his anger.

"Come back to the Jian family. I have something to discuss with you."

“What do we have to talk about? Former chairman of the Jian Group,” Jian Yixue said, deliberately touching on Jian Mingpeng’s sore spot.

Upon hearing this, Jian Mingpeng was so angry he was about to go crazy. His hands clenched into fists, and the veins on them bulged.

Thinking about the purpose of the call, Jian Mingpeng silently told himself.

Once he turns his life around, he will return everything he has suffered to Jian Yixue, exactly as it was.

Thinking this way, Jian Mingpeng felt a little better.

"Tell me, what do you want in return for leaving the Jane family?"

In the two days since he returned, Jian Mingpeng has figured things out.

She knew that Jane was doing this entirely to get revenge on him.

He was just unsure how much of what Jane Yixue shouldn't know.

Regardless of whether the money belonged to Jian Yixue or was given to her by Ye Mohan, the fact that Jian Yixue could come up with 5 billion in one go is remarkable.

In short, she wasn't short of money.

Although the Jian Group is considered to be doing well in the eyes of outsiders, only their senior management knows that the industry's prospects have been worrying in recent years and it is no longer what it was a decade or so ago.

If Jian Yixue really wants to make money, the Jian family is not the best choice.

Given her circumstances, if she were to start a new company, with ample funds and the support of the Ye family, it would undoubtedly be far better than the Jian family's business.

Why bother getting involved?

As he thought about it, his suspicion became increasingly clear.

He couldn't find any better reason to convince himself than to hate him and seek revenge.

"Why should I leave? I told you long ago that the Jane family belongs to my mother, and now it's just returning it to its rightful owner."

"If anyone's leaving, it should be you. If it weren't for my mother, Jian Mingpeng, you wouldn't have had these past ten years of good life. You'd probably still be working as a bricklayer somewhere right now."

"Jian Yixue said coldly."

leave?

How could she possibly leave!

If anyone's leaving, it should be someone like Jian Mingpeng. The Jian family doesn't belong to him; he's just a cuckoo occupying someone else's nest.

The facts presented by Jian Yixue made Jian Mingpeng's expression very awkward.

"Do you really want to make a fool of the Jian family in front of others? Don't forget, you are also a member of the Jian family."

The Jian family is your maternal family. If the Jian family falls, and you no longer have your maternal family as your backing, don't think that Ye Mohan will still treat you this well!

"The Jian family also owes a debt of your mother's love and effort. Your actions will truly ruin the Jian family. Aren't you afraid your mother will not rest in peace?"

After thinking for a long time, Jian Mingpeng, seeing that Jian Yixue was unmoved by his tough approach, had no choice but to play the emotional card.

"Shut up, you are not worthy to mention my mother."

"Also, how do you know that the Jane family business will be worse in my hands than it was in yours?"

Let me tell you, I'm definitely going to take Jane's.

Now that it's in my hands, I won't let go. Don't even think about taking it back from me.

As for my love life, I don't need someone like you who hasn't shown up in over a decade to interfere. If you really think you have nothing to do after stepping down, you should worry more about the marriage prospects of your daughter with the third brother.

After saying that, Jian Yixue hung up the phone impatiently and in a very unpleasant mood.

Although she already knew the truth, she couldn't control the hatred in her heart every time it was mentioned.

Countless times, she thought she should just give up and kill Jian Mingpeng to vent her anger.

Even without Jian Mingpeng, the path to finding the truth would simply be a bit more circuitous.
