Orphan Jiang He, longing for family affection, is reborn into a parallel world. At five years old, to protect his sister, he is kidnapped by human traffickers.
One month after the kidnapping,...
"What's wrong, big sister?"
Jiang Xingwan and Jiang Yuxi were still debating whether to choose a watch or cufflinks when Jiang Muyun answered the phone and his expression changed.
Jiang Muyun looked at the watches and cufflinks in her sisters' hands, and recalling Fang Linping's comment about harassment, her tone inevitably carried a hint of resentment when she spoke again.
"It was Jiang He's agent who called, telling us to stop harassing Jiang He..."
Harassment?
Jiang Xingwan and Jiang Yuxi's faces also showed a hint of anger.
Thinking about how she had just been sincerely picking out a gift for Jiang He, she was instantly furious.
"We've gone to such lengths to please him, and he actually thinks we're harassing him?"
"He's utterly heartless!"
"I've really had enough! I'm going to find him! How dare he twist our good intentions and ruin our feelings like this!"
In a moment of impulsiveness, Jiang Yuxi picked up her bag and headed to Jiang He's studio to find Jiang He.
Jiang Xingwan hesitated for a moment, put down her watch, and followed.
We should ask them to find out.
"Big sister, are you going or not?"
Before leaving, she didn't forget to ask.
Jiang Muyun remained silent for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said,
"I'm going too!"
The group rushed to the new student studio and, ignoring the advice of security guards and staff, forced their way in.
"Jiang He! Jiang He, come out here!"
"How dare you treat our good intentions like this?"
"Come out here and explain yourself!"
Jiang Yuxi took the lead, relying on the fact that the security guards dared not really use force, and stormed into Jiang He's office with a menacing air.
"Jiang He, you have disappointed us greatly. We sincerely want to make up with you, so why are you acting like a hedgehog, ignoring our sincerity and saying that we are harassing you?"
Jiang Xingwan followed her in, looking at Jiang He with a disappointed expression.
Jiang Muyun, her face also cold, said with deep sorrow,
"Jiang He, you really went too far by saying such things."
"No matter what, we are still your sisters. We went to great lengths to please you and helped you find resources and jobs. You don't appreciate it, but why do you have to speak so rudely to us?"
Jiang He was shocked that they still had the nerve to come to his studio and cause trouble, so she questioned him about it.
"You can go out first,"
After dismissing the security guards and assistants who had been chasing them, Jiang He's face hardened, and she said silently,
Why should I accept your kindness?
"Jiang Muyun, Jiang Xingwan, Jiang Yuxi, are you three sisters forgetful or just shameless? Have you forgotten that we broke off all ties long ago and have no relation to each other anymore?"
"We have no relation whatsoever, what are you all doing here acting crazy?"
"I don't care about your flattery. I can buy things myself, and I have plenty of resources. There's no need for you to flatter me."
"Get out of here now, immediately."
"Jiang He! You've gone too far!"
Jiang Yuxi's eyes turned red with anger.
"We've already tried our best to make it up to you, Jiang He, how could you do this?"
Jiang Xingwan also felt extremely wronged.
“We truly know we were wrong. I know you suffered a lot of injustice, but we were also unaware of the situation at the time and were deceived by Jiang Bai.”
"We didn't mean it, why can't you give us a chance?"
Jiang He was somewhat surprised.
Were we tricked by Jiang Bai?
Perhaps sensing Jiang He's confusion, which was understandable, as Jiang He was unaware of Jiang Bai's background.
This gave Jiang Muyun a glimmer of hope, and she quickly explained to Jiang He how she had discovered Jiang Bai's true identity.
"...Jiang He, we were all deceived by Jiang Bai. Only after we found out that he was actually Jiang Hechuan's illegitimate son did we realize how much injustice you had suffered in private."
"We know we were wrong now, Jiang He, can you give us another chance? We are truly a family."
"Let's work together to drive Jiang Bai out of the Jiang family. I promise you, I'll never be biased or ignore you again, okay?"
Jiang He went from being surprised at first to suddenly realizing what was going on.
No wonder they've been trying so hard to reconcile with him and even asked him to come home for the New Year.
It turns out that they discovered Jiang Bai's background and found that he was not as innocent and kind as he appeared on the surface, but had done many bad things behind the scenes.
That's when I remembered him and wanted to get him to help me deal with Jiang Bai.
However, Jiang Bai is actually Jiang Hechuan's illegitimate son?
This surprised Jiang He greatly, yet at the same time, it inexplicably felt natural and no wonder.
No wonder that in the previous life, the person who ultimately inherited the Jiang family was Jiang Bai, an adopted son who had no blood relation to the Jiang family.
Instead of her biological daughters.
He thought Jiang Hechuan truly loved Jiang Bai so much that he disregarded everything else, even blood ties.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Bai was actually Jiang Hechuan's illegitimate son.
He really hid it well.
Jiang He's thoughtful expression led the three sisters to mistakenly believe that she was somewhat moved, and they quickly said,
"Jiang He, let's go home."
“We are the blood-related family, the closest beings in the world. We know you must have suffered a lot of injustices, hardships, and pain.”
“We now know we were wrong, and we will do our best to be a good older sister and make up for all the grievances you have suffered over the years.”
"Jiang He, come home with us. How about we give you a chance to make it up to you?"
After they finished speaking, they all looked at Jiang He expectantly, hoping that Jiang He would be deeply moved and reconcile with them in the next second.
Unexpectedly, Jiang He remained unmoved, showing no sign of being touched.
He coldly uttered six words.
"No, I will never forgive."
The six characters are simple and concise, with not a single extra word.
Regardless of Jiang Bai's true background, the harm they have caused him over the years is real.
What makes them think that a few perfunctory apologies and an admission of wrongdoing are enough to earn them forgiveness?
We are all human beings. Are their apologies really that valuable or precious?
Are the pain and hurt he suffered worthless and easily forgotten?
"Jiang He, how can you be so cold-blooded and heartless?"
Jiang Muyun hadn't expected them to go to such lengths.
Jiang He remained completely unmoved.
"We truly know we were wrong, and we sincerely want to make it up to you, Jiang He, you—"
Jiang He coldly interrupted her.
“I don’t want to hear it. I’ll count to three, and if you don’t get out by then, I’ll call security to forcibly remove you.”
"1-2-"
"You don't need to kick us out, we'll just leave!"
