Chapter 53: Killing and Destroying the Heart
Jiang Wentao could tell that she was speaking in a deliberately sarcastic tone.
Jiang Yining didn't look at Jiang Wentao's dark face, but looked around.
Seeing the bank, she said expressionlessly, "I'll check the balance first. If there's no problem, we'll go through the transfer procedures."
Jiang Wentao was angry, but there was nothing he could do.
I originally wanted to give the money to my daughter, but after what happened last time, I knew that Jiang Yining would no longer take care of family affairs.
He was a little reluctant to give this money.
He was thinking of testing her attitude, but he didn't expect that his always well-behaved and sensible daughter would become so heartless, without considering the difficulties of being a father at all.
Jiang Yining confirmed that the money in the bank card had not been touched.
Before going in to handle the formalities, Jiang Wentao stopped Jiang Yining and said, "Ningning, Dad wants to discuss something with you. Why don't we just transfer the ownership through a sale? The transfer tax for a gift is quite high..."
Jiang Yining interrupted him firmly, "Of course not."
Jiang Wentao was silent for a while, then asked, "What about the taxes and fees?"
Jiang Yining said calmly, "Of course you pay for it. I still owe my uncle two hundred thousand yuan for medical expenses. Where would I get the money from?"
Jiang Wentao didn't believe her words, so he returned the 399,000 yuan betrothal gift to her.
"Ningning, your brother is still young, and he will need money a lot in the future..."
Jiang Yining's eyes were filled with a sarcastic smile, "Why give birth if you don't have money?"
"Also, don't use Jiang Yiyang to blackmail me. He has nothing to do with me. I don't care about him at all. Stop calling me 'your brother' all the time. Has he ever called me sister?"
She pursed her lips and her voice became cold. "Since you don't even want to pay these tens of thousands of deed taxes, then don't transfer the ownership."
Jiang Wentao endured it again and again, but was almost humiliated by his daughter's words. "After all, I raised you to this age and worked hard to support your education. I never thought about asking you to repay me as a father."
"Look at yourself again, is there any daughter like you?"
Jiang Yining's eyes were as calm as water. She looked at Jiang Wentao quietly, "Ever since you remarried Zhao Hong, I've heard these words from you many times."
"If you just want to come here and argue with me today, then go back first. I got the money anyway, I don't care."
Jiang Wentao was so angry that he was shaking, "You!"
He snorted coldly, "I raised you as a daughter in vain."
Jiang Yining replied nonchalantly, "Then just think of it as raising an ungrateful person, so that you don't have too many expectations of me, and in the end, nothing comes of it."
Jiang Wentao was so angry that his heart ached. He had nothing to say and had to pay the deed tax honestly.
After completing all the formalities, Jiang Wentao and Jiang Yining came out. He had a gloomy face before, but now his expression had completely changed.
Jiang Wentao looked at Jiang Yining and said with a pleasant face, "Ningning, no matter what, we are father and daughter. Dad will not mention the previous things. From now on, our family will get along well."
Jiang Yining didn't respond.
She stood on the side of the road, took out her cell phone and hailed a taxi. The students would be back to school tomorrow for a week-long military training. The day after tomorrow afternoon, she would have a parent-teacher meeting, so she had to prepare in advance.
Jiang Wentao was happy that the house was back in his name, and he was not annoyed by Jiang Yining's indifference.
Family is always family. Even if they quarrel, they will eventually reconcile because of their years of affection.
Jiang Wentao said, "Ningning, Dad's birthday is coming soon, do you remember?"
Jiang Yining turned around and looked at him. The warm sunlight fell on her, but she still looked cold and indifferent.
She pursed her lips and finally said, "What do you want to say?"
Jiang Wentao was stunned for a moment before speaking. "You and He Chi came home for dinner that night. It was my birthday, so the neighbors wouldn't laugh at you."
Jiang Yining refused decisively, "I'm busy. Even if I were free, I wouldn't go back. Have you forgotten the contents of the contract? Do you want me to read it to you?"
Jiang Wentao remained silent.
It just so happened that she had booked a car on the platform and it had arrived, so Jiang Yining was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"My car has arrived. Let's not contact each other anymore. Our relationship as father and daughter is over."
Without waiting for Jiang Wentao to react, Jiang Yining opened the car door and got in.
Through the car window, she saw Jiang Wentao still standing on the street without moving.
Maybe it was because of the hard work, he looked much more haggard than before, but he deserved it.
Before my mother passed away, my father loved her very much and wanted to give her the best.
So much so that after he remarried, the huge sense of gap made her fall into a state of self-doubt and helplessness for a long time.
Blame her for being cold-hearted or ruthless, now she just wants to live her own life well.
She blamed her father for being selfish and Zhao Hong for being selfish. Now, Jiang Yining admitted that she was also a selfish person.
No one can destroy her little home again.
Jiang Yining turned her head away and didn't look again. She closed her eyes and calmed herself down.
After returning home, Jiang Yining bent down and picked up He Xiaohui. After finishing his work in the study, he sat down on the lazy sofa in the living room. Facing the floor-to-ceiling window, the man and the cat sat for a long time.
In the evening, the sunset illuminated the sky, and Jiang Yining was greeted by a sea of oranges. She nestled comfortably on the lazy sofa, stroking the cat with one hand, until the night deepened.
He Chi said he had a dinner party tonight and would not be back for dinner. Jiang Yining was too lazy to ask his aunt to come and cook, so he just ordered some takeout.
He Chi opened another bottle of red wine last night, but didn't finish it. It seemed like there was still half a bottle left.
After the takeaway arrived, Jiang Yining went to get the bottle of red wine and poured himself a small glass.
After receiving the message, Zhang Qiao was so angry that she almost vomited blood: [You are such a murderous woman! How can anyone be like you? Romanee-Conti with spicy hot pot? ? ?]
Although Jiang Yining didn't know much about red wine, she had heard of this name in TV dramas. She looked up the price and breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheaper than the last bottle.
She texted Zhang Qiao back: [He Chi won't be home until around 11 or 12, do you want to come?]
After sending it, Jiang Yining added, "There's still more than half a bottle of red wine left. I warmly invite you to join me for a drink."
Zhang Qiao laughed out loud after seeing the message. "I'll pack up and be there in half an hour."
When Zhang Qiao arrived, she saw that Jiang Yining's face was already slightly flushed. "You have a terrible alcohol tolerance."
"I'm not drunk." She raised her hand and gently patted her face, muttering, "I just don't know why my face turns red when I drink, even though I haven't drunk much."
Zhang Qiao said, "Then drink less."
Jiang Yining had already prepared a cup for her. The two of them snuggled on the sofa, watching TV and slowly drinking red wine.
Zhang Qiao had to take a taxi back later, and although she had a good alcohol tolerance, Jiang Yining didn't dare let her drink too much.
At around half past ten, Zhang Qiao got up and went back. Jiang Yining asked her to take the remaining half bottle back with her.
Less than ten minutes after Zhang Qiao left, He Chi returned home.
Seeing him come back, Jiang Yining stood up and walked towards He Chi, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be back until half past eleven?"
Her cheeks were flushed, and her moist almond-shaped eyes were a little blurry, obviously she was in a state of being slightly drunk.
As soon as he got in front of He Chi, Jiang Yining rushed forward.
He Chi quickly reached out and brought the person into his arms, "Why did you drink so much?"
