Wen Qing nodded heavily: "Don't worry, Mr. Huo. I've investigated all the people who spoke ill of Miss Jiang at the banquet today, and they will be taught a lesson they deserve."
The next day.
Jiang Ran had no plans for the day, so she went to the company to help Jiang Huaijing with some things.
Today, Xiaozhu Video has firmly established itself as the industry leader, and its subsidiary, Starlight Media, is also thriving.
Besides having a top-tier celebrity and several popular artists, the company has also signed dozens of promising new artists this year, making it arguably the top agency in China.
Nowadays, almost all the popular TV dramas feature artists from Starlight Media. Moreover, in addition to the entertainment industry, the company has also begun to cultivate idol groups.
Jiang Qinghe is now one of the most popular idols in China. Her dream has always been to stand on the stage, but she also wants to have her own group. Therefore, the company has decided to select a few suitable members to form a girl group with her.
After finishing these tasks, Jiang Ran walked out of the company, but out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of someone who looked somewhat familiar.
Jiang Ran's gaze sharpened as she looked at the figure lurking suspiciously near the company.
It was her!
Not far away, Jiang's mother was pacing furtively at the company entrance. She spat at the company gate with a face full of hatred, muttering curses under her breath.
After several years, Jiang's mother's attire was no longer as glamorous as before, and she no longer wore a large amount of jewelry in an exaggerated manner.
She was now wearing tattered clothes, and her once well-maintained skin had become aged and rough, making her look more than ten years older.
She used to walk with her chin up to look at people, but now she is hunched over and her hair is completely white.
Moreover, the numerous large and small wounds on her exposed skin, with old injuries layered upon new ones, looked rather gruesome.
She had heard about the Xu family. Four years had passed, and now the Xu family could no longer even maintain its superficial prosperity. She heard that Xu Yaowei was drinking heavily every day because of this, and when he was drunk, he would violently abuse Jiang's mother.
In the past, Jiang's mother had a considerable amount of savings given to her by Jiang Minghui, but now it seems that it has all been given to the Xu family.
Nowadays, her clothes are not even as good as those of an average family.
"Pah—!" Jiang's mother raised her calloused and cracked old hand, scratched her white hair, and spat angrily at the door again.
"May the Bodhisattva protect them...May the Bodhisattva protect this entire Shen family so that they all die a violent death! May they suffer a terrible death! May they suffer a terrible death!"
Jiang's mother's eyes were filled with hatred. She was now in this predicament because of the Shen family!
What an ingrate! What a bunch of ingrates!
They're all Minghui's biological children! How could they send their own father to court! What a bunch of ungrateful wretches!
If it weren't for Minghui and the others, would they even be here in this world?
Her poor son... she, an elderly woman, had to outlive her son...
And Xinrou...that was her most beloved granddaughter, who left this world at such a young age.
And all of this was caused by the Shen family!
They killed her son and granddaughter!
Now that her son and granddaughter are gone, Xu Yaowei, seeing that she has lost her backing, has become even more ruthless towards her.
She hadn't had a single good day in the Xu family all these years. Originally, her savings were enough for her retirement, but that bastard Xu Yaowei stole all that money. Not only did he drink heavily every day, but he also openly brought women home with her money.
What's even more infuriating is that Xu Yaowei, that bastard, made her wash the underwear of those women outside.
She was beaten severely for saying just a few extra words, and couldn't walk for several days.
Now she lives worse than a servant in the Xu family. When has she ever suffered like this?
It's all the fault of that Shen family, who killed her son! They left her without any support, which is why she's ended up like this.
These wicked people! They will get their comeuppance!
Jiang's mother glared fiercely at the office building of Xiaozhu Video and then pulled out a talisman from her bosom.
She had gone to great lengths to obtain this from the master!
She carefully looked around, then stuck the talisman on the wall, muttering some incomprehensible incantation.
"May they all die a horrible death! May they all die a horrible death!"
She was muttering to herself with her eyes closed when someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder.
"ah--!"
Jiang's mother was so frightened that she fell to the ground and curled up into a ball.
"Don't hit me, don't hit me..."
Jiang Ran smiled upon seeing this, thinking that she must have some nerve to come here and curse people, but it turned out she was just a frightened bird.
It seems she hasn't had a good time in the Xu family all these years.
Upon seeing Jiang Ran, boundless hatred welled up in Jiang's mother's eyes.
"It's you! It's you, you little bitch!" She suddenly scrambled to her feet, pointing fiercely at Jiang Ran and yelling, "It's you, you little bitch, who killed my son and granddaughter! You're worse than an animal! Those were your own father and your own sister! You beast! You beast!"
Jiang Ran curled her lips in disdain: "Jiang Minghui and Jiang Xinrou's fate was entirely their own fault. They committed so many evil deeds, so they deserved to pay with their lives."
She didn't frame them; they committed those evil deeds themselves. She was merely acting on behalf of God by submitting the evidence to the court.
She always used honorable means to exact revenge, and their fates were entirely their own doing.
"You! You little bitch, how dare you say such things! Minghui is ruined because of you! Aren't you afraid that Minghui will turn into a vengeful ghost and come back to haunt you?"
"Only those with a guilty conscience are afraid of ghosts!" Jiang Ran's eyes flashed with sarcasm: "Even if he becomes a vengeful ghost, what can he do to me? He couldn't do anything to me when he was alive, so how could he possibly harm me after he's dead?"
"Stop being so stubborn! Minghui, now a vengeful ghost, won't let you go! And I won't let you go either! Your whole family is going to be in big trouble! You'll all die a violent death! Just you wait!"
Jiang Ran was too lazy to waste any more words with her, so she immediately called the security guards.
She pointed at Jiang's mother: "This person just spat on the ground and cursed, and all of this was captured on surveillance cameras. You should hand her over to the police and see if it's a fine or something."
Upon hearing about the fine, Jiang's mother angrily shouted, "You little bitch! How can you be so heartless!"
"Why aren't you taking him away yet?" Jiang Ran got annoyed and looked at the security guard.
"Yes, we'll take her away right away."
Jiang's mother was dragged away by two security guards. She struggled fiercely, cursing under her breath.
Not far away, a pair of eyes were silently observing everything.
