Jiang's mother was being held by two security guards. She used her hands and feet to bite the hand of one of the guards holding her.
The security guard, in pain, abruptly released his grip, and Jiang's mother fell to the ground. But she dared not linger; as if injected with hormones, she sprang to her feet and fled with lightning speed.
She dared not linger there any longer; if she were to be fined, it would be at least a hundred yuan.
One hundred yuan used to be nothing to her, but now it's a huge sum of money.
Ever since Xu Yaowei took all her money, she has been going hungry and cold every day.
In the Xu family, she not only had to do housework with the servants, but also had to serve the women Xu Yaowei brought back from outside. What's even more infuriating is that Xu Yaowei didn't give her a single penny.
She could only eat leftovers at home every day. To improve her life, she could only collect some recyclables to sell, which was the only way she could earn a little money.
Sometimes she really wanted to burn herself to death with that bastard Xu Yaowei, but she was also terrified of dying.
She was truly unwilling to die like this. Her life could have been so different. She had ended up in this predicament because of someone else's actions.
That family surnamed Shen, they will definitely suffer a terrible death!
After Minghui was sentenced to death, he still had a lot of property under his name, which should have been inherited by him. However, the court found out that Minghui had an outstanding debt before his death and forcibly transferred the money to the Shen family.
She doesn't believe it!
In her opinion, the Shen family must have bribed the judge and pocketed the money.
These heartless people! They've caused an old woman, who's practically on her deathbed, to live such a miserable life. They're truly venomous!
And those little bastards, she is their own grandmother, how can they bear to watch her be bullied and live worse than a dog, without even trying to stand up for her? They are a bunch of cold-blooded ingrates!
They will definitely get their comeuppance!
Just then, someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder from behind.
Jiang's mother sprang to her feet and retreated several meters away like a frightened bird.
However, when she saw the man's face clearly, she was so frightened that she turned pale and looked as if she had lost her soul.
The woman before him had icy eyes, but a terrifying and disgusting scar on her face.
"Ugh, you're so ugly... No! You're a ghost! Only ghosts are this ugly... Help! Help me!"
Jiang's mother was so frightened that she turned pale and ran away.
The woman standing still had an even colder gaze, a sharp chill that could kill like a knife.
The Huo family of Country M.
"Uncle Huo, you promised to let me become the Huo family's daughter-in-law! You can't go back on your word..." Wang Jingxian said ingratiatingly, picking up a teacup and handing it to the middle-aged man in front of her.
The man before them was Huo Tianhao, the current head of the Huo family.
The man lowered his eyelids and revealed a meaningful smile: "Of course I haven't forgotten."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jingxian was secretly delighted.
"So, you're saying you'll let Brother Siyan marry me?"
She rushed back to the United States last night, and her guess was right.
Now only Uncle Huo can stop Si Yan from getting engaged to that annoying Jiang Ran. She was raised by Uncle Huo, who had long promised to make her a daughter-in-law of the Huo family.
Hmph! So what if that vixen Jiang Ran used lewd tricks to seduce Brother Si Yan?
Now that Uncle Huo is the head of the Huo family and also Si Yan's father, Si Yan will definitely listen to what he says.
The position of the young mistress of the Huo family is definitely hers!
It can only be hers!
Huo Tianhao's smile remained faint: "I can only keep my promise and make you the daughter-in-law of the Huo family."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jingxian's face lit up with joy.
"I knew Uncle Huo loved me the most. Brother Si Yan will definitely listen to what you say. Brother Si Yan is getting engaged to that woman on the seventeenth of next month. Uncle Huo, who do you think you should send to stop Brother Si Yan?"
Huo Tianhao raised his eyes, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, and said in a calm tone, "I only said that I would make you a daughter-in-law of the Huo family. I have three sons. I never said that you would have to marry Si Yan."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jingxian was struck dumb, standing there stunned for a long time.
"Wh...what?"
Wang Jingxian was stunned. What did Uncle Huo mean by this?
Isn't he going to help me anymore? Isn't he going to stop Si Yan from getting engaged to that woman?
"I made an agreement with Si Yan that I wouldn't interfere in his affairs." Huo Tianhao slowly put down his teacup.
"How can that be! Uncle Huo, are you just going to stand by and watch Brother Siyan marry any woman?! That woman is of low character! And with her family background, how could she possibly be worthy of Brother Siyan?"
"Whether he's good enough for her or not, he knows in his heart. If you insist on making me keep my promise, Qingyan and Junyan aren't married yet. You can choose for yourself and see which one you like."
Wang Jingxian's eyes reddened with anger at those words, and she felt as if something was stuck in her throat, making her extremely uncomfortable.
"I don't like either of them! I only like Brother Si Yan!"
They are just two illegitimate children. Although Uncle Huo has publicly acknowledged their identities, illegitimate children are still illegitimate children!
How can those two be compared to Brother Si Yan?
Besides, neither of them can compare to Si Yan in terms of looks or ability. If they were capable, Si Yan wouldn't have been able to take over the company.
Furthermore, one of them had his leg crippled when he competed with Si Yan's brother for the succession. How could a useless person be worthy of him?
Only Si Yan in this world is worthy of her! They are a match made in heaven! Jiang Ran stole the man who belonged to her!
Huo Tianhao didn't look up, but instead filled his teacup with tea.
"I'm afraid I can't help you with that."
"Uncle Huo... please help me, I'm someone you watched grow up."
"If you want something, go for it yourself. How can you go further if you have to rely on others for everything? If you have the ability, make Si Yan give up that woman and choose you."
Wang Jingxian's expression became even more unpleasant.
Does Uncle Huo mean he's not going to help me?
Of course she'll fight for it!
From childhood to adulthood, she has always been the center of attention, and she has never failed to get whatever she wanted.
Her childhood dream was to marry Brother Si Yan, not because he was the heir of the Huo family. Even if he were to become a beggar one day, she would always stay by his side.
She was so devoted to him, how could he abandon her and turn around to get engaged to another woman!
I don't know what underhanded tricks this woman used, but she will definitely stop their engagement.
