With Fu Linxiao's start, Jiang Luoning no longer hesitated;
He immediately pulled over a chair and sat down with grace, looking at the terrified woman lying on the ground like a god examining a sinner. He then came up with an idea and decided to put all his strength into delivering a fatal blow to Ling Qingya.
Anyway, the person is in their hands now, so there is no need to worry about the woman saying nonsense to others. Even if one day she is out of their control, the little girl can use hypnosis to make her forget everything.
After thinking for a moment, the little girl's lips curved up, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she said in a leisurely and meaningful tone, "Since you are curious about the Hermit Family, then I will tell you another secret that Dong Jiaxue has been hiding from you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of Ling Qingya's already tangled expression, which was even more indescribably tense. Before she could react too much, the little girl's words came one after another.
"The Chen Xu you're calling your adopted son is actually a descendant of the Helian family, one of the first to leave the imperial capital. You're a down-and-out daughter of a wealthy family who was expelled from the imperial capital, yet you dare to shout in front of him? You're truly foolish!"
Although the voice was very relaxed, this news was even more difficult for Ling Qingya to accept.
Ling Qingya, who had thought that Chen Xu, whose status was even inferior to hers, had such a hidden identity, raised her eyes and roared hoarsely at Jiang Luoning again, with disbelief written all over her face.
"How is that possible! What Helian family? He's just an orphan that no one wants!"
Ah Xing, who had been silent all the time, seemed still dissatisfied with the woman's current state of misery. Seeing that Jiang Luoning did not respond and just stared at Ling Qingya without blinking, he couldn't wait to join in the game of ridiculing the woman.
"Oh? Aren't you and Dong Jiaxue the ones no one wants?"
"One was thrown into an orphanage since birth, and the other was disfigured and expelled from the imperial capital by his own father. You two really are birds of a feather!"
The boy's sudden words, and the fact he said, were what the woman had been trying hard to forget recently, which made her even more emotionally devastated. Her face instantly became hideous, her teeth chattered uncontrollably with anger, and her voice became uncontrollably louder, as if she was trying to cover up the actual situation with her voice.
"Shut up! You shut up!"
"If it weren't for Jiang Luoning, how could I have ended up like this?"
"Aren't you the eldest daughter of the Jiang family? If you leave the Jiang family, you will be nothing!"
Ling Qingya couldn't stop cursing and roaring, as if Jiang Luoning was the culprit of everything. She put all the faults and complaints on the little girl.
Perhaps she understood that her plan would never come to fruition, so she no longer worried about the disparity in status, nor did she feel any fear towards the public. However, the words she spoke were without any bottom line, refreshing her worldview.
Glancing at the woman's unreasonable behavior, Jiang Luoning didn't care about her complaints at all. He still sat there calmly watching her madness. Until Ling Qingya's voice weakened and she had no strength left, she finally laughed out loud.
"Oh? Miss Ling, you seem to have forgotten that after leaving the Jiang family, I'm not only the behind-the-scenes chairman of the AX Group, but also the boss of the Dark Night Organization and a guest of honor of the A Country Royal Family. What about you?"
Another fatal blow, Ling Qingya seemed to have just remembered Jiang Luoning's identities.
After a moment of loss, he suddenly smiled decadently, as if he had finally accepted this reality and realized how unbearable he was in their eyes.
The series of actions just now made her look even more ridiculous under the influence of these words.
He no longer struggled or argued, but sat down on the ground powerlessly, his eyes expressionless.
"Jiang Luoning, do I look like a joke?"
The little girl didn't respond to the woman's sudden change, just looked at the woman on the ground.
Ling Qingya was stunned for a moment, then sat up straight, looked around at everyone in the room, breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed silently as if relieved. Before everyone could recover from her sudden change of state, they heard its weak voice.
"Since I was little, my father has told me that I must marry into an aristocratic family in the imperial capital to be considered successful! So I tried my best to get close to you two aristocratic families, but why didn't you even look at me? Faced with my father's pressure and expectations, I could only find an excuse to go abroad. At that time, my father thought I was trying to improve myself and happily agreed. But the freedom abroad made me truly happy."
After hearing the woman's inexplicable memories, everyone looked at each other, but no one tried to stop her. Jiang Luoning was even more curious and listened carefully to Ling Qingya's narration.
He always felt that the woman's relaxation at this moment would bring them some unexpected gains.
"But I met your eldest brother at a banquet abroad. I always approached him with a purpose before, but that time I was simply attracted to him. When my father found out about this, I thought he would be furious, but he actually praised me for being ambitious and finally having the awareness to consider the family."
Up to this point, no one interrupted, but the room fell into silence again. Ling Qingya seemed to be reminiscing and showed an inexplicable smile.
"Since then, I've always found excuses to return home and attended various banquets with my father, all for the chance to get close to Jiang Linghao. It wasn't until I heard from Dong Siqing that Chen Xu had saved your life that I took her advice, dropped out of school, and returned home to focus on getting close to him."
"Until I ran into you at the mall. I had already had an argument downstairs at the Jiang Corporation, and seeing you was beautiful, I was inexplicably annoyed. I took my anger out on you, but I didn't expect that my actions would make me the laughing stock of the day. Dong Siqing heard about this from somewhere and kindly invited me for coffee to comfort me."
As she spoke, Ling Qingya turned her gaze to Jiang Luoning, as if wanting to get a response from the little girl. Jiang Luoning did not dodge and continued the woman's words and asked:
"Did she also tell you that I was just a little girl who had just returned from my country and was only interested in currying favor with the rich and powerful?"
Hearing this, Ling Qingya smiled, as if in self-deprecating affirmation, and nodded slightly to agree with the little girl's statement.
In response to this, Jiang Luoning stopped talking and returned to silence, waiting for Ling Qingya to continue her story.
"Later, I saw that not only Third Master Fu but also Jiang Linghao took great care of you. I confirmed Dong Siqing's statement. They were afraid that you really had won the favor of the Jiang family, so they targeted you like that. But who could have thought that in the end, I would be the one making the joke!"
"Whose idea was it to drug the party?"
The one who asked the questions was Ah Xing. Seeing that Ling Qingya was no longer resistant, the boy softened his attitude towards her. He was not as aggressive as before, but still cold to the bone. The questions he asked were also the ones he cared about before.
"It's Dong Siqing, but I got the medicine through my friend in Country F."
"We were planning to drug you at that banquet and embarrass you in public, but we didn't expect you to leave early."
Since she had decided not to struggle anymore, she no longer hid anything in the face of any doubts or inquiries, and told everything frankly.
