Chapter 83 Because, all those works were written by me.
Jiangzhai.
Lu Yiwan was in a disheveled state, and her arrival in the living room immediately attracted the attention of the ladies.
"Hey, isn't this Wanwan? What happened to her?"
Su Yan quickly put down her teacup and got up to go over to her. "Wanwan, what happened to you? Who bullied you?"
Lu Yiwan suppressed her anger, fixed her hair, and greeted the ladies: "Hello, Aunt Xu, Aunt Meng, Aunt Lin."
"I was so busy with work that I didn't sleep all night and didn't pay much attention."
The ladies exchanged glances and nodded with smiles.
Su Yan: "You child, you should pay more attention to your appearance when you're busy with work. You're not a child anymore. Go take a shower. We're getting some jewelry for you. We've asked a few aunties to come and take a look."
Lu Yiwan was very dissatisfied with this marriage, but there was nothing she could do but nod in agreement.
After dealing with these wives, Lu Yiwan finally breathed a sigh of relief. As the wives left, they exchanged different glances.
Mrs. Meng: "What do you mean by 'busy with work'? What kind of work could make you look like that? She was out messing around before marriage. The Bo family will suffer for it in the future."
Mrs. Lin: "A fake is a fake. Even if you go abroad to get a gilded diploma, you can't change your petty nature."
Mrs. Xu: "Fortunately, it wasn't my son who married a daughter of the Lu family. Although our family is not as good as the Jiang family, at least we have a clean background, so we should still find a clean family to marry into."
As soon as she left, Lu Yiwan exploded, smashing the teacup on the ground, which startled Su Yan.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Yiwan cried and said to her, "Mom, Ajin must have been bewitched by Jiang Yimian. Jiang Yimian is so obviously using him, yet he turns a blind eye and even threw me out of SM."
"That's so embarrassing."
Su Yan's face turned ashen. "Don't you dare show your face in front of Bo Jinzhou again. If our family cooperates well with Bo Qingshan, we'll have everything we need."
Lu Yiwan shook her head: "Bo Yan'an is not even as good as a single hair of A Jin. I, Lu Yiwan, want the best."
Su Yan said with exasperation, "Why are you doing this? Bo Jinzhou is completely under Jiang Yimian's thumb. You have no chance."
Lu Yiwan wiped away her tears. "No, there's a chance."
"If we can't make a move on A Jin, then we'll target Jiang Yimian."

Early in the morning, Jiang Yimian dressed herself up and looked at her outfit in the mirror.
She wore a black French-style long dress with a coat over it. Her long, slightly wavy hair was draped behind her head. She had a tall and straight posture, a long and slender neck, and a fluffy scarf that made her fair skin look even more elegant.
Her delicate features were outlined, making her even more beautiful and eye-catching.
Bo Jinzhou walked into the dressing room and stood behind her. He was dressed in a suit and tie, and the crisp, hard suit gave him an air of authority.
He slightly raised his chin, his dark eyes haughty, and raised an eyebrow, "You're all dressed up so nicely today?"
Jiang Yimian turned around and smiled at him, "You can go to SM by yourself today, I have something to do and I'm going out for a bit."
Bo Jinzhou gripped her wrist and asked in a low voice, "Where are we going?"
"Today is Su Su's last performance of the year, I'm going to support her."
Bo Jinzhou's dark eyes held a probing look: "Isn't it the evening show?"
"The theater wasn't even open yet, even this early."
Jiang Yimian hadn't expected him to know so much, and she smiled slightly, saying, "You saw through me."
"I'm going to visit some of the directors of the Jiang family."
Without hesitation, Bo Jinzhou replied, "I'll go with you."
Jiang Yimian's slender, pale fingertips pressed against his cold, hard suit chest: "No need, I can handle it."
"Okay, call me if you need anything."
She was going to three companies in total. The directors of these three companies wielded considerable influence within the Jiang family business and were all people who had previously served under her maternal grandfather.
Jiang Yimian had met several of her grandfathers before, and they had treated her very well.
However, after his maternal grandparents passed away, Lu Wenchang took over the Jiang family business. Although they looked down on Lu Wenchang, he was indeed quite capable. Everyone valued their own interests highly and did not want to interfere in the Lu family's private affairs.
This is why Jiang Yimian didn't ask them for help at first.
Having witnessed too much hypocrisy from people, she no longer uses past relationships to ask for favors.
Even if it's Master Huo, asking him for help comes at a price.
The first place was the Li family's old residence. Upon learning her purpose, the housekeeper welcomed her inside.
The old man was fishing in his own fishpond. The sky was full of white fish, but he was in excellent spirits. Jiang Yimian waited quietly by his side, wearing high heels.
Soon the fishing rod moved, and the old man immediately reeled it in. A crucian carp of medium size was caught. The old man smiled and said, "We'll have crucian carp soup tonight."
He seemed to only then notice Jiang Yimian, his eyes lighting up, "You are...."
Jiang Yimian smiled and said, "Grandpa Li, I am Yimian."
Mr. Li took the handkerchief from the maid, wiped his hands, and looked her over carefully: "It really is Mianmian."
"How many years has it been since we last saw each other? Why haven't you come to visit Grandpa all these years?"
Jiang Yimian approached: "I'm very busy with my studies. I just graduated with my master's degree recently."
The two walked inside together. "A graduate student? That's impressive. What's your major?"
Jiang Yimian: "Jewelry design".
Mr. Li chuckled and said, "As expected of Old Jiang's granddaughter, she has inherited his good qualities. When your grandfather was alive, he had a keen eye and great insights into art, which is why we old men dared to work with him."
Sitting on the sofa in the hall, Jiang Yimian stood tall and straight, a polite smile always on her face. "When my maternal grandfather was alive, he often said that my grandfathers had been of great help to the Jiang family."
Old Li smiled and waved his hand: "I'm getting old, I don't have the same energy as before."
“Grandpa Li, you are still young, how can you be old? As far as I know, Brother Xin has also made a name for himself, just like you.”
Mr. Li smiled as he looked at her, his eyes gradually sharpening. "Mianmian, I know why you've come. I can't help you. The Jiang family has been under Lu Wenchang's control for years, and we've all witnessed his abilities."
Jiang Yimian simply took a sip of tea. "I know that you and your grandfathers have your own difficulties, but my purpose is not to get your grandfathers to help me take over the Jiang family business."
"and you……"
"Grandpa Li, you should also know about the uproar on the internet before."
Mr. Li leaned back lazily on the sofa. "Those are all fake. How could Yi Wan plagiarize?"
Jiang Yimian smiled faintly and took out a document: "This is Lu Yiwan's information over the years, including the universities she attended. She said she graduated from the California College of the Arts, but in fact she attended a diploma mill in California."
“Those academic qualifications and resumes were all fake; Lu Wenchang provided her with a perfect and glamorous facade.”
Master Li frowned, his face darkening as he flipped through the pages one by one.
"None of the works she has created for competitions, big or small, over the years have been written by her own hand."
Old Li grew increasingly angry as he looked at her, his gaze darkening: "How can you prove that those are all fake?"
Jiang Yimian met his gaze with neither humility nor arrogance, and said, word by word, "Because those works were all created by me."
"Grandpa Li, I've been Lu Yiwan's source material for seven years."
