Chapter 172 Waiting for the Day the Machete Falls
"Yaoyao, my dear granddaughter!"
"Let me see, you've lost weight."
Old Mrs. Jiang pinched her face distressedly.
"No way."
Jiang Yao acted coquettishly and held each of their arms.
"Grandpa and grandma, why didn't you tell me you were coming? If you missed me, you could have called me and asked me to come back to see you!"
Old Master Jiang looked at her seriously and said, "We just want to come and see if you are doing well and if anyone is bullying you. If so, grandpa will come to support you!"
Although he is over seventy years old, the old man still exudes the same aura as before.
Jiang Yao felt a surge of warmth in his heart, and couldn't help but smile with his eyes curved, "Who dares to bully me? Besides, my uncle and the others are here!"
"That's true." Mr. Jiang's expression finally relaxed.
The family walked out while talking, the atmosphere was warm and harmonious.
Seeing that it was still early, Jiang Yao took the initiative to suggest taking them out for a walk.
The old couple naturally would not refuse.
Jiang Yao took them directly to the largest shopping mall in Kyoto, "Wanyue Port".
She herself has never been to this place.
After parking the car, Jiang Yao took them into the mall. Their feet were on the luxurious marble floor, and above their heads were the artistic reliefs on the high dome.
The space is kept at a constant temperature and humidity, with comfortable soft chairs every few meters, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Jiang Yao felt that he had chosen the right place.
"Grandma and Grandpa, this is the largest shopping mall in Kyoto. They have everything. I'll pay for whatever you want to buy."
Mrs. Jiang patted her head and smiled kindly, "Why should you pay?"
Jiang Yao thought they loved her and didn't want her to spend money, so she said helplessly, "Grandma, I just want to show my appreciation. You don't have to save money for me."
As a result, a mysterious smile appeared on the faces of the old couple at the same time.
Just as she was puzzled, a middle-aged man in a suit came out of the store and said respectfully to the Jiang couple, "Chairman, Madam, welcome to our local area. Please let us know if you need anything."
Jiang Yao opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Here..."
Old Master Jiang said cheerfully, "Don't you know? This is our Jiang family's property. As our Jiang family's little princess, you can come and get whatever you want for free. You don't even need to pay for it."
Jiang Yao: "..."
It’s actually like this!
She was once again shocked by her family's wealth.
Being treated like a princess is not just talk!
…
at the same time.
On the other hand, Fang Hui has never had a peaceful day since she was harassed by Dong Chenli's family.
This family is greedy, wanting this and that all the time. Today, they forced her to go out with them and go shopping with them in a large shopping mall, making it clear that they wanted her to pay the bill.
Fang Hui was furious, and just when her patience was about to reach its limit, she happened to see Jiang Yao walking past the store opposite with an elderly couple.
Her expression suddenly changed.
She had seen Jiang Yao before, but the old couple beside her——
The old man was wearing a high-quality Zhongshan suit and had an elegant temperament.
Another old lady was wearing a retro cheongsam, and her carefully selected jade earrings swayed gently on her ears, which were obviously priceless at first glance.
He is obviously a person of noble status.
Could it be that they are Jiang Yao's family, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang? !
She looked at Dong Chenli and Dong's mother beside her, whose clothes could not hide their rusticity and their rural identities.
There is no harm without comparison.
It’s all her sister’s fault for having no vision. She didn’t know how to cherish such a good daughter-in-law like Jiang Yao. The Jiang family should have become relatives with them.
What’s the result now?
She felt sorry for Lu Xuan.
And what sin did I commit to deserve to be tied up with Dong Chenli's weird family?
No, she had to find a way to turn the situation around.
Thinking of this, Fang Hui sent the three Dong family members into a store and said, "I'm going to the bathroom. You guys go shopping first."
Under the pretext of going to the restroom, she finally got rid of Dong Chenli and her daughter. After tidying up her appearance, she walked towards the old couple of the Jiang family.
As soon as Jiang Yao left, Fang Hui took the initiative to approach and strike up a conversation: "Mr. and Mrs., I see this is your first time in this store. I've been here many times. You want to pick out some jewelry? How about I introduce it to you?"
She acted like someone who had been hanging out with the ladies for many years, and was very enthusiastic, trying to leave a good impression on them.
The old couple of the Jiang family were originally waiting for Jiang Yao to come back from the bathroom.
Seeing the strange woman walking towards him, he looked suspicious and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm in the same circle as you guys, and I think you're particularly appealing to me. I'd like to make friends with you."
Fang Hui was elegant and friendly, and introduced the store's products to them clearly, appearing to have genuinely good intentions.
But after all, Mr. Jiang has been in the business world for many years, so how could he not see that she was trying to show her goodwill?
I just don't understand why she would do this.
Just as he was about to speak to test the waters, a figure rushed out from behind and said sarcastically.
"My dear in-laws, your family is already bankrupt, why are you still pretending?"
Dong's mother suddenly appeared out of nowhere and looked at Fang Hui with a mocking expression, "You can't even afford a piece of expensive jewelry, why are you pretending to be a lady?"
Fang Hui had never thought she would be put down on the spot. Her face flushed with anger, and she shouted angrily, "Shut up! Stop talking nonsense here!"
"I'm talking nonsense, it's obviously you who are shameless!"
The two of them started arguing with each other in front of the old couple of the Jiang family.
The old couple frowned as they watched the farce in front of them, and became more and more speechless.
Just then, Jiang Yao came back from the bathroom and his face suddenly changed when he saw the two people arguing opposite the old couple.
"What are you doing here!?"
A familiar voice sounded.
Dong's mother suddenly stopped talking, turned around and saw Jiang Yao, her face was immediately filled with fear, like a mouse seeing a cat, she restrained her arrogance and ran away.
"Yaoyao, do you know her?" Old Mrs. Jiang asked curiously.
Jiang Yao glanced at Fang Hui indifferently, "She is my ex-boyfriend's aunt."
I've seen her two or three times at parties before, and she has a good memory, so it's not that easy for her to forget.
Each of these members of this family is really haunting us!
"Okay, it turns out to be the Lu family."
The old couple's expressions changed instantly.
Old Master Jiang raised his eyelids, and his gaze was like a bullet shot out of a gun, carrying the majesty and sharpness of a person in power for decades, and shot straight at Fang Hui.
"The Jiang family will always remember the good things you have done. Just wait and see!"
He didn't say how he would retaliate.
But fear came like a tide.
Fang Hui was so frightened that she was shaking like a sieve, the blood drained from her face, and her legs were so weak that she almost fell to her knees on the spot.
"Okay, grandpa and grandma, don't let this kind of person spoil your fun. Let's continue shopping."
Until Jiang Yao took them away.
Fang Huicai realized that her back was already soaked with cold sweat. Invisible fear enveloped her, making her unable to make a sound.
She would probably live in this fear every day from now on, waiting for the machete to fall from her head.
