Chapter 86: Money Worship and the Wheelchair Boss 2
Cha Jiu's eyes instantly turned red.
But she was still like a cautious little beast, trying her best to hold up the thorns on her body: "Since the Jiang family has decided to break off the engagement with me, why should Mr. Jiang pretend to care about me?"
"Break the engagement" Jiang Tingxu frowned slightly, "When did the Jiang family say they wanted to break off the engagement?"
"A few days ago." Cha Jiu's voice was cold and aggrieved, "After my mother passed away."
Jiang Tingxu's eyes darkened.
He tilted his head and told the bodyguard beside him: "Go and call Jiang Chen over."
Cha Jiu heard the displeasure in his tone.
And that's exactly what she wanted.
The Jiang family is a century-old family in Beijing. They have produced many great people in politics and business, and they attach great importance to the words "gratitude and righteousness".
Jiang Tingxu would never allow Jiang Chen to regret the engagement.
And the other party saved the daughter of his benefactor.
Jiang Chen, who was called over, felt a little nervous.
Although he is Jiang Tingxu's adopted son, he is usually treated with respect by everyone.
But deep down, he was still very afraid and distant towards this high-ranking adoptive father.
Because Jiang Tingxu was very strict with him both in life and in his studies as an heir.
But no matter how hard he tried, all he got was Jiang Tingxu's dissatisfied words: "Jiang Chen, you are still far from it."
Over time, when facing Jiang Tingxu, Jiang Chen was always worried that he had done something wrong and made his adoptive father angry.
When Jiang Chen saw Cha Jiu was there too, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
Sure enough, she was playing tricks again.
"You and Miss Ye told each other that you wanted to cancel the engagement," Jiang Ting asked.
"It's not a break-up, it's a change of person. I want to change to another young lady from the Ye family, Ye Nian'en." Jiang Chen said.
"Ye Qinghuan is vulgar and materialistic, uneducated and unskilled. I don't think she is qualified to be my wife."
He had not had time to tell Jiang Tingxu about this decision because he thought it was not a big deal.
It's just a matter of getting engaged to a more educated and well-mannered young lady from the Ye family. This will also be a way to repay the favor, and it will only benefit the Jiang family and not harm them. Jiang Tingxu should not disagree.
"absurd."
Jiang Tingxu's voice was not loud, but it was full of the shocking power of a superior: "Kneel down in front of Madam Ye and apologize for your offense."
Not to mention Jiang Chen, even Cha Jiu was shocked.
In such a public place, Jiang Tingxu really didn't give his adopted son any face at all.
Ye's father came over to persuade him: "Mr. Jiang, this is not allowed. How can Mr. Jiang kneel down..."
Jiang Tingxu interrupted him: "He knelt before the benefactor who saved his life, so there is nothing he can't do."
The Jiang family had strict family discipline and always opposed their children being arrogant and not knowing how to humble themselves.
Jiang Chen knew it in his heart, so he knelt down obediently.
Jiang Tingxu made an irreversible decision in front of everyone: "Since the Jiang family has decided that Ye Qinghuan will be the heir to the family during Mrs. Ye's lifetime, this will not change no matter who takes over the Jiang family in the future."
Both Ye's father and Ye Nian'en's expressions changed.
Jiang Tingxu's words were very clear. If Jiang Chen didn't want to marry Ye Qinghuan, then he wouldn't have to take the position of heir.
The system doesn't understand: "Why would Jiang Tingxu rather not have an heir than protect you?"
Cha Jiu watched all this with a clear mind.
"Jiang Tingxu is not protecting me, but the Jiang family's reputation and reputation, which are far more important than Jiang Chen. Moreover, judging from Jiang Tingxu's attitude, Jiang Chen is not an irreplaceable successor."
The relationship between Jiang Tingxu and Jiang Chen does not seem to be unbreakable.
Jiang Chen was afraid of Jiang Tingxu and obeyed him, but he did not get close to him.
Jiang Tingxu was also somewhat dissatisfied with this adopted son who seemed to be out of control.
Keeping the engagement person unchanged may be a warning to Jiang Chen for his self-willed attitude.
The system sighed: "Rich people are so complicated."
Cha Jiu: "They are a top-tier wealthy family with a history of over a hundred years. Naturally, they are not the type to resort to petty tricks like Ye Zhenjiang and Ye Nian'en."
Soon, Ye's father's expression returned to normal and he came over to smooth things over.
"Mr. Jiang, this matter is actually Qing Huan's fault. I indulged her willful behavior and she dared to say anything, which made you and Mr. Jiang unhappy..."
Ye Nian'en supported him and explained with a worried look on her face: "I'm sorry, my sister is simple-minded and speaks directly. I apologize for her. I hope Mr. Jiang and Mr. Jiang will forgive me."
She bent slightly and apologized on behalf of Cha Jiu.
Ye Zhiyuan, as Cha Jiu's biological brother, stood aside and listened indifferently.
He also agreed that the Ye family had spoiled Cha Jiu to the point of lawlessness, which was why she was so stupid and embarrassed herself in public.
With the gentle and polite Ye Nian'en as a backdrop, the people around him looked at Cha Jiu with even more contempt.
Simple and direct, Ye Nian'en used these two words to label Cha Jiu.
But the fiancée of the Chiang family heir should be smart, thoughtful, and versatile, and is definitely not someone who can be a brainless, low-EQ, gold-digger.
Cha Jiu turned his gaze to Jiang Tingxu.
She wondered how he would respond.
This will determine her judgment of him and how she approaches him next.
The words of Ye's father and Ye Nian'en did not make Jiang Tingxu look down on Cha Jiu. Instead, they made him clearly see her difficult situation in the Ye family.
No wonder she said she had nothing left.
No one in the Ye family loves her at all.
Poor little kid.
Jiang Tingxu gave Cha Jiu a look of faint sympathy in return.
Cha Jiu frowned and complained to the system: "Why do I feel like he is pitying me?"
System: "Remove the feeling. He is just pitying you. His favorability towards you is now 30%."
Cha Jiu was surprised: "So high!"
System: "Jiang Tingxu is a man who takes pleasure in repaying his debts. He values Mrs. Ye's righteous deeds, so he has some feelings for you. Another point is that you played the role of a simple-minded person so well."
Cha Jiu looked strange: "He likes this one"
After analyzing Jiang Tingxu's personality, the system came to the conclusion: "He likes simple people."
Cha Jiu seemed to be thinking about something.
"There is nothing wrong with being simple and direct. On the contrary, people who beat around the bush and have bad intentions are annoying." Jiang Ting seemed to have a hidden meaning in his preface.
The perfect smile on Ye Nian'en's face was a little stiff.
"Let's go." After supporting Cha Jiu's waist, Jiang Tingxu closed his eyes slightly, as if he was a little fed up with these unpresentable schemes.
The bodyguard pushed his wheelchair towards the car in the distance.
Jiang Chen stood up from the ground and looked at Cha Jiu with disgust: "No wonder you agreed so readily that day, it turned out to be for today."
"Ye Qinghuan, even if I can't be the heir of the Jiang family, I will not marry someone like you." He said harshly, "I don't want to look at you even once in my life."
Cha Jiu tilted his head to look at him, and finally a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "That's not easy to say."
Jiang Chen was very alert this time: "What do you want to do?"
Cha Jiu didn't respond to him. She picked up the handkerchief from the ground and ran straight towards Jiang Tingxu's car.
"Mr. Jiang!"
Jiang Tingxu turned around and saw Cha Jiu jogging to him, holding his knees and panting.
"What's wrong?" he asked patiently.
"I apologize for what happened just now."
Cha Jiu tightly grasped the dirty handkerchief in her hand, as if she was still ashamed of having just thrown away the handkerchief and offended Jiang Tingxu.
"It doesn't matter. I can understand the out-of-control emotions after losing a loved one," Jiang Tingxu said.
"Can I have your contact information?"
Cha Jiu asked hesitantly.
