"Ah, what are you doing!"
When splashed with ice water, Jiang Yuchen immediately jumped up and frantically took out a tissue to wipe himself.
"Mom, are you crazy?!"
If she wasn't crazy, why would she throw water at him, why would she revoke his position as CEO, and why would she not care about him, her biological son, after having an illegitimate child!
Jiang Yanyi slammed the "flying cup" he had just caught on the table. When the table and the cup collided, a harsh friction sound was made.
"It seems that you are not calm enough."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yanyi slapped Jiang Yuchen in the face. Jiang Yuchen was completely unprepared and his handsome face was hit hard by the slap.
Now not only Jiang Yuchen, but even the followers behind Jiang Yanyi gasped. "He's going crazy killing people! Madam is going crazy killing people!"
If asked to say the most correct decision he has made in his life, Special Assistant Li would definitely say without hesitation that it was that when something happened, he did not act stubbornly but immediately called for help, and the person he called back was his wife!
Tsk, that slap just now hit the president, but it made Old Li feel happy.
As expected, there is always a conqueror for everything, and my mother can conquer everything.
Special Assistant Li couldn't help but think of his daughter who is in high school. She has a catchphrase: I will hold high the banner for my wife!!!
Special Assistant Li wanted to make the smile on his face look less obvious, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not control the upturned corners of his mouth. In desperation, he could only try his best to lower his head and pretend that he was in pain.
On a daily basis, everyone had been oppressed by Jiang Yuchen for a long time. When they reported to him, he would either beat them or scold them, and he simply didn't treat them as human beings. Seeing the usually arrogant Jiang Yuchen being humiliated, many people present, like Li Tezhu, were mentally setting off firecrackers for the New Year. On the surface, everyone lowered their heads and ignored the CEO's embarrassed appearance, but in their hearts they kept shouting, "Good slap, good slap, give him two more slaps."
Everyone else was watching the show, but only the person involved, Jiang Yuchen, had gone mad. His eyes were red, and he growled desperately like a wounded beast: "You are not my mother at all."
"!" Jiang Yanyi's fingers suddenly retracted. Oh no, was she discovered? Although her boss hadn't said what would happen if she was discovered, it was still not good. This meant that her acting skills were not up to standard and she needed to reflect on it!
The string of rationality in Jiang Yuchen's mind was completely broken. He blurted out, "You can't stand me now that you have an illegitimate child, right? You finally have a reason to kick me out so that that good son can come, right? Your image of loving your son like your life has collapsed. You finally can't pretend anymore, right? If you think I'm in your way, why bother pretending until now? I tell you, you make me sick."
He didn't even call her mom anymore. Whenever he thought about how he had been slapped repeatedly recently, the rational world he had built up with great difficulty would slowly collapse again. No one, no one, had ever hit him like this. The woman in front of him who hit him repeatedly and didn't give him face in front of outsiders was not his mother at all!
Jiang Yanyi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn't that her acting was bad, but that his psychological quality was too poor.
She glanced at her palm in disbelief. She couldn't bear it and collapsed. It was just a slap. She hadn't even used more cruel means yet.
Tsk tsk, so vulnerable!
After the rejection, a huge sense of loss and sadness hit her heart again. Jiang Yan knew that this was not her feeling, but that of the original body. She felt sorry for the original body. She raised her son with all her heart and soul, her son who wanted to give the whole world to him, her son who died with his eyes open, but because of a slap in the face, he said that her kindness to him was all fake, and he wanted to create a ridiculous personality, and he also slandered her for having an illegitimate child.
How can this not be chilling?
Jiang Yan was so angry that her head hurt. She resisted the urge to slap him twice more and pointed to the door: "Get out, get out right now." She was afraid that if he didn't disappear from her sight, she would not be able to help but beat him into a pig's head.
Jiang Yuchen had completely given up. In his opinion, since they had already fallen out, there was no such thing as mother-son love. He snorted coldly: "Oh, let me get out? What, I have to leave so that you can make room for your illegitimate son? I tell you, don't dream. As long as I am alive, the Jiang Group will never fall into his hands. Just wait and see, I will definitely come back." After that, he picked up his suit jacket and walked to the door.
Jiang Yan replied expressionlessly: "Oh, I'll wait." She wanted to see what kind of success he could achieve without the support of the Jiang Group.
There were so many people in the office that they completely blocked Jiang Yuchen's way. Jiang Yuchen had a cold face and exuded a cold aura that kept strangers away. "Get out of my way." He rudely pushed away everyone who was petrified by the news that "the lady had an illegitimate child" and walked out in a rage.
It was not until a loud slam of the office door was heard that everyone woke up from their dream.
Everyone looked at Jiang Yanyi and couldn't help but smack their lips. Oh my god, illegitimate child, is this something they can listen to?!
How could Jiang Yanyi not see the inquiry and curiosity in their eyes? But she was too lazy to explain to them. Even if there was an illegitimate child, so what? The uterus belonged to the original body, and she had the freedom to control it. Did the original body have to report to them one by one when she got pregnant and gave birth? It wasn't like they were responsible for paying for milk powder and diapers.
They are all meddling in other people's business. They haven't even finished dealing with the trivial matters at home, but they are already concerned about her uterus. They are so bored.
Jiang Yan waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, let's go. The older you get, the more confused you tend to be. It's normal for Yuchen to be unable to accept the personnel changes for a while. Everyone should do what they should do. Only when the company is doing well can you all do well. Don't harm your own interests for irrelevant people and things."
Everyone was shocked. He was their son before, but he became an irrelevant person and an irrelevant thing so quickly. It seems that there is no family affection among wealthy families.
However, since the chairman had spoken, it was naturally not appropriate for anyone to stay any longer. Everyone returned to their posts reluctantly, looking back every few steps.
Su Zhao followed them out of the president's office. She reminded everyone that once they left the office, it would be best to keep any news they had just heard to themselves. If any news got out from outside, the group would immediately fire everyone present today and all related companies would never hire them again.
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly swore not to reveal a single word.
After finishing his instructions, Su Zhao returned to the office, "Madam, he..."
She didn't mention any name, but Jiang Yanyi knew who she was talking about.
Jiang Yanyi said nonchalantly: "If he wants to leave, let him go. I want to see what he can do. Didn't he say he would come back? I'll wait for him to come back." It's not that she, Jiang Yanyi, is targeting him, but in her opinion, Jiang Yuchen is trash.
"I understand ma'am."
"By the way, Xiao Zhao, for all the directors present today, if they find any crimes, we will send the evidence to the police."
Su Zhao looked at her, "But Madam..."
"I know, you mean to say that I just agreed to them and reached an agreement with them. So, I asked you to go, not to do it myself. See, didn't I let them go? They are committing crimes and harming the interests of the people. They are the enemies of the people. We must treat our enemies as ruthlessly as the autumn wind sweeps away fallen leaves. Never show mercy. Otherwise, being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself. You never know when they will stab you in the back. Besides, reporting illegal and criminal activities is the unshirkable duty of every citizen, isn't it?"
"I understand. I'll get it done."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly: "I trust you to do the job."
Su Zhao: "Madam, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Jiang Yanyi: "Wait..." She walked in front of Su Zhao, asked her to raise her head, and looked at her carefully.
Su Zhao has the appearance of a traditional lady from a noble family. She is gentle and generous, which makes people like her at first sight. Her appearance is just like her personality and ability. She is not competitive, but she can never be ignored in the crowd.
"Xiao Zhao, have you ever thought about leaving the Jiang family?"
Su Zhao, who was waiting for instructions, shook her body when she heard these words, raised her head and looked at Jiang Yanyi anxiously, "Madam, are you going to drive me away?" She usually did not show her emotions on her face, but her words trembled slightly.
"I'm not driving you away."
Su Zhao: "Is that because I didn't do well enough? If so, I can learn and change."
She didn't cry when Jiang Yuchen beat and scolded her, she didn't cry when people in the company pointed fingers at her, and she didn't cry when Jiang Yuchen violated her.
At this moment, she was crying uncontrollably, her tears pouring down like a torrent and arrogantly.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't cry. That's not what I meant. Didn't I tell you? I'm not chasing you away." Jiang Yanyi couldn't bear to see a woman cry. Seeing Su Zhao's tears, she immediately panicked and didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, Su Zhao heard the key words clearly and knew that she didn't want to drive him away.
She held back her tears and cautiously asked, "What does the lady mean?"
Jiang Yanyi sighed, "What I mean is that you are so outstanding and capable, there is no need for you to be a small manager here. What I mean is that I want to adopt you as my daughter, and then give you some funds, and you can go and try your hand in the field that interests you. I wonder if you are willing?" Jiang Yanyi was very nervous when she said this. She thought that this was her first time being a human being. Not only did she become a mother painlessly and gave birth to a big son, but now she even wants to adopt a daughter. It was so easy, she would have both a son and a daughter.
She felt Su Zhao was truly pitiful. Orphaned at such a young age, she was adopted by the Jiang family, but her position within the family was awkward, especially in front of Jiang Yuchen. Instead of treating her like a younger sister, Jiang Yuchen bullied and hurt her. She was also too sensible, fearing that her original self would be caught in the middle, so she never brought it up. Instead, she dedicated herself to doing everything she could, taking care of her original self and Jiang Yuchen at home, cleaning up after Jiang Yuchen at the company, and even, in the original novel, giving her life for him. Her life, it could be said, burned herself and ignited the Jiang family.
Fortunately, Su Zhao now has the opportunity to change his destiny. Jiang Yuchen is no longer the president, and the previous plot has deviated. Jiang Yanyi believes that Su Zhao's final fate must be different from before.
This is also one of the original body's wishes.
But she also knew that adopting Su Zhao as her daughter was just a one-sided idea on her part. Whether Su Zhao would agree or not was another matter. That was why she was so nervous and felt it was difficult to ask.
Everything is difficult at the beginning. She found that after she said the first word, the rest of the words were not that difficult. "Don't worry, I don't mean to drive you away. If you don't want to, then you can continue to do what you want here. The Jiang family will always be your home. No matter what, as long as you are happy, that's all that matters."
"Madam..." Su Zhao's tears, which she had finally managed to hold back, began to fall again. From the moment she held her hand in the orphanage, she had been filled with admiration for the woman before her. She fulfilled all her fantasies of a mother, satisfying the maternal love she lacked. She had secretly vowed to go through fire and water for the Jiang family, for her 'mother', without hesitation. So, despite the world's deception and slander, even Jiang Yuchen's insults and slander, she never wavered, never once thought of leaving. She had long since prepared to dedicate her life to the Jiang family.
Su Zhao never envied Jiang Yuchen because she knew that there was a difference between close relatives. Jiang Yuchen was his biological son, while she was adopted. No matter what her attitude was, it was normal. All she could do was be grateful.
She never expected that one day she would hear such dizzying and unimaginable news.
Become her daughter?
"Can I?"
Her expression was childlike innocence and confusion.
Jiang Yanyi let out a long sigh of relief and smiled: "Why not? Unless you don't want to."
"Yes, I do." She has been waiting for so many years to be able to call her mom openly one day.
"..." Su Zhao couldn't wait to open her mouth and shout, however, she was homesick and couldn't shout at this moment. No matter how hard she tried, the word "Mom" seemed to be sealed in her mouth, with no possibility of seeing the light of day.
Jiang Yanyi leaned over and gently hugged her, patting her back, "Thank you, my daughter."
"……Mother!"
Finally, these two words came out of Su Zhao's mouth. She shouted them out with all her strength. She had spent half her life's energy for these two words, like a drowning man grasping at a life-saving straw, a traveler walking in the desert finally saw an oasis, and her wandering heart finally found a home.
She has a mother, she has a home.
/
While Jiang Yanyi and Su Zhao were showing their deep mother-daughter love, Jiang Yuchen, who ran away from home in anger, was throwing a tantrum in the detention center.
His suit was no longer ironed, clinging to his body with wrinkles, and his hair was a mess, like a chicken coop. However, his aura was still full, and he had the CEO's style nailed down.
"I'm telling you, I'm the president of the Jiang Group. We're a major taxpayer. The little money I leak through my fingers every year is enough for you to live on for most of your lives. If you don't let me go, I'll move the company overseas. You won't even have time to cry."
He had said this sentence over and over again since he entered the detention center, and the police officer beside him was about to get calluses from hearing it. He had no choice but to explain it to Jiang Yuchen again: "Sir, the Constitution clearly stipulates that no organization or individual shall have privileges that exceed the Constitution and the law. In short, everyone is equal before the law. Finance is taken from the people and used for the people. You are a major taxpayer. As a financial supporter, I am very grateful for your hard work and thank you for abiding by the discipline and paying taxes on time. But even if you are a major taxpayer, you do not have any privileges. Our taxes are compulsory, gratuitous and fixed, so you cannot seek privileges just because you pay a lot of taxes. According to reports and our verification, you were speeding in the downtown area half an hour ago, paralyzed by traffic. At the same time, you also damaged the bridge pier due to speeding and attempted to escape the accident. You are suspected of dangerous driving and traffic accidents. In summary, we cannot let you go just because you pay a lot of taxes."
Jiang Yuchen cursed angrily: "Shit." He didn't expect that he was so unlucky. He was extremely upset after leaving the company just now. It happened that a few young men who often drank with him called him and asked him to go out for a drink. He was feeling depressed and needed to find a place to vent, so he agreed without thinking.
Normally, he drove with no scruples. It was always the case that people would give way to him simply by seeing his car and license plate, never asking him to give way to others. Today, he was already feeling unhappy, so naturally, he drove faster than usual. Who knew that those blind people on the road wouldn't give way to him, even when he honked. He had no choice but to step on the accelerator. He had plenty of money, anyway. If someone dared not give way and hit his car, it would only be the other person who couldn't afford to pay for his car, not him. It all came down to whether the other person was more unlucky or his car was more expensive.
Who knew that there were really people who were so blind that when they saw his car, they not only didn't dodge, but also tried to overtake his car. Everyone wanted to step on him and no one took him seriously, right? If that's the case, don't blame him for being rude.
He gritted his teeth and rushed forward, but a large truck suddenly appeared from the side. If he hadn't reacted quickly and had good driving skills, he would have been killed by the truck. But the result was that he crashed into the bridge pier, and his car, the only one of its kind in the world, was scrapped.
Damn, bad luck!
The police were still explaining legal knowledge to him, but the more he listened, the angrier he became, and he felt like his head was about to explode.
"Stop arguing. I want to see my lawyer. Call my lawyer. I want to talk to my lawyer."
The police officer who had been explaining the situation to him gave him a sympathetic look and said, "I've just contacted your lawyer, and he said he can't come."
Jiang Yuchen's eyes widened. "Can't come? Why? What could be more important than my business? He's my personal lawyer. Do I spend tens of millions every year hiring him just for show?"
The police hesitated and said, "That's... hard to say."
Jiang Yuchen was impatient: "What's so bad about it?"
The police gave him a suggestion: "How about you contact him again?"
Jiang Yuchen was furious. "If you want to contact me, just give me my phone."
After getting his cell phone, Jiang Yuchen dialed the number of his exclusive lawyer.
"Hello, your phone bill is overdue, please pay the bill..."
Out of payment?
Jiang Yuchen widened his eyes again and looked at his mobile phone in disbelief. In the past thirty years, the word "arrears" had never appeared in his life. When these two words fell into his ears, it seemed like a mockery and insult to him.
Why am I in arrears!!!
How do those secretaries do their work!!!
Jiang Yuchen's face looked as stinky as if he was constipated. He fiddled with his mobile phone with a cold face. He actually owed money. It would be great if he could pay it. What could be difficult for him? He was the president of Jiang Group.
Then……
How do I pay the phone bill?
Forgive him, he has never experienced arrears, let alone paying any phone bills.
He held the phone and stared at it.
The scene was very quiet for a while.
After a long time, he had to lower his noble head and ask the police for help: "Help me pay the phone bill."
The police did not care about his attitude. They serve the people and they have no choice but to meet their needs.
The police took his phone, connected him to the police station's wifi, and paid his phone bill.
After failing more than a dozen times, the police officer looked at the bank card on the screen, which had turned gray and unusable, and kindly said, "Sir, how about... I lend you ten dollars to top it up?"
