Jiang Li felt that she had returned at the wrong time.
Why did you choose this exact time to come back?
Moreover, she is indeed not suited to be a bystander in this kind of situation.
Otherwise, wouldn't Jiang Xueqi resent him even more?
Never mind...
As Jiang Li thought about it, she was about to pull her leg back from the doorway.
Let's slip away first.
Before she could completely disappear, Jiang Chi's voice rang out again, "Jiang Li, come here."
Jiang Li: "???"
no……
Why are you punishing someone during a family meeting, and why are you dragging her along?
However, Jiang Chi's tone was relatively mild, so Jiang Li didn't argue with him.
She stepped inside, looking at everyone with a puzzled expression. "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to include me in your family meeting?"
One sentence instantly changed everyone's expressions.
Jiang Li has truly separated herself from them very clearly.
“This matter is also related to you.” Jiang Chengying was silent for a moment before speaking.
He originally wanted to clarify the rumors, but his agent found out who leaked Jiang Li's information.
This matter then involved Jiang Xueqi.
This made things a bit more complicated.
Jiang Xueqi is a member of the Jiang family, and also his beloved younger sister...
Who would have thought...
She actually got involved in this, and even played an important role, fueling the flames?
He had always thought Jiang Xueqi was well-behaved and sensible. Jiang Li's return might make her uneasy, because of those inexplicable emotions, she might involuntarily do some bad things...
Minor squabbles are fine.
However, the nature of this matter is egregious.
When Jiang Chengying heard the report from her agent, she couldn't believe it.
You should know that this incident will not only ruin Jiang Li, but also him.
How could he accept that his beloved younger sister treated him like this?
After the family found out about this, they naturally wouldn't pretend that nothing had happened.
They can tolerate Jiang Xueqi's temper tantrums, but only on the premise of protecting the Jiang family's reputation.
so……
Jiang Chi then punished Jiang Xueqi without any mercy.
Jiang Li's expression was indifferent, and her tone was flat. "This matter does involve me, but I believe you will handle it well, so you can discuss it yourselves."
Jiang Chengying: "..."
The most effective way to resolve this issue is to announce Jiang Li's true identity.
In this way, all speculation and conspiracy theories will disappear.
However, Jiang Li did not want to reveal her identity, which became a major headache for everyone.
Ambiguous clarifications are not convincing; instead, they reinforce people's misconceptions, making them believe that Jiang Li is his girlfriend and that he said those things to protect her.
He did draft a proposal, but he couldn't get past his own mental hurdle, so he was even more embarrassed to tell Jiang Li.
"Xueqi, what are you standing there for?" Jiang Chi suddenly snapped at Jiang Xueqi, who was kneeling there silently, and said unhappily, "Have you forgotten what you're supposed to be doing?"
Jiang Xueqi immediately changed direction and faced Jiang Li.
Jiang Li couldn't bear Jiang Xueqi's kneeling, so she dodged away from directly in front of Jiang Xueqi.
“I’m still young and don’t need to be worshipped. Your worship will shorten my lifespan,” Jiang Li said with a serious expression. “If you want me to die early, you don’t need to use such a vicious method.”
Jiang Xueqi: "..."
The Jiang family members: "..."
Jiang Xueqi bit her lip, but her gaze toward Jiang Li seemed to be venomous. However, she had to suppress her emotions and try her best to put on a docile appearance of admitting her mistakes and correcting them.
"Jiang Li, I'm sorry. I really didn't expect things to escalate like this. I truly know I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
Jiang Li scoffed and replied decisively, "No."
Jiang Xueqi choked and couldn't continue the conversation.
"Alright." Jiang Li clapped her hands and stretched. "I know what you're up to, but you want me to forgive Jiang Xueqi? Impossible. I have no problem with you being close to her and wanting to protect her, but since she's bullied me, she should bear the consequences. I'm already being lenient by not suing her, but if you want me to pretend to be her best friend, I have three words for you... impossible!"
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Chengying called out to Jiang Li as she was about to go upstairs.
"Is there anything else?"
"I wrote a PR statement and wanted to show it to you." Jiang Chengying took out her phone, looking a little uncomfortable.
Jiang Li took it and glanced at it.
The general idea behind the PR statement is that he didn't want to pay attention to it after it became a trending topic.
However, as the matter escalated and the rumors became increasingly outrageous, Jiang Chengying was forced to issue a statement to clarify the situation.
First of all, his surname is Jiang Chengying.
Jiang Li's information was discovered by everyone; she also has the surname Jiang.
They can have any kind of relationship, but they will definitely not be lovers.
At the same time, Jiang Li is an ordinary person, so please do not disturb her anymore.
This clarification statement is indeed somewhat vague. Although it indicates that Jiang Li has some connection with the Jiang family, however…
Most people would assume that they were related by blood or marriage.
You would never guess that Jiang Li is Jiang Chengying's younger sister.
After reading it, Jiang Li said, "Let's clarify it like this for now and see how the internet reacts. If it still doesn't work, we'll take other measures."
"Okay." Jiang Chengying thought Jiang Li would be dissatisfied with the proposal, but to her surprise, she actually agreed.
Jiang Li returned to her room, washed up, and began drawing talismans.
After drawing the talisman and replenishing some energy, Jiang Li continued making things.
The gift I need to prepare for Ayan can't be delayed any longer.
Since I was in the mood, I decided to do them all at once.
Jiang Li makes very good use of her evenings.
After finishing what she was doing, Jiang Li lay down and scrolled through Weibo for a while.
Jiang Chengying's copywriting convinced a group of people of his words.
However, some critics and trolls have said that Jiang Chengying avoided the main issues and gave a vague and unclear explanation.
However, some people almost guessed the truth correctly.
[You shouldn't disbelieve this clarification; I actually think my brother and that girl look a bit alike.]
Yes, yes, I thought they looked like a perfect match, like a married couple. Now that I think about it... um...
[Ha, please stop trying to comfort yourselves. Jiang Chengying does have a younger sister, but Jiang Li comes from a small town. Stop fooling yourselves, okay?]
[They're not blood-related siblings, but can't they have some kind of kinship? They're both ordinary people, and the brother has stated that they could never be lovers, so why are you all still making a fuss about it?]
Not now, but who knows what the future holds?
[If he officially announces that his partner is Jiang Li, I will immediately unfollow him and turn against him!]
[Hatemakers, please shut up. I believe in my brother. And please, everyone, stop bothering ordinary people.]
[...]
As the storm gradually came under control, Jiang Li curled her lips and logged into her main Weibo account.
Then I posted a Weibo post.
Metaphysics Little Ancestor V: I'm in a good mood today, so I'm giving away three fortune sticks for free. First come, first served. Leave a comment in the comment section quickly, or you'll miss out.
As soon as the Weibo post was published, Jiang Li received hundreds more comments.
