Chapter 432 Thought I Discovered a Secret
This secret! This is a huge secret!
Does Chi Wenyan know? He definitely doesn't know! Otherwise, with his control and pride, how could he tolerate such a thing!
Xiaoya's eyes gleamed with a vicious gleam, brighter and crazier than ever before. She had originally only sought an opportunity to harm the two children and cause Ji Wan pain. But now, she held a far more deadly weapon in her hands.
A handle that is enough to completely destroy Ji Wan and make her irreparable!
"Hahaha..." The suppressed laughter spilled out from her throat, gloomy and distorted, "Ji Wan, Ji Wan, you schemed so hard to hide it from the world, but you didn't expect that I would find out!"
She is no longer the poor thing who was abandoned and had nowhere to go!
She has the knowledge of a shocking scandal that could ruin Ji Wan's reputation!
"Your good days are over!" Xiaoya raised her head, and the smile on her pale face became more ferocious. She looked at the figure of Ji Wan gently calling the two children in the distance, her eyes like a poisoned dagger.
"I'll let you experience what it's like to fall from the clouds into hell! It'll be a hundred times, a thousand times worse than mine!"
She turned and walked briskly out of the park, each step filled with the pleasure of revenge and the excitement of impending success. A more sinister and malicious plan quickly took shape in her mind.
Xiaoya deliberately chose a secluded corner in the Chi family garden and stopped Ji Wan who was walking alone.
There was a twisted excitement on her face, and her eyes were fixed on Ji Wan, as if the hunter had finally waited for the moment when the prey fell into the trap.
"Ji Wan," she deliberately slowed down her speech, each word laced with malicious pleasure, "Let's talk about it, shall we? About your...special daughter."
Ji Wan paused, her gaze fixed calmly on Xiaoya's face, which had become a bit ferocious due to her excitement. She even curled the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a faint smile, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. "Is it you? What's wrong?"
"Of course there's something! It's a huge deal!" Xiaoya's voice couldn't help but rise, then suddenly lowered. She leaned closer and said in a tone she thought was threatening, "I know everything! Your daughter's secret!"
She stared into Ji Wan's eyes, expecting to see even the slightest hint of panic or fear. However, Ji Wan's eyes remained clear, and there was even a hint of amusement in his faint smile.
It's like looking at a clown who overestimates his own abilities.
"Oh?" Ji Wan tilted his head slightly, his tone as relaxed as if he was discussing the weather. "What secret?"
This completely nonchalant attitude deeply hurt Xiaoya! She clenched her fists and almost screamed: "I know she is not Chi Wenyan's daughter at all! In fact... she has no blood relationship with you! Right? Ji Wan! You liar! How dare you deceive Chi Wenyan and raise a child of unknown origin in the Chi family! If Mr. Chi knew..."
There was a crazy light in Xiaoya's eyes. She imagined the scene of Ji Wan crying bitterly and kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more proud.
"What do you think? Are you scared? Ji Wan! As long as you are sensible and give me a sum of money, enough for me to live comfortably for the rest of my life, I will help you keep this secret. Otherwise, I will tell Mr. Chi immediately! When that happens, everything you have now will be gone!"
She was full of confidence, waiting for Ji Wan to collapse and surrender.
However, Ji Wan burst out laughing. The laughter was crisp and full of undisguised mockery, like a needle that pierced Xiaoya's self-righteous fantasy.
"Xiaoya," Ji Wan's smile faded, but his eyes still held that embarrassing amusement. "Have you been reading some inferior novel, or have you been feeling down lately?"
"You, what do you mean?" Xiaoya was caught off guard by the sudden ridicule, and her cheeks turned red instantly.
"What I mean is," Ji Wan's tone remained gentle, yet it carried a condescending pity, "you're talking nonsense. Just based on a few gossips you heard from the nanny, you dare come to me and make such nonsense?"
"I'm not kidding. I heard it with my own ears. They all said my daughter doesn't look like you or Mr. Chi!" Xiaoya argued frantically, her face flushed. "And then there's your attitude towards your daughter! Mr. Chi's preference for his son! These are all proof!"
"Evidence?" Ji Wan shook her head as if she had heard a huge joke. The interest in her eyes disappeared, leaving only pure indifference. "Delusion is a disease and needs treatment. Do you want me to recommend a psychiatrist for you?"
Xiaoya looked into Ji Wan's calm, unwavering eyes. There was no fear, no guilt, only utter...contempt. A chill ran down her spine, and for the first time, her unshakable confidence wavered. How could this be? How could she not be afraid at all? This didn't make sense!
"You... stop pretending." Xiaoya's voice trembled unconsciously. "You must be holding on! You're scared!"
"I've heard enough of your nonsense." Ji Wan lost her patience. She didn't even bother to look at Xiaoya again and walked straight past her. "If you have so much energy, why not find a proper job?"
The calm and unhurried back was elegant and straight, without any embarrassment or guilt.
Xiaoya froze in place, the color draining from her face, leaving only an embarrassed paleness. Ji Wan's reaction was like a loud slap in the face, slapping her hard!
Nothing she expected happened, no panic, no fear, only ridicule and disregard!
"Ji Wan! Just wait! I won't let you go! I'll definitely expose you!" Xiaoya growled in frustration at the receding figure, her voice so weak that even she couldn't hear it clearly. She gritted her teeth, thinking Ji Wan must be acting!
She must be scared to death, because she has the leverage that can ruin her forever, and she will never give up.
On the other side, Ji Wan returned to the house, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up again.
I almost laughed out loud.
How dare Xiaoya come to negotiate with her so confidently with those groundless, ridiculous "evidence"?
She walked to the sofa and sat down, picking up a magazine and flipping through it.
Should I tell Chi Wenyan about this?
The thought only stayed in her mind for a moment before she rejected it.
never mind.
This lowly little character wasn't worthy of disturbing his peace. He was just a clown, she could handle it herself.
Ji Wan's fingertips gently brushed across the smooth paper, and a hint of coldness flashed deep in his eyes.
Xiaoya’s good days are indeed coming to an end, but it may not be what she imagined.
