Ji Yuwei never expected that she would see Jiang Nian's name trending on social media again last night.
#Jiang Nianji's daughter#
#Jianbo's Real Identity#
#Jiang Nianjianbo and his sister#
...
In the leaked video, the eldest brother holds Jiang Nian in his arms, his eyes filled with heartache. The grandfather angrily tells everyone that Jiang Nian is the Ji family's darling, and anyone who dares to bully her is going against the Ji family.
Sixth Brother, who had been living abroad, not only returned to China, but also humbled himself to become a high school piano teacher for Jiang Nian, despite his wealth and status.
Even in front of the camera, disregarding the opinions of others, he kissed Jiang Nian's forehead, telling everyone that he cherished his sister like a treasure.
She was the apple of everyone's eye, the darling of a wealthy family.
It was exactly the scene she had been dreaming of.
But unfortunately, she had nothing.
She hadn't stepped foot in the Ji family's house in ages; even the servants didn't welcome her. Not to mention, her sixth brother had returned to the country without even telling her.
Jiang Nianyi was found and brought back. From her grandfather to all her brothers, everyone was bewitched by her, and she no longer had a place in the entire Ji family!
Just because Jiang Nian is their biological granddaughter and younger sister, while she has no real blood relation with the Ji family?
Even though they are not related by blood, does that mean she is not related to the family by blood? She grew up in the Ji family and always called him "Grandpa" and "Brother"?
Ji Yuwei was practically driven mad with jealousy.
She didn't believe at all that the Ji family's current attitude towards her was because of the things she had done to hurt Jiang Nian in the past.
Now, only her grandfather in the Ji family still treats her well. She couldn't hold it in for a day, so she called to complain.
Grandpa Ji was quite surprised to receive Ji Yuwei's call.
The younger generation didn't actually tell Ji Yuwei why he moved out of the Ji family, for fear of affecting his mood while he was recuperating.
But as astute as Old Master Ji was, he could tell at a glance that Ji Yuwei hadn't left willingly. He asked the housekeeper and found out the whole story.
Although Ji Yuwei is not of Ji family blood, Old Master Ji raised her as a member of the Ji family from a young age. However, he never expected that this child would be so wicked.
Grandpa Ji was also very disappointed.
But it wasn't appropriate to say anything openly.
After all, if it were someone of his own bloodline, he wouldn't mind being scolded or punished. But since they weren't of the Ji family bloodline, he couldn't punish them too severely.
“Yuwei, aren’t you very busy with work? For something like attending Niannian’s parent-teacher conference in Beijing, your older brother and I can handle it. There’s no need to make a big fuss.”
Ji Yuwei didn't catch the politeness in Grandpa Ji's words, and was only concerned with feeling aggrieved: "Then he didn't tell me that Sixth Brother was coming back, and I haven't seen Sixth Brother for a long time."
Grandpa Ji said, "Your sixth brother didn't tell me or your eldest brother about his return. Only Niannian knows. We only found out yesterday."
“Alright then, Grandpa, please take care of yourself,” Ji Yuwei said. “When you return to Jiangcheng, I’ll come home to see you.”
Grandpa Ji agreed.
Ji Yuwei was still happy to make the phone call and hear Grandpa Ji patiently explain things to her.
After all, although the eldest brother is now in charge of the Ji family, the old master Ji still has the final say. Judging from this, at least the old master Ji still treats her like his own granddaughter.
Ji Yuwei felt a little better and was about to hang up the phone when she heard a conversation coming from the other end.
…
Grandpa Ji actually hung up.
He was just old and his eyesight was poor. He didn't notice when the light was off-target, and thought he was already dead.
"Grandpa, when should we tell Yuwei that she was actually adopted by our Ji family?"
Ji Yanli stood to the side, leaning against the sofa, his tone serious.
"What happened to her father and mother back then was not the fault of our Ji family."
“We don’t mind that her mother committed arson and murder, and we adopted her and took good care of her from a young age. We have already fulfilled our responsibilities.”
“Now that she is in her twenties and has her own career, I think it’s time to tell her the truth that she is not the biological daughter of the Ji family.”
“Isn’t this too cruel?” Old Master Ji sighed. “This child has always thought that he is a member of the Ji family.”
"That's why she showed photos in the live stream, saying that she was Yu Bai's biological sister and that Niannian was just an outsider, a sister who didn't share the same parents as us."
Ji Yanli's expression turned sour when the matter was brought up.
His assistant showed him the live stream when it aired, but he has kept quiet until now.
"Yuwei didn't say it out loud, but she actually felt that Niannian was inferior to her, and I didn't want Niannian to suffer such injustice."
"Besides, this isn't something we're going to make public. We're just letting Yuwei know in her heart so she won't do anything like this again."
Ji Yanli was essentially a businessman who didn't care much about personal relationships when he did things.
Even if this hurts Ji Yuwei's feelings, Niannian is their own sister, and he hopes that Ji Yuwei can recognize her place.
If she treats Niannian well, the Ji family will treat her well in return.
Ji Yanli was unaware that on the very first day Ji Yuwei returned to Jiangcheng, she had overheard Jiang Nian and Ji Linyuan's conversation in the study and learned about her background.
She said those things on purpose.
…
Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Ji Yuwei gripped her phone, her whole body trembling.
So this is how the Ji family schemed against her in private. They didn't treat her as family at all; all they cared about was Jiang Nian.
Even Grandpa Ji pretended to treat her like a granddaughter on the phone, but he didn't care about her at all.
They even claimed that what happened back then wasn't the Ji family's fault.
What a hypocritical family.
If it weren't for saving the Ji family, would her father have died? Would her mother have suffered a mental breakdown, set fire to the building, and jumped off? Would she have become an orphan?
It's all the Ji family's fault! They already owed her something!
