Chapter 324: Pushing the Limits
"Okay, stop crying. Chairman Ji and I will meet to discuss this matter. If things don't work out, your grandfather will step in..."
Father Nie stroked her hair and comforted her, and the noise also startled Nie Yao and Yu Wanqing who were originally chatting.
"What happened? Why is Nie Jinxi crying so sadly?" Yu Wanqing couldn't help but ask curiously.
"I don't know, but I guess it must be related to Ji Minghuan..." Nie Yao shrugged and whispered, "I thought I heard Ji Minghuan's voice when my father called just now!"
"Hmph, Nie Jinxi must be urging her uncle to marry Ji Minghuan. She really can't wait even a moment!"
Yu Wanqing scoffed. Looking at Nie Jinxi, still crying in her father's arms not far away, she couldn't help but complain indignantly, "Nie Jinxi is just a fake daughter, yet she really thinks she's my uncle's biological daughter... My uncle is such a fool! Why is he so nice to her?"
Nie Yao also took a look at the interaction between her father and Nie Jinxi. A smile of understanding appeared on the corner of her lips. She said in a light tone, "Even if they are not her biological children, the love of raising them is still there!"
It was precisely because of this that my father refused to believe that Nie Jinxi was the real murderer who drugged and murdered Lin Anqi and himself!
After all, she and Father Nie are blood relatives, but she did not grow up with Father Nie. Nie Jinxi has been raised in the Nie family, and her relationship with her father and grandfather must be much deeper than hers!
"I think Nie Jinxi is just pushing things too far!" Yu Wanqing frowned, curling her lips in displeasure, "Even though she knows that my uncle is your father, she still throws herself into his arms and cries, acting pitiful. I think she's clearly deliberately provoking you!"
Nie Yao smiled indifferently, picked up the teacup and took a sip. Nie's father had already comforted Nie Jinxi and took Nie Jinxi back to the living room to sit down.
Nie Jinxi's eyes were still a little red and swollen, but she stopped crying. She sat down next to Nie's father, right opposite Nie Yao and Yu Wanqing.
Father Nie poured a cup of tea and handed it to Nie Jinxi, whispering a word of comfort. Nie Jinxi took the teacup and sipped it. Yu Wanqing couldn't stand Nie Jinxi's acting, so she raised an eyebrow and said, "Nie Jinxi, today is such a beautiful day, why are you crying?"
"I..." Nie Jinxi did not answer.
Seeing this, Yu Wanqing continued to ask, "Are you crying because you're jealous of Nie Yao and Master Li Jiu together, or are you crying because of Ji Minghuan? I see. Could it be that Ji Minghuan rejected you?"
This sentence hit the nail on the head for Nie Jinxi. Her eyes turned red and she was about to cry again.
"Okay, Wanqing, you are her cousin, so don't rub salt into her wounds..." Father Nie also spoke slowly at this time, and whispered persuasion to Wanqing.
Yu Wanqing curled her lips, not feeling that Ji Minghuan's rejection of Nie Jinxi had completely calmed her down. She continued with a sneer, "Uncle, I'm telling the truth! My cousin Jinxi has been looking forward to being with Ji Minghuan since she was a child. It's a pity that Ji Minghuan, that scumbag, took advantage of us and now he's denying his promise..."
She paused, then smiled and advised Nie Jinxi, "Jinxi, I'm saying this for your own good. What's the point of clinging to a scumbag? You're still a daughter of the Nie family, after all. Why are you so obsessed with Ji Minghuan? Is it because of his status as the president's son?"
