Jiang Xuanxuan, who was posing for a photo, was pulled in by Jiang Jucai and called a "fool," which immediately angered her.
"Idiot? You dare call me an idiot? I'm going to tell my mom!" Jiang Xuanxuan stomped her foot and headed towards the study.
"Stop!" Although Jiang Jucai had no status at home, he still had some authority after being a boss for so many years.
At the company, Jiang Xuanxuan would never dare to act like a tyrant as she does at home. Now she could feel that Jiang Jucai's "Stop!" was an order from a superior.
Reflexively, she stopped and reluctantly turned around, only to see Jiang Jucai's serious and angry expression.
“If you really want the Jiang family to fall, then go outside and sell your body! Go ahead and do it!” Jiang Jucai pointed to the tightly closed door.
"The Jiang family will fall? It can't be that serious, can it?" Jiang Xuanxuan didn't believe it.
"You can try it if you don't believe me," Jiang Jucai said seriously. "Don't regret it later if you don't have a house, a car, or designer goods!"
"What...what exactly happened?" Jiang Xuanxuan realized that Jiang Jucai wasn't bluffing her, and her intelligence began to return.
“The anti-corruption campaign is investigating the accounts, especially those people associated with the Pang family’s milk powder factory. They are all being investigated.” Jiang Jucai saw that Jiang Xuanxuan had stopped acting up and then sat down on the sofa.
"An audit? Wasn't it audited a few years ago? Nothing serious happened, right?" Jiang Xuanxuan said dismissively.
“Last time it was just a tax audit, this time it’s different.” Jiang Jucai looked exhausted. “This time it’s because of milk powder, which involves a lot of babies. Do you know what babies are? This group is the most likely to arouse public outrage!”
"Didn't you say the milk powder was fine?" Jiang Xuanxuan asked, confused.
"They say everything's fine, but who knows what really happened?" Jiang Jucai shook his head. "The Pang family says everything's fine, but how would I know if they're telling the truth?"
"Then why are you still doing business with them? Wouldn't it be better to cut ties sooner rather than later?"
"Broken off? You're thinking too simply!" Jiang Jucai looked at Jiang Xuanxuan with a hint of disappointment and frustration. "Do you know how much kickback we took from them?"
"We can return it! Besides, they've taken a lot of benefits from us!"
"You're brainless! Giving kickbacks or taking them will both be investigated. One is bribery, the other is accepting bribes; they don't cancel each other out, they're combined!"
"Then you still take kickbacks?"
"I won't accept it? If I don't accept it, how can I afford your designer bags and your extravagant spending?"
"Then why can't you find someone cleaner to do business with?" Jiang Xuanxuan meant that it was all Jiang Jucai's fault.
"It's all your fault!" Jiang Jucai glared at Jiang Xuanxuan. "Do you remember that car accident? If the Pang family hadn't had that leverage over you, do you think I would have given them a friendly look?"
"Those are all ancient stories from long ago?"
"If we discuss it again, that's still a problem!"
Knowing she was in the wrong, Jiang Xuanxuan lost her earlier righteous indignation, but she was still unwilling to give up: "Nothing happened last time, so you can avoid it this time too, right?"
“Last time it was low-key, without all this annoying online hype.” Jiang Jucai shook his head. “The hype will pass in a week or two.”
This time, however, the online buzz remained unabated. Jiang Jucai had already stayed home to avoid the media attention, but Jiang Xuanxuan…
Jiang Xuanxuan not only trended on social media, pushing the Jiang family into the eye of the storm, but she also posed in front of gossip paparazzi, showing no shame or remorse whatsoever.
If Jiang Xuanxuan knew how to keep a low profile and knew when to perform, she might have been able to gain some sympathy and make people think that she was a victim, that she was young and naive, and that she had been deceived by bad people.
But with that alluring pose and a big smile on her face, isn't she just giving people a chance to make their own interpretations based on the picture?
Now that photos and videos have been taken and recorded, it's too late to say anything! Let's think about how to make amends.
Just as the father and daughter were feeling frustrated, Wang Xiuzhen, who hadn't seen Jiang Jucai return to his study for a long time and was tired of crying alone, finally came out to find an audience again.
"You old geezer! Explain yourself!" Wang Xiuzhen started yelling again as soon as she saw Jiang Jucai.
This time, however, Jiang Xuanxuan didn't help her either. Instead, she yelled at Wang Xiuzhen in frustration, "Mom! Don't add fuel to the fire! Go back to your room, we're talking about work!"
After being rebuked by her beloved daughter, Wang Xiuzhen suddenly lost her confidence, cursed, and went back to her room, slamming the door shut.
Sure enough, the next day, the media released videos and photos of Jiang Xuanxuan, saying that she was promiscuous and implying that her private life was indeed chaotic.
Having already devised a plan, the father and daughter immediately issued a public statement online, saying that Jiang Xuanxuan did not know why the reporters were knocking on the door and that she had not yet seen the news.
Then he explained that he was young and ignorant back then and was ambushed... In short, he claimed to be the victim and said: Who hasn't done some stupid things that they regret when they were young?
The following section extensively showcases her positive image, her interpersonal relationships, and her strengths.
But almost all of this was within Yang Yajing's expectations.
She had arranged with the private investigator a few days ago that whichever road Jiang Xuanxuan took a step down, they would block that road with a wall and make her run into it.
The day after Jiang Xuanxuan issued her statement, another media outlet published a scandal, this time involving another man.
The scandal had just been hyped up when, the very next day, a different media outlet and a different man appeared.
At first, the photos were from several years ago, and Jiang Xuanxuan could say that she was young and didn't know any better. But the later photos were more recent.
