Chapter 32 Ruining her reputation
Guan Baocheng's words directly pointed out the relationship between him and Jiang Xuxu.
His voice was not loud, but the guests around him heard it clearly, and when they looked at Guan Baocheng, their eyes instantly became more polite and eager.
The adoptive parents of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, aren't they the benefactors of the Jiang family?
The benefactors of the Jiang family, they must also be befriended.
Even if Guan Baocheng didn't look around, he could feel the friendly gazes around him, and he knew in his heart that his goal had been achieved.
However, Jiang Yucheng, who was standing aside, suddenly had a gloomy face when he heard his words.
When he noticed the people from the Guan family just now, he thought about asking the security guards to quietly ask them to leave, but before he could make arrangements, this person actually came up directly.
They were all experienced businessmen, so they knew the other party's intentions and plans at first sight.
Mr. Jiang's expression remained unchanged, and he still had a smile on his face. At first glance, he seemed very friendly and easy to talk to.
"So you are Xuxu's adoptive parents. Xuxu has been indebted to you for taking care of him these years."
"No, Mr. Jiang is really too polite. If we had known that Xuxu was Jiang's child, we would have sent him back a long time ago."
"Oh?" Mr. Jiang raised his eyes with a good temper, and suddenly turned to Jiang Yucheng on the side,
"The Guan family raised Xuxu, so they are our distinguished guests. Boss, take him upstairs and treat him well. Don't be impolite."
Jiang Yucheng had wanted to get the Guan family out for a long time, and he stepped forward immediately after hearing this. Guan Baocheng didn't understand what Mr. Jiang meant.
If he followed them upstairs, how could he ask for favors from the Jiang family as a guest?
He said hurriedly, "Speaking of which, Guan's company just confirmed the cooperation with Jianghai Group a few days ago. I know that Mr. Jiang must want to help us for Xuxu's sake. I came here today to express my gratitude. If the subordinates do anything wrong during the cooperation between the two companies, please forgive me from Jianghai Group." Guan Baocheng naturally knew that he
couldn't really lose face for the Jiang family in such an occasion, so he only said that the two companies confirmed the cooperation, but didn't say that the Jiang family unilaterally canceled the cooperation. At the same time, he gave the Jiang family an excuse to cancel the cooperation before. The implication was that the
reason why Mr. Jiang canceled the previous cooperation was because the subordinates did not do well. Now that it's said, let's continue the cooperation.
Jiang Yucheng knew what Guan Baocheng meant. He just wanted to tie the Guan family and the Jiang family together completely by relying on an occasion like today.
The guests around were watching. Even if Jianghai Group stopped cooperating with Guan Group in the end, there would always be groups that wanted to befriend Jiang Family and extended olive branches to Guan Group.
Jiang Yucheng would not get used to such bad habits.
He said in a deep voice, "Mr. Guan, you are joking. The cooperation between Jianghai Group and Guan Group has been cancelled long ago. As for why, I think Mrs. Guan and your daughter know the inside story."
Guan Baocheng did not expect Jiang Yucheng to be so rude. When he heard him mention Bai Shuqin and Guan Ruirui, he scolded his wife and daughter in his heart, but he still pretended to be terrified and surprised on his face, and said earnestly,
"Mr. Jiang, there must be some misunderstanding here. I really hope to cooperate with Jianghai Group."
As he said that, he looked at Jiang Xuxu who had been silent.
"Xu Xu, you should also say something for your father."
Seeing that he was still trying to pull Xu Xu, Jiang Yucheng's face darkened and he stood in front of Xu Xu, "Mr. Guan, Xu Xu is my daughter."
Bai Shuqin, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but speak up, "Xu Xu, it's not easy for our family to raise you, you should say something."
These two sentences were completely putting Jiang Xuxu on the spot.
After all, this was the Guan family who raised her. It is said that the grace of raising is greater than the grace of giving birth. If Jiang Xuxu dared to show a little indifference to the Guan family in such an occasion, her reputation in the circle would be ruined in the future.
After all, who would like someone who abandons his adoptive parents after recognizing them as his biological father?
Guan Ruirui had been waiting for this moment, but she didn't expect her father to react even faster than her. He immediately came forward and pleaded,
"Sister, mom and dad have always treated you as their own daughter. You can't just ignore us now that you have a biological father."
Seeing that all the guests in the hall turned their eyes to this, Bai Shuqin choked up and said, "I know you have recognized your biological family, but Baocheng, Ruirui and I are also your family. I believe that I have never let you suffer any grievances since you were a child. Why have you become like this now?"
The three members of the Guan family talked one after another, and the guests who were originally listening around them began to discuss in a low voice. The old foxes kept silent tacitly, but some of the younger generations with a stronger sense of justice no longer had the good impression of Jiang Xuxu that they had at first sight, and even couldn't help but condemn her out loud.
"Even if you are recognized as a member of the Jiang family, the Guan family raised you
. Don't you think it's wrong for Miss Jiang to treat her adoptive parents like this?" "I think Mr. Guan's family is a respectable family. Miss Jiang shouldn't avoid them like this."
Jiang Yucheng looked unhappy. Just as he was about to refute, his arm was suddenly pulled.
But Jiang Xuxu pulled him back and walked out. There was not much emotion on his delicate and clear face. He just glanced at the few people he had just reprimanded, and then his almond eyes turned to the three members of the Guan family.
Suddenly, he began to take off the sleeve of his right hand without saying a word.
Everyone was puzzled. Jiang Xuxu took off his sleeves and raised his pale and weak arm. He saw an obvious scar on his delicate arm.
Jiang Xuxu looked at Bai Shuqin and said coldly,
"When I was seven years old, Guan Ruirui accidentally fell into the water. When Mrs. Guan rushed over, she saw me standing on the shore safe and sound, so she pushed me into the water. Because your daughter suffered, I should suffer as well. This scar was left by the rocks on the shore when you pushed me into the water. You should remember this."
Hearing this, the Jiang family almost instantly turned their eyes to Bai Shuqin. The guests in the hall also looked incredible, and didn't even understand this logic.
Bai Shuqin's eyes flickered slightly, but she tried to remain calm, "You fell down accidentally, why do you say I pushed you?"
Jiang Xuxu was not panicked, and continued, "When she was ten years old, Guan Ruirui was injured and hospitalized and needed a blood transfusion. The hospital clearly had enough blood in stock, but you pulled the nurse to let her draw my blood for Guan Ruirui. You said that because we are sisters, she can heal faster with my blood."
Guests:???
What kind of weird logic is this?
Even elementary school students know that blood transfusions only need to be of the same blood type.
Everyone thinks that Mrs. Guan may have some common sense cognitive impairment.
Jiang Yucheng was already very angry after hearing this. After all, these things would not be known even if they were investigated.
And Jiang Xuxu's next sentence made everyone stunned on the spot.
"When I was a child, I didn't understand why every time Guan Ruirui got into trouble, you would let me experience the same misfortune, or ask me to take care of her personally. Later I found out that it was because Guan Ruirui was born with a weak personality and brought disasters with her. You raised me just because you took a fancy to my fate and wanted to use my fate to protect Guan Ruirui from disasters."
