Guan Baocheng's one sentence directly pointed out the relationship between him and Jiang Xuxu.
His voice was not loud, but the guests around him could hear it clearly. 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 are the benefactors of the Jiang family.
As the benefactor of the Jiang family, we must also make friends with him.
Even if Guan Baocheng didn't look around, he could feel the friendly gazes from everyone around him and knew in his heart that his goal had been achieved.
However, Jiang Yucheng's face darkened instantly when he heard his words.
When he noticed the people from the Guan family just now, he was thinking about asking the security guard to quietly ask them to leave, but before he could make any arrangements, the man actually came up to him directly.
They have all been through the business world, so they know exactly what the other party is thinking and what they are planning after just one encounter.
Old Master Jiang's expression did not change and he still had a smile on his face. At first glance, one would think that he was very kind and easy to talk to.
"So you are Xuxu's adoptive parents. Xuxu has been well taken care of over the years thanks to you."
"No way, Mr. Jiang is too polite. If we had known that Xuxu was Jiang's child, we would have sent him back a long time ago."
"Oh?" Old Jiang raised his eyes in a good-natured manner, and suddenly turned to Jiang Yucheng beside him.
"The Guan family raised Xu Xu, so he is our honored guest. Boss, take him upstairs and entertain him properly. Don't be impolite."
Jiang Yucheng had long wanted to get the Guan family out, so he stepped forward upon hearing this. Guan Baocheng understood what Grandpa Jiang meant.
If he followed them upstairs, how could he use the guests as an excuse to ask for benefits from the Jiang family?
He said hurriedly, "Speaking of which, Guan Corporation had just confirmed 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 two companies are discussing cooperation, please forgive me if there is anything that the subordinates do not do well."
Guan Baocheng naturally knew that he couldn't really embarrass the Jiang family in such an occasion, so he only said that the two families had confirmed the cooperation, but did not say that the Jiang family had unilaterally cancelled the cooperation. At the same time, he gave the Jiang family an excuse for canceling the cooperation before, implying that
Mr. Jiang canceled the previous cooperation because his subordinates did not do a good job. Now that we have talked about it, let's continue our cooperation.
Jiang Yucheng knew very well what Guan Baocheng meant. He simply wanted to use today's occasion to completely tie the Guan family and the Jiang family together.
The guests around were all watching. Even if Jianghai Group stopped cooperating with Guan family in the end, there would always be groups that wanted to make friends with Jiang family and extend olive branches to Guan family.
Jiang Yucheng will not tolerate such a bad habit.
Then he said in a deep voice, "Boss Guan, you are joking. The cooperation between Jianghai Group and Guan Corporation has been cancelled a long time ago. As for why, I think Mrs. Guan and your daughter know the inside story."
Guan Baocheng didn't expect Jiang Yucheng to be so rude. When he heard him mention Bai Shuqin and Guan Ruirui, he cursed his wife and daughter in his heart, but he still pretended to be terrified and surprised on the surface, and said earnestly,
"Mr. Jiang, there must be some misunderstanding. I really sincerely hope to cooperate with Jianghai Group."
As he said this, he looked at Jiang Xuxu who had been silent beside him.
"Xu Xu, please say something for Dad."
Seeing that he was still going to involve Xuxu, Jiang Yucheng's face darkened and he stopped in front of Xuxu, "Boss Guan, Xuxu is my daughter."
Bai Shuqin, who was standing by, couldn't help but speak up when she saw this. "Xu Xu, it wasn't easy for our family to raise you. Why don't you say something?"
These two sentences were like roasting Jiang Xuxu on the fire.
After all, this is the Guan family that raised her. It is said that the grace of raising a child is greater than the grace of giving birth to him. If Jiang Xuxu dares to show any indifference towards the Guan family in such an occasion, her reputation in the circle will be ruined in the future.
After all, who would like a person who treats his adoptive parents like trash 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 with a pleading look on his face.
"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 side, 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 to each other, and the guests who were originally listening began to discuss in a low voice. The old foxes kept silent tacitly, but some of the younger generations with a sense of justice had lost their initial good impression of Jiang Xuxu, and even couldn't help but condemn him.
"Even if you are adopted by 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 wouldn't avoid them like this."
Jiang Yucheng's face looked grim. Just as he was about to open his mouth to refute, someone suddenly pulled his arm.
But it was Jiang Xuxu who pulled him back and walked out. There was not much emotion change on that delicate and clear face. She just glanced at the people she had just condemned, and then turned her almond-shaped eyes to the three members of the Guan family.
Suddenly, without saying a word, he began to take off the sleeve on his right hand.
Everyone was puzzled. After Jiang Xuxu took off her sleeves, she raised her fair and slender arms, only to see an obvious scar on her delicate and clean arm.
Jiang Xuxu looked at Bai Shuqin and said coldly,
