I calmly said, "That jade bracelet is now worth 300 million, and the remaining shares under my mother's name are far less than that value."
"Three hundred million?!" Jiang Haiyang was shocked. Then I heard someone speaking over there. After listening carefully, I realized it sounded like Gu Yanqing.
I suddenly realized that Gu Yanqing must have used his connections to get him out of the detention center ahead of schedule.
Then the two of them conspired together, and in order to please Jiang Yi, they discussed coming back to me to ask for the jade bracelet again.
Gu Yanqing is utterly rotten.
Sure enough, after Jiang Haiyang shushed softly, he spoke again with increasing surprise, "When did you meet Su Shenglin?"
I asked, puzzled, "Wasn't this something you arranged? Why was Su Shenglin there on the wedding day?"
To be honest, I still don't understand this matter.
Last time I treated Su Shenglin to dinner, we talked so much that I forgot to ask about this.
Jiang Haiyang was also puzzled: "How would I know why he came? He had the Ye family's invitation that day."
I pressed further, "Which Ye family?"
"Which Ye family could it be? Ye Yuntang."
I was even more puzzled. Ye Yuntang was the eldest son of the Ye family and also the current CEO of Ye's Media.
The Gu family and the Ye family had business dealings, so Gu Yanqing also sent an invitation to the Ye family for the wedding.
But why did the Ye family's invitation end up in Su Shenglin's hands?
Is he very familiar with Ye Yuntang?
Ye Yuntang happened to have something to do that day, so he asked him to help present a gift.
My wildly imaginative thoughts made me laugh.
How is that possible?
The prestigious Ye family could easily send their secretary to present a gift if they didn't want to come. Those who wanted to stay could stay for a meal, while those who didn't could leave after presenting their gift. How could they possibly trouble the Su family, who are even more powerful than the Ye family, to attend the ceremony in their place?
I couldn't understand it at all, but I gradually realized that the Su family's approach to me seemed to be a carefully planned scheme.
From Su Shenglin's appearance at the wedding, to Mrs. Su inviting me to her home to have my clothes taken and tailored, to Su Shenglin spending 300 million to buy me a jade bracelet—
These things were all done intentionally, not simply out of "goodness to the Su family".
But why did they treat me like this?
As an unloved and fallen heiress, abandoned by my new husband and reduced to a divorced woman, even if I have some looks and a skill to rely on—I shouldn't be able to catch the eye of the Su family and make them value me so much, right?
I was caught in a series of doubts, and the more I thought about it, the more something seemed off.
Jiang Haiyang was still cursing and swearing, but I didn't hear a word he said until he roared again: "Jiang Wan! Did you hear me? If you think your mother's shares are too few, I can give you 10% of mine! I'm telling you, don't push your luck. With these shares, you'll be the company's second-largest shareholder, second only to me."
Hearing this, the confusion I had just felt was instantly resolved!
He really was trying to drag me down with him.
Otherwise, why would they be so kind as to give me extra shares, allowing me to firmly hold the position of the company's second-largest shareholder?
He was indeed cunning; he wanted to take revenge on me this way.
I knew exactly what was going on, but I pretended not to notice: "You really want to?"
"What can I do if I can't bear to part with her? Jiang Yi's condition has worsened, and the doctor said she only has a few days left. This is her only wish, and as her father, I can't let her leave with regrets." Jiang Haiyang's tone was indignant, but his words were full of love for Jiang Yi.
Despite being his daughters, they received vastly different treatment.
But what surprised me even more was how quickly Jiang Yi's condition deteriorated.
When Gu Yanqing was first diagnosed, didn't he say that there was still a year and a half left?
How could it stop working after just over a month?
I was shocked, but I felt little grief or pity.
Those who reap what they sow will not live.
If she hadn't been so reckless and courted death, she wouldn't have exhausted her lifespan so quickly.
"Jiang Wan, are you going to agree or not? No matter what, she's your own sister. Don't be so heartless!" Jiang Haiyang said urgently, afraid that I would refuse.
But his tone wasn't one of pleading; it was clearly an order.
"Alright, considering she doesn't have much time left, I'll consider it an act of charity." I had a plan in mind, so I pretended to be reluctant and agreed.
"Then come to the hospital tomorrow and bring the jade bracelet."
"Don't rush, let's sign the equity transfer agreement first."
"You really are..." Jiang Haiyang gritted his teeth again, "even more cunning than your mother!"
"Ha, if you're not shrewd when dealing with jackals and tigers, you'll have been devoured to the bone long ago."
Actually, I knew in my heart that Jiang Haiyang couldn't wait to transfer those shares to me, but he also knew that I was very vigilant and was afraid that I would suspect him, so he put on this show.
Now, we're all acting, and it's a matter of who has the best acting skills to fool the other and become the winner.
After ending the call with Jiang Haiyang, I sat there in a daze, still pondering the Su family's scheme to get close to me.
I even thought of the social news reports online.
It's about top foreign billionaires using various means to reserve organs...
Thinking about this, I suddenly remembered that I have the rare Rh-negative blood type!
A sudden realization dawned on me!
