Chapter 128 Stupid people should stop being so self-righteous.
Hearing what Grandpa Qi said, Jiang Yangxu was very surprised. "Mr. Qi said that Chairman Jay Chou is also a VIP guest tonight?! Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Old Master Qi was displeased by the questioning. "My grandson Qi Huan gave me this list personally. Do you think he would lie about it?"
"Mr. Qi, that's not what I meant..." Jiang Yangxu realized that he had offended the old man of the Qi family by being too uneasy and quickly apologized, but he still couldn't help but ask Qi Huan, "So, Mr. Zhou was invited by you, Young Master Qi?"
Qi Huan knew what Jiang Yangxu was worried about, and he smiled leisurely: "It wasn't me. Xiao Li'er gave me the list of people invited to Jay Chou."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yangxu's expression changed, and he almost lost his footing.
Jiang Xing immediately supported his father from behind. He had never seen his father-in-law so agitated in his entire life.
Jiang Yangxu pushed his son Jiang Xing away, trying to calm himself down, but met Jiang Youli's mocking gaze—a gaze full of sarcasm.
In other words, Jiang Youli not only knows the only son of the Zhou family, but also has a say in the affairs of the Zhou family's true leader, Chairman Zhou!
No, without seeing Jay Chou in person, he didn't believe that Jiang Youli, that little brat, could really get Jay Chou to attend her engagement party!
It was just a tactic she used to scare herself! After all, that little brat is incredibly cunning!
Jiang Youli looked at Jiang Yangxu's struggling appearance and couldn't help but find it a little funny. "Why does Second Uncle look so pale? Chairman Zhou is coming to my engagement party tonight. Second Uncle will be able to see Chairman Zhou without going through all sorts of trouble. He should be happy."
Hearing Jiang Youli's mocking question, which she already knew the answer to, Jiang Yangxu's face showed anger, but he couldn't get angry in front of so many people from the Qi family.
"If Jay Chou really comes to your engagement party, we will of course thank you, cousin. But let's make sure he really will be there tonight first. I'm afraid your influence isn't as great as you think."
It was Jiang Xing who spoke up. He believed that Jiang Youli wouldn't be able to be smug for long tonight. Even if she didn't die, she would definitely be badly hurt!
Jiang Youli said in a disdainful tone, "I understand. You guys are just stubborn and won't give up until you're completely defeated. It's okay. When Mr. Zhou comes, I'll personally introduce you to him and let him know about your glorious deeds."
At this moment, Jiang Yonghe said softly, "Sister Youli, today is your engagement banquet with Brother Qi Huan. Why do you have to speak so sarcastically and hurt the harmony of the family? Fortunately, we are now considered family with the Qi family. It's okay to say a few words to vent here, but you should say less in front of the guests later. After all, family scandals should not be aired in public."
Jiang Youli sneered, "Heh, it's already a family scandal that you, an adopted daughter who was tricked by my mother into switching places with me, can show up here as a member of the Jiang family. What family scandals do we have to be ashamed of?"
Qi An'an couldn't help but chuckle. She never expected that after watching Jiang Youli teach Qi Xiuyuan a lesson, she could now see her angrily confront the scheming woman. It was truly gratifying.
Jiang Youli glanced at Qi An'an again. As expected of the daughter of Qi Xiuhua, the third brother of the neutral faction, so far it seems that only Qi An'an has no hostility towards her and Qi Huan.
As long as Qi An'an doesn't cause trouble at tonight's engagement banquet, she won't make things difficult for her.
Jiang Yonghe: "..."
Jiang Xing grabbed Jiang Yonghe's wrist and said firmly, "To us, Xiaohe is family, not a family scandal!"
Jiang Yonghe looked up at Jiang Xing, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Jiang Yangxu didn't want to get entangled with Jiang Youli any longer. He just wanted to call Jiang Li as soon as possible to ask what was going on. So he said, "Mr. Qi, let's go to the banquet first and see if there's anything we can do to help."
"Alright." After instructing the servants to lead the way, Old Master Qi glanced at his children and grandchildren in the hall. "Alright, if you have nothing else to do, then go with the Jiang family to the banquet center to greet the VIPs."
“Okay, Grandpa!” Qi An’an was the first to stand up and ran to Jiang Youli with a warm smile. “Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help you with?”
She made up her mind; she was going to follow Jiang Youli from now on!
In response to Qi An'an's overtures, Jiang Youli smiled and said in a friendly manner, "As long as you don't cause trouble like Qi Xiuyuan, that will be the biggest help you can give me."
Qi An'an patted her chest and assured her, "Then don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely not cause you and Huan-ge any trouble!"
Qi Xiuhua did not object to her daughter's choice. She believed that after educating her daughter for so long, her daughter had her own judgment.
Qi Feixue and Qi Shaoxiong felt contempt for Qi An'an's attempt to curry favor with Jiang Youli. As a young lady of the Qi family, it was a disgrace to the Qi family to flatter a young lady of the Jiang family who was far inferior to the Qi family!
The third brother, Qi Tianhuai, said, "Shaoxiong, Feixue, let's go. As your grandfather said, let's go to the banquet center first and see if there's anything we can do to help."
“Okay, Dad.” Qi Shaoxiong and Qi Feixue stood up as well.
When he walked up to the Qi brothers, Qi Xiuyuan and Qi Feifan, Qi Shaoxiong sneered, "Didn't I tell you that the outcome is still uncertain?"
Qi Feixue also whispered mockingly, "Qi Xiuyuan, it's really funny to see you shoot yourself in the foot. If you're stupid, then stop trying to be clever."
Qi Feifan's face was grim.
Qi Xiuyuan glanced guiltily at his older brother, Qi Feifan.
When Qi Shaoxiong walked to Qi Huan's side, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, then lowered his head and looked at Qi Huan, who was sitting in a wheelchair.
At this moment, Qi Huan sat there quietly, her face expressionless.
Qi Shaoxiong raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a slightly sarcastic smile, and said, "Brother Huan, although your marriage with Jiang Yonghe didn't work out, this real daughter of the Jiang family seems to be no less beautiful than Jiang Yonghe. Brother Huan is really lucky. I wish you and your cousin-in-law a life of mutual respect, eternal love, and lifelong companionship."
He emphasized the last four words, "inseparable in life and death."
Clearly, there was a hidden meaning in his words.
The meaning couldn't be clearer: if he wanted to take action against Qi Huan in the future, he would inevitably deal with Jiang Youli as well.
And even if they die, he will definitely find a way to make them die together!
Faced with Qi Shaoxiong's blunt and threatening words, Qi Huan's already deep, dark eyes instantly turned icy cold.
However, he simply replied, "I accept this blessing."
These few simple words conveyed an invisible pressure emanating from him.
What Qi Shaoxiong hated most was Qi Huan's calm and collected demeanor, as if nothing could faze him and no danger could defeat him!
But that's exactly the truth!
Ever since Qi Huan took over a small branch company from the old man and started to grow it into a powerful force, becoming a thorn in the side of many people, she has been able to overcome any crisis, no matter what methods she faces!
Aside from this incident, he was attacked and had both legs broken by kidnappers while trying to rescue his adopted sister Qi Yu, with whom he had no blood relation.
But was this really an accident?
No, Qi Shaoxiong knew that Qi Huan had definitely been betrayed by her closest family members!
Thinking about it this way, Qi Huan is now completely abandoned by everyone. Apart from the old man's appreciation, he has no relatives to rely on. He's truly a pitiful wretch! Dealing with him now would be as easy as turning your hand!
