Chapter 337: Taking Sides
Jiang Qianhui frowned, but in an instant she understood.
If Xie Qingyi knew, Zhan Yanxun would definitely know too. Things wouldn't be so calm then, so Xie Qingyi said this on purpose to annoy the Gu family.
After all, killing someone is like killing them out of their spirit. She was trying to pierce the heart of the Gu family.
It's ridiculous. She didn't know that the Gu family already knew about this, and she was still smug about it.
Li Wanyin raised an eyebrow: "Your Zhan family will never be fortunate enough to have this child. Stop dreaming. Hurry up and leave, it won't look good if someone kicks you out."
Xie Qingyi said smugly, "Don't pretend to be calm here. It's one thing for your son to marry a divorced woman, but she's pregnant too. Your Gu family is really willing to be cuckolds."
Enraged, Yang Huirong stepped forward and grabbed Xie Qingyi by the neck.
"You vicious woman! It was one thing for you to bully my daughter before, but now you're jealous and can't stand to see her doing well, so you're trying to ruin her reputation like this? I'll strangle you."
Xie Qingyi retaliated by grabbing Yang Huirong's hair, and the two immediately started fighting.
Seeing this, Gu Xunjing wanted to step forward to break up the fight. Li Wanyin quickly stepped forward.
"Stop fighting, stop fighting."
Li Wanyin appeared to be trying to mediate the fight, but in reality, she was taking sides and unexpectedly slapped Xie Qingyi twice more.
They were finally separated after being persuaded by hotel staff.
With her face bruised and swollen, Xie Qingyi angrily said to Li Wanyin, "I was helping your son get rid of Jiang Qianhui, and you didn't appreciate my kindness and even dared to attack me."
"Look at what you're saying! I never laid a hand on you. I was just trying to break up your fight."
Xie Qingyi pointed at Li Wanyin and said, "Fine, you insist on taking this slut back. I'll wait and see how you make a fool of yourself."
Upon hearing this, Li Wanyin was so angry that her head was buzzing. She said to Gu Xuanwu, "Old Gu, I really can't take it anymore."
Gu Xuanwu said, "Why endure it if you can avoid going down? Now that you've said what you need to say, roll up your sleeves."
Xie Qingyi realized that this person was planning to attack her again.
"What do you want to do?"
"Who called you a slut, a slut? Today I'll show you what a slut is."
After Li Wanyin finished speaking, she immediately took off her high heels. Xie Qingyi, seeing that something was wrong, quickly slipped away.
"Li Wanyin, you'll remember this."
"You can run fast."
Li Wanyin comforted Jiang Qianhui, saying, "Suihui, you don't need to get angry over this kind of person."
Jiang Qianhui smiled calmly and said, "It's nothing, I don't care about her at all. It's just that Aunt Li got upset because of her."
Li Wanyin: "Protecting you is our responsibility."
……
After returning to the Jiang family.
Yang Huirong was restless. She asked anxiously, "Was what Xie Qingyi said just now true? Is the child in your belly Gu Xunjing's or Zhan Yanxun's?"
"Mom, Xie Qingyi said that on purpose to disgust you and the Gu family. If you mind this, then you'll fall for her trick."
Yang Huirong was relieved after hearing this.
"Look how much the Gu family values you. Their dowry of three gold pieces is eye-opening, and now they've even given you a cruise ship. You're not even married into the family yet, and they're already trying to empty the Gu family's pockets for you. They genuinely care about you. But what if it's really like Xie Qingyi said, that the child in your belly is Zhan Yanxun's? How will the Gu family feel then?"
Jiang Qianhui remained silent, her feelings somewhat complicated.
Yang Huirong suddenly grabbed Jiang Qianhui's hand tightly, so tightly that her nails dug into Jiang Qianhui's flesh.
Her eyes were grave as she said, "If the child in your belly is Zhan Yanxun's, then abort it. You cannot give birth to a child of the Zhan family, do you hear me?"
At this moment, Jiang Zhengguo stopped Yang Huirong, saying, "Are you crazy? Suisui is about to give birth. If you make her abort now, are you trying to kill her?"
"But what if she really gives birth to Zhan Yanxun's child? Now, a paternity test can immediately tell who the father is. If the child in her belly is indeed Zhan Yanxun's, how can the Gu family bear it? How can Gu Xunjing bear it?"
"Mom, don't get upset. No one will feel embarrassed. Don't fall for Xie Qingyi's tricks."
At this moment, Jiang Zhengguo also pulled Yang Huirong aside and said, "Xie Qingyi is obviously trying to make things difficult for us. Don't fall for her tricks. Right now, the Zhan family isn't the ones suffering the most. Why should you suffer with them?"
After being persuaded by Jiang Zhengguo, Yang Huirong's emotions stabilized somewhat.
But he kept staring intently at Jiang Qianhui's stomach, his eyes seeming to be filled with venom.
If the child is Zhan Yanxun's, then we can't keep him!
Jiang Qianhui thought her mother had calmed down, but she didn't expect that her mother was brewing a plan in her heart.
……
The Zhan family, in the CEO's office.
Qiao Weiwei frowned and said with feigned concern, "President Zhan, the start of construction is indefinitely postponed, which seriously affects our cooperation with the Hawke Casper family. What will happen to the Zhan family if they get angry and withdraw their investment?"
Zhan Yanxun didn't answer, but continued operating the computer. Qiao Weiwei had no idea what he was doing. Zhan Yanxun wouldn't let her touch these things at all.
Zhan Yanxun said coldly, "These things are none of your concern."
Qiao Wei forced a smile and said, "I know that President Zhan will definitely find a way. It's just that I think President Jiang is too heartless. She knew that piece of land was very important to the Zhan family, but she deliberately raised the price. Even though there was an ancient tomb underground, she still provoked you to bid a high price. She was deliberately trying to frame the Zhan family."
Qiao Weiwei tried to stir up Zhan Yanxun's resentment towards Jiang Qianhui, but Zhan Yanxun stopped pointing and looked up at Qiao Weiwei.
"If I fall into the trap, it's my mistake. It has nothing to do with her!"
Qiao Weiwei was stunned, not expecting Zhan Yanxun to actually protect Jiang Qianhui.
He clearly believed that the Zhan Group should be the most important thing to him, but now that Jiang Qianhui had taken action against the Zhan Group, he not only didn't blame her, but also felt it was his responsibility.
Qiao Weiwei harbored resentment, but pretended to be obedient and said, "President Zhan, I think President Jiang did this because she misunderstood us. Why don't I go and explain things to her, clear up her resentment towards you, and prevent her from continuing to frame our Zhan Group?"
"You don't need to go, just focus on doing your job well."
Qiao Weiwei was furious; the situation was clearly so serious.
The project in cooperation with the Hawke & Castrol family cannot proceed, and two billion in funds are almost frozen.
The Zhan Group is in such a difficult situation, yet he remains so calm and doesn't even harbor any resentment towards Jiang Qianhui.
How is this possible?
Just then, there was a commotion at the door. Assistant Wu Ye said, "Director Yan, the president is currently handling official business. Please wait here for a moment."
"Move aside, don't block the way."
The door was pushed open.
