"Jing Yi, you've really wronged your father and me... Sigh, how could we possibly covet that little bit of yours? You're truly breaking our hearts..."
"Calm down too, honey. Jing Yi doesn't know what rumors he heard somewhere. Explain it to him properly, and he'll understand eventually..."
But Jing Yi refused to let it go just because he had the upper hand. "Did you think I didn't know account books can be falsified? Then do you dare let an asset appraiser come take a look? It won't take long anyway—two or three hours is completely bearable. I hate it most when people falsely accuse me! I refuse to get married in such a muddle without getting an answer... And at the very least, you have to admit that those things were mine to begin with!"
Jing Bo was so angry that his vision went dark, and he reflexively raised his right hand again.
Jing Yi was also about to seize the opportunity to throw himself down and throw another tantrum.
It was utter chaos.
In the end, Qin Zhengyu, who had watched the farce in silence the whole time, stepped forward and whispered a few words to Jing Bo. Jing Bo nodded as if enlightened, then hurried over to whisper a few words to Jing Yi. He immediately connected with Jing Yi through his terminal as well. It looked like he had paid for peace, though no one knew how much he had spent to make today's bride settle down...
In the end, no asset appraiser was called in, leaving most of the guests who had been waiting to watch the excitement wanting more.
So had Jing Yi seized the chance to extort his biological father, or had Jing Bo been harboring ill intentions and admitted defeat by paying compensation? Everyone who watched the scene had their own opinion.
After recording this segment, General Chen's final shot happened to freeze on Jing Yi and Qin Wenbo bowing toward one another, Jing Yi's slender waist seemingly small enough to grasp in one hand. Then he turned the screen toward his own face and gave Qin Meng, on the other end, a meaningful smile as planned before ending the call.
Qin Meng, on a distant planet: "..."
A Pushy Stranger~
Jing Yi went through the entire wedding ceremony with Qin Wenbo, who was holding a ceramic urn, without any further incidents. Qin Wenbo was completely different from his younger brother, Qin Wenfei. He was a man of few words with a cold face. No one knew whether he was dissatisfied with the task assigned to him, but he could not even be bothered to glance at Jing Yi. Whenever their gazes occasionally met, the contempt in his eyes was practically condensed into shards of ice.
After the wedding ended, the Jing Family swept away under Jing Bo's lead, while the Qin Family, led by Qin Zhengyu, saw the guests off. As for Jing Yi, who seemed to have been "abandoned by everyone," he changed clothes and got into General Chen's military hovercar. He should originally have ridden in the car behind them, where the attendants Qin Zhengyu had arranged for him were waiting. They were responsible for protecting the "young madam" and bringing him back after the genetic examination. But General Chen had arbitrarily ordered him into his own car in front, and Jing Yi and the Qin Family could only comply.
With a stiff smile, Madam Qin held Jing Yi's hand and reminded him, "When you get to the military district, don't cause trouble for General Chen. Don't worry either—it's just a routine examination. You'll be back in ten days at most. Now that you're part of our Qin Family, if you need anything, just tell Zhang Qiu. They're experienced and can handle most ordinary matters..."
Just don't show that petty, tactless face again like you did earlier. It's too humiliating!
Although marrying such an idiot to Qin Meng had been rather satisfying, who would have thought he would act so recklessly? Qin Meng had died and escaped it all, but they had been dragged into losing face with him. Hadn't her son Wenbo hurriedly left the moment the ceremony ended? He had truly suffered a great injustice...
Jing Yi nodded and agreed to everything, a faint smile that was not quite a smile on his face. It made Madam Qin terribly uneasy, as though he were plotting something again.
Honestly, beneath the bright sunlight, Jing Yi had changed into another crimson casual outfit. In terms of looks alone, he was dazzlingly gorgeous, so radiant that people hardly dared look directly at him. Madam Qin, who had taken quite good care of herself, was made to look like a dull middle-aged woman beside him! So it was no wonder most women disliked him. Who would like a man with the allure of a fox spirit? Standing beside him, he was the red flower and you were the green leaf every second! Madam Qin had now deeply realized this problem too. After staring at him for a while, she simply urged him to get in the car quickly.
General Chen also shook off Qin Zhengyu's pestering, got into the car, and signaled the driver to leave at once.
They sped away like the wind.
Speaking of which, General Chen had initially found Jing Yi extremely unpleasant to look at. But after what had just happened, his dislike of Jing Yi had decreased a little. If it had originally been -100, it had at least risen to -90 now.
The military hovercar was spacious, with four people inside—General Chen, a guard, the driver, and Jing Yi, who was obviously completely out of place among the other three.
Five cars followed behind them. Four belonged to General Chen's security detail, while the last carried the Qin Family's attendants.
General Chen "occupied" the seat across from Jing Yi without saying a word. He already held a high position and carried a powerful presence. With his deliberate release of pressure, the atmosphere throughout the cabin immediately grew heavy. Even the guard who had followed him for years could not relax, let alone Jing Yi, the former Taobao shop owner.
But Jing Yi had his own strengths.
Thick skin was one of them, and being good at putting on an act was another.
After years of battling wits and courage with fellow sellers and buyers, his mental fortitude was rock-solid!
