"Of course, if you confess yourself, then I will give you a chance to atone for your sins, considering your good attitude in admitting your mistake."
"Old Jiang, what do you an?" Cheng Li’s face changed, and she suddenly looked up at Old Jiang. She had considered various consequences and the reactions of Old Jiang and the others, but had never thought it would co to this.
From Old Jiang’s words just now, does he intend to use torture on her?
Torture? At the thought of these words, Cheng Li thought of the brutal tortures described in books, her face turning pale.
"Cheng Li, I reckon you are also a smart person, and you should understand that there’s no such thing as a free lunch."
Old Jiang’s implication was obvious, since he had fished Cheng Li out of prison, and she was not a mber of the Jiang Family, he would have to collect so interest.
Although Cheng Li was terrified of torture, she also slowly cald down, then said, "What does Old Jiang want to do? Don’t forget, none of this was initiated by , it was forced on by you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Rui and An Ru finally understood why Old Jiang was so angry earlier. So it turns out that this Cheng Li was a fake. But if she was fake, why did Old Jiang bring her back?
From what they knew, Old Jiang wasn’t an impulsive person. On the contrary, he was quite ticulous in his actions, so why bring back a fake?
However, the couple didn’t know that Old Jiang was provoked by Jiang Xue. Because Jiang Xue refused to return to the Jiang Family, and Cheng Li erged at that ti.
At the ti, Old Jiang didn’t think much about it, he just wanted to bring Cheng Li back, firstly to make up for the bad influence caused by Jiang Mingzhu, and secondly as a show for Jiang Xue.
However, he didn’t know that Jiang Xue didn’t care about these things at all. Living a second life, she saw through many things.
She understood that only by becoming strong herself and standing tall could she truly be admired. As the saying goes, one must be strong to fight the enemy. She never thought of relying on her family, she only wanted to beco strong as quickly as possible.
Then she could stand at the sa height as Mu Qiancheng and stand side by side.
"Indeed, I have a responsibility. But I will find out the truth of the matter. If I find out that you and your mother conspired to deceive , then don’t bla for being ruthless."
Old Jiang is not soone who is easy to deal with; he can be ruthless to his own relatives, let alone others. He would arrange for soone to investigate and find out everything clearly.
If it is true that Cheng Li and Mrs. Cheng conspired to deceive him, then he certainly wouldn’t let them off easily.
Cheng Li looked at Old Jiang, opened her mouth, but couldn’t speak.
"Alright, you may leave now." Old Jiang gave Cheng Li a cold glance, waved his hand, and let her go. Previously, he wanted to drive Cheng Li out of the Jiang Family, partly for the sake of face, and partly because he didn’t want Cheng Li to benefit.
But later, he thought it was better to keep her first. Otherwise, if she absconded out of guilt, it would not only be troubleso to find her but would also waste resources.
Cheng Li didn’t want to leave, but given the current situation, she had no choice but to go. However, her heart was extrely uneasy, not knowing what awaited her next.
She thought about running away, but she had only arrived at the Jiang Family recently and was unfamiliar with the place, making escape incredibly difficult. Besides, she was reluctant to give up the wealth of the Jiang Family. She planned to take a gamble, betting that Old Jiang would want to save face and wouldn’t expose her identity in the short term.
So, for the ti being, she was safe. And she had to change her circumstances before Old Jiang uncovered the truth, otherwise, it was uncertain what her outco would be.
