After I died, I became the white moonlight of the crazy villain.
Chapter 97 Absolutely no way she'll be allowed into the company.
I immediately ran upstairs and saw my mother lying on the bed, her face pale, with many pills scattered on the floor.
The maid, holding a medicine bottle, told me anxiously, "Madam has taken sleeping pills!"
My mind went blank for a moment, and then I quickly dialed the ambulance number.
My dad stood behind me, frowning. His first thought wasn't about my mom's health, but about today's banquet. "Why would she suddenly take sleeping pills? The guests are about to arrive!"
A surge of anger rose within me. What kind of time is this? All he cares about is the banquet and his reputation. "If the guests from outside knew how heartless and ungrateful you are, with your own wife on the verge of death and you still thinking about the banquet, I wonder if they would dare to cooperate with you in the future."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" my dad snapped, his expression extremely unnatural. "Your mother took sleeping pills, it wasn't me who forced her to take them!"
I didn't want to waste time here, so I had the maid bring some milk to induce vomiting in my mother.
After the ambulance arrived, I immediately took her to the hospital. The doctor told me that because she was brought in in time and I took some first aid measures, my mother was temporarily out of danger.
Upon hearing this news, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did I realize that I had been too nervous, which had caused my hands and feet to feel weak.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, and thankfully, everything was still in time.
I found a caregiver for my mom at the hospital so that she can be taken care of once she wakes up. Then I can go back and pack her clothes.
When I got home, the banquet had already started as scheduled, and it was very lively. My dad introduced Bian Jiahui to every guest present.
The anger that had been building up inside me finally erupted. I thought that after living together for so many years, my parents must have at least some affection for each other.
But now it seems that my mother is not worth mentioning in my father's heart at all. She is in the hospital and her life is hanging by a thread, but the banquet here is still being held as usual.
I walked in with a sullen face, and everyone around me fell silent when they saw me.
There was another group of people whispering behind them, their eyes filled with inquiry and curiosity.
"Is this the eldest daughter of the Jiang family? Didn't she say she wasn't feeling well and wouldn't be attending the banquet? Why is she suddenly showing up again?"
"Don't you understand? Suddenly there's an illegitimate daughter fighting with her for the family fortune. Anyone would be unhappy in that situation. The Jiang family used to be a model family, envied by everyone in the circle. But from now on, the Jiang family is going to be quite a spectacle."
I heard what they were saying, of course, but I didn't say a word. My dad turned to look at me, and his expression froze for a moment.
Even at this point, he was still trying to save face by saying, "Since you're not feeling well, you don't need to attend the banquet. Go upstairs and get some rest."
I stood silently in front of him, and everyone around me fell silent.
My dad's brows furrowed slowly, and just as he was about to speak, Bian Jiahui came out, stepped forward, and grabbed my arm. "Little sister, you've come at the right time! I was just talking to Dad about you! We're family now, and I'd feel really bad if you didn't attend this kind of event."
She smiled, her hand gripping my arm tightly. "Since you're here, introduce me to all the uncles and elders here. I'll learn more about business so I can join the company and help you out."
My eyes darted around slightly, shifting my gaze to her. An illegitimate child, yet she dared to dream of getting into the company.
It's not that she was delusional; the problem is that my father gave her too much hope.
I thought of Li Yaqin, and Fu Xinyi. These people are forcing me step by step. In my previous life, they trampled on my bones, and now they are still not satisfied. They want to cling to me and keep sucking my blood.
Thinking of this, I forcefully pulled my hand away.
Caught off guard, Bian Jiahui staggered. After regaining her composure, she said in a wronged voice, "Little sister, I know you don't like me, but there are so many people here today. What you're doing is embarrassing Dad."
"Are you trying to drive me crazy, you rebellious daughter? You promised me everything before, what's with this now?" My dad was full of reproach, and in front of so many guests, he grabbed my arm.
"If you're not feeling well, go upstairs and stay there. Don't embarrass me here."
Hearing this, I couldn't help but sneer. I pushed his arm away and walked to the huge dining table, looking at the champagne tower and the food laid out around it.
I find all of this ridiculous and absurd. We got to where we are today thanks to the business left by my grandparents, but now that we've succeeded, we want to deny everything we did before.
I gripped the tablecloth on the table, my fingers tightening, the anger inside me about to burst forth, and the immense rage filled my body with power.
I quickly ripped off the tablecloth, and with a loud crash, the champagne tower instantly collapsed to the ground, shattering into pieces and spilling its contents everywhere.
I overturned all the food that was laid out around me, and those who were nearby were also affected, screaming in surprise.
"What's going on? Has Miss Jiang gone mad?!"
“Look at her, she doesn’t have the demeanor of a rich young lady at all. Besides, Mr. Jiang’s other daughter has been recognized, so she’s now the second young lady.”
A group of people were talking amongst themselves. My father, his face ashen, said to the servants around him, "What are you all standing there for? Can't you see that Miss has gone mad? Quickly take her back to her room and let her rest."
The maid hesitated for a moment, but still walked towards me.
I grabbed a bottle of red wine from the table next to me and smashed it on the ground. The servants immediately stopped approaching, their faces showing a hint of retreat.
"Get out of here, all of you!" I yelled at the servants.
My dad pointed at me, his fingers trembling, and said, "Are you really crazy? If you really are, I don't mind sending you to a mental hospital so you won't cause trouble for others."
"Am I the one who's crazy, or are you the one who's crazy?!" At this moment, I didn't want to show him any mercy anymore. In front of all the guests, I slowly walked up to him and exposed his pretense.
"You keep saying you'll cherish your wife for life, but she's lying in the hospital, just out of danger, and here you're happily throwing a banquet!"
"You still want this illegitimate daughter to join the company? Let me tell you, absolutely not!"
As soon as I finished speaking, a slap landed on my face, crisp and heavy.
