Let me win you over, and you'll become a heartthrob before I even begin?

"Husband! Husband!" A woman's urgent voice could be faintly heard from the other end of the phone.

Jiang's father said impatiently, "What's the rush? Can't you see I'm discussing this with my son?"

"Oh dear! What are you still discussing! Something terrible has happened! Why didn't you answer Lao Wang's call? Those two mysterious investors said Li Ye caused this trouble, and they absolutely refuse to help unless we sever ties with Li Ye!"

Hear the words.

Jiang Liye's face suddenly turned deathly pale, and his lips twitched: "Dad..."

Faced with the prospect of personal gain, he was terrified that his father would abandon him!

A long sigh came from the other end: "Ah Ye...you know, Dad...Dad doesn't really want to give up on you!"

"But you know, the Jiang family is in dire straits right now. One must be patient for a while, for the future will change!"

“I know this is unfair to you. I promise I will make it up to you when the Jiang family becomes successful! We will pretend to sever ties for now, and you will have to bear with it for a while.”

"Son, Dad knows you're not an unreasonable person. You'll understand Dad, right?"

Jiang Liye lowered his head in disappointment, his lips trembling: "Okay... I understand... Father."

Mr. Jiang breathed a sigh of relief: "My dear son, don't worry, Dad would never abandon you!"

Jiang's father said some words of comfort, but Jiang Liye remained silent.

Xu Wenli, who was standing to the side, was furious. How could Jiang Liye, that idiot, not understand such an obvious trap and who he should ask for help?

The real mastermind behind it all, the kidnapper in front of them, is the one who controls everything. Instead of seizing the opportunity to beg for forgiveness, he's busy chattering and doing useless work!

If she could speak, she would have cursed Jiang Liye, that brainless idiot, to death long ago!

With Jiang Liye's brain, let alone inheriting the family business, he's probably just a useless spoiled brat!

Xu Wenli bit her lip. Once she got out, she would quickly find another rich young man. She didn't want to waste her youth on a good-for-nothing!

The next moment, the phone rang. Jiang's mother answered the phone, and because they were close by, her voice could be heard through Jiang Liye's phone.

"Old Wang? No, Old Jiang didn't ignore your calls on purpose. You know he's on the phone trying to comfort the kids."

"What a load of crap! I must be out of my mind to do this mess with you guys. What have you done?! The boss said you didn't keep your promise and were playing this fake breakup game. Now look what happened, we know you were trying to lie to them, so we'll never cooperate again, and you've dragged me into this mess too!"

"Damn it, you guys have really ruined my life! Don't come looking for me again! My place is too small to help someone as powerful as you!"

The call was disconnected, and Jiang's mother called out anxiously, "Wait! Hello? Hello!"

Jiang's father's trembling voice came through: "What happened! Was my phone tapped?!"

Jiang's mother had the speakerphone on, so everyone present could hear them talking.

Yan Weixi suddenly thought of something, and a malicious smirk appeared on her lips.

She looked at Xu Wenli, and when Xu Wenli met her ambiguous smile, she shuddered, feeling a bad premonition.

Yan Weixi will never forget what Xu Wenli loved to do most—

Frame someone.

She glanced at Xu Wenli, and Xu Wenli's lips involuntarily parted, uttering words that sent chills down Xu Wenli's spine:

"Uncle, Aye isn't alone; I'm with her too!"

Upon hearing herself say those words, Xu Wenli's face turned deathly pale.

Even Jiang Liye was shocked as to why Xu Wenli would say such a thing. Wasn't this pushing them completely into a fire pit?

Upon hearing this, Jiang's father roared, "Jiang Liye! I'm so disappointed in you! You dared to lie and say there was no one there! Now look what's happened! Are you happy now? You've ruined the Jiang family and you don't even know you're wrong, but at this critical moment, you still lie and deceive your parents. Do you want the entire Jiang family to be buried with you before you're satisfied?"

Jiang's father was so angry that his heart ached: "Fine! Fine! Fine! Jiang Liye, you've got guts! Don't call me 'Dad' anymore! Get out of the Jiang family!"

After saying that, Mr. Jiang hung up the phone.

Jiang Liye roared in despair, "Enough! What do you want?! I have no grudge against you! Why are you treating me like this?! Is it fun to play with me?!"

Yan Weixi kicked Jiang Liye, who was only capable of impotent rage, to the ground.

"Long-winded."

Yan Weixi turned to leave, and as she did so, Jiang Liye and Xu Wenli immediately fainted. The ropes binding them came off, and their memories of seeing them that night were quietly erased, leaving them trapped in a nightmare.

*Random thoughts.

Let's clear the mines again.

Xi Xi is not pure white; she is a bit cunning. She is willing to take action against people she hates and grudges, and she doesn't mind tripping them up or scheming in secret. She bullies the wicked and will also use the same tricks the other party has used to disgust them in return.

Wishing all the little ones happiness every day today! (｀?w?′)
