Chapter 7 Forcing Her To Put Her Face Underfoot

• When Jiang Weiyang returned home, she learned that Xue Silü had already arranged for someone to return her phone.
• She didn't pay much attention to it. She had no intention of pleasing this man with unpredictable moods. The only reason she married him was for Lin Xin.
• After taking a hot shower, Jiang Weiyang went to bed early.
• "Jiang Weiyang! What did you do to offend Young Master Xue?"
• Early the next morning, before Jiang Weiyang had even fully awakened, she received a phone call from Jiang Zhentao. The man on the other end of the line was angrily roaring, his voice piercing through the phone and causing her eardrums to ache.
• Jiang Weiyang moved the phone a little farther away and carefully recalled her interactions with Xue Silü yesterday. She confirmed that she hadn't done anything to provoke him, but he lacked manners and had actually abandoned her in the wilderness.
• "I didn't do anything, and I didn't say anything. Mr. Jiang, do you have something to say?" Jiang Weiyang replied indifferently. Then she got up, feeling extremely tired these past two days, and her body still hadn't fully recovered.
• "You come to the hospital immediately! Jiang Weiyang, let me tell you, if you don't appease my father, Young Master Xue, I will have the hospital stop giving your mother her medication. I can guarantee you that no hospital in Shengjing will dare to admit your mother! If you don't believe me, just wait and see!" Jiang Zhentao shouted in a fit of rage before hanging up the phone.
• Jiang Weiyang frowned in disgust. Jiang Zhentao was truly repulsive, resorting to threatening Lin Xin's life and having no other means?
• But unfortunately, Jiang Weiyang fell for it.
• Letting out a sigh, Jiang Weiyang freshened up, changed her clothes, and then dragged her exhausted body to the hospital.
• In the hospital, Lin Xin looked at Jiang Zhentao with a pleading expression, whispering something to him. Jiang Zhentao's face was full of disgust and impatience, clearly not wanting to listen to Lin Xin's nagging.
• Seeing Lin Xin like that, Jiang Weiyang also felt weary. She pinched her brow at the entrance before pushing the door open and coldly looking at Jiang Zhentao, "What exactly do you want to do?"
• "Go apologize to Xue Shaodao immediately! Unless he is willing to forgive you, otherwise, I will have the hospital kick your mother out today!" Jiang Zhentao completely ignored Lin Xin, who was desperately trying to speak on behalf of Jiang Weiyang, and coldly said to Jiang Weiyang.
• Jiang Weiyang glanced at Lin Xin, who could only shake her head helplessly.
• A wave of weariness flashed through Jiang Weiyang's heart, and she impatiently replied, "Even if you kick her out, I have no way to do anything. I haven't offended Xue Silu, I have no idea what happened. Mr. Jiang, can you please tell me what exactly happened first?"
• "You haven't offended him? Shortly after you left with him yesterday, Xue Shaodao directly called off the cooperation project with the Jiang Group! If you didn't offend him, why would he suddenly cancel the project for no reason? Regardless of whether you offended him or not, you must apologize to me! Get the project back for me!"
• Jiang Zhentao was so angry that he almost raised his hand to slap Jiang Weiyang.
• However, he thought that Jiang Weiyang would be meeting Xue Silu shortly, and if his face was injured, it wouldn't look good. So he forcibly held back his anger, but he looked extremely dissatisfied with Jiang Weiyang.
• He didn't dare to get angry with Jiang Weiyang, so he vented all his resentment on Lin Xin, "Look at the daughter you raised! She will eventually destroy the Jiang family!"
• "Enough, Jiang Zhentao! What does the Jiang family have to do with me? In the first place, you only asked me to marry Xue Silu. Now, I listened to you and used my entire life as a bargaining chip to marry a man I don't love. Are you still not satisfied? Let me tell you, if you have the ability, go ahead and kick my mother out! I don't believe that, with my identity as Mrs. Xue, I won't be able to find a hospital willing to accept my mother!"
• Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone Jiang Weiyang, who has never been easy to talk to, especially when facing Jiang Zhentao.
• Jiang Zhentao was extremely angered by her words, pointing at her and intermittently cursing in anger, "You, you, do you really think that marrying Xue Silu gives you the freedom to do whatever you want? Let me tell you, Jiang Weiyang, you will always be my daughter! If I want you dead, I can easily make you die!"
• "Then go ahead and try it! Mom, we're leaving this hospital, let's go home now!"
• Jiang Weiyang's face turned cold as she cursed and went over to pull Lin Xin, intending to pack up and leave the hospital.
• Jiang Zhentao sneered as he looked at Jiang Weiyang. "Do you think she will listen to you or to me?"
• As soon as Jiang Zhentao finished speaking, Jiang Weiyang had a bad feeling.
• Sure enough, the next moment, Jiang Zhentao asked Lin Xin, "Xinxin, tell her, are you leaving the hospital with her or coming back to Jiang's house with me?"
• "You, you want to take me back to Jiang's house?"
• Lin Xin had always dreamed of entering Jiang's house and becoming the legitimate Mrs. Jiang, so that Jiang Weiyang's status could also be legitimate.
• She was the original wife of Jiang Zhentao, but now she was being called a mistress, and Jiang Weiyang was suffering along with her.
• She could ignore her own dignity, but she couldn't ignore her daughter.
• Jiang Zhentao's words ignited hope in her heart.
• But she didn't know that her behavior, in Jiang Weiyang's eyes, was heart-wrenching.
• Jiang Weiyang closed her eyes and suddenly felt extremely powerless.
• Even if she struggled desperately, what could she do? Every time she thought she could struggle out of the quagmire, her mother would always smile gently and push her back into the abyss.
• "Mom..." Jiang Weiyang spoke wearily, looking at Lin Xin with disappointment and exhaustion in her eyes.
• Lin Xin ignored her and eagerly continued to ask Jiang Zhentao, "Are you really planning to give me a status? Let me be Mrs. Jiang?"
• Jiang Zhentao felt a deep disgust towards Lin Xin's appearance, but now that Jiang Weiyang was married to Xue Siliu, her status had changed. The Xue family placed great importance on reputation, and if they discovered that Jiang Weiyang was not the legitimate Miss Jiang, they might hold him accountable. Therefore, Lin Xin had to return to the Jiang household, and Jiang Weiyang had to be recognized as the legitimate Miss Jiang.
• "Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?" Jiang Zhentao suppressed his disgust and reached out to support Lin Xin's shoulder, answering with deep affection.
• Lin Xin was overjoyed and turned to look at Jiang Weiyang. "Yangyang, did you hear that? Dad has acknowledged us. He wants to bring us back to the Jiang household. Sob..."
• Jiang Weiyang looked at Lin Xin's expression, opened her mouth, but couldn't find the words to say. Lin Xin had single-handedly destroyed the advantage she had gained in this battle.
• Once Lin Xin returned to the Jiang family, it would become a tool for Jiang Zhentao to manipulate her. From then on, her every move would be controlled by Jiang Zhentao, and she might even be coerced into agreeing to his conditions, going against her own will.
• Unfortunately, Lin Xin was still complacent and completely oblivious to what was wrong.
• Does she truly love that man so much?
• To the extent that she is willing to sacrifice her own and her daughter's dignity, allowing others to trample on them without hesitation.
• Jiang Zhentao smirked triumphantly, then turned to Jiang Weiyang and spoke with a serious tone, "Yang Yang, Dad made mistakes in the past, but in a family, there shouldn't be any lingering grudges. It's not beneficial for us if you offend Young Master Xue, no matter what the reason is. So, be a good boy and apologize, okay?"
• Although his words seemed like a discussion, his tone was commanding. Jiang Zhentao deliberately touched Lin Xin's shoulder in front of Jiang Weiyang, making his intentions very clear.
• He wanted to use Lin Xin as a means to threaten her!
• Unfortunately, she knew it all too well, but was powerless to do anything about it!
