Chapter 153: Watching Her Performance
“Although those people had initially gone for Zeyu, and none of the three people were injured in the end… There were some other people mixed in with this group of gangsters. These people had been hired by your uncle, Lu Hetai.”
Jiang Wan said in surprise, “Big Brother, you mean to say that Uncle hired people to find trouble with Fourth Brother and Big Sister? Why would Uncle do such a thing?!”
After saying this, she suddenly came to a realization. “No wonder you asked me if I said something to Uncle. Is it because you thought that I said bad things about Big Sister in front of Uncle and he wanted to avenge me, so he went looking for someone to harm her?”
Jiang Yu sat quietly, watching her performance.
“Big Brother, why do you think such things?” Jiang Wan’s expression darkened. “I don’t deny it. When Uncle asked about my big sister, I told him that she doesn’t like me.”
“That is the truth after all. I didn’t say anything wrong, did I? I might have been in a bad mood at that time. My uncle is a concerned elder and my relative. I couldn’t help but complain to him, but I really didn’t know that he would such a thing.”
“I want to deny that there might be some other plot behind this, and now that I’ve said it, it sounds so ridiculous.”
“My big sister and fourth brother are just students, and my uncle has been working for so long. He has no need to compete with students, nor could he possibly have any financial disputes with Fourth Brother and Big Sister.”
“So, thinking about it, my uncle could only be looking for trouble with them because of me. My uncle did not tell me anything about this though. I don’t know anything about it. If you don’t believe me, I can call my uncle now. If you don’t believe me, you can ask him yourself.”
Of course, Jiang Wan wasn’t afraid of confronting Lu Hetai because she wasn’t the one who had instructed him to do so.
Lu Hetai was only concerned about Jiang Yu’s situation after Jiang Yu had returned. He was only concerned about whether she could get her hands on the Jiang family property.
He was more concerned about whether Jiang Yu would threaten Jiang Wan’s position.
After all, when Jiang Wan’s mother had been around, all his resources had been supplied to him by her mother. Even after her mother’s passing, because of his relationship between the Jiang family and him, who wouldn’t give him face when he went out?
Otherwise, would he have gotten all those projects? Did he really secure all of them by himself?
So, if Jiang Wan fell out of favor in the Jiang family, wouldn’t his source of income be cut off as well?
When Jiang Wan spoke to him on the phone, she only exaggerated a little about how the older brothers of the Jiang family all doted on Jiang Yu, saying that she was neglected in the Jiang family and that she might even get kicked out of the Jiang family.
When Lu Hetai heard this, he was speechless.
How could he not be angry and want to solve the problem called “Jiang Yu”?
He almost wanted to go directly to the Jiang family to meet this Jiang Yu. How could a daughter raised by a mediocre family compare to Jiang Wan, who had received so many years of higher education from the Jiang Family?
It was Jiang Wan who stopped him and told him to not be so impulsive. Things were not too bad, so he should not make the move to make things unmanageable.
But…
Of course, she had other ways to spread the idea that she had thought of to Lu Hetai.
Jiang Wan pursed her lips. There were still traces of tears on her face. “Big Brother, if I really wanted to harm my big sister, why didn’t I find a stranger to do it instead of asking uncle? Wouldn’t it be too obvious and I’d be exposing myself?”
