~7 min read 1,229 words

Geng Jing Shu looked at Wen Yunzhe, her eyes full of heartache.

No wonder Wen Yunzhe hates his grandmother so much; this time Geng Jing Shu clearly saw Wen Fengshu's actions, to the point that even she couldn't bear to watch.

"Yun Zhe, don't be angry; we simply won't acknowledge that old lady."

How could there be such a person? As soon as the two sisters stepped into the Wen family, they were schemed against by their own grandmother.

This is truly inhumane.

"Old Brother Geng, please excuse us, please excuse us!" Xiao Ming glanced lightly at the whole Geng Family, after exchanging pleasantries he stood up and left, went to a secluded spot, found a number, dialed it, and said in an indifferent tone: "Within this month, make sure to destroy the Wen Family for me."

"Arrange for people to sabotage any business field the Wen Family is involved in."

"Also, send people to thoroughly investigate all illegal activities Wen Fengshu has engaged in since going into business, including her only grandson, Wen Dongyu, someone who loves eating, drinking, and having fun—he must have done something shady; investigate all of that as well."

"Within this month, I will make Wen Fengshu fall from the clouds to the bottom of the valley, and let her taste what it feels like to be at others' mercy."

After ending the call, Xiao Ming still felt indignant thinking about everything that old thing had done to his daughters and to Wen Zhihan.

"Hehehe..." At that moment, a clear female voice sounded from beside, laughing happily.

He turned his head and looked over.

He saw an extremely charming and very beautiful woman sitting on a stone beside XiaoMo, eyeing him playfully.

"Hello, I'm Yi Qi." The woman walked up to Xiao Ming with confidence, smiling lightly and saying, "Sorry, I couldn't control myself."

As she spoke, she laughed again, but this time she made no sound.

Xiao Ming understood her meaning, but he didn't care; he politely nodded and prepared to leave.

"Hey, do you know what the Wen Family does?"

Yi Qi stopped him and said seriously, "Wen Fengshu is a person with over a hundred billion in assets; the Wen Clan is a well-known tycoon in the market. This time, upon entering An Jin, many large companies are vying to cooperate with the Wen Clan…"

Yet she told this man, whom she had never even met, that she would destroy the Wen Family within this month.

In Yi Qi's view, this man simply wanted to draw attention to himself by using such a method.

She didn't take Xiao Ming's words to heart at all.

"Mm." Xiao Ming gave a faint response; after Wen Fengshu's disturbance, his mood was not good, and he couldn't be bothered to say more to the woman before him, so he turned and walked away.

Seeing the other party ignore her so blatantly, Yi Qi felt a little displeased—just because he's good‑looking? His arrogance is too much.

But being good‑looking is a form of capital.

Thinking this, Yi Qi curled her lip and walked toward the direction Xiao Ming had gone.

……

The banquet venue.

Xiao Ming had just returned when he instinctively glanced toward his daughters; with just one look, his anger eased a little, but then it began to rise again.

Because he saw members of the Wen Family standing beside his two daughters, acting arrogantly and saying something to the sisters.

Seeing the sisters looking angry and upset, it was clear they were being made things difficult for.

"Jingrou, Yuchun." Xiao Ming hurried over to his daughters, his eyes filled with intense anger: "Jingrou, Yuchun, what's wrong?"

"Father!"

Seeing Xiao Ming arrive, Wen Yunzhe felt much more confident and quickly said to him, "Dad, the people of the Wen Family are too arrogant and overbearing!"

"That old thing had her bring two sets of dresses, saying she wanted Jingrou and Yuchun to wear them so they wouldn't look shabby and embarrass the Wen Family; seeing that woman's arrogant expression, I felt disgusted."

"The dresses for Jingrou and Yuchun were the ones you gave them; to them they are priceless treasures, so they naturally don't want to change them, but this woman said they were wearing street‑stall goods, just as vulgar as the people themselves."

After Wen Yunzhe explained the whole incident, she angrily looked at the woman opposite and said, "You're going too far."

Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun, eyes red, rushed into Xiao Ming's embrace: "Father, these people are too much."

"Jingrou, Yuchun, I'm here." After personally comforting the two sisters, Xiao Ming lifted his gaze, coldly staring at that woman and said indifferently, "So you said my daughters are wearing street‑stall goods?"

"Hmph." Ding Wan stared straight at Xiao Ming's eyes, saying righteously, "That's right, I said it—am I not allowed to speak just because I'm alive?"

"Could it be that those ragged dresses they're wearing are actually more costly?" As the words fell, the surrounding spectators burst into laughter.

As the saying goes, good news stays at home while bad news travels far; although Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun had only just appeared in everyone's sight, they were poor girls, and the fact that Wen Fengshu had brought them back to the Wen Family had already been quietly spread among the guests.

"If it were any other time, they could wear whatever they wanted, but today is the Wen Family's big celebration, with so many dignitaries present; dressing so shabbily simply throws away all of the Wen Family's face."

"Those who don't know might think our Wen Family doesn't even give them a decent dress to wear."

"The old lady had me bring two dresses for them; they're not that great, just exclusive designs by an international designer, but I think they've never seen such high‑end dresses in their lives."

"Hmph, if I were to say, just accept the face given; don't be shameless, it's pointless."

After Ding Wan finished her sharp, sarcastic remarks, she gestured to the servants to bring the two sets of dresses on a tray to Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun, arrogantly playing with the pigeon‑sized diamond on her hand, she said, "Hurry and follow the servants—take off those street‑stall clothes you're wearing and put these on."

"You wretched women, take your things and get lost, or I won't be polite—I, the young master, have no rule against hitting women." Wen Yunzhe flew into a rage, rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward to hit Ding Wan.

Geng Jing Shu tightly grabbed Wen Yunzhe.

Wen Jingrou's and Wen Yuchun's eye sockets grew redder, tears swirling in their eyes.

"Tsk, I just heard that those two little girls are the children of the Wen Family's eldest daughter, Wen Zhihan, and they've only recently been acknowledged by the Wen Family."

"I see—originally they were sparrows that flew up to become young ladies of a wealthy family."

"Today the Wen Family specially held a banquet and invited all these big shots; the two sisters dressing so shabbily is indeed clueless—could it be they're deliberately slapping the Wen Family's face?"

The nearby guests began to chatter.

Wen Jingrou and Wen Yuchun, the two sisters, as soon as they entered, attracted much attention; upon seeing their striking eyebrows, women either felt envy or jealousy, with jealousy being the majority.
