Chapter 31
This was such a bad lie.
Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Chen Qinglian with a hint of pressure. “Aunt Chen, are you sure that Yining borrowed money from you?”
Their eyes met.
His eyes were filled with distrust and a powerful aura.
Chen Qinglian’s body started to tremble. That girl was indeed powerful!
In the past, Ah Zhi trusted her so much that no matter what she said, he would never question her as he did now.
Jiang Yining had only been with Ah Zhi for a few days, and she had completely shattered her trust with Ah Zhi.
If she allowed this girl to continue staying by Ah Zhi’s side, she believed that it wouldn’t be long before everything that she had painstakingly built for thirty years would be destroyed by Jiang Yining!
“I’m sorry, Ah Zhi. I lied to you.” Chen Qinglian cried and lowered her head.
“Mom, what’s going on with the money? Tell me! Why was it related to Jiang Yining?” Chen Kexin acted according to what she had discussed with her mother.
“Stop asking.”
Chen Qinglian pretended to be in a difficult position and shook her head, refusing to answer.
“No, you have to say it!” Chen Kexin continued to ask.
“Qinglian, stop hiding it and tell me the truth. No matter what, I’ll make the decision for you.”
From her tone, it sounded like she was certain that Jiang Yining had forced her.
Chen Qinglian was somewhat confident now. She took a deep breath, wiped her tears, and said, “Old Madam, Ah Zhi, I didn’t want to cause trouble for her. After all, Ah Zhi liked Miss Jiang… And I hope that Ah Zhi can be happy… However, if I don’t say it out, I’m afraid that Ah Zhi will continue to be deceived by her.”
“Yesterday, I received a call from Miss Jiang. She said that she hoped that I could go out and meet her for Ah Zhi’s sake and have a good talk. I agreed.”
“When we reached the agreed time and place, I didn’t expect Miss Jiang to ask me to give her 70,000 dollars. Otherwise, she wouldn’t continue treating Ah Zhi.”
“She also said… She was just playing with Ah Zhi. Once she had earned enough money for the rest of her life, she would leave Ah Zhi. We can’t disturb her during this period of time. Otherwise, she will do something bad to Ah Zhi.”
“I thought that she would leave Ah Zhi sooner or later. As long as Ah Zhi could live happily and blissfully, I agreed to give her some money.”
“Because I was in a hurry, I didn’t bring any cash with me, so I wrote her a check on the spot. However, Miss Jiang was unwilling to take the check. She said that if she went to the bank to get the check, Ah Zhi would find out and tear it up in front of me. Later, she instructed me to transfer 70,000 dollars to her account within ten days.”
When Chen Qinglian said this, she looked up at Lu Zhi and said seriously, “I thought that if I gave her 70,000, she would stay with you obediently, but I never expected that she would send you these photos and distort the truth. Ah Zhi, I know you trust her now and not me. But I swear to the heavens that everything I said is true! If there’s even half a lie, let me be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!”
“This is too much! That Demoness!”
Old Madam Lu stood up and scolded angrily.
Chen Kexin also said angrily, “She’s too shameless!” How could this kind of woman be worthy of Brother Ah Zhi?”
Lu Zhi glanced at Chen Qinglian and said, “I don’t believe your one-sided words. Do you dare to confront Yining?”
He would not side with anyone.
If Yining was really as Aunt Chen had said, scheming and playing these harmful tricks, he would never keep her by his side!
But if Aunt Chen slandered Jiang Yining…
He would never show mercy!
“I dare.” Chen Qinglian spat out this word firmly without the slightest fear.
