"Nicole!" Jiang Shujing strode to Jiang Nicole's room and knocked hard on the door.
"Nicole? Nicole? What's wrong?"
Jiang Nicole panted heavily, holding the porcelain shards and looking at Gu Peining.
Hearing Jiang Shujing's voice, Gu Peining's alcoholic spirits subsided a little, although his mind was still a little dazed.
"Gu Yanran, you are really impressive!" He said through gritted teeth.
Originally, he just wanted to threaten her, but he didn't expect to make her make such a big fuss. Now even Jiang Shujing has come.
"I, I... stay away from me, I'm afraid." Jiang Nicole pushed him in a panic, then retreated into the corner.
Seeing her cowardly look, Gu Peining kicked hard at the debris on the ground, making another crash.
Hearing this voice, Jiang Shujing felt anxious and slammed open the door. He was stunned when he entered the room and saw the scene inside.
Jiang Nico huddled in a corner, holding a broken piece of porcelain in her hand, and her face, which was always bright and flamboyant, was full of panic and tears.
Gu Peining stood in front of her, with a pile of broken porcelain at his feet, his clothes were a little wrinkled, and his face was full of anger and unwillingness.
In an instant, countless thoughts flooded Jiang Shujing's mind.
"dad!"
Seeing her, Jiang Nicole was like seeing a savior. She threw away the porcelain in her hand and was about to pounce on her, but when she passed by Gu Peining, she stopped suddenly. Seeing him trying to hold back her sobs, she asked, "Why are you here?"
Seeing his daughter pretending to be strong, Jiang Shujing's face turned dark. He glanced at Gu Peining next to him with a dark face and asked, "I heard your voice coming from here and come over to see what happened?"
"It's nothing, it's just that my elder brother came to talk to me, and then accidentally broke it."
This excuse, let alone Jiang Shujing, Gu Peining knows it's a bit fake, but the matter has come to this point, he can't say that he is here to threaten her. Although Jiang Nicole's excuse is lame, it has given him a step up Down.
"Uncle, I came to talk to my sister and accidentally broke the vase."
Jiang Shujing's eyes lingered on the faces of the two of them several times, "Accidentally smashed?"
In this scene, it was obviously his precious daughter who was bullied, and accidentally said that she broke something. These two people thought he was blind, and Jiang Nicole had never seen it like that when she grew up in the scene just now. He was so excited and wronged.
"Yeah, accidentally. Dad, I'm sorry, I made you worry, and I was too scared all of a sudden."
Jiang Nicole explained in a panic, and she was about to cry from the expression on her face.
Jiang Shujing raised her hand to interrupt her, stepped over the pile of broken porcelain, pulled Jiang Nicole to her side, and looked at Gu Peining, who was pale, "Why did you come to Nicole so late?"
"I just came back."
As soon as Jiang Shujing entered the room, she smelled the smell of alcohol. When she walked to Gu Peining's side, she realized that the smell of alcohol was very strong.
"Just came back from drinking?" He asked in a bad tone.
"Yes, it's a bit too much to socialize and drink with customers."
"Since you know that you have drunk too much, you should go back to rest early. What important things can't be discussed tomorrow? Do you have to come to Nicole at night? I know you have something to do, but those who don't know will say that our Jiang family has no tutors." Jiang Shujing said The voice was a little heavier.
"Yes, I will pay attention next time."
Gu Peining lowered his head, as if admitting his mistake.
"Also, although you and Nicole are brother and sister, you have to avoid danger. It's not a problem to stay in a girl's bedroom so late."
"I see. I didn't think carefully. I must pay attention next time."
"Nicole doesn't like to interfere with the company's affairs. I respect her wishes. I just want her to live a happy life, so I never force her. I don't want others to force her to do things she doesn't like. If there is Why don't you tell me anything, if I know that others dare to ask her to do something she doesn't like and make her unhappy, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"I'm just talking to her about something trivial, there's no other meaning." Hearing Jiang Shujing's threatening words, Gu Peining suddenly sobered up.
"That's good, it's getting late, you should go to bed early. The company will be very busy tomorrow."
"Yes." Facing Jiang Shujing's strong aura, Gu Peining didn't dare to resist at all, and hurriedly withdrew.
"Nicole, are you okay?" Jiang Shujing pulled her to the bed and sat down, looked at her and asked with distressed expression.
"I am fine."
"What did he say just now? Did he threaten you? Or did he force you to do something you don't like?"
"No, no." Jiang Nico shook her head in a panic.
"Dad, actually Gu Peining..." Jiang Nicole looked at Jiang Shujing's eyes with a thousand words, and finally said only one sentence, "He is very kind to me, don't worry too much."
What's the point of saying it now, we have to wait for a while until Jiang Shujing can't stand Gu Peining anymore.
She wanted Gu Peining to be tortured all the time, but she had to hide it from her father for a while, Jiang Nicole thought a little guilty.
Gu Peining, who was eavesdropping on the corner at the door, breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Gu Yanran would not listen to him, and put himself in front of Jiang Shujing. Facts have proved that he was too worried. It seems that she still doesn't dare to do anything. Sample.
Worried that Jiang Shujing would lose her temper again when she saw herself coming out, Gu Peining turned around and left quickly.
In the room, Jiang Shujing patted her on the shoulder reassuringly, "Don't worry, I will not let anyone who dares to bully you go."
"No, he is very nice to me. Didn't you also say that it's nice to have a brother." Jiang Nicole smiled at him.
Jiang Shujing sighed, it's good to have an older brother, but the premise is that this older brother is absolutely good to him and cannot take advantage of him, Gu Peining obviously has other thoughts now, otherwise Xie Jingyu would not let Jiang Nicole participate What a reception, selling his daughter like a commodity.
Thinking of this, Jiang Shujing's eyes turned cold.
"Don't worry, Dad won't let you take a good rest if you are wronged."
"Ah."
Seeing Jiang Nicole lying down on the bed, Jiang Shujing touched her head, then turned off the light for her, and quietly left.
After leaving Jiang Nicole's bedroom, the smile on Jiang Shujing's face disappeared completely.
"You're back?"
Xie Jingyu was doing skin care at the table after taking a shower, when she saw Jiang Shujing coming in, she turned around and asked with a smile.
But the expression on Jiang Shujing's face was not good, she was a little worried, she asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Why is your face so bad?"
"Isn't that good son of yours?" Jiang Shujing looked at Xie Jingyu with a cold expression on his face.
"What happened to Peining?" Xie Jingyu asked.
"I was in Nicole's room reeking of alcohol just now, and the room was in a mess."
Xie Jingyu covered her mouth in surprise, as if she couldn't believe it, "What happened?"
Jiang Shujing kept looking at the expression on Xie Jingyu's face, and felt a little funny when he heard him ask, "You really don't know?"
"I have no idea."
"Isn't it your idea that Gu Peining ran to Nicole's room after drinking too much?"
"How could I let him make trouble? If you say that, Shu Jing, it will hurt my heart too much. You know that since I married into this family, I have been working hard and doing my best for this family."
"Is it for this family or for Gu Peining?"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Didn't you take Nicole to the reception and introduce a lot of people to her?"
"Yeah, then I'm also anxious about her marriage. Nicole is already in her 20s. It's just the right time to be young. Now I don't want to find her a suitable person to marry. When she gets older, she will be young and talented." But it was snatched away. You are busy with the company's affairs every day and don't worry about her. Of course, I have to think about her more. How come you are my fault." Xie Jingyu said more and more wronged.
"Whoever she likes is her business. Young people like to hang out and make many friends. She is free to like whoever she likes, and she is also free to fall in love. I don't want anyone to interfere with whoever she likes."
"I respect her wishes, do you still have to intervene?" Jiang Shujing looked at her coldly.
"Besides, is it really for her good or ulterior motives? The people in the villa are not blind. They are all watching. You'd better be quiet in the future."
"Jiang Shujing, so you don't trust me so much, you would rather believe their words." Xie Jingyu looked at Jiang Shujing in disbelief.
She didn't expect that Jiang Shujing would be stared at her.
"It's not that you don't believe it, it's that what you do yourself is hard to believe."
"Xie Jingyu, I remember that when we got married, I said that Nicole is my bottom line. I can tolerate your willfulness and satisfy your vanity, but I will never allow you to do anything that is sorry for Jiang Nicole, no matter you are Whether you use it or make things difficult, once I find out, I will never let you go lightly."
"I haven't. It's been so many years. When did I use her?"
Seeing Jiang Shujing's more and more menacing gaze, Xie Jingyu's voice gradually weakened.
"Isn't it for our family that I introduced those young talents to her? If she finds a good one, the company will be able to go to a higher level by then."
"My Huanyu Group can grow big not by women and marriage, but by my own ability. If this company requires me to sacrifice my daughter's happiness in order to become prosperous, then there is no need for this company to continue." Jiang Shujing finished. Turn around and leave.
If he hadn't chatted with those servants in private and tricked them, he wouldn't have known that Xie Jingyu's usual performance in front of him was so different from what she did behind her back.
Everyone said that the stepmother was cruel, but he thought Xie Jingyu was different, and he didn't dare to treat Jiang Nico badly for his own sake. It seemed that she had to show her some color, otherwise she would definitely push her nose in the face. If she follows the wind, her daughter will have a harder life.
"Jiang Shujing, come back, at worst I don't want to interfere next time, come back!" Xie Jingyu looked at his back and shouted.
But Jiang Shujing left without looking back.
Jiang Shujing turned around, looked at her distorted face in front of the mirror, and angrily pushed those skin care products aside.
She is over forty, and her skin is starting to loosen. Although she is wearing expensive cosmetics, it can't stop her from aging. By then, she will lose her attractiveness in front of Jiang Shujing.
"Nicole? Nicole? What's wrong?"
Jiang Nicole panted heavily, holding the porcelain shards and looking at Gu Peining.
Hearing Jiang Shujing's voice, Gu Peining's alcoholic spirits subsided a little, although his mind was still a little dazed.
"Gu Yanran, you are really impressive!" He said through gritted teeth.
