Cha Jiu's eyes instantly turned red.

But she was still like a wary little beast, trying her best to hold up the defensive thorns in her body: "Since the Jiang family has decided to break off the engagement with me, why should Mr. Jiang pretend to care about me?"

"Breaking off the engagement?" Jiang Tingxu frowned, "When did the Jiang family say they wanted to break off the engagement?"

"A few days ago." Cha Jiu's voice was cold and aggrieved, "After my mother passed away as soon as she closed her eyes."

Jiang Tingxu's eyes darkened.

He turned his head and told the bodyguard beside him: "Go and call Jiang Chen over."

Cha Jiu could hear the displeasure in his tone.

And that's exactly what she wanted.

The Jiang family is a century-old family in Beijing. They are engaged in politics and business and have many great people. They pay great attention to the word "kindness and righteousness".

Jiang Tingxu would never allow Jiang Chen to regret his marriage.

And the other party was the daughter of the benefactor who saved him.

Jiang Chen, who was called over, felt a little uneasy.

Although he is Jiang Tingxu's adopted son, he is respected and respected by everyone.

But deep down, he was still very afraid and alienated from his adoptive father, who held a high position.

Because Jiang Tingxu was very strict with him, both in life and in the studies of his successor.

But no matter how hard he tried, he could only get Jiang Tingxu's dissatisfaction: "Jiang Chen, you are still too far behind."

Over time, when facing Jiang Tingxu, Jiang Chen was always worried that he had done something wrong and made his adoptive father angry.

Jiang Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold when he saw Cha Jiu was there.

Sure enough, she was playing tricks again.

"You and Miss Ye said you wanted to break off the engagement?" Jiang Tingxu asked.

"It's not about breaking off the engagement, it's about changing someone. I want to change to another young lady from the Ye family, Ye Nianen." Jiang Chen said.

"Ye Qinghuan is a vulgar worshiper of money and uneducated. I don't think she is qualified for the role of my wife."

He hadn't had time to tell Jiang Tingxu about this decision because he didn't think it was a big deal.

It's just that a more educated and reasonable Miss Ye can do the engagement. She can still repay the favor, and it will only bring advantages and no disadvantages to the Jiang family. Jiang Tingxu should not disagree.

"absurd."

Jiang Tingxu's voice was not high-pitched, but it was full of the intimidating power of a superior: "Kneel down, Mrs. Ye, and apologize for your offense."

Not to mention Jiang Chen, Cha Jiu was also shocked.

In front of everyone, Jiang Tingxu really didn't save any face for his adopted son.

Father Ye quickly came over to dissuade him: "Mr. Jiang, this is impossible. How can Mr. Jiang kneel down..."

Jiang Tingxu interrupted him: "He knelt down to save his life as a benefactor. There is nothing he can't do."

The Jiang family has strict family training, and has always opposed their children to be arrogant and arrogant, and do not know how to bow their heads.

Jiang Chen knew it well, so he knelt down in obedience.

Jiang Tingxu made an unchangeable decision in front of everyone: "Since the Jiang family's heir wife during Mrs. Ye's lifetime is Ye Qinghuan, no matter who takes over the Jiang family in the future, this matter will not change."

The expressions of Father Ye and Ye Nianen changed.

Jiang Tingxu's words made it very clear. If Jiang Chen didn't want to marry Ye Qinghuan, then there was no need to take the position of heir.

The system didn't understand: "Why would Jiang Tingxu rather not have an heir than protect you?"

Chajiu watched all this, his heart like a mirror.

"Jiang Tingxu is not protecting me, but protecting the face and reputation of the Jiang family. These are far more important than Jiang Chen. What's more, judging from Jiang Tingxu's attitude, Jiang Chen is not an irreplaceable heir."

The relationship between Jiang Tingxu and Jiang Chen does not seem to be indestructible.

Jiang Chen was afraid of and obedient to Jiang Tingxu, but he did not get close to him.

And Jiang Tingxu was also a little dissatisfied with this adopted son who was vaguely uncontrollable.

Keeping the engagement candidates unchanged may be a slap on his face against Jiang Chen for making his own decisions.

The system lamented: "Rich people are so complicated."

Cha Jiu: "They are a top-notch wealthy family with a century-old foundation. Naturally, they are not a petty mess like Ye Zhenjiang and Ye Nianen."

Soon, Father Ye's expression returned to normal and he came over to smooth things over.

"Mr. Jiang, this matter is actually Qing Huan's fault. I am used to allowing her to be unruly and willful. I dare to say anything and that's why I made you and Mr. Jiang unhappy..."

Ye Nianen supported him and explained with a worried look: "I'm sorry, my sister is simple-minded and speaks directly. I apologize for her. I hope Mr. Jiang and Mr. Jiang can forgive me."

She bent down slightly to apologize on Chajiu's behalf.

As Cha Jiu's biological brother, Ye Zhiyuan stood aside and listened indifferently.

He also agreed that the Ye family pampered Cha Jiu so much that they made her empty-headed and make a fool of herself in public.

Under the background of the gentle and polite Ye Nianen, the people around him looked at Cha Jiu with even more contempt.

Simple and direct, Ye Nianen used these two words to label Cha Jiu.

But the fiancée of the heir to the Jiang family should be smart, thoughtful, and well-rounded. She cannot be a money-worshiping girl with no brains and low emotional intelligence.

Cha Jiu turned his attention to Jiang Tingxu.

She wondered how he would respond.

This will determine her judgment of him and how she approaches him next.

The words of Father Ye and Ye Nianen did not make Jiang Tingxu look down on Cha Jiu, but made him clearly see her difficult situation in the Ye family.

No wonder she said she had nothing.

No one in the Ye family loves her at all.

Poor kid.

Jiang Tingxu returned Chajiu's look with faint sympathy.

Chajiu frowned and complained to the system: "Why do I feel that he is pitying me?"

System: "Except for the feeling, he is pitying you. His favorability towards you now is 30.00%."

Cha Jiu was surprised: "So high!"

System: "Jiang Tingxu is always a person who enjoys grudges. He attaches great importance to Mrs. Ye's righteous deeds, so he also has feelings for you. Another point is that your innocent and brainless character is played very well."

Chajiu's eyes were strange: "Does he like this one?"

After analyzing Jiang Tingxu's personality, the system came to a conclusion: "He likes simple people."

Cha Jiu was thoughtful.

"There is nothing wrong with being straightforward. On the contrary, people who are oblique and have evil intentions are annoying." Jiang Ting seemed to have something to say in his preface.

The perfect smile on Ye Nianen's face was a little stiff.

"Let's go." After supporting Cha Jiu, Jiang Tingxu closed his eyes slightly, as if he was a little tired of these shady schemes.

The bodyguard pushed his wheelchair toward the car in the distance.

Jiang Chen stood up from the ground and looked at Chajiu in disgust: "No wonder you agreed so readily that day. It turned out to be just for today."

"Ye Qinghuan, even if I can't become the heir to the Jiang family, I won't marry someone like you." He put down his harsh words and said, "I don't want to look at you again in my life."

Cha Jiu tilted her head to look at him, and finally a mocking smile appeared on her lips: "This is not easy to say."

Jiang Chen was very vigilant this time: "What do you want to do again?"

Chajiu didn't answer him. She picked up the handkerchief from the ground and ran directly towards Jiang Tingxu's car.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Jiang Tingxu turned around and saw Cha Jiu trotting up to him, holding her knees and panting.

"What's wrong?" he asked patiently.

"I apologize to you for what happened just now."

Chajiu clenched the dirty handkerchief tightly in her hand, as if she was still ashamed of the act of knocking off the handkerchief and offending Jiang Tingxu just now.

"It doesn't matter. I can understand the loss of a loved one's emotions." Jiang Tingxu said.

"I...can I have your contact information?"

Cha Jiu asked hesitantly.
