The Time-Limited Love and Marriage-Chapter 533

Jiang Guosheng saw the conversation had reached an impasse, so he hurriedly spoke up.

"Sorry, Old Master, my wife speaks without thinking, please don’t stoop to her level..."

With Yu Man playing bad cop, his playing good cop should make the negotiation smoother.

Yet he added, "But Moxi is indeed the bloodline of our Jiang Family, and the fact that her bones and sinews are connected to ours cannot be dismissed. Imagine, Moxi seeing our family in such a state would surely pain her heart."

"I cannot deny that your words and actions still influence Xixi’s mood. But as your lady has said, ’every man for himself, heaven and earth be damned.’ Seeing how you hurt Xixi, I can’t just stand aside and watch her foolishly sacrifice herself for you."

Old Master Feng’s words made Jiang Guosheng feel very uneasy.

"Do you want to wipe us out completely? No, Moxi wouldn’t agree to that."

Jiang Guosheng was so angry his face turned red and his neck swelled.

But Old Master Feng spoke indifferently, "If the child disagrees, she can be appeased. Just make sure none of you appear before her again and affect her mood."

Seeing that begging was futile, and perhaps even risking the future of the entire Jiang family, Yu Man nearly lost her reason and yelled at Old Master Feng.

"Who do you think you are? You’ve only adopted Moxi for a decade or so. If it wasn’t for you, old man, this child wouldn’t have such a huge rift with us. I know, you’re worried that with us around, Moxi won’t be close to you, so you suppress our family like this..."

No sooner had Yu Man started shouting than a crisp, cold female voice suddenly came from behind her, "How dare you!"

Yu Man and Jiang Guosheng turned around and saw Jiang Moxi standing behind them.

She was dressed in camouflage, holding a hunting rifle, her long hair draped casually over her shoulders, looking fierce and beautiful.

However, at this moment, Jiang Moxi’s gaze towards them was as cold as ice, without a trace of warmth, and it also carried an intimidating aura of ruthlessness.

Still, Yu Man didn’t take it seriously.

In her eyes, she was Jiang Moxi’s mother, and no matter how much they fought, she would always be closer to her than that wretched old man from the Feng family.

As Jiang Moxi approached her, Yu Man even said, "Moxi, good timing. Listen to this shameless old man, he wants to destroy our Jiang family..."

But before she could finish her rant, Jiang Moxi suddenly aimed the muzzle of her hunting rifle right at her forehead, pressing it hard against her brow, "Call my grandfather an ’old man’ again and see what happens!"

In that moment, Yu Man panicked.

"What are you trying to do? I am your mother, what’s wrong with me scolding him? If it wasn’t for this old man, we wouldn’t have this big a gap between us!"

Jiang Guosheng was also somewhat frightened of the hunting rifle, but he believed that Jiang Moxi, being his and Yu Man’s child, wouldn’t really shoot.

So he even ordered Jiang Moxi, "Put the gun down, don’t be disrespectful to your mother."

Only Old Master Feng was genuinely worried for Yu Man.

As she continued her senseless rant, Jiang Moxi emotionlessly loaded her gun and prepared to pull the trigger.

"No, Xixi! She is your mother!"

Old Master Feng felt compelled to scold.

Even though he thought Yu Man, who was hardly a mother, wouldn’t be pitied even in death,

he also understood that if Jiang Moxi really killed her own mother by accident, she would be in great pain, perhaps unable to forgive herself, and might even end her own life.

"Grandfather, she’s so wicked! If it weren’t for you and my brothers, I don’t know how many times I would have died by now. But not only does she lack gratitude, she believes you ruined my relationship with them. Such a malicious person truly does not deserve to live in this world."

Jiang Moxi hesitated to put down the gun, her eyes red as she spoke to Old Master Feng.

"Xixi, such people are not worthy of staining your hands! Listen to grandpa’s words, put down the gun."

While saying this, Old Master Feng personally moved forward to take the weapon from Jiang Moxi’s hands.

Under Old Master Feng’s persuasion, Jiang Moxi gradually loosened her grip on the hunting rifle.

After taking the gun, Old Master Feng quickly handed it to the butler: "Deal with this immediately."

The butler nodded and turned to handle it.

Yu Man did not realize that she had just narrowly escaped death when she saw the gun being taken away, she even thought it was all an act put on by Jiang Moxi and Old Master Feng.

She even cursed, "If you dare, shoot then; you even wanted to kill your mother, Jiang Moxi you..."

But Old Master Feng immediately shouted sternly: "Get out!"

Yu Man was still reluctant.

However, Jiang Guosheng knew that continuing this matter today would be fruitless, he quickly pulled the advancing Yu Man away and bade farewell to Old Master Feng.

What they didn’t know was that as they left, people within the Emperor City circle had already received a warning from Emperor City Feng Family, stating that anyone who cooperates with Jiang’s will henceforth be blacklisted by the Feng Family.

As a top figure in the Emperor City circle, Fu Weidong naturally received the news as the first thing.

"Feng Family wants to suppress the development of the Jiang Family in Emperor City, what is going on?" Fu Weidong was quite perplexed.

Fu Weidong knew that Miss Xi, who his son Fu Youhan loves, had done detailed investigations on Miss Xi after learning she was from the Feng Family.

So, he also understood that Miss Xi is the true heiress of Jiang’s, and that Jiang’s treatment towards Miss Xi has not been good.

But even though it wasn’t good, several years have already passed.

Moreover, Jiang’s as a whole moved to Emperor City, something which the Feng Family is also aware of, but they never opposed the Jiang Family before.

Why has there suddenly been this development at this moment to drive the Jiang Family out of Emperor City?

Unable to figure it out, Fu Weidong sent someone to inquire further from the Feng Family.

Upon inquiry, he was informed that Miss Xi’s parents had visited Old Master Feng today, which had incited Miss Xi to a sudden rage, and she even attempted to use the gun.

The housekeeper reported this news to Fu Weidong while Jiang Ran was nearby.

They had just seen Fu Youhan last night and understood that Fu Youhan currently did not dare to acknowledge them for fear of distressing Su Jingping.

They empathized with the pain of losing a child and appreciated Su Jingping’s meticulous upbringing of their son, hence they highly respected Fu Youhan’s decision.

However, Fu Youhan was still their son, and they naturally could not watch their prospective daughter-in-law being bullied.

Jiang Ran immediately asked Fu Weidong: "The Jiang family has offended our future daughter-in-law, shouldn’t our Fu Family make a statement?"

"Of course. Our daughter-in-law, naturally, cannot be bullied wantonly."

Fu Weidong nodded and immediately instructed the butler: "Spread the word in our circles immediately, tell everyone, if they dare continue collaborating with the Jiang Family, they will be our Fu Family’s sworn enemies. We will not only terminate all collaborations but will also crush any company that partners with Jiang’s!"

The butler immediately followed through.

The companies that received this news swiftly severed their ties with Jiang’s within the shortest possible time, even if it also meant significant losses, they spared no effort!
