Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Huaiyuan was startled, then smiled awkwardly. “Weiyi, didn’t you change your surname a few years ago?”
A few years ago, she did change her surname to Jiang but she had never admitted herself to be a Jiang!
“No, for the past twenty-one years, I have always borne the surname Zuo. I don’t have a father. When I was born, my father was dead.” She smiled faintly but hidden deep within was unmistakable pain.
She vowed to get back at the Jiang for her mother’s death and the humiliation she had suffered from since young.
“Mr. Jiang, I think you have remembered wrongly.”
Her words were a great blow to Jiang Huaiyuan!
He knew that Zuo Weiyi had always held a grudge against the Jiang family because of Zuo Qing’s death and hated him as a father.
However, he was still her father and this was a reality nobody could change, wasn’t it?
Looking at his daughter in front of him, Jiang Huaiyuan didn’t know what to say.
If he did not seize this opportunity, Jiang Group would have to change its name forever!
He had strived for decades, how could he hand over his company to others just like that?
“Mr. Shi!”
Just then, Jiang Tingmei who was standing beside her father, voiced out. She looked at Shi Yuting with avaricious eyes filled with deep admiration.
“Mr. Shi, I can vouch for that. She is indeed my father’s daughter, but…” She dragged the last word while shifting her vision to Zuo Weiyi and then returned to Shi Yuting’s handsome face. “She’s an illegitimate daughter! Maybe Mr. Shi doesn’t know yet that her mother seduced my father and had her.”
Jiang Tingmei was pleased with herself. She thought that once Shi Yuting knew of Zuo Weiyi’s true identity, he would definitely be contemptuous of Zuo Weiyi.
Upon hearing her words, Zuo Weiyi’s hands which were holding Shi Yuting’s tightened.Read more chapter on vipnovel
When her mother was alive, she had suffered from their humiliation. Now that she was dead, did they have to utter slander against her like this?
“Seduce?” Zuo Weiyi smirked and let out a cold laugh. She stared at Jiang Huaiyuan who was standing beside Jiang Tingmei. “Mr. Jiang, is it true that she seduced you?”
If making this public could prove her mother’s innocence and get rid of the humiliation she had suffered, then she would set things right today!
With her calling him to account, Jiang Huaiyuan hesitated and for a moment, he didn’t know how to react.
Although their voices were not loud, this was a public place. If he were to admit it was not Zuo Qing who seduced him but rather he who forced himself on her, how could he still keep a foothold in the business world?
If he didn’t admit now, how could he answer to his daughter who was currently doted upon by Shi Yuting?
He raised his head and looked at his daughter. “Weiyi, can we talk outside? This is…”
He put forth his request as he saw the crowd at the banquet.
“Dad, why must you go out? Just say it here.” Once she got to know that her father wanted to talk outside, Jiang Tingmei was anxious. She wanted everyone in the hall to know about Zuo Weiyi’s identity as an illegitimate daughter and despise her. This would give her great satisfaction.
Beside Jiang Tingmei stood her mother, Qiu Yun. She knew what exactly happened twenty-one years ago and did not utter a single word.
That year, it was Jiang Huaiyuan who forced Zuo Qing but being the arrogant wife, how could she live with it? Hence, all these years, she had taken the matter as Zuo Qing’s fault for seducing her husband!
