Chapter 444: Snow on the Desk of the Infatuated Alliance Leader (46)
Jiang Yide just paused, his expression remained unchanged.
"Yes, Madam, if it weren't for the great help from my father-in-law, Jinghong Villa would not have been built."
Liu Yun said: "Then open the road to the back mountain."
Jiang Yide advised earnestly: "Madam, why are you in such a hurry to leave? It is really unsafe to go down the mountain now."
"You...really don't want to let me go?"
"I didn't mean to stop you, ma'am, but it's not very convenient these days."
"..."
Liu Yun suppressed his anger and sneered.
"I've checked it out."
Jiang Yide didn't seem to understand: "What?"
"The incident at Muchun Villa back then was really related to you, right?"
"..."
Jiang Yide's expression changed only for a moment, and he still asked in a gentle voice, "Madam, why do you say that?"
Liu Yun stared at him for a few seconds before she said, "Jiang Yide, you are so good at pretending. I have never felt that you are so hypocritical."
"I really believed all your words in the past. I was willing to help you manage the villa and accompany you to do charity. In the end, you just wanted the position of leader, right?"
"People like you are terrible. I want to take Chuchu away too. I can't let her live with you."
Jiang Yide was silent for a moment, and his voice became a little colder.
"Madam, if you want to leave, you can't take Chuchu with you. Chuchu is my daughter. She has been carefully raised in the villa since she was a child. How can she get used to a different living environment?"
Hearing this, Liu Yun couldn't help but sneer: "You really are... Rather than letting Chuchu adapt to a different environment and suffer some hardships, I won't let her continue to live here. People like you will only teach Chuchu bad things, just like teaching Xiaoyu..."
Jiang Yide frowned, "Madam, ask yourself, how do I treat Chuchu on a daily basis? If she wants the stars, I will definitely pick the moon for her. Langyu is not our biological son, so the way we discipline him is naturally different. He is different from Chuchu. You have never treated him as your own son, so how can you accuse me of not teaching him well?"
Liu Yun didn't want to look at this person anymore. She walked out from under the umbrella and waved for the servant to come over.
"I'm different from you."
Adopted children are naturally different from biological children.
But at least she never treated her adopted son harshly, and treated him equally both in public and in private.
But Jiang Yide only does superficial work in front of Chuchu and is too lazy to act in private. On the surface, he treats Xiaoyu as his adopted son, but in fact he is just training him as a handy subordinate.
In fact, she was not very satisfied with Xiaoyu's current willful character due to his upbringing. However, no matter what Xiaoyu's temper was, he was always very good to Chuchu and never said anything he shouldn't say in front of Chuchu. He really did what a brother should do, so she just turned a blind eye.
After all, he is not my biological child, and too much discipline would probably make him annoying.
She thought she had done what a stepmother should do, so how could she be the same as Jiang Yide?
Jiang Yide sighed and shook his head: "What's the difference? Madam, you have a habit of naming your servants with a small character, such as Xiaotang, the personal maid you chose for Chuchu, or Xiaoliang, your attendant. If they are different, why do you often call Jiang Langyu Xiaoyu?"
"I……"
Liu Yun was suddenly speechless. She didn't realize this...
But it's just a name, what does it represent?
She treated her adopted son well enough.
At this time, Liu Yun's attendant had already brought another umbrella.
Liu Yun walked under the attendant's umbrella, turned around and warned: "Chu Chu must come with me. Either I take her away, or my family will come to pick us up! Jiang Yide, my Liu family is not in decline yet, don't think of suppressing me."
"..."
Jiang Yide stood there, looking at Liu Yun's back, his eyes gradually becoming gloomy.
He put down the umbrella in his hand, and the servant behind him hurried forward to take it.
"What did she find out?" Jiang Yide asked coldly.
The servant bowed his head and said, "Master, the lady has been staying in her own courtyard recently. Only the young lady often comes in and out. Maybe it's just the lady's guess."
"guess?"
Jiang Yide shook his sleeves and walked forward with his hands behind his back.
"Madam wouldn't cheat for no reason. She must have discovered something. Keep watching."
"Yes."
The servant followed Jiang Yide and said, "Master, the lady seems to be determined to leave. If someone from the Liu family really comes..."
Jiang Yide didn't care: "How can a message come if it can't be received?"
The servant understood: "Yes."
The Liu family is engaged in business, and the chamber of commerce founded by the head of the Liu family is spread all over the place, with countless businesses such as money houses and pawnshops.
In addition to countless wealth, the Liu family is also connected to royal relatives and nobles.
Jiang Yide had tried his best to please the head of the Liu family, only then did he agree to let Liu Yun marry far away.
Liu Yun was considered to be marrying down, and nine out of ten of the dowry she brought was invested in Jinghong Villa.
The Liu family also brought many conveniences to Jinghong Villa.
It is no exaggeration to say that Jinghong Villa was able to stand up with the support of the Liu family.
"The Liu family..."
Jiang Yide's face was cold and hard.
Liu Yun's words today did stimulate Jiang Yide to some extent.
Ever since he became the owner of the manor, he has been maintaining his own image in every way and never let others know how he made his fortune.
Only his wife knows.
Madam used to be self-centered, but now...
Jiang Yide returned to the yard with a sullen face.
Because Songtaoju was destroyed, he could only find another suitable courtyard to live in, and he no longer arranged for secret guards to keep a close eye on his residence day and night.
The people are gone and the things are burned, so what is there to stare at?
As Jiang Yide stepped into his room, a scent of perfumed powder passed over his nose.
A graceful figure in a white silk dress slowly approached. Her face was covered with a silk scarf, but her exposed eyebrows and eyes were clear and lively.
Jiang Yide was in a trance for a moment, and seemed to see the woman who had made him fall in love at first sight.
But the next second, he came back to his senses.
Jiang Yide stared at the woman's eyes and asked, "Who are you? Who let you in?"
The woman said softly, "I heard that the owner of the manor has been very busy recently and has a hard time managing the affairs of the manor, so I want to perform a dance for the owner of the manor, hoping to relieve his fatigue, temporarily unload his burden, and relax for a while."
"..."
Jiang Yide suddenly pulled off the scarf on the woman's face, and when he saw the face underneath the scarf, his expression suddenly became much uglier.
"Dong Shi Xiao frowns."
The woman froze.
Jiang Yide threw away the scarf and said in a gloomy voice: "Tell me, who asked you to come?!"
The woman looked panicked and knelt on the ground.
"Yes... it was Young Master's order..."
Jiang Yide gritted his teeth and said, "Jiang Langyu!"
