Chapter 6 white eyed wolf

Qiao Yitang stopped in her tracks and slowly turned her head back. She didn't think Jiang Yihuan had anything important to say, but she still wanted to hear what trick she was planning this time.Jiang Yihuan's tone softened considerably, but she still didn't want to give Qiao Yitang a friendly look. She tilted her head back and said, "I want to attend the Xie family's banquet. Get me an invitation.""The Xie family?" Qiao Yitang pondered for a moment, recalling that Song Zhi had mentioned the Xie family's upcoming banquet just yesterday.Seeing that she didn't refuse immediately, Fang Zhiqiu quickly added, "This is the first time Xie Chengyan will publicly appear. He's 30 now, and if someone catches his eye at the banquet..." Fang Zhiqiu said this with satisfaction, as if Jiang Yihuan would definitely be chosen as the future wife of the wealthy Xie family once she attended the banquet.Qiao Yitang thought to herself that they were just daydreaming. Even though she had never met Xie Chengyan, Qiao Yitang knew someone like him wouldn't be interested in Jiang Yihuan. She coldly replied, "I can't get the invitation. I can't help you with this."Jiang Yihuan instantly flared up, "The He family can definitely get an invitation. Just say a word to He Jingchuan, and I'll be able to get in." "You won't even help with such a small favor. I see you've really forgotten all the nurturing grace our family gave you!"Qiao Yitang repeated indifferently, "I've already broken up with He Jingchuan."Jiang Yihuan didn't believe that Qiao Yitang had actually broken up with He Jingchuan. She thought it was just a temporary conflict and that Qiao Yitang could still speak to him. "You still have a good friend, right? The Song family is also a prominent family in Jing City. Let Song Zhi help me get the invitation!"Qiao Yitang's voice turned cold. "I can't do that." It wouldn't be hard for Song Zhi to get another invitation, but Qiao Yitang simply didn't want to help.The entire Jiang family became anxious. With their status, it was impossible to get an invitation to the Xie family's banquet. The only solution was to rely on Qiao Yitang. If Qiao Yitang didn't help, it would be even harder for Jiang Yihuan to attend the Xie family's banquet.Fang Zhiqiu knew she couldn't anger Qiao Yitang at this point, so she quickly stepped forward and grabbed her hand. "Yitang, your sister is so beautiful. If she performs well at the Xie Chengyan's banquet and becomes the Xie family's young mistress, you'll benefit too."Qiao Yitang couldn't help but sneer. "You think anyone can catch the eye of the Xie family's crown prince?""You!" Jiang Yihuan stomped her foot in anger. "You have no abilities, and your friend has no abilities either. You can't even get an invitation!"This kind of taunt didn't affect Qiao Yitang. She deliberately followed Jiang Yihuan's words, "Yes, I have no ability, and Song Zhi has no ability. We can't get an invitation. You'd better find someone else."She was about to leave when Jiang Changzheng stood up from the sofa. "It's just one invitation, why do you need to beg so many people? I remember when your father was alive, he had a good relationship with the old man of the Xie family. Not to mention one invitation, there was nothing we couldn't do."Mentioning her father made Qiao Yitang's expression darken. "Earlier, you said that the Qiao family has fallen, and that others look down on me. Now you want to use my father's connections?""This…" Jiang Changzheng was momentarily speechless.Qiao Yitang shook her head lightly. "I've already helped you all enough. I really can't help with this."Seeing that she was about to leave, Jiang Yihuan anxiously shouted, "What have you helped with? You've eaten and drank from us for so many years, and now when we need you, you won't even help with something small. You're such an ungrateful, heartless wolf!"Qiao Yitang originally didn't want to keep arguing, but after Jiang Yihuan and Fang Zhiqiu repeatedly mentioned the grace of nurturing, she wasn't someone who would take it lying down. She strode inside and sat right in the middle of the sofa."Since you keep bringing up the grace of nurturing, let's have a proper talk today." "Last year, Jiang's company almost went bankrupt. If I hadn't asked He Jingchuan for help, the house you're living in would've been auctioned off by now."As she spoke, Qiao Yitang looked up at the crystal chandelier hanging high above, worth millions. If it weren't for her, how could the Jiang family be able to afford such an expensive house?"Also, last month, Jiang Qingan's girlfriend got into my studio because of my connections. In the first week, she broke a vase worth hundreds of thousands in the boss's office, and spoke rudely to the colleagues, causing me to apologize repeatedly. Have you forgotten about this?" "There are countless similar incidents. I've already helped you all so much over the years."At this moment, Qiao Yitang sat on the sofa, while the others stood in front of her. She looked like a boss, and the others were like employees listening to a reprimand.The Jiang family felt embarrassed. Although they knew Qiao Yitang was right, they still couldn't stand her high - and - mighty attitude.Jiang Qingan, who had been silent until now, muttered, "You owe our family. Isn't all of this what you're supposed to do?"Qiao Yitang's sharp gaze swept over, causing Jiang Qingan to shrink his neck. He then stepped forward and arrogantly glared at Qiao Yitang, as if saying, "What can you do about it?"Qiao Yitang slowly closed her eyes, then reopened them. Her voice was slightly choked with anger. "Before my parents passed away, the Qiao family's business was one of the top in Jing City, even more powerful than the He family." "I was the only heir, but at that time I was just an eight - year - old child. You took me in, and so you also took over the company."When Qiao Yitang's parents passed away unexpectedly, Jiang Changzheng quickly took over the Qiao family's company. But he wasn't very capable, and under his management, the Qiao family's company gradually declined, almost reaching bankruptcy in just a few years. In the end, they had no choice but to sell the company to foreigners. Jiang Changzheng took the money and started a small company, which he now manages. After this, all of the inheritance left by Qiao Yitang's parents was squandered.Qiao Yitang tried to suppress her rising anger and said, "Back then, I was too young. You all lied to me, saying the company was going bankrupt, and sold it for just a few hundred thousand. You even said that the money wasn't enough to cover the costs of raising me over the years." "But do you really think I'm stupid? The Qiao family's company was so large, and so many people were eyeing it. How could it have been sold for just a few hundred thousand?" "Do you really not know what's been funding your extravagant spending over the years?"Qiao Yitang paused and then laughed in anger. "Instead of saying you've nurtured me, it's more like I've been supporting you." "It's precisely because I still remember the so - called grace of nurturing that I haven't torn my face with you all. If you don't care about face, I can also take back everything that belongs to me!"Qiao Yitang's words were firm and decisive. After she finished speaking, the entire villa fell into an eerie silence. The previously aggressive Jiang family members couldn't say a word.Qiao Yitang's gaze swept over the four of them, and seeing their slightly stunned and surprised expressions, she stood up and walked toward the door. Without any hesitation, she left the Jiang family's house.
