10 Shameless woman

In the Jing household.

Jing Junhai laughed. "This is not a joke, right?"

"If I wanted to joke, I would have stayed at the office rather than coming here." Jing Shuping said in a serious tone.

"But father, are you sure the news is true?" Jing Tian's voice was gentler than mellow coffee. "Could it be... Zhang Min did a mistake? I really look up to my elder sister. I can't imagine she would make such a blunder."

"Jing Tian, you are always fooled up by her. Her arrogance has no foundation other than her grandfather. Did you not see? She couldn't even complete her studies. Why do you still look up to her?" Jing Juanhai said harshly. Hate evident on his face.

The pair of siblings hated Jing Lihua due to her grandfather.

"She is not even trying to keep her actions hidden. The Tang enterprise failed in the last five projects. She used the last funds in the company and bought huge acres of those useless lands; Dry Creek Fields. This move is totally useless. What does she even want to do? Turn them into residential lots? How dense one can be? She doesn't have left enough resources to invest. The lands are far away from the city center so they are practically worthless. The owner of the real estate had been struggling to get rid of those lands at any price. But there wasn't a single buyer."

"I don't think Mr. Su would need Zhang Min to do anything. She'll soon end up bankrupting her own company." Jing Junhai laughed again. "How about this. We just sit and watch her making the great empire disappear?"

Jing Junhai was very satisfied. 'Since long she had been using her grandfather to suppress us. However, the reason behind her grandfather's power is that enterprise. Once she ends up ruining it, even if her grandfather supports her, her real backing would be lost. I would like to see how is she so arrogant then.'

"Don't underestimate her. She still has her grandfather behind her. The company as big as her's wouldn't fall in seconds."

Jing Shuping didn't hate his daughter for no reason. She reminded him of that woman who was an obstacle between him and Jing Tian's mother, He Zhoyan. Besides, she was just a weakling with no talent. At countless times, Jing Lihua had embarrassed the family in front of guests. And the most important thing was she always outshined precious Jing Tian. Jing Tian was from his true love so it was natural that he cherished her more.

"Once that woman loses her backing, I'll have you and Su Liwei married." Jing Shuping said with determination.

"Father... I feel bad for JieJie. Would she blame me for this?" Jing Tian looked sad.

"You don't need to feel bad for her. It has always been you, Su Liwei liked. She is the one who stole your lover from you." Jing Shuping felt disgusted when he remembered what had she done. "She clearly knew that you loved Su Liwei. Yet she still forced marriage to hurt you."

"I don't know what I did to make JieJie hate me. I've always tried my best to make her like me..."

Jing Shuping's heart pained when he saw his daughter crying. "You don't need to cry for that vixen." He patted her affectionately. "She doesn't deserve your kindness. After all, she has that woman's blood running through her veins. It is inevitable she would follow her lead. She is just jealous that you are more accomplished and liked than her. But instead of changing her vicious ways, she chose underhand tricks to suppress you."

"Xiao meimei, you don't need to worry." Jing Junhai couldn't bear his little sister crying. "As long as Su Liwei loves you, we'll find a way to get you two together. Everything would become perfect."

"That will happen soon. Su Liwei is true to you. He is trying his best to make Tang enterprise fall so that Jing Lihua loses her backing. He is doing it all for your sake so that you two can live together happily. I'm sure once the enterprise falls, he'll abandon her." Jing Shuping laughed. "I wonder where would she run to then? If she comes to me begging for shelter then I'll never accept her. If not for her grandfather, I would have already disowned her. But once she and her grandfather lose their power, I'll not give them any charity."

Under the tears, Jing Tian's eyes flashed with a sinister emotion momentarily before turning back to pitiful expressions.
