The Qin family insisted on having Old Master Jiang over in person before they would admit to the annulment. However, Old Master Jiang was such a proud person. How could he personally go to the Qin family to break off the engagement?
"Uncle, Auntie, have you considered it?" When Jiang Tao came to the Qin family again, he seemed a little aggressive.
If it was in the past, Jiang Tao might have given some face to the Qin family. But ever since he knew that this vicious woman, Qin Yan, wanted to hurt Xiao Lingyu, he had shed all pretenses of politeness.
Moreover, the Qin family's actions were too disgusting. They knew what kind of person their daughter was like, but they wanted to force her onto him.
Qin Xingbao's expression was gloomy as he said, "Jiang Tao, I said that unless the old man personally appears, we will not break off this marriage."
In any case, all he needed was to buy time.
Jiang Tao's sharp gaze landed on his face. He nodded with a cold and predictable expression and said, "Alright, in that case, don't blame me for being impolite."
This time, Qin Junfeng was also at home.
When he heard Jiang Tao's words, his brows immediately twitched. He had a very bad premonition.
He frowned and asked, "What do you want to
do?!
Jiang Tao only said, "You'll know when the time comes."
Qin Junfeng's intuition told him that what Jiang Tao would do could really break the Qin Family.
Qin Junfeng thought for a moment and said, "Young Master Jiang, please wait here for a while. I'll discuss it with my parents."
Jiang Tao nodded.
Qin Junfeng pulled his parents to the bedroom.
Madam Qin's expression was very ugly as she said, "Feng 'Er, what is it?"
Qin Junfeng thought for a moment and said, "Dad, Mom, I think it's best for us to agree to the annulment."
"On what basis?" Madam Qin immediately refused without thinking, "Qin Junfeng, do you know how much of a blow it is to your sister to cancel the marriage? It's equivalent to throwing your sister's reputation to the ground and trampling it to pieces."
Qin Xingbao also frowned and was dissatisfied with this decision. He said sharply, "Qin Junfeng, you should know that we don't want to cancel the marriage because we want to buy time to save your sister's reputation. If we cancel the marriage now, it will undoubtedly make your sister's reputation worse."
Qin Junfeng shook his head and said, "Dad, Mom, have you forgotten about the relationship between Gong Tianhao and Jiang Tao?"
The Qin couple was stunned. They looked at each other and then looked at their son with confusion.
Madam Qin asked directly, "Who in the entire capital doesn't know that Gong Tianhao and Jiang Tao are good friends and brothers? But, what does that have to do with the engagement?"
Qin Junfeng said very calmly, "Jiang Tao told us that both of our families had offended the Gong Family. However, the master of the Gong Family is now Gong Tianhao. With the relationship between Jiang Tao and Gong Tianhao, even if the Jiang family has offended Gong Tianhao, it can be easily resolved."
OV
Qin Xingbao knitted his brows tightly and asked, "So?"
"Sister's photos are still trending. We all know that this is Gong Tianhao's doing. As long as he doesn't say anything, sister's photos will always be there. Naturally, her reputation... So, the only way for sister's photos to be withdrawn is for Gong Tianhao to do something. Now, we have the perfect opportunity."
Then, Qin Xingbao said, "Feng 'Er, just say what you want to say."
Qin Junfeng said, "If Jiang Tao wants to break off the engagement, then get him to get Gong Tianhao to take down Sister's photos. Once that is done, we can start manipulating the internet again."
Qin Xingbao's eyes lit up when he heard that. He said, "Yes, Feng 'Er, you're right!"
Jiang Tao, who was waiting in the living room, was very calm.
The Qin family had to withdraw from this engagement. They had no choice. Jiang Tao was tired of being the good guy anymore.
Soon, the three members of the Qin Family returned. When Jiang Tao saw them come out, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Uncle, it seems that you have already considered the annulment carefully?"
Qin Xingbao went straight to the point and said, "Son, we can agree to the annulment once Gong Tianhao removes Yan Er's photos from the internet. This request isn't too much, right?"
When Jiang Tao heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly and revealed a sarcastic smile. He said, "Uncle, how is the annulment related to Gong Tianhao?"
At this moment, Madam Qin was instantly enraged and shocked. She said loudly, "How is it not related? If Gong Tianhao wasn't so disgusting and targeted my Yan 'Er, would my Yan 'Er suffer so miserably?"
When Jiang Tao heard this, his expression changed, and he said with a gloomy and sharp voice, "Madam Qin, have you forgotten something? If it weren't for Qin Yan's vicious heart and her intention to harm Gong Tianhao's lover, do you think Tianhao is so free to target Qin Yan?"
Madam Qin's face was flushed red from the rebuke. She spat out her anger and gritted her teeth as she said, "He must be bewitched by that slut that appeared out of nowhere to do this to my Yan 'Er!"
"Madam Qin!" Jiang Tao's voice was cold and harsh with a strong warning. Hearing the words "slut", a wave of anger rose in his heart.
'The Qin Family is really retarded. Qin Yan is engaged to me, but she is coveting my good brother, Gong Tianhao.
'It was Qin Yan who did something wrong, but now she blamed the innocent Xiao Lingyu.'
Jiang Tao said coldly, "Madam Qin, anyone who does something wrong must pay the price. Do I have to remind you why Qin Yan used my grandfather's hand to kill an innocent woman?
"She was jealous of her because she coveted Gong Tianhao. When she did try to kill an innocent woman, did she forget that she was already my fiancee? Where did she place me?"
After Jiang Tao exposed the bloody truth, the faces of the three members of the Qin family alternated between green and purple.
"Back then, I met with her, asking her to break off the engagement at the start to spare her reputation. But what did she tell me? She said she couldn't because she liked me.
"In that case, explain to me what has happened after that? Was she lying to me? Do you think I'm really a big fool?" Jiang Tao really didn't give them any face at all. The comment by Madam Qin of Xiao Lingyu being a slut had triggered him.
The three members of the Qin family were embarrassed and angry at Jiang Tao's words. They felt extremely humiliated.
"So, you have no right to negotiate this annulment." Jiang Tao said very strongly, "I'll leave it at that. If you accept the annulment now, everyone will be happy. But if you force me, then both families will lose face."
The faces of the three members of the Qin family were so angry that they turned green, red, and white.
"Then annul it!" At this time, Qin Yan, who had been eavesdropping outside, ran in aggressively. She was very angry, and her gaze was filled with hatred as she glared at Jiang Tao and roared angrily, "Jiang Tao, who do you think you are? You think you are the eldest young master of the Jiang Family, but in reality, you are just a heartless dog raised by Jiang Huaiyuan. Who in the capital circle doesn't know that? Everyone knows you're just a kept dog!"
"Qin Yan!" Qin Junfeng's expression suddenly became serious and stern. He said, "Apologize to eldest young master Jiang now!"
Old Master Jiang was very strict with Jiang Tao, but he definitely wasn't treating Jiang Tao like a dog as the rumors in the capital said.
Even if he treated Jiang Tao like a dog, it wasn't something that Qin Yan could say.
Qin Yan's expression was stern and stubborn. She wasn't going to apologize. Since her disguise was off, Qin Yan couldn't be bothered to pretend anymore. After all, her reputation had already been ruined.
"You!" Qin Junfeng looked at his stubborn sister. His face was filled with gloom, sharpness, and dissatisfaction.
They were there to clean up her mess but there she was, creating more mess for them.
How could he not realize his sister was so vicious and crazy? If he had let Qin Yan continue like this, the reputation of the Qin family would be completely destroyed by her.
Qin Yan pointed at Jiang Tao and scolded him, making Qin Xingbao unusually embarrassed. However, he didn't lose his mind like his daughter.
He looked at Jiang Tao with an embarrassed expression and said, "Son, Yan 'Er has been too traumatized recently. Her brain is a little unclear. You are a magnanimous person. Please, forgive her, okay?"Then, he looked at Qin Yan with a gloomy expression and said sternly, "Apologize to Young Master Jiang!"
Qin Yan pursed her lips tightly and said stubbornly, "What I said is the truth. Why should I apologize to him? Jiang Tao, didn't you want to break off the engagement?
"Fine, break it off! Do you think I want to marry you that much? If you weren't the young master of the Jiang family and the Jiang family's heir appointed by Old Man Jiang, and most importantly, if you weren't on good terms with Gong Tianhao, I wouldn't have been willing to get engaged with you."
The three members of the Qin family immediately felt that Qin Yan had gone mad!
"Slap!"
Qin Junfeng went forward and slapped Qin Yan.
He said angrily, "Qin Yan, if you weren't born in the Qin family, do you think you'dget engaged to the heir of the Jiang Family?
"If you were not the daughter of the Qin Family, do you think you would have the chance to know Young Master Jiang? Who are you to mock him?"
Qin Junfeng was a man who was very scheming and had a long view.
He was the heir of the Qin family. The first thing he had to think about now was the future of the Qin family.
No matter what status Jiang Tao had now, he was going to run the Jiang Family in the future. He was also good friends with Gong Tianhao.
If they offended the Gong family and the Jiang family at the same time, the Qin family would be attacked by both families at the same time. The Qin Family would be in a rough spot. Qin Yan really wanted to bring the Qin Family to its death.
Qin Junfeng looked at the cold and calm expression on Jiang Tao's face. However, he noticed there was anger hidden in his eyes. Therefore, he took the opportunity before Jiang Tao lost his temper to teach Qin Yan a lesson.
However, just as the Qin family members saw, Qin Yan had completely gone mad.
What she wanted now was revenge. She wanted to take revenge on those who had wronged her.
Qin Yan covered her face that had been slapped. Her eyes were spitting fire as she glared at Qin Junfeng. She said in disbelief, "Brother, how dare you hit me? What right do you have to hit me? Is it because I have a bad reputation now? It has affected the Qin Family's reputation, and it has affected you, right? I no longer have any value. You also can't wait for me to disappear, right?"
When she said these words, it was obvious that she was filled with deep resentment.
The Qin couple, "..." Qin Junfeng, "..."
Crazy, crazy. Yan 'Er was really crazy.
Otherwise, why would she say such hurtful words?
Jiang Tao looked coldly at this family of four. The corners of his mouth revealed a faintly mocking smile. He stood up and said coldly, "Since the eldest daughter of the Qin family has already promised to break off the engagement, then it's done. I'll leave so that your family can deal with your internal matters."
After saying that, he calmly left.
When he passed in front of Qin Yan, he deliberately stopped and faced forward. He coldly spat out two words, "Crazy woman!"
Qin Yan had lost her marbles, so he didn't want to lower himself to argue with her.
When they heard Jiang Tao call Qin Yan a madwoman, the expressions of the Qin family members, including Qin Yan, instantly changed.
