Chapter 724: Chapter 22: The Cannon Fodder Best Friend of the Tragic Romance Heroine (22)

"Jiang Lai is here!!"

Someone shouted, and everyone looked over.

The crowd even automatically made way, and many people stared at Jiang Lai like they were looking at a monkey in a zoo, full of curiosity.

After all, the online reviews weren’t great, and from Jiang Zhi’s description, some uninformed people instinctively thought Jiang Lai should be a useless, muddle-headed, lazy slob waiting to die.

But when someone recognized her, those uninformed who looked over were all shocked and amazed.

"She’s Jiang Lai?"

"Oh my gosh, she’s so pretty? So quiet and fair-skinned."

"She has such a scholarly air, doesn’t look like the greedy person Jiang Zhi described."

"You can’t judge a book by its cover, this saying isn’t always positive. Sometimes the better someone looks, the darker their heart!"

Jiang Lai walked expressionlessly to the entrance of the supermarket, looking at Jiang Zhi squatting under the eaves.

"You want this supermarket?"

"What do you mean? Is it just about a supermarket? Don’t forget, I’m Mom’s real son!

What are you? Raising you until college graduation is more than enough, and now for a house, you drove out Grandpa and Grandma, leaving this big family with nowhere to go, and you still want to take over the supermarket.

Where’s your face?!"

Wang Lili refused to back down.

"You’ve been selfish since you were little! You must have known you’re an illegitimate child a long time ago! Otherwise, why would you be such a greedy person, trying to scrape everything into your own bowl!"

The old lady wanted to show her strength, but the moment she saw Jiang Lai’s familiar eyes, she was immediately intimidated.

Her wound hadn’t healed yet, and she should have been resting in the hospital. But to support her grandson, she came out in this hot weather, and her wound hurt so much she could see stars. Facing Jiang Lai, she had no courage to deal with her.

So, the loudest were Jiang Zhi and Wang Lili.

Jiang Lai would say one sentence, and they would retort ten times.

However, Jiang Lai’s expression still didn’t change much.

She watched the camera getting closer, then turned her face to look at the reporter.

"Is this a live broadcast?"

The reporter instinctively blocked the camera, afraid Jiang Lai would damage their company’s property.

But Jiang Lai pushed her aside and pulled the camera to her face.

"Isn’t everyone curious about our family’s mess? Since Jiang Zhi is done talking, let me say a few words.

What I’m going to say next is all true, and if there’s any falsehood, Jiang Zhi can sue me for defamation.

Jiang Zhi graduated from a junior college and worked in a repair shop. Within a month, he stole parts from the factory and was detained for a year.

During this time, my mom spent fifty to sixty thousand to pull some strings, reducing his sentence to three months.

After he was released, he married Wang Lili. Before the marriage, my mom bought him a house in Qu Shui Blue Bay, worth over five million, and also bought a car for over two hundred thousand.

Wang Lili, my best friend, married my brother three days after they met, and had a child within eight months of marriage.

During her pregnancy, she used the child to coerce my mom into buying another house, with a down payment of three hundred thousand and a loan of one hundred thousand, and for two years, my mom has been paying the mortgage.

After that, my mom also bought Wang Lili a car.

She wasn’t satisfied with the eighteen-thousand-dollar Beijing Hyundai and, under the guise of helping my mom with accounting, she embezzled over twenty thousand in goods money and eventually bought an eighty-thousand-dollar car with a loan.

The car is now parked in the shopping center a street away from Fuli Plaza, the number is on the car, you can call it to see whose phone rings.

My mom hasn’t said a word about these, and she’s been covering for the missing goods, considering their burden of raising a child, she’s been regularly depositing money into their account for the house and car loans."
