The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 64

Chapter 64: Chapter 64

Jiang Guosheng had just stepped out of the milk tea shop when Jiang Weiwei’s phone call came through.

As soon as the call connected, Jiang Weiwei’s sweet and engaging voice came through from the other end of the phone.

"Dad, did Moxi agree? Sorry, my piano lesson this morning was scheduled last minute, and I didn’t expect you to invite me to go see Moxi."

Yes, when Jiang Guosheng came to find Jiang Moxi in the morning, he had suggested that Jiang Weiwei come along.

But Jiang Weiwei had always been afraid that her schoolmates would know about her and Jiang Moxi’s relationship, even more afraid that people would find out it was Jiang Moxi who was the real rich girl, while she was just a counterfeit!

So during school days, even if she ran into Jiang Moxi face-to-face, she would never greet her.

Fortunately, it seemed Jiang Moxi wasn’t close to her either.

Whether at school or at home, as long as Jiang Weiwei didn’t initiate conversation, Jiang Moxi usually ignored her.

Because of this, not many people at their schools were aware of their relationship.

Jiang Weiwei was still the rich girl among students at both schools, possessing beauty and talent, cherished by everyone.

All this was a status she maintained through countless efforts.

If she went with Jiang Guosheng to find Jiang Moxi and was seen by people at school, all her previous efforts would have been in vain.

So, she had used the excuse of an immediate piano lesson to dismiss Jiang Guosheng.

It was just that now, she worried Jiang Guosheng might blame her, which is why she made this call.

"It’s alright, dad knows you are preparing for Mr. Jhiang Heting’s piano competition. Just focus on your practices, Moxi has already agreed."

Jiang Guosheng was still hoping that Jiang Weiwei could outperform Jiang Yuqing and win the championship in Jhiang Heting’s grand piano competition, to bring honor to them!

But Jiang Weiwei’s focus was at the very end of Jiang Guosheng’s words: "Moxi... agreed?"

She had thought that after the last quarrel between Jiang Moxi and Jiang Guosheng, Yu Man, and with her decisive departure, she would never step into the Jiang Family home again!

But just a few days had passed?

Like a leech, seizing the opportunity to cling back!

Jiang Moxi must have returned for the Jiang Family’s wealth, truly greedy!

Because of this news, Jiang Weiwei was in a bad mood for the rest of the day.

She didn’t expect that when she got home, she overheard Jiang Guosheng and Yu Man talking.

"She’s working at a milk tea shop now? I said it was all in vain. Even if she successfully schemed against Third Master Fu, she still didn’t marry into the Fu Family, posing no threat to Weiwei!"

Yu Man’s tone was harsh, sounding dismissive of Jiang Moxi, but her words carried an extra trace of irritation.

Jiang Guosheng had lost his usual smile and gentle demeanor, taking on a more serious tone.

"Keep those words within the house, don’t talk about it outside. Moxi is still our biological daughter, and having an abortion while unwed isn’t exactly something honorable."

Seeing Jiang Guosheng about to get angry, Yu Man toned down a bit.

"I know, and I’m also worried that her doing such shady things might infuriate Third Master Fu, and implicate our whole family!"

"It shouldn’t provoke him, just keep things low-profile."

Jiang Guosheng seemed to recall something, then continued, "Go and arrange a new bank card for Moxi, and continue giving her the regular amount of pocket money each month."

"Why should we give her pocket money when she’s done such disgraceful things?"

Yu Man genuinely thought that every penny spent on Jiang Moxi now was a waste.

But Jiang Guosheng angrily scolded, "As a mother, can’t you care more for her? She’s only so young, now she has to go to school and also work part-time to earn tuition fees, it would be strange if she doesn’t deviate from the right path!"

Yu Man could only sheepishly respond: "You can’t completely blame me for this, she clearly has a mouth but she won’t even ask for tuition fees, whose fault can that be?"

Jiang Guosheng also felt the fault was on Jiang Moxi’s part, thus he didn’t argue further and directly said, "Anyway, just remember to give her some pocket money every month."

"Understood." Just as Yu Man spoke, she saw Jiang Weiwei who had just entered the home and quickly smiled to greet her.

"Weiwei, finished with piano lessons? Are you tired? Mom just had someone make a pot of bird’s nest soup for you; eat it before you go upstairs to rest."

Jiang Weiwei smiled at Yu Man and said, "Thank you, mom, you are really good to me!"

But in her heart, she cursed the two: These idiots, even though Jiang Moxi had an "abortion out of wedlock", they still acknowledge her and even want to give her pocket money, are they sick in the head!

Just wait and see, she will definitely use the opportunity to study at the National Security Department and participate in Jhiang Heting’s piano master class to become famous!

Then, these two fools will realize who their best choice is.

Yuan Zhou, acting cowardly, had waited a while without seeing Si Lin show up, and worried, he decided to go to the Si Family to find him.

Unexpectedly, he saw Si Lin’s private doctor setting his bones, Si Lin was hysterical with pain, sweating profusely.

Apart from other parts that needed setting, Yuan Zhou also noticed varying degrees of bruises on Si Lin’s body.

"Young Master Si, how did you end up like this?" Yuan Zhou was completely astonished.

The last time they met, Si Lin was fine.

How did he turn into this ghastly state overnight?

He couldn’t help muttering, "Could it really be as Jiang Moxi mentioned?"

This statement seemed to hit a nerve in Si Lin; his handsome mixed-race face instantly turned sinister and frightening.

"What did she say?"

Yuan Zhou, also frightened by Si Lin’s daunting demeanor, hurriedly told him what Jiang Moxi said about him being beaten with a sack over his head.

But after hearing this, Si Lin gritted his teeth and seethed, "Jiang Moxi!"

So, the person who instructed others to put a sack over his head and beat him was Jiang Moxi!

The reason he didn’t think it was Jiang Moxi herself who beat him up was twofold.

Firstly, there were two people at the time, one distracted the bodyguards allowing the other to savagely attack him, Si Lin!

Secondly, although Si Ruo said Jiang Moxi knew some Kung Fu, Si Lin felt it was just some fancy moves, enough to handle the thugs Si Ruo found, but absolutely not able to take him down, a skilled Kung Fu practitioner, without any resistance!

He had thought before that Jiang Moxi had just escaped and someone else had hit him.

But the information in Yuan Zhou’s words gave Si Lin clarity that Jiang Moxi and his attacker were in cahoots!

She dared to instruct someone to hit him?

Si Lin, infuriated, swept all the items from the table onto the floor, his face ferocious!

"This vengeance, I must avenge!"

Late at night, after finishing her part-time job at Night Color, Jiang Moxi got back to Tianqin Bay and had just taken a shower when she received a video call from Fu Youhan.

Looking at his flawless handsome face and those deep eyes on the phone screen, a slight uneasiness flickered through Jiang Moxi’s eyes.
