Chapter 828  Lost This Round

"I thought as much," Li Jing voiced. "Then again, if I choose not to lean on my maternal family, I have my darling husband." The dark glint in her eyes shone brightly. "I'd hate to have you suffer the way I suffered in the past, and then I won't put a stop to it since I am not considered part of the family."

The smug smile on her lips caught Li Xiu's eyes. The latter wished to have it slapped off Li Jing's face, but there was nothing she could do at this moment.

Enraging the Lin family's granddaughter and heir was not on her wish list. Her father would make her life a living hell for it.

"Jing." Li Chun cleared his throat, drawing attention to himself.

His wife and daughter had made a grave mistake. Now that Li Jing wasn't backing down, all he had to do was fix things.

"Forgive your elder sister."

"She is not my sister," she corrected, folding her hands in front of her chest. A soft smile found its way to his eyes. It was a facade. That wasn't genuine. Not after the whole situation that played before them.

"Yes, biologically, yes but you two shared a childhood together and grew up—"

"That I know," she cut in. "Can we change the subject already? It's becoming a bore. I am sure none of the people in this room wish to be associated with me. I won't force it either."

"You see!" Ding Jiaying fumed, turning on her heels to face her husband. '"Rather than put her in her place, you are stoking her ego." Follow current s on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

There it was. The same plan Li Jing had. Ever since she came to this house and met the mother-daughter duo, she knew her interrogation of her foster father would be ruined. Furthermore, she either wanted him alone or needed the house to be clear to make her findings. She needed to check. To make sure it was true. Ever since she arrived at the Li resident as a child, she never saw this car that was mentioned but the plate number…

Turning her head in her foster father's direction, she gave a smile as if telling him secretly that this was what she meant.

She gave one glance at both Jiaying and Li Xiu, a smug smile appearing on her lips briefly as she turned and made her exit.

That must have been a close call escape today, but next time she knew she had to make better plans, and this time, catch them off guard.

Li Chun may have taken her side out of fear today, but that doesn't mean he'd keep on doing so. Besides, she hated how skimming she was when she mimicked something Li Xiu would always do. She hated to be compared with that girl—that skank. Fishing for her phone from her pocket, Li Jing swiped it up, unlocking the screen and searched out a contact.

Once she found the name, she put a call across. A few seconds in, and the call connected. "Ma'am?"

"I need you to keep a close eye on the Li residence and it's family."

"Understood."

"And more importantly, I'll need an opening."

"Opening?" The voice asked, and his curiosity piqued.

"Yes. I'll let you know more later."

Once the call ended, she got into her car and drove off.

On the other hand, Ding Jiaying was seething with rage. Everything was wrong in more ways and when her eyes landed on her husband, she snickered, took her daughter's hand and stormed off.

But as soon as she got to the entrance of the living room, she paused, half turned to spare him a glance, and added, "I hope you enjoy your made-believe family because that girl would never be a Li. Get that into your thick skull and next time support your family, come what may."

She finished her words and looked at her daughter whose head hung low and almost facepalmed. However, she barely took a step when Li Chun's voice echoed, "And lose what is left of my company and family?"

He scoffed loudly. "I don't think so. You'll be delusional if you think I'll amount to ruin on your account or your daughter's."
