Chapter 31: Cold-Blooded and Ruthless

Lin Yushuang was also somewhat moved by what her daughter said. Her daughter was right; the Xiao Family’s reputation wasn’t good, and it wouldn’t be good for Xiao Miaomiao either. She couldn’t just watch the Xiao Family decline.

Moreover, Xiao Lin was her biological father, and he had come to the door to ask for help in front of the Li family. She couldn’t refuse to help him; otherwise, she would be cold-blooded and ruthless. She thought that Xiao Miaomiao probably didn’t want the Li family to see her cold-blooded and ruthless side.

“I’ll go back and talk to your father. Hopefully, we can really use Xiao Miaomiao to climb up to the Li family. This way, our family might even rise to a higher level.” Lin Yushuang hadn’t expected that she would end up having to beg Xiao Miaomiao.

However, even though she was reluctant, she knew the seriousness of the situation. For her own future and the future of her children, she had to find a way to get on board the Li family’s ship.

“Yes, Xiao Miaomiao will definitely not let our Xiao Family create any scandals to secure her position in the Li family. We don’t need to worry about those compromising evidence; she will destroy them herself.” Xiao Yuyan said happily.

“You’re right. Our Yuyan is so smart.” Lin Yushuang agreed with her daughter.

Unfortunately, they miscalculated. Xiao Miaomiao was not afraid at all. After all, she had no connection with the Xiao Family. Even when it came to the marriage, the Li family had invited the Jiang family, implying that the Jiang family was Xiao Miaomiao’s real family. The Li family would definitely not recognize the Xiao Family, whom Xiao Miaomiao didn’t even acknowledge.

Xiao Miaomiao watched Lin Yushuang and her daughter leave and sneered.

“Madam, that Xiao Yuyan tried to get close to our young master before, but she didn’t even have a chance to approach him. Later, she went to live outside and rarely came back. After the young master was injured and declared a vegetable, she even went on a month-long vacation and then returned. After that, she even made her family driver take a detour and leave from another side, avoiding passing by the Li family.”

“It seems like she was afraid that the Li family would force her to marry into the family as a way to bring him back to life. She doesn’t even look at herself. With her calculating eyes, the old madam and the madam wouldn’t let her in.”

The maid explained to Xiao Miaomiao，fearing that she might misunderstand.

Xiao Miaomiao didn’t know about this. The Xiao Family moved here after she got married. It seemed that their purpose in moving here was to get close to the Li family. Xiao Yuyan was even more obvious; she wanted to marry Li Jingcheng. However, her self-proclaimed intelligence was simply foolish in the eyes of others.

Xiao Miaomiao sipped her tea and looked expectantly at the gate, waiting for her grandfather and the others to arrive.

When she saw her cousin’s car, she stood up and was about to ask someone to open the door, but the guards at the gate opened the door and let the car in.

The maid beside her explained, “Master has already registered the license plate number of the Jiang family’s car. They can enter freely.”

Xiao Miaomiao didn’t expect the Li family to be so prepared. It seemed that she was still too naive.

The Li family also received the notification that the Jiang family was coming, and the Li grandfather and the others came out to greet them.

The Li family’s attitude this time was very low. Jiang Feng looked at their attitude and then waved to Xiao Miaomiao.

Xiao Miaomiao glanced at Jiang Chen, but he was looking at the ground and not at her.

“What are you looking at your cousin for? Come here quickly.” Jiang Feng said to Xiao Miaomiao.

“Grandpa.” Xiao Miaomiao walked over with a flattering smile and called him.

“Humph, do you even have this grandpa in your eyes?” Jiang Feng was both fond and resentful of this little granddaughter. She had made such a big decision as marriage without consulting him.

“It’s fine the first time, but you actually played a flash marriage again, and it was with a vegetable.” Jiang Feng deliberately said this in front of the Li family.

“This time, I’m serious. And you guys also approved of it, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here. Besides, Li Jingcheng is just unconscious. He looks fine otherwise.” Xiao Miaomiao still hoped that her grandfather would approve.

Jiang Feng choked. What could he do? The Li family knew that Xiao Miaomiao was their Jiang family member. If they didn’t come, they might think that Xiao Miaomiao didn’t have anyone to protect her. No matter what, the Jiang family had to come and support Xiao Miaomiao.

“Really? I’ll take you to see him. Li Jingcheng is really handsome.” Xiao Miaomiao said confidently.

“What’s the use of being handsome? He can only lie in bed. He can’t even protect you.” Jiang Feng was still dissatisfied.

Xiao Miaomiao heard this and smiled awkwardly, “That’s because we live in a society ruled by law now. It’s very safe. I don’t cause trouble, so I don’t need him to protect me.”

“Then what about when you’re sick and hospitalized? You’re not happy, and you don’t even have anyone to comfort you. Don’t you envy those who have husbands to take care of them?” Jiang Feng shook his head and looked at Xiao Miaomiao.

“Grandpa, the Li family has a family doctor. Besides, I’m usually happy. I won’t be unhappy. If anyone makes me unhappy, I’ll make them unhappy first.” Xiao Miaomiao never considered herself a pushover.

Jiang Feng sighed, “As long as you don’t regret it.” Seeing that she was determined to stick to this marriage, he could only do his best to protect her.

“Old Jiang, don’t worry. We value Miaomiao very much. We treat her as our own child and will not let her suffer any injustice.” The Li grandfather stepped forward and said.

The Li grandfather could clearly hear that Jiang Feng had come to support Xiao Miaomiao，and there was also a warning element in his words.

Actually, he didn’t need to be so cautious. From the moment Xiao Miaomiao and Jing Cheng obtained their marriage certificate, Xiao Miaomiao was the person the Li family had to protect.

“You know that’s good. Xiao Miaomiao is the only girl in my younger generation. We naturally value her. We agreed to this marriage because we saw how determined Miaomiao was. However, don’t think that Miaomiao is inseparable from your Li Jingcheng. If she doesn’t live well in your house or suffers any injustice, I won’t stand by and watch.” Jiang Feng said to the Li family.

“No, Miaomiao is very good. We all know that. It’s Li Jingcheng’s good fortune to marry Miaomiao.” The Li grandmother nodded.

“You know that’s good.” Jiang Feng said proudly.

“Lunch is ready. Let’s go in and eat first. We prepared it according to your tastes. The dishes were chosen by Miaomiao. I hope you like them.” Ouyang Xuan saw that the atmosphere was just right and quickly invited the Jiang family to go in.

The Jiang family saw that the dishes were indeed what they usually liked to eat, and the most prominent one was the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall in the middle.

Jiang Feng was quite satisfied. From this dinner, he could see that the Li family valued this meeting between the two families. Considering that Xiao Miaomiao was present, the Jiang family also restrained themselves and didn’t cause any trouble directly.

The Li family also realized this. To be honest, the reason why the two families could sit down and eat a meal peacefully was thanks to Xiao Miaomiao. Otherwise, they would have left the table in anger.
