Chapter 154: Send The Mother-Daughter Pair Away
Following the direction of Mrs. Qu’s gaze, she happened to see Jiang Xun, who had just entered the venue.
“I remember that her name is Jiang Xun.” Mrs. Zang looked at Nianzhen. “Is that the name of your eldest daughter?”
Mrs. Zang and Mrs. Qu had not attended Yuexi’s birthday party before and had never seen Jiang Xun before.
However, they had seen the flash-forwards. They had also seen ‘Accelerated Flight’ and ‘Unfulfilled Lovers’, so they recognized Jiang Xun at a glance.
Nianzhen rolled her eyes at Mrs. Zang in her heart.
How could this woman be so gossipy?!
She was the only one with so much to say and couldn’t stop babbling!
However, Mrs. Lin had seen Jiang Xun before. “Huh? Isn’t that Jiang Xun? Why is she here on her own?”
“What do you mean?” Mrs. Zang and Mrs. Qu both blinked and looked at Mrs. Lin.
Mrs. Lin smiled and said, “I saw Jiang Xun at Yuexi’s birthday party earlier. I was shocked when I saw that she had become an influencer. But I’ve been too embarrassed to ask you about this. How did Jiang Xun become an influencer if she isn’t a proper young lady? At the very least, she should have gone directly to the entertainment industry to become a celebrity.”
Many children from these large families now go to the entertainment industry to have fun. They did not have to worry about encountering unspoken rules, especially if they had a family backing them up.
Therefore, children from these families would not be looked down upon if they went to the entertainment industry to have fun.
Otherwise, why would someone like Jiang Chengye, who cared so much about reputation, agree to let Yuexi enter the entertainment industry?
Nianzhen’s eyes reddened as soon as she said that. “I didn’t want to say anything about the family scandal that shouldn’t be exposed to the public. That child, Jiang Xun, has never accepted me. She doesn’t even like to stay at home. She stays at her university dormitory and doesn’t return very often. How am I supposed to tell anyone about how she treats me as her stepmother? And how she mistreats me. Who knew that she went to be an influencer? I didn’t dare to say anything. If I said anything, she would think I cannot bear to see her doing well. Even her father can’t control her, let alone me.”
Nianzhen sighed weakly. “Just like today, we asked her to come with us, but she said she couldn’t come. Now, she’s here. If people noticed this, they would think we left her on purpose.”

The ladies secretly pursed their lips. Nianzhen was trying to put it nicely that she was a stepmother whom Jiang Xun had bullied.
However, she didn’t go to look for Jiang Xun even after revealing so much here.
So, how good of a stepmother could she be?
At this moment, Jixuan saw Jiang Xun coming over and was surprised. He left Chengye behind without thinking and went to look for Jiang Xun.
“Jiang Xun, why are you here?” Jixuan was very happy to see Jiang Xun.
“I received an invitation.”
“You’re here alone? Mufeng didn’t come with you?” Jixuan looked behind Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun narrowed her eyes. “What does it have to do with him?”
Jixuan scratched his head. “No, no, I was just asking casually.”
“Then follow me!” Jixuan patted his chest happily. “I’ll protect you tonight!”
He had been protected by Jiang Xun once, and he had always wanted to repay her.
Previously, Jiang Xun had run away from home and had no money. He had given Jiang Xun 10,000 yuan, but Jiang Xun had returned it.
Now, he finally had the chance to protect Jiang Xun.
“Gosh!” Jiang Xun rolled her eyes. “Nianzhen and Yuexi are here. I don’t need your protection.”
None of the people present were her match.
Jixuan looked at Jiang Xun with a face full of gratitude, and his eyes were moist. “I know you had a sharp tongue but a soft heart.”
Jiang Xun was speechless.
Nianzhen saw that Jixuan was with Jiang Xun, so she quickly brought Yuexi over.
“Jixuan, didn’t your father bring you to get acquainted with people?” Nianzhen pulled Jixuan over unhappily. “Seriously, why are you running away from such a good opportunity?”
Jixuan ignored her and turned to Jiang Xun. “Come with me.”
What?
He said the same thing in front of Nianzhen and Yuexi.
Jiang Xun didn’t have to worry about him.
Nianzhen’s expression changed. She quickly said, “What are you doing here? You’re the youngest here. You can’t even take care of yourself. How are you going to take care of– ”
Nianzhen saw Chengye coming from behind Jixuan. She changed her tone, “How will you take care of Jiang Xun? Hurry up and go back to your father’s side. We have Yuexi here. With Yuexi and I here, we won’t let Jiang Xun be alone.”
“That’s right.” Chengye heard what Nianzhen said and was very satisfied.
“Why are you here?” Chengye’s face darkened when he saw Jiang Xun.
“I came with an invitation letter.” Jiang Xun glanced at Nianzhen. “I just heard Aunt Feng telling everyone how good she is to me and how ignorant I am.”
Chengye subconsciously interjected, “Isn’t this...”
The truth?
Before he could finish his sentence, Jiang Xun gave him a cold stare, and Chengye stopped talking.
When he came back to his senses, he was livid.
He was her father!
Why was he afraid of her?
“Apparently, she even asked me to come along, but I didn’t want to, it seems. Then, I turned around and came here myself, deliberately embarrassing her.” Jiang Xun sneered. “Aunt Feng, when did you ask me to come with you? How come I didn’t know that? I’m afraid you don’t even have my contact information, right? Not only did you embarrass yourself in front of outsiders and ruin my image, but how can you make Chengye behave like this?”
“It’s none of my business!” Chengye listened and suddenly found himself dragged into the equation. He was suddenly angry. “Also, I’m your father!”
Chengye didn’t even realize that he didn’t dare to provoke Jiang Xun anymore.
He didn’t say anything when he saw Jiang Xun dissing Nianzhen just now. He thought it would be fine if the flames of war didn’t burn him.
.
“I haven’t had a father since you drove my mother to death and sent me to the countryside!” Jiang Xun glared at Chengye without backing down. “You want me to call you father? Fine, divorce Nianzhen and send the mother and daughter away.”
Jixuan looked at Jiang Xun with admiration.
As expected, Jiang Xun clearly distinguished between love and hate and treated him differently.
She said she wanted Nianzhen and Yuexi gone, but she didn’t say she wanted him gone.
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Nianzhen almost screamed. Due to the occasion, she could only try her best to suppress herself, and her body trembled with anger.
“Isn’t there a saying? If you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather. Nianzhen was spreading the news about how difficult it was for her as a stepmother and how I was making things difficult for her every day. But who in this place is a fool? They probably acted like they believed her, who knows what they say behind her back. It was also because she is a fool who thinks she is right. When other people whisper about her, wouldn’t they also include you, Feng Nianzhen’s husband, my dear father?”
Jiang Xun sneered, “Do you think you can hide the things that happened between the two of you?”
First of all, Yuexi’s age didn’t add up!
That also meant Nianzhen was Mrs. Jiang number two. Only no one was stupid enough to bring it up.
Chengye thought that Nianzhen was quite sensible, but when he heard what Jiang Xun said, he was immediately furious. “Why are you telling people this?!”
