CHAPTER 501: CHAPTER 501

Jiang Tairan glanced at Yu Man and Jiang Guosheng, unable to hold back his curse: "Useless bunch! Can’t you negotiate with Moxi to ask her to lower her demands?"

"I did run into Moxi at the jewelry store yesterday and asked her to ask for less, but she wouldn’t budge. She even said if she doesn’t see 2.8 billion by Friday evening, she would call the police. What can we do?"

When Yu Man said this, Jiang Weiwei couldn’t help but secretly glance at her.

But fortunately, other than the loathing for Jiang Moxi on Yu Man’s face, nothing else could be discerned.

Jiang Tairan immediately frowned and stopped talking.

It was Jiang Guosheng who asked Jiang Tairan, "Dad, about Moxi introducing you to the young divine doctor of the Feng Family, what did she say?"

Jiang Weiwei pricked up her ears, keenly catching the words "young divine doctor of the Feng Family."

The Feng Family has a young divine doctor?

Who is it?

But considering her current grave mistake and her lack of status in the Jiang Family, even though she was curious, Jiang Weiwei didn’t dare to ask casually.

"She said she would help me, but there has been no news until now." Mentioning these matters, Jiang Tairan also felt anxious.

Yu Man couldn’t help but mock, "I think she’s just brushing you off, not really intending to help you. Otherwise, after so many days, how come there is not even a bit of news?"

Jiang Tairan’s face suddenly turned very unsightly.

Actually, Jiang Tairan had also thought that Jiang Moxi might have just been fobbing him off and didn’t really want to help him.

But he still clung to a glimmer of hope, waiting all this time since it was a matter of his life.

But just like Yu Man said, they had been waiting so many days, and there was still no movement from Jiang Moxi.

Instead, the process of extorting compensation from Jiang Weiwei was methodically underway.

Jiang Tairan had to face the harsh reality, understanding that Jiang Moxi was not likely to help him.

But this matter was related to his life, Jiang Tairan, and he could not just let it go.

Jiang Tairan said, "I was hoping, since she is the blood of our Jiang Family, not to take things too far, but since this little beast is so heartless, then don’t blame us for being ruthless."

Jiang Tairan’s words made both Yu Man and Jiang Guosheng curiously look at him.

Yu Man even pressed, "Dad, do you have any good ideas?"

Jiang Weiwei was also hopeful, yet she dared not show it too obviously.

"That little beast said she has two brothers and comes from a well-off family, right? We expose her, let everyone know what kind of disloyal person the famous designer X is!"

Jiang Tairan’s suggestion got the support of Yu Man.

"Yes, we should also reveal her relationship with Weiwei, so everyone knows she is greedy for money and wouldn’t hesitate to thoroughly harm her own kin!"

Jiang Guosheng said, "Guangmei is in the entertainment industry, she should have the resources to make a big deal out of it."

Jiang Tairan nodded: "Right, those in the entertainment industry know best how to stir up this kind of heat. I’ll give Guangmei a call later, get her to organize the situation with us and Moxi..."

The three of them felt this approach was feasible, and discussed it with particular seriousness.

Only Jiang Weiwei’s face was deathly pale.

Because she knew, Jiang Moxi was the adopted daughter of the Feng Family, and her talk of two brothers and a well-off background was no lie.

If they went public with this, it was possible that someone from the Feng Family would emerge to set the record straight.

After much thought, Jiang Weiwei still spoke up: "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I think perhaps we should let this go."

She was afraid that exposing Jiang Moxi would anger the Feng Family, making the situation even harder to resolve.

But Yu Man persuaded her, "Weiwei, we cannot let this go. Think about it, in just two days it’ll be Friday. If we can’t gather those 2.8 billion, are you really prepared to go to jail?"

Jiang Guosheng also said, "We’ve tolerated her for a long time. This incident will serve as a closure for our relationship with her."

Jiang Tairan then said, "Moreover, this matter concerns not only your future but also the life of this old man! So no matter what, we must fight this little beast!"

Listening to Jiang Tairan’s words, Jiang Weiwei also faintly sensed something.

She thought that if she did not get involved at all, even if the Feng Family were to pursue the matter, they wouldn’t be able to trace it back to her.

Furthermore, with such a fuss, Jiang Moxi and the Jiang Family were tantamount to completely severing ties.

Even if the Jiang Family learned later that Jiang Moxi was the esteemed Miss Xi, it would be inappropriate to invite her back.

Jiang Weiwei even thought that if Jiang Moxi brought trouble upon the Feng Family, she might eventually be kicked out.

By that time, Jiang Moxi would be like a stray dog, and she, Jiang Weiwei, could easily manipulate her no matter what!

Harboring various malicious thoughts, Jiang Weiwei quietly listened on the side as Jiang Tairan and others discussed how to slander Jiang Moxi.

Zhao Guangmei, true to her roots in the entertainment industry, received a call from Jiang Tairan, and in less than half an hour, a smear article emerged, accusing the newly-famed designer X of betrayal, denying family, and even driving her sister to suicide.

Then, countless influential bloggers shared the article, sparking significant attention.

In less than an hour, search terms such as "Designer X Betrays and Forgets Roots," "Designer X Habitual Liar," "Designer X and Jiang Weiwei are Sisters," and "Jiang Weiwei’s Suicide" successively topped the search engine trending lists.

At this time, Jiang Moxi was receiving medical books from Old Master Feng.

"These books are all about meridians; take them and have a look."

Jiang Moxi, facing the stack of books, felt a bit headache-stricken: "Grandfather, with so many books, when will I ever finish reading them?"

"Considering your memory, if you really want to finish reading a few books, isn’t that easy? When I fell ill back then, you scoured medical books for months and cured my disease."

The Feng Family treated Jiang Moxi well, and she repaid them a hundredfold.

After Old Master Feng designated Jiang Moxi as the medical heir, he made the young girl read medical books and tested her knowledge every day.

But at that time, Jiang Moxi was young and always wanted to play.

Every day, Old Master Feng had to capture her to study the medical books, much like a cat chasing a mouse.

Until Old Master Feng was diagnosed with cancer.

At that time, all the renowned doctors in Emperor City said that Old Master Feng wouldn’t last through the winter.

Even the Feng Family was quietly discussing Old Master Feng’s posthumous matters.

But Jiang Moxi softly told Old Master Feng, "Grandfather, don’t be afraid! I’ll go through the medical books, and I will cure you. Just wait for me!"

Old Master Feng, looking at her cheerfully innocent expression, could only lovingly pat her head.

"Alright, Grandfather will wait for you."

In fact, Old Master Feng felt at the time that although Xixi was intelligent and had a good memory, he hadn’t passed on even half of his medical skills to her, and she was so young, how could she possibly heal him?

But not wanting to hurt her feelings, he drank whatever medicine Jiang Moxi brewed for him.

However, a miracle happened just like that.

Old Master Feng, who was diagnosed by major doctors as not surviving winter, not only made it through the winter but also lived past spring and welcomed summer, feeling more and more spry.

Even Old Master Feng himself found it somewhat miraculous, prompting him to undergo a detailed examination at the hospital, where doctors informed him that the lesions had completely disappeared.

This incident at the time caused a stir in Emperor City, with many believing that Old Master Feng had cured himself.

But Old Master Feng told them that in truth, it was their own little Xixi, just over ten years old, who poured through medical books overnight and saved him.

Although many did not believe it, there were still quite a few who were impressed and came asking for help.

Like the Li Family from Emperor City, their matriarch, aged eighty, suffered from an incurable disease, enduring unbearable pain.

Thus, her son Mr. Li, relying on his good relationship with the Feng Family, approached Old Master Feng in hopes of obtaining a prescription to alleviate his mother’s pain.

Old Master Feng at that time spoke of Xiao Fengxi’s accomplishments, but Mr. Li still insisted that any medicine that could relieve his mother’s pain would suffice.

Old Master Feng could not refuse and let their own Xiao Xi prescribe a remedy...
