Chapter 168 Once faced with a huge temptation, who can guarantee that he will not change his heart?

Beihuai City.

Jiang Yi had just finished a day's work and walked out of the office building dragging his tired body.

A luxury car was already parked at the door waiting for her.

After Jiang Yi got into the car, a cold atmosphere filled the interior.

"Yiyi~"

"Mom, why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Jiang Yi said dissatisfiedly.

"What's wrong with you? Don't you welcome me?" Mother's eyes became sharp.

"No, you should have called me in advance instead of waiting to let me know."

"Okay, it's my fault. But why did you go to work at Huo's? Before, you rebelled against your grandfather and refused to take over the company, and now you're going to work there again." The mother questioned.

Jiang Yi felt aggrieved and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Mom, my brother has grown up. Why do you always throw the burden on me? I also want to live the life I want."

The mother frowned. "Is working for others here the life you want? Grandpa would be furious if you knew about this."

"I feel good now. There is no pressure and I live a very easy life." Jiang Yi gritted his teeth and said firmly.

"Yiyi, be obedient and go back with your mother." The mother's tone softened.

"mom……"

"I will talk to your grandfather. As long as you come back, I will help you get whatever you want." Mother held her hand and said softly.

"Why do you always push me? Don't you know how much pressure I face when taking over the company?"

"I'm just a girl. Can't I just stay at home and be a pampered little princess like other people?" Jiang Yi's tone was full of grievance and dissatisfaction.

"My dear daughter, you chose business as your major because you liked it. Now that grandpa is old, the whole family can only rely on you for support." There was a hint of helplessness in the mother's words.

Hearing this, Jiang Yi sneered: "Haha, am I the only child in our family? Why can he live as he pleases?"

"Your brother is still young and knows nothing about business. How can you expect him to take over such a big family business?"

"If you don't understand, you can learn. Who is born knowing everything? Isn't it through accumulation and hard work that we grow up slowly?"

Jiang Yi argued that she felt her point of view was not wrong.

Faced with her daughter's insistence, the mother could only helplessly plead: "Mom, please come back, okay?"

At this moment, Jiang Yi fell into deep thought.

She really couldn't understand why her family was so different.

Other people's daughters can enjoy a free and easy life, but I have to bear such a heavy responsibility.

Suddenly, her mother's words broke her contemplation: "Are you reluctant to part with the boy from the Shi family? If so, mom agrees that you two can be together."

Jiang Yi's eyes widened, looking at his mother in disbelief: "Mom! You actually sent someone to investigate me? In your eyes, do I not even have the most basic privacy?"

"As long as you agree, I will talk to your grandfather and let you hold the wedding directly."

Jiang Yi clenched his hands tightly together, his fingernails dug deeply into his palms, and a sour feeling formed at the tip of his nose.

The car continued to move forward. Jiang Yi looked at the brightly lit city night scene outside the window, feeling confused...

"Your second uncle has returned recently. You should have known that he has an illegitimate child. If you don't agree, then this family will quickly fall into the abyss of destruction."

"Your grandfather is now over 70 years old. Over the years, his health has been poor, and the company has been managed by an agent. After all, the agent is just an outsider. Once faced with a huge temptation, who can guarantee that he will not change his mind?"

……

“Give me some time…” Hearing this, Jiang Yi’s heart began to waver.

She was well aware of her second uncle's gambling habit. If she handed the company over to him, the Jiang family would soon go into decline.

And that illegitimate son was even more difficult to deal with. He did everything from eating, drinking, whoring to gambling, and completely inherited his father's bad behavior.

If he had a little more ambition, perhaps his grandfather would not have been so embarrassed. As for issues such as status and position, they were actually just a matter of a word.

The car slowly stopped in front of the Junda Hotel and stopped steadily.

The driver said respectfully: "Madam, we have arrived at the hotel."

Mrs. Jiang nodded slightly, "Yes."

She turned to look at the person next to her and said slowly, "I live here, waiting for your answer."

"I'll take you up."

The mother raised her lips slightly and invited: "How about having dinner together tonight?"

"I don't have time tonight."

"You have a date, okay? Find a time to bring the person over so I can meet him."

At this time, Jiang Yi's cheeks turned slightly red, and she called out helplessly: "Mom..."

The mother smiled and said comfortingly: "Okay, since you have an appointment, then go quickly. I can go up by myself."

Then, Mrs. Jiang told the driver, "Old Qian, please send the young lady off."

The driver immediately responded, "Yes, ma'am."

However, Jiang Yi quickly refused: "No need."

"It's not safe for a girl to be alone at this late hour. I'll go up first, and we'll do it as soon as possible."

"Ah."

After the mother got off the car, the car started again and slowly drove out for a distance.

"Uncle Qian, let's go to Juxiang Pavilion. Please give me the directions." Jiang Yi, who was sitting in the back seat, spoke calmly.

"Okay, miss." Uncle Qian responded and then turned on the car navigation.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Yi spoke again: "Are you and my mother the only ones coming?"

"Miss, and the young master." Uncle Qian turned his head and looked at Jiang Yi in the rearview mirror.

"Where did he go?" Jiang Yixiu frowned slightly.

"I don't know about that. As soon as we got off the plane, the young master left by himself." Uncle Qian answered truthfully.

"What has he been busy with recently?" Jiang Yi asked.

"The young master has been filming a TV series recently, and it seems to have been completed." Uncle Qian said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, got it." Jiang Yi responded lightly and said nothing more.

The atmosphere in the car was a little dull for a while. After a while, Uncle Qian couldn't help but say, "Miss, Madam is doing this for your own good."

Jiang Yi's heart was slightly shaken, but he didn't show anything on his face. He just whispered, "Uncle Qian, I know. I will think about it carefully."

Silence returned to the car.
