A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 1196: Ambition

Jiang Zhengfang looked at Old Sir Jiang’s authoritative face. Her heart was somewhat uneasy, not knowing what part of their conversation he had heard, she instinctively stepped back.Old Sir Jiang glanced at him, as the butler helped him downstairs.

Once he came down, the other members of the Jiang Family also gathered in the living room.

The Jiang Family brothers didn’t know what had happened, so they went to their respective wives to inquire.

Recently, Jiang Zhenghong and Yin Manqing had been in a cold war, so when Jiang Zhenghong approached his wife, wanting to say something, he saw her icy expression and immediately lost the desire to communicate.

Old Sir Jiang sat on the sofa in the living room, his gaze swept over the crowd and he asked, "What are you arguing about?"

With her father and brother both present, Jiang Zhengfang chose to be the first to make her complaint, "Mom, sister-in-law is too much, saying I covet the Jiang family’s estate. You know me, I never had such intentions."

Old Sir Jiang’s gaze fell on Yin Manqing, as if waiting for her to speak.

In the past, Yin Manqing would definitely hurry to deny and refute Jiang Zhengfang, but this time she didn’t. She stood there, like a proud peacock, without the slightest former meekness.

Jiang Zhenghong frowned slightly, nudged his wife’s arm, "Why don’t you say something?"

"I have nothing to say." Yin Manqing said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhengfang said, "Dad, you heard that, she admitted it. Dad, you have to stand up for me."

Jiang Zhenghong looked at his wife with displeasure, "Manqing, how can you think like this about Zhengfang? Do you not know what kind of person she is?"

Yin Manqing saw his reproachful gaze and felt a sense of mockery. It was always like this; whenever it involved his family, it was always she who had to back down.

She should have been aware long ago, despite being patient all these years, she remained unimportant to him.

She looked at Jiang Zhengfang with a cold smile, "What do you want Dad to stand up for you for? I’m just saying it like this, if you truly don’t have such intentions, then consider it as me wrongly accusing you, why are you in such a hurry, seems like a guilty conscience of a thief."

"You!" Jiang Zhengfang was infuriated, and in her anger, she spoke without thinking, "Don’t think I don’t know why you’ve clung to our family for so many years, it’s just so that your son can inherit the estate!"

"That’s right, that’s indeed my thought." Yin Manqing smiled slightly, her face full of pride, "After all, I gave your brother an outstanding son."

Mu Yan looked at Yin Manqing, feeling as if her mother-in-law had been cursed, today Yin Manqing was really abnormal, her entire image had collapsed.

"Dad, did you hear that?" Jiang Zhengfang looked at Old Sir Jiang, "Sister-in-law’s wild ambitions have been exposed."

Qiu Shuyun added, "Sister-in-law, Dad is still alive, how can you have such thoughts?"

Yin Manqing looked at her, calmly said, "I hope my son becomes the heir, and also hope Dad lives long, safe and sound. After all, he is the Jiang Family Head, with him here, my son won’t be bullied by certain self-righteous elders."

Her words both directly and indirectly mocked Jiang Zhengfang, how could Jiang Zhengfang not be angry.

"Don’t forget, the Jiang family doesn’t only have Jing Heng as a male descendant."

Yin Manqing smiled slightly, "I haven’t forgotten, the heir is chosen by Dad, whoever he thinks is good he will choose, I can’t influence that, but regardless of who it is, it won’t be someone with the last name Qiao."

"You!" Jiang Zhengfang was so angry she wanted to hit someone, and then looked at Old Sir Jiang, "Dad..."

But when she looked up, she met Old Sir Jiang’s disappointed gaze, her heart tightened, "Dad..."
