Chapter 23 - Hypocrisy (1/2)

”Insolent!” Jing Shuping slammed his fists on the table. ”Just because you have become the wife of Su Liwei, the Su Liwei who doesn't even hold you in any respect, do you think you can behave that way in front of me?”

”I surely can't behave this way just because I'm the wife of Su Liwei, my dear father as much as you sound pleased to mention that your son-in-law doesn't hold your daughter in any respect.” Jing Lihua was calm as ever with a hint of sarcasm, her eyes were cold. ”But I sure can behave this way because I'm the president of Tang enterprise - one of the top five companies in Beijing.”

Jing Shuping laughed. ”I know everything about the drowning business of your Tang enterprise. With someone as foolish as you presiding over it, the company is bound to doom.”

Jing Lihua contemplated for a while. On second thought...

”Fine. I'll make Mo Liang agree to meet you.” Jing Lihua hid her smile under her eyes. She would make him agree to meet him but she wouldn't make him agree not to accept his offer, or not to insult him.

Jing Shuping looked pleased. His daughter knew that there will be no place for him when her company falls. She must have gotten scared after his threat. Ha! She was as boneless as her mother.

”Just like that. You should know you owe us! Humph!”

The hypocrisy? Sometimes she wondered how could she share the same blood as him? Jing Lihua was more than happy to walk out of the dining room.

”Are you telling me you didn't send him in? Ridiculous! I paid him so much to make him agree to do this deed.”

”How could I have sent him in? Su Liwei... He was with her entire night. I didn't get a chance to...”

”Su Liwei was with her entire night?!?!?”

The quietened once they spotted Jing Lihua. Jing Tian was looking very temperamental. Jing Lihua was surprised when she stomped to her, roughly grabbed her scarf and threw it away.

”You...” Her eyes widened noticing a trail of hickeys. ”You whore!”

Jing Lihua didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

”I don't understand your standards Jing Tian. A woman is named a whore for sleeping with her own husband?”

”Y-You slept with him?”

”Of course, he is my husband. It is understandable.”

Jing Lihua did sleep with him but not the way Jing Tian was thinking. So it was not entirely a lie. She hid a smile under her eyes.

Su Liwei rejected her but slept with her worthless sister? How could she tolerate it?
