Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow and her heart skipped a beat.
Nonetheless, her cold expression did not change. Her slender fingers gently clamped the check in front of her eyes. There was a flash of light in her eyes as she took a look at the 200 million in the amount column.
Jiang Li’s parents stretched their hands into the air and did not put them down for a long time. They watched as the check flew from their front to Jiang Li’s hand.

They immediately wanted to snatch it. Jiang Li’s bewitching eyes flashed and she waved the check in front of them. It was right in front of them but she did not let them get it.
She clicked her tongue and said, “There’s really 200 million. I just counted the zeros. There’s not a single one less.”
“Ah Li, what are you trying to do? Bring the check over.” Jiang Li’s father was furious. “Don’t be a little girl.”
“Yes, Lili, quickly bring me the check. Mommy will prepare the dowry for you.” Mother Jiang forced a smile.
Jiang Li still sat lazily without changing her expression. There was a trace of coldness and mockery in her eyes.
“What did you say just now? I couldn’t hear you clearly.”
Mother Jiang saw that she could not get the check, so she rolled her eyes and began to make a solemn promise.
“Lili, can you give the check to me? I know you blame us, but we have our own difficulties. I’m sorry. I promise you, from now on, I’ll love you the most. You’ll be my most precious daughter.”

Jiang Li glanced at Jiang Man who was peeking on the stairs, and her eyes were cold. “What about Jiang Man?”
“She’s the child we mistakenly took. How can she compare to you? You’re our blood relative. I’ll definitely love you. Come, give me the check.”
“Yes, Ah Li, dad really needs money now. The company is going bankrupt. I promise you, when everything is restored, I will hand the company over to you. You are our biological daughter.” Father Jiang also cried bitterly and begged, he did not even care about his pride anymore.
Jiang Li looked at Jiang Man, who was at the top of the stairs with an angry face.
“See? In their hearts, you are not as important as money.”
“Ah!” Jiang Man screamed, wanting to rush down and tear Jiang Li apart.
Unexpectedly, Mother Jiang gave her a slap.
“Have you had enough? Who told you that you can hit your sister? You really have no manners at all.”
Jiang Man covered her face in disbelief. “Dad, mom, didn’t you say that you love me the most?”
Mother Jiang’s eyes showed reluctance, but when she thought of the 200 million, she still gritted her teeth.
“You wretched girl, we adopted you out of kindness and made you the daughter of a rich family. Not only are you ungrateful, you even want to hit your sister. I don’t have a daughter like you!”
“Yes, Manman, I’m so disappointed in You!”
Jiang Manman’s eyes shone with hatred. “I hate you, I hate you to death.”
“You wretched girl, stop fooling around…” Mother Jiang scolded angrily.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Li’s expression was still very cold.
She even felt a little bored. What loving family? All this also turned out to be fake.
“Alright, the show is over. It’s time for the curtain call.”
After saying that, Jiang Li handed the check to Father Jiang and Mother Jiang. When they were so grateful that they wanted to reach out to take it, she suddenly sneered.
In the next second, the check was torn into pieces in her hand.
“Ah, you, you lied to us!” Mother Jiang’s face suddenly changed as she pointed at her and cursed.
“You wretched girl, I knew that you were not so kind. Let me tell you, I don’t think of you as my daughter at all. Go to hell!”
“If you don’t give us the betrothal gifts, don’t expect us to give you a cent of the dowry! This wretched girl doesn’t know shame. She wants to move into the man’s house before she gets engaged!”
Curses continued to be hurled at her. Jiang Li’s expression was abnormally cold at this moment. She had long seen through all of this and would not expect anything else.
“I’ll beat you to death, you wretched girl!”
Father Jiang rushed up in exasperation and wanted to hit her. Her gaze was abnormally cold as she extended her hand to block.
“Ah! It hurts so much!”
Father Jiang cried out in pain. His arm was dislocated and he was in so much pain that he collapsed on the ground and cried out.
