829: Abandoning Jing Lu
829: Abandoning Jing Lu
"Of course, there are," Di Anran answered smoothly. "However, what can you do about it? These women decided to follow him willingly. They are the ones to blame for what happened to them before they died. The court would require you to have evidence. Just like Jing L's case. Why did she drink at a bar that night? Why did she eat the food that was offered? This has nothing to do with Bai Tu. You can check it out and you wouldn't be able to find anything. Instead, the Bai family has not kicked her out of the household and did not expose any of this. Shouldn't you be grateful to them? Even if you called the police on her, you wouldn't be able to arrest them. Instead, they would be the ones suing you for defamation, as you would have caused damage to their company's stock market. You wouldn't be able to ruin them before you ended up ruining yourself.
Cheng Shuyu was disappointed.
At this very moment, she really regretted everything before this.
Why did she believe that there would be nice things falling from the sky?
Why didn't she carry on with it when she had already hired a private investigator?
Cheng Shuyu would never know that Di Jingxuan was the one that made Bai Tu marry Jing Lu.
Once Di Jingxuan made up his mind, there wasn't anything that he couldn't do.
Therefore, he had already arranged for men to be around Cheng Shuyu. Even if she hired a private investigator, they would be working for Di Jingxuan.
She could investigate, but the only thing that she would find was that Bai Tu is the perfect young man for marriage.
"What- What about Xiao Lu? Should we just allow Bai Tu to further torture her? You are her sister! You're so powerful, couldn't you help her find the source of the pills that she's taking?! Find the cure to it and help her recover from it!
Di Anran's voice was still soft and unbothered, "I should be able to find it. Even if I don't, my father would be able to help us."
Cheng Shuyu's eyes lit up with hope.
Just as she was about to speak, Di Anran "poured" a pail of cold water over her head when she said, "However, so what? Do you have the ability to protect her forever? If the Di family wanted to get rid of her, they would be able to do so even if you went overseas. They would still be able to reach you and ruin your life. It may be possible that once I get the cure to her drug and you help her overcome it, she will be back on another type within a week.
"Didn't I tell you that if the Di family wanted to ruin you, you are just a tiny ant to them? If you want to cause a scene, that would be impossible. I have been their daughter for the past 20 years and I know clearly how cruel they can be. If they aren't that good at this, they wouldn't have been able to become the richest family in the country as a foreign company, defeating all the other families that have been in this country for the past 20 years."
Cheng Shuyu was shocked as she listened to Di Anran. Her eyes looked lost as she was filled with disappointment.
If only she knew… She would have treated Jinqian kindly.
It wouldn't cost much just to take care of her. If she did take good care of Jinqian, Xiao Lu and her wouldn't be in such a terrible state, would they?
"Did you get the land?"
Di Anran finally asked the question she truly wanted an answer to.
Cheng Shuyu squatted on the floor. Instead of answering Di Anran, she asked, "What should I do now? I can't just leave her alone."
"What do you want to do? Do you have the abilities to do so? Enough with this. I don't have much time. Did you get the land?" Di Anran asked again.
"Are you just trying to get that piece of land from us, then you will abandon us afterwards?" Cheng Shuyu asked the question that she always wanted to ask.
Di Anran knew that she was feeling insecure right now and quickly reassured her, "You are my mother, how could I abandon you? If I do, you can sue me in regards to not taking care of you."
