Chapter 274: Marriage by Force

Although Jing Zhongxiu only said a few words, Jing Yiran could already feel his back getting drenched in sweat.

It was because he knew exactly how powerful Jing Zhongxiu could be and how vicious he could get. When he said that no one would be able to keep him safe, he really meant that there would be no one. And if that time came, he would have nothing left.

Jing Yiran had never expected that what he thought as confidential and discreet had already been discovered by Jing Zhongxiu. He was annoyed that Jing Yichen had found out about it. It was because Ji Bo revealed the secret of his own accord, not because Jing Yichen had discovered it. What was more, Jing Yichen had been watching his every move and it was to be expected if he found out the truth.

But Jing Zhongxi had not watched his every move and he still knew about this incident?

Could it have been Ji Bo who leaked the information again?

Or was it Jing Yichen who told Jing Zhongxiu?

The latter sounded more likely.

Jing Yiran felt furious inside his heart, but daren’t show any expression on face.

For some reason, Jing Yichen seemed to have improved his relationship with their father recently.

Even on the most tabooed day, namely Zhao Qing’s death day, they didn’t quarrel with each other. Also, it had been Jing Yichen who carried Jing Zhongxiu back home from the graveyard. It was simply incredible! Jing Yichen seemed to have changed completely and had even started to address Jing Zhongxiu as “dad”. He also seemed to be more talkative than before, totally different from his earlier cold self who used to turn a deaf ear towards whatever Jing Zhongxiu said to him.

Jing Yiran’s men had also told him that every weekend, Jing Yichen ate lunch with Shangguan Ning’s Uncle, along with Jing Zhongxiu.

Since his men dare not get close to them, they had no idea what they were talking about inside. But they could understand that the atmosphere indoors was very joyful and all four of them seemed to be on good terms with each other. His men had tried to get close to servants of Huang Lihan’s family to get this much information out of them.

For a long time, the estrangement between Jing Yichen and Jing Zhongxiu had been his biggest guaranty.

As long as they kept quarrelling with each other, there would always be an opportunity for him to take advantage of.

Jing Zhongxiu already favored Jing Yichen and when the estrangement between them two was gone, he would naturally favor him more. Otherwise he would not have transferred only 10% of the shares and probably would have taken it from Jing Yichen instead.

Jing Yiran got quite anxious and uneasy in the current situation. He also got very jealous about the close relationship between the son and his father.

Jing Zhongxiu never treated him in the same way as he treated Jing Yichen. He knew very little about Family Jing or their secrets. He was not able to make any move in the family. But Jing Yichen knew everything and had the authority to do anything.

Why, why did Jing Yichen get so much more than him?

Why, why must he be less than Jing Yichen in every single way?

Without the support of the family, he would not have the power to get what he wanted or to take revenge for his mother.

And now, he was being prevented from teaming up with other forces.

What could he do to avoid being at the mercy of others? Did his mother just die in vain?

He had sworn at his mother’s grave that he would kill Jing Yichen to take revenge for her.

It was natural that he would team up with other forces, otherwise he alone would not be able to fight against Family Jing. He was going to get all the properties and forces of Family Jing to be his own and Jingsheng Enterprise was going to be his as well!

Well, just let it be 10% for the moment. He was going to get more.

With hands holding tightly at the letter of share transference, he felt his fingers trembling slightly and nails whiten because of the force.

He looked down to hide the viciousness and coldness in his look and replied in a hoarse voice, “I understand, dad. I will not betray Family Jing, don’t worry. It is my home and I have nowhere else to go apart from here. I don’t want to go anywhere else, either. I won’t disappoint grandma. She brought me up and I will treat her well as a grandson.”

Jing Zhongxiu felt assured after hearing his son’s words. After all, grandma hadn’t brought him up in vain.

Family Jing had enough money for everything. As long as Jing Yiran behaved well, he had endless wealth at his disposal for him to splurge. He could still be the dandiacal and playboy Second Master, and his family would always back him up when something happened.

“Good that you understand.” Jing Zhongxiu still talked in a cold way. But he didn’t look that serious like a minute ago.

“One more thing, you mustn’t go and pick on Ning. She is your sister-in-law, not someone for you to trouble. If you want to get married as well, I can pick a girl with a good background and you can be married this year.”

Jing Yiran flung his head and bellowed in a hoarse voice, frowning. “Dad, you mustn’t interfere in my marriage. I want to pick my own wife, not one based on your standards. Also, I am too young to get married now and I can wait for two more years!”

“You are 30 years old and there is no need to wait!” Jing Zhongxiu had got this idea ages ago. But he was a broad-minded father who never wanted to force his son to marry someone he didn’t love. That was why he had always left his two sons be. Jing Yichen finally met the woman he liked when he was 33 years old and got married immediately. Although Jing Yiran was 30 years old, he would not have been forced to get married if he hadn’t been a fickle person who always planned something evil.

“You should get married soon. Grandma has been worried about you regarding this matter as well. You will settle down when you are married and will not mess around.” Jing Zhongxiu felt that if Jing Yiran got married and had his own wife, he wouldn’t pick on Shangguan Ning again.

He had already understood that Jing Yiran had feelings for Shangguan Ning.

He could have either developed these special feelings for Shangguan Ning or just approached her because he wanted to get what his brother had. Irrespective, neither of the reasons were proper. Family Jing would never allow anything like this to happen.

Jing Yiran had never expected that Jing Zhongxiu would force him to get married so fast.

Despite the pain in his chest, he sat up instantly and said furiously, “I am not getting married! I want to be the master of my own life. You didn’t interfere Jing Yichen’s marriage, then why are you interfering in mine?”
