Chapter 52: Don’t Worry, I’m Here

“Tingmei, say no more!” Jiang Huaiyuan reprimanded his daughter for talking too much.
Then, he looked at Shi Yuting and Zuo Weiyi.
“Mr. Shi, can I have a word with my daughter please?”
Shi Yuting turned to his side and looked at Zuo Weiyi. His eyes were full of adoration and his voice was gentle enough to make every lady jealous!
“Do you wish to go?”
Zuo Weiyi looked up and saw his adoration.
She wanted justice for the humiliation that her mother had suffered but without power, how could she make Jiang family pay the price?
Sensing her worries, Shi Yuting smiled and assured her, “Don’t worry, I’m here.”
He had set her mind at ease. After receiving his message, Zuo Weiyi looked at him and was extremely touched.
Although they were not a courting couple, at least he doted on her.
She turned around to look at Jiang Huaiyuan and agreed. “Alright.”
Jiang Huaiyuan was overjoyed.
Only if she was willing to have a private talk with him, everything would be much easier.
He turned and walked toward the garden, a place with not many people at the moment.
Before following him, Zuo Weiyi took another anxious look at Shi Yuting.
She didn’t know whether what she planned to do next would trouble him.
What if what she was about to say or do required his money and power? Would he still help her against all odds?
Shi Yuting sensed her anxiousness and uneasiness and gave her a gentle smile.
“Remember, you are my woman. Nobody would dare to touch you.” Once again, he set her mind at ease and assured her to do what she wished to do.
Shi Yuting’s doting on Zuo Weiyi was deeply imprinted in Jiang Huaiyuan’s mind. He was truly shocked.
If only he had known that Weiyi was Mr. Shi’s woman, he would’ve brought her and her mother back home and treated them well!
Now, he had done them both wrong and might even offend Shi Yuting!
Qiu Yun saw them walking to the garden but still being worried, she tailed them.
Jiang Tingmei, on the other hand, did not plan to leave. She thought this was the perfect opportunity to get close to Shi Yuting since Zuo Weiyi was not around.
She turned around and with eyes brimming with admiration, she introduced herself. “Mr. Shi, I’m Jiang Tingmei. It’s nice to meet you.”
She stretched out her hand politely, wanting to get to know Shi Yuting.
However, Shi Yuting did not bother to look at her. He turned and walked towards another direction, taking no notice of her existence.
Jiang Tingmei’s hand dangled in the air awkwardly. She looked at the man’s back as he left and bit her lips angrily but she did not dare to chase up to him.
She didn’t understand why Mr. Shi had no response after hearing about Zuo Weiyi being an illegitimate daughter.
Didn’t he think she was better than Zuo Weiyi?
Except for her looks, were neither her identity nor family background better than Zuo Weiyi’s?
Jiang Tingmei had been very confident of her own looks but today, after seeing Zuo Weiyi, she had indeed been stunned by her beauty.
She was even jealous of her!
Zuo Weiyi walked to a deeper part of the garden and stopped with her back facing Jiang Huaiyuan.
“Say what you want to say.” Her tone of voice was cold and was one that Jiang Huaiyuan had never heard before.
“Weiyi, I know you hate me for your mother’s death, but could you please ask Mr. Shi not to withdraw his investment for the sake of your father? You know that I’ve put in lots of effort and hard work in Jiang Group. I can’t bear to see it being closed down.”
