One sentence left everyone stunned. The nurses and security guards looked at Jiang Mi with changed expressions. Although society was more progressive and open now, a niece and her uncle? That was truly shocking.
"Enough! Can you all show some decency? I have no blood relation to the Jiang family, nor any affection. I was simply bought by you to be a vessel to save your own daughter's life! My daughter was born legitimately, there's nothing to hide, and she's not some bastard as you claim! Stop throwing baseless accusations at me. On the other hand, aren't you afraid of being arrested if your past dealings of child trafficking come to light? Since you're not afraid, I'll call the police right now to explain the situation!" Jiang Mi's voice was loud, and if one listened closely, they could hear the tremor, showing her fear.
But at this moment, she couldn't back down. If she retreated, not only herself but also her daughter would be dragged down and ostracized by society!
So her voice was exceptionally loud, as if she wanted the whole world to hear.
The nurses, security guards, and everyone present listened with astonishment. They never imagined that a plot from a movie would actually happen in reality, buying a child to save another's life.
How utterly shameful!
Seeing that she gained no advantage and was instead outmaneuvered, Zhong Xiu's gaze fell on Jiang Mi's torn collar, revealing ambiguous marks underneath. She pointed at Jiang Mi and cursed, "You little slut, our Jiang family provided for you, clothed you, and educated you. We raised you to be this old, and you want to repay kindness with enmity! You've been bad since you were young, only knowing how to seduce men. Look at yourself! How could our Jiang family raise such a promiscuous woman like you!"
Tang Xinran also saw the marks on Jiang Mi. She knew perfectly well that Jiang Jingxiu had made them, and her eyes turned red with jealousy!
Jiang Mi's face was already battered beyond recognition. She trembled slightly from sheer anger. The Jiang family was truly wicked, pushing her too far.
Just as she was about to explode, a cold voice rang out, "This is quite lively! It seems I've missed quite a show. Why does Eldest Sister-in-law seem to have such strong opinions about my wife?"
Jiang Jingxiu walked over with a stern face, his handsome features seemingly covered in ice, sending shivers down anyone who looked at him.
Zhong Xiu felt a pang of fear seeing her younger brother-in-law. Jiang Jingren said, seeing his brother's arrival, "Jingxiu, what do you mean? Who is your wife?"
"Jiang Mi is my wife now, the mother of my child. Not everyone can insult her. Eldest Brother, I advise you to control your wife! If she speaks carelessly again, don't blame me for being unmerciful." Jiang Jingxiu walked closer and saw Jiang Mi's face, swollen like a pig's head. His expression instantly turned grim. He asked, "Who did this!"
"Who else could it be? All three of them did it," Jiang Mi pouted. She was utterly disgusted with the Jiang family now.
She had never met such a revolting family!
"Eldest Brother, Eldest Sister-in-law, Tang Xinran, are you all too presumptuous? My wife was away, and you assaulted her?" Jiang Jingxiu's voice grew colder, laced with obvious displeasure.
Jiang Mi thought to herself that this person was quite a good actor. When did she become his wife? Looking at his expression, it seemed as if it were true.
"Jiang Jingxiu, you're simply being ridiculous! Who is Jiang Mi? She's your niece!" Jiang Jingren pointed at Jiang Mi and said sternly.
