Chapter 1520: Chapter 1521: No Need to Care Whether He Lives or Dies

Jiang Chenyue saw that she hadn’t responded for a long time, standing there absentmindedly. She frowned and sternly asked her again, "Did you hear what I said clearly or not?"

Chu Xi lowered her eyelids in humiliation, silently clenching her fists. "I heard it clearly."

Jiang Chenyue’s face eased slightly, and she spoke earnestly, "Your identity is different now. I don’t care what kind of personality you had before; moving forward, I hope you can be more reserved and composed. Many times, don’t keep fixating on things that your status doesn’t dictate you to do. Do you understand?"

Chu Xi lifted her head and glanced at her, a flash of resentment deep in her eyes, then nodded slightly. "Yes, I understand."

"Ah." Jiang Chenyue sighed deeply and said with pointed meaning, "I hope you truly understand."

Chu Xi remained silent. She didn’t want to say more and told her, "You’ll need to attend the banquet tonight. Go back to your room to rest and think carefully about what I’ve said."

"Yes." Chu Xi left the living room unwillingly and returned to her own room.

Once she left, the butler immediately brewed a cup of coffee and brought it to Jiang Chenyue’s side. Seeing Jiang Chenyue pressing her hand to her forehead in frustration with an unwell expression, he softly advised her, "Madam, please don’t get too angry; it will harm your health."

Jiang Chenyue looked quite unwell and didn’t answer him, her gaze distant. She murmured quietly, "How could she possibly be my Xi?"

The butler’s brow twitched, and he carefully kept his head lowered. "Miss Chu may have her flaws, but her nature isn’t bad. With proper guidance, she will come to understand."

"..." Jiang Chenyue felt as though a heavy stone was pressing against her chest, leaving her unable to breathe freely. The weight of her melancholy showed clearly in her pallor. "Let’s hope."

She thought both she and Aotian were upright and decent people, yet their daughter turned out to be full of petty schemes, with methods that couldn’t be seen in the light of day.

She was supposed to be a proper ’Miss Chu,’ of noble standing. Even if she disliked someone, she could suppress them openly to their face. But she should never resort to underhanded tactics behind their back. Only low-level characters indulge in such behavior. True strength lies in boldness and fairness, having no use for such shady tricks.

In this regard, she really admired Rong Yan.

Even though rumors about Rong Yan were buzzing across the internet, every time Rong Yan fought back, it was swift and precise. Even when tactics were involved, they were legitimate counterattacks that left people cheering in satisfaction.

Unlike Chu Xi, whose recent moves she had uncovered were cruel and petty, cloaked in deceptive schemes.

She had just finished a phone call and was, indeed, furious—so angry she could’ve slapped her across the face. But after questioning, she believed Chu Xi genuinely didn’t know about what Chu Feng had done.

Still, she was well aware that even if Chu Xi didn’t know Chu Feng had orchestrated the kidnapping of Rong Yan, Chu Xi was by no means innocent in the matter.

She massaged her brow, her mood growing increasingly somber. "Leave Chu Feng’s actions alone. Let Li Shengxiao handle it however he sees fit. He’s far too reckless! Ever since Chu Xi moved into Chu Garden, he’s been stirring up trouble everywhere. I’ve had numerous people come to me complaining, saying he relies on his power to bully others and take over their territory. I’ve been too tired to argue with him about these things. But he doesn’t know when to stop. He thinks my tolerance equates to tacit approval, and his behavior has grown more arrogant."

A couple of days ago, AQ Platform’s director gave her a call and subtly asked if Lemon Entertainment had ever crossed her.
