477 What Do You Think I’ll Give in Exchange?
“You—” Xue Yingyue was tongue-tied and did not know how to reply.
She had always wanted Qian Jiyun to hand the item over, but she did not know what it was.
She even wondered if the people who had always wanted her to get that item from Qian Jiyun knew what it was.
Perhaps they did not know either?
Even that item’s existence was a question.
It was merely a legend of the Qian family. It was merely something old Master Qian had mentioned to her when he was drunk.
“Qian Jiyun, you don’t even want to save your biological father?” She took a deep breath and looked up at him.
To this day, everyone knew that the Qian family possessed a treasure that everyone desperately desired but could not obtain.
Everything she had today was because of this treasure. Otherwise, she would have died long ago.
Hence, whether there was such a thing or not, she had to firmly believe in its existence. She would die otherwise!
“Pft.” Qian Jiyun sneered and looked at Xue Yingyue in amusement.
“You’re his foot-washing maid, Xue Yingyue. Shouldn’t you know what kind of person he is better than I do? What do you think I’ll give in exchange for him if he’s still alive?”
“You, you…” Xue Yingyue stared at him blankly.
He’s not rescuing him? How can it be? Qian Jiyun has never dared to do anything to me because I have that person.
I used this to attack Qian Jiyun and the people around him repeatedly. But now he’s saying that he won’t rescue that person?
“Qian Jiyun, do you think that’s not your father? I’m telling you, that’s your father. I have him. As long as you—”
“If he’s still alive, I’ll send him to hell personally!” Qian Jiyun interrupted Xue Yingyue fiercely.
“Xue Yingyue, how do you think he died back then? How did he disappear? Did you really set him up, you ignorant people?
“You must have some self-awareness. How can you be so shameless as to think you can scheme against him? Did you think you’d be successful? You who were born a foot-washing servant, Madam Qian?”
“You…” Xue Yingyue lowered her head and glanced at herself.
Suddenly, her eyes widened. She looked up at Qian Jiyun and opened her mouth a few times, but no words came out.
She took a deep breath and pointed a trembling finger at Qian Jiyun.
“It was you! You wrote that note?!”
Back then, she could scheme against Qian Zhenhong because of a note of unknown origin.
Yes, its origin was unknown.
She had thought that one of her backers had secretly handed her the note. However, when she checked later, she realized it was not from them and could not find its source.
But it was him! It was Qian Jiyun!
“He’s your father! You devil! You even set up your father! Qian Jiyun, you’re inhumane!”
“Father? Hah.” Qian Jiyun chuckled. He scoffed at the word “father”.
“Xue Yingyue, did you think I came here today to talk about father-and-son relations? Did you misunderstand me?”
