Chapter 564: Chapter 564-poking the sore spot

Li Jingjing lowered her head and picked up some food. She rarely spoke or responded, but the food had already become tasteless in her mouth.
He knew that as long as he attended the dinner party with his relatives, he would have the final say at the dining table.
There were so many relatives, and the ones who said this were all elders. Everyone was talking about it. Li Jingjing couldn’t argue with so many people on her own.
The meal ended in an atmosphere of dissatisfaction.
Li Jingjing was drinking tea with her relatives in the living room, and it was inevitable that they would bring up this topic. The more Li Jingjing refused to say anything, the more anxious the elders were, and they wanted an explanation.
In their eyes, they had just returned to the country, so how could they understand the Lin family’s current situation of being unable to make ends meet? Lin Miao’s magnanimity and generosity had already conquered the hearts of these greedy relatives.
They instinctively believed that the Lin family was still the powerful and famous family in the business world.
They had all been in contact with Lin Miao before. They saw her as a decent, generous, and capable girl.
If the Lin family’s daughter followed li Qianqian, she would only help the Li family in the future. They wouldn’t be so calculative about the distribution of assets, and everyone would be able to control it more smoothly.
In their greedy and selfish hearts, they always thought that the choice of the Li family’s daughter-in-law was related to the future development of the Li family. More importantly, it was related to their own personal interests.
Seeing that Li Jingjing still didn’t say anything, Li Jingjing’s uncle sternly told him again,”
“Yingluo, uncle will remind you again that our family is different from other families. A good daughter-in-law will help you in the future. Don’t simply find a playful and useless woman. That kind of woman only knows how to squander!”
“I understand, uncle. It’s just that this matter hasn’t been decided yet.”
Li Jingjing didn’t want to make things ugly with her relatives face to face. After all, they would have to meet more often in the future, so he gave an ambiguous reply.
Fang Ling saw through Li Jingjing’s intentions. He was trying to find a way to avoid her.
Fang Ling thought to herself that she couldn’t persuade Li Jingjing in the past, but now, in front of so many people, she had to make him listen to her.
If Lin Miao married into the Li family and became her daughter-in-law, she could still control the overall situation in the Li family and be a good leader, so that she could continue to carry out her big plan without anyone knowing.
His own son was about to return to the country and take part in the management of the Li Corporation. He also needed someone to cooperate with him for the big plan to be successfully completed.
Of course, Fang Ling understood Lin Miao. She was a self-righteous, brainless, stupid, and childish woman. With a little trick, she would be able to make her follow her obediently by her side.
However, if Li Jingjing insisted on marrying that woman, the Li family would have no choice but to make the decision.
Fang Ling took advantage of the fact that her brother-in-law was having a serious conversation with Li Jingjing to interrupt and force Li Jingjing to compromise under the pressure.
“Yes, Yingluo. Although your uncle and aunty have never seen that woman, I personally think that you two are not suitable for each other. It’s fine if you want to play with her for fun. You don’t know how messy the acting industry is.”
Fang Ling’s words were sharp. Li Jingjing glared at Fang Ling, but she pretended not to see it.
She still had a kind smile on her face, as if she was an elder reminding her of her concern for the younger generation. She continued to have other intentions, and said with ill intentions,”
“Recently, I’ve been looking at the internet occasionally and I’ve only seen the hot search comments about that woman, Chi Luoxi. I’m so shocked that I’m breaking out in a cold sweat!”
Fang Ling emphasized. After exaggeratedly saying such heavy words, she even paused for a moment.
As expected, the effect was working. Everyone present stared at Fang Ling in surprise, waiting for her to continue with an even more important topic.
Fang Ling paused for a few seconds on purpose. When everyone’s attention was focused on her, she frowned and said worriedly,”
“Yingluo, this kind of woman is a disgrace to our family. We can’t allow her to ruin our reputation!”
“What? Li Jingjing, is what your aunt Fang said true? She’s an actor, and she has a bad reputation? And even had a relationship? What was the use of having such a woman? Don’t even talk about entering the family, even if they don’t enter the family and are together, it will ruin their reputation!”
Originally, Li Jingjing wanted to suppress the matter as much as possible. There were many things that didn’t need to be said, and they couldn’t be clearly explained.
Moreover, these people were all outsiders to his feelings. They didn’t understand anything, so it was meaningless to say more.
Li Jingjing had originally planned to leave after having a cup of tea with her relatives out of courtesy. His response to their advice was to speak less and not reply to them so as not to cause any opinions.
But ever since she heard aunt Fang mention Chi yaoxi on purpose, Li Jingjing shot her a sharp look.
He never had a good impression of aunt Fang. On the surface, this woman was tactful and knew how to do things. She also had some status in the family. After all, she was the one who took care of the Li family’s back and kept it in good order.
However, Li Jingjing could always see Fang Ling’s slyness and schemes from the small things she did, and even from the look in her eyes. That was why he had always been on guard against this woman.
If it was just a simple reminder, Li Jingjing would probably have endured it for a while. After all, there were so many elders in the family, and they had to consider the big picture.
However, Fang Ling had mentioned Chi yaoxi repeatedly and even said such insulting words.
Li Jingjing couldn’t take it anymore. His voice wasn’t loud, but he said to Fang Ling in an unusually stern tone,”
“Don’t be so prejudiced when you speak, don’t go too far! You don’t have the right to speak without investigating, so don’t make wild guesses about other people’s Affairs!”
Of course, Fang Ling knew that Li Jingjing would be unhappy. She had stepped on his tail and poked his sore spot.
Before the others could reply, Fang Ling added,”
“You don’t have to remind me of that. I have evidence for my words. If you don’t believe me, you can check it online. It’s probably still on the trending list.”
As expected, Fang Ling’s words caused an even greater stir, and she achieved the result she wanted.
The older generation immediately criticized and reprimanded Li Jingjing, saying that he didn’t care about his own face and the face of his family.
She said that the Li family must not accept such a shameless woman and that she should stay as far away as possible. She did not want to ruin the Li family’s good reputation.
Everyone’s spearheads were all directed at Li Jingjing, and their words were getting more and more unpleasant. Li Jingjing suddenly became the target of public criticism.
Some of the younger cousins went online with their phones and found Chi Luoxi’s name out of curiosity.
Then, they all widened their eyes in shock and started to discuss in low voices.
The way he looked at Li Jingjing became critical, puzzled, puzzled, and also filled with an indescribable disgust and disgust.
