Chapter 659: Chapter 657: Kind Father 36
Mrs. Chen hugged Chen Xue and Chen Chen, asking if they were okay, then looked at Chen Yijia with hurt eyes, as if asking why she did this.
The group of teenagers were telling their parents that they saw Chen Yijia push Chen Xue and Chen Chen into the pool, with a fierce expression. With eyewitnesses present, Chen Yijia had no way to defend herself.
Everyone expected her to panic, but unexpectedly, she looked at everyone and smiled.
Mr. Chen was furious and rushed over to slap her.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yijia pushed him forcefully into the pool. She stood by the poolside, looking down at Mr. Chen struggling in the water: "Did you see? This is how I push someone."
Everyone was momentarily silenced, staring at Chen Yijia in disbelief, she was so defiant.
"Jiajia, he’s your father, how could you treat him like this?" Mrs. Chen was filled with anger, completely incredulous, yet there was a hint of glee in her eyes.
With what Chen Yijia did today, the Chen Family could no longer tolerate her, she was an adult now, time to leave.
Chen Xue and Chen Chen were also shocked, they didn’t expect Chen Yijia to be so capable!
Mr. Chen tried to climb up, but Chen Yijia pushed him down again: "My dear father, you saw it right, this is how I push someone into a pool. Also, I’m not so stupid to do such a thing at my own birthday party. Dad, you manage such a large company, can’t you see this? How come it’s not bankrupt yet, either the world is full of foolish people, or everyone is just very kind."
Her words left Mr. Chen feeling stabbed in the heart.
The onlookers felt a jolt, they somehow felt criticized too. In fact, many had truly believed it was Chen Yijia who pushed them, such things weren’t unheard of.
But with Chen Yijia’s current reaction, it was clearly not her.
Unreasonably being scolded, and unable to retaliate.
At this time, Ah Chen had already arrived beside Chen Yijia.
Others took the opportunity to pull Mr. Chen up, and Chen Yijia didn’t argue further.
"Chen Yijia, are you looking to end up in jail?" Mr. Chen’s face was cold, already planning to make her suffer.
"Dear Dad, don’t rush." Chen Yijia only touched her crystal necklace, "It’s such a lively scene, why don’t I perform a show for everyone."
Chen Yijia took off the necklace, had people turn off most lights, pressed on the back of the necklace, and a projection appeared in the dark, showing a scene that seemed to be today’s birthday party.
The images kept flashing, finally returning to normal playback speed when it reached the pool.
Chen Xue and Chen Chen’s expressions changed dramatically, and the faces of the teenagers who spoke earlier were also filled with panic, how could this be?
Then everyone saw Chen Xue and Chen Chen holding a ring and bracelet respectively, boastfully telling Chen Yijia that this was sent by their dad for fun.
Chen Yijia immediately recognized them as her mother’s belongings and tried to seize them.
The siblings led Chen Yijia to the pool area, and as she tried to grab them, they suddenly fell into the pool.
The venue fell silent.
More people stared at the crystal necklace in Chen Yijia’s hand, wondering which company it was from.
The originally angry Mr. Chen was also momentarily stunned upon seeing this, yet still looked at Chen Yijia with disgust.
Chen Yijia was unsurprised, Mr. Chen wasn’t truly clueless, he simply disliked her.
"Father, since I’m an adult now, please divide the assets due to me, I’ll move out, no longer an eyesore to you, and you won’t have to worry about those two being bullied by me."
She emphasized "bullied" particularly hard, was she truly bullying them?
Mr. Chen hurriedly apologized to everyone, indicating today’s hospitality was lacking, and next would deal with private matters.
Today was a complete disgrace.
With things as they were, it was definitely impossible to send Chen Yijia to jail for a lesson, but dividing the property wouldn’t be easy either.
Chen Yijia also knew, she could only strive for what she could.
As the guests were about to disperse, suddenly a voice rang out: "Chen Ming, is this how you take care of Jiajia?"
Everyone turned to look, seeing a young man in his twenties standing there, his face not looking well.
Chen Yijia was also somewhat astonished, Jiajia? Who else would call her Jiajia?
Seeing this young man, she felt somewhat familiar but couldn’t recall.
Ah Chen, upon witnessing this, had more speculation about Chen Yijia going abroad, perhaps she didn’t leave quietly but was taken away. Previously, she heard this young man chatting with others, those people seemed to flatter him, possibly based abroad.
"Jiajia doesn’t recognize me? I’m your cousin, we played together as kids." Jing Zhou walked to Chen Yijia, "You didn’t want to contact us, we thought you were doing well. This time I came back to negotiate business, coincidentally for your eighteenth birthday, decided to visit, didn’t expect you’re not doing well. If you weren’t doing well, why didn’t you call? Even if you didn’t feel close to us, we wouldn’t let you be bullied."
Chen Yijia was filled with confusion, helplessly saying: "I called, but when you heard my voice, you hung up."
Jing Zhou frowned, already realizing something was wrong: "How many times did you call over the years?"
"Twice," Chen Yijia replied softly, having tried twice. She didn’t contact her grandpa and uncles anymore afterward, as they all emigrated, avoiding entangling with relatives back home was understandable.
Jing Zhou asked again: "Have you received our calls over the years?"
Chen Yijia hesitated, shook her head: "No."
Jing Zhou closed his eyes, fury evident: "I see!"
Chen Yijia sensed something wasn’t right: "Did you call me over the years?"
"Every year, even if you seemed annoyed, grandpa would call wanting to hear from you. But you were always dismissive, didn’t want to talk much. You’re unwilling to go abroad, or have us visit you. Knowing you’re doing well, we didn’t want to bother you, afraid you’d dislike it."
Chen Yijia’s eyes widened, she shook her head swiftly: "No, I never received your calls."
"I have your phone number here, let me read it to you, see if it’s right." Jing Zhou reported the number, seeing Chen Yijia shake her head, he laughed bitterly, "Well, well done, don’t know who dared to impersonate you."
"Good, used AI technology, right?"
With such technology, mimicking Chen Yijia’s voice was all too easy, just look at how advanced technology is nowadays. Not just voices, even videos can be altered.
If he hadn’t called Chen Yijia beforehand, followed his business partner to visit his cousin, he might never have known this.
His gaze turned to Chen Ming and Mrs. Chen, who was responsible?
Mrs. Chen was in a panic, she never imagined it would be exposed like this.
Her!
Jing Zhou had already guessed.
But he didn’t believe Chen Ming knew nothing!
Ah Chen was also quite shocked, truly intriguing, even using AI technology to deceive Chen Yijia and her grandfather’s family.
Onlookers all had a gossiping expression, feeling today’s trip was worthwhile.
Understanding the truth, Chen Yijia cried openly, realizing she wasn’t abandoned. Besides having a good friend, she had family.
Ah Chen was caught off guard when Chen Yijia hugged him, hearing her voice full of joy and sorrow, he didn’t push her away.
Li Feiwei stood aside, filled with envy, he never hugged the senior himself, but silently hypnotized himself to bear it, understand, girls often do this, strive to be a sensible junior.
