The Fake Heiress's Inner Thoughts Were Heard by Her Entire Family

Chapter 103

Jing Zeqian's expression was so pleading that Jing Zejun couldn't bear to interrupt, and he smiled as he looked at the two of them.

Jing Yi pondered seriously, waiting for her to look up again. Jing Zeqian's eyes were full of hope.

Then Jing Yi said, "No."

Jing Zeqian was somewhat taken aback. "Huh? Why? Didn't you want to know?" Jing Yi looked innocent. "If I wanted to know, I'd just ask uncle directly. Why should I listen to your guesses?"

Jing Zeqian was stunned, but couldn't argue. He collapsed lifelessly onto the sofa. "My lifetime's reputation!" Jing Yi looked at him with disdain. "What 'lifetime's reputation' do you have?"

She then turned to look at Jing Zejun. "Jun Jun, do you know why uncle was acting so strange just now?"

Jing Zejun looked apologetically at Jing Zeqian on the sofa and said to Jing Yi, "It might be because of how you addressed him."

Jing Yi asked puzzled, "How I addressed him?" Jing Zeqian didn't hold back anymore and added, "Didn't you already start calling mom 'Mom'? Dad is waiting for you to change how you address him too."

Jing Yi had a sudden realization, finally understanding this matter. But...

[Calling mom 'Mom' before was easier because the atmosphere was right. But to suddenly call dad 'Dad' out of nowhere...]

Jing Yi cupped her chin, looking troubled. "Jun Jun, how can I naturally change how I address him?"

Jing Zeqian beside her suddenly sat up. "I'll trade you a plan for deleting that video!" Jing Yi glanced at him. "How are you still not giving up on that?"

How could he give up when his lifetime's reputation was at stake?

But Jing Yi wasn't interested in his plan. She could imagine it wouldn't be a good idea.

Jing Zeqian didn't like hearing that. He said seriously, "I'm the CEO of a company after all. What's so hard about coming up with a perfect plan?" Jing Yi ignored him.

To prove himself, Jing Zeqian continued, "Let's do this: I'll go ask dad to give you a 'changing address fee'. Then won't you be able to naturally change how you address him?"

Jing Yi and Jing Zejun silently looked at him.

[Is this the perfect idea from the boss of a listed company?]

Jing Zeqian clearly didn't understand what they were thinking. "This is such a natural plan. Even if you can't naturally change how you address him, you can at least naturally call him 'sugar daddy'!"

Jing Yi quietly averted her gaze. Never mind, she'd think of something herself.

Jing Zejun said with a smile, "It's okay, Yi Yi. You can call him when you feel comfortable with it. Dad isn't so petty."

She understood. Jing Yi had never called anyone mom or dad since she was little. It was easier with Lin Ruiqing because they communicated more often, so it was relatively easy to say it. But with Jing Beicheng, it wasn't so simple.

Jing Yi nodded while cupping her chin, but her expression still looked troubled.

Meanwhile, Jing Beicheng, who was accompanying his wife for photos, was also a bit distracted.

Lin Ruiqing looked at him puzzled and asked with concern, "What's wrong? You've been preoccupied the whole way."

Jing Beicheng then told Lin Ruiqing about how Jing Yi still hadn't called him dad.

Lin Ruiqing found it a bit amusing. She hadn't expected that this was what he'd been thinking about all morning. "It's because you don't care enough about Yi Yi, that's why she hasn't changed how she addresses you." At least it wasn't Yi Yi's fault.

Jing Beicheng felt a bit wronged. He treated all four children the same. Although he didn't talk much usually, it didn't mean he didn't care.

Seeing his usually composed face showing rare emotion, Lin Ruiqing walked over with a smile. "Alright, just spend more time with Yi Yi, and she'll change how she addresses you. It doesn't matter if it takes an extra day or two."

Lin Ruiqing wasn't in a hurry. After all, Jing Yi had already changed how she addressed her. As for Jing Beicheng, not only did he not get to be called dad, but with one "mom" and one "uncle", people might think it was a blended family if they didn't know better.

Jing Beicheng thought for a moment, then asked seriously, "Do you think if I gave her a 'changing address fee', she would change how she addresses me?" Lin Ruiqing playfully slapped him. "Can't you put some effort into it?"

Jing Beicheng: Isn't this putting in effort? Last time he gave her pocket money, Jing Yi called him "sugar daddy"...

Lin Ruiqing could tell at a glance that there was no hope in him coming up with ideas on his own. "Oh right, there's a charity auction in a few days. Let's bring Yi Yi along. If she likes something, you can bid on it for her."

Jing Beicheng silently looked at his wife. Wasn't this just another way of giving money? It might even be less convenient than giving money directly.

Seeing Jing Beicheng's look, Lin Ruiqing knew what he was thinking. "You don't think my idea is good?" Her gaze carried a hint of warning.

Jing Beicheng immediately denied it. "No, I think it's a great idea." Lin Ruiqing gave him an exasperated look. "If not like this, how will Yi Yi feel your care? You're always wearing such a stern face."

Jing Beicheng felt a bit helpless. He had worn this face for decades, and now he was being complained about for having a sour expression?

Lin Ruiqing picked up the camera again. "Hurry up and stand still, I'm going to take the picture!" Jing Beicheng raised an eyebrow slightly. She complained about his sour face but still wanted to take his picture?

Though he only thought about it, Jing Beicheng quickly stood in the position Lin Ruiqing indicated.

In the Wang family study

A man sat at the desk. His temples showed some gray hair, indicating he was getting on in years.

Standing in front of him was none other than Wang Boqi, the man who had appeared multiple times at Jiang Miaomiao's apartment. The older man at the desk was his father, Wang He.

"Did you know Jiang Miaomiao was arrested?" His father's voice was calm, but Wang Boqi's heart skipped a beat. He bowed his head respectfully and replied, "Yes, I knew."

Wang He looked up at him. "You knew?" Wang Boqi explained, "Father, don't worry. Even if Jiang Miaomiao was arrested, she won't give me up. Besides, I didn't leave any evidence..."

Wang He's brows furrowed tightly as he sternly said, "Fool! You think the Jing family won't know it was you just because there's no evidence?" Looking at Wang Boqi's expression, he continued, "What? You think even if they know it was you, they can't do anything about it?"

Wang He knew his son very well and was extremely disappointed. "You only know they have no evidence. Do you realize that the past six months of planning have all been ruined? Do you know that there's no better opportunity to bring down the Jing family now?!"

For Wang Boqi's plan, he had prepared for a full six months. But at the crucial moment, Jing Zeqian didn't fall for the trap at all. Instead, he swiftly had Jiang Miaomiao arrested!

The Jing family must be on guard now. Bringing down the Jing family and taking over the Hengjing Group had become an even more difficult task. Yet his son was still pleased with himself because the other side had no evidence!

"If you had even a third of Jing Zeyou's ability, I wouldn't be afraid to step down even now!"

Wang Boqi's hands clenched at his sides, his downcast eyes filled with deep hatred. Jing Zeyou again! Was he destined to live in Jing Zeyou's shadow for his entire life?

In his father's eyes, he would never measure up to Jing Zeyou!
