Chapter 77: The Jiang Family’s Past

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The worst thing was that she and her grandmother had the same fate. They were both deceived by a jerk. If she hadn’t entered this body, the Song Corporation would have been occupied by Wang Yaotian sooner or later.

Song Meiyu had always kept the grudges from her previous life in her heart. The scene of her mother dying tragically in front of her made her unable to sleep well every night. But because of the two children, she had always endured it. She knew that she was not a match for the current Jiang family, so
she came with the resolve to die.

“What about Old Master Jiang? Doesn’t he feel any guilt towards my mother?” The thing that made her the most angry was that Song Meiyu had wanted to kill Old Master Jiang but was captured by the Jiang family. They didn’t show any mercy and wanted to kill Song Meiyu directly. If she hadn’t been
rescued by the Ye family, Song Meiyu would be dead now.

Yan Cheng shook his head and said, “In the face of benefits, kinship is nothing. Your mother has something in her hands that they have always wanted.”
Song Jiaren took out the jade pendant hanging on her chest and said, “You’re talking about this, right?”

Yan Cheng nodded and said, “This jade pendant is the symbol of control over the Dark City. Back then, you could mobilize all the underground organizations with this jade pendant.”

Song Jiaren understood what he meant. The moment he finished speaking, Song Jiaren said, “You mean you can’t use it now?”

Yan Cheng nodded his head in admiration and said, “This jade pendant hasn’t appeared for many years. A few years ago, a person who became Master Jiu appeared in the Dark City. Now, he’s in charge of the Dark City.”

Before he could finish speaking, Song Jiaren already understood what he meant. Although this Mr. Jiu controlled Dark City, his control was not legitimate. She guessed, “I’m afraid the person who came to my house to steal the jade pendant was sent by him.”

Yan Cheng nodded. This jade pendant was what every person who wanted control of Dark City wanted. As long as they obtained the jade pendant, they would have a reason to fight against Master Jiu head-on. If Master Jiu wanted to firmly assume control of Dark City, he would have to find this jade
pendant.

Song Jiaren suddenly felt that the jade pendant in her hand was a little heavy. She asked in confusion, “Then how did this jade pendant reach the Song family?”
This question was also unknown to Yan Cheng. The jade pendant that had disappeared for a few years seemed to have suddenly appeared in the Song family. No one knew the reason behind it, and even Yan Cheng did not find out from the investigation.
Song Jiaren suddenly thought of a question and approached him to ask, “I remember you also wanted this jade pendant back then, Are you also interested in Dark City?”

Yan Cheng did not answer her question. Instead, he rubbed his hand against her face. After not touching the mask, he asked in surprise, “How did you do it?”

That was right, she was still wearing a mask. This man talked to her so naturally that she had forgotten about this matter. She asked, “Answer me first. How did you recognize me?”

Yan Cheng’s hand moved to her eyes. Song Jiaren blinked in discomfort and heard him say, “It can’t fool me.”

The distance between the two of them was extremely close, and Song Jiaren suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Her gaze drifted for a moment and she didn’t dare to look at Yan Cheng. After a long while, she suddenly took a step back and tried hard to overcome this strange feeling. When she thought of
everything the Jiang family had done to her mother, she said angrily, “I won’t see my mother first. I want the Jiang family to disappear.”

She had nothing to return Song Meiyu’s love with. She could use the Jiang family’s demise as a gift.
Song Meiyu only wanted to die with Old Master Jiang, but Song Jiaren wanted the entire Jiang family to pay the price.
Yan Cheng looked at her determined and confident look and smiled slightly. “Do you need my help?”

Song Jiaren shook her head. She knew that if she handed it to Yan Cheng to do, it would be very easy to get rid of the Jiang family. However, she wanted to handle this matter herself. A sly look flashed across her eyes as she said, “If there’s anything I can’t resolve, I’ll have to rely on you. After all, you are
my backer.”

Yan Cheng was naturally willing to pamper her and granted her every request.

This made Song Jiao feel a little embarrassed. She immediately said seriously, “Tl help you detoxify the poison. The herbs we found last time are almost all gone. You must have used something to suppress the toxicity when you stood up and walked, right? I suggest you not use it too many times.
Anything used to suppress the toxicity will harm your body..”
