The Real Young Miss's Secret Identities Revealed Chapter 24
Advertisement
The Xu Parents' expressions immediately turned ugly. "Humph, since Jiang Man isn't marrying yet, you can't keep asking us for betrothal gifts, right?"
Jiang Li, who was sitting at the side obediently, suddenly said, "Yes, uncle and auntie. Actually, I've been looking forward to getting married as soon as possible."
"Did you hear that? It's Manman who wants to get married, so why are you still rejecting her? !"
Mother Xu was so aggressive that Father Jiang and Mother Jiang's expressions turned ugly. They hinted at Jiang Li to change her words several times, but Jiang Li ignored them.
This damn girl!
Jiang Li even added fuel to the fire. As she spoke, she smiled sweetly at Xu Sijian. "I like Young Master Xu very much too."
Just then, the door was opened again.
Fu Jiuxiao came in and saw this scene. Jiang Li was smiling sweetly at Xu Sijian.
Fu Jiuxiao's face was cold as he stared straight at Jiang Li. His grayish-blue eyes were filled with a chilling light.
Jiang Li,"..."
What was Fu Jiuxiao doing at this time?
Thinking that Jiang Li was acting as the cute and weak Jiang Man at that moment, she immediately lowered her head and pretended to be frightened.
Jiang Li did not want him to know that she was doing such a demeaning thing.
At this moment, Fu Jiuxiao's fully armed bodyguards rushed into the Jiang family and surrounded the Jiang parents, the Xu family, and Jiang Li, who all were sitting in the living room. Everyone suddenly became nervous.
The Jiang parents were so scared that their legs went weak.
"Ninth Master, why are you here?"
"Sit, sit."
"..."
Fu Jiuxiao did not say a word.
Everyone present suddenly felt a lot of pressure. They did not know why Ninth Master, who had always lived in seclusion, suddenly appeared.

It looked like he was here to confiscate the family.
No one dared to say anything. They looked at him with trembling eyes.
"Am I disturbing you? If I'm late, you'll already be the Young Madam of the Xu family."
Fu Jiuxiao's voice was cold.
Jiang Li had no choice but to look up, showing a very touched and expectant expression.
"Yes, being able to marry brother Sijian is Manman's greatest happiness. Ninth Master, are you here to congratulate me? You are really fast."
Fu Jiuxiao looked at her expressionlessly.
"You can marry him today, but I will make you a widow tomorrow."
As soon as Fu Jiuxiao said that, the faces of the Xu family turned pale.
Mother Xu opened her mouth and stammered, "Ninth Master Fu... What do you mean?"
Fu Jiuxiao did not speak, but his eyes showed his impatience.
Mother Xu and Father Xu immediately shut up.
This guy was obviously here to stop the marriage.
Everyone knew that Fu Jiuxiao was a ruthless person. He was the living king of Hades in Sea City, and they could not afford to offend him unless it was absolutely necessary.
The two of them immediately whispered to each other and made up their minds. They raised their heads and forced a smile on their faces.
"Manman, uncle and auntie suddenly remembered that there are still some things at home. Let's talk about the marriage another day, another day..."
Before Jiang Li could react, they had already fled with Xu Sijian, forgetting to say goodbye.
"Ah... You're... leaving just like that?"
Father Jiang and Mother Jiang were dumbstruck, feeling conflicted.
Their Manman did not have to be forced to marry for the time being. It was a good thing.
However, she would not be able to get the 100 million yuan betrothal gift. It was a disaster!

The two of them looked like they were about to cry again. However, with Fu Jiuxiao around, they did not dare to act out. They got up and pretended to smile.
"Ninth Master, please take a seat. We will make you a cup of tea..."
After saying that, they went to the kitchen, and soon, only the two of them were left in the living room.
Jiang Li was very confused. She was clearly Jiang Man's appearance now, so why did Fu Jiuxiao stop her marriage?
Could it be... that he actually liked Jiang Man?
Jiang Li was somewhat displeased.
However, she, Jiang Man, was not Jiang Li, so she had to continue acting.
She pretended to cry.
"Brother-in-law, you are too much. You didn't let me marry Yunze, and now you don't even let me marry Young Master Xu marry. What are you thinking? !"
Jiang Li snorted and got up to leave. "Sister is still upstairs. I'll go get her."
However, before she took two steps, her wrist was pulled by Fu Jiuxiao. She lost her balance and sat on his lap.
Fu Jiuxiao's slender fingers rested on her beautiful chin. It was rare for him to look so relaxed with a hint of mockery.
"Calling me brother-in-law... What kind of new interest is this?"
Jiang Li stopped crying.
While she was still in a daze, Fu Jiuxiao suddenly reached out and pulled off her headband. Then, he used his thumb to wipe off her overly pink lipstick.
"You are you. Why are you pretending to be someone else? This braid, this dress doesn't suit you at all. It's too ugly."
Jiang Li was stunned. Suddenly, she remembered her previous life.
She often pretended to be Jiang Man just to please her parents.
She was quite good at it. No one had ever recognized her, but... Fu Jiuxiao could tell at a glance.
