After all, based on her understanding of her eldest sister, since she would choose to come back, she must have expected the situation at this time.
So it's not normal to have such an attitude of waiting to die.
At this time, Jing Cheng, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
"Is it just you?"
Her slightly ruthless lips parted slightly, and she said so in a hoarse and unspeakably magnetic voice.
Hearing this, the more than 10 people who got up and challenged Jingcheng were also stunned, not knowing what he meant.
Jingcheng's calm attitude inexplicably made Jingfeng a little uneasy.
Then he stabilized his mind. After all, as long as the incident of the year still exists, Jingcheng can't justify it no matter what, so Jingfeng once again occupies the high ground.
"Don't tell me you haven't repented yet!"
But upon hearing this, Jing Cheng just sighed slightly, as if he was a little disappointed.
Seeing this, even Jing Gu, who thought she had a chance to win, frowned, wondering why she was disappointed.
At the same time, Jing Chaomu, who knew that Jingcheng's goal had been completed, also slowly got up.
At this time, her face was no longer the softness she had when she was alone with Jing Cheng, but dignified and at the same time carrying a sense of distance that was difficult to bridge.
"About what happened back then, Jingcheng also gave an explanation."
Following Jing Chaomu's narration, everyone present also learned the promise that Jing Cheng made in the meeting room before.
Immediately, Jing Gu, who thought he was invulnerable to attack, was stunned.
He never expected that Jingcheng would do this.
Jing Gu originally thought that his plan had been launched quickly enough. After all, he was worried that as time progressed, Jing Cheng would think of some way to make her stay on her feet, so he directly launched an attack at the family banquet without giving any Jingcheng's buffer time.
But unexpectedly, Jingcheng was faster than him. Right after the funeral, he met Shimai and made a promise.
Although doing so did cut off all escape routes, there was no doubt that for at least a year, no one would be able to force her to leave the imperial capital.
And if Jing Cheng made a promise after this family banquet, it would not be able to achieve such an effect.
After all, it will change from taking the initiative to take responsibility to make up for mistakes, to being forced by the situation to do so. The impact will be completely different, at least it will still allow Jinggu to take advantage of it.
So why is she so fast?
Could it be that someone would attack her at the family banquet?
More importantly, since there is a hole card, why not throw it out earlier, and wait until everyone thinks that the overall situation is settled?
Is it to play tricks?
Jing Gu, who was thinking, suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
wrong.
She.. is for fishing.
Jing Gu, who understood, could not help but narrow his deep eye sockets.
Was put on the road ah.
Yes, Jingcheng is indeed for fishing.
After all, Jingcheng is only a supporting role in the original text, and she only briefly talks about her past, and the details are not specific, so many things need to be investigated by Jingcheng herself.
And she didn't have much time to waste on distinguishing between friends and foes, so she took this opportunity to see who the people who jumped out were.
But it is a pity that there is still no big fish to bite the bait after all.
But it is enough, since there are small fish eating bait, you can always find some traces by following the vines.
The more than 10 people who had stood up to ask Jingcheng to blame, were completely frozen in place, and their expressions turned sharply.
After all, the reason why they dared to make such an attack was because they believed that this plan was impeccable, and Jingcheng could only return to Tianhai in despair, even if they resented them, there was nothing they could do.
But now... following Jing Chaomu's words, the so-called invulnerability has naturally become empty talk, and it is logical for Jingcheng to stay in the imperial capital.
This also means that they will be the first targets of Jingcheng's retaliation...
154. Not Playing Enough
Following Jing Chaomu's words, this attack against Jing Cheng was naturally resolved.
Seeing the sudden reversal of the situation, the rest of the people knew that it was obviously Jingcheng who was fishing.
It seemed that she had expected that someone would attack her at the family banquet.
As for Jing Feng, who had the most polite words before, but also the most venomous, he naturally became the first bird caught out at this time.
Therefore, everyone present was also waiting for his reaction.
After all, since Jingcheng would want to lure out all those who challenge her, it also proves that she must have corresponding follow-up plans.
Jingfeng, who understood the status quo in just a moment, saw a drastic change in his expression.
He understands that he can't sit still at this time, otherwise if Jing Cheng can really stay safely, then he will definitely be the first target of revenge.
So immediately he planned to point out the loopholes in Jingcheng's promise, that is, five years had passed since the incident, why did she now think of coming back to take responsibility for her mistakes, so as to turn things around in his favor.
But at this moment, Jing Ge finally spoke lightly.
"That's it."
His voice was not too loud, but it was enough to silence the entire hall.
"How can a good family banquet become like this?"
Jingge said this while wiping his hands slowly with a napkin, and no one refuted in the quiet hall.
After all, when Jinglongxiang was in a coma and the second-generation boss hadn't returned, then Jingge, the son, was the one with the strongest voice.
So even though Jingfeng was unwilling, he could only endure it.
And he also knew that it was a done deal for Jingcheng to stay.
So he must also be ready for Jingcheng's revenge.
Next, the family banquet finally returned to its normal atmosphere, and it ended after midnight.
Immediately, many people discussed the transition, and as for Jing Cheng, he was preparing to go home.
But as soon as she left the hall, she ran into Jing Chaomu who was already waiting here.
Under the warm yellow corridor lights, she still looked so soft and dignified.
Seeing this, Jingcheng also said.
"Sister."
Regarding this, Jing Chaomu raised his eyebrows.
"I knew you were planning to go home after the family dinner, so I'll wait here ahead of time!"
Immediately, she explained that she had booked a seat elsewhere, and invited Jing Cheng to go with her.
But Jingcheng shook his head and refused.
Although Jing Chaomu felt a little regretful upon seeing this, he did not force himself.
After all, she also knew that Jing Cheng had just returned, and there were still many things to deal with.
So after a short regret, she still had that smile on her face.
"Then another day."
Jingcheng nodded.
"Ah."
Immediately, he seemed to think of something, and before leaving, Jing Chaomu added quite seriously.
"If you encounter any trouble that can't be solved, remember to come to my sister-in-law."
Hearing this, Jing Cheng naturally knew that what she said was about the aftermath of what happened at the family banquet just now, so he nodded.
Immediately, after bidding farewell to Jing Chaomu and stating that he would definitely accept the appointment another day, Jing Cheng left the Jing's mansion and boarded the vehicle that had been waiting here for a long time.
The driver was naturally Chu Long who followed Tianhai.
In the back seat, looking at the paper next to Chu Long that resembled a medical record, Jing Cheng asked faintly after thinking of something.
"Has the matter with your sister been settled?"
Chu Long replied respectfully.
"Thanks to the young lady, I have already been transferred to the imperial capital, and I will wait for the surgery next month."
Hearing this, after Jing Cheng nodded, he didn't ask any more questions.
---
After the dinner party, Jinggu politely declined the invitations of brothers and sisters from other clans and returned to the luxurious villa.
He was the one who ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on her as soon as Jing Cheng came back.
Also from then on, they began to plan the attack at the Zhong family banquet.
So this confrontation, it can be regarded as that he has fallen into the bottom line.
But the good news is that at least he has not exposed himself. Although as long as he continues to deal with Jingcheng, he will be exposed sooner or later, but undoubtedly the longer this matter lasts, the better it will be for him.
As for him at this time, it is impressive that at the previous family banquet, the 10 people headed by Jingfeng blamed Jingcheng.
Obviously according to their status, they should be elders, but at this moment they all lowered their heads respectfully.
"Young Master Gu, your subordinates are not doing well, so please punish me."
Jingfeng bowed, and said this with some shame.
And Jing Gu on the sofa didn't show any displeasure when he heard the words.
After all, it was not their responsibility for the failure of the plan. No one expected that Jingcheng would play such a trick.
So he picked up his wine glass and sipped it, and then he just said.
"I don't blame Uncle Feng, it's because I didn't think carefully."
Hearing this, Jingfeng immediately defended him.
"Young Master Gu's plan is already perfect, but Jingcheng is too cunning to be prepared."
After thinking about the scene at the previous family banquet, Jingfeng couldn't help gritting his teeth.
After all, now that I think about Jingcheng's calm attitude, it is completely confident.
So when she saw herself jumping out to blame, she probably laughed in her heart. .
But the deal is done, and it doesn't make much sense to say these things. What should be considered now is what to do next.
After all, I believe that soon, Jingcheng will take measures against them.
So Jingfeng also said.
"Gu Shao, what should we do next?"
Hearing this, Jing Ge, who was slowly swaying the red wine glass, narrowed his eyes and thought.
Seriously speaking, the situation at this time is very passive for Jingfeng and the others.
After all, Jingcheng's revenge was almost written on his face.
But Jingfeng and the others had no way to suppress Jingcheng in advance.
why?Because in any case they are elders, it is reasonable for you to use your elder status to accuse her, but if you really suppress her, then the elder status will be in the way instead. They couldn't stand their feet.
Although the Jing family pays attention to competition, it is also divided into generations.
Besides, Jing Cheng still has Jing Shen and Jing Chaomu on his head.
They may not care about normal competition, but if you cross generations, then they can give Jingcheng reasonable help.
So unless Jinggu personally took action, then as the third generation, it would be fine, and Jingfeng and the others were just subordinates.
But Jing Gu didn't want to expose himself so early, not entirely out of caution, more because he didn't play enough.
