The Genius Doctor, My Wife, Is Valiant Chapter 433 - Jing Qian isn’t my sister?

Chapter 433: 433: Jing Qian isn’t my sister?

“Don’t you think that you have caused enough trouble? If it weren’t for you, who went on saying the wrong things, why would our house be burned down? You better pray that it wasn’t Zhan Lichuan who did it. If it was him, our lives after this wouldn’t be any better than right now!”
Mother Jing cried out in anger when she saw the burnt house.
“What should we do then?! Are we just going to let it go?! Huhuhuhuhu….. If I knew that this would happen, I should have just let her drown in the river!”
“Mum—”
Jing Lu was surprised to hear what was just said. She stared at Mother Jing with her wide eyes.
“What did you just say? In the river? Why was she at the river?”
Mother Jing was stunned as she realized that she blurted something she shouldn’t have.
She got nervous and turned toward her husband for help. Then, she noticed that Father Jing was glaring at her. He looked as if he was about to slap her across the face and throw her down the stairs. Mother Jing gulped and didn’t answer Jing Lu. Instead, she told Father Jing, “Xiao Lu is a smart girl. She would know what to do. This is related to the future of the Jing family. She would know what is important for us.”
Father Jing sneered and said, “I think that Xiao Lu is much smarter than you. That girl was just another daughter. We already took care of her all these years, but you managed to turn her into our enemy in the end. Dumbass!”
Mother Jing kept her mouth shut.
“Mum, what is happening? Jing Qian isn’t my true sister?”
When she thought of Jing Qian’s appearance that was beautiful beyond words, Jing Lu could feel her blood flowing in a reverse manner.
“She… she is just a child that I found. I saw someone trying to drown her at the river, so I decided to save her. Then, I kept her with me all this while. I didn’t know that I was pregnant with you back then and so I treated her as my own. After that, I gave birth to you in the end, and I even had Jing Jie later on, but I couldn’t just abandon her.”
Jing Lu had thousands of thoughts running through her mind, and she finally understood why her parents were always on her side.
She had always been worried that her parents would abandon her because Jing Qian had such a good marriage. Hence, she always acted like an obedient daughter. However, she just found out that there was no need for her to pretend because Jing Qian wasn’t even the biological child of the Jing family.
“Mum, you may not be Big Sister’s real parents, but they do say that the ones caring for them should have more credit. Not only did you choose to become her parent, you even jumped into the river just to save her. You were the one who gave her the chance of a rebirth. She should be grateful to you all her life, or else, she would be despised by society.”
“Jing Lu, I hope that you would stop thinking that way,” Father Jing said in a stern tone.
“Why?”
“Our company should have ended, but it was Qianqian who saved it by agreeing to marry into the Zhan family. It should be considered that she has already paid us back by sacrificing her marriage. Therefore, we don’t have much reason to feel good about ourselves morally. Plus, we wouldn’t be getting any benefits if we had a bad relationship with her. Fortune comes with silence. This is what a businessman should do. If you want to inherit the company in the future, you should always think about the bigger picture first.”
Jing Lu bit onto her lips. She didn’t agree with what her father had just said, but in order to become the heir to the family’s company, she still nodded her head.
“Alright. I’ll make sure to be nice to my older sister, but I’m not sure if she would still want to talk to me.”
Seeing how sad her daughter was and how she was still recovering from a leg fracture, Mother Jing got even angrier.

Jing Jie looked at the buildings, which resembled a palace, before him. His eyes that were usually a little lost and confused were now filled with shock and surprise.
“Big Sister….. Small house?”
His big sister just told him that she has a small house nearby where he can stay since he ran away from his parent’s home.
