Transmigrated into the Cannon Fodder's Daughter - Chapter 17.1
Editor: Aaghna
According to the sparrow spirit’s plot, Li Xiao’s grandmother was a woman who preferred boys over girls. In the beginning, when Xu Manqin had just married in and was considered a lowly bride, Madam Li had treated her decently. However, when the Xu family began to decline and the Li family began to prosper, Madam Li’s attitude changed. In addition, Xu Manqin had been married for over 10 years but had only given birth to Li Xiao, a girl. Eventually, Madam Li began to view Xu Manqin as less than human.
From then, Madam Li spent her days in the Li family home abstaining from meat and praying to Buddha for a male successor for the company. Five years ago, when Madam Li saw Qianxing, who was a carbon copy of Li Nanjue, she was ecstatic. In her eyes, Zhan Jiayin, who had given birth to twins, had greatly benefited the Li family. Hence, she didn’t want her precious baby, Qianxing, to be seen as an illegitimate child. She relentlessly pushed Zhan Jiayin forward to replace the eggless hen, Xu Manqin.
Once Madam Li and Zhan Jiayin’s common enemy, Xu Manqin, disappeared, the mother and daughter-in-law duo began to fall apart. Madam Li’s husband died early, and she couldn’t stand her son, Li Nanjue, treating Zhan Jiayin better than her. After fighting with Zhan Jiayin, Madam Li returned to her hometown to pray.
Of course, Li Xiao didn’t like her sexist grandmother. In her grandmother’s eyes, all the Li family assets were set aside for her precious baby, Li Qianxing. As for Li Xiao and Li Qianfei, the two daughters, a little bit of dowry would be enough to make them go away. Although Madam Li was determined to add to Zhan Jiayin’s troubles, they had a common enemy, so they could get along for now.
Hence, Li Xiao had to send a copy of the photos to Madam Li.
Li Xiao developed several photos for Madam Li, but didn’t send them through the mail. Even if Li Xiao was careful and cautious, if she sent them by mail, she would steal leave traces, which wouldn’t be good for her. Instead, Li Xiao handed the pictures to Zhang Yan, her personal express delivery service. This way, there would be no traces left behind.
Out of the 34 photos Zhang Yan had taken, 10 had been meticulously selected to send to Li Nanjue and Madam Li. However, Li Xiao didn’t want to waste the 24 leftover photos.
She could just put them directly on the internet! Ren Shaotang’s emotional love story had yet to have an audience! Wasn’t that just pitiful? Well, leave it to your fellow citizens to cherish your true love just like they had cherished Li Nanjue and Zhan Jiayin’s love!
However, Li Xiao couldn’t put it online herself. She’d be counting seconds until the Ren family blocked her IP address. Moreover, Li Xiao’s half-brother was the world’s number one hacker.
Li Xiao had to find someone to help her!
After learning from Ai Wen that the financial backer of Lu Zhi was targeting the Ren family, Li Xiao suddenly came up with an idea.
Lu Zhi’s financial backer was Jiang Chao, Runwei Technology Corporation’s CEO. Runwei was China’s number one privately-owned communications company. She was the second-largest shareholder of the phone business. To top it off, Jiang Chao was the only woman in the top five richest list of China. Her life was legendary. At a young age, she inherited her parents’ company and had a daughter. When her husband had an affair, Jiang Chao crushed him and raised her daughter by herself. But she hadn’t treated herself poorly and had her fair share of male partners to accompany her.
Wait, wait! Jiang Chao’s name sounds familiar!
Li Xiao grabbed the sparrow spirit who was typing. “What do you remember about Jiang Chao?”
The sparrow spirit thought, before saying, “I’ve got it. Her daughter is like you. She’s also Qianfei’s rival in love and obstructs the male lead and female lead’s love. Her name appears in the summary, so she must have a pretty important role.”
Li Xiao was silent. “…”
Duh, the two of them could band together to become a team of malicious females!
Naturally, Li Xiao didn’t have Jiang Chao’s contact information, but Ai Wen did. Li Xiao was able to contact her through Jiang Chao. She initially thought it would take a bit of persuasion to get Jiang Chao to meet her. Perhaps, because they had a similar enemy, Jiang Chao agreed to meet Li Xiao.
