Chapter 1212
Ci Shang was about to speak when Melody Fox spoke first,” It’s because of me.”
It was not until Fox that Ci Gaoyang noticed the existence of Melody Fox.
He sized up Melody Fox. After confirming that he had never seen her before, he frowned suspiciously and asked, “Who are you?”
Cishang introduced on behalf of Melody Fox, “Her surname is Fox, and her name is Melody Fox. Jesse is her master.” Ci Gaoyang was stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud.
He patted Ci Shang’s shoulder and said, “Second Brother, why do you even believe such nonsense? Ever since Jesse passed away, countless people have come to say that her disciple wanted to curry favor with her. There are at least 80 if not 100. Why do you even believe such words?”
After saying that, Ci Gaoyang shook his head and said, “It’s fine if you believe her nonsense easily, but you actually hit Luoluo because of such a liar. I think you should quickly apologize to Luoluo, lest you, her second uncle, lose your dignity in her eyes.”
Ci Shang said with an ugly expression, “Miss Fox, she’s not a liar. She’s really Jesse’s disciple. I’ve seen her work. She does know French embroidery and her embroidery skills are very exquisite. She’s even more than Jesse.
Ci Gaoyang shook his head again.
“Second Brother, you’ve been sick for too long. You don’t know how dangerous society has become. If she wants to fake it, there are many ways.”
“Did you forget that Jesse did mention to us before she left that she took in a young lady as her disciple? That young lady is her! The ‘Melody’ that she often talked about surpassing her master!”
Ci Gaoyang recalled for a moment.
Melody…
Melody Fox…
His heart tightened and he finally began to size up Melody Fox.
The woman’s face was covered in red spots. Her face was really unsightly.
However, this aura did not seem like an ordinary person.
However, Ci Gaoyang quickly made up his mind.
Even if the other party was really Ci Yu’s disciple, he would not admit his identity.
Who knew if she was here to take advantage of the
situation or to covet the huge assets left behind by Ci Yu?
Thinking of this, Ci Gaoyang lied through his teeth, “What Melody? I don’t remember such a thing!”
“You-“
Ci Luo also walked forward.
“Dad, don’t talk so much. Beat this troublemaker up and throw him out!”
Zishang spaghetti’s color sank, blocking in front of Melody Foxspaghetti.
“Let’s see who dares!”
“Dad…”
Ci Luo tugged at Ci Gaoyang’s sleeve and urged, “Hurry up and chase this b*tch out!”
“Ci Luo!” Ci Shang took a few steps forward and slapped Ci Luo’s face again.
“I think you don’t have any memory at all. Have you forgotten what I just said? I’ll hit you once if you scold Miss Fox! Looks like you really don’t remember to eat!”
Ci Luo covered her face. She could not believe that Ci Gaoyang still dared to hit her when he was present. “Dad!!!”
Ci Gaoyang narrowed his eyes and looked at Ci Shang coldly.
“Ci Shang, what do you mean? How can you hit my
daughter in front of my spaghetti? You’re slapping my face! Looks like you’re really going to fall out with our family for a liar! Or are you the one who invited this person to use her to fight for our family’s assets?”
Ci Shang originally wanted to give Ci Gaoyang spaghetti stones.
He did not want to openly fall out with Ci Gaoyang in front of so many outsiders.
But now, he was really annoyed!
“The family’s assets? Ci Gaoyang, ask yourself this. Have I touched even a single cent of the inheritance left behind by Jesse? Didn’t all this money enter your pocket when I was sick?”
When Ci Gaoyang felt the gazes of the people around him, his expression changed drastically.
“Ci Shang! What the f*ck are you talking about?! The money of Jesse is indeed with me, but I’ve never used it on myself. It’s all used to protect the works she left behind and the repair of the house! You’ve never been in charge of the matters in the house. You don’t know anything at all. Stop defaming me here!”
“Is that so? If that’s the case, why did you charge everyone their tickets when they came here to visit? Isn’t this also sucking Jesse’s blood? You clearly know that Jesse is the most low-key and never earns money that she shouldn’t have. The money she earns is all earned by her own ability. If she was alive, she would never allow such a thing to happen!”
Ci Gaoyang was not in a hurry and retorted, “Do you know how much Jesse yuan is left? She loves doing charity the most. When she was alive, she had already donated most of her money. There’s not much left. If I don’t charge tickets, how can my family repair it? This family has long been ruined!”
Ci Gaoyang’s righteous manner made Ci Shang so angry that he could barely speak.
Melody Fox patted Ci Shang’s arm, indicating that he should speak.
She looked at Ci Gaoyang with a faint smile and said, “Are you sure Master didn’t leave much money behind? Did you really not spend a single cent of the money Master left behind on yourself?”
“No! Not a single point!” Ci Gaoyang glared at Melody Fox and said, “Also, don’t talk about masters here. No one is your master!”
Melody Fox said noncommittally, “Words are useless. Please take out the account book. Since the money was spent on this family, there must be an account book or a spending record, right?”
Ci Gaoyang’s eyes widened. “There’s no account book! Even if there is, why should I show it to an outsider like you?”
“Dad, don’t talk nonsense with her. Just teach her a lesson and throw her out!” Ci Luo quickly added fuel to the fire.
Ci Gaoyang was also very annoyed that Melody Fox had been aggressive and asking about the money.
Therefore, when he heard Ci Luo’s words, he immediately ordered, “The few of you, attack together. Push her to the ground and tie her up!”
“Yes!”
“Stop! Let’s see who dares!” Ci Shang spread his thin arms and said, “Whoever dares to touch her will have to step over my corpse!”
Zishang’s wife was also on the same side as Zishang.
Although she did not say anything, the two steps closer to Melody Fox explained everything.
“The two of you… are you really going to go against me today? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll beat you up too?”
Ci Shang said coldly, “I’m not going against you. I just want to make things clear! As long as you explain the matter clearly, I won’t waste my breath on you! Just like Miss Fox said, please take out the account book immediately!” Ci Gaoyang was furious.
“Alright, you’re very good! I was wondering why an unknown disciple suddenly appeared. It seems that this was all
planned by the two of you!”
As Ci Gaoyang spoke, he said to the onlookers, “Everyone, open your eyes and take a look! Look at how this younger brother of mine connects with outsiders to bully this older brother of mine! Everyone, do you think I should teach a lesson to a guy who only cares about money and doesn’t have any kinship?!”
