Chapter 246: 246: Breach of Contract

This was a classic example of Zhan Lichuan standing up for Jing Qian.

The old Jing couple could accept the fact that the other party would not acknowledge them as his father and mother-in-law even if they sold their daughter to Zhan Lichuan, since he was someone who was from a totally different level than them.

Plus, as long as they maintained a good relationship with him, anything that he may have dropped or left behind would be enough to maintain the Jing family’s fortune.
Therefore, they definitely wouldn’t dare to offend their ‘boss.’

But Qianqian’s situation was a little different.

“As for Qianqian… Young Master, she may be married to the Zhan family, but she is still our daughter.
Since we are the ones who birthed and raised her, she can’t forget her parents just because she has turned into a phoenix after leaving the bird’s nest.
This… This isn’t right, no matter what…”

Zhan Lichuan sat upright in his wheelchair.
His sharp, stern eyes were so frightening that as soon as Father Jing finished the sentence, he didn’t dare look straight into the other person’s eyes, trying to look away.

If Jing Qian were to judge his battle skills with looks, she was sure that Zhan Lichuan’s power was similar to a bodyguard’s ability.

He may be in a wheelchair, but his aura now was at least 3 meters tall.

From her perspective, only Z would come close to him.

“Mr.
Jing, you may have forgotten, which is why I should remind you.
Item 2 Article 18 states that as soon as Jing Qian gets married to me, she would become part of the Zhan family and will be given the authority to come and go as she pleases.
At the same time, she also has the right to visit her maiden family as she pleases.

“Jing Qian has the right to use the alimony provided by the Zhan family how she sees fit, but the Jing family is not allowed to force her into it if she refuses to care for her maiden family.
The Jing family is definitely not allowed to ask the Zhan family for more funding in Jing Qian’s name.

“The Zhan family is the one who had made the massive investment, and even though the Jing family didn’t use her as a trade, they have referred to this marriage as a business deal.
Therefore, once she becomes part of the Zhan family, she no longer belongs to the Jing family.

“In other words, Jing Qian’s life is no longer relevant to anyone in the Jing family.
If any of you try to force Jing Qian, in any form, to get her to do something that she refuses to, it will be regarded as a breach of contract by the Jing family.”

After hearing Zhan Lichuan’s words, the Jing couple’s faces turned pale.

Both of them stared at Zhan Lichuan blankly as he emotionlessly read out the clause of the contract.
The way that he was saying these words, it was as if this was really part of the contract.

Back then, in order to get financial aid from the Zhan family to help with their business, they only thought of how they would be getting unlimited resources by selling off their daughter.
From their point of view, they would be the ones benefitting from this deal, which was why they signed the contract without reading it in great detail.

However, when they heard that this was one of the things written in the contract, both of them had a bad feeling about this.

Mother Jing was the first one who could no longer hold it in.

“That’s not right! You can’t say this, Young Master! Jing Qian is our daughter.
We are the ones who gave birth to her and raised her.
She is obligated to care for us as we turn old.
This has always been how the world works.
You can’t stop her from being our daughter just because she got married to the Zhan family, right?”

It was obvious from the look on Zhan Lichuan’s face that he was getting impatient.
However, he was still slowly explaining it to them.

“The so-called duty to care for her is your obligation to provide her with warmth, food, and education depending on your abilities.
As for her duties to care for you, it is based on the ability of your children to provide the necessary care for her parents.
The ‘necessary care’ as mentioned doesn’t mean that the child has to give up parts of what she has or give everything to her parents unconditionally.
It only means she has to provide her parents with their basic needs and to care for them physically and mentally.”
