Jiang Li did not expect her to play dumb with him. He was a little angry. He suppressed his anger and said more bluntly, “I asked you why you chose Zhui Guang’s song. Didn’t I promise you that I would help you stand out at the opening ceremony? Isn’t that enough?”
What was the difference between this and trying to pull off as Nian Nian?!
Jiang Zongnan and Tang Wanru rarely saw him so angry. They put down their bowls and chopsticks. “What are you talking about? What happened?”
Jiang Xianrou felt wronged and indignant after being questioned by him for no reason, so she explained before Jiang Li could. “My mentor asked me to represent the faculty at the opening ceremony of Qing University this year. Because this is the last year of my undergraduate studies, my mentor hoped that I could leave a good impression on my juniors, so I looked for Second Brother. I don’t know why he’s suddenly doing this.
“All I did was call his manager this afternoon and inform him about the piece I picked to perform at the opening ceremony.”
She lowered her eyelashes and restrained the coldness in her eyes. She did not explain the uniqueness of this song to Jiang Zongnan and only said, “I liked that song very much, so I chose it. Who knew that Second Brother would be angry?”
She obviously blamed Jiang Li.
She was obviously implying that Jiang Li was making a fuss and bullying her.
Sure enough, Tang Wanru spoke up before Jiang Zongnan could speak. She looked at her angry son in dissatisfaction and defended her daughter. “Didn’t your sister just choose a performance song? What’s wrong with you?!
“Is she really just choosing a song she likes? I think she’s…” She clearly wanted to show off and make the outside world think that she was Zhui Guang.
After all, Jiang Xianrou was his biological sister. Jiang Li couldn’t say anything too unpleasant.
He only said half of it, which made Tang Wanru feel that he was being unreasonable at home. “Alright, I’ll stand on her side as long as your sister likes it.”
“You’re on her side before you know what’s going on. She’s become like this because you’ve spoiled her!” Jiang Li was obviously angry.
Jiang Zongnan suddenly placed the bowl on the table and looked at him as soon as he finished speaking. He said sternly, “Jiang Li, how can you talk to your mother like that!”
“Okay.” Jiang Li was already used to them siding with Jiang Xianrou for no reason, but he couldn’t hide his disappointment. He only looked past the two of them and looked at Jiang Xianrou with his dark eyes. “I know what you’re thinking. You’d better put away your wishful thinking, or you’ll be the only one embarrassed!”
Jiang Xianrou’s face turned pale. Jiang Li’s words were too unpleasant to her ears. It was like a slap to her face, hurting and humiliating.
“This is my advice to you. If you listen, then good. If you don’t, then forget it!”
Jiang Li didn’t want to talk to her anymore. After saying this, he didn’t even take a seat to eat and brushed past the maid who brought him the bowls and chopsticks.
He left without looking back at Jiang Zongnan and Tang Wanru who were calling out to him!
His car was still parked on the road outside the villa. He opened the door with a cold expression and got in.
The manager asked him, “Brother Li, how did it go?”
Jiang Li said nothing.
He took out his phone and sent Qiao Nian a message on WeChat after getting into the car.
He waited about 10 minutes before she replied.
His face darkened as if he was very tired when he saw Qiao Nian’s reply.
