Jiang Li was already turning to leave when he saw that his father was still standing there, motionless. He couldn’t help but call out, “Dad?”
Jiang Zongnan did not respond. He didn’t look at anyone. He looked stubbornly at the old man in the wheelchair and said in a low voice, “Dad, are you removing Xianrou from the family tree because of Nian Nian?”
Old Master Jiang raised his head. He had aged a lot during this period of time. His hair had turned completely white, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were very deep. However, he was calm and peaceful. He only glanced at Jiang Zongnan, who was standing on the spot and refusing to leave. Old Master Jiang said without hiding anything, “Yes.”
“Xianrou didn’t participate in this matter!” Jiang Zongnan’s voice was deep. He clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white.
Old Master Jiang did not react. His expression was still calm. He glanced at Jiang Xianrou, whose face was as pale as paper, then looked away and said tiredly, “I know she’s not involved, but can you say that she doesn’t know anything?”
“…” Jiang Zongnan’s throat was stuck and he couldn’t answer immediately.
Old Master Jiang’s expression was calm as he continued, “You know very well that there are some things that she doesn’t need to participate in. She just needs to give a hint, and someone will do it for her. Can you say that she didn’t participate personally?”
Of course not.
Jiang Zongnan tightened his grip, and his face turned ashen.
He knew that Jiang Xianrou couldn’t say that she was completely innocent in this matter, but the punishment the old master gave her was too heavy!
