After being yelled at by Jiang Hanlin and Zhong Kuijun, Xie Congrong lost all her courage to speak up all of a sudden.
Gu Mingzhe refused to stay any longer with these poor ass relatives with holes in their brains, so he left with Zhong Qianqian.
After Zhong Kuijun sent Zhong Qianqian and Gu Mingzhe off, he turned around and approached Xie Congrong. Without saying a word, he slapped her face. The sound rang across the air.
Xie Congrong lost her balance and fell off the chair.
“Zhong Kuijun, what are you doing? Why did you hit me? Is this your revolt?” Grandma Jiang was scared out of her wits and scolded him harshly.
Jiang Hanlin and Jiang Shuwan also pulled Xie Congrong up from the ground hastily.
“If we weren’t in the same boat, I would have divorced Jiang Shuwan and broken up with the Jiang family a long time ago! Jiang Hanlin is right. Everyone in this family is an idiot!”
Thinking about how Xie Congrong nearly revealed that Zhong Qianqian was the child of the Jiang family, the Jiang family members did not look too good either.
However, Grandma Jiang did not like to be rebuked, so she pursed her lips and said, “What’s the big deal? Congrong knew about what happened back then, and she never told anyone about it all these years. Now that Mingzhe is already married to Qianqian, they’re already family even though they haven’t had their wedding yet. Since they’re already a family, what is there that can’t be said?”
Jiang Shuwan stood on Grandma Jiang’s side and added, “That’s right, Kuijun. Did you see how well Mingzhe treats our Qianqian? He would rather let the Gu family suffer some losses than breaking up with our Qianqian, which shows how important Qianqian is to Mingzhe. I believe that Mingzhe won’t show any reaction even if he finds out that Qianqian is our daughter. On the contrary, he should be proud that Qianqian is our daughter. After all, our Jiang family is a super-rich family in Jiang District.”
When Jiang Shuwan said that, everyone looked pleased with themselves, including Grandma Jiang and Xie Congrong. Zhong Kuijun nearly lost control of himself and yearned to slap the three women another round so badly.
Zhong Kuijun hissed out an angry laugh and said sarcastically, “Why were you so smart when you came up with threatening me with those photos? Also, when you used the same matter to threaten and persuade me to kill Pu Yu, seizing her assets, how were you so smart?”
Grandma Jiang said unhappily, “What do you mean by that? Did we say something wrong just now? Mingzhe does love Qianqian a lot. Now, he already dotes on Qianqian so much while not knowing that Qianqian is the daughter of the Jiang family. It can’t be that our Jiang family isn’t at par with Zhong Nuannuan, someone with no status at all, can it?”
“Gu Mingzhe loves Qianqian? Have you all been lazing around too much in your free time and watched too many moronic dramas? He and Qianqian have known each other since they were young, but did he care about Qianqian back then? When the Zhong family or the Jiang family invited the Gu family to banquets, did the Gu family ever look at us seriously?
“Before they became a third-rate wealthy family in Emperor District, they already looked down on us as though we’re dogs. Why do you think that, after they became a third-rate wealthy family, they came close to us without an invitation?”
The Jiang family, “…”
“Why?” Jiang Shuwan asked confusedly.
“Hmph!” Zhong Kuijun sneered at Jiang Shuwan, reluctant to reply to her.
“Gu Mingzhe is Qianqian’s first love. Yet, when Qianqian went to Gu Mingzhe to make her presence known, did Gu Mingzhe care about her?”
