In particular, Old Master Jiangâs words were not only directed at Tang Wanru but also Jiang Zongnan.
Jiang Zongnan was a little uneasy. âDad, I never meant that!â
âSince you donât have such intentions, is it so difficult for your family to apologize?â Old Master Jiang couldnât even be bothered to look at him. His words were as sharp as ever.
Jiang Zongnan took a deep breath. His temples throbbed non-stop as he looked at his brother and then at his niece.
In silence, he turned her head and said to Tang Wanru, who was rooted to the ground, âApologize.â
!!
âYou want me to apologize too?â Tang Wanru did not dare to talk back to the old man, but she dared to talk back to him. Clearly, she could not accept this humiliation.
Jiang Zongnan looked at her reddened eyes and pursed his lips. After all, she was his wife, the woman he had loved for half his life. As a man, he had nothing to say. He only said, âApologize to Big Brother and this matter will be over today. Letâs get a divorce if youâre unwilling.â
This was said with extreme emphasis.
Tang Wanru and Jiang Xianrou were stunned.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Xianrou shouted at him in shock, âDad, how can you talk to Mom like that? What divorceâ¦â
âShut up!â Jiang Zongnan scolded her fiercely. âYou still have the cheek to speak? If it werenât for what you did, would our family have ended up like this? You should apologize too!â
Jiang Xianrouâs face turned pale from his scolding. Her long eyelashes drooped down as she bit her lip and remained silent.
It had come to this.
Tang Wanru was not a fool. She knew that her marriage would end if she did not apologize today.
She suppressed her overwhelming embarrassment and walked straight over to Jiang Zongjin. She was flustered and did not want to see how the others were looking at her.
âBig Brother, Iâm sorry. I was too rude just now. I hope you can understand how I feel as a mother.â
This apology was quite dry.
At the very least, Qiao Nian was not satisfied.
She frowned and was about to speak.
Jiang Zongjin blocked her and said to the woman who was unwilling to lower her head, âI understand. But I hope you remember that Nian Nian doesnât have a mother, but she still has a father. Iâm also a father. If anyone has a conflict with her, Iâll always stand on her side. Iâll still have this attitude even if I fall out with the entire family!
âIn the future⦠if you like her, weâll get together often. If you donât like her, thereâs no reason for my daughter to be despised by the elders because of our blood relationship. Everyone can just pretend that weâre not related.â
Tang Wanru quickly looked up. She couldnât believe that he would say such things so bluntly. She was embarrassed for a moment.
âBig Brother, thatâs not the case.â Jiang Zongnan quickly interrupted him. He looked at Qiao Nian with a gentle gaze, his face full of guilt. âThis matter⦠is my fault as an uncle. Iâll talk to them properly later. This wonât happen again. Nian Nian, donât take todayâs matter to heart. Take that card back.â
Qiao Nian looked at the bank card. Her eyes narrowed, but she did not reach out to take it. The face under the black baseball cap was attractive. She raised the brim of her cap, her face expressionless. She was still the same, quite cold. âThereâs no need. I donât like owing people anything, especially favors.â
Money was easy to return, but favors were not!
She looked up. âIâve told you the password to the bank card. Second Uncle, you should remember that thereâs some money in the card. Itâs not much, but it should be enough to withdraw two million yuan. After youâre done, hand the card to the bank manager and theyâll send it back to me.â
