Du Bin: "Master, how about I go back to the mansion?"
Jiang Chi's expression was somewhat solemn. "No need, let them see each other. Jiang Yan shouldn't do anything reckless in front of her own son."
"Okay, I'll pass the message on to the people at home."
...
With permission, Jiang Tuo met Jiang Yan.
She's gone on hunger strikes, attempted suicide, and is unpredictable... Jiang Yan has lost a lot of weight recently.
Upon seeing her son, she immediately threw down the chopsticks in her hand.
"You still remember I'm your mother?"
Jiang Tuo didn't dodge; the chopsticks hit him and fell to the ground.
His suit was dirty and stained with oil.
Jiang Tuo sat down next to his mother and stared at her intently. "You're still just as irritable as ever, and you feel like everyone owes you something."
Jiang Yan glared coldly at Jiang Tuo, "I'm not going to listen to your nonsense. If you have any filial piety, take me away from this godforsaken place right now."
"Mom, after all these years, don't you still understand? Grandpa was the best person to you, and he loved you the most. He was willing to be misunderstood, willing to play the bad guy, but he was still silently protecting you. And you, all you do is get angry at him all the time. Don't you ever doubt Dad's character?"
Jiang Yan's fury was evident on her face, and her cold, hard voice was forced out through clenched teeth, "I don't need you to lecture me! You've only been living with that old man for a short time, and you've already lost your mind!"
Jiang Tuo wasn't angry; his voice was calm, "You're just like Wei Yuan, deceiving yourself! You've brought back a devil!"
Jiang Yan chuckled.
"Did she mess up the Jiang family? Is Jiang Zhi going to divorce that bitch Qiao Chu? Your grandfather must be furious, right? Hahaha...hahaha..."
The young lady's laughter was sinister and quite terrifying.
Just then, the servant interjected, "Young Master, have you eaten yet? There's still food left, please have some."
Jiang Tuo: "Thank you! I'm not hungry, you can leave now."
After hesitating for a moment, the maid left the dining room.
...
Jiang Tuo continued to stare at his mother.
"You're mistaken. The Jiang family isn't in chaos; everyone is doing well. My brother and sister-in-law have a baby, and Grandpa is very happy. They'll be getting married at the end of the month, and they're very happy. Wei Yuan is in a bad situation; multiple endorsements have been canceled, and she's been replaced in her new movie role. She's currently in a state of being sidelined."
"No way, you're lying to me."
“I’m telling the truth. Your wishful thinking has been shattered! It was my grandfather and sister-in-law who made me feel what family is, and they made me feel the warmth of home. You’ve never given me any of that.”
Jiang Yan was furious. She picked up the dishes in front of her and threw them directly at her son.
"Are you clear-headed enough?"
His face and clothes were dirty, but Jiang Tuo still sat next to Jiang Yan, staring at her intently.
He didn't even pick up a napkin to wipe it.
Jiang Tuo laughed, a laugh of despair. "You've always been like this, never considering my feelings. You're probably blaming me for being useless, aren't you? I don't have the ability to keep that man's heart for you. I'm just a pawn in your game. Seeing my face, which is just like his, makes you angry and annoyed. You blame him for being too heartless and abandoning you."
"Get out!"
“Mom, he painted a picture before he met you, called Eternal Love. There’s a pure-looking woman in the painting, but you can’t see her face. Everyone is guessing that this woman is definitely not you, and that he loves the person in the painting. It was auctioned off for 2.5 million a while ago. Wei Yuan had this painting put up for auction, and she knows who the person in the painting is.”
Jiang Yan slapped her son across the face and glared at him fiercely.
"I gave birth to you, not so you could drive me crazy."
Jiang Tuo didn't shut up and continued, "He had Wei Yuan with the woman in the painting, and you've been raising his illegitimate daughter for him..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jiang Yan slapped her son again, yelling, "Get out!"
“I will leave after I finish speaking. You should have known these things more than 20 years ago. Your grandfather should not have protected you.”
"You're talking nonsense! Do you feel good lying to me like this?"
“I’m telling you the truth. Even if I didn’t say it, if Wei Yuan could contact you, she would tell you. She’s back to seek revenge on the Jiang family and avenge her father. She’ll stop at nothing to do it. You’re just a pawn in her game.”
Jiang Yan picked up her rice bowl and smashed it at her son.
Instantly, Jiang Tuo's forehead began to bleed.
The bowl fell to the ground and broke.
The maid rushed over to check on things; she wanted to call the master.
Jiang Tuo: "Don't hit him. Everything that needs to be dealt with will be finished tonight. Don't disturb Grandpa."
"Young Master..."
"You can sit on the other side."
"I'll get the first-aid kit; you should stop the bleeding first. Miss, it hurts you more than your son, why do this? Young Master is so filial; this is going too far!"
Jiang Yan shouted loudly, "You have no right to speak here, get out!"
The maid left.
For safety's sake, we'll notify Butler Du via satellite phone.
...
The wound on my forehead hurts, but the pain in my heart is unbearable.
Jiang Tuo had really had enough; he didn't want to put up with it anymore.
"Whether you want to face it or not, Wei Yuan is that man's child with another woman. You are their mistress. That man doesn't love you at all. All he wants is your money to save that seriously ill woman."
"..."
Jiang Yan remained silent.
She poured all the food onto her son.
Jiang Tuo did not dodge; his heart was ashen.
“I’m guessing. Grandpa knew the truth, and he couldn’t tolerate that man deceiving you. He wanted that man to leave you… When he was exposed, that man felt guilty. After that woman died, he died with her. Even in death, he set up a scheme to make you hate Grandpa and keep you two fighting to the death.”
"..."
"You were so self-righteous, becoming that man's pawn, stirring up trouble in the Jiang family, and hating everyone. You raised Wei Yuan with the same purpose of stirring up trouble in the Jiang family and inciting hatred. You just didn't expect that after my brother's car accident, Wei Yuan would run away. You also didn't expect that three years later, my sister-in-law and brother would be together and living very well. Everything didn't go as you wished."
"..."
"Mom, you've done so many bad things over the years!"
"..."
"You don't deserve to have your grandfather silently protecting you."
The food on the table had already been spilled, and there was nothing left to smash. Jiang Yan glared fiercely at Jiang Tuo and yelled, "Are you ever going to stop?"
Jiang Tuo's lips curled up slightly, a half-smile playing on his lips. "I've said my piece. You know everything you need to know. This is the last time I'll see you. Take care. After clinging to this for over twenty years, you're still a loser, and you've lost even more miserably, wearing down the love and care your family has for you. Now, you're reaping what you sowed."
"..."
"You know, you brought me despair! It weighed heavily on my heart, making me feel terrible. Now that I've said it, I feel much better. I'm not stupid; I know everything. You and Wei Yuan are truly shameless, and that dead man was despicable! In fact, I hate you both!"
