Chapter 230: Disappointment
It is indeed difficult for Jiang Zhongzhen and Cheng Wan to ask an elder to apologize to the younger generation.
Since this family came in, Jiang Yan has been sitting on the sofa, his noble and heroic face is extremely indifferent, and he doesn't say a word.
The entire living room was silent for a few seconds, with only the breathing of a few people remaining.
"Ayan."
Jiang Zhongzhen looked at Jiang Yan, who had remained silent, and said, "It was indeed uncle who made the mistake before. I have never understood why your grandfather handed over the Jiang family to your father. This has become a knot in my heart. I am obviously the eldest in the family. No matter how much I inherit, it will not be your father's turn. There is still your second uncle between your father and me. I was indeed jealous of your father and resented your grandfather, but now uncle has come to his senses. The Jiang family is indeed very suitable for you. I also finally understand that your two cousins are not cut out for business. So, now uncle sincerely apologizes to you and hopes you can forgive uncle."
Jiang Yan's narrow eyes narrowed slightly without any expression. He said in a deep voice, "From what I hear, Uncle is planning to give up his position at Jiang's and just take the dividends?"
Although his position has been suspended, he can still return to the company, after all, he holds shares in Jiang's.
As soon as Jiang Yan finished speaking, Cheng Wan retorted, "No, why should you let your uncle give up..."
"Shut up!"
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Jiang Zhongzhen's deliberately suppressed angry voice.
Cheng Wan was naturally unwilling to accept this. She stood up in an instant, a little excited, and said, "Husband, are you stupid? He's clearly trying to take over the Jiang family for himself. If you give up your position in the Jiang family, what will happen to our son? It's bad enough that you were suppressed by the third brother when you were young, but now you want to see your son suppressed by your nephew as well. In the future, all your descendants, Jiang Zhongzhen, will be suppressed by this family, right? When did you become such a coward!"
Her words instantly changed the expression of the old lady sitting in the main seat.
Zhong Min has always treated her three daughters-in-law equally, but unfortunately, she really can't like a woman like Cheng Wan who is sarcastic and narrow-minded.
So, over the years, no matter whether she gossiped or instigated trouble in front of her, she turned a blind eye, just because they were all family.
But after so many years, she still has the same temper, she simply can't change!
The next second, everyone saw Jiang Zhongzhen suddenly stand up, raise his hand, and slap Cheng Wan without hesitation.
“Bang!”
Everyone heard a crisp slap.
And Cheng Wan's scream: "Ah..."
She lost her balance and fell onto the sofa.
The eldest daughter-in-law, Chu Yanan, who was sitting next to her, was also startled. She reached out to help her: "Mom, are you okay?"
Cheng Wan was completely stunned. She covered her cheeks, her eyes red and angry as she glared at Jiang Zhongzhen. She asked in disbelief, "You actually hit me?"
In the past, although they would quarrel, he never hit her, but this time...
"Jiang Zhongzhen, you old fool, how dare you hit me!"
After taking a moment to relax, she shook off Chu Yanan's hand and stood up again.
She roared at Jiang Zhongzhen, "I think you just want to show off in front of her. She rejected you back then and turned around to be with your brother. It's all because of your own incompetence, your cowardice, and your worthlessness! If you had snatched her away back then, you wouldn't have to secretly look at her photos behind my back every day!"
Jiang Zhongzhen didn't expect her to say such words all of a sudden. His expression instantly turned sinister. "Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I'm talking nonsense?" Cheng Wan's face was full of ferocity, and she began to speak without restraint. She pointed in the direction of Nan Jia and said, "Can you swear to heaven that you don't look at the photo of your second brother's wife every day? After all these years, you haven't forgotten her. Am I right? Jiang Zhongzhen, she is your second brother's wife, and I am your legally married wife, but you, the person you love and think about in your heart is always Nan Jia!"
When she said this, the younger generation present who were unaware of the situation were instantly dumbfounded.
Even Jiang Yan was a little surprised.
Jiang Zhongqian and Nan Jia's expressions changed instantly. They hadn't expected this to happen, and they were dragged into this matter out of the blue.
The old lady was so angry that her head hurt. She said sternly, "That's enough!"
"You all, get out of here now! From now on, no one of you is allowed to come to the old house without my permission!"
Cheng Wan turned around and left angrily without any hesitation.
“…”
A perfectly good family dinner was disrupted just like that.
At the dinner table, everyone had their own concerns. The old lady ate halfway and then went back to her room to rest.
After Su He finished eating, she went to the room to check on the old lady. She was afraid that she was feeling unwell, so she gave her a quick check.
When she came out, Nan Jia asked, "Su Su, is the old lady okay?"
Su He said, "Second Aunt, don't worry, grandma is fine, she just feels a little chest tightness, she will be fine after a few days of rest."
After hearing this, Nan Jia finally put her mind at ease.
She really didn't expect today to be like this.
Seeing that she looked unhappy, Su He comforted her, "Second Aunt, don't think too much. This matter has nothing to do with you."
"Susu, do you have time to go out and sit with Second Aunt?" Nan Jia asked.
Su He nodded: "Okay."
“…”
It was not until eleven o'clock that Su He returned to the room.
Jiang Yan was half leaning against the headboard, with a laptop on the quilt. It looked like he had just finished taking a shower and lay down there, because the hair on his forehead was still a little wet.
"Have you finished talking with Second Aunt?"
The man's deep, dark eyes looked at her with a hint of gentle starlight.
She nodded.
Then, I heard him say: "I've put your change of clothes in the bathroom for you. Go take a hot shower first. It's so cold today, so don't take a bath."
"Oh, okay."
After saying that, she walked directly towards the bathroom.
Jiang Yan stared deeply at the bathroom door for a few seconds before returning his gaze to the laptop in front of him.
He didn't put it away until Su He came out of the bathroom.
"come over."
He said two words in a deep voice.
As soon as Su He walked over, he moved to the side, lifted the corner of the quilt, and said three more words: "Lie down."
Su He looked at him, then looked at the place where he had just lain. After a few seconds of hesitation, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and then he lay down easily.
Sure enough, as soon as she lay down, the quilt was warm, wrapping her whole body like a furnace.
She felt warm in her heart. She turned her head to look at the man beside her and said deliberately, "Why are you being so attentive today?"
Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this: "Is this called showing courtesy?"
