[Why is my sister crying...? Oh, is this the top student? No wonder my sister said his face was covered in pimples and he looked like a toad, he really isn't good-looking.]
"......"
Guo Tianyu's face stiffened. He wished he could disappear into the floor, so he slunk back to his seat.
Jiang Xinrou stared at him in astonishment, not knowing what had happened or why he was suddenly ignoring her.
She glared at Jiang Ran secretly, then got up and walked to her seat.
“Sister...I know you’ve suffered all these years...It’s all my fault, please forgive me? If you don’t forgive me, I will never have peace of mind for the rest of my life.”
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow.
Is this considered moral blackmail?
One female classmate couldn't stand it and couldn't help but sneer, "White lotus."
Jiang Xinrou cried even louder.
Just then, the school bell rang.
The teacher walked in and saw Jiang Xinrou crying with her head on the table, so she came over to ask her what was wrong.
Jiang Xinrou didn't say anything, she just kept crying, so the teacher asked the other students.
"Nothing happened."
"We were just reading, nothing happened."
"I don't know, she might be practicing crying scenes."
Having received no answer, the teacher had no choice but to begin the lesson.
After school, Jiang Xinrou was the first to rush out of the classroom. Instead of going home, she went to the Jiang family's residence.
Upon seeing Jiang Minghui, she rushed into his arms, sobbing.
"Waaaaah, Daddy...you have to stand up for me..."
"What's wrong, my darling daughter? Who bullied you?"
Jiang Xinrou wiped away her tears, her face full of grievance, and sobbed, "It's Jiang Ran! She told the other students I was a fake heiress, and now they all laugh at me and bully me, waaaaah..."
Jiang Minghui's face darkened.
Jiang Ran may seem harmless on the surface, but she is incredibly cunning.
He never revealed Xinrou's identity to anyone, yet Jiang Ran is so vicious as to expose Xinrou's identity to the public. Isn't this deliberately letting others bully Xinrou?
Xinrou is his biological daughter. If he didn't still have some things to deal with, he would have already announced that Xinrou is his biological daughter.
But how can we make it public in a way that is legitimate?
People in the industry value their reputation highly, especially regarding children born out of wedlock from extramarital affairs. They are particularly disgusted by such children. If they want to be able to openly and legitimately recognize their mother and daughter...
Suddenly, Jiang Minghui's eyes lit up.
If one were to remarry after the death of one's wife, wouldn't that be perfectly legitimate?
"Dad, you have to avenge me! I've been so wronged today!"
"Don't worry, Dad will definitely get revenge for you!"
When Jiang Minghui led Jiang Xinrou, who was crying her eyes out, home, Shen Qingwan was peeling fruit for Jiang Ran, and the two were snuggled on the sofa chatting and laughing.
Jiang Minghui approached Jiang Ran with a stern face and asked in an unfriendly tone, "Ran, did you bully Xinrou at school today?"
Jiang Ran looked up, her face completely innocent.
Shen Qingwan was immediately displeased upon seeing this.
"How could Xiao Ran possibly bully others? She's so gentle; I won't allow you to slander her!"
"If she hadn't told the other students about Xinrou's true identity, why would they have laughed at Xinrou?!"
Shen Qingwan immediately retorted, "So what? Xinrou isn't my biological daughter. Even if Xiaoran said it, so what? It's just the truth!"
“You—!” A cold glint flashed in Jiang Minghui’s eyes.
"How have you become like this? So unreasonable! I know Xiaoran is your biological daughter, but you can't just blindly side with her and not distinguish right from wrong, can you? I'm so disappointed in you."
Shen Qingwan clenched her fists: "Are you going to argue with me because of Xinrou?"
“I watched Xinrou grow up, and I know her personality best. She would never have come to tell me if she hadn’t been bullied so badly today. On the other hand, Xiaoran was raised in that kind of place since she was a child. I don’t know what bad influences she has picked up.”
"You—" Shen Qingwan was so angry that her face turned pale.
Is he no longer even going to pretend?
Now that he holds great power and no longer needs the Shen family's help, does that give him the audacity to say such things to her?
Has he forgotten how he used to chase after her?
"Mom, don't be angry." Jiang Ran reached out and gently patted her back to help her calm down, then looked up at Jiang Minghui coldly.
“I didn’t tell my classmates her identity. If you don’t believe me, contact the school to check the surveillance footage.”
Jiang Minghui didn't believe Jiang Ran's words at all; he thought she was a habitual liar and extremely malicious.
"If it weren't for the other classmates you mentioned, how would they know Xinrou's identity?"
"You're asking me? Who should I ask?"
"How dare you talk to me like that?! You're truly a case of being born but not raised..."
After saying that, Jiang Minghui realized he had spoken too quickly.
Jiang Ran's face was grim, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Don't you know why no one takes care of me?
Jiang Minghui looked at Shen Qingwan apologetically: "Qingwan, I didn't mean it. I was just in a hurry and said something without thinking. Please don't take it to heart."
Shen Qingwan's face turned ashen, her anger surging within her.
This must be what he really thinks, right?
“I believe my daughter. She said she didn’t say it, so she didn’t say it. As for how others know, you should ask your Xinrou if she doesn’t get along well with her classmates at school!”
After saying that, Shen Qingwan pulled Jiang Ran upstairs.
She was furious. This was the man she loved, so protective of his mistress's daughter. If it weren't for the Shen family behind her, he would have already openly brought the mistress and her family into his home.
