Jiang Nuan's intention was to ruin Lin Qingtong's face; a cold glint flashed in her eyes.
We must teach Lin Qingtong a lesson today.
Before she could even get close to Lin Qingtong, the bodyguard in black blocked her way, his tone icy cold.
"Madam, please have some self-respect. If we find you resorting to violence again, don't blame us for calling the police."
Jiang Nuan tried to resist, but the bodyguard held her hands firmly behind her back, and for some reason, she couldn't move an inch.
However, one could clearly see the mocking expression on Lin Qingtong's face.
“Ms. Jiang Nuan, I’m afraid you haven’t been to the Jiang family since you came back, have you? If you have time, you can take a look.”
"You'll realize how absurd and ridiculous those words were when the time comes."
Jiang Nuan was full of doubts about Lin Qingtong's words, but she couldn't save face, so she forced herself to shout.
"Lin Qingtong, I am your elder. How dare you treat me like this? Aren't you afraid that our Jiang family will divorce you, you childless slut!"
"How dare you mess around outside and find other men? You only got into Wutong Manor because you sleep with men."
"What are you so arrogant about? Sooner or later, you'll be dumped by men like a rag."
Lin Qingtong stared at Jiang Nuan, who was now in a vulnerable state, and suddenly leaned down and giggled.
"I forgot to tell you, I'm not a tourist, I'm a local—"
"Owner!"
She straightened up, glanced down at Jiang Nuan, and slowly uttered a sentence.
"Wutong Manor was built for me. I can go wherever I want, and it's none of your business."
"I will arrange for someone to permanently ban you from entering Wutong Manor."
Lin Qingtong's gaze lingered on the middle-aged women who had come with Jiang Nuan, a smile playing on her lips.
"Furthermore, I, Lin Qingtong, will always welcome Auntie's arrival and will treat her with the highest courtesy of Wutong Manor, but I have only one condition."
The aunties' eyes lit up immediately. Wutong Manor was not only an art gallery, but also the largest private banquet hall.
If they could receive the highest honors from Wutong Manor, it would mean that all seven of them would receive gifts from the manor during festivals and holidays.
Moreover, anyone who entertains guests here will receive a 50% discount, and will be greeted by a line of servants and bodyguards.
So they readily agreed.
"Sure, I'll agree to any conditions."
"We are too."
Lin Qingtong smiled faintly and slowly said, "My request is not high. I only ask that you tell Ms. Jiang Nuan whenever you come to Wutong Manor in the future."
"But, is it possible to absolutely prevent her from entering?"
Upon hearing this, the others immediately replied, "What's the big deal? Of course we can do it."
Jiang Nuan overheard their conversation and was immediately furious, but for the sake of her pride, she snorted coldly.
"What's so great about this? It's just a manor, I look down on it."
"I'll go back and tell Hao'er that the whole manor will be mine then."
Upon hearing this, Lin Qingtong found it amusing. This person was far too naive; how could Jiang Hao possibly own such a large estate?
Seeing that Lin Qingtong was silent, Jiang Nuan thought that Lin Qingtong was scared. After all, Lin Qingtong would listen to her whenever she mentioned Jiang Hao.
"Lin Qingtong, if you're scared, you'd better apologize to me respectfully, and you'd better invite me to visit the backyard and give me a few paintings."
She shamelessly pointed to the most expensive paintings in the art gallery and began to speak.
"I think these paintings are pretty good! If you don't give them to me, I'll tell Hao'er!"
Lin Qingtong was so amused by her words that she smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescents, making her look exceptionally charming.
"You're really shameless. Why don't you go back and ask Jiang Hao if he has the nerve to come looking for me?"
Jiang Nuan didn't seem to understand what Lin Qingtong meant, thinking that Lin Qingtong had agreed as long as Jiang Hao agreed.
"But you said that as long as I go to Hao'er and he agrees, you will give me all these things."
"No, you might as well just transfer the whole estate to me and go home to be a good wife and mother."
Upon hearing the phrase "a good wife and mother," Lin Qingtong couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Logically speaking, everyone in the Jiang family knows that she cannot have children. Although this is false, it is something that everyone in the Jiang family knows.
What exactly does Jiang Nuan mean by saying this?
Does she know something?
A cold glint flashed in Lin Qingtong's eyes as she tentatively spoke.
"Just like you said, I can't even have children, so how can I stay home and be a wife and mother? You must be wrong."
She kept her eyes fixed on Jiang Nuan, observing the subtle changes in the other person's facial expressions.
Lin Qingtong originally thought that Jiang Nuan would put on an act to cover things up, but she didn't expect Jiang Nuan to speak up so smugly.
“You can’t have children, but that doesn’t mean our Hao’er can’t. He can go outside and find a woman to have children with, and then we can give them to you to raise.”
"Since you can't have children anyway, even if you get divorced, no one will be willing to marry you again?"
Inside the exquisite and luxurious Wutong Manor, Lin Qingtong stood there, a cold smile playing on her lips.
So that's how it is. Even Jiang Nuan, who married far away, knew, while I was kept completely in the dark.
Lin Qingtong no longer feels emotionally affected by Jiang Hao; she just feels sorry for her past self and thinks she was too foolish.
Too lazy to argue with Jiang Nuan any longer, she placed her slender hand on the railing and casually uttered a sentence.
"You don't need to worry about that, because I've already divorced Jiang Hao. You can ask him about what happened."
"Throw the man out of the manor, don't dirty this place."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bodyguard in black grabbed Jiang Nuan and lifted her up. She had no chance to resist and could only shout and yell like a shrew.
"You're all thugs! How dare you treat me like this? Do you believe I'll call the police?!"
If it were at the beginning, perhaps some people would still help Jiang Nuan, but now most people have learned the truth.
The middle-aged women who were with Jiang Nuan, in particular, all spoke up to explain on Lin Qingtong's behalf.
"Please don't misunderstand, everyone. She's just spouting nonsense because she couldn't extort money from me."
“Wutong Manor is a place with surveillance cameras everywhere. The police will be able to find out who is right and who is wrong by checking.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang Nuan's expression changed immediately, and she shouted accusations at those people.
"What's going on with you guys? We're friends, we came together!"
Unexpectedly, the curly-haired aunt leading the group joked, "We don't have a friend like you, it's so embarrassing."
Lin Qingtong smiled coldly. She had only stirred things up a little, and these people had already fallen apart. It was truly laughable.
Jiang Nuan was furious and threw the mineral water bottle in her hand at Lin Qingtong.
"It's all because of you that things have turned out this way. You're a little slut, a jinx that's caused death, and you're the reason your mother can never have children again."
