Nobody knew what was going on.
Didn't they say that Grandpa Song only returned to Jiangcheng yesterday, and then injured his leg in an accident as soon as he got back, so he's refusing to see guests?
I heard that many people wanted to visit yesterday but were politely turned down.
The old man said that he had already met with Chen Fulan and Jiang Ranran, the mother and daughter from the Jiang family, yesterday.
Why did the old man's face become so sarcastic upon seeing his future granddaughter-in-law?
Everyone's eyes turned to Chen Fulan and the others.
The moment the mother and daughter saw Grandpa Song sitting in his wheelchair, their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and their faces turned deathly pale.
It was as if they had seen a ghost.
Chen Fulan almost cried out on the spot.
"Mr. Song...?"
"You...no, you're Old Master Song?!"
Isn't this the old man she hit with her car yesterday?!
Yesterday, seeing that the old man was dressed poorly, she was afraid that he would try to take advantage of her and make exorbitant demands. When she saw that there were no cameras, she directly accused him of faking an accident to extort money.
How could this poor old man be the esteemed and respected patriarch of the Song family?! The very grandfather of Song Wenjing, whom Ranran is to marry?!
It's over.
This is really the end.
No matter how fancy the clothes were or how carefully the gifts were prepared to visit Old Master Song, it was all useless!
A bolt of lightning struck Chen Fulan and Jiang Ranran simultaneously, causing them to feel dizzy and their legs to go weak.
I can't even stand up straight.
"Mom..." Jiang Ranran looked at Chen Fulan beside her in despair, her lips trembling.
She suddenly recalled how, outside the villa, she had raised her chin and said so many things to Jiang Nian with a smug look, and how Jiang Nian had looked at her with such a mocking gaze.
It turns out that Jiang Nian already knew that the old man from yesterday was Grandpa Song!
That bitch didn't even tell her, just waiting to see her and her mother make a fool of themselves!
"What do you mean by this, Dad?"
Madam Song had no idea what had happened yesterday. Confused, she thought the old man had gone senile again.
"Yesterday, Ranran and her mother wanted to visit you, but you turned them down. How could you have met with them?"
Whether she has seen him or not, Madam Jiang knows very well what she has seen.
Old Master Song gave a cold laugh.
Turning to look at Jiang Nian, he immediately put on a kind and gentle expression, beckoning to her: "Nian Nian, my little girl, I'm so happy that you could come to wish Grandpa a happy birthday. Come here to Grandpa!"
hiss--
Everyone in the banquet hall gasped.
What's going on here?
Didn't Madam Song say that Jiang Nian is just a country girl?
Having no power or influence, and not even having a decent dress to wear to a banquet, Madam Song even smashed the gift that someone had brought for the old man in public.
But now.
Old Master Song is known for his unpredictable moods and eccentric temper. When has he ever greeted anyone with such a smiling face?
The affection and tenderness in Jiang Nian's eyes when she looked at him were not feigned.
However, when Madam Song saw that her husband was treating Jiang Nian so differently, she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
He asked incredulously, "Dad, why are you so close to that girl? Could it be that you had Si Chen invite her to the banquet?"
"So what if it is?" the old man said calmly.
Mrs. Song immediately said, "Dad! This girl is no good! She's a troubled girl who doesn't study, gets into fights, and dropped out of school."
"Do you remember when Wen Jing got into a fight and ended up in the hospital? This girl beat him up and even refused to apologize at the police station. She doesn't respect the Song family at all and is extremely arrogant."
"Later, I don't know what methods that girl used, but she wasn't detained and was just let go!"
“Sister-in-law,” Song Sichen stepped forward, his posture upright and his demeanor cold, “I have already investigated this matter. It was Wen Jing who first led people to the school gate to ambush Jiang Nian, which is why Jiang Nian attacked them all.”
Madam Song knew, of course, that it was her son who had gone to find out about it first.
But she never expected that Old Master Song was Wen Jing's biological grandfather, and Song Sichen was Wen Jing's biological uncle.
They didn't side with their own son, but instead sided with Jiang Nian, an outsider.
"Even if I am like this, how could Jiang Nian be so ruthless?"
With so many people watching, Song Sichen spoke the truth, and Madam Song couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Then, after a moment's thought, she understood. "I know! Grandpa, did this girl somehow find out about this after you just returned to Jiangcheng yesterday and come to you? She's putting on a well-behaved and sensible act in front of you to win your favor?"
Madam Song glared at Jiang Nian with resentment. "This girl, she's so cunning at such a young age. Knowing I don't like her, she bypassed me and came directly to you."
"But please don't be fooled by her. She's just pretending. Ranran is the truly innocent and kind one, and she deserves to marry Wen Jing and join our Song family!"
Ever since Old Master Song showed up, including when Madam Song said those words just now.
Jiang Nian stood there the whole time, without saying a word.
His eyes and brows were filled with indifference, as if he were looking at some clown.
Chen Fulan and Jiang Ranran were already feeling incredibly guilty. When Grandpa Song looked over, they wished they could disappear into the ground.
The more flamboyant and eye-catching they are dressed today, the more uncomfortable they feel under the gaze of others!
In particular, when Madam Song said that Jiang Ranran was innocent and kind, Chen Fulan felt as if she had been slapped in the face.
"Well, Mrs. Song, I think I'll take Ranran back first today..."
Chen Fulan spoke with trembling hands, struggling to utter even a single word.
"Leave?" Song Sichen sneered.
"Since you're already here, Mrs. Jiang, won't you take a look at the gift I prepared for you?"
"You've ruined my father's life, do you really think you can get away with it without paying any price?"
Chen Fulan's hand trembled: "Dean Song, what did you say?"
Everyone else looked completely bewildered.
Did Madam Jiang cause the old man to become like this? Could it be that Madam Jiang is the one who caused the old man to be sitting in a wheelchair now?
Song Sichen looked at Jiang Nian and said gently, "Miss Jiang Nian, yesterday I said I would find evidence and find the person who bumped into the old man. I have found it."
"Although there were no surveillance cameras on that road, one of the shops on that road happened to have a camera facing the roadside, which captured the whole scene of yesterday's incident."
"What?" Jiang Ranran's face turned pale, and she cried out without caring about her image.
Before anyone could react, the large screen in the center of the banquet hall suddenly lit up.
Chen Fulan's legs went completely weak, and she collapsed into the nearest chair, trembling all over.
