Suddenly, a surveillance video started playing on the big screen.
It's high-definition, has color, and you can even hear the sound.
In the video, a bright red Ferrari stands out on the side of a road.
Through the car window, it was clear that Mrs. Jiang, who was present at the scene, was sitting in the driver's seat, while her daughter, Jiang Ranran, was sitting in the passenger seat.
As a result, Mrs. Jiang started the car while looking at her phone, and didn't even check if there was anyone behind the car in the rearview mirror before reversing.
It bumped right into an elderly person who was passing by on the side of the road.
Upon closer inspection, everyone realized that the elderly man in the simple Tang suit was none other than Grandpa Song.
However, upon realizing that the car had been suddenly stopped and had clearly hit someone, Mrs. Jiang immediately exchanged a glance with her daughter.
Only then did he reluctantly get off the car.
After getting off the bus, she saw Grandpa Song lying on the roadside, clutching his knee and looking pained. Her first reaction was not to go forward to help him up and apologize.
Instead, he actually raised his chin and said sarcastically, "Sir, are you trying to scam me?"
As passersby gathered around, Mrs. Jiang became even more self-righteous.
"These days, there are all sorts of people. Maybe he's so desperate for money that he came up with this kind of scheme to extort money?"
"I advise you to get up quickly, otherwise I'll call the police in a bit. You're so old, and trying to extort a little money is nothing but a disgrace to your children!"
Her daughter chimed in, saying that their car hadn't hit anyone at all.
That's absolutely ridiculous!
They could all see in the surveillance footage that the car shook when it hit Grandpa Song.
This mother and daughter actually claimed that the car didn't hit anyone at all, directly accusing Mr. Song of staging an accident to extort money.
They finally understood why Old Master Song had said as soon as he came out today that he had met with Chen Fulan and her daughter yesterday.
Now I finally understand why Song Sichen said earlier that it was Madam Jiang who had caused Old Master Song's misfortune.
It turns out that it was Madam Jiang who injured Old Master Song's leg.
Not only that, she also slandered the old man and even incited unsuspecting passersby to gather around and condemn him.
That's absolutely disgusting!
"My God, this Mrs. Jiang dresses so respectably, yet she's so vicious behind the scenes. She just hit someone and doesn't want to take responsibility, so she resorts to slander."
"If this weren't Grandpa Song, but an ordinary, poor old man, wouldn't he have to bear the consequences of being hit by her and also be scolded by passersby?"
"Like mother, like daughter. Aren't these two bullies?"
"With a wife and daughter like that, what kind of good person could Jiang Sheng of Shenglan Real Estate be? It seems we should stay away from the Jiang family in the future. Who would dare to cooperate with a company run by someone like that?"
Hearing the whispers and murmurs of the crowd, Chen Fulan's face first turned red, then pale.
It was practically a public execution.
It's over.
Because she didn't want to take responsibility, now Ranran's reputation and the Jiang family's reputation are completely ruined!
Doing business relies on the resources and connections of high-society clients, and now their company is going to go under too!
Madam Song's mouth dropped open at that moment.
This mother and daughter are such idiots! They actually did something like this before?!
Someone asked, "But what does this have to do with Jiang Nian? Why is she said to be the old man's savior?"
Then everyone saw it on the surveillance footage.
Just as Chen Fulan and Jiang Ranran were strutting around arrogantly, and all the passersby were pointing and staring at the old man groaning in pain, a simply dressed girl squeezed into the crowd and came to the old man's side without any hesitation.
They didn't care at all about any so-called staged accident.
They are not afraid that the elderly will become their entanglement.
A cool, clear voice: "Grandpa, your knees must hurt a lot, right?"
"Please don't move, let me check your injury."
Even though Jiang Ranran was making sarcastic remarks, the girl remained focused on helping the old man, and with a swift movement, she put the old man's kneecap back in place.
Then he squatted down and let the old man climb onto his back, carrying him to the hospital without any hesitation.
Everyone was moved by this scene.
Even through the screen, they could feel the girl's earnestness and kindness.
"This..." Madam Song persisted, "This Jiang Nian, she must know the old man! That's why..."
"If Jiang Nian knows the old man and did these things to make our Song family owe her a favor, or if she has some other purpose, why did she leave after paying the medical bills at the hospital?"
Song Sichen interrupted his sister-in-law coldly, "If the old man hadn't insisted that she add me on WeChat, I wouldn't have been able to return the money to her, let alone invite her to the old man's birthday banquet tonight."
"I guess she only found out this was the Song family home after she arrived, which is why she dressed so simply."
No wonder!
Everyone suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder Jiang Nian showed up at such a grand occasion dressed in a T-shirt and jeans.
She must have thought that the person she saved yesterday was an ordinary old man from a poor family who had just come to celebrate his birthday.
Why would an ordinary elderly person need to wear an expensive and glamorous evening gown to a birthday banquet?
But just now, Chen Fulan, Jiang Ranran, and Madam Song kept mocking her for her shabby clothes...
At this moment, Chen Fulan was adorned with jade jewelry and luxury handbags, while Jiang Ranran wore an extravagant strapless evening gown and a dazzling diamond necklace. This mother and daughter, having done such a thing, are so ostentatious; it's truly despicable!
This is the legendary case of something that looks beautiful on the outside but is rotten inside!
Now, everyone has finally figured out the whole story.
The disdain in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Nian was gone. But Jiang Nian remained calm and composed, her expression unchanged.
Most people in this world do not have their own opinions and judgments.
Therefore, these same people will fawn over you when you are in power and kick you when you are down. When you face overwhelming public criticism, they will blindly condemn you without the patience to investigate the truth. And when you are exonerated, they will change their tune, as if they have always been champions of justice.
If someone is like that, such recognition is meaningless and not worth caring about.
Jiang Nian's expression remained aloof as she looked at Old Master Song.
"Grandpa Song, I just came to bring you some medicine. You can take one of these pills every day."
"I've delivered the goods, so I'll be leaving now. I wish you boundless happiness and longevity."
Jiang Nian took the medicine pot from Song Sichen and handed it to Old Master Song.
Having finally seen Jiang Nian arrive, Old Master Song was naturally reluctant to let her leave. However, before the old man could stop her, someone in the crowd suddenly pointed at the medicine jar and exclaimed in surprise.
"Am I seeing things? This medicine container... how come it looks exactly like the medicine container that Fox used to store medicine?"
"Could it be that the medicine this young lady brought to Old Master Song was made by that fox?"
