Jiang's mother feared nothing but her husband.
After all, her wealth and status were all brought to her by her husband. He did not look down on her for being illiterate. After so many years with her, he used both kindness and strictness to keep Jiang's mother in line.
Jiang's father didn't comment on the chaos before him, but simply looked at Jiang Tian and said, "Come in."
Jiang Tian smiled and said, "Okay."
Then, holding Xie Yun'an's hand, she swaggered past Jiang's mother without giving her a single glance.
Jiang's mother, her face ashen, followed several people into the living room.
There were quite a few people in the living room, and instead of sitting idly, they were all gathered around comforting one person.
The person being comforted was none other than Jiang Hanyan.
Jiang Hanyan's tears flowed down her face like a broken string of pearls, without stopping for a moment.
This time, she wasn't acting; she was genuinely heartbroken.
The reason Jiang Tian was called back overnight was because Old Master Lu sent someone to the Jiang family.
He disliked his grandson's procrastination and feared that things might get complicated, so he had someone draft a contract and specially hired a very famous lawyer to come to the Jiang family to discuss the formal dissolution of the engagement.
To ensure the smooth dissolution of the engagement, he even offered to provide financial compensation to the Jiang family.
Who would give up a big deal for a small amount of money?
Jiang Hanyan was on the verge of collapse when she saw the professionally prepared and meticulously drafted contract.
She deeply regretted challenging Grandpa Lu back then.
If she had been more patient, things might not have escalated to this point.
But regret was useless; the problem had already been created. She could find no other way but to cry, make a scene, and threaten suicide to get her parents in the Jiang family to stand up for her.
The Lu family is clearly determined to make a clean break and have no turning back. What else can she do?
Seeing her crying, Jiang's father and mother finally remembered Jiang Tian.
They wanted to see what kind of bewitching magic this unfamiliar daughter had used to make the Lu family insist on having her.
When Jiang Tian arrived, the lawyer had already left. The negotiations between the two parties had failed, and he had to go back and explain the whole story to Grandpa Lu.
He's gone, but the oppressive atmosphere he left behind hasn't dissipated.
Standing in the center of the living room, Jiang Tian looked at Jiang's parents with cold faces on one side and Jiang Hanyan, who was crying and being comforted by a group of people on the other, and actually smiled.
"Dad, Mom, shouldn't you tell me why you called me back?"
"Don't call me Mom!" Jiang's mother screamed as if she had been stepped on.
She has never acknowledged the existence of this daughter.
Which is more important, a daughter you were born with or a daughter you raised from childhood?
Everyone has a different answer.
The daughter I gave birth to carries my blood; the blood ties can never be severed in this lifetime.
But raising a daughter involves years of companionship, energy, and effort. Watching her learn to speak and grow into adulthood, experiencing the joys and sorrows of motherhood, and cultivating feelings step by step, how could she be easily abandoned?
When Jiang's mother learned that her two daughters had been switched at birth, she was struck dumb.
She was completely lost and didn't know what to do.
Later, after meeting Jiang Tian, Jiang's mother finally made up her mind: she wanted Jiang Hanyan!
The more a person lacks something, the more they want it.
Jiang's mother was ridiculed countless times because of her peasant background, which made her both arrogant and insecure.
Jiang Hanyan was painstakingly raised by her mother into a graceful young lady from a prominent family. She was even scouted by a talent agent and entered the entertainment industry, where she played a great role and became a high-profile star in the eyes of others. As her mother, Jiang's mother was extremely proud.
Jiang Tian, on the other hand, did not receive a good education from a young age. She grew up in a family that favored sons over daughters. Her family never raised her properly and just waited for her to grow up to exploit her. How could they possibly teach her how to grow into a socialite?
