The lights are coming on.
It was dinner time in the Jiang family villa, but the atmosphere was solemn throughout the Jiang family.
Old Master Jiang sat in the center of the living room, while the second and third wives sat on the other two sides. The younger generations on both sides were silent.
Jiang Yucheng sat opposite the old man, his face as cold as ice, looking even more oppressive.
It was not until Jiang Huai told him exactly what had happened in the room today that he realized how Jiang Su, Jiang Han and others had been attacking Xu Xu one after another before he came back.
Jiang Ying even directly told Xuxu to get out of her house.
And without knowing the whole story, he first blamed her for going to the Song family without permission, and then... like everyone else, he asked her to give the room to her sister.
No wonder, no wonder Xuxu was so disappointed that he said he wanted to move out.
He failed in his duty as a father.
"Brother, Yingying was just a little kid and caused this trouble today. It's all my fault. I will explain to Xuxu and try to get her to forgive me..."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Yao Lin took the initiative to take responsibility.
Jiang Yumin frowned upon hearing this, and pulled Yao Lin's hand, looking disapproving, "It's not your responsibility at all. Yingying is young, so she just said what she wanted. It's not a big deal. I think Xuxu is making a fuss out of nothing. She's only been back for two days, and she's running away from home for such a small matter..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Yucheng raised his eyes coldly and interrupted him in a deep voice, "Second brother, my daughter just came back but was forced to leave home, is this a small matter?"
The muscles on Jiang Yumin's face twitched. He met his elder brother's sharp gaze and finally did not say anything.
Jiang Yucheng swept his eyes over the few people one by one, his gaze was full of oppression.
"Jiang Ying is young, and she wants Xuxu's room because it's beautiful. It's not a big deal. The Jiang family is not a small family. If she likes it, you can just redecorate her room according to the princess's specifications with just one word. Why do you have to let Xuxu give up her room?"
The people from the second house didn't say anything, so Jiang Yucheng's voice became even deeper.
"You don't want her to give up her room. You just think that since she's new here, she should try to please you and behave well to beg you to accept her!"
"Brother, what you said is too harsh! They are just children, how could they have the thoughts you said?"
"No? If you didn't treat her as an outsider from the beginning, why would you say something like asking her to get out of my house? Even if it was just a child's angry words, he should know what to say and what not to say."
Jiang Yucheng's tone was a little harsh. Jiang Ying, who was standing beside him, trembled and immediately shrank into Yao Lin's arms in fear. Her mouth pouted, but she didn't dare to burst into tears like before.
Seeing this, Yao Lin's face was full of heartache, and she said directly, "Yingying said something wrong. I will go to apologize to Xuxu, ask her for forgiveness, and beg her to come back. As an elder, I will go to beg her in person. She will not really not come back. Big brother, don't blame Yingying..."
Jiang Han, who was standing by, saw his mother being so humble and begging for mercy in front of his uncle, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes. He couldn't help but speak out.
"Uncle, she wanted to leave on her own, no one forced her, and it wasn't my mother's fault, so why should we beg her to come back? Maybe she knew that she had done something wrong and angered the Song family, and she was afraid that grandpa would be angry, so she ran away from home?!"
Jiang Yucheng turned his head to look at him and said in a deep voice, "If Xuxu does something wrong, I will teach her a lesson, and she doesn't need to explain to anyone. But Jiang Han, if you still treat Xuxu like this, you don't have to call me uncle anymore."
His voice was not loud, but it made Jiang Han and the others' hearts skip a beat and they subconsciously widened their eyes.
Jiang Yucheng's eyes slowly swept over several young people in the hall, including Jiang Su and Jiang Cheng.
"The same goes for you. If you don't want to accept Xuxu, you don't have to call me uncle anymore."
Jiang Yucheng's voice was not loud, but it was unprecedentedly stern. Several juniors almost subconsciously straightened their backs and said they didn't dare.
Jiang Yutong, who always respected his elder brother, patted his son hard and smiled to smooth things over. "Brother, the kids may be mean, but they don't have bad intentions. It's not a question of whether to accept or not. Xuxu is our child. It's not necessary."
Jiang Yucheng's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was filled with subtle repression. He only said,
"Xu Xu has been missing for eighteen years. Even though the Guan family never lacked food and drink for her, she, as an adopted daughter, has suffered a lot of grievances in the Guan family. Now that she has finally come back, I don't want her to suffer any more grievances. I won't ask every one of you to accommodate her, but at least treat her as an ordinary family member."
He paused, his voice getting heavier, "If that's not possible, then I'll choose to live alone with Xu Xu and Jiang Huai."
As soon as Jiang Yucheng said this, it was like a huge rock falling into water, and everyone in the second and third rooms changed their faces in an instant.
They never expected that Big Brother would do something so big this time!
Just for Guan Xuxu, he wants to split up the family!
Just at this moment, Mr. Jiang, who had been silent from the beginning, finally spoke. His tone was not majestic at all, but it did not allow for any objection.
"Boss, I don't want to hear this again."
He said, "The Jiang family is a whole. As long as I am here, no one is allowed to talk about moving away again!"
Everyone in the hall was silent, and no one dared to refute the old man's words.
Even Jiang Su only dared to secretly mutter in his heart that Guan Xuxu had mentioned moving out.
The old man turned his gaze and looked at the couple in the second room.
"Children of the Jiang family can have whatever they want, but while spoiling them, they must also understand that they can't get whatever they want in this world."
