While Lin Huali was busy at his company, a phone call came in. His secretary called him several times before he finally looked at the caller ID. To his surprise, it was Mrs. Jiang.
He immediately dropped what he was doing, grabbed his phone, and went out of the office to make a call.
"Hello, what's wrong? Mrs. Jiang, do you have any instructions? Oh dear, I've been wanting to apologize to your family. My daughter is really too disobedient. I've spoiled her since she was an only child, and I never expected her to become like this. She has caused your family a lot of trouble. I hope you don't mind. I will pay a visit tomorrow to sincerely apologize to you."
Madam Jiang shook her head and said, "No need. Such things are unavoidable. Besides, once they happen, you can't pretend they didn't. Since they've already happened, you naturally won't take them to heart."
However, I'm calling you today to tell you that the big project you've always wanted might not be available to you, because my husband has a new option.
Upon hearing this, Lin Huali felt his legs go weak.
He instantly felt like someone had poured cold water on him. He leaned against the wall, forcing himself to calm down, and then asked, "What's wrong, Mrs. Jiang? Is this matter too upsetting for your grandfather, so he's unwilling to give us the project?"
I know the main responsibility for this lies with our family. I haven't disciplined my daughter strictly enough, which has spoiled her and made her so arrogant and unruly. But I have already disciplined her severely! She won't do such a thing again, and besides, as you said, what's done is done. Why give this project to someone else?
Does this mean all the efforts our Lin family has made to secure this project have been in vain? You've always told us that if we marry Song Yuwei into your family and marry Young Master Jiang Cheng, you're confident you can give this project to our company. But now we've delivered on our promise.
I even arranged for my own precious niece to marry into your family, and suddenly you tell me it's off, just because my daughter made a scene, you erased everything. Isn't that unfair to us?
Madam Jiang raised her eyebrows slightly.
She sneered, feeling that Lin Huali was becoming more and more demanding. In the past, he always obeyed everything the Jiang family said and never disobeyed them. It could be said that whatever the Jiang family asked him to do, he had to do it.
But now things are strange. Not only is he unwilling to listen, but he also wants to argue. What's more, he didn't even ask what the choice was before he thought the project should be given to someone else.
"You still don't understand what I mean. Although I mentioned the choice, I didn't say that my father wanted to give this project to someone else. Let me tell you this: my father is indeed quite angry about this. However, it's all in the past now. He certainly wouldn't give such a big project to someone else over such a small matter. The main reason is still your niece."
Upon hearing this, Lin Huali suddenly smashed the wall with a hammer.
He said through gritted teeth, "I knew this girl was a troublemaker! I told her to marry into the family and be a good, obedient, and virtuous daughter-in-law who could handle both social and domestic duties. But instead, she's causing trouble for me at every turn. Tell me, what did she do to make you all so angry?"
Madam Jiang finally smiled with satisfaction, "It seems there is still hope for you. Our old man is already very dissatisfied with your Lin family because of your niece, so his decision will definitely not change. He is unwilling to give you this project, and he really won't."
However, it's not without a chance to salvage the situation. Even if this project is lost, there are other projects. Besides, our Jiang family company has plenty of such large projects; any one of them would be enough to ensure you a comfortable life for the rest of your days.
Lin Hua immediately chimed in obsequiously, "Yes, yes, you're right, that's exactly right."
Madam Jiang nodded. "Your niece isn't honest. Even though she's married to our Cheng, she's still flirting with other men. She's even with a pervert who knows she's married but still insists on pursuing her."
They even went so far as to make a big fuss, as if they wanted everyone to know, by hanging a banner outside her company that said they would still pursue her relentlessly even knowing she was married. What kind of nonsense is that? And that's not all; the worst part is that some random person filmed this whole thing and then posted it all over the internet.
Go online now and you'll see videos and photos of all the terrible things your niece has done, accompanied by various captions, making her a laughing stock. Some people are even saying that our Jiang family is blind to have let such a person marry into our family.
Lin Huali opened his mouth wide in disbelief.
He had no idea that Song Yuwei went to the Jiang family not because she had offended them with her sharp tongue.
It wasn't because she didn't know the rules and offended them, but because she attracted attention outside and even pushed the Jiang family into the spotlight, which angered the Jiang family.
He felt increasingly uncomfortable all over, as if disaster was about to strike.
You have to understand, the Jiang family's social status is something that their small, insignificant family can't possibly compare to.
If he really offends them, forget about giving them big projects; even his current company might go bankrupt.
He immediately said, "I will definitely ask her what happened, and I will handle this matter properly. I will absolutely not let the Jiang family continue to be harmed in this matter. I will also punish my niece. If necessary, I will beat her up! To vent the anger of the Jiang family!"
You two mustn't let this upset you and harm your health, because getting angry is very bad for your health!
Madam Jiang nodded. "Then let's go quickly. At least we can resolve this before our master really loses his temper. That would be the best outcome."
Otherwise, I have no idea how badly your family would fall if he really angered your ancestor. However, based on my understanding of him over the years, I'm afraid your Jiang family won't have a good outcome.
After Mrs. Jiang finished saying what she needed to say, she hung up the phone.
After hanging up, she and her secretary exchanged a smile.
"See, I told you, scapegoating is useless if it's far away, it has to be something close by."
