Chapter 475: The Blood-Eating Demonic Cave
"I gave clear instructions at the beginning. I wanted to save the young lady's life. To this end, I even sent a message to the young lady, telling her not to worry."
"Even if you gave me eight hundred courages, I wouldn't dare spread the news!"
Jiang Chongfan paused when he heard this.
"You said you sent a message to Wan'er specifically?"
The butler nodded.
"Yes, sir, every word I said is true!
Now, Jiang Chongfan understood everything.
He sighed slowly.
"Could it be... Wan'er herself..."
Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Chongfan felt extremely heartbroken.
"Wan'er...she's afraid of bringing trouble to our Jiang family."
At this time, Jiang Qingshan rushed over limping.
"Wan'er..."
"Wan'er..."
"Dad, what happened to Wan'er?"
Jiang Chongfan looked at his son and had no idea how to explain. He could only turn his head to the other side as if to escape.
Soon, another sharp voice sounded.
"Wan'er, my Wan'er!"
"How come you become like this out of nowhere?"
Mrs. Shen burst into tears when she saw her daughter suddenly become like this.
When she was tired of crying, she looked at Jiang Chongfan.
"Father, please tell me what Wan'er has been through. Why did she suddenly become like this?"
Jiang Chongfan turned his head and looked away, his voice no longer having the confidence it had before.
"This matter... was Wan'er's own will. You... just don't worry about it. Just bury Wan'er as soon as possible!"
When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she suddenly went crazy.
"What do you mean by voluntary?"
"Wan'er told me yesterday that she wanted to go with me to burn incense. Such a good person suddenly passed away. How could this be voluntary?"
"I think it was you who killed Wan'er!"
Jiang Chongfan is the head of the family, so how could he allow Madam Shen to speak to him like that? He immediately became angry and stared at her with a fierce look.
"How outrageous!"
"Do you know what you're talking about?"
"Don't forget, you are from the Jiang family!"
"Since you are a member of the Jiang family and have enjoyed the family's support, you must make sacrifices for the Jiang family!"
"Wan'er did something wrong, and she committed suicide because she was afraid of bringing trouble to our Jiang family. But you, Wan'er's parents, don't understand this at all!"
"You really are unworthy parents!"
When Jiang Qingshan heard this, he felt ashamed.
But Mrs. Jiang suddenly raised her head and burst into laughter.
"Bah!"
"What do you mean for the Jiang family?"
"For so many years, everything we did was for the Jiang family, but look at what we got?"
"Having hidden away in Jiangnan for most of her life, what kind of life has Wan'er led every day for the sake of your so-called family glory?
Now I finally came back, but it’s only been a few days, and before I could even enjoy these good days, I was gone!”
"In my opinion, we don't need to worry about the family's honor. The most important thing is to live a good life!"
"Where is the glory of your Jiang Mansion? It's clearly a man-eating den of demons."
“Bang!”
"Shut up!"
Jiang Qingshan slapped Mrs. Jiang in the face, causing her to stop talking abruptly.
She covered her face and looked at Jiang Qingshan in disbelief.
"You hit me?"
"How dare you hit me?"
"You hit me for that?"
"Don't you know how your daughter, your son, and you have been through all these years?"
"Are you still not awake?"
"You even hit me!"
As Mrs. Jiang said this, she covered her face and ran away.
Jiang Chongfan covered his chest with his hands, his body trembling slightly with anger.
“This…” |
He pointed in the direction where Mrs. Jiang left.
"This is the woman you married despite going against your family!"
"I've told you long ago. This woman from a humble family is so shallow and short-sighted that she's totally unworthy of me!"
"But you just wouldn't listen. You were even willing to leave home and go on a hunger strike to marry her. Do you regret it now?"
"Look, what is she saying?"
"What did you do?"
"If our Jiang family is handed over to you in the future, with her by your side, how can I...how can I feel at ease?"
Seeing that Jiang Chongfan was about to fall, Jiang Qingshan hurried forward to support him.
"Father, she just couldn't accept Wan'er's sudden death, so she went crazy. Father, please don't argue with her. I will talk to her properly."
"Although she comes from a humble background, she is also a reasonable person. As long as you break down the matter and explain it to her, she will understand."
Jiang Chongfan was helped by Jiang Qingshan to sit down and drank another cup of tea. Only then did he feel much better.
"Do you mean you will have to tell her everything in detail in the future?"
"Qingshan, you will be the head of the family in the future. You should focus on the big things and the overall situation, rather than the little love affairs and trivial matters in front of you.
Her presence will only hinder you, lower your thinking, affect your judgment, and possibly even affect your career."
"Now, His Majesty has yet to grant you an official position. Originally, I was thinking of letting Wan'er enter the palace and try to curry favor with His Majesty. But now... Wan'er has...
If you want to stand out, you have to find a new way, don’t you understand?”
Jiang Qingshan nodded, lowered his head, took the teacup from Jiang Chongfan's hand and put it down.
"Son understands."
However, Jiang Chongfan couldn't stop the anger surging in his chest as he watched his actions.
"you understand?"
"What do you understand?"
"If you understood, why would you only stare at the teacup in my hand?"
"Is this all you think about every day?"
"Don't you think about what method to use?"
Jiang Qingshan clenched his fists, his fingertips trembling slightly.
"My son is stupid, please enlighten me, father!"
"Dull, dull, dull, clear up, clear up, clear up!"
"After I die, will you still want me to answer your questions?"
"I want you to think, think, understand?"
“Is this difficult?”
Jiang Qingshan's hands shook even more violently.
"Son, I'm just afraid that I won't do well and will be punished by my father?"
Jiang Chongfan sighed.
"Only if you do it can I know if you did it right?"
"If you do well, why would I punish you for no reason?"
"Don't you think so?"
"Yes." Jiang Qingshan nodded.
Jiang Chongfan felt helpless when he heard Jiang Qingshan's submissive tone. He sighed and said no more.
"That's all."
"You go first!"
"Leave me alone for a while!"
When Jiang Qingshan heard this, he felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
