Bai Jingjing's face showed more surprise than Guo Zhiping's. She didn't expect Professor Jiang to deny their relationship.
"Grandpa Jiang." Bai Jingjing quickly stepped forward, fearing that Professor Jiang would say something else.
Professor Jiang looked at her calmly and said, "Comrade Bai, we are not familiar with each other. What do you want to talk to me about?"
This attitude was too calm, which made Bai Jingjing angry. She looked directly at Professor Jiang and said, "Grandpa Jiang, my grandmother said that you used to be the most enthusiastic and loyal person."
Why have you become so cold now?
Although she did not say this out loud, Guo Zhiping and Professor Jiang both noticed the way she curled her lips after she finished speaking.
Guo Zhiping frowned first: "What's your attitude? How can you talk to Professor Jiang like this?"
Bai Jingjing raised her neck slightly and looked at Guo Zhiping with dissatisfaction: "We are relatives, this is a matter between us, it has nothing to do with you."
Guo Zhiping's face suddenly turned red. It was the first time he met a girl like Bai Jingjing, who was not only thick-skinned but also could say anything.
"Zhiping, there is nothing for you to do here. You should go back to class first." Professor Jiang knew that Guo Zhiping was a hard-working child, but he was a little stubborn. He could not win the argument with Bai Jingjing at all, and could not play any role here.
Guo Zhiping could no longer remember the matter of the two steamed buns. He just wanted to stay away from Bai Jingjing and didn't want to talk to her anymore.
But he was so angry that he couldn't help but tell this to a boy in the same dormitory when he went to class. Qi Mengmeng, who was reading a book in the back, happened to hear it.
"Student Guo, you just said you brought a girl to Teacher Jiang, and that girl said she was Teacher Jiang's relative?" Qi Mengmeng confirmed with Guo Zhiping?
"Yes, but Professor Jiang said they are just acquaintances, not relatives." Guo Zhiping remembered that Professor Jiang said this.
Qi Mengmeng looked at Guo Zhiping with an indescribable expression.
Is this guy stupid? What Professor Jiang meant by this is that the two of them have no relationship.
Thinking about how Zhang Meiling had been hiding in her house every day recently, she felt that the person Guo Zhiping met was Bai Jingjing.
Professor Jiang is a scholar. Qi Mengmeng was worried that Professor Jiang could not handle Bai Jingjing, so she wanted to go to his office to check, but the teacher had already come in. She could only listen patiently and then quickly ran to the office.
When she arrived at the office, only Professor Jiang was there.
He saw Qi Mengmeng standing at the door, breathing heavily, and asked worriedly, "Mengmeng, you came to see me? What happened?"
Qi Mengmeng calmed down her breath and said, "Uncle, I just heard from Guo Zhiping that someone was looking for you, so I wanted to come and see you."
"She's gone." Professor Jiang said calmly, but his face was not looking good.
"Gone?" Qi Mengmeng thought that since Bai Jingjing could find her way to the school, how could she leave so easily?
"Yes, let's go. I told her that I can't do anything about their family affairs and let her figure it out on her own."
Professor Jiang really said that. Bai Jingjing refused to leave at that time and talked about the fate of the two generations. She even said that it was because Zhang Meiling had snatched Bai Shuwen's husband, otherwise Professor Jiang would be her grandfather now.
There were other teachers in the office at the time, and Professor Jiang certainly could not allow her to slander his spouse like this.
Professor Jiang met Bai Shuwen only after he got engaged to Zhang Meiling, so it is impossible for the situation to be as Bai Jingjing said.
Moreover, the Bai family had spread the word from the beginning that they wanted to recruit a son-in-law. The Jiang family was not an ordinary family, so how could they allow their young master to marry into the Bai family?
Instead, Bai Shuwen privately met with Professor Jiang and said that as long as Professor Jiang was willing to marry her, she could marry him with the Bai family's property.
Professor Jiang refused sternly at the time. His character prevented him from saying bad things about Bai Shuwen in front of Zhang Meiling, but since then, he has never spoken to Bai Shuwen again.
So what Bai Jingjing said was complete slander.
There happened to be an old professor in the office at that time, who also knew Bai Shuwen.
When Bai Jingjing cried and said that Professor Jiang almost became his grandfather, he retorted: "The Bai family and the Jiang family have no contact. What you said is either made up by you or your grandmother."
Bai Jingjing had a look of disbelief on her face. Her grandmother clearly said so. So even though she came to Beijing this time to beg Zhang Meiling and Professor Jiang to do something for her, she felt very aggrieved.
She was almost Professor Jiang’s granddaughter.
If she was Professor Jiang's granddaughter, she could stay in Beijing and maybe even get admitted to Beijing University.
"What I said is true. I met Bai Shuwen for the first time after Meiling and I got engaged, and we met no more than five times. It's not like what you said at all."
Professor Jiang said seriously.
"Don't come to school to see me again. I can't help you with the Bai family's affairs."
Bai Jingjing looked bewildered. She really believed what her grandmother said, so she dared to go to Professor Jiang alone.
She thought that Professor Jiang was sorry for her grandmother and would definitely help her get the Bai family's house back.
Unexpectedly, things were different from what her grandmother said. Not only did Zhang Meiling not invite her to live in her home, but even Professor Jiang treated her badly.
"But, my grandma said that it was Zhang Meiling who stole her husband. If she asks you, you will definitely help." Bai Jingjing murmured to herself.
If it was Professor Jiang when he was young, he might have helped. But the current Professor Jiang was betrayed by his daughter, and it was only with Qi Mengmeng's help that the couple were able to survive. How could he care about Bai Shuwen's affairs?
"Let me say it again, I have only met your grandmother a few times, and we have no relationship. Go away, and don't come to my house in the future. You are not welcome in my house." Professor Jiang's face really turned dark.
Bai Jingjing didn't come to ask him for help, but to discredit him.
Bai Jingjing left crying in the end, and the teachers in the office also went to class one after another. Professor Jiang's mood slowly calmed down. Just as he was about to go to class, Qi Mengmeng ran over with a worried look on his face.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Professor Jiang held the textbook in his hand, his face completely different from the dark one he had when facing Bai Jingjing just now.
"Well, I'm glad that uncle is okay." Qi Mengmeng looked at Professor Jiang carefully and was relieved to see that there was nothing unusual on his face.
"Okay, go to class quickly. The next class is Teacher Xiao's. He will be unhappy if you are late." Professor Jiang reminded Qi Mengmeng.
Qi Mengmeng's eyes widened, and she nodded. Just as she was about to leave, she turned back and said, "Uncle, we're stewing chicken at home for lunch. Come over for lunch."
When she came out this morning, Qi Huilan told her that she was so focused on Bai Jingjing's matter that she almost forgot about it.
