Su Wanwan pulled her foot back after taking the first step. She was afraid of no one now, just like Xu Min said, she would take whatever comes her way.
However, she still had to show basic politeness to Su Suqin.
"Is there anything else you need to tell me, Grandma?" she asked.
Su Suqin was incredulous; she almost choked on the tea she had just taken a sip of.
"Cough cough!"
Xu Min quickly stepped forward to pat Su Suqin's back, and used this opportunity to target her: "Su Wanwan! How long are you going to torture the Jiang family?"
"Who's been tormenting the Jiang family? They probably know better than I do, don't they?"
Xu Min was about to retort when Su Suqin raised her hand to stop her, "Alright, you all stop arguing. Wanwan, what did you just say? Shengjun wants to do a new appraisal?"
Su Wanwan was also quite worried about her grandmother's health, after all, she was quite old and was still helping her grandson with this matter.
She replied gently, "Yes, Grandma, Jiang Shengjun is just like that. He hates it when people frame him."
"Absurd!" Xu Min protested.
"My daughter is carrying the Jiang family's child, yet she cannot gain the Jiang family's approval. It's utterly absurd!"
Even though Su Suqin wanted to solidify their love triangle.
It seems that's no longer an option.
Seeing that Su Suqin didn't say anything, Xu Min took Ouyang Maomao's hand and said goodbye to Su Suqin, then strode away.
"In that case, it seems Jiang Shengjun is determined to wipe us out completely. Our cat will be ready for a second test at any time!"
When Ouyang Maomao heard about the second appraisal, she couldn't help but panic again.
Tears streamed down her face again: "I've known Jiang Shengyun since I was a child. I remember him as a very gentle and responsible person. But now that he's met Su Wanwan, he's become so heartless that he doesn't even want to acknowledge his own child!"
She cried and sobbed, determined to achieve her goal.
“Grandma knew me when I was little, and I would never lie. Besides, I’ve always hoped that my child would have both parents by their side. If I were to abort now, it would harm my body. Su Wanwan has nothing, so why can’t she give in? Does she expect me to go to the hospital to get rid of this three-month-old pregnancy?”
At this point, Su Suqin finally spoke.
"Alright, of course I won't let Shengjun appeal again. I'll have someone withdraw the lawsuit tomorrow. The Jiang family will naturally take care of the Jiang family's children."
Hearing a satisfactory answer, Ouyang Maomao finally stopped crying, wiped away her tears, and began to apologize to Su Suqin.
"I'm sorry, Grandma, it's the cat that's causing you worry."
Xu Min couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she pulled Ouyang Maomao away. Before leaving, she said, "Let's go. I really don't want you to marry a man like that. If the Jiang family doesn't want to acknowledge this child, we'll raise it ourselves."
Su Suqin remained silent, sitting in the courtyard for a long time, unable to recover from her shock.
Su Wanwan sat beside her, and the two remained silent for a long time.
After a while, it started raining again. Su Wanwan asked someone to bring an umbrella. A little worried that Su Suqin might fall ill, she helped her back into the house.
Before saying goodbye to Su Suqin, Su Suqin asked her, "Wanwan, do you think Grandma went too far? Is the proposed plan too unfair to you?"
Su Wanwan paused, then turned back and smiled as she replied to the old lady, "Grandma's plan is good for everyone and very fair, but I know Jiang Shengjun won't agree to it."
In Grandma's opinion, the marriage between Ouyang Maomao and Jiang Shengjun would be a powerful alliance between the two families, which would also benefit the Jiang family's future.
My grandmother taking me in as her goddaughter will also benefit my future.
Jiang Shengjun simply disliked being falsely accused. What he wanted was never personal gain; he wanted his own innocence, and inner peace and tranquility.
Just as Su Wanwan said this, Jiang Shengjun appeared.
He always felt a warm feeling in his heart when he heard his wife express her innermost thoughts.
Su Wanwan was unaware of his arrival. She turned around and bumped into him. Looking up and seeing Jiang Shengjun, she asked, "Why are you here? Weren't you at the company dealing with some issues?"
He spoke frankly: "I heard that Grandma has prepared a plan for you, so I've come to hear it too."
He was still afraid that his wife would be bullied by others.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the Jiang family's old residence, I heard the servants say that Su Wanwan was quite the comedian.
Su Suqin didn't want to see Jiang Shengjun at the moment. She lay calmly on the bed and spoke through the bed curtains: "Let's all go back first. Let me think about how to solve this. That plan may not be feasible."
"Grandma, don't worry, I'll handle it myself. Wanwan and I are going back now."
Jiang Shengjun said this because he didn't want his grandmother to worry, but Su Suqin misunderstood it as her meddling and made a sarcastic remark when the two of them left.
"As expected, when people get old, they become useless."
"Now they don't even listen to their grandmother's advice anymore."
Jiang Shengjun felt uncomfortable upon hearing this and was about to retort when Su Wanwan grabbed his hand and gestured for him to leave.
Xiao Zhao drove the car directly from the parking lot to the building, so they wouldn't have to walk as far.
In the car, Jiang Shengjun asked Su Wanwan, "Why didn't you let me say what was on my mind just now? I know Grandma cares about the interests between the two families, but I'm not willing to use emotions to protect interests. If there are problems with the company, I can solve them."
Su Wanwan held his hand tightly and wouldn't let go. "Of course I know what you're thinking, and Grandma knows too. But Grandma hopes the Jiang family will become stronger and stronger. The only way she can think of is for you to marry Ouyang Maomao, so that the two families can form a powerful alliance. Now it's up to us to decide."
Jiang Shengjun looked out the window, his expression filled with sadness, his nose slightly red, and he muttered, "Anyway, I will not leave you. Even if the Jiang family goes bankrupt, I will not leave you and stoop to marry another rich girl."
Su Wanwan spoke frankly: "If the company faces a crisis one day, and everyone in your family hopes you will abandon me, I would rather you really abandon me."
Upon hearing this, he suddenly turned around and grabbed Su Wanwan's face. "I'm warning you, no matter what they say, you can't leave me, or I'll make you pay the price."
Su Wanwan pushed his hand away, leaned her head against the window, and looked at the torrential rain outside. She still couldn't make a promise to Jiang Shengjun.
He glanced at her expression and only said one sentence.
"I will see how things go and analyze each situation specifically, because plans are subject to change."
The two were sitting in the back seat of the same car, but far apart from each other, and both were looking out the window at the same time.
Su Wanwan picked up her phone and secretly sent him a message: "There's a recording device in the car."
Jiang Shengjun's phone rang. He answered it and replied: "I know there's a recording device in the car, but everything I just said is true."
She asked him, "Aren't you curious who planted the recording equipment?"
