Pampered by Short-Lived Bigshot-Chapter 369 - 241 Furious: Disgraceful, Get Out of the Jiang Family (4 updates)

Tang Wan then noticed that the old lady had barely spoken two sentences from beginning to end. Her temperament was excellent, and she was quite caring towards the younger generation, seldom so silent.

She had heard from Ruan Mengxi that Jiang Zhaolin was making moves in the company, fearing that he and Jiang Zhenhuan were also in discord, yet still coming and going from the Jiang Family. In the end, it was all because the old lady harbored kind thoughts, not wanting things to become too ugly.

Her heart had been lost...

This time, Jiang Zhaolin had indeed lost.

Sure enough, just as the two were locked in an unyielding argument, the old lady suddenly erupted...

Raising her cane, she fiercely slammed it against the ground, emitting two dull thuds, "Have you had enough?"

"Old Mrs. Jiang, it really has nothing to do with me. It was all his doing. Otherwise, with my brains, how could I have thought of so much? You must believe me," Xie Jing was almost saying that he was a brainless person.

"Where’s the evidence? If you have evidence, deal with it. Otherwise, shut your mouth!" Jiang Zhaolin shouted angrily.

"Go investigate, there must be some traces. If you don’t believe it, just check," he didn’t want to be saddled with this blame.

"Trying to split our Jiang Family, you truly deserve to be punished."

...

"Everyone shut up!" The old lady raised her hand and knocked down the fruit plate with the snacks on the table to the ground.

The fruit plate shattered on impact, the sound so loud that even Jiangjiang upstairs heard it.

Startled, he shivered, not knowing what exactly had happened.

"Haven’t you caused enough trouble? Do you think I’m dead? Zhaolin, you’re not young anymore. Is there any sense in arguing with him here? Don’t you feel ashamed?"

The old lady gripped her cane tightly, her face dark with anger. Having held back for too long, she suddenly exploded, her eyes bursting with fiery rage, scaring Tang Wan.

In all the time she had known her, always benevolent and kind, she had never seen her this angry.

"Xiaowu and Wanwan are getting engaged. It’s a joyous occasion, and I invited you over for a meal. You start quarreling the moment you enter and haven’t stopped for even a moment!"

"What are each of you trying to do? Revolt against the heavens?"

"I’m still alive, and someone can still be in charge in this house."

A joyous occasion, yet it turned into such a mess. How could she not feel suffocated?

"This..." Jiang Zhaolin also instantly lost his fire, "About today’s events..."

"You don’t need to explain so much. I may be old, but I am not deaf or blind. Whether or not you have anything to do with this matter, you and I both know perfectly well."

As soon as the old lady spoke, Jiang Zhaolin’s heart jerked, and he felt it sink a few notches.

In his haste to argue with Xie Jing, he had forgotten that this old lady was not easy to fool...

"Your parents passed away early, entrusting your uncle and me with your care. Over the years, even after your uncle was gone, I never failed you."

The old lady, mentioning her grandson who passed away early, had her eyes instantly redden, "We are all parents. My heart aches for you and your wife. For many things, as long as you didn’t go too far, I turned a blind eye."

"Even last time when Shuyan incited the Zhuang Family girl against Wanwan, I was partial. I owe Wanwan an apology for that!"

"Grandma..." Tang Wan couldn’t bear to see the old lady with teary eyes, "I’m okay."

"I know you’re a good kid, but my heart just can’t get over it." The old lady sighed, "Zhaolin, kindness and compassion shouldn’t be used like this."

"There’s no evidence for this matter. You can’t just listen to the nonsense of these few troublemakers."

Jiang Zhaolin could tell by the look in her eyes that it was all over...

"Even without these events, over the years, haven’t you done enough things behind my back? Do you really think I’m blind and can’t see?"

"I just didn’t want to expose you, always thinking, after all, we are family. In the eyes of the elders, no matter how old, children are still children. I always thought you were just competitive, but not to the extreme!"

The old lady was clearly harboring long-standing anger, and now she unleashed it.

All of it directed at Jiang Zhaolin, who could hardly bear it.

"In the company, I’m not too clear, so I won’t mention it, but now, you’ve even reached out to the younger generation. What has Wanwan done to deserve this from you and your daughter?"

"In the end, it’s all because I’ve indulged you too much, making you insatiable! Shuyan, about last time, why did you target Wanwan? In the end, it’s nothing but feeling that I favored her a bit too much."

"Today, I’m laying down the line here. Even if Wanwan doesn’t marry Xiaowu, I like her and would acknowledge her as my adoptive granddaughter. If I give her my possessions, it has nothing to do with you! There’s nothing that is definitively yours, do you understand that?"
