Chapter 356 - They Were up to No Good Against Me (1/2)
When Song Chunli asked Song Meiyu, who had just returned from abroad, to go for Jiang Rui, she had never expected that Jiang Rui not only refused to let her in but also kicked her out. Later, Song Meiyu went to the Jiang family clunching her belly, almost crazy. So the family sent someone to teach Jiang Rui a lesson.
“Why did you treat your cousin like this?” Song Chunli rushed in to scold Jiang Rui, “Why can’t Meiyu stay there for a few days? What are you afraid of? Is that woman not allowing it? What gives her that right?”
Chen Chen was accused even though she was innocent. However, she just shrugged her shoulders, pretending to hear nothing, and went on watching TV while eating an apple.
“Grandma, don’t say that. It was not my cousin’s fault!”
“Huh, not your cousin’s fault. Then it was my fault?” Chen Chen gave a glance at Song Meiyu.
Song Meiyu looked evasive but she went on, “It seemed that Chen Chen’s friend stayed here too, so there was no room for me.”
“What kind of friend? How do you fulfill your duty as a wife, bringing in any riff-raffs home?” Song Chunli stared at Chen Chen so angrily, as if she couldn’t even wait to tear her apart.
Chen Chen pointed to Jiang Rui and said, “That riff-raff is his brother.”
“Was he one of the the Ying family?” Song Chunli came to realize it.
Conscious of her mistake, Song Meiyu covered her mouth for little did she know about Jiang Rui’s foster family. The only thing she knew was that their surname was Ying. “Anyway, the foster family had nothing to do with Jiang Rui any longer.”
“So he’s my cousin’s brother!” She laughed innocently and continued, “Then he’s my brother too. I can talk to him to let me move in!”
Jiang Rui stayed silent while Chen Chen cursed him secretly. But a rhythmic sound of footsteps approached. It was a group of five or six soldiers who were wearing uniforms of special policemen, fully equipped, who had walked in.
“Officer, class one received the order. Please give us instructions.”
Jiang Rui pointed at Song Chunli and Song Meiyu then said, “These two women attempted to murder me. Take them to the police office for questioning. If they refuse to cooperate, lock them in the darkroom.”
“What… What do you mean?” Song Chunli was so furious about it that she was trembling. “I’m your grandma, how dare you treat me like this?” she said.
Song Meiyu shouted at the special policemen and said, “What are you going to do? If you dare to touch my grandma’s sister, grandpa Jiang Min won’t spare you.”
Chen Chen thought that the soldiers would be scrupulous. But those people seemed to not hear it at all, and they directly held the arms of the two and left.
“Jiang Rui, you are so ungrateful. You killed my son and now you dare to do this to me. The Jiang family has made a mistake to foster you. You beast…” There was a soldier who was likely Jiang Rui’s superfan and wanted to cover Song Chunli’s mouth.
“Let her go on.” Jiang Rui went on to the front with a sneer. After so many years of restraint, he could finally hold his temper and say without any concern to save her face. “If I’m a beast, then what are you?”
Song Chunli stared at him hatefully and said, “Let them take me away. I just want to see how you explain this to your grandpa!”
Chen Chen asked in a small voice seeing the two women had been taken away, “Isn’t this a little bit improper?”
“Not improper at all.” Jiang Rui shut the door. “I’ve said it before, whoever wants to come into my house is allowed to come in.”
“But she’s your grandma… not some riff-raff,” Chen Chen mumbled.
Jiang Rui took a glance at her and said, “You are going to school tomorrow. Aren’t you going to prepare the lesson?”
“I’m ready for it!”
“Are you sure?” Jiang Rui’s lip corner was cocked. “The students nowadays are very clever. If you lose face and get fired, I will definitely laugh at you.”
Chen Chen got up and headed towards the room, then stepped on his foot deliberately when she passed him by.
Seeing Chen Chen was just like an angry little rabbit, his lip corner rose again and then he walked in the study.
When Chen Chen went back to the room, she was preparing the lesson and somewhat anxiously waited to see how Jiang Rui’s grandpa would act. She stayed in her room until Tuan Zi returned. Until dinner time, Jiang Rui’s phone rang.
At that time, he was cooking noodles in the kitchen. But he hung up the phone without saying many words. Not until they finished half of the meal, Jiang Qianren arrived.
“You just arrested your grandma?” Jiang Qianren asked right after he came in.
Chen Chen was too shocked to ask, “You don’t even know?”
Hearing that, Jiang Qianren’s face went dark immediately. “So you did lock up your grandma?”
Song Chunli began to curse Jiang Rui at home that morning. But Jiang Min ignored her complaint and went straight to the army. However, Jiang Qianren was worried about her, so he comforted Song Chunli for a while and he left home till he saw her calm down.
But when he returned home after duty, the nanny told him Song Chunli and Song Meiyu had yet to return. He reckoned they had surely gone to see Jiang Rui so he called him. But he was only told to go to the special police force to look for them.
“Do you want to drive your grandpa mad? Such a shameful thing would lose the face of the whole family.” Jiang Qianren paced with worries. If Jiang Min knew it, he would be pissed off.
Jiang Qianren pointed at Jiang Rui and said, “Hurry. Go release them before everyone knows it.”
