Chapter 12 - Engagement
”Do you think that's possible?” Yang Xi felt that this girl, Jian Ning, was really a madman, and would always look for trouble with her when she was young. No matter how little she felt about her own existence, this girl would always be able to find her and find trouble with her, but the other party's identity was already there, even if he wanted to find trouble with her. In the end, others would think that she was in the wrong.
Furthermore, seeing Zhong's grandma today was looking at her as if she was her enemy for a whole day, and that Zhong's mother was also looking at her with an extremely resentful gaze for a whole day, causing her to be unable to bear it. Now that she had come again, no matter how good-natured she was, she could not just let her be.
”Yang Xi, don't think that you can get back at us, Mom has already found a wife for you, if this gets out, Zhong Family will definitely not take you, and we'll see what you do then.” Jian Ning saw that the other party was not moved by his words, and did not think that she would be able to endure it any longer, and directly said that she did not even think that she would be able to expose the good deeds of Mrs. Jian.
It could be said that the true identity of the once famous young lady of Jian Family was exposed. Furthermore, after finding out that she was betrothed to a Zhong Family before, his reputation had plummeted.
If not for knowing that she and Yang Xi were sisters, no matter how bad their relationship was, they would not have truly done anything to Jian Ning due to the face of the Zhong Family. Fortunately, the true love that she took a fancy to was not some descendant of a noble family, which could be considered one of the luckiest things that could happen to them.
”Oh, it's that grandpa again.” Yang Xi's eyes could not help but turn cold, Mrs. Jian's little plan was too obvious, even if she did not look, she would still know what she was up to. If it was in the past, then that would be fine.
”I didn't expect you to know about it.” Jian Ning could not help but be taken aback. At first, she did not react to it, but then she thought about how this damn brat could avoid her mother's eyes and live a good life to this day. It could be seen that he was not a simple person.
The more Jian Ning thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible that the other party had stolen her fiance, how could she still bear to bet on it?
Because the matter had reached a stalemate, the entire room became terrifyingly quiet for a while. When Jian Ning heard that the other party did not care about it, yet had not predicted that she would not have any thoughts with that old man, she only thought that she had stolen her fiancé, and could not let him leave the marriage.
”What's going on, this is the reason why you truly disapprove of Qian Qian marrying into the Zhong Family, right?” Grandpa Jane wanted to kick her out of the house because she dared to come to the old house at a time like this, but when she thought about how she had humiliated her son and couldn't let anyone else know about this matter, she could only let her in. She never would have thought that the moment she came in, she would ask him to push aside that little girl Sissy's marriage, saying that her little sister would steal her big sister's man and so on.
This truly pissed him off. After all, the little girl had always been with him, so all the upbringing was naturally raised by him. He would be told by his eldest son's wife that he was uneducated, so it would be strange if he wasn't.
”Dad, I'm doing this for Qian Qian's own good.” Mrs. Jian did not expect such a thing to happen at such a time, so he naturally would not recognize her, and would only try his best to say that it was for the other party's own good. He only felt that his daughter was too unreasonable, how could she find trouble for him at such a time, it was fine that she could not help, but she still did such a stupid thing.
”For Sissy's sake, don't call her by name, it makes me sick.” Since he was young, Yang Xi had not received equal treatment. He felt that since he was already like this, he naturally could not demand for others like the children of Jian Family, so whatever Yang Xi wanted to do, he had always respected the other party's intentions.
”Grandfather.” When Young Master Jian Jian Hongxuan found out that Yang Xi was going to marry her off to the Zhong Family, he actually felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Even if this person was his blood sister in name, in terms of relationship, he still could not accept it.
However, all of this was caused by her little sister. No matter how unhappy she was, this was the only way. Hence, other than feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, he was actually also relieved when he thought that whatever had happened to the Jian Family, and that there was only the Zhong Family, the chances of them standing up was still very high. He did not expect that the moment he knew about this, his Second Uncle would call and say that his mother went to his grandfather's place.
But how could he know that his mother was in the wrong? As her son, if necessary, he would always stand up for his mother. This was something he had to do for his son.
But in the end, he had taken the wrong step and acted like a son. Could it be that he was going against his grandfather for his mother? This was similarly unfilial. Coming out at this time, he could only take wrong steps.
”Alright, you guys can leave now. There won't be any more coming from now on.” It wasn't that Grandpa Jane wasn't disappointed by this grandson of his, but he already knew the result when his eldest son's wife did what she did. There was nothing else to say, so naturally he wouldn't be injured like he had imagined.
