Chapter 125 - Jiang Family II (1/2)
Seeing that Jiang Ruolan had ignored him, Jiang Guanyu looked at her with slight dissatisfaction before shifting his gaze to Xian Zihao.
”Zihao, this is our family matter. Bingqing is a little headstrong, so she can't distinguish between what she should say and what she shouldn't do but Ruolan--'
”Uncle.” Xian Zihao did not show any expression. His voice was also light, but his hand holding onto Jiang Ruolan's shoulder tightened. He didn't want to let her go. ”No matter what status Ruolan had in your Jiang Family, she's my wife here.”
Jiang Ruolan took a deep breath and raised her head to look at Xian Zihao's handsome face with a calm expression. Her ice-cold heart seemed to have been melted by something warm, and her hand in Xian Zihao's palm was no longer stiff.
”Zihao, this marriage is too hasty.” Zhan Lian suddenly said while sighing. In her eyes, there was a hint of frustration and dissatisfaction with the marriage.
Zhan Lian was Zhan An's sister, Xian Zihao's aunt. When she said this, it made Jiang Bingqing snort even more righteously, ”What do you want to wonder. Jiang Ruolan had managed to climb into Big Brother Zihao's bed and use public opinion to create a topic that would force him to marry her! This kind of woman was too cheap! How could our Jiang Family give birth to a slut like you!”
”Jiang Bingqing!”
Without waiting for Xian Zihao to open her mouth, Jiang Guanyu suddenly scolded her in a low voice, ”Zihao is right. This is not the place for you to throw a tantrum. You told me that Zihao will be here today, that's why I'll bring you two to meet him. Why didn't you tell me Ruolan had returned? Do you know how ugly you make our family look right now?!”
Jiang Guanyu glared at Jiang Bingqing as he said this. Jiang Bingqing's expression turned cold, and in the blink of an eye, she leaned towards Zhan Lian in a grievance. ”Mom… I'm trying to fight for Cui Liuxian. You know how much she loves Big Brother Zihao.”
”Isn't this Jiang Family?” Suddenly, just as the smoke from the battle reached its peak, a voice interrupted.
Cui Liuxian approached them with a smile. She took a look at the looks on everyone's faces and the situation before her as she raised her eyebrows and smiled, ”What happened? Why did everyone's expression turn so ugly? Did I miss something?”
Xian Zihao glanced at Shi Zheng calmly. Jiang Ruolan didn't have much of an expression on her face. They all knew that this woman was aware of the situation. It was obvious that she was here on purpose. She wanted to add insult to injury.
However, neither of them responded. Xian Zihao was standing beside Jiang Ruolan, protecting her with a gentle yet powerful air. He lowered his head to look at her face, a hint of care and concern shown in his eyes.
Jiang Ruolan's gaze met him. The moment their eyes met, she sincerely raised said, ”I'm fine.”
The two of them looked at each other with a faint smile. It was as if they no longer needed to argue in this situation. It was as if they had already won.
Shi Zheng, who was standing by the side watching everything with a sneered face. She came here to add fuel to the flame but who would think things didn't go as she planned.
However, Shi Zheng was not as stupid as Jiang Bingqing. Looking at the situation, she only said hello to Jiang Guanyu before walking away.
