Chapter 323 - Jiang Bingqing’s Fate III (1/2)
Jiang Guanyu rubbed his hands, as if he could not sit still, ”Bingqing was a spoiled child, but she was only sixteen years old at the time. After all, she did not make the biggest mistake and fortunately Yijun and Qin Gengxin found you and saved your life. Dad knows how careless she was to you in the past but she doesn't even know how big of an incident she had caused to you. You can hate me and resent me and no matter how much hatred you have towards Bingqing, it should all be on dad's shoulders.”
Jiang Ruolan suddenly laughed coldly, ”So you actually know that there is a layer of blood relationship between father and daughter on both of us? But the funny thing is, you have neglected our relationship for more than twenty years and now, you used this reason to ask for my help to save Bingqing? If there is a day in my life that I feel that you have done your duty as a father, then perhaps I really would consider this little bit of affection to let go of that precious daughter of yours.”
Jiang Guanyu's expression stiffened. Zhan Lian quickly tried to persuade her, ”Ruolan, your father is usually busy and has so many things to do. If he doesn't consider you as his daughter, then why would he bring you to the Jiang Family?”
”That's because of my mother's suicide. He didn't want the matter to become a hot topic, so he tried to suppress the entire disturbance. He had no choice but to bring Yijun and me into the Jiang Family!”
Jiang Ruolan shot an indifferent glance at Zhan Lian.
”Suicide?” Zhan An exclaimed in surprise. She noticed Zhan Lian's face immediately turned ugly. ”Zhan Lian? What's going on? Didn't you say that Ruolan's mother died because of an illness? Why did it suddenly become a suicide?”
Old Man Xian frowned. Something was playing in his mind, but he didn't say anything. He just looked coldly at Jiang Guanyu, who had a similar pale face.
Jiang Ruolan ignored everyone's expressions. She sneered when she saw Jiang Guanyu and Zhan Lian's speechless expressions. ”What? Looks like you all really suppressed the matter with great force, even hiding it so carefully. If that was not the case, why did you take the risk to bring me into Jiang Family and use this method to shut up my mother's friends?”
”Ruolan, we are talking about Bingqing now. About the past that happened more than twenty years ago, I don't think it is appropriate for us to talk about it today.” After all, Jiang Guanyu has been immersed in the business world for decades. He just paused for a moment and then changed the subject. His gaze was so threatening as if he had warned Jiang Ruolan not to talk about it again.
Jiang Ruolan tilted her head and looked at him, ”Bingqing problem? Oh yes, your daughter was kidnapped last night. Have you caught the mastermind? I'm really curious. I am not a man, so what is the point of you asking me? Do you think I have power over the people from the Security Bureau? Could it be that a single word from me could erase all of Jiang Bingqing's mistakes?
Zhan Lian spoke urgently, ”We know that Zihao is controlling everything behind the scenes. As long as you are willing to let Bingqing off, Zihao will definitely respect your decision. Bingqing is his cousin after all, and if it wasn't for you, how could he have done anything to her!”
Jiang Guanyu also nodded as he looked at Jiang Ruolan expectantly. Jiang Ruolan looked at them and suddenly burst into laughter.
She didn't know what exactly she was laughing at, but she could not accept it in her heart. That was because of the grievances she endured for ten years in the Jiang Family. Although she was finally able to see their true attitude and appearance, Jiang Guanyu's attitude caused her heart to go completely cold.
Look, this was her father. The man her mother loved so much back then. A husband to a woman, who didn't even hesitate to kill herself and throw away her young and beautiful life.
Jiang Guanyu was completely bastard!
Jiang Ruolan gritted her teeth and resisted the urge to hit him while continuing to smile. ”Grandpa, mom, and dad, can I talk to Jiang Guanyu in private?”
Old Man Xian thought for a moment and then nodded. He signaled Zhan An and Xian Jian to leave with him. He also glanced at Zhan Lian.
Zhan Lian didn't move, as if she didn't want to give Jiang Ruolan and Jiang Guanyu a time alone and a chance to speak in private.
Jiang Ruolan looked at her indifferently. ”What is Aunt Lian afraid of?”
”Zhan Lian, come with me. I have something to ask you.” Zhan An said at the same time.
Zhan Lian was currently at the Xian Family Residence and this time, she came to ask for help. She couldn't be herself here and every time she thought about it, she became agitated, but she couldn't do anything about it. After giving a cold look to Jiang Ruolan, she got up from the couch and left as well.
