“Whose guts gave you the audacity to commit misdeeds using my name out there!”

Suddenly, his words were sharp and severe, startling even Tang Wan who was sitting beside him, her heart pounding with fear, not to mention Jiang Shuyan.

Those eyes seemed to suddenly be wrapped in frost, like an ice blade reaching straight for her vital spot.

Jiang Shuyan’s breathing was rapid, her legs weakened by fright, nearly collapsing to the ground.

“Shuyan, is that so?” The old lady raised her hand to adjust her gold-rimmed reading glasses, her fingers caressing the handle of her cane, her emotions indiscernible.

Fan Mingyu held her phone, feeling a tightness in her chest from anger.

“I wondered why Xiaowu’s reputation was so bad outside. It turns out that there really is someone who likes using his name to engage in indecent activities.”

“Mom, if Xiaowu hadn’t found out about this, what would others think upon hearing the news, that he did it on purpose? What would the Tang Family think?”

“At such a young age, how can you be so malicious!”

Jiang Shuyan still stood straight, “Indeed, my cousin was going to call off the engagement, I was merely helping him.”

“You shameless thing, you still dare to argue!”

The old lady was livid, raising her cane to strike hard on her back.

“Thud—” A muffled sound.

The cane fell upon her back; though it was not as loud as a slap to the face, the muffled blow was not light. Jiang Shuyan’s face turned pale and her body wobbled, nearly falling to the ground.

“Based on your logic, all this you’ve done, targeting Wanwan and the Tang Family, it’s all for the happiness of your cousin and for the good of the Jiang Family?”

“Don’t use these things to cover up your filthy and ugly actions!”

“I warned you before, yet you did not listen, and still went around causing trouble under your cousin’s name?”

Jiang Shuyan clenched her teeth, her eyes brimming with resentment.

“What, you still disagree? Even if we are not satisfied with this marriage, or even if Xiaowu wants to break off the engagement, what does it have to do with you? Who asked you to make decisions for us!”

“Kneel down!” The old lady, also furious, swung the cane in her hand and gave her back another fierce hit.

The cane was made of solid wood, and the room was heated. Jiang Shuyan wasn’t wearing much, her skin soft and delicate. With the blow, she felt as if her spine was going to be broken, the skin tearing and flesh splitting.

Her legs went weak, tears welled up in her eyes, and even though she was unwilling, she still knelt…

Jiang Jinsang chuckled softly, “What were you insisting just now? That all things had nothing to do with you? Could you repeat that to me again?”

Blood filled Jiang Shuyan’s mouth from biting her lips; the pain in her back made her scalp tingle and her body tremble violently as she glared at Jiang Jinsang.

Would he still step on her like this?

Was he trying to force her to her death?

“Shuyan, you really are…” The old lady gripped her cane, both anxious and angry, “What grudge do you have against the Tang Family to target them like this?”

“It must be because you’re too fond of Wanwan. She must feel a sense of crisis. After all, in the past, Jiang Family had only one girl, and everyone doted on her,” Jiang Jinsang stated bluntly.

“Me, fond of Wanwan?” The old lady snorted coldly, “Could it be that all my years of kindness to her have been in vain?”

“Shuyan, tell me, have I ever wronged you in all these years?”

“What is it, that you weren’t the only one receiving attention?”

…

Jiang Shuyan had not yet spoken when Jiang Jinsang uttered another heart-piercing argument.

“Ungrateful after receiving charity! Even a dog shouldn’t be fed too full, let alone a person.”

Many people are like that, give them a piece of candy and they are grateful, but give them a pack of candy every day, then one day give them one less and they start to hold a grudge, harboring ill intentions.

It’s always the same with greed.

Jiang Shuyan was so angry that her body shook. He actually…

Compared her to a dog?

“But this dog, if it bites people indiscriminately, it will always fear being beaten. But this person…” Jiang Jinsang chuckled lightly, “Grandma, once a person becomes bad, it’s not something that your few words can easily persuade her to change, right?”

“No matter, I’ve seen clearly today,” the old lady sneered.

“Grandma, it’s not what my cousin said…” Jiang Shuyan attempted to explain.
