For Old Master Chu, this was a dilemma. He didn't know whether to advance or retreat.
"Old Master Chu, I'm not here to force you to make a choice. However, this matter is indeed very serious, so I ca to tell you in the hope that you will be on guard." Jiang Yu said.
Old Master Chu was silent. After a long ti, he said, "I understand. Thank you, Jiang Yu. It's already so late. You sacrificed your rest ti to tell about this."
Just as Jiang Yu was about to speak, she heard a commotion outside the door.
"Chu Jie, you can't go in! Second Grandpa is discussing sothing very important with Jiang Yu inside. Don't go in and cause trouble!" Jiang Rou's voice sounded.
"Why can't I go in? Sister Jiang Rou, you heard it just now, right? Jiang Yu wants my grandfather to acknowledge that illegitimate child! If my grandfather admits it, Chu Ran will return to the Chu family! Wouldn't he be taking away everything I have now?"
Chu Jie shouted, "Sister Jiang Rou, I'm the only descendant of the Chu family! Who is that Chu Ran? What right does he have to co back?"
"Calm down! Second Grandpa had never said that he wanted to acknowledge Chu Ran's identity, nor did he say that he wanted him to co back! Be quiet first. This matter has not been decided yet!" Jiang Rou advised, "Chu Jie, listen to . Go back to your room and rest. I'll give you a satisfactory answer when I wake up tomorrow morning, okay?"
"I'm not going back. I don't want to hear a satisfactory answer!" Chu Jie started making a ruckus at the door of Old Master Chu's study. "Sister Jiang Rou, get that Jiang Yu to co out right now. Tell her to co out as soon as possible! Don't let her continue to scare my grandfather!"
"Chu Jie…!" Just as Jiang Rou was about to continue speaking, the door to the study opened from the inside.
Jiang Yu pushed Old Master Chu's wheelchair and stood at the door. Old Master Chu looked straight at Chu Jie.
Chu Jie didn't care what Old Master Chu's gaze ant. Her eyes turned red and she leaned on him. She cried, "Grandpa, don't listen to Jiang Yu's nonsense. Don't admit that he's an illegitimate child. Don't let him return to the Chu family!"
Old Master Chu said helplessly, "Chu Jie, don't ss around. Jiang Yu sacrificed her rest ti to co to and tell about this. Don't be unreasonable anymore. Be obedient and go back to your room to rest."
"Then…Grandpa, promise that you won't admit that Chu Ran is an illegitimate child and won't let him return to the Chu family! I'm the only descendant of the Chu family. Now, everything belongs to ! If he cos back, he will definitely take everything that belongs to !" Chu Jie cried.
In the past, Old Master Chu would have agreed to Chu Jie's request without any hesitation. But now, he couldn't promise Chu Jie without considering the consequences.
Chu Jie couldn't wait for Old Master Chu's answer. She couldn't help but feel anxious. She shouted, "Grandpa! Say sothing!"
Old Master Chu remained silent. Jiang Yu, who was standing behind him, couldn't stand it anymore. She said to Chu Jie, "Chu Jie, the situation is very serious now. Don't be unreasonable here."
"You have the cheek to talk about ? What right do you have to call unreasonable? This is the Chu Family. You, an outsider, have no right to speak here!" Chu Jie pointed at Jiang Yu's nose. "If you don't speak and keep quiet, this fire won't burn you. But since you've spoken, I'll reason with you!
What right do you have to co here and say these things in front of my grandfather?"
"Because this matter is very serious. I ca to tell Old Master Chu so that he can be prepared in advance." Jiang Yu frowned.
"Do you think I'll believe you?" Chu Jie sneered. "How serious is this matter? I think you have evil intentions! You're saying that the power behind Chu Ran is Chi Rui? I think the power behind Chu Ran is you!
You've been colluding with Chu Ran for a long ti. That's why you ca to my grandfather today and said these ridiculous things to him!"
"Chu Jie!" Old Master Chu was a little angry this ti. He slapped his wheelchair hard. "Don't talk nonsense here! Hurry back to your room and rest! Go back now. I'll pretend you didn't say anything just now!"
"I'm not going back! Why should I go back? This is my ho! Even if you want to go back, you should tell this Jiang Yu to scram and stop talking nonsense!" Chu Jie shouted.
