Chapter 149: Chapter 149 No Need to Indulge Anymore
Losing the affection of the Jiang Family was Jiang Zhe’s own loss, and no one else was to bla.
Liang Jinlan stood on stage, her eyes red-rimd and swollen with sorrow, as she fought back the tears.
This only incited more sympathy from the audience.
Jiang Fanyue had always feared that Jiang Zhe would cause trouble, but now that the mont had co and gone without any sign of Jiang Zhe, her heart, which had been in a frantic panic, finally started to calm down a bit.
She hadn’t expected that after hours of fear and apprehension, in the end, there would be no trouble at all.
It was then that she walked onto the stage, supported Liang Jinlan, and whispered words of comfort: “Mom, don’t be sad anymore. As long as sister can lead a good life after she goes back, we don’t need to worry.”
Down below, so relatives were already expressing indignation on their behalf: “Jiang Zhe is already like this, and you still hope she does well? If you ask , she should be made to suffer!”
“Yeah, such an ungrateful child! Really. Why do you still care about her? From now on, you should just cut your ties and be done with it early.”
“But she is my sister after all…” Jiang Fanyue said kindly.
“Silly child, what kind of sister is she like this? From now on, you should take on the responsibility of the family and sever your ties with her as soon as possible.”
“Exactly, actually having soone like that leave you might turn out to be a good thing for you all.”
Most people in the audience were parents themselves, naturally hoping for filial, sensible children who understood gratitude and yearned for family harmony. Hearing about Jiang Zhe’s actions, they all put themselves in that situation.
Just imagining having a child like that was enough to distress them greatly, so they all spoke in support of Liang Jinlan and Jiang Fanyue.
An elderly man of considerable respect and reputation stood up.
“Grandpa Huang,” Jiang Fanyue imdiately greeted him, polite and respectful.
Grandpa Huang, leaning on his cane, walked to the front of the stage, under the gaze of everyone present.
He was a distant relative among the Jiang Family’s relatives, not frequently in touch, and Jiang Fanyue recognizing him imdiately pleased him greatly.
His family didn’t have much power or prestige, but he had served as the village head for many years in his own village, and even now in his old age, he was still highly respected.
He spoke up, saying: “Since Jiang Zhe has turned out to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing, you don’t have to concern yourselves with her interests. I’ll make a decision, arrange sothing. If in another half hour Jiang Zhe hasn’t shown up, you all don’t have to give her the money, and from now on, she’ll have nothing to do with the Jiang Family!”
He was used to making decisions and hadn’t managed a matter this significant for many years.
At this mont, he regained so of the spirit from his youth.
The behavior of a junior like Jiang Zhe had infuriated him, prompting him to involuntarily step in and handle the matter.
What he didn’t know was that his na wasn’t originally on the guest list; it was Jiang Fanyue who had added it.
Why would the Jiang Family usually associate with soone like him?
But Jiang Fanyue knew his character, knew he would be righteously indignant and would stand up to say sothing like this.
If either Liang Jinlan or she made such a statent themselves, it would make the Jiang Family seem unkind.
However, when an elder, especially one who claid he had no interest in their benefits, a reputable elder, made the statent, the matter seed naturally settled.
“Grandpa Huang, maybe my sister just had sothing co up at the last minute…”
“At this point, what could possibly co up at the last minute?” Grandpa Huang waved his hand and said, “I know you young people these days are all loose and careless, but no matter how careless, we can’t disregard a family banquet. No matter what grudge she holds in her heart, after all, it’s the Jiang Family that has raised her for all these years, don’t you agree?”
Heads nodded in agreent from below, all thinking he was right.
There was no need to indulge Jiang Zhe’s behavior any longer!
Jiang Fanyue appeared to be in quite a dilemma, glancing over at Liang Jinlan.
After the mother and daughter mulled over the difficult decision for a while, they finally agreed.
With all the fuss, the half hour had passed.
Forget about Jiang Zhe; aside from a waiter, not even a ghost’s shadow was at the doorway.
Sighing, Liang Jinlan’s voice carried a desolate tone, “Although I’m reluctant, in this lifeti, it seems I’m just not destined to be with Jiang Zhe. From now on, I have to harden my heart and focus on my own children. I can’t manage anything else.”
With her words, she made a thorough end to the matter.
The situation was settled, the dust had settled.
It was as if, unexpectedly yet sohow expected by everyone.
Jiang Fanyue’s heart, filled with worry and fear, finally settled down as well.
Not only did the mother and daughter successfully announce to the world that they had kicked Jiang Zhe out of the Jiang Family, but they also earned a reputation that money couldn’t buy.
Outside the hotel,
a Rolls-Royce was parked at the entrance.
The person who had co was Qin Feng’s assistant, the sa person who had brought Jiang Zhe a gift when she first helped Qin Feng with her pregnancy.
“Assistant Zhang, shall we go in now?” the driver asked.
“Let’s assess the situation,” Assistant Zhang replied. “Miss Jiang might not be willing to accept the gift. The last ti the young mistress had
send gifts, she didn’t accept a single one.”
“That’s quite a principled young lady.”
Assistant Zhang truly admired Jiang Zhe’s integrity; last ti the Tang Family had sent a substantial gift, and she hadn’t even glanced at it.
So this ti it was a challenging task.
This ti it wasn’t Qin Feng who had sent him but Mrs. Tang herself.
How much Mrs. Tang valued the child in Qin Feng’s womb was sothing anyone could imagine.
Put plainly, Qin Feng was still young, talented, and beautiful, capable of having children at any ti.
But the one belonging to Tang Yu, the legitimate heir of the Tang Family, that was only the child in Qin Feng’s womb.
That’s why she had arranged for Assistant Zhang to bring gifts to Jiang Zhe, knowing full well that even without gifts, Jiang Zhe would do her best.
But by sending them, it would give more peace of mind; rather than saying Mrs. Tang was giving a gift, it was more like she was performing any and all ceremonies that could make her feel at ease.
During the banquet, the guests were rrily toasting and chatting, imrsed in a lively atmosphere.
When the double doors of the hall were knocked, everyone’s attention turned towards the entrance.
Who could it be at this ti?
All the guests had arrived, and matters had been resolved. Surely it couldn’t be Jiang Zhe coming back again?
Liang Jinlan said with heartfelt anguish yet determination, “Even if it’s Jiang Zhe coming, the relationship can’t be restored. Just say I don’t wish to see her again.”
Her appearance of a heart deeply wounded moved everyone, stirring up feelings of compassion.
Yet they all felt it was a good thing she could let go.
“Jiaheng brother?” Jiang Fanyue looked to Gu Jiaheng for a decision.
“Have soone open the door,” Gu Jiaheng replied. He was curious to see what Jiang Zhe would do this ti.
When the door opened, the person standing before everyone was not Jiang Zhe.
Instead, it was a very efficient-looking young man in a suit, followed by several people carrying boxes of uniform size, decorated with pearls and jewels and carved with dragons and phoenixes. One could tell at a glance they were extrely valuable.
Among the guests were those experienced with the world who recognized the identity of the newcor, expressing their delight: “Isn’t this Assistant Zhang? He’s the assistant to the Tang Family’s young mistress, who is also the young lady of the Qin Family!”
