Chapter 326: This Is What a Woman Should Do
ntrary, Xiang Jian was much more at ease since the establishment of the nation. He regained his former elegance and composure.He poured drinks for several people and chuckled softly, "Don't let unimpo...Jiang Qingran lowered her head, her expression dim, and said nothing.
Mother Jiang was furious and complained, "This child doesn't know what A-Wan has fed him. At first, he canceled his engagement with the Song family for that fox spirit and even ran away from home!"
"Now, who knows what YAN said to him He insisted on coming back and fighting Qingran for the inheritance! He even said he doesn't recognize Qingran as his sister! Dad, do you think he'll be carrying Jiang Corporation over to YAN's hands in a while"
Hearing this, Lin Tianting curled her lips and caressed her stomach, saying: "Jiang Qi Feng is just a fool. Either he's being led around by a cripple or he's being confused by a little vixen, look at what kind of son you've raised!"
"Shut your mouth! Did I ask you" Jiang's mother snapped at her son again, unwilling to have anyone speak ill of him, especially not this woman she despised the most, a prostitute!
Lin Tiantian's face turned ugly when she was yelled at. She hooked her arms around Grandpa Lin's neck and acted coquettishly, "Honey, look at her! She even dares to bully me in front of you!"
The Lin family and Jiang Qingran's family had seen such scenes many times, but every time they saw it, they still found it hard to accept.
They hailed from a scholarly family, but now their reputation has been tarnished by a shrewish young lady. Wherever they go, people point fingers and whisper about them!
Grandpa Lin softly comforted Lin Tiantian with a few words, then scolded: "How can you speak like that She's your mother! Apologize!"
Before her marriage, Jiang's mother was the most favored person in her own home. After marrying into the Jiang family, she had never suffered any grievances. Now, she was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes.
"Grandfather, Ms. Lin is the same age as me. She could be my mother's daughter. Asking my mother to call her 'Mom' feels… a bit too much."
Besides, my mom just casually complained about my brother a few words, and Miss Lin accused him like that. Isn't that going too far
Jiang Qingran knew she shouldn't speak up now, but after being rejected by Old Master He and Xiang Wan consecutively, she could hardly hold back any longer.
Lin Tiantian jumped to her feet, pointing at her and shouting: "What does it matter how old I am I married your grandfather, so in terms of seniority, I'm your grandmother. You have to call my son uncle! Don't like it Then just keep it to yourself!"
Lin Jia usually paid great attention to etiquette and language. Now, hearing her use such vulgar words, everyone's face was not looking good.
“Why are you getting angry with the younger generation” Grandpa Lin grabbed her hand and pulled her to sit on his lap. He fussed over her for a while, then said, “Qingran, your grandmother is pregnant, and pregnant women are more sensitive emotionally. You should be more understanding. I remember that you’re always the most sensible one.”
Jiang Qingran's breath was stuck in her throat, she couldn't cough it out or swallow it down. It was even more uncomfortable than having a fishbone stuck in her throat. She took a deep breath and, despite the anger welling up inside her, she still agreed with a forced nod.
"Today, I called you here at the behest of your grandparents." Old Master Lin stroked Lin Tiantian's long hair gently.
Jiang Qingran's face changed slightly, she had almost guessed what it was, but she didn't respond.
“As the CFO of the Jiang Corporation, you must be well aware of its recent situation.” Old Master Lin stated, “Because of your scheme to frame Yanan, the company’s stock price has plummeted several times, resulting in an 18% shrinkage in market value. Do you know how substantial that figure is”
Jiang Qingran was very unhappy that an outsider would criticize her like this, but she still tried to pull the corners of her mouth up. "I'm in business, I understand this side better than my grandfather. A large group like ours should focus on long-term development rather than short-term setbacks."
He implied something else, but Old Master Lin was too shortsighted.
“Your grandparents thought the same way, so after that happened, they didn't blame you, but comforted you instead,” said Grandpa Lin.
"So I'm really grateful to my grandparents. They are truly wonderful elders."
"But look at what you've done later!" Old Master Lin suddenly raised his voice, "You schemed against Old Master He, angered him, and caused the Jiang Corporation to fall into an even more difficult situation!"
"Your grandfather originally wanted to secure a good project to help the Jiang Corporation be less pessimistic. But you directly transferred the funds to the Xiang Group, leading to that project being snatched away by them!"
Jiang Qingran's eyelashes fluttered rapidly a few times, trying to pull the corners of her mouth up, but she couldn't succeed no matter what. "So...what do you mean by all this"
“Your legs aren't convenient, and you're not young anymore. What we mean is, you should step down as the CFO first and take good care of your health. After your leg gets better, meet with a few people we like. That's what a woman should do.” Old Master Lin said.
Jiang Qingran tightly gripped the wheelchair armrests, anger and disappointment almost overwhelming her, mixed with a heavy disbelief.
Mr. Lin, "You still have this afternoon, enough time for you to handle the handover, go prepare."
After he finished speaking, he stood up.
Jiang Qingran stood up from his wheelchair. To everyone's astonishment, he walked toward him, "Uncle, please wait a moment. My legs are almost healed. I just wanted to surprise you all before saying anything."
"What a scheming b****!" Lin Tiantian rolled her eyes, her voice loud.
Jiang Qingran pretended not to hear her, solemnly saying: "Grandpa, I can go to all the blind dates you and Grandma arranged, but I don't want to be a housewife. I still remember what you told me before, women must be independent, right"
“Independence is a personality trait, and it doesn't necessarily have to be reflected in how much money you make. Your strong work abilities, surpassing most men, can cause many men to feel unbalanced psychologically, which is not conducive to your future marriage.”
Jiang Qingran was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled, a smile that was both desolate and ironic. "May I ask why grandpa and grandma let my grandfather tell me this"
"You've disappointed them so much lately, they don't know how to face you. You came to me because I'm the elder who's closer to you." Old Master Lin said.
Jiang Qingran lowered her head and straightened her cuffs, saying bitterly: “It’s hard for my grandfather to come up with so many excuses. You guys are doing this because I angered Grandpa He, aren't you You're afraid of dragging down the Jiang family and the He family”
Mr. Lin stared straight at her, without speaking.
"Why did Grandpa call everyone here" Jiang Qingran could guess the answer to this question, but she still wanted to ask it hopefully.
Mr. Lin swept his gaze over the crowd, finally landing on her. “I called everyone here to show them what foolish things you’ve done for a man, so they can learn from your example!”
