Chapter 396: 365 Miss Jiang is a very ladylike, except for her sharp tongue (1 update)_1
"Zhao Xinlan, who the hell are you saying lacks manners? Say it again." Hearing this, Jiang Qimeng couldn’t hold back any longer. With eyes wide and glaring, she wanted to rush over, in that second, wishing she could get up there and tear Zhao Xinlan’s face to shreds.
However, what she didn’t know was that Zhao Xinlan was not someone to be trifled with.
After all, a woman who has been remarried, daring to bluntly tell the man she loves to properly educate his own daughter, was naturally no pushover.
Additionally, she had sound principles.
She wouldn’t blindly love a man to the point of blindness, to the extent of being utterly foolish; when she thought something was wrong, she would point it out to the other party.
This was probably why she wasn’t liked.
Even if Zhao Xinlan was tough to deal with, when Tang Su was around, how could she let other people bully her godmother?
Especially when her godmother wasn’t in the wrong—when she hadn’t said or done anything wrong?
With right on their side, and the other party still wants to resort to violence?
Tang Su immediately stood in front of Zhao Xinlan, shielding her. When Jiang Qimeng stretched out her hand, Tang Su grabbed it. Jiang Qimeng wasn’t the type to just take a beating lying down.
Jiang Qimeng struggled, but her flowery punches and embroidered kicks were nothing compared to Tang Su, who had been training with punching bags with her father and her uncle since she was young.
She hadn’t stuck with the punching bags for very long, but still, her strength was much greater against those who had never punched a bag and only practiced some fancy boxing moves for fun.
Unable to pull away, Jiang Qimeng’s face flushed with anger as she yelled at Tang Su, "You cheap woman, let go of me."
"You’re showing even less class by saying you were never taught manners. Are you the only one without a mother, Jiang Qimeng? There are plenty of kids without mothers or fathers who end up as important people. But look at you, willingly debasing yourself."
Tang Su didn’t let go; Jiang Qimeng’s mouth was foul, and she deserved to be slapped for it.
But hitting someone could cost money, and a person like Jiang Qimeng would probably relish such an opportunity to extort a nice sum of money from her.
She wasn’t stupid; how could she possibly give Jiang Qimeng such a chance?
Jiang Qimeng wanted to keep hurling insults, but at that moment, Tang Feng stepped in.
When they were young, the two had met, but at that time everyone was still growing up, and Jiang Qimeng, thinking of herself as the Jiang Family’s princess, pampered by Jiang Tao and everyone else in the Jiang Family, had always looked down on the Tang siblings.
Later, Tang Feng joined the military, and even when he returned home, they had no opportunity to run into each other.
However, every time she came home for dinner, she would hear Zhao Xinlan telling Jiang Tao how Fengfeng, that boy, just kept getting more handsome.
Jiang Qimeng didn’t take any stock in it. To her, none of the Tang family had faces she could appreciate.
But at this moment, her face flushed even more. The man in front of her was so striking, even with his stern expression. His features were sharply defined, so three-dimensional.
And with his nearly six-foot-three frame, skin naturally tanned and gleaming without any need to sunbathe, he exuded a magnetic charm that could capture hearts.
Right, if every man looked like this, instead of being one of those creamy-faced pretty boys, would she even need her father pushing her to get married?
She would have thrown herself at them long ago, okay?
With Tang Su holding Jian Qimeng’s hand, she was the closest to see her peculiar reaction. Tang Su naturally felt it.
Especially since they were both girls, that stupid, sappy expression when someone is lovestruck—most girls who’ve had crushes have looked like that.
So, was Jiang Qimeng falling for her big brother?
This woman who saw herself as a princess, was she actually falling for her brother?
Could that really be happening?
"Big brother—" Tang Su called out to Tang Feng while she also released Jiang Qimeng.
She kept her eyes fixed on Jiang Qimeng, and sure enough, right after she called out "big brother," Jiang Qimeng’s reaction was as awkward as if she had swallowed a fly.
"..."
This man is Tang Feng?
How come he looks nothing like the man she remembered?
Thank goodness, her feelings had just started to bud and had been nipped in the bud by Tang Su. That’s good.
No matter how charming this man before her might be, his name is Tang Feng, he’s Tang Su’s big brother, and that makes anything between them impossible.
She won’t give Tang Su’s family any chance to disgust her.
"What happened? Got the short end of the stick?" Tang Feng glanced at Tang Su and then looked at Zhao Xinlan, noting that not a hair on their heads was out of place; it was just that the atmosphere had become a bit tense for a moment.
"No, Miss Jiang is very ladylike, except for her nasty mouth."
"Aunt, let’s go. This woman is adamant about the divorce; I think it’s better to get it over with sooner rather than later." Jiang Qimeng was frustrated, but they were only two against three, and there was one tall and burly man; they were no match for them.
"Mengmeng, we didn’t come here today to discuss this matter," Jiang Mei refused to leave and looked at Zhao Xinlan, "Sister-in-law, I know you want a divorce. But you and my brother aren’t divorced yet, are you? Until the divorce is final, you are still my sister-in-law."
"My brother has gone missing. No one’s at home, his phone is switched off, and we’ve searched all the places he usually goes to. We really had no other choice but to come to you."
"Sister-in-law, no matter what happens between you and my brother in the future, you’re still husband and wife now. As a couple, you should go and find him, talk to him. He must be in a terrible mood now; he’s been suspended from work. You know about this, don’t you?"
"If you ask me, your big brother is getting his comeuppance way too late," Zhao Xinlan scoffed.
Jiang Mei: "..."
Jiang Mei genuinely hadn’t expected such a composed reaction from Zhao Xinlan when she brought up Jiang Tao’s disappearance and probed whether she knew about his suspension.
Does she really not love her big brother anymore?
But she had so clearly been deeply in love with her big brother, hadn’t she?
"Zhao Xinlan, don’t you think you’re being too heartless?" Jiang Mei’s face turned cold too, after she had been trying hard to maintain a smile until now.
She couldn’t hold back any longer.
"Now that you know it’s not too late, so please, don’t come to the Tang Family’s place looking for me again. I’ll be moving out in a few days. You might not mind being an embarrassment, but the Tang Family does."
"In the past, our two families had some distant relation and you didn’t see fit to visit so often. Now that the Jiang Family is facing trouble, you’re quite prompt. Those who don’t know the reason might be one thing, but those who do—do you ever wonder if your actions will make people despise you?"
"Zhao Xinlan, do you ever watch your tone? What do you mean by saying our Jiang Family is going to be unlucky? Who told you that? Or is it that my dad’s situation is due to your family’s plotting behind the scenes? How can you be so evil, unable to bear seeing our family do well, right?"
"Jiang Qimeng, you’re really brain-dead," Zhao Xinlan lost her patience and rolled her eyes at the aunt-niece duo.
Didn’t they say Jiang Tao had gone missing?
One is Jiang Tao’s own sister, and the other is his daughter. The man is missing, and instead of searching for him, they come here to give her trouble?
This poorly constructed lie, do they really think she’s a fool?
She wanted to see what Jiang Tao would instruct the Jiang Family to do to her next.
Being able to send Jiang Qimeng suggests that the only good quality the Jiang Family has is unity in the face of serious matters.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have grown so wealthy so quickly over the years.
Just that they’ve taken the wrong path.
If they had stuck to the right path, they wouldn’t have run into this disaster today.
