My Little Sweet Wife

Chapter 129 - Another Confrontation With Jiang Family I

Seeing the sneer on her face, Jiang Guanyu looked a little unhappy. He walked to her side and looked at her emotionless face. "Ruolan, I know you have grown up, and dad is old. Let's not care about the old stuff anymore. It's all in the past. It's not easy for you to come back to G City, so let's go inside and have a talk, what do you say?"

Jiang Ruolan acted as if she didn't hear him and stared at a willow tree in the front yard. Seven years ago, she was lying against this snow-covered tree and almost frozen to death.

Many years ago, she would often sit under that tree and stare blankly at the sky. She had no idea how big the sky was and thought that the Jiang Family was her entire world.

Jiang Guanyu had never been as attentive towards her as he was now. When she and Jiang Yijun were in the Jiang Family, he never cared about them anymore. Every time he saw them being bullied, he would turn a blind eye. Every time he saw them, he would always look at them with disdain.

In the past ten years that she had been in the Jiang Family, she had never seen her father more than a few times. And every time she saw this father of hers, he would pass by her with no expression on his face, as if she were the child of a servant who was living in their house.

He would act indifferently with her, but when he was with Jiang Bingqing, he always looked at her and pampered her, walking around the house with Jiang Bingqing in his arms. "Dad brought a gift for you. Try to guess what it is?"

While Jiang Ruolan, where was she at that time? She could only look at this scene from the pillar. historical

Those hugs she didn't own, those gifts she never received, none of which Jiang Guanyu ever gave her.

In the past, Jiang Ruolan never hoped that she could get care and treatment from the Jiang Family. She can only hope that the day will pass quickly, but life was often inferior to one's wish. All she wanted was to live in peace, but she will be bullied and beaten by Zhan Lian every day.

Actually, Jiang Bingqing's domineering attitude and bullying since she was young were not to be blamed. With such a mother's teachings, how could she be any better?

And since when did her dignified father patiently stand by her side and say that he wanted her to go home and wanted her to accompany him?

It's all in the past?

Huh. What a joke!

Jiang Ruolan narrowed her clear eyes and looked at Jiang Guanyu's serious expression as if she suddenly thought of something.

Although Jiang Guanyu was a well-known rich person and had a great Jiang Family behind him, he was still nothing compared to the Xian Family.

He was worried and afraid of the Xian Family. It was fine if Xian Zihao didn't do anything to her, but last night, Xian Zihao's attitude was very obvious, so Jiang Guanyu was afraid that the Xian Family would do something to him. That's why he wanted to end the conflict with her.

It turned out that his fatherly love was something that could be used. Jiang Guanyu's fatherly love was rotten and cheap to her right now, and it wasn't worth it for her to be moved.

"Let's go inside." Jiang Guanyu urged on the side.

Jiang Ruolan remained unmoved, "Chairman Jiang, if you have finished what you want to say, then I will be leaving now. I followed you because you said there's something you wanted to talk with me. If this is all you want to say, then I'm sorry, I have something to do today. The report from yesterday's meeting is not ready yet. I don't have time to waste."

"Is that how you talk to your father?" Jiang Guanyu's eyebrows furrowed, and his voice was cold, just like when he was young. He always lacked warmth and patience.

"What attitude would you like me to have instead?" Jiang Ruolan gave him a hard look.

Of course, she knew how cold her attitude was. Between a daughter and father, this way of communication was indeed abnormal, but to Jiang Ruolan, she was already giving Jiang Guanyu a lot of face by talking to him in such a patient manner.

No one would ever feel the slightest bit of shadow in their hearts when facing such a childhood. They had never given her warmth, and she had never owed them a single bit. In front of a beast, this was already her limit.

"It's cold outside, let's talk inside." Jiang Guanyu looked away and walked to the leaf-covered yard.

However, Jiang Ruolan did not follow him in. Instead, she went in the opposite direction and directly bypassed the car that was stopped in front of the door. She wanted to leave this place.

"You don't want to see Auntie Wang again? She is almost sixty years old and this is her last year with Jiang Family. She will return to her village next year."

What Jiang Guanyu said finally made Jiang Ruolan halt her steps. She turned around hesitantly and looked at the courtyard full of fallen leaves.

Auntie Wang…

When she was hungry, Auntie Wang would take the charcoal stove and secretly teach her how to roast potatoes in the backyard. Sometimes, when she was cooking in the kitchen, she secretly poured a delicious soup for Jiang Ruolan to drink, and on the nights when she (Jiang Ruolan) was sick, Auntie Wang would go to her room to feed her medicine and help her dry her body.

Auntie Wang was the only person she missed in the Jiang Family.

Jiang Ruolan turned back towards the Jiang Family Main Hall and immediately entered.

When she walked into the living room, Zhan Lian and Jiang Bingqing were nowhere to be seen. She hesitantly looked at the empty living room until Auntie Wang, who was about to wipe the banister on the stairs, saw her.

She couldn't help but open her eyes wide and stare blankly in her direction.

"Auntie Wang." Jiang Ruolan's eyes were slightly hot. She curled her lips into a smile as she looked at Auntie Wang, who had aged quite a bit.

"Miss Ruolan?" Auntie Wang was a little surprised. Holding a cloth in her hand, she quickly walked over and respectfully nodded at Jiang Guanyu who was beside Jiang Ruolan. Then, she looked at her (Jiang Ruolan) with eyes full of joy. "It's really you, Miss Ruolan? Miss Ruolan, you're back!"

So it turned out that the word "go back" could still be used for her family.

Jiang Ruolan smiled, then she holds Auntie Wang's hand. "I came to see you."

Hearing her say that, Jiang Guanyu walked away with some dissatisfaction. He coughed and said, "Auntie Wang, go get her some water."

"Oh, okay. Miss Ruolan, please take a seat. I'll go and boil some water for you. It's better to drink some hot water in this weather. Take a seat, take a seat." Auntie Wang smiled as she hurriedly ran to the kitchen.

Watching Auntie Wang leave, Jiang Ruolan didn't have much of an expression on her face. She just looked at Jiang Guanyu, who was sitting on the sofa.

"I specially chose a time when Bingqing and her mother weren't home to meet with you. Regardless if it was because I was busy in the past that I didn't give you care or not, this is still your home. After all, your marriage with Zihao is beyond my expectations. I didn't believe it when Bingqing said this two months ago, so I called Old Man Xian to ask for the confirmation." Jiang Guanyu frowned. "I never would have thought it was true."

Jiang Ruolan remained expressionless as she listened to his mutterings. When Auntie Wang came out with the water in her hand, she heard the door open behind her.

"Dad, Mom and I went to buy... Jiang Ruolan?!" Jiang Bingqing's voice went from happy to surprised as she quickly walked around her. When she saw that it was really her, she immediately looked at Jiang Guanyu with disbelief and then looked at Jiang Ruolan's expressionless face. "How can it be you? What are you doing at my house?!"
