Jiang Yisen elegantly ate from the porcelain plate before him and replied calmly, “It wasn’t me. I didn’t help her at all.”
Jiang’s mother glanced at Jiang Jingcheng.
“I’ve been in the hospital and haven’t had time to check my phone. I’ve been doing surgery for three consecutive days. When I received the message, she had already been away from home for three days.”
Jiang Hemian didn’t even need Jiang’s mother to ask, and he said directly: “Neither have I. The research institute is such a hassle. Who has the time to care about the sister you kicked out?”
Jiang Zhouye, observing the solemn atmosphere at the dinner table, broke the silence.
“Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore. Nan Nan’s return is a good thing. She didn’t have to endure any hardship out there. I even gave her several million in savings, all in her account.”
Jiang’s mother’s face looked unnatural for a moment.
Jiang Yunchuan shouted, “Fourth Brother, all of Nan Nan’s credit cards were frozen by Mom when she was kicked out of the house.”
Jiang Zhouye was stunned.
He assumed Jiang Nanshu wouldn’t have to worry about food even if she was kicked out, so he didn’t pay any attention to her. He had signed with a new company, was busy with his album, and was appearing as a guest on variety shows.
“Woo, so sad! You guys don’t care about me at all.”
Jiang Nanshu forced a smile on her face: “Okay, it’s all in the past. It’s not a big deal. I have food and drink outside. It’s okay.”
Jiang’s mother tightened her grip on her chopsticks and feigned composure: “Then whose house do you live in?”
Jiang Nanshu smiled softly: “Of course, it belongs to Brother Qingyan. He takes care of my food and shelter and even warms my bed at night.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang’s mother’s expression changed.
“You, you’re living together?”
Jiang Nanshu didn’t understand her shock: “Yeah, I’m going to marry him anyway, so what difference does it make if it’s sooner or later?”
“You, you have no shame!”
Jiang’s mother hadn’t expected Jiang Nanshu to be so bold.
How old is she, and already living with a man?
“Why should I be ashamed? I will be twenty after this year. Brother Qingyan and I are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. What’s wrong with me living with him? You all don’t care about me and don’t allow him to help me?”
Jiang Nanshu threw her chopsticks away, splashing some vegetable juice on Jiang’s mother’s face.
She remained unrepentant: “If you don’t welcome me, then forget it. Why bother to ask me to go home so hypocritically?”
“Okay, okay. You tricked me back here and still scolded me. You’re truly worthy of me, Ms. Song. Have you forgotten the oath you swore today? If you treat me badly, you’ll die a miserable death.”
Jiang’s mother wanted to say that she was also forced into it.
She didn’t want Jiang Nanshu to come home of her own accord. Furthermore, she had met Chu Muxi, which made her feel panicked.
Seeing a perfectly good dinner turned into a mess, especially with guests present, Jiang’s father’s face turned green with rage. He slammed his palm down on the table.
“Stop arguing! Do you still want to eat?”
The sound of the palm was deafening, and Jiang’s father’s face turned red with anger.
Jiang’s mother was shocked and looked at him in a daze.
“Oh my, oh my, does that slap hurt your hand, old man? Look at your face, it’s red with pain. It hurts my hand too.”
Jiang’s father: “…”
Damn, it really hurts.
This is a porcelain table.
But he remained calm and maintained his angry expression, so as not to let the pain break his defense.
Everyone at the table silently picked up their chopsticks and ate in silence.
Only then did Jiang’s father breathe a sigh of relief.
Then the sound of an argument could be heard outside.
Butler Qian’s voice rang out, “Mrs. Chu, Miss Chu, you can’t barge in!”
“Oh! Why won’t you listen?”
In just two seconds, Chu Muxi appeared at the door in a disheveled state.
Facing the family dining, her eyes reddened with grievance, “Dad, Mom, brothers, I’m back.”
