The Jiang family became very lively recently, and it once again became a topic of discussion in the circle. First, Jiang Tao and Guo Xiuyu were both admitted to the hospital, and then the news spread that the two were going to divorce. Jiang Tao even found a young and beautiful girl outside!

“Jiang Tao is looking for a little girl? Doesn’t it mean that Guo Xiuyu is like a dog that can’t stop eating shit*, so she contacted Yang Hai and was caught by Jiang Tao?”

(*狗改不了吃屎, idiom meaning that bad habits are hard to change)

“What is this? Your news is too outdated, I tell you. A friend from the hospital said that it was Jiang Tao who discovered that he not only wore a green hat, but Guo Xiuyu also took advantage of him to raise the son for others! Don’t you know, Jiang Tao’s beloved youngest son, Jiang Boxue, was not born to him at all!”

“Oh, so that’s what happened? It took ten years for him to find out that his son was not biologically related to him? Whose son is Jiang Boxue? Yang Hai’s?”

“Who knows, I heard that the paternity test was slapped on Guo Xiuyu’s face, no matter who Jiang Boxue’s son is, it’s not Jiang Tao’s anyway. He has been pampering his son for ten years only to find out that he’s not his own. That Jiang Tao didn’t die of anger is already very good.”

“Tsk tsk, this can be regarded as retribution and karma. As his wife was on the deathbed, this Jiang Tao was still having a good time with his mistress outside, and now it’s like this, we can only say that he deserves it!”

“…”

There are no secrets in this circle, and so the scandal of the Jiang family became well known. Even the old lady, who stayed at home most of the time, got wind of it. She first went to Xiao Zheng and asked him what was going on? “Jiang Boxue is really not Jiang Tao’s son?”

Xiao Zheng was at the scene at the beginning, and he knew the matter more clearly than what the rumors portrayed: “Yes, I have seen the paternity test, Jiang Boxue and Jiang Tao are not related by blood, he should be Guo Xiuyu and another man’s child. As for the biological father, Guo Xiuyu didn’t say, we don’t know.”

The old lady sneered: ” Jiang Tao didn’t want Jiang Nian because of Jiang Boxue, and Jiang Nian was bullied because of it. He didn’t offer to help, not to say help, he did not give even a word of greeting. I also suspected that he did it because he had a son, and that he thought that anyway, married daughters are like spilled water. Now he deserves it, it’s self-inflicted evil! ”

Xiao Zheng didn’t have the slightest affection for Jiang Tao, and even if he was Jiang Nian’s father, he would not have the slightest respect for him. It was precisely because Jiang Tao was Jiang Nian’s father that he didn’t kill him, otherwise his situation would be no better than Yang Hai’s, and his reputation would have been ruined a long time ago.

“By the way, grandma, I’ll pick Jiang Nian back for dinner tomorrow.”

“Huh?”

The old lady looked at Xiao Zheng suspiciously, raised her crutch, and hit Xiao Zheng’s leg ruthlessly, “Bastard, what have you done?”

Xiao Zheng hissed, endured the pain, and said firmly, “Grandma, I want to marry Jiang Nian.”

The old lady glared at him, leaning on crutches, then turned around and left. She was very old, so she walked slowly, and her body looked a little shaky. Xiao Zheng quickly followed and supported her: “Grandma, I know you really like Jiang Nian, you also feel sorry for her and hope she can find someone to rely on for the rest of her life. I really like her and won’t do anything to wrong or slight her.”

The old lady sneered: “It seems that you have ignored everything I said before!”

“No.” Xiao Zheng sighed, “I have carefully considered what you said, but even if I understand, I still can’t give up on her, I won’t give up on her.”

The old lady: “Humph!”

Xiao Zheng couldn’t understand what the old lady meant. Although the old lady was brutally honest with him, she was very fond of Jiang Nian. Well, she didn’t show any repulsive expression, and even his previous fear about the old lady dissuading Jiang Nian didn’t happen…

In fact, no matter how the old lady treated him, as long as Jiang Nian was by his side, he was not afraid of anything.

The old lady would not refuse Jiang Nian to come back for dinner, and naturally, she did not refuse Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng accompanied the old lady to lunch then went back to the room to talk to Jiang Nian on the phone, saying that he would pick her up tomorrow. Jiang Nian said, “It’s not that I don’t know the way, I’ll come by myself when the time comes.”

Xiao Zheng: “… “

The meaning of this invitation is different from the previous ones. This is the first time she comes home to eat after she promised to be with him. This is equivalent to… meeting his relatives?

This is a very formal day.

Jiang Nian didn’t think so much. After rejecting Xiao Zheng, she took a beauty bath and fell asleep. She didn’t expect that Xiao Zheng would come over early the next day to escort her, as she thought he was going to attend an economic conference.

When Jiang Nian saw him, she couldn’t help laughing. Xiao Zheng blushed, walked up to Jiang Nian, and said, “I’ll pick you up.”

Jiang Nian pulled on his suit jacket and said, “Did you misunderstand something?”

Xiao Zheng’s pupils shrank, and he stammered nervously, ” Misunderstanding? What did I misunderstand?”

He seemed to be afraid of Jiang Nian regretting her decision. For the past three days, he was all over the moon and had never been so happy. If Jiang Nian regretted…

He stretched out his long arms, hugged Jiang Nian tightly, and rubbed his cheek against the top of her warm hair: “I just wanted to pick you up in person, and I wanted to see you too. I miss you so much.”

Jiang Nian smiled lightly, patted him, and said: “Okay, don’t talk sweetly.”

Xiao Zheng secretly curved the corners of his mouth, he was so smart, he successfully cleared up the “misunderstanding”.

He lowered his eyes and looked closely at Jiang Nian in his arms. She was so beautiful and her eyelashes were so long, like a small fan… Jiang Nian looked up at him: “Huh?”

Xiao Zheng’s eyes were bright, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead. Jiang Nian’s thoughts moved, and she hooked his neck with both her hands. Xiao Zheng’s body froze for a moment, a little nervous and a little expectant, and he bowed his head in obedience, only for his lips to meet hers.

No matter what, she should let this kid know how powerful she is!

Xiao Zheng rolled his eyes fondly, wrapped his arms around Jiang Nian’s waist, turned around and pressed her against the wall. He was tall and straight, and when he pressed Jiang Nian, he almost embedded her whole body in his chest.

And his kiss was no longer like a puppy, licking and touching, but more like a starving wolf, and Jiang Nian was the delicacy he had been thinking about for a long time. Every kiss was filled with strong joy. His kisses were warm and passionate, and he wanted to vent the feelings that he had suppressed for a long time.

Jiang Nian felt that her heart should have been calm, but now… she especially wanted to strip his clothes, after all, his body is very strong, and it feels really good to the touch.

The ten o’clock alarm rang, and Xiao Zheng reluctantly let go of her lips. Seeing her cheeks turn as red as her lips, he squinted and smiled, his stern face completely melting. He pressed his forehead against hers, and the tip of his nose was rubbing against hers. He began to act like a puppy again, as he called her sweetly: “Niannian, I really like you.”

Jiang Nian was still feeling the strong aggression on her lips. She looked at the puppy Xiao Zheng, who was in front of her, and for once became really confused: “You…”

Xiao Zheng happily answered, “Huh?”

Jiang Nian: “…”

Jiang Nian patted him on the shoulder and kissed him on the chin.

Praise him.

This contrast is actually quite good, exciting!



At half-past ten, Xiao Zheng took Jiang Nian back to Xiao’s house. The old lady looked at them from a distance and saw Xiao Zheng coming back while holding Jiang Nian’s hand, and her wrinkled face did not give away any signs of surprise. She instead showed a faint smile, but when Xiao Zheng looked her way, she immediately gave him the stink eye and glared at him.

Xiao Zheng touched his nose, but held Jiang Nian’s hand even tighter: “Let’s go in, don’t be nervous.”

Jiang Nian glanced at Xiao Zheng: “Why would I be nervous?”

Xiao Zheng: “…” No, it’s fine to be nervous.

The old lady called out again: “Niannian, come here.”

Jiang Nian responded, shook Xiao Zheng’s hand off, and trotted over. Xiao Zheng twisted his empty fingers, touched his nose, and followed her steps. Of course, the old lady would not give him any good look, and Jiang Nian didn’t seem to feel any discomfort brought by the change of her identity… Probably Xiao Zheng was the most miserable one, serving and apologizing constantly to grandma, and being stabbed in the back by Jiang Nian at any time. It was a really hard day, but looking at his appearance, he enjoyed it very much.

At this time, he seemed to vaguely understand why the old lady was so rude to him and made things difficult for him.

Perhaps what she cares more about is not the wrong he did, but the fear that he is too young to be able to take on the responsibility as Jiang Nian’s husband. She is also afraid that he will not be able to stand up against the outside world, that he’s not strong enough and will not be able to give Jiang a stable life, she is even more afraid that his frivolous love will cause Jiang Nian’s destruction.

So she tried to accuse and deter him, making him realize more clearly what he would face if he really pursued Jiang Nian.

Xiao Zheng looked at the old lady and suddenly understood her intentions. He felt a little nervous in his heart, and lowered his head to cover up the emotions in his eyes.



Not long after lunch, Jiang Nian suddenly received a call from the hospital. She learned that Jiang Tao had fainted again, and that now he was being rescued, so she should hurry over.

This is the third time Jiang Tao has fainted. Jiang Nian is almost used to it, but this time is a bit special, because Guo Xiuyu asked Shen Lanlan to bring Jiang Boxue to the hospital in order to remind Jiang Tao of the good days of their family of three. She then went to Jiang Tao under the pretext of family affection and said that even if Jiang Boxue was not his own, Jiang Boxue called him father for ten years, and he had also treated him as a son for ten years. Can the relationship of these ten years be faked? This relationship definitely is better than a biological one!

Jiang Tao was originally depressed because Jiang Boxue was not his own son, but now Jiang Boxue stood in front of him and called him father again, crying and shouting. For once, Jiang Tao didn’t rush to beat and scold, but his eyes rolled and he immediately fainted!

What happened after that was best described as “chickens flying and dogs jumping”.

Jiang Nian rushed to the hospital and the doctor told her that Jiang Tao had suffered a stroke and was paralyzed.

Jiang Nian immediately called for a lawyer, she wanted to sue Guo Xiuyu for deliberately hurting her husband by cheating in marriage and intentionally provoking him into a stroke!

On the other side, Jiang Tao was paralyzed, unable to move, his mouth was crooked, he couldn’t even utter a word, he had to be fed to eat, and he had to be helped to go to the toilet… How could he still be in charge of the Jiang family?

As Jiang Tao’s only daughter, Jiang Nian naturally has to share her father’s worries.

Xiao Zheng was a little fortunate at this time. Fortunately, he didn’t destroy the Jiang family, otherwise, Jiang Nian would definitely be angry with him if she got an empty shell with a lot of debts.

During this period, the close relationship between Jiang Nian and Xiao Zheng was not particularly hidden either in front of or behind others. Naturally, there were many rumors about Jiang Nian and Xiao Zheng from the outside world.

“Did you see it? Last time my husband and I went to the restaurant to eat, I saw Jiang Nian and Xiao Zheng also there. I didn’t think much about it, but when we left, I saw them leaving hand in hand!”

“I heard that the reason why Xiao Zheng doesn’t fall in love and rejects so many famous ladies is that he had a crush on his sister-in-law early on!”

“I doubted this matter since a long time ago. Although Jiang Nian is in her thirties, she is beautiful and still looks young. This Xiao Zheng is a gangster with vigor, and there is usually no woman around, can it be okay?”

“Tsk tsk, old lady Xiao said nothing?”

” She and her sisters are playing the long cards, they seem very happy.”

“Actually, I admire Jiang Nian, it’s not easy for a woman to do this, and the jokes before about her being unable to find anyone but a bald old man are a pure bullshit at this moment. ”

“…”

Jiang Nian didn’t care about this, and Xiao Zheng cared even less, but he was worried that those rumors would hurt Jiang Nian. He was small-minded since young, and would always find a way to get revenge on those who ridiculed Jiang Nian. Now that he has power and ability, he will soon make those people suffer. How can he still care about other people’s gossip? In addition, every time he was at the auction, he always grabbed the most beautiful jewelry, which would appear in Jiang Nian’s hands the next day, making everyone else’s face green.

Jiang Nian saw his little actions in her eyes, but she didn’t say anything to him and let him do as he likes.

It was Xiao Zheng who always presented himself as a pure and harmless puppy in front of her, but at some point, he would turn into a wolf again, which made her a little overwhelmed.

This little brat is really a treasure boy, it’s amazing. 

I may stop updating for a while ’cause exams, sigh. Sorry about that.
