Chapter 1293: Disgrace!

Chapter 1293: Chapter 1293: Disgrace!

The old sir walked into the living room, sat down, and assessed the young man in front of him, saying, "You resemble your father a bit, but you look more like your grandfather."

Zhuang Yi smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa Jiang. My grandfather also said Jing Heng looks like you did when you were young."

Old Sir Jiang glanced at Jiang Jingheng in the distance but didn’t respond.

He asked, "How is your grandfather?"

"He’s doing well, though he’s older now and rarely goes out. He misses his old friends like you," Zhuang Yi answered, "However, the one thing he can’t stop worrying about is my sister, his only granddaughter. That’s why he asked me to come to Upper City to visit her. After all, a married daughter can’t always return to her family, but her family will always think of her."

Old Sir Jiang looked at Zhuang Yi’s gentle demeanor, his expression unchanged, as if he didn’t understand the implied meaning in his words.

Zhuang Yi wasn’t afraid if Old Sir Jiang pretended not to understand, he continued on his own accord, "Our Zhuang Family is aware that Nuannuan is in the entertainment industry where there can’t help but be some rumors, but we trust her character and trust the relationship she has with Jing Heng. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have agreed to the marriage between the two families so readily. However, some members of the Jiang Family don’t seem to think this way. They slandered me to my face, saying that Nuannuan and I have an improper relationship. Do they really doubt the integrity of my Zhuang Family’s people that much?"

He paused and said, "I know speaking to you in this manner as a young person is incredibly disrespectful. When I return to Beijing, I will explain today’s events to my grandfather. I won’t utter a word of complaint if he decides to punish me, but Grandpa Jiang, my sister endured a lot since she was young, and our family won’t let her suffer the slightest grievance."

Those words could be considered a threat—whoever makes her suffer, the Zhuang Family will make them cry!

Mu Yan glanced at Zhuang Yi, her eyebrows slightly tightened; it was the first time she had seen him so assertive, especially in front of the Jiang Family Head, two generations above him.

His words today were somewhat impolite, but he knew he shouldn’t speak, yet he still chose to, clearly wanting to intimidate the Jiang Family members on her behalf.

In truth, she didn’t need him to do this; these people were merely clowns.

Old Sir Jiang’s gaze changed, sharp and sinister, showing deep displeasure between his brows.

But Zhuang Yi didn’t retreat a bit, showing no sign of fear.

He knew that if he showed fear now, the Jiang Family members would always disregard Nuannuan.

Qiu Shuyun noticed that Old Sir Jiang was angry, and having a quick wit, she immediately challenged, "Young Master Zhuang, you’re quite rude. Is that the Zhuang Family’s way?"

Zhuang Yi said coldly, "If you had manners, you wouldn’t have slandered me as Nuannuan’s lover earlier."

"You!"

"Shut up!" Old Sir Jiang said coldly.

He looked at Qiu Shuyun icily, "Being so rude in front of guests is an absolute disgrace to the Jiang Family."

Qiu Shuyun’s face turned pale, softly calling out, "Dad!"

Old Sir Jiang said coldly, "I don’t care what little schemes you have ordinarily; as long as I’m in charge of the Jiang Family, if there’s any further violation, then leave the Jiang Family."

These words caused Qiu Shuyun to stagger two steps back in shock, yet she didn’t dare say anything else.

"Today the Jiang Family has important guests; we won’t entertain you any further," Old Sir Jiang said blandly.

The remaining Mrs. Liu and others felt as if they were granted amnesty, quickly saying goodbye.

Zhuang Yi suddenly said, "Grandpa Jiang, they’ve slandered my sister and me like this and just leave; isn’t that unfair?"
