Jiang Jin held Song Ning’s hand as she said, “Ah, that’s right. Our Mu family’s Young Madam is the treasure of the family. If anyone dares to bully you, Grandma will be the first to stand up for you. Come, let Grandma introduce you again.”
Subsequently, Jiang Jin looked at Su Tong as she said to Song Ning, “This is Madam Ning. She lives in the same neighborhood as us. When you meet her in the future, you must be courteous to her. Don’t let her say Grandma didn’t teach the younger generation how to behave…” Then, she turned to Su Tong and said, “Madam Ning, this is Mu Chen’s wife, the Young Madam of the Mu family. We didn’t announce the marriage since she’s still a student. After she graduates, we’ll definitely organize a grand wedding for her. After all, I want everyone to see how happy Mu Chen is. When that time comes, Madam Ning and Mr. Ning have to join our celebration…”
At this moment, Jiang Jin’s earlier fierce expression had disappeared; she looked like an amiable old lady again.. “Madam Ning, we have guests in our home today so we can’t entertain you any longer. As an old lady, I’m happy as long as I have my granddaughter-in-law. I’m not very interested in socializing so it’s better for us to have fewer interactions in the future. Moreover, it’ll keep the peace as well, don’t you agree? Ah Jiang, see the guest out…”
Without waiting for Su Tong’s reply, Jiang Jin pulled Song Ning to the dining room after she said, “Let’s go eat. I’m hungry again.”
Su Tong’s face turned red and green. It was a rather fascinating sight to watch. She tried to endure it since there were things she should not say at this time. However, she was afraid she would not have a chance to say them in the future. Therefore, she said, “Old Madam Mu, did you know Ning Xia acted in a movie when she was young? She even delayed her studies because of filming. Her mother brought her along and spent every day with those male directors and actors. Her reputation is in tatters. If it weren’t for that, my husband wouldn’t have divorced her mother.”
Song Ning was infuriated upon hearing Su Tong’s words. Her body trembled as she pointed at Su Tong. “You… How dare you slander me! Shameless! You…” She was so angry that she could complete her sentence.
At this moment, Jiang Jin patted Song Ning’s hand before stepped forward and said with a smile, “Madam Ning, if I hear these slanderous words circulating outside, I’d know you’re the one responsible for them. At that time, don’t blame me for not being polite. Since you dare to slander Song Ning, maybe I should let you have a taste of your own medicine…”
Su Tong was not intimidated by Jiang Jin’s thinly veiled threats. After so many years, she had successfully white-washed her past. Even if someone hired private detectives, they might not be able to find anything useful. She had learned from her mistakes and would not lose sight of the bigger picture like she did when Zhuang Yi schemed against her.
Su Tong maintained her respectful attitude, but her words were no longer polite as she said, “Old Madam Mu, I came with good intentions to expose this girl’s true colors. Be careful that you don’t lose everything because of her. Previously, her father had slapped her because of her indiscretions and chased her out of the house.” Then, she turned to Song Ning and said, “Ning Xia, your father-and-daughter relationship had ended with that slap. Don’t go back on the words you said at that time.”
Song Ning’s body trembled even more violently than before; her anger had reached an unprecedented height.
Upon seeing this, Mu Chen hurriedly called out to Jiahui for help. After that, he said to Mr. Jiang, “Send this crazy woman out!”
Jiang Jin looked at Su Tong who was struggling slightly as Mr. Jiang dragged her out and said, “So this is Madam Ning’s true purpose. Are you afraid your son’s inheritance will lessen if Song Ning returns? Speaking of which, your son is already 15 years old when Ning Zhe has only been divorced for 10 years. I wonder if you were having an affair with Ning Zhe at that time? Or… could it be that your son isn’t Ning Zhe’s flesh and blood? If he isn’t Ning Zhe’s son, what right does he have to inherit the Ning family? If he’s truly Ning Zhe’s son, it means that you’re a homewrecker. In that case, we should raise this issue again and see what people think. I’d like to see how Ning Zhe is going to face his daughter at that time…”
Upon hearing these words, Su Tong who had already reached the entrance trembled. She did not even dare to look back as she hurriedly walked away.
At this moment, Song Ning suddenly covered her mouth as she rushed to the bathroom and began to throw up.
Jiang Jin paced back and forth in front of the bathroom, clearly worried. After a moment, she grabbed Mu Chen’s arm and asked, “Is Song Ning pregnant?”
Mu Chen did not know whether to laugh or cry when he heard his grandmother’s words. After a beat, he said, “Grandma, don’t talk nonsense. It’s a side effect of stress…”
“Side effect? Stress?” Jiang Jin was confused.
Jiahui who was standing at the side sighed before she began to rant, “What’s wrong with that woman? Is there something wrong with her brain? She barged into someone else just to make a ruckus. She even managed to infuriate Song Ning to this extent! If Sister Ran didn’t stop me, I would’ve rushed over and beaten her up until her parents can’t recognize her!”
