Chapter 356 - They Were up to No Good Against Me

When Song Chunli asked Song Meiyu, who had just returned from abroad, to go for Jiang Rui, she had never expected that Jiang Rui not only refused to let her in but also kicked her out. Later, Song Meiyu went to the Jiang family clunching her belly, almost crazy. So the family sent someone to teach Jiang Rui a lesson.

“Why did you treat your cousin like this?” Song Chunli rushed in to scold Jiang Rui, “Why can’t Meiyu stay there for a few days? What are you afraid of? Is that woman not allowing it? What gives her that right?”

Chen Chen was accused even though she was innocent. However, she just shrugged her shoulders, pretending to hear nothing, and went on watching TV while eating an apple.

“Grandma, don’t say that. It was not my cousin’s fault!”

“Huh, not your cousin’s fault. Then it was my fault?” Chen Chen gave a glance at Song Meiyu.

Song Meiyu looked evasive but she went on, “It seemed that Chen Chen’s friend stayed here too, so there was no room for me.”

“What kind of friend? How do you fulfill your duty as a wife, bringing in any riff-raffs home?” Song Chunli stared at Chen Chen so angrily, as if she couldn’t even wait to tear her apart.

Chen Chen pointed to Jiang Rui and said, “That riff-raff is his brother.”

“Was he one of the the Ying family?” Song Chunli came to realize it.

Conscious of her mistake, Song Meiyu covered her mouth for little did she know about Jiang Rui’s foster family. The only thing she knew was that their surname was Ying. “Anyway, the foster family had nothing to do with Jiang Rui any longer.”

“So he’s my cousin’s brother!” She laughed innocently and continued, “Then he’s my brother too. I can talk to him to let me move in!”

Jiang Rui stayed silent while Chen Chen cursed him secretly. But a rhythmic sound of footsteps approached. It was a group of five or six soldiers who were wearing uniforms of special policemen, fully equipped, who had walked in.

“Officer, class one received the order. Please give us instructions.”

Jiang Rui pointed at Song Chunli and Song Meiyu then said, “These two women attempted to murder me. Take them to the police office for questioning. If they refuse to cooperate, lock them in the darkroom.”

“What… What do you mean?” Song Chunli was so furious about it that she was trembling. “I’m your grandma, how dare you treat me like this?” she said.

Song Meiyu shouted at the special policemen and said, “What are you going to do? If you dare to touch my grandma’s sister, grandpa Jiang Min won’t spare you.”

Chen Chen thought that the soldiers would be scrupulous. But those people seemed to not hear it at all, and they directly held the arms of the two and left.

“Jiang Rui, you are so ungrateful. You killed my son and now you dare to do this to me. The Jiang family has made a mistake to foster you. You beast…” There was a soldier who was likely Jiang Rui’s superfan and wanted to cover Song Chunli’s mouth.

“Let her go on.” Jiang Rui went on to the front with a sneer. After so many years of restraint, he could finally hold his temper and say without any concern to save her face. “If I’m a beast, then what are you?”

Song Chunli stared at him hatefully and said, “Let them take me away. I just want to see how you explain this to your grandpa!”

Chen Chen asked in a small voice seeing the two women had been taken away, “Isn’t this a little bit improper?”

“Not improper at all.” Jiang Rui shut the door. “I’ve said it before, whoever wants to come into my house is allowed to come in.”

“But she’s your grandma… not some riff-raff,” Chen Chen mumbled.

Jiang Rui took a glance at her and said, “You are going to school tomorrow. Aren’t you going to prepare the lesson?”

“I’m ready for it!”

“Are you sure?” Jiang Rui’s lip corner was cocked. “The students nowadays are very clever. If you lose face and get fired, I will definitely laugh at you.”

Chen Chen got up and headed towards the room, then stepped on his foot deliberately when she passed him by.

Seeing Chen Chen was just like an angry little rabbit, his lip corner rose again and then he walked in the study.

When Chen Chen went back to the room, she was preparing the lesson and somewhat anxiously waited to see how Jiang Rui’s grandpa would act. She stayed in her room until Tuan Zi returned. Until dinner time, Jiang Rui’s phone rang.

At that time, he was cooking noodles in the kitchen. But he hung up the phone without saying many words. Not until they finished half of the meal, Jiang Qianren arrived.

“You just arrested your grandma?” Jiang Qianren asked right after he came in.

Chen Chen was too shocked to ask, “You don’t even know?”

Hearing that, Jiang Qianren’s face went dark immediately. “So you did lock up your grandma?”

Song Chunli began to curse Jiang Rui at home that morning. But Jiang Min ignored her complaint and went straight to the army. However, Jiang Qianren was worried about her, so he comforted Song Chunli for a while and he left home till he saw her calm down.

But when he returned home after duty, the nanny told him Song Chunli and Song Meiyu had yet to return. He reckoned they had surely gone to see Jiang Rui so he called him. But he was only told to go to the special police force to look for them.

“Do you want to drive your grandpa mad? Such a shameful thing would lose the face of the whole family.” Jiang Qianren paced with worries. If Jiang Min knew it, he would be pissed off.

Jiang Qianren pointed at Jiang Rui and said, “Hurry. Go release them before everyone knows it.”

“They intruded into my house with malicious intentions.” Jiang Rui behaved aloofly to show it had nothing to do with him. “Go pick them up by yourself.”

Jiang Qianren was too angry and forced a smile. “How could an old lady do any malicious things to you? You want me to pick them up? If those little bastards listened to me, then I wouldn’t waste a word on you here.”

“Are you full, Tuan Zi? Let’s walk Hei Zi!” Chen Chen didn’t want her daughter to be exposed to their conversation. Tuan Zi nodded her head and went out holding Chen Chen’s hand after they placed the leash on Hei Zi.

Ying Cheng just had another bowl of noodles and said after looking at Jiang Rui and then Jiang Qianren, “Brother, it should almost be enough. They have been locked up for a whole day.”

“I plan to ground them for three days.”

Jiang Qianren thumped the table and said, “She’s your grandma!”

“If she wasn’t, she might have been under a tombstone instead.”

Ying Cheng chuckled and said, “Next time she comes, you won’t do anything and I will throw her out. If mom knows that you were bullied in the Jiang family…” He glanced at Jiang Qianren who had no marriage up to then and might even end up single for the rest of his life.

“Who dares to bully him…?” Jiang Qianren sighed and went on, “Xiao Rui, pick up your grandma. I promise she won’t come at you anymore.”

“It doesn’t matter. If she dares not to become a tombstone, then may she come at me.” Jiang Rui took out his phone.

Jiang Qianren heard him saying they would be released at the gate of the military region so he left with relief. Jiang Rui’s men were very tight-lipped and wouldn’t spread any words without his order. That meant the event had finally reached an end.

However, he forgot that there was a silly woman by the side of Song Chunli.

Ever since Song Chunli married Jiang Min, she had been doted on by everyone. She had never thought that one day she would be questioned by her husband’s subordinates, who clearly knew who she was, but still locked her up in a dark room and didn’t even bring her a glass of water.

“Mom…” Jiang Qianren helped her out of the car. However, Song Chunli looked so weary, having lost her elegance. Yet she was clear that the shameful had better not be spread to the public, so she decided to put up with it till they arrived home.

Song Meiyu felt upset for a whole day. Then she saw Jiang Qianren and those soldiers who gave him a salute, so she began to complain, “Uncle, you must defend us! They have grounded us the whole day. We had no food, no water and we are even not allowed to call others.”

“They don’t hold grandpa Jiang in any regard, and they pay no respect to the Jiang family.”

“Shut up.” Song Chunli was mad enough. Hearing her words just then, she nearly passed out. Song Meiyu was scared by her scolding. So she just wiped her tears embarrassedly and kept silent.

But her screaming had caught the attention of many old people who were strolling in the yard. They gathered in twos and threes and looked at them. Song Chunli couldn’t bear it any longer, and finally fell in a faint.

The next day, words spread in the military region that Song Chunli had been grounded for a day. At the moment Jiang Min had to avoid playing chess with others and had became a total joke in everyone’s eye.

“Shame, shame!” Jiang Min paced at room indignantly. “Why did you go to Xiao Rui? Don’t you know him? You want the least bit of kinship to die out bit by bit?”

Song Chunli sat on the sofa powerlessly. Faced with Jiang Min’s rebuke, she cried, “What kind of kinship? He has never seen me as his grandma. What kind of grandson would lock up his grandma?”

“He never took you for his grandma?” Jiang Min lamented, “Ask yourself, have you taken him for your grandson? Since he came back to the family, you found fault with him all the time until he was forced to move out. What’s worse, you even wanted to interfere in his own private life.”

“Chunli, he’s your grandson! I have put all my feelings for our son on him alone. What about you?” Jiang Min said, getting angrier. “You would look for trouble until he dies?”

Short of breath, Song Chunli opened her eyes widely, dissatisfied. “Letting Meiyu look after him is for his own good. Am I wrong?”

“Mom, Xiao Rui has already married. Don’t you feel it’s wrong to let another woman go to his house?” Jiang Qianren interrupted for he couldn’t hold it anymore.

“What kind of woman did he marry? I won’t agree to it,” Song Chunli screamed stubbornly.

Bang! It was Jiang Min who threw a vase on the floor. “It was Xiao Rui’s freedom to choose whom to marry. Even if he didn’t marry Chen Chen, he would never marry those mean children of your Song family.”

“What do you mean? Do you disdain my family?” Song Chunli rose up and cried hysterically. “You were just a small soldier. Had it not been for our support, you would not have been in such a place, would you? Now you despise us. Where is your conscience?”

“Song Chunli, you know what your family has done. This is the last time I warn you to leave Xiao Rui alone or you go back to your home!”

Chen Chen, with no idea that the Jiang family was plunged into chaos, was sitting anxiously in Jiang Rui’s car.

“We don’t have to go if you’re afraid.”

“Who told you I’m afraid?” Chen Chen retorted.

Jiang Rui cast a glance at her and said, “Get off. I don’t have time to waste on you.”

Chen Chen curled his lip and jumped out of the car, running towards the school.

“Your legs and arms are on the same side!” Jiang Rui shouted only to find that Chen Chen had stumbled and fallen on the floor…

Chen Chen, who had just gone into the school, rose up from the floor, made a face at him to show her contempt and turned around to run away. Seeing her from inside the car until she went into the office building, only then did Jiang Rui start the car.
