My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

Chapter 755 - Be Reasonable

Chapter 755: Be Reasonable

As Zhong Nuannuan hung up the phone, a low-profile luxurious limited-edition Maybach rolled towards her. Since her identity had been exposed, Zhong Nuannuan felt that there was no need for her to maintain such a low profile anymore. After all, she was from the royal family of Luntan, was she not? She could no longer be bothered to take a taxi back and forth from school.

Seeing Jiang Shuwan running over in a hurry, Zhong Nuannuan retracted her initial plans to walk for a while before getting in the car and turned around to hop into the car immediately.

Grandpa was still waiting for her to go back for lunch. She absolutely refused to waste her time on Jiang Shuwan.

Jiang Shuwan caught sight of Zhong Nuannuan from afar. Initially, Jiang Shuwan was hesitating whether she should enter the school to talk to Zhong Nuannuan or request to talk to Zhong Nuannuan privately.

After all, if Zhong Nuannuan spoke too loudly in school, that would mean everyone would know that Jiang Shuwan’s family was in trouble, would they not? She did not want that to happen.

However, if she asked Zhong Nuannuan to meet her privately, what would happen if Zhong Nuannuan refused to see her and left through the back door? She would have to continue grasping around desperately, would she not?

Jiang Shuwan had had enough of the fear that overwhelmed her since this morning. While she was still in the midst of hesitating, school ended and she saw Zhong Nuannuan walking out.

After all, Zhong Qianqian was no longer in school. Jiang Shuwan would not concern herself with when school holidays would start. Therefore, her eyes lit up when she saw Zhong Nuannuan.

Realizing that Zhong Nuannuan ignored her even though she already noticed her—Zhong Nuannuan was about to get into the car, even—Jiang Shuwan fumed inside. However, this time, she firmly remembered the ‘last words’ from the dead f*cker. She walked over quickly and forcefully inserted herself in Zhong Nuannuan’s path.

In the past, Jiang Shuwan always blew things out of proportion when something bad happened. This time, however, Jiang Shuwan rushed in front of Zhong Nuannuan and whispered, “Nuannuan, Mom has something important to tell you. Come with me.”

Zhong Nuannuan was slightly taken aback by Jiang Shuwan’s sudden change, yet she understood that habits die hard. Therefore, now that her plan for revenge commenced, Zhong Nuannuan had no plans of holding back from embarrassing them.

“Cut the long story short. I don’t think there’s anything left for us to talk about.”

“You...” Anger nearly consumed Jiang Shuwan. However, she understood that she was asking for Zhong Nuannuan’s help and that she could not let any of their maladies known by Zhong Nuannuan at this crucial point in time. Whenever she thought of the luxurious life Zhong Qianqian would have in the future, she felt strong enough to withstand anything.

“Nuannuan, your dad and uncle have been arrested. Quickly think of a way to save your dad and uncle! Mom is just a housewife. There’s really nothing I can do!”

Zhong Nuannuan returned Jiang Shuwan a small smile. “You mean I’m a man?”

Jiang Shuwan was mad. “What do you mean?”

“Didn’t you say a housewife like you can’t do anything? How am I not a housewife, then? Not only am I a housewife, but I’m also a student.”

Jiang Shuwan mentally prepared herself for a long time and convinced herself countless times to be patient when dealing with Zhong Nuannuan. She told herself she must maintain an amicable attitude and not mess things up.

After all, she did not expect Zhong Kuijun and Jiang Hanlin to be arrested as well.

Now, she, Xie Congrong, and her mother were all that was left. Qianqian was currently in Emperor District. She assumed that Gu Mingzhe had not brought Qianqian to seek out the support behind Qianqian. She was scared out of her wits, but she did not dare make any random calls. In the end, she decided to ask Zhong Nuannuan for help to find out more about the situation before talking to Qianqian.

Who would have expected that when Zhong Nuannuan heard that Zhong Kuijun and Jiang Hanlin were arrested, she did not take it seriously at all? Zhong Nuannuan’s indifference shocked Jiang Shuwan.

Jiang Shuwan was stunned for a moment before recovering from her shock. She could not help but shout, “Nuannuan, we’re still your parents! Your dad and uncle are arrested, and we don’t know if they’re dead or alive. The whole family is as anxious as cats on hot bricks and this is the attitude you’re giving me? Do you still treat us like your parents? Why are you so cold-blooded? Are you even human?”

Zhong Nuannuan had already opened the car door and was about to ignore her. However, after hearing what she said, Zhong Nuannuan could not help but contradict her.

“I don’t treat you like my parents. Then, let me ask you a question, have you ever treated me like your daughter?”
