Hearing the man’s cold warning, Old Madam Tang frowned. “You’re the man Beibei married?”
“Yes.”
“Divorce Beibei. Beibei is not suitable for you!” Old Madam Tang ordered.
Jiang Jingchen stared at her coldly and his voice was so cold that it was about to freeze as he said, “1 think we’re doing pretty well.”
“You, look at yourself! What do you look like? You’re a cripple in a wheelchair, and you even have such ugly scars on your face. Although you have some money, you’ll need Beibei to take care of you for the rest of your life. You’ll drag Beibei down for the rest of her life!”
In the old lady’s mind, she was doing this for Tang Beibei’s sake.
Tang Beibei felt bad when she heard her grandmother’s harsh words.
She retorted, “1 won’t divorce him, Grandma. He will recover from his leg injuries. The scars on his face can also be removed through surgery. He treats me very well and his kindness is something I treasure greatly.”
The old lady was furious. She pointed at Jiang Jingchen and shouted, “He’s a cripple. He can’t even take care of himself. How can he treat you well?”
“Don’t think that just because he spends money to buy you clothes and jewelry, you can rely on this man. Beibei, you’re still young and don’t understand the difficulties of the world. Hurry up and divorce him!”
“This has nothing to do with him buying me things. When I was beaten up, he was the only one who cared about me and asked me if it hurt. Grandma, I already said that 1 won’t get a divorce. No matter what you say, 1 won’t!”
Old Madam Tang’s face darkened. “Tang Beibei, are you saying that Grandma did wrong by slapping you?”
“Have you gone stupid from studying? You snatched a crippled and ugly man from your sister. Don’t you feel guilty at all?”
“I already said that I didn’t snatch anyone’s man. Why do you believe them and not me?” Tang Beibei was also very angry and spoke much louder.
“Because I believe what I see. Why don’t you look at yourself? You’re the illegitimate daughter of the Rong family. What right do you have to marry a rich man?”
“You just didn’t know your place and snagged yourself a rich man. How many times have I told you to study hard and behave yourself? But you just don’t listen. Tang Beibei, you’re really making me mad!”
Old Madam Tang was so agitated that she patted her heart when she spoke as if she was in pain.
Tang Beibei bit her lip and realized that it was too difficult to get through to her grandmother.
She had already concluded that she was the kind of discontented person who would do anything for money.
Sigh, this was her most respected grandmother, her blood relative.
At this moment, she felt someone hold her hand tightly. She turned her head and looked at the man beside her in surprise.
His hand was large and warm as he pressed his warm palm against the back of her hand. The heat was not strong, but it went straight to her heart, gradually calming her down.
Jiang Jingchen looked up at the old lady again. “Old Madam, she married me and is my wife for the rest of her life. It doesn’t matter whether you agree to our marriage or not!”
“You! I’m her grandmother. How dare you talk to me like this? You’re so arrogant!” Old Madam Tang scolded with a cold face.
“Do you expect me to coax and flatter you and agree to let my wife divorce me? That’s impossible!”
Old Madam Tang choked and glared at Tang Beibei. “Tang Beibei, if you don’t divorce him, 1’11 sever all ties with you!”
Tang Beibei’s eyes reddened again when she heard her grandmother’s harsh words.
“Grandma, why can’t you trust me just this once?”
“If I trust you, I’ll ruin you. Beibei, Grandma is doing this for your own good. Listen to Grandma’s advice and divorce him. This man can’t give you happiness at all. You should find a healthy man to live with.”
The old lady continued to persuade Tang Beibei, as if everything she said was for Tang Beibei’s good.
Tang Beibei let out a miserable chuckle. Her eyelashes trembled and tears fell.
Her grandmother had sent her to live with the Rong family so that she could have a better life. When she was bullied, she taught her not to have the temper of a young lady, to restrain herself, and to be patient.
Now, she was forcing her to get a divorce just because of someone else’s words.
Jiang Jingchen saw Tang Beibei’s tears and felt a sharp pain in his heart. He reached out to wipe away her tears.
He told the old lady, “Are you even worthy of severing ties with Beibei?”
“Be careful with your words. How can I not be worthy? I’m Tang Beibei’s grandmother. Tang Beibei has my surname!” Old Madam Tang roared.
Jiang Jingchen sneered. “When you sent her to live with the Rong family, you have already broken off relations with her, right?”
“Well…” Old Madam Tang’s expression changed.
She wanted to explain, but she heard the man say again, “Well, it was for her own good. But to my wife, living with the Rong family was hell. When you pushed her into hell, did you still think that you have done something amazing?”
“You claim that it was for her own good, but you never respected her wishes. You are just taking advantage of your seniority and think that you can control her life just because you’re her grandmother.”
“It’s ridiculous because you can’t even manage your own life!”
“You!” Old Madam Tang was so angry that her face turned red. She pointed at Jing Jingchen but couldn’t speak a word.
“I don’t care what you think, but if you want my wife to divorce me, don’t blame me for being rude to you!”
Old Madam Tang was so angry that her entire body shook. She moved her trembling finger and pointed at Tang Beibei as she asked, “Tang Beibei, are you going to let this man bully your grandmother like this?”
Tang Beibei sniffled, held the man’s hand tightly, and replied, “My husband is right. A married daughter is like spilled water. I’m already married to him. I’m his woman. 1 have to listen to him.”
“You, you’re out of your mind, you…”
“Song Zhou, pay the bill. I’ll take my wife to treat her injuries!”
Jiang Jingchen was impatient. He pulled Tang Beibei up and turned his wheelchair to leave.
Old Madam Tang stood up and wanted to chase after them, but she was stopped by Song Zhou.
“Old Madam, enough is enough. My young master has a bad temper. It won’t do you good if you upset him!”
“I’m Tang Beibei’s grandmother. How dare you treat me like this?” The old lady roared.
The corner of Song Zhou’s mouth twitched. “Even if you are the emperor, you can’t be unreasonable. Old Madam, you’ve gone too far to ask the couple to divorce!”
“Also, you don’t even know the truth of this matter. And you are blaming Young Madam. You are just old and confused!”
“Truth, no…”
Song Zhou took a deep breath. He had no patience with this old lady.
“It’s not like the Rongs told you that Young Madam snatched her sister’s man. It’s the Rongs who harmed my Young Madam!”
“Impossible. The Rongs treated Beibei very well. It’s just that Tang Beibei didn’t know her place. Like her mother, she became someone’s mistress and ruined the Tang family reputation!” Old Madam Tang argued stubbornly.
Song Zhou chuckled in his heart. How much did this old lady hate Tang Beibei’s mother to scold her so harshly?
But no matter what, he could not let her separate the young master and young madam.
“I’ll send you back to the nursing home.”
Old Madam Tang shook him off. “I’m not going back. I want to see Tang Beibei and ask her to get a divorce.. After she gets a divorce, I’ll bring her back to the Tang family so she can’t commit any more sins!”
