Sure enough, Jiang Guanyu's face remained stiff. Zhan Lian frowned, and after long hesitation, she forced a smile and said,

"Could it be that Senior Zhou is joking? Maybe Zhou Qingling has lied to you. It's impossible that she is your daughter.

"

Senior Zhou immediately glanced at Zhan Lian with a cold expression.

"Lying?

"

Seeing Senior Zhou's expression showed that he had gotten a general idea of what happened that year, Zhan Lian shut her mouth and quietly tugged on Jiang Guanyu's sleeve, hinting him to say something.

Jiang Guanyu glanced at Senior Zhou, then Jiang Ruolan.

"How does Senior Zhou know Ruolan is your granddaughter? However, if that is the case, it seems that I will have to change my mind about you, Senior Zhou!

"

"Eh? Change what? I've already checked Ruolan's DNA, and I've also got Xiaoling's picture. She looks really similar to Xiaoling when she (Zhou Qingling) was young. How can you, as her father can't tell?

" Senior Zhou laughed coldly.

"As for changing her surname, I don't think it's worth it. After all, my daughter had the misfortune due to having a relationship with you, Jiang Guanyu! Even if you change your mind, I am afraid that your wife will not do the same!

"

Jiang Guanyu's face was immediately tense as he turned to look at Zhan Lian, who had a straight face and remained silent.

The current situation clearly offended Senior Zhou. At first, they wanted to ask his help regarding Jiang Bingqing's problem, but now, they both couldn't even protect themselves.

Although Zhan Lian didn't say anything, she would look at Jiang Ruolan from time to time. As if she didn't expect Zhou Qingling was Senior Zhou's daughter.

Jiang Ruolan suddenly looked up.

"What expression did Auntie Lian have? Did you secretly hate yourself for not killing me back then and letting Senior Zhou find his granddaughter? You were afraid your actions would be exposed, so that's why you can't raise your head now or are you blaming my mom for not bringing me down when she jumped?

"

At the same time, Senior Zhou was drinking something, but hearing Jiang Ruolan's words, the cup in his hand was slammed on the table. Senior Zhou looked at Zhan Lian indifferently,

"It seemed that the past few years Ruolan lived in the Jiang Family, her life was never very good.

"

Zhan Lian's hand that was holding the cup stiffened. She looked at Senior Zhou in surprise, then smiled.

"What are you talking about? Senior Zhou, it was like what I said before, Ruolan was young back then, so she didn't understand. She was too naughty, and as her elder, I had to hit her a few times. It was just a lesson. If I really didn't hit her hard, Ruolan probably wouldn't be like she is now. After all, I'm not her biological mother, so she's against me.

"

"Is that so? Then why was Jiang Bingqing locked up? How did Wei Donghai, an unknown nobody, offend the Xian Family until it comes to the point where he was sentenced with the death penalty?

" Senior Zhou's eyes still had a hint of a smile, but it was a bit cold.

"This …

" Zhan Lian wasn't sure how much Senior Zhou knew. Suddenly, she didn't know how to explain, and her eyes darkened.

At this moment, Jiang Guanyu opened his mouth,

"Zhan Lian is only a woman after all. If Senior Zhou wants to blame someone, just blame it on me. Regarding Qingling, I …

"

"Ah!

" Suddenly, the cup in Zhan Lian's hand fell. The hot water in the cup splashed onto the back of her hand, interrupting Jiang Guanyu's words.

Zhan Lian secretly glared at Senior Zhou. Senior Zhou couldn't see her face that was covered by Jiang Guanyu's body. Jiang Guanyu immediately frowned and casually took the napkin and handed it to her.

Although Senior Zhou couldn't see it, Jiang Ruolan and Xian Zihao could see it clearly.

Xian Zihao pursed his lips faintly and said,

"Uncle, perhaps from my mother's point of view, there are some things I shouldn't say. With Ruolan's personality, she doesn't care about it, but since I've seen you two here today, I think I should also express my attitude towards both of you.

"

Upon hearing Xian Zihao's voice, Zhan Lian endured the pain in her hand and hurriedly looked at him. It seemed that regardless of what kind of situation they were facing, the thing they were most worried about was still the fate of Jiang Bingqing.

Jiang Guanyu couldn't help but look at Xian Zihao.

Look at how deep this family of three's relationship was. They were both daughters, yet he, Jiang Guanyu, was only concerned about Jiang Bingqing like he did when they were young, ignoring Jiang Ruolan and treated her like a little maid.

And now...It was still the same.

Since that was the case, what else could Jiang Ruolan say to the people from the Jiang Family?

"Firstly, because Ruolan was alone and helpless when she was seventeen, and because Qin Gengxin was sent to the United States by his parents who didn't want to cause trouble, Yijun was forcibly suppressed by you and kept this a secret for years. Uncle, you may not know about it before, but now you know it, your attitude is the same as Aunt Lian's.

"

"Although we are related by blood, Ruolan is now my wife, and I have the right to sue you for what happened between that year and a few months ago, but I do not.

"

Xian Zihao's eyes were calm and indifferent, as he looked at Zhan Lian, whose face was slightly gray.

"Bingqing is currently under the law. Her punishment will be carried out in accordance with the rules of law. Whether light or heavy depends on how much sin she had committed. You told me that when the incident seven years ago happened, Bingqing was still young and didn't know what was good or not, then how about what had happened a few months ago? She put three million yuan into Wei Donghai's account. The contents of the account and the order she gave to Wei Donghai had confirmed the crime. At the time of the incident, Ruolan was pregnant, so the crime was more serious. I think you both know the law very well.'

As he said this, Xian Zihao gave Jiang Ruolan some dishes and put them into her bowl. He smiled gently at her, indicating that she didn't need to listen to what he had to say.

Jiang Ruolan looked at him quietly and then looked at Senior Zhou, who was listening to his words silently. Senior Zhou didn't say anything and just took the chopsticks and lowered his head to eat silently.

"Also.

"

Seeing Jiang Ruolan silently eating her food, Xian Zihao shifted his gaze back to Zhan Lian and said,

"Aunt Lian, you said that I was heartless, but have you ever thought whether Bingqing had the slightest bit of sympathy for me? Has she ever thought about what will happen to me if something happens to my wife and my child?

"
