Chapter 516: Blasphemy
Seeing that the two elders were about to quarrel, Jing Chen looked at Su Jing and Su Wan helplessly, only to see the siblings snickering at the side.
Su Jing pulled Jing Chen over and whispered a few words into his ear. Then, he said to Su Ye and Zhang Qing, “Alright, Dad, Mom, Brother-in-law is still here. Be careful.”
Su Ye and Zhang Qing were not as respectful as traditional couples. They had been bickering since they were young, but they had never really taken those words to heart. The two of them were still loving, making many couples extremely envious.
The first time Su Wan saw the two of them bickering, she had the same reaction as Jing Chen. Later on, she gradually got used to this mode of interaction. At least life was not too boring.
Hearing Su Jing’s words, Jing Chen gradually relaxed. Sure enough, Su Ye and Zhang Qing stopped bickering very quickly. Zhang Qing pulled Su Wan back to talk, and Su Ye kept looking at Zhang Qing gently.
Jing Chen’s heart gradually calmed down. He wondered if he and Su Wan would still love each other like Su Wan’s parents when they got old in the future.
…
“Kneel!”
In the Kang Residence, Old Madam Kang kept poking the ground with her walking stick. She frowned tightly, and even the wrinkles on her face showed her anger.
Father Kang and Mother Kang stood at the side with serious expressions.
Although her heart ached for her son, he had gone overboard. In the face of the overall interests of the family, he still had to be punished.
Kang Xu’s face darkened. He knew that he was in the wrong and knelt down without hesitation.
Jiang Xin still stood there without moving. Kang Xu pulled her and gestured for her to kneel, but no matter how hard he pulled, she did not move.
Old Madam Kang’s sharp gaze swept across Jiang Xin and she knocked the ground a few times with her walking stick. “Kneel down too!”
She was as disappointed in Jiang Xin as she had been hopeful in the past!
Only Jiang Tian and Jiang Xin were left in the entire Jiang Corporation. Four years ago, before Jiang Tian died, he arranged this marriage with the Kang family. They were considered compatible. At that time, Jiang Xin was obedient and the family was harmonious. She also managed the Jiang Corporation well. They were really satisfied with Kang Xu’s wife.
She did not expect that after only four years, this woman would reveal her true colors. She actually used some despicable methods in private and even took a life!
How could Old Madam Kang not be angry?!
This was simply blasphemy to the Kang family’s good family traditions!
She was also disappointed in Kang Xu. He actually wanted to help the evildoer in public!
Jiang Xin didn’t listen. She stood upright and remained silent. She had never knelt to anyone since she was young. Why did she have to kneel when it came to Old Madam Kang?
“Why? You’re still the daughter-in-law of the Kang family. Are you going to disobey me?” Old Madam Kang sneered, her voice filled with authority.
Kang Xu was afraid that Jiang Xin would make Grandma even angrier, so he quickly pulled Jiang Xin back and persuaded her in a low voice, “Xinxin, kneel down quickly. Otherwise, Grandma will be even angrier.”
“I’m not kneeling!” Jiang Xin was very stubborn. She shook off Kang Xu’s hand and took a few steps to the other side. She looked straight into Old Madam Kang’s eyes. “Even when my grandfather was around, he never asked me to kneel. What right do you have to make me kneel?”
When Kang Xu heard this, he lowered his head and was too ashamed to look at Old Madam Kang and his parents.
Originally, as long as they knelt down and submitted to Old Madam Kang, Grandma might be able to help them tide over this crisis. However, Jiang Xin’s attitude would only make things more and more complicated.
Old Madam Kang was so angry that she laughed. She held her walking stick with trembling hands and sneered. “Good, very good. Jiang Xin, go clean up your own mess! My Kang family can’t afford to provide for a big shot like you!”
Old Madam Kang was extremely disappointed in Jiang Xin. Looking at her arrogant attitude now, it dispelled the good impression in her heart.
When Jiang Xin heard this, she didn’t think much of it. She didn’t have a good impression of the Kang family either. Although there were rumors about how good the Kang family was, only those who really lived inside knew how unbearable the Kang family was.
For example, although the Kang parents were open-minded, Old Madam Kang was in charge of the family, while Old Madam Kang was a little old-fashioned.
When Kang Xu heard Old Madam Kang’s words, he looked up in shock and pleaded for Jiang Xin, “Grandma, Xinxin didn’t do it on purpose. Please help her on account that she’s still insensible!”
