Chapter 588 Argument
Over there, Jiang Mubai was taken away by Jiang An and came to a small room. "Why are you here? Didn't you say you had something to tell me?"
"Well, I do have something to tell you, but you have to wait a little longer. The person hasn't arrived yet."
Jiang Mubai wanted to go out early and talk to Cheng Yunchuan. After all, she hadn't seen Cheng Yunchuan since she was taken away by Jiang An. It was not easy for her to meet him at the dance. Jiang Mubai naturally had a lot of things to say to Cheng Yunchuan.
But Jiang An had already brought her to this place, and Jiang Mubai didn’t know how long she had to wait. She just hoped that the person Jiang An mentioned could come soon.
Jiang Mubai was only thinking about Cheng Yunchuan. She was not curious or concerned at all about what Jiang An was talking about or the people he was talking about.
About five minutes later, the door of the room was opened, and Jiang Mubai saw a white-haired old man walking in with a cane. Although Jiang Zhen was using a cane, his feet were still quite nimble.
"Mu Bai, this is the head of our Jiang family. Come over and call me grandpa."
After hearing Jiang An say this, Jiang Mubai understood the other party's identity.
"Hello, Grandpa."
Although Jiang Zhen is old, his eyes are not blurry. Instead, they are particularly bright and sharp. Jiang Zhen was originally very majestic, but after hearing Jiang Mubai call him that, Jiang Zhen's eyes softened all of a sudden.
"So you are Mu Bai! Come, come here and let grandpa take a good look. You do look a bit like An in your eyes and eyebrows, but you were born with all the good looks of your parents. An was not as good-looking as you when he was young."
"Uncle Jiang, why are you talking about this? I'm very happy that Mu Bai has grown up so well."
"Indeed, I heard that you have confirmed your relationship with her? And you even took her to our Jiang family's ancestral tomb to verify it?"
"Yes, I dare not hide these things from you. Mu Bai and I have personally verified that she is indeed a member of our Jiang family."
"Although others may not believe our family's story, we firmly believe it. Since Mu Bai has been personally recognized by the person in the family, I have nothing to say."
"And An, I watched you grow up. I didn't take care of you and Ya Lan back then, and I feel really guilty about it. Now that Mu Bai is back with us, we have to compensate her."
"I know what to do without my uncle telling me. One reason I brought Mu Bai to this dance today is to announce her identity to everyone, and another reason is that I wanted to bring Mu Bai here to show you."
"Well, you still have the heart."
"Mu Bai had already been recognized as an ancestor when I brought him back to the Jiang family's old house. I'm really sorry that I didn't wait for you, Uncle Jiang, to take charge of this matter."
"It's okay. Uncle knows what you're thinking. I know you can't wait any longer because you're afraid of the long night and the many dreams. As long as Mu Bai can return to our Jiang family, why do we still care about these things? I know it's not easy for you to be alone for so many years. Uncle has seen everything about you, and you should also know that Uncle will support you in any decision you make."
"Well, so after you didn't show up, I specially brought Mu Bai to see you today."
From the conversation between Jiang An and Jiang Zhen, Jiang Mubai could also feel that the relationship between the two of them was very good. No wonder no one came out to stop Jiang An when he brought him back to the old house to recognize his ancestors. It turned out that Jiang An had the support of this big boss behind him. Although Jiang Zhen was not present to preside over Jiang Mubai's ceremony, Jiang Mubai believed that he must have informed the family about this matter.
After all, who would believe that Jiang An's daughter, who had died in a car accident many years ago, could still appear in front of everyone's door in such good health? Who would really want Jiang Mubai to return to the Jiang family and share their property?
"Mu Bai, now in front of the boss, you are a member of the Jiang family. Now daddy has something to tell you."
"what do you want to say?"
"Dad wants you to break off your relationship with that man named Cheng Yunchuan and never have any contact with him again."
Hearing Jiang An asking this of her, Jiang Mubai felt incredulous. She couldn't understand why Jiang An said this to her in front of the boss. Jiang An had just been defending herself and Cheng Yunchuan in front of Jiang Jinglan. Jiang Mubai couldn't understand why Jiang An had become a different person in the blink of an eye.
"Dad! Why are you telling me this all of a sudden? Didn't we agree on this before?"
"Cheng Yunchuan can't give you the life you want. When you were bullied by Jiang Jinglan in that corner today, he couldn't even take you away from there. In the end, it was Dad who came to help you out. How can Dad trust you to leave you to him if he says that?"
"How do you know that he can't take me away? If you hadn't shown up, Yunchuan would never have let me be bullied by others. When he saw me and Jiang Jinglan together, he immediately noticed my situation and rushed over to help me out. He was very good at doing this, and he was not afraid of the threats from Jiang Jinglan and his group!"
"Not fearing threats only means he's tough. It doesn't prove anything. Have you ever thought about this: if Jiang Jinglan and that group of people really want to attack Cheng Yunchuan, do you think Cheng Yunchuan has a chance to fight back? If he lets you go back to be with him, you might be implicated by him."
"I am willing to bear these with him, and this matter was originally caused by me. If Jiang Jinglan hadn't brought people to bully me, how would Cheng Yunchuan have found out and saved me? And in the final analysis, this is not our problem. If you really want to take care of it, you might as well take good care of Jiang Jinglan. She is also your niece, your relative, and your Jiang family. If she really does something shameful, it will be your Jiang family who will be embarrassed."
"Mu Bai, how can you talk like that? I will tell my eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law about Jiang Jinglan's matter. We can't control what happens to them in the end, but you are my daughter, so I can still control you."
"I'm an adult now, married and have started a family with someone else. Are you going to control me all the time? You're not doing this to compensate me! You're just trying to control me!"
Jiang Mubai was pissed off by Jiang An, so he spoke without thinking.
Jiang An obviously did not listen to what Jiang Mubai said and stubbornly believed that what he did was truly for Jiang Mubai's good. Even if what he did was misunderstood by Jiang Mubai, Jiang An just hoped that Jiang Mubai would be fine.
Seeing Jiang An and his daughter arguing in front of him, Jiang Zhen, the patriarch, naturally had to step out to ease the relationship. Jiang Zhen had watched Jiang An grow up since he was a child. Although he knew that Jiang Mubai was Jiang An's daughter, in Jiang Zhen's heart he definitely had something to say to help Jiang An.
"Mu Bai, your father finally found you, so just stay by his side and accompany him. You don't know how much he has been worried about you over the years! If he hadn't always believed that you were still alive in this world, you might not be able to return to the Jiang family to recognize your ancestors now."
