"two."
Careless and clear enunciation.
Tang Wanru and Jiang Xianrou finally began to get nervous. They felt a little uneasy and not sure what Qiao Nian was going to do.
After all, Qiao Nian said she could only count to three.
You must never set limits for human beings. If you don't set a time, few people will have a sense of urgency. But once you set an alarm for something, the oppressive feeling of time running out can drive a normal person crazy.
"I said, I'll only count to three." After all, she was from the Jiang family. For the sake of Jiang Li and Old Master Jiang, she kindly reminded him, "You'd better think about it quickly. Time waits for no one."
"I am your elder, Qiao Nian, this is your upbringing!"
Tang Wanru had never suffered such humiliation before. All the blood in her body rushed to her head and her face turned the color of liver. She was obviously panicking, but she still had to pretend to be unyielding in front of others.
His mouth was harder than a rock: "I just don't believe it. What can you do to me if I don't apologize?"
Qiao Nian smiled and said the same thing: "It's okay, you can try."
Tang Wanru: “…”
Qiao Nian was not like this. She was not that uneasy. The calmer Qiao Nian showed, the more clearly she could feel that the other party was not threatening her out of momentary impulse.
But what can Qiao Nian do
She thought of the phone that Qiao Nian had just shown her, and the background of the light-chasing account, and her heart went cold, but she was not scared to the extreme.
She has not lived in Beijing for so many years in vain. Compared with ordinary people, she is calmer and more composed when encountering things.
For example, in this matter she is very clear about the pros and cons!
If Qiao Nianruo publicly slapped Xianrou in the face on Weibo, regardless of anything else, this damn girl would always have to consider Jiang Li's face and thoughts.
After all, Jiang Li even posted a Weibo post to clarify things for her and admitted his mistake to Xianrou.
Since this damn girl cares so much about her father, there is no reason why she has no feelings for Jiang Li...
As she thought about this, she calmed down a little and her eyes narrowed: "I said, I won't..." She hadn't finished saying the word "apology".
Mr. Jiang spoke first: "Wanru, apologize."
"Dad?" Tang Wanru looked at the old man sitting in the wheelchair in disbelief, and could hardly believe her ears.
Mr. Jiang seldom takes care of household affairs, and rarely interferes with the lives of the younger generation. Since she got married, she has rarely been bothered by the relationships with the elders, and is much happier than many women who marry into wealthy families.
Mr. Jiang has always been easy to talk to and considerate of his juniors. He gives his daughter-in-law enough face in public and has never scolded her in the past 20 years.
Even when she quarreled with Jiang Zongnan sometimes, the old man would always stand on her side and let Jiang Zongnan admit his mistake to her first.
This time... How could I ask her to apologize
Tang Wanru looked at the way her cousin's aunt and others looked at her and she almost fainted from anger.
"You won't forget what you said yourself, will you? Nian Nian is right. She didn't ask you, an elder, to apologize to her, a younger one. Instead, she asked you to apologize to your eldest brother. This request is not excessive. Since you said it, then apologize."
Mr. Jiang had a calm expression, and his cloudy eyes revealed wise wisdom about life.
"You don't think that your eldest brother doesn't deserve your apology just because he hasn't taken care of the family for all these years and is just a poor teacher, do you?"
It's quite embarrassing to say this out loud.
