"There's a reason why she did that. She has a past with your grandpa. Your grandpa did something wrong to her, so she took revenge on your mom."
"So she is just incompetent and takes her anger out on others." Qiao Nian understood what he had heard. She sat on the side of the bed with a cold look in her eyes. "She can't beat the people who bully her, so she goes to bully the weak. Tsk, she's really capable!"
Ji Lingfeng opened his mouth, but ultimately did not refute her words: "The past events were too complicated, and they also involved the grudges of the previous generation. It's hard for me to say who was right or wrong."
"So what is the grudge?" Qiao Nian lost his patience.
Ji Lingfeng looked at her again and again, and saw that the girl's cold face was obviously filled with impatience. He moved his dry lips and said, "Your grandpa... is a very outstanding person. He is extremely successful in all aspects... You can even say that he is a genius among geniuses who suddenly appeared out of nowhere. No one knows where he was born. We only know that he became famous in the illegal area and the independent continent at the age of 18, and soon became the uncrowned king of the independent continent..."
Ji Lingfeng was completely enveloped in the light from the window, casting a thin layer of glow on his outline as if he were lost in memories.
"He's very strong and powerful, but he's not a good guy."
"?"
Qiao Nian frowned but didn't comment.
Ji Lingfeng smiled and continued, "He has spent his entire life pursuing becoming stronger and reaching a higher level. His strong talent and intelligence make him lack empathy for others."
"At that time, he had already dominated the Independent Continent and became the one who had the final say in the Independent Continent. In order to expand his sphere of influence, he inevitably came across the cake of the Hidden World Family. Your grandfather has always been strong and he fought back and forth with the Hidden World Family for a long time. He was also the first person who could challenge the Hidden World Family and force them into a dead end."
"The Hidden World Family didn't want to continue wasting time like this, so they negotiated a settlement with him privately and agreed to a series of conditions. At the same time, the Hidden World Family proposed a marriage to consolidate the relationship between the two sides."
"He chose your grandmother." Ji Lingfeng sighed when he said this.
Qiao Nian interrupted him expressionlessly: "She is not my grandmother."
Very determined.
There is no room for maneuver.
Ji Lingfeng looked at her: "At that time, your... Nie Qingru had a boyfriend who she had been dating for many years. They had been childhood sweethearts and their relationship was deep enough to the point of discussing marriage. Of course, she did not agree to accept her family's arrangement to marry a stranger, so she went on a hunger strike to protest and insisted on breaking off the engagement."
"The marriage between Independent Continent and Continent M is a foregone conclusion. The Nie family won't allow her to do this, and your grandfather won't allow her to do this either."
"So what did he do?" Qiao Nian thought of the old photo that had been carefully hidden away, and looked up at him with dark pupils.
Ji Lingfeng's mouth twitched, and he said slowly and in a low voice: "He arrested the man and issued an ultimatum to Nie Qingru with the man's safety in mind. In the end, Nie Qingru compromised and put on her wedding dress and got married on the wedding day. The two held their wedding in front of many witnesses."
"There was no love in this wedding. Everyone, including your grandfather, just regarded marriage as a transaction. Afterwards, because this marriage involved the union of two continents, even if the two had no love, they could not choose to divorce. She was imprisoned in the Independent Continent until your grandfather died unexpectedly. She began to look for the man from that year. And that man died in the first year of her marriage..."
