ABCFWGR Chapter 73 Can't Eat Soft Rice
"Leave!!!"
Jiang Rou responded to him with just one word.
From this, it could also be seen her disappointment and determination.
Chen Wantai stepped forward angrily, "You...say it again!"
"Even if I say it a hundred times, it's the same, leave!" Jiang Rou raised her eyebrows arrogantly.
She had had enough of being cautious and careful all the time, as if she had found her youthful self again.
Chen Wantai was infuriated, gritting his teeth as he stepped forward, "Jiang Rou, you're too ruthless. For the sake of an outsider, you'd rather abandon your husband and daughter than compromise!"
"Clap!"
Jiang Rou slapped away his hand, "In your eyes, am I not also an outsider? Today, you can pressure me so much for the sake of He Xiumei's few words, tomorrow, if the same situation arises again, will you pressure me again?"
"Even though Chen Er is not related to me by blood, he treats me sincerely like family. Look at yourself!"
Chen Wantai was stunned, never having considered these questions before.
He had long been accustomed to Jiang Rou's passive compliance and had never felt it was inappropriate.
"Chen Er, let's go!"
Jiang Rou glanced at Chen Wantai for the last time, then pushed Gu Chen out of the door, ready to leave together.
It seemed she had truly made up her mind!
This time, Gu Chen didn't resist. Jiang Auntie had come this far, it wasn't easy for her, and he didn't want to discourage her courage, while also giving Chen Wantai a chance to reflect.
"Damn it, the whole family is a bunch of cowards, not even able to control a woman!"
He Xiumei went completely crazy, picking up things around her and throwing them randomly.
"Enough!"
"Haven't you caused enough trouble?"
Old Master Chen's face turned iron blue, the development of the situation greatly exceeded his expectations.
First, his grandson's quality was worrying, then his son who lacked skill, and even his most obedient eldest daughter-in-law had changed her usual behavior.
All these things put together, combined with his agitation, caused him to cough up blood.
"Dad!"
Chen Wantai couldn't care less about chasing after Jiang Rou, panicked, he ran towards his father.
Chen Qianchuan was also greatly frightened and rushed over.
Jiang Rou's body paused, seeming somewhat worried.
"Once you turn back, all previous efforts will be in vain!"
Gu Chen timely reminded.
Jiang Rou was stunned for a moment, then comforted herself, "Yes, I have nothing to do with the Chen family anymore, whether the old master lives or dies has nothing to do with me."
After saying that, she seemed to really not care at all, took a deep breath pretending to be relaxed.
Not far out.
When passing a corner, Chen Yuwei suddenly stood up.
Jiang Rou was startled by her, patting her chest, "Yuwei, you almost scared mommy."
Chen Yuwei glanced at Gu Chen, then hesitated to speak, "Mom, are you really divorcing my dad?"
She thought she hadn't heard anything when she didn't go in.
Turns out she didn't hear anything at all.
Jiang Rou sighed, "Since you heard it, you should also know how your father and grandfather treated me?"
"Divorce wasn't my idea, your father forced me, but you're still mommy's daughter!"
It's too late to say anything now.
Since Chen Wantai brought up the divorce, Jiang Rou had been left feeling disillusioned and disheartened.
Chen Yuwei didn't know what to say.
Then she looked at Gu Chen, "All this because of you, and you don't say a word? Can you bear to see my parents divorce?"
"..."
Gu Chen hadn't had a chance to speak yet.
Jiang Rou spoke up first, "Yuwei, this has nothing to do with Chen, don't blame him."
"Mom, am I really your biological daughter, or is he?" Chen Yuwei was a little angry.
Jiang Rou opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't explain.
There are some things she didn't want to revisit. She let the grievances of the previous generation dissipate with the wind, not wanting to continue them into the next generation.
Moreover, she was afraid that Gu Chen would figure it out and didn't want him to get involved in danger.
Jiang Rou's silence.
Made Chen Yuwei feel frustrated, as if her mother had already made a choice between her and Gu Chen.
"Gu Chen, I hate you. The current situation is all because of you!"
Chen Yuwei pushed Gu Chen away angrily and ran off in fury.
Tears fell like broken pearls, one after another.
Her favorable impression of him, trusting him with cooperation with the Chen family, instantly vanished. She didn't want to see him anymore.
"Yuwei..."
Jiang Rou called out anxiously.
But Chen Yuwei seemed to not hear anything, quickly disappearing from her sight.
"Chen Er, Yuwei is just angry. Don't take her words to heart," Jiang Rou sighed helplessly.
Gu Chen didn't respond, instead saying, "Aunt Jiang, you must be tired. Let me take you back to rest."
"Okay, just find a hotel to stay for the night, and tomorrow I'll go rent a house," Jiang Rou arranged.
"No need to stay in a hotel, I'll take you home," Gu Chen said.
"Home?"
Jiang Rou was taken aback, then suddenly realized, "I'm so silly, you've been outside for so long, you must have rented a house already."
Gu Chen didn't explain further, planning to give her a surprise.
Arriving at the gate.
Jiang Rou took out her phone, ready to call a taxi.
But Gu Chen stopped her again.
"Not taking a taxi? Or is the place you rented close to the old Chen house?" Jiang Rou asked puzzled.
Gu Chen took out the car keys and pressed a button to explain.
"Beep beep" twice, a car not far away lit up.
When Jiang Rou saw the emblem clearly, she couldn't help but be surprised, "Maybach?"
This was a car even Old Master Chen wasn't qualified to enjoy. It wasn't that they couldn't afford it, but their status didn't warrant it. Buying it would only invite ridicule.
She suddenly thought of Gu Chen's relationship with Miss Liu from the Liu family.
Jiang Rou tentatively asked, "Was this lent to you by Miss Liu, or was it assigned to you by the company?"
If it was lent by Miss Liu, then the rumors might be true. The thought of Gu Chen being kept by someone made her feel a bit sad.
So she hoped for the latter.
"Neither."
Seeming to understand her thoughts, Gu Chen explained, "Aunt Jiang, don't believe the rumors. This car doesn't belong to anyone else, it's mine."
"And now, it's yours!"
With that, Gu Chen handed the keys to Jiang Rou and added, "If you're not comfortable driving it, I'll get you another one, of the same class. I have dozens of them."
Claiming he wasn't kept?
Jiang Rou felt the keys burning in her hand. She spoke with a heavy tone, "Chen Er, listen to Aunt Jiang, we don't need these things. Tomorrow, find time to return all these things to Miss Liu."
"A man, a real man, should stand tall and proud, he shouldn't..."
Can't eat soft rice!
"..."
Gu Chen was speechless, unable to explain. He could only say, "You're really overthinking it. Let's go home first, and I'll explain to you when we get there."
Jiang Rou looked at him suspiciously, but could only trust him for now and wait for his explanation.
Not long after the two left.
Suddenly, a convoy stopped at the gate of the Chen house.
The doors opened, and forty or fifty sturdy men got out of the car.
"Zhang, we've confirmed it. The guy surnamed Gu has no family in Lin'an, but his relationship with the Chen family is close. It'll have the same effect to capture them."
