"What happened! You’re still asking me what happened!"
"Dad restricts my spending and has someone follow me all the time. Now I don’t even dare to step out the front door, afraid that if others see me like this, they’d laugh at me."
Hearing this from Chen Meirong, Jiang Zhongguo found it even more strange.
A son knows a bit about his father, no matter what.
Why did Jiang Zhi suddenly act this way?
His father had never been an impulsive person and would never make a decision lightly.
If Jiang Zhi did this, there must be a reason.
Thinking this, Jiang Zhongguo sat down on the sofa and leisurely looked at Chen Meirong.
"Why don’t you tell me what you did to make Dad so angry."
Just a moment ago, Chen Meirong, who was furious and nonstop complaining, froze at these words.
Chen Meirong looked at Jiang Zhongguo in disbelief, "You! What’s wrong with you? You don’t even care about me first? You don’t know what happened and just assume I did something?"
Jiang Zhongguo still looked at Chen Meirong leisurely, "Then you tell me, is it because you did something."
"I..."
Only by looking at Chen Meirong’s hesitant demeanor, Jiang Zhongguo knew he was right.
"Fine, if you want me to handle this, you must tell me everything as it happened. If you don’t want me to handle it, then you don’t have to say anything."
Chen Meirong was fuming at Jiang Zhongguo’s words, but looking at him like this, she knew he wouldn’t change his mind.
After taking a few deep breaths, Chen Meirong told Jiang Zhongguo everything exactly as it happened.
Listening to Chen Meirong, Jiang Zhongguo’s gaze towards her grew colder and colder.
"I knew it. All this time you kept running off mysteriously. I didn’t know it was to plot something like this."
Being stared at by Jiang Zhongguo like this made Chen Meirong feel very uncomfortable.
"You... don’t look at me like that! Who am I doing this for? Isn’t it for our own good? Look at that Jiang Ran, does she have any filial regard?"
"Then why didn’t you tell me beforehand?"
"I wanted to successfully pull it off and then tell you, hoping you’d be happy too."
"If you had told me beforehand, this might really have been successful."
By the time he said the last few words, Jiang Zhongguo’s tone had become a bit harsher.
Looking at Chen Meirong again, Jiang Zhongguo was even more infuriated.
The idea was a good one, and the planning direction was right, just not mature enough, which is why it didn’t succeed.
Not only did it fail, but it caused them to pay a bigger price.
Wait!
"How did Dad find out about this?" Jiang Zhongguo asked Chen Meirong curiously.
He was Chen Meirong’s husband, and she’d kept everything a secret. So how did Jiang Zhi find out?
Based on his knowledge of Jiang Zhi, Jiang Zhi couldn’t have investigated Chen Meirong for no reason.
Someone must have said something to Jiang Zhi first, reported to Jiang Zhi.
Who could that person be?
While Jiang Zhongguo was still pondering, Chen Meirong gritted her teeth and spoke up.
"No need to ask, it must be that wretched girl Jiang Ran! She can’t stand to see me well! She never sees us as her parents, and now she’s tattling. This time, I will definitely settle the score with her!"
