Chapter 160 - 160 160 Grasping the Pain Point

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Grasping the Pain Point Chapter 160: Chapter 160: Grasping the Pain Point “Chiang Xiao! You dare to insult your elders!” Chiang Baoguo shouted angrily.

He hadn’t spoken, and Chiang Xiao didn’t even look at him, but now that he was so eager to jump out, she really wasn’t going to let him go.

“Uncle, shall we talk about Ding Meifen’s matter?” she said with a cold laugh, glancing at Song Xiyun, “I think…”

“Chiang Xiao!” Chiang Baoguo immediately interrupted her, his eyes full of irritation.

Now was absolutely not the time to let Song Xiyun know about Ding Meifen’s affair! If his wife found out anything and started making trouble, his job would be done for!

He hadn’t expected Chiang Xiao to actually dare use this matter to threaten him!

Did this brat even understand the affairs between men and women?

It seemed that some of the village gossip about her had a grain of truth; otherwise, how could she, a child, see there was something off in his relationship with Ding Meifen?

“Director Ding’s daughter? What about her?” Song Xiyun asked, puzzled.

Ho Laidi glanced at Chiang Baoguo but didn’t take the matter to heart and pointed at Chiang Xiao, about to scold again.

Chiang Baoguo, having a guilty conscience, immediately stopped her, “Mother, it wouldn’t hurt to have Doctor Huang take a look at Second Uncle, then we can all be at ease! Dongdong’s mother, take the child and go home! It’s time to cook dinner, what will Dad eat when he gets back?”

“Baoguo…”

Ho Laidi and Song Xiyun both froze; why did he suddenly change his attitude?

“I’m not going back! I want to eat meat! Mom said Uncle’s house has lots of meat!” Chiang Lidong immediately sat down on the ground, kicking and crying.

Now that she had grasped Chiang Baoguo’s weak point, how could she let go? Chiang Xiao gave a cold laugh; she didn’t even glance at the others, only looking at Chiang Baoguo, “Want to eat meat? I wonder if a certain person’s family feast has any meat…”

“Slap!”

Chiang Baoguo raised his hand and slapped Chiang Lidong across the face.

“Go home! What meat? All you know is eating, just like your mother!” Chiang Baoguo glared at Song Xiyun, “Take Dongdong and go back!”

Chiang Baoguo rarely lost his temper like this, and although Song Xiyun was shocked and angry inside, she was accustomed to giving her man face in front of others. As long as it didn’t involve her bottom line, she usually wouldn’t make a scene with Chiang Baoguo, so she bit her lip and dragged Chiang Lidong home.

“Baoguo, what are you doing?” Ho Laidi really didn’t know why Chiang Baoguo would suddenly take Chiang Xiao’s side. Just as she was about to speak and scold him, Chiang Baoguo was already pulling her outside, “Mother, let’s go back first!”

As soon as they walked out of the courtyard, Chiang Xiao called out loudly, “Uncle, I’ll come get the money for Grandpa’s doctor’s fees and medicine from you tomorrow!” That money, someone from the Old Chiang Family had to pay no matter what!

Chiang Baoguo was just about to step out of the courtyard gate when he heard this and almost tripped.

“That little slut! I’ll see if she dares to come ask for money!” Ho Laidi was so angry she was about to turn back and charge in, but Chiang Baoguo forcefully dragged her away.

“Mother, it’s getting late, let’s hurry and cook. Dad will be home any minute now…”

The Old Chiang Family had come in a towering rage, caused a big commotion, and now that they had left, the house was finally quiet. But the atmosphere remained tense.

Chiang Xiao, expressionless, said, “Grandma, you keep an eye on Grandpa, I’ll go get Doctor Huang.”

Without waiting for Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao to speak, she turned and left the house.

She was afraid if she didn’t go out to calm down now, she would be unable to resist unleashing her anger on her grandparents.

In her previous life, she had already resented her grandparents’ excessive kindness and tolerance towards the Chiang Family, which was why she had been so determined to leave. Subconsciously, she knew they couldn’t protect her and that she had to leave to find a way out.

Even though she had mentally prepared herself after being reborn, knowing that changing them wouldn’t happen overnight, once she faced such a situation and these circumstances, she still found herself burning with rage, struggling to hold back the urge to lash out at them.

But because of their affection for her, her heart felt even more stifled.
