Chapter 1430: Chapter 1430: Picking a Fight

Mu Yan also noticed that she’s been feeling fatigued recently, even experiencing dizziness and nausea.

She thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

"Then go tomorrow morning, it’s already getting late," Kong Lizhen suggested,

"Alright." Mu Yan nodded.

Not long after, a call came from the Jiang Family Mansion, asking her to come home, it was the Old Sir’s request.

Mu Yan guessed that the Old Sir had found out about the news online and thought she and Jiang Jingheng were not getting along.

Just this afternoon, the incident of Zhuang Yi going to Shengyuan Group to hit Jiang Jingheng was exposed, and now the outside world is more convinced there’s a marriage crisis between them.

She worried that the Old Sir might get angry, which would be unfavorable for Jiang Jingheng.

By this point, she was already used to her own lack of courage, so she wasn’t as conflicted as before.

Kong Lizhen was worried Mu Yan would be bullied and didn’t want her to go back.

Seeing her resolve, she decided to accompany her.

Mu Yan didn’t refuse; as the Jiang family’s daughter-in-law, her godmother being a guest at the Jiang’s is only appropriate.

As the twilight deepened, a black Maybach drove through the gates of the Jiang Family Mansion.

Mu Yan got out of the car, accompanied by Kong Lizhen. A servant approached upon seeing her, assisting with the gifts Kong Lizhen brought.

Unlike the usual bustling scene, the Jiang Family was especially quiet today, with not a single person in the living room.

She checked the time; it was half-past six. Hadn’t Jiang Jingheng returned yet?

She asked the servant next to her, "Has the Third Young Master returned?"

"Not yet."

Mu Yan nodded, inexplicably relieved.

After just two days of not seeing him, why did she suddenly feel she couldn’t face him?

Did it mean she no longer had confidence?

She turned her head to Kong Lizhen and said, "Godmother, let’s sit over there."

"Okay." Kong Lizhen nodded and followed Mu Yan to the living room.

The servants promptly offered tea and snacks.

Soon after, a servant came from downstairs and said to Mu Yan, "Young Madam, the Old Sir requests your presence."

"Okay!" Mu Yan nodded and turned to Kong Lizhen, saying, "Godmother, you sit here for a while."

"Alright, you go ahead." Kong Lizhen nodded.

The Old Sir of the Jiang Family had weathered many storms and shared a life-and-death bond with the Old Sir of the Zhuang Family, so she believed he wouldn’t make things difficult for Mu Yan.

Mu Yan went upstairs. Kong Lizhen, feeling slightly bored, took a sip of the red tea on the table and subtly observed the Jiang Family Mansion. No doubt, it was a famous wealthy family in Upper City, with each decoration being of immense value.

Of course, this also meant it was difficult to join such a prestigious and affluent family.

If Mu Yan were not a Zhuang Family heiress, would the Jiang family accept her?

So, how much sincerity was there in that marriage?

At this moment, she heard a commotion at the doorway and looked up to see a woman entering aggressively with an angry expression, clearly not someone easy to deal with.

Qiu Shuyun had just returned steaming with rage from her maternal home and immediately saw a woman sitting in the living room, looking somewhat familiar.

At first glance, she thought she was mistaken.

Unable to resist, she looked a few more times, just then realizing she indeed saw the wrong person.

She glanced at the servant beside her and asked, "Who is that person in the living room?"

"She’s the godmother of the Third Young Madam, who returned with her."

Qiu Shuyun’s face instantly turned sour, thinking of her son possibly being harmed by Jiang Jingheng; she wanted nothing more than to eat him alive, and naturally didn’t show his wife’s relative a pleasant face.

She walked forward, arms crossed, head held high, and said with a sarcastic tone, "You’re Mu Yan’s godmother, right? We welcome you as a guest at the Jiang family, but if you’re here to cause trouble, we’re not to be trifled with either. Jing Heng has always been his own person, unteachable and unruly. Now he’s having affairs and talking divorce, fundamentally it’s the Zhuang family’s poor judgment, assuming their daughter married into a wealthy family, who knew it was a trap? All they care about is the Zhuang family’s status."
