Chapter 984: First-tier Versus First-tier
Thus, whenever she thought of that, Zhong Qianqian straightened her back and sternly rebuked, “So what if you’re the s.h.i.+ Clan’s young miss? Does being the Young Miss of the s.h.i.+ family mean you can disregard the Nangong family just like that? Does the s.h.i.+ family’s Young Miss have the right to come and wreck my wedding? You’re not welcome here. Get out!”
The hint of guilt that rose in Jiang Shuwan grew hostile along with the rise of Zhong Qianqian’s anger. Although it was not enough to make Jiang Shuwan continue acting like a shrew, she still managed to calm herself down.
“Miss s.h.i.+, you’re the daughter of a first-tier wealthy family, and our Qianqian isn’t bad either. The only reason why you can insult our Qianqian so arrogantly is that you’ve always been living in a better environment than our Qianqian. If you were also lost when you were young and separated from your family, you might just fare worse than our Qianqian. So, Miss s.h.i.+, please grant us some verbal mercy. After all, today is our Qianqian’s wedding day.”
“That’s enough, Auntie Jiang. Can you just stop talking?” Huang Yuhan was about to cry.
Although the s.h.i.+ family was ranked last among the Four Dominant Families, the s.h.i.+ family had started to climb the ranks abruptly in the past few years. Even the Nangong family was often at the receiving end of their provocation.
Nangong Ze was the perfect example. After he left the Medic a.s.sociation Hospital temporarily in anger, the Nangong family did not seem to be doing anything to the s.h.i.+ family either.
The current s.h.i.+ family was no longer the same as before.
s.h.i.+ Yalin was totally displeased. As the Young Miss of the s.h.i.+ family, who was also spoiled by a group of men at home, she never expected to be scolded by this country b.u.mpkin.
All of a sudden, she could feel anger flaring. However, a true lady would never be like Zhong Qianqian and Jiang Shuwan even in anger. They would not call others ‘b*tch’ so easily.
s.h.i.+ Yalin had received all sorts of elite education since she was young, thus she could never say such crude things.
However, the s.h.i.+ family was no longer a family that had to act around the Nangong family. Furthermore, she was here today solely to provoke them. Thus, she would jab wherever Zhong Qianqian cared about.
“Tsk tsk, you’re really uncouth. Insults poured out so naturally from your lips. As expected of the country b.u.mpkins from a small town. When I heard that the Nangong family found their granddaughter, I thought she’ll be someone who will act like a princess, but she’s just a pheasant. Speaking of which, Nangong Yu was so haughty back then, and admittedly, she carried herself as royally as a phoenix. How could she have given birth to a pheasant like you? Could it be that you reported wrongly? Did the Nangong family put you through a DNA test?”
Zhong Qianqian, “…”
Jiang Shuwan, “…”
Both of them looked nervous, but they quickly recollected themselves.
Zhong Qianqian sneered. “Do you think that if a child from your family is wandering outside, any Tom, d.i.c.k, and Harry can join your family? I’m sorry to disappoint you, Miss s.h.i.+. I’m the Nangong family’s Young Miss. I’m the real deal!”
“Since you’re the little princess of the Nangong family, why is the Nangong family letting you get married first before accepting you into the family? Based on my understanding of Grandfather Nangong and the other Nangong uncles, they care too much about your mother! Why did they marry you off so easily? Putting aside the fact that they didn’t give you any dowry, just the fact that they chased you out of the house without even acknowledging you as their granddaughter is enough to show what kind of status you have in the Nangong family!”
Although s.h.i.+ Yalin’s words were not vulgar, each and every word pierced straight into Zhong Qianqian’s heart.
It was not just Zhong Qianqian and Jiang Shuwan, but even Huang Yuhan turned pale.
No way…
