Chapter 423: Won’t Be Trapped In This Chaos

Mo Xiyan exited the kitchen with a bowl of black medicine and said in a sweet voice.

It was just right.

He initially resented her for abandoning his grandson four years ago. However, Old Mr. Rong was gradually influenced by her meticulous care and consideration.

Nodding in satisfaction, Old Mr. Rong pointed at the coffee table and said, “Put it on the coffee table. I’ll drink it after it gets a little cooler.”

“Alright,” Mo Xiyan agreed obediently.

Jiang Peihua stood by the side and watched them while suppressing her emotions. In the end, she could not help but say, “Rather than trying your best to please him, why don’t you look for your own problems? Do you think that this rascal will get back together with you? What a joke.”

“Peihua, what do you mean?” Old Mr. Rong asked before Mo Xiyan could even speak.

Seeing that Old Mr. Rong was already displaying his bias towards Mo Xiyan, Jiang Peihua stood up angrily and said, “Father, even if you want to have a great-grandchild, it doesn’t have to be Mo Xiyan, right? Any woman can continue the Rong Family. Besides, that rascal doesn’t love her at all. I advise you not to place too many of your hopes on her.”

Old Mr. Rong flew into a rage and barked, “You’re rebelling! You’re going against my wishes!”

Mo Xiyan hurriedly stepped forward and held onto him. “Grandpa, don’t be angry. Don’t be angry. You can’t be angry. You must stay calm and happy.”

“All of you are angry at me. Why don’t you be angry at me!”

Mo Xiyan bit her lip and glanced at Jiang Peihua. After hesitating for a while, she said, “Auntie, I’m not talking about you. Grandpa is already so old. Why don’t you let him do what he wants? Yan is insensible. Don’t tell me you’re insensible too? At the end of the day, Grandpa is doing this for the sake of the Rong Family’s century-old family business. Even if it’s a little extreme, the starting point is good.”

“Who do you think you are? How dare you try and lecture me!” Jiang Peihua slammed the table angrily.

Mo Xiyan did not expect her to react so violently and subconsciously hid behind Old Mr. Rong. Jiang Peihua tried to teach her a lesson but was stopped by Old Mr. Rong.

“What’s the matter? Rong Yan is no longer around. Does he not care about me anymore?”

Jiang Peihua took a deep breath and sat down slowly. The servants immediately served her a cup of freshly brewed tea. She took a few sips and said, “You should be clear about how I treat you. If it weren’t because of the rascal’s happiness, I wouldn’t have gotten involved in this mess. Even if the rascal is willing to abandon Anning and marry Mo Xiyan, I will never acknowledge her as my daughter-in-law.”

Old Mr. Rong barked angrily, “Preposterous!”

Jiang Peihua took a sip of her tea and said, “Compared to Anning’s honesty, she’s far more scheming and vile!”

Putting down the teacup, Jiang Peihua stood up and turned around to go upstairs. “Father, if you still want the Rong Family to get along well, don’t place your hopes on Mo Xiyan. Women who are too scheming often resort to underhanded means to achieve their goals. By then, the Rong Family will definitely be ruined by her!”

Mo Xiyan’s eyes turned gloomy and she said softly, “Grandpa, I… Ugh… ”

Before she could even finish speaking, she threw up and scurried towards the bathroom to vomit.
