1342 The Old Master Wants to Remove Jiang Xianrou from the Family Tree!

Old Master Jiang didn't care how big of a bombshell he dropped.

Everyone had yet to recover from the heavy news of him announcing the heir of the Jiang family. He then threw out the second bomb. "In addition, I hope everyone can bear witness to the second thing."

At this point, he paused slightly and looked up at Jiang Xianrou, who had yet to recover.

There was pain, sadness, and disappointment in his eyes, but no hesitation.

Old Master Jiang retracted his gaze and said solemnly, "Jiang Xianrou has no respect for her elders and doesn't cherish her younger sister. I don't have such a granddaughter. The Jiang family doesn't have such a daughter... I invited everyone here today to let everyone witness it for me. From today onwards, Jiang Xianrou is no longer a member of the Jiang family. I've already decided to cross her name off the family tree!"

"Grandpa?!" Jiang Xianrou never expected Old Master Jiang's anger to burn her. For a moment, her mind went blank, and her face was filled with shock, surprise, and panic.

She finished shouting for help in a panic and then pinched her palm. All the blood in her body froze. She stood where she was and began to tremble.

She originally thought that the Old Master would choose her as the next successor.

She hadn't expected him to name Qiao Nian as the successor, much less remove her name from the family tree.

For a large family, there was no punishment worse than being removed from the family tree. Once a person was removed from the family tree, she would never enjoy the protection and glory that the family brought.

The Jiang family was not considered a top family in Beijing, but they were at least an intermediate family.

The Jiang family couldn't compare to the Ye family, but they were still an existence that many could only dream of compared to some less affluent families.

Over the years, she had enjoyed much of the honor her family brought her.

For her to be able to attend a prestigious school and learn from an authoritative expert in the country, she more or less had the help of her family.

Many of the people around her were only willing to support her and lick her boots because of her family connections...

Once she was removed from the family tree...

Jiang Xianrou couldn't imagine herself falling from the clouds into the abyss. Her shoulders trembled and her pupils shook violently at the thought of falling into the mud. She couldn't believe what Old Master Jiang had said.

Her grandfather had always doted on her.

She had been treated as the treasure of the entire family ever since she was young. She had never failed to get anything she wanted.

Even Jiang Yao, who had always been better than her, could not compare to her in this aspect.

Not to mention Jiang Li, whom everyone had always looked down on. His status in the family was even lower than hers!

Jiang Xianrou couldn't figure out why Old Master Jiang suddenly wanted to remove her from the family tree. Her face was as pale and fragile as paper, and so were her lips. As she stood there, she felt like a clown, welcoming the shocked gazes from all directions...

Yuan Qing was also dumbfounded. "Brother, are you mistaken? Why do you want to remove Xianrou from the family tree? She has done a lot for our family outside. She got into a famous school and studied under Professor Liang. I heard that Xianrou is still preparing for the recruitment assessment of Master Cheng's laboratory. With her strength, it's only a matter of time before she enters the Ninth Branch.

"Is the Ninth Branch a place where ordinary people can enter? Our family will benefit if Xianrou enters the Ninth Branch, right?"
