Chapter 2260
2260 I’ll Say It Again, Call Qiao Nian Right Now
She had just gotten up and had yet to pick up the cell phone on the table when Ye Wangchuan’s phone rang.
He stood up first, picked up his phone, and said to everyone at the table, “Sorry, I have to take this call.”
Then, not going far, he picked up the call in a corner of the private room.
In less than a minute.
His expression darkened as he put down his phone and walked towards Qiao Nian. He said in a low voice, “Something happened. Jiang Xianrou kidnapped Old Master Jiang.”
“What?!” Jiang Zongnan lost his composure and knocked over the cup of water as he stood up.
Jiang Yao was also shocked.
Jiang Li cursed and picked up his jacket. “I’ll go find her.”
Qiao Nian was calmer. She looked up with an expressionless face, but her dark eyes were extremely surly. “Heh, I think the person she wants to meet is me.”
Seeing her reaction, Ye Wangchuan knew that Jiang Xianrou had courted death this time. He made arrangements without hesitation. “I’ll tell Gu San to get the car.”
“Mm.”
Qiao Nian responded. Then, she walked out to make a call.
…
In the sanatorium in Beijing.
Old Master Jiang looked extremely happy in his Chinese suit. However, at this moment, he closed his eyes slightly, as if he did not want to speak. His expression also showed a little disappointment.
At the same time, the staff of the sanatorium surrounded Jiang Xianrou, trying their best to comfort the girl who was on the verge of collapse.
“Miss Jiang, don’t be like this. Let’s talk things out. Put down the knife first.”
“Old Master Jiang is not in good health. You’ll scare him like this.”
“Miss Jiang…”
Jiang Xianrou was in an extremely bad mood. She had been hiding for the entire day, making her highly tense. At this moment, her eyes were red as she waved the knife and shouted at the top of her lungs, “Don’t come!”
Jiang Weishang’s attending doctor was afraid that she would accidentally hurt the old man, so he could only ask everyone to retreat for fear of harming the elderly. He advised her softly, “Miss Jiang, calm down. You can tell me if you have any requests. As long as you don’t hurt Old Master Jiang.”
Jiang Xianrou gripped the knife tightly. Her eyes were sinister as she screamed, “I want to see Qiao Nian. Call her.”
At this moment, the old man suddenly opened his eyes and called out to the nurse who was about to make a call, “You’re not allowed to call her!”
Jiang Xianrou seemed to be in disbelief. She bit her pale lips tightly and stared at Old Master Jiang with her red eyes. She could not hide her anger and disappointment. “Grandpa!”
“If you want to do anything, come at me. I’m already old and should have left long ago. Don’t think about threatening Nian Nian through me.” Old Master Jiang’s hair was white, but his voice was loud and powerful. He said firmly, “It’s also my fault that you were raised like this. If you’re indignant, you can look for me. I’ll accept it.”
Jiang Xianrou was shocked and angry. Seeing that the nurse was obedient and did not dare to call Qiao Nian, she gritted her teeth and threatened, “Grandpa, I’m already at my wits’ end. If I don’t resist now, I’ll die in prison.
“You’re still defending her even now. She’s your granddaughter, but what about me?! I even followed you since I was young and grew up by your side. What about her? You’ve only acknowledged her for a short period of time, but you only have eyes for her. Is it fair to me?”
Old Master Jiang did not seem to want to answer her question. He closed his eyes tiredly and said, “I’ve already said that if you’re dissatisfied, come at me. I’m already half-buried in the ground. It doesn’t matter if it’s for the next few days. Don’t implicate your sister.”
“At this point, you’re still protecting her even at the expense of your life.” Jiang Xianrou was furious. She glared at the medical staff with red eyes and became agitated again. “I’ll say it again. Call Qiao Nian! Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what I’ll do!”
