A-List Actress: Paper Marriage but Pampering Billionaire

Chapter 827: Chapter 827: Figured It Out!

Liu Xiangqing’s sudden departure plunged the Jiang Family into chaos.

No matter how much Jiang Zhengting and the others called out, she still left.

At such a time, no amount of good words from others can match a single sentence from Jiang Wenhao.

Yet he just watched her leave, with not the slightest intention of stopping her.

Old Sir Jiang wished he could slap Jiang Wenhao, and shouted angrily, ”You come upstairs with me.”

He was the first to get up and headed upstairs.

Jiang Jingheng frowned, stood up intending to say something, but Jiang Wenhao stopped him with a look.

He said to the two people beside him, ”You help me upstairs.”

”Yes, young master.”

The two immediately lifted Jiang Wenhao upstairs.

As soon as he left, Yin Manqing immediately said, ”Do not get involved in that mess inside, isn’t your grandfather annoyed enough already?”

Jiang Jingheng glanced at Yin Manqing with a faint smile, his eyes cold as if infused with ice, ”And who is all this really because of?”

Yin Manqing paused, furrowed her brow, wanted to say something, but mindful of the others present, she restrained herself and looked away.

”Let’s go, we should head home.” Jiang Jingheng said to Mu Yan.

Mu Yan sensed his unusual mood, nodded, and went to the room to grab her bag before leaving the Jiang Family with him.

In the study, the grandfather and grandson were at daggers drawn.

Old Sir Jiang’s face was livid with anger, his words crude, wholly lacking the demeanor of a Family Head.

”How did I force you? Wasn’t your marriage to Xiangqing settled long ago? Did I point a gun at your head to make you fall in love with her?”

”Times have changed, Grandpa. Do you think I can give her happiness in my current state?” Jiang Wenhao asked calmly, looking at Old Sir Jiang with an unperturbed gaze.

Old Sir Jiang was taken aback, as if he saw a sense of desolation in his grandson’s eyes, as if he had lost all hope in life, in everything.

His heart sank with pain, ”It’s not that your illness can’t be cured, besides, the Liu girl isn’t rejecting you.”

”Grandpa might think she’s not suffering, but others will think she is,” Jiang Wenhao said softly, ”I remember after the car accident, her family intended to call off the engagement.”

”The Liu Family has no room to oppose this matter,” Old Sir Jiang said forcefully.

Jiang Wenhao smiled bitterly, ”I know this year you had Jing Heng stage a play, making outsiders think he resented the Liu Family due to family law against Liu Shiyuan, now the Liu Family is restrained by the Jiang Family. For the sake of the family, they naturally won’t oppose Xiangqing marrying me anymore, but I don’t like this outcome.”

Old Sir Jiang looked at his grandson’s frail appearance and felt a deep pity in his heart.

As he grew older, his health also worsened, he had to consider more things for him.

He’s afraid that one day his grandson will leave, without leaving anything behind in this world.

He said with regret, ”I’m still waiting to hold my great-grandson.”

Jiang Wenhao laughed, ”Now that Jing Heng is married, your great-grandson won’t be far away.”

Old Sir Jiang retorted without thinking, ”That’s not the same!”

”There’s nothing different, both he and I are your grandsons!”

”You better not forget, if it weren’t for him, you wouldn’t also have...”

”Grandpa!” Jiang Wenhao’s expression instantly turned serious, shaking his head at Old Sir Jiang, ”Don’t say such things anymore.”

Old Sir Jiang saw his grandson’s determination, feeling stifled he turned his head away.

He said angrily, ”This marriage is not up to you!”

Jiang Wenhao smiled and didn’t argue with his grandfather anymore.

Sooner or later, he’ll come around.
