When Lin Lin heard this, a tinge of fear washed over her. She quickly responded, “Dad, 1 apologize. I’m just concerned about Jun’s future. I didn’t mean any harm.”

“If your concern is genuine, you shouldn’t have continually tested my patience,” Old Master Jiang replied.

In essence, both Lin Lin and Jiang Jun needed to learn a lesson.

Though unhappy, Lin Lin didn’t dare to persist in her arrogance. She said, “Dad, I’m sorry. I’ve realized my mistake. Please don’t be angry.”

Old Master Jiang couldn’t be bothered to argue any further. He stated, “There won’t be a next time.”

Lin Lin nodded immediately, relieved that the ordeal was over. The old man had frightened her so much that she thought she might have a heart attack.

Old Master Jiang cast a cold gaze at Jiang Jun and ordered, “Go back to the company, pack your things, and hand over your work to Chi Chuan.”

Instinctively clenching his fists, Jiang Jun felt that Old Master Jiang left him no room to maneuver.

After contemplating for a moment, he asked, “Grandpa, how capable is Chi Chuan? Do you think he’s qualified to replace me?”

“Do I require your permission to choose someone to take over?” Old Master Jiang responded.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Jiang Jun replied, “Okay, Grandpa. I’ll head to the company now.”

“Yes, Chi Chuan is already waiting at the company,” Old Master Jiang confirmed.

Jiang Jun turned around and left. Old Master Jiang continued, “Alright, there’s nothing else. If you have matters to attend to, go and handle them.”

Jiang Sheng interjected, “Dad, I’m returning to my unit. If you need anything, please give me a call.”

Old Master Jiang nodded, then looked at Jiang Hua and Lin Lin. He instructed, “You two should attend to your own responsibilities.”

“Dad, I want to speak with Ling’er alone,” Jiang Hua hesitated before expressing his request.

Old Master Jiang shifted his gaze to Jiang Ling’er.

“Sure,” Jiang Ling’er agreed.

“Lin Lin, you go ahead. I need to have a conversation with Ling’er,” Jiang Hua nodded.

Lin Lin rolled her eyes. “Actually, I have something to discuss with Ling’er too. Let’s go together.”

Jiang Ling’er scoffed. “Dad, if you have something to say, let’s talk in the study. As for Madam Lin Lin, do as you please. 1 don’t have time to listen to your nonsense.”

Angered, Lin Lin widened her eyes and retorted, “I’m your mother. Didn’t your parents teach you any better?!”

“Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that question?” Jiang Ling’er countered.

Furious, Lin Lin pointed at Jiang Ling’er and began to speak, but Jiang Ling’er ignored her and turned to walk toward the study.

Jiang Hua glanced at Lin Lin and said, “You go ahead.”

Even more enraged, Lin Lin pushed Jiang Hua away and hurriedly stood in front of Jiang Ling’er. She stopped her and shouted, “Jiang Ling’er, what’s with your attitude? I’m your mother!”

Observing Lin Lin’s anger, a cold gleam flickered in Jiang Ling’er’s eyes. She replied, “Are you worthy?”

Startled by Jiang Ling’er’s gaze, Lin Lin stammered, “1 gave birth to you after ten months, and you dare to defy me?”

“How unfortunate, isn’t it?” Jiang Ling’er disdainfully remarked. “I feel the same way.”

Anger consumed Lin Lin, ready to unleash her fury.

Jiang Hua frowned and interjected, “Ling’er…”

“What?” Jiang Ling’er asked.

Jiang Hua looked at Jiang Ling’er’s arrogant expression and swallowed his intended criticism. He said, “Let’s go to the study.”

Jiang Ling’er smiled and walked past Lin Lin toward the study.

Lin Lin expected Jiang Hua to stand up for her, but to her dismay, he did nothing. Frustrated, she cried out, “Jiang Hua, aren’t you going to do something about Jiang Ling’er speaking to me like this?”

Jiang Hua glanced at Lin Lin’s angry face and instructed, “You go back first.”

With those words, Jiang Hua also bypassed Lin Lin and headed toward the study.

Lin Lin’s eyes welled up with tears, feeling a deep sense of injustice. Jiang Hua had never treated her so coldly before. Ever since the incident involving Jiang Ling’er at school, Jiang Hua seemed like a changed person, no longer as gentle as before.

With a resentful gaze, Lin Lin looked at Old Master Jiang, who was casually sipping tea not far away. In the past, he had always looked down on her, but now he had gone too far.

Taking a deep breath, wiping her tears, and composing herself, Lin Lin approached Old Master Jiang with a forced smile. She said, “Dad, 1’11 go back now.”

“Alright, go ahead,” Old Master Jiang nodded.

Jiang Ling’er and Jiang Hua entered the study, both remaining silent for a while. The atmosphere in the study was so quiet that it felt stiflingly oppressive..
