Chapter 2470: Chapter 2472: Turning Hostile and Cutting Ties
Jiang Meng said with a smile, "So you are the Qinghuang Sect, frightened into sending people and money by the Demon of Southern Nation?
How could my husband admit to having any ties with you.
You’ve overthought it.
He is much better than you.
At least, he wouldn’t be as shameless as you!"
"You bitch! What are you saying!"
Huang Erlang erupted in anger, raising his hand to slap her.
However, before his hand could make contact,
it was knocked to the ground by a flying pebble.
"Ah——!"
Huang Erlang screamed miserably.
"Get lost! Even President Jiang isn’t someone you can bully!"
Someone walked over.
It was none other than the Ultimate Fist King.
"Just wait!"
At the sight of the Ultimate Fist King, Huang Erlang and his crew knew they were no match.
Fleeing in fear, they bolted.
At that moment, Leng Yan ran out from inside.
"President Jiang, we truly won the bid!"
Leng Yan knew that Xiao Chen hadn’t helped this time.
So she was still anxious and nervous.
Until she got the winning contract.
Finally, she felt relieved.
"Congratulations, my dear wife!"
At that time, Xiao Chen also walked out from inside.
"Thank you!"
Jiang Meng was overjoyed.
She looked into Xiao Chen’s eyes and asked, "You didn’t help me, did you?"
"No, but I did look over your bid.
It was truly excellent.
The review board unanimously decided to give you a major contract.
A contract worth five million Gemstone Currency."
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"How did you know about these inside details?"
Jiang Meng asked curiously.
"I have plenty of friends!"
Xiao Chen chuckled.
"Well, you’re good at gathering information. By the way, I must go tell the Jiang Family about this news.
I’m tired of them constantly disturbing you and me."
Jiang Meng was eager to leave.
"Alright, go ahead!"
Xiao Chen smiled and nodded.
Jiang Meng and Leng Yan returned to the Jiang Family.
Seeing Jiang Meng come back, everyone in the Jiang Family stood up, visibly tense.
"How did it go? Was it successful?"
Guo Ling asked.
"It was successful. It’s not a project worth one million Gemstone Currency, but five million.
Here are the materials,
and the signing intentions.
Take a look first.
If all goes smoothly, the contract will be signed soon."
Jiang Meng took out all the materials and handed them over to Guo Ling and others.
After flipping through them, everyone was delighted.
Originally hoping for just a project worth one million, it was unexpected to secure one worth two million.
This is truly great.
"Meng, you are truly exceptional, with such outstanding capability.
Why insist on being entangled with that Xiao Chen.
You obviously could have a brighter future."
Guo Ling remarked.
"Grandma, you said before, as long as I obtain a contract over one million Gemstone Currency.
You wouldn’t interfere in matters between Xiao Chen and me.
Also, this project must be supervised by Bailong Group.
This cannot be changed.
You can be responsible for the construction.
But all materials, labor, and so forth must be audited by us."
Jiang Meng stated.
"Haha, Jiang Meng are you joking?
Did I ever utter such words?"
Guo Ling was stunned.
Completely oblivious, as if she had never spoken such words before.
Buzz!
Jiang Meng was directly dumbfounded.
Though she had contemplated this possibility.
But hearing Guo Ling’s words in that moment.
She felt somewhat despondent.
She dearly hoped her relatives weren’t such people.
Especially, since that was her grandmother.
How could this be?
How could she go back on her word?
"Grandma, how could you do this, you clearly promised, are you pretending not to know now?"
Jiang Meng felt heartbroken.
No matter how disappointed she was with this family in the past.
They were, after all, her grandparents.
Her mother’s parents.
"Girl, did you remember wrong?
I truly never mentioned it, let alone promised you.
Though I’m old, I remember these things very clearly."
Guo Ling said casually, without flinching.
Seemingly never having made such statements.
Jiang Qiangguo also said, "I have always been with your grandmother.
If she had said such things, I should remember.
But she truly hasn’t!"
"Exactly, Jiang Meng, during the negotiations, everyone was present, I didn’t hear of it!"
Jiang Weijun added.
"Jiang Meng, are you confused with happiness, I never heard about it either."
Jiang Manling asserted.
"Don’t be like that Jiang Meng, we know you love Xiao Chen, but if Old Madam didn’t say such things, she can’t acknowledge them falsely."
"Exactly, exactly!"
Everyone reached a consensus.
Unfortunately, Pan Miao wasn’t there, nor was Jiang Weifeng.
Otherwise, perhaps someone would speak a few words on her behalf.
Now when discussing these matters, Guo Ling avoided Jiang Weifeng.
Last time Jiang Weitan was caught.
Jiang Weifeng was indeed problematic.
Guo Ling was quite angry about this matter.
Only due to Jiang Weifeng’s significant importance to the Jiang Family, she never exploded.
"Haha!"
Jiang Meng chuckled bitterly.
She truly didn’t care about the project worth five million Gemstone Currency.
She cared about kinship.
During the time with the Jiang Family, she felt this way.
Now, the Jiang Family remained unchanged.
She had lost hope for this kinship.
Although there was a recording.
She was really too tired to bring it out.
Even proving they said it, what could it change?
If they refused to acknowledge, what could she do?
It’s ridiculous!
Truly ridiculous.
Families like this truly lack any kinship.
No wonder Xiao Chen has no fondness for the Jiang Family.
Jiang Meng looked at Guo Ling coldly and said, "Grandma, haha, you dare call yourself a grandmother!
I truly didn’t expect you to be such a person!
Now I understand why my mother refuses to acknowledge you.
Because you are unworthy!"
"Shut up! How dare you speak to Grandma like that, are you looking to die!"
Liu Renxiong shouted angrily.
"Exactly, if you continue to spout nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll hit you!"
Jiang Manling threatened.
"Haha!"
Jiang Meng sneered, "After doing something so shameless, and you won’t let people speak?
Touch your conscience and ask.
Doesn’t it hurt?"
"You deserve a beating!"
Jiang Manling directly rushed forward, attempting to slap Jiang Meng.
In the end, she didn’t even hit Jiang Meng, but instead got slapped away by Jiang Meng.
Jiang Meng appeared weak.
But she was already an expert in the Meridian Opening Phase.
How could Jiang Manling, with Inner Strength Phase cultivation level, compare?
"The one who deserves a beating is you. What makes you think you can lecture me?"
Jiang Meng retorted coldly.
"Jiang Meng, you are out of line!"
Guo Ling scolded sternly, "Considering the credits you’ve brought to the Jiang Family, I won’t hold this against you today.
But there absolutely can’t be a next time!
If there is, don’t blame me for being harsh on you!"
Jiang Qiangguo also said coldly, "Manling is your elder sister, how dare you hit her, you are growing wilder each day.
These bad habits were learned from that scoundrel Xiao Chen, right?"
