Jiang Li was already turning to leave when he saw that his father was still standing there, motionless. He couldnt help but call out, Dad?

Jiang Zongnan did not respond. He didnt look at anyone. He looked stubbornly at the old man in the wheelchair and said in a low voice, Dad, are you removing Xianrou from the family tree because of Nian Nian?

Old Master Jiang raised his head. He had aged a lot during this period of time. His hair had turned completely white, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were very deep. However, he was calm and peaceful. He only glanced at Jiang Zongnan, who was standing on the spot and refusing to leave. Old Master Jiang said without hiding anything, Yes.

Xianrou didnt partic.i.p.ate in this matter! Jiang Zongnans voice was deep. He clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles turned white.

Old Master Jiang did not react. His expression was still calm. He glanced at Jiang Xianrou, whose face was as pale as paper, then looked away and said tiredly, I know shes not involved, but can you say that she doesnt know anything?

Jiang Zongnans throat was stuck and he couldnt answer immediately.

Old Master Jiangs expression was calm as he continued, You know very well that there are some things that she doesnt need to partic.i.p.ate in. She just needs to give a hint, and someone will do it for her. Can you say that she didnt partic.i.p.ate personally?

Of course not.

Jiang Zongnan tightened his grip, and his face turned ashen.

He knew that Jiang Xianrou couldnt say that she was completely innocent in this matter, but the punishment the old master gave her was too heavy!

Old Master Jiang didnt look at him again. He said calmly, Go back. I wont change my decision easily. Theres no need for you to discuss whos right and whos wrong with me.

Jiang Zongnan raised his head. Emotions surged in his eyes before they finally darkened.

He turned around and left without even saying goodbye to Jiang Zongjin.

Yuan Qing stood up as well with a conflicted expression.

Seeing her conflicted expression, Old Master Jiang raised his hand. Theyve all left. You should leave, too. Im going to rest.

Yuan Qing hesitated for a moment before going along with the flow. Then, Ill leave first.

Yes, Old Master Jiang replied calmly.

Yuan Qing led her family and greeted Old Master Jiang before following Jiang Zongnan and the others away.

The ward was suddenly half empty.

Only Jiang Zongjin and Elder Ye were left.

Jiang Zongjin was at a loss for a moment. He stood there and looked at his father. His elegant face hesitated for a moment before he said, Then, Dad, I wont disturb you anymore. Rest early.

Wait a moment. Old Master Jiang stopped him.

Jiang Zongjin immediately stopped and asked him respectfully, Dad, is there anything else?

Old Master Jiangs temples throbbed upon seeing how serious he was. The back of his head was tense.

Fortunately, his furrowed brows relaxed again when he thought of Qiao Nian. He stopped looking at him and turned to speak to Ye Maoshan and the others. Im not in good health. All these years, the Jiang family has relied on you guys to survive But as you can see, my family has been in a mess ever since I found my granddaughter. The family is no longer united. I dont know how long my body can last.

Dad, dont talk nonsense. You will be healthy and live a long life. Jiang Zongjin interrupted him.

However, Old Master Jiang smiled and didnt care much. Everyone has to die. Ill still leave one day even if I live to be a hundred years old. Im not afraid of death. Ive long wanted to go down and see your mother, but Ive always been worried about Nian Nian. I didnt find her before, and I was afraid that I wouldnt be able to find her until the day I left. But I cant protect her well now that Ive found her.
