Chapter 216: Return to the Jiang Family!

Translator: Lonelytree

When Jiang Tao returned to the Jiang family mansion, the servants greeted him respectfully, “Eldest young master!”

Jiang Tao asked, “Where’s grandfather?”

The servants replied, “He’s fishing in the pond in the backyard!”

“Alright, I got it!” Jiang Tao nodded and went straight to the backyard.

When Jiang Tao’s parents heard that Jiang Tao had returned, they had been waiting in the courtyard.

When they saw him, Mother Jiang was so excited that her tears sparkled. She called out, “Tao ‘Er!” She wanted to go forward, but she was worried about something. She stood there and looked at him.

Jiang Tao didn’t share his parent’s excitement. He greeted them respectfully. “Father, Mother!” It was respectful and aloof. This was not a normal relationship between parents and children. It was more like the relationship between a superior and a subordinate.

Mother Jiang held back her tears and opened her mouth. She wanted to say something, but in the end, the words that came out of her mouth became, “It’s good that you’re back!”

Father Jiang asked, “Tao ‘Er, are you coming back to stay for a few days, or are you going to stay in the capital?”

Jiang Tao said, “I’ll go back after a few days. Father, mother, I’m going to look for grandfather.”

“Tao ‘Er…” Mother Jiang called out. The expression in her eyes was very complicated. She wanted to say more, but she felt she didn’t have the right.

Father Jiang nodded and said, “Go on then!”

After Jiang Tao left, Mother Jiang finally could not control her tears and covered her face as she began to cry.

Father Jiang hugged her shoulders and sighed. “Tao ‘Er is the future heir of the family. He can only follow the path decided by father.”

Mother Jiang couldn’t help but feel sorry for him. “But this sends Tao ‘Er further and further away from us. Why does the old man have to force Tao ‘Er like this?”

Father Jiang was shocked and immediately covered her mouth. “Qingfeng, don’t ever say these things again. Otherwise, we might not even see Tao ‘Er anymore.”

As the son, Father Jiang knew how controlling and domineering his father was. In order to nurture the most outstanding heir, Grandfather Jiang raised his grandson, Jiang Tao, like a machine. He was not allowed to have any weaknesses, especially emotional ties!

Ever since Jiang Tao was born, he was left with Old Master Jiang. Jiang Tao was forbidden from getting close to his parents so as not to form any emotional ties. Father and Mother Jiang could only see their son once a month. They were not allowed to hug or be too close to him.

Therefore, Jiang Tao treated them like strangers.

Father Jiang sighed and said, “Don’t cry anymore. Tao ‘Er is back. He’ll eat at home. Get the kitchen to prepare Tao ‘Er’s favorite food. I’ll call Bin ‘Er and Wen ‘Er. Their eldest brother is home. We should have a meal as a family.”

Mother Jiang nodded silently and went to the kitchen.

Father Jiang gave his second son, Jiang Bin, and his youngest daughter, Jiang Wen, a call and told them to come home for dinner.

In a private room at Golden City Club, there were smoking and drinking. Young men and women lay on the coffee table or the floor. The men gasped, and the women moaned.

Suddenly, someone’s phone rang. It was very abrupt in this space.

“Which bastard forgot to silence his phone?” The man who was ‘working’ asked sharply.

The men and women present looked at each other and eventually found the source of the sound. A high-end black phone was lying on the sofa, and it was still ringing.

Someone took a look and said in a low voice, “Young Master Jiang, it’s your phone.”

When Jiang Bin heard this, he said angrily, “Give me the phone. I want to see which bastard dares to disturb me.”

The person handed the phone to Jiang Bin. In this process, he glanced at the caller Id, and he was so scared he almost dropped the phone. He stammered, “Young Master Jiang, it’s your father!”

“What?” Young Master Jiang jumped up on the spot. Then he quickly picked up the phone and shouted, “Dad, what’s wrong? Okay, I’ll be back soon!”

When he hung up the phone, his face was very ugly. It was dark and gloomy. No one knew what he was thinking with his sharp eyes.

“Young master Jiang, what’s wrong?” After some time, someone swallowed his saliva and asked carefully.

“Nothing. It’s just that my big brother suddenly came back. My dad asked me to go back for dinner!” He said as he put on his clothes.

The people’s expressions changed when they heard that. Someone cried out in surprise. “Eldest Young Master Jiang is back?”

Jiang Bin’s movement paused. His sharp eye turned to the person. He gritted his teeth and said, “That’s right. The actual heir of the Jiang Family is back. Are you scared?”

The others didn’t know how to answer his question, but Jiang Bin didn’t expect them to answer either. He sneered and said, “I sure am scared!”

When he said this, he felt a faint sense of dissatisfaction in his heart.

‘Why is the eldest son treated as the heir while the others are treated like crap? No matter how outstanding we are, we’ll never catch grandfather’s eyes.’ Jiang Bin’s eyes darkened. He took a white jacket, threw it on his shoulder, and left.

As soon as he left, the remaining men and women in the private room had complicated expressions.

“Eldest Young Master Jiang is back!” Suddenly, someone said with some fear, “Can Young Master Jiang still come out to play with us?”

“I don’t think so.” Someone answered.

“Yes.” Someone concurred, “Whenever the Eldest Young Master is back, Young Master Jiang will become very obedient.”

“Eldest Young Master Jiang is very cold. Whenever I’m around him, I feel uncomfortable. I wonder how Young Master Jiang manages to live with him.”

“I heard that the Jiang family and the Qin family are going to have a political marriage.”

“I heard the same thing. It’s between Eldest Young Master Jiang and the Qin family’s eldest daughter, Qin Yan.”

“The two of them are a perfect match. They are of equal status. Qin Yan is the number one socialite in the capital.”

“But, I heard Qin Yan likes Young Master Gong?” Everyone was silent. They respected Eldest Young Master Jiang, but they feared Young Master Gong. To them, Young Master Gong was someone they couldn’t afford to offend.

1

Although he was young, he was steady, experienced, and ruthless! If someone provoked him, he could wipe out a whole family from existence.

He also didn’t have any sympathy for women.

Once, a daughter of a large family in the capital used some tricks to get Young Master Gong. She climbed into bed, stripped naked, and even called the reporters. Her intention was very clear. She wanted everyone to know that Young Master Gong had slept with her. Then, he would have to take responsibility and marry her.

However, the reality was harsh.

The moment Young Master Gong entered the room and found a naked woman on the bed, and he had his bodyguards directly throw her out. The reporters were stunned to see a naked woman in the corridor, but they soon got into action.

The headlines were filled with the woman’s pictures. She stripped naked to try to seduce Young Master Gong, but she was thrown out ruthlessly.

Her family was humiliated. Her family exiled her. They even had to prepare a generous gift and apologize to the Gong family. Her family had lost a lot.

In reality, everyone knew that the girl only dared to do that because she was ordered to do so by her family. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have done something as shameless as this.

There were so many socialites in the capital who liked Young Master Gong, but none of them had the courage to pursue him.

Young Master Gong had no time for fools. Once they upset Young Master Gong, he might destroy not only the woman but also her entire family. Young Master Gong was a fickle person. He might take revenge on the woman if he was in a good mood, but he might level her entire family if he was in a bad mood.

Therefore, the younger generation trembled in fear when they had to face Young Master Gong. If they were not careful, they would face the wrath of this tyrant. They didn’t dare to gossip about him either. However, when they heard Young Miss Qin liked Young Master Gong, they were intrigued.

“Where did you hear that? Is it true?” Ge Tianlian asked, “Why haven’t we heard of it?”

“Yea.” Guan Zhengpeng asked in puzzlement, “Qin Yan likes Young Master Gong, but she is marrying Young Master Jiang? Everyone knows that Young Master Gong and Young Master Jiang are good friends. They are not going to fight for a woman, right?”

Young Master Gong and Young Master Jiang were princelings of the capital.

“I don’t think so.” Ge Tianlian said! Even if Qin Yan likes Young Master Gong, it doesn’t mean that Young Master Gong likes young Miss Qin.”

“That’s true!”The others echoed.

“Besides, with Young Master Gong and Young Master Jiang’s strong friendship, they definitely won’t fall out over women.”

“Yes, that’s true!”

They agreed unanimously! However, they were curious about what would happen next.

…

Jiang Tao came to the back garden. Old Master Jiang was sitting by the pond fishing while Butler Li stood at the side, very quiet.

“Grandfather!” Jiang Tao called out respectfully.

Butler Li called out very respectfully, “Eldest young master!” Then, he glanced at Old Master Jiang who was fishing and said meaningfully, “Eldest young master, Old Master has been waiting for a long time!” He meant that Old Master was angry because Jiang Tao didn’t return home immediately.

Jiang Tao nodded at Butler Li and then said respectfully to the old man, “Grandpa, I’m sorry!”

The old man didn’t answer.

Butler Li secretly sighed and asked, “Eldest young master, why didn’t you inform Uncle Li when you returned to the capital? Uncle Li can go pick you up.”

Jiang Tao said, “Uncle Li, I came back suddenly. I didn’t want to trouble you.”

“Hmph. That’s because you don’t want anyone to disturb your investigation of the political marriage between our family and the Qin Family, right?” Grandpa Jiang snorted coldly and asked directly, “So, what do you think?”

“Grandpa!” Jiang Tao’s pupils suddenly shrank. Then, he took a deep breath and asked directly, “Grandpa, why didn’t you tell me about the marriage between the Jiang and Qin families?”

“Why should I tell you?” Grandpa Jiang said domineeringly.

“Why shouldn’t you tell me?” Jiang Tao frowned and found it unbelievable. He couldn’t help but ask, “As the one getting married, shouldn’t I have the right to know?”

“It doesn’t matter because the ending will never change.” Grandpa Jiang said. At this point, his eyes narrowed and he asked sharply, “Are you questioning grandfather?”

Jiang Tao’s breathing stopped for a moment, and then he said, “Grandfather, I’m not questioning you. I don’t have the right. However, I merely feel that I should know since I’m getting married.”

Grandfather Jiang nodded and said, “Well, now you know. What do you intend to do? When do you want to get engaged?”

“I…” Jiang Tao wanted to say he wanted to reject the marriage, but he didn’t want to raise his grandfather’s suspicion. He said, “Grandfather, but Qin Yan and I are not suitable! We… are just ordinary friends. There is no romantic feeling within us.”

However, grandfather Jiang directly waved his hand and interrupted him. His sharp eyes stared at Jiang Tao and said, “Don’t bring up feelings! As the heir of the Jiang Family, feelings shouldn’t feature in your life! What I want is benefits for the Jiang Family! As the heir of the Jiang Family, the Qin Family’s daughter is your best choice!” His eyes narrowed in slits. “Tao ‘Er, you grew up together with Qin Yan. You are like a big brother to her. Now, you will be her husband. In the future, you’ll fall in love with her!”

When Jiang Tao heard this, he opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but he didn’t know how to say it.

However, Old Master Jiang waved his hand and said, “Since you’re back, you should rest at home for a few days. In a few days, we’ll announce to the public the marriage between the Jiang family and the Qin family. You should be prepared!”

“Grandfather!” Jiang Tao cried out in surprise.

At this moment, Uncle Li said, “Eldest young master, Old Master is tired and needs to rest. Please go back first. If there’s anything, we’ll talk about it after old master has rested!”

Butler Li was Old Master Jiang’s spokesman. Jiang Tao got the meaning. He could only take his leave.

After Jiang Tao left, Old Master Jiang said, “Butler Li, get someone to investigate what happened to Tao ‘Er in that small county.”

Butler Li was a little surprised when he heard that. “Old Master, do you suspect something?”

“Tao ‘Er is particularly resistant to the marriage. This will not happen if nothing has influenced him in that small county. I will not allow anyone or anything to obstruct the path that has been arranged for him. Do you understand?”

Uncle Li immediately understood. “Yes!”
