Chapter 285 Alarmist!
Chapter 285: Alarmist!
Tang An is the younger sister that Shi Mubai watched grow up.
He knew Tang An's character.
Tang An was kind, sensible, and innocent from a young age. He even fed many stray cats and dogs on the street when he was a child.
Would a vicious person have such compassion for stray dogs?
Shi Mubai believed that Tang An was not that kind of person.
How could she betray me?
He's Tang An's brother!
Totally impossible!
In Shi Mubai's opinion, Old Madam Shi was simply exaggerating.
Because Madam Shi disliked Tang An.
Therefore, she did not want Tang An to live a good life.
In the past, Shi Mubai always thought that Old Madam Shi was a magnanimous person.
But now it seems.
The old lady was completely different from what he had imagined.
She wasn't as magnanimous as she thought.
Not only are they not open-minded, but they are also not magnanimous.
On the contrary, it's a bit selfish.
but.
This cannot be blamed on Madam Shi.
After all, Madam Shi used to be a reasonable old lady, but she has changed since Jiang Ning came back.
Even a fool could tell that Old Madam Shi's current state was definitely influenced by Jiang Ning.
It was Jiang Ning who spoke ill of Tang An to Old Madam Shi.
Jiang Ning was spoiled and misbehaved while living in the countryside.
Such a proper young lady from the Shi family, yet she insists on behaving like those country bumpkins; it's utterly disrespectful.
Madam Shi is getting senile. She believes whatever Jiang Ning says. Doesn't she have the ability to think independently?
Also, is blood relation really that important?
Just because Jiang Ning is related to the Shi family by blood, does that mean Old Madam Shi can't distinguish right from wrong, and can't even tell the difference between a real pearl and a fake pearl?
It is clear!
Now Tang An is the real shining pearl!
Seeing how much Shi Mubai believed in Tang An, Old Madam Shi frowned slightly and said earnestly, "Mubai, don't be so impulsive! Tang An is not as good as you think. Bad bamboo can't grow into good shoots. Shi Nanyue caused your uncle's family of three to be separated for so many years for the sake of profit. We still don't know if your aunt is alive or dead. With a mother like that, how good do you think Tang An can be?"
Tang An was raised by Shi Mubai, and at the same time, Shi Mubai was raised by Old Madam Shi.
As a close relative.
Madam Shi knew how difficult Shi Mubai's journey had been, and how hard it had been for him to achieve what he had today!
She couldn't just stand by and watch Shi Mubai walk down a path of no return.
Tang An is a traitor!
Anyone who gets close to her will definitely come to a bad end.
Hearing these words from Madam Shi, Shi Mubai raised his head slightly, looked at Madam Shi, met her gaze, and then said, "Second Madam, don't you think you have too much prejudice against An'an? Yes, that's right! Shi Nanyue has done many unforgivable things, but Shi Nanyue is Shi Nanyue, and An'an is An'an. You can't lump the two of them together."
“An’an is innocent. She did not do anything heinous. She just had no choice in her birth.”
If Tang An had to be wrong, then her mistake was not being able to choose her own birth.
Her mistake was that she crawled out of Shi Nanyue's belly.
Think about it from another perspective.
What if Tang An was born to Si Huashang?
If Tang An and the Si family are related by blood.
Would Old Madam Shi still be so ruthless towards Tang An and kick him out of the Shi family?
Totally impossible!
Shi Mubai felt increasingly disappointed in Old Madam Shi.
He took a deep breath, looked at Madam Shi, and then said, "Second Madam, I can understand if you don't want to continue raising An'an, after all, you already have your own granddaughter."
“You can ignore An’an, but I can’t. I’m an older brother.”
No matter when or where, the older brother would always stand in front of his younger sister, rain or shine.
He took on all the burdens for his younger sister.
"Mu Bai!" Old Madam Shi sighed helplessly, "You will really regret this."
“I will not regret it, never,” Shi Mubai said with unusual firmness. “On the contrary, you, Second Grandmother, are the one who should regret missing out on such an outstanding girl as An’an.”
Missing out on such an outstanding granddaughter as Tang An, it's easy to imagine how much Madam Shi will regret it later.
just.
There is everything in this world.
There's no going back!
After saying that, Shi Mubai continued, "Second Grandmother, I'm sorry to have bothered you today. I'll head back now."
"Mu Bai, wait a moment." Old Madam Shi also took a few steps forward.
"Second Grandma, is there anything else?" Shi Mubai asked.
If Madam Shi weren't an elder, Shi Mubai really wouldn't want to talk to her anymore.
How good can a person be if they can abandon their granddaughter whom they have raised for more than 20 years?
Madam Shi's expression was very solemn. "Mu Bai, I'm doing this all for your own good. I've seen how hard you've worked all this time. Listen to your second grandmother's advice. Tang An is truly a traitor! If you take her back, it will cause endless trouble."
For his own good?
A speechless expression appeared in Shi Mubai's eyes.
If Madam Shi truly cared for him, she wouldn't have stopped him from being good to Tang An.
How ridiculous!
Shi Mubai turned to look at Old Madam Shi, his face full of speechlessness. "Second Madam, I have said everything I need to say. Although An'an and I are not blood-related siblings, our relationship has long surpassed that of ordinary siblings."
Madam Shi raised her hand and pressed her forehead. "Mu Bai, it will be too late when you regret it. Your second grandmother doesn't want you to really take that step. Calm down first and see clearly whether Tang An is a human or a ghost!"
Madam Shi did not understand.
Why is it that no matter how well she tries to reason with him, Shi Mubai just won't listen?
Does he really have to suffer a loss?
Shi Mubai was already getting impatient.
He felt that Old Madam Shi was being a bit nosy.
In the end, he only called Old Madam Shi "Second Madam".
Madam Shi was not his biological grandmother.
Thinking of this, Shi Mubai looked up at Madam Shi and continued, "Second Madam, as the saying goes, eating more vegetables is good for your health, and meddling in other people's business will increase your prestige. I think the most important thing for you at your age is to take good care of your health."
This has been made very obvious.
Old Madam Shi looked at Shi Mubai in disbelief.
Was he blaming himself for being a busybody as an elder?
But she was just heartbroken that Shi Mubai had to go through so much at such a young age!
"Mu Bai, you've misunderstood. I," Old Madam Shi wanted to say something more, but Jiang Ning walked over from the side and said, "Grandma, some things are best left unsaid. Since your cousin won't listen, I advise you to put aside your desire to help others and respect their fate."
At this moment, no matter what Madam Shi says, it will be useless.
Shi Mubai will not only not believe Old Madam Shi, but will also think that Old Madam Shi is bad and that she is meddling in other people's business.
Since Madam Shi had already reminded Shi Mubai, she had fulfilled her responsibility as an elder.
What happens to Shi Mubai in the future is his own business.
It has nothing to do with Madam Shi.
As a granddaughter, Jiang Ning didn't want to see her own grandmother trying to curry favor with Shi Mubai.
not worth it!
Shi Mubai looked up at Jiang Ning, his expression complex. There were things he hadn't wanted to say, but now he wanted to. "Shi Sheng, An An's current predicament is largely due to your actions. You don't need to pretend here. I know perfectly well who's good and who's bad!"
If some things are not said, Tang An will suffer injustice for the rest of his life.
Tang An is magnanimous and doesn't need to argue with Jiang Ning.
But Shi Mubai couldn't.
He is the older brother.
If the older brother doesn't fight for his younger sister's rights, then Tang An will truly feel wronged to death.
Shi Mubai could not bear to see Tang An suffer such injustice.
Why is it that Tang An was kicked out, while Jiang Ning can still stand here openly as the eldest daughter of the Shi family?
This is unfair to Tang An.
Shi Mubai only regretted that Old Madam Shi was not an elder who treated everyone equally, because the concept of blood ties was too important to Old Madam Shi.
I wonder if Madam Shi will ever regain her senses.
Hearing Shi Mubai's words, Jiang Ning wasn't angry at all. His handsome face didn't even show the slightest ripple. On the contrary, Old Madam Shi was furious and immediately stood in front of Jiang Ning. "Mubai! You're so ungrateful! Shengbao was just trying to remind you not to do anything wrong, and you say such things instead! I think you really can't tell the difference between friends and family!"
They said everything they could think of, from kind words to harsh words.
But Shi Mubai just wouldn't listen.
This is utterly a case of biting the hand that feeds you!
In the past, Madam Shi always thought that Shi Mubai was a sensible and good child.
Now it seems!
Shi Mubai and his father are birds of a feather.
The more Madam Shi thought about it, the angrier she became.
Jiang Ning spoke softly, "Grandma, don't be angry. Everyone has their own life and their own path to walk. Why make yourself angry over other people's affairs? Getting angry harms your liver, it's not worth it."
Since Shi Mubai said that Old Madam Shi was an outsider, Jiang Ning naturally wouldn't be polite to him.
At this point, Jiang Ning glanced at Shi Mubai and said, "Good luck, and I hope Tang An won't let you down."
Shi Mubai snorted inwardly, turned to look at Jiang Ning, and said, word by word, "Don't worry, I will only be proud of An'an from now on!"
Tang An and Jiang Ning are not the same.
The only things Jiang Ning can boast about are probably her identities as N and the eldest daughter of the Shi family.
Tang An will definitely achieve even greater things in the future!
She shines in her area of expertise.
Seeing Tang An succeed, Jiang Ning will definitely be so jealous that she'll be writhing and crawling in the shadows.
Thinking of this, Shi Mubai felt a little better.
Are you proud of Tang An?
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning smiled slightly and said, "Then I wish you all your dreams come true."
Shi Mubai snorted coldly and turned to leave.
this time.
Madam Shi did not say anything more.
Jiang Ning is right.
Everyone has their own life, and everyone has their own path to walk.
This is Shi Mubai's life.
She had already said everything she needed to say, so what could she do if Shi Mubai wouldn't listen to her?
Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.
After Shi Nanxing's figure completely disappeared in front of her, Old Madam Shi sighed, "Mu Bai has experienced many hardships since childhood. He has had a very difficult journey and has finally gotten to where he is today. Sigh... I hope he won't regret it!"
Jiang Ning took Old Madam Shi's arm and said, "Grandma, you've done your best. Do your best and leave the rest to fate. From now on, we just need to take care of our own family matters."
Madam Shi nodded, "Shengbao, you're right."
The Shi family also has a lot of things to deal with right now.
Si Huashang has not been found yet.
Shi Nanxing's body still needs to recover.
There are also new products from the Shi Group waiting to be released.
She was too busy taking care of her own family affairs to bother with other people's business. If it weren't for the fact that Shi Nanxing was the Shi family's nephew, Old Madam Shi wouldn't have bothered with such matters.
the other side.
After returning from the Shi family home, Shi Mubai went back to the hotel.
Tang An was still waiting for him in the hotel lobby.
Upon seeing Shi Mubai enter, Tang An immediately stood up from the sofa, "Brother Mubai, you're back."
Seeing Tang An's expectant face, Shi Mubai felt extremely guilty.
He had thought that this trip would allow Old Madam Shi to take Tang An back, but to his surprise, Old Madam Shi not only did not want to take Tang An back, but even tried to sow discord between him and prevent him from being kind to Tang An!
Seeing that Shi Mubai's expression was off, Tang An forced a smile. "Brother Mubai, it's okay! Actually, I already knew the result. Grandma never liked me. She only has eyes for Shengbao. After all, I'm not a member of the Shi family. It's normal that she doesn't like me."
At this point, Tang An's eyes were very red, as if he had suffered a great injustice. "How can I compare to Sheng Bao? In Grandma's eyes, I'm just a little bastard."
