Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 1563 - 1565: Giving You a Choice

"Just say it directly, Chiang Qingzhu," Chiang Xiao called her by name and said, "If you want to think about Grandpa and Grandma, and me, then move out of the Kong Family, go back to live in Huaming County with Grandpa and Grandma, and never see Kuang Kanzhi again, nor have any contact with him. As for what you owe him—the medical fees, living expenses, food, clothing, housing—we’ll pay it back on your behalf. Do you agree or not?"

"Chiang Xiao..." Kuang Kanzhi’s face darkened as he sternly reprimanded, "In your eyes, am I such a petty person only concerned about money? My feelings for your mother are genuine—how could they be measured through something as vulgar as money?"

Chiang Xiao immediately retorted, "Fine, if you’re so generous and virtuous, then let’s just say all these years were a good deed on your part. I’ll have someone make a silk banner for you and buy an entire page in the newspaper to proclaim your noble act, expressing our immense gratitude. We won’t taint your righteousness with a single cent. How about that?"

Kuang Kanzhi froze, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"All of this can be discussed. The only thing not up for negotiation is what I just said—you two must cut off all contact and never meet again."

"Little, how can you do this? My life was saved by your Uncle Kuang. I can no longer leave him..."

Chiang Xiao interrupted Chiang Qingzhu coldly, "So, you’ve lost all self-respect, and you want to take Grandpa, Grandma, and me down with you? Chiang Qingzhu, Xiao Fang is Kuang Kanzhi’s wife—what are you to him? A mistress? If you want to be a mistress, fine—it’s your choice. But if you choose this path, don’t ever mention who you are, don’t say you’re Grandpa and Grandma’s daughter, and don’t drag me into this. Because I won’t acknowledge you. I don’t have a mother as shameless as you."

Chiang Qingzhu was trembling all over. freewebnσvel.cѳm

She looked helplessly at Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao.

Who would’ve thought that the parents who used to love and protect her the most would now lower their heads without looking at her, without even refuting Chiang Xiao’s words?

Tears slid down Chiang Qingzhu’s face again.

Chiang Xiao continued, "I’ll give you five minutes to think it over. Choose us, or choose that man by your side. Make up your mind."

With that, she leaned back and stared coldly at Chiang Qingzhu.

Through her tear-filled eyes, Chiang Qingzhu looked at the face resembling the man from her dreams. Her heart ached terribly. Ah Liu would never be so cold. Ah Liu’s eyes were always filled with laughter, and his mouth always curved into a warm smile. He made her feel so comforted.

Chiang Xiao was his daughter, so how could she be this cold?

She subconsciously cried out, "Little, I wasn’t planning on coming back in the first place! If not for you saying, saying that Dad and Mom missed me, I would still be perfectly fine in the Kong Family right now..."

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao suddenly raised their heads to look at her, a trace of disbelief on their faces.

Did she mean that she originally had no intention of returning to acknowledge them?

If she hadn’t encountered Little, she wouldn’t have come back?

Nothing could hurt more than what Chiang Qingzhu had just said.

The hands of Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao trembled violently.

"I—I mean, I would’ve arranged everything properly before coming back..." Chiang Qingzhu realized she had misspoken and hurriedly tried to explain.

Chiang Songhai took a deep breath, and all of a sudden, it was as if all the strength had left his body. He slumped and said dejectedly, "Qingzhu, Little’s words are the same as your mother’s and mine. There’s no need to say anything else. Make your choice now—either come back to Huaming County with us or return to the Capital with him. Think it through carefully. We’re only giving you this one chance."
