Originally, Jiang Yuan maintained a serene expression, but after hearing Jian Mei's loaded words, evident anger flashed in his eyes. He turned and entered Jiang Ruyun's room.
However, he paused, surprised to see Jiang Peihuan there. "Huan Er, you're here too?"
"Second Uncle," replied Jiang Peihuan, performing a polite bow. If she previously harbored any doubts about Jian Mei, the words just spoken solidified her suspicion—this woman had hidden intentions.
"Yun Er, how could you behave so arrogantly and disrespectfully? Isn't this against the manners I've taught you?" Jiang Yuan scolded his daughter, his eyes full of disappointment as he stood beside her bed.
Jiang Peihuan was stunned hearing these reprimands. Jiang Ruyun was Jiang Yuan's only daughter, and he had always showered her with affection, both in his previous and current life.
Now, it appeared he was even willing to scold his own daughter over another woman.
