This is also why they are so eager to distance themselves from Jiang Mingzhu. Thɪs chapter is updated by n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
"No need, I won’t go to South City with you, nor do I want any recognition of my ancestors and returning to the clan. The only reason I acknowledge you is because you are my family and have blood ties with me, that’s all. I am doing well now and don’t need to rely on the Jiang Family’s power to achieve anything."
Jiang Xue directly rejected the Old Sir Jiang’s proposal, making his face turn dark as he looked at Jiang Xue coldly and said, "Jiang Xue, you are still young, and having grown up in the countryside, you don’t understand the importance of family background. If you return to the Jiang Family, your future path will be wider, smoother, and farther."
Looking back at the Old Sir Jiang, Jiang Xue spoke decisively, "I appreciate Old Jiang’s goodwill, but really, there’s no need. I don’t want to borrow the Jiang Family’s power, nor do I want to take advantage of them. Everything about the Jiang Family has nothing to do with me. As for my own path, I know how to walk it."
Jiang Xue did not want to establish a connection with the Jiang Family, and she had no good feelings towards the Jiang Family members. As for the Old Sir Jiang and Old Madam Jiang, after knowing they sheltered the murderer who killed her birth parents, she no longer had that kind of reverence for them.
Jiang Xue’s repeated refusal made the faces of the Jiang Family elders grow even darker. They looked at Jiang Xue and said coldly, "Jiang Xue, have you thought it through?"
Jiang Xue nodded her head, considering it an answer to their question.
The Jiang Family elders, seeing Jiang Xue refuse so decisively, didn’t know what to say. They thought that with the prestige of the Jiang Family, Jiang Xue wouldn’t refuse.
Unexpectedly, she did refuse. This was something they did not anticipate, and as a result, they felt embarrassed to ask Jiang Xue if she would stay for a few more days.
Seeing the two stop talking, Jiang Xue also didn’t open her mouth again and acted as if she didn’t notice the conflicted expressions on their faces.
Standing up, Jiang Xue carried Little Reunion back to the room.
Watching Jiang Xue return to her room, the face-conscious Old Sir Jiang could no longer stay, and after giving Old Madam Jiang a look, he stood up to say goodbye to Jiang Family Parents.
Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang still hadn’t recovered from the words said by the elders before, so they didn’t insist on keeping them and directly saw them off.
Father Jiang couldn’t walk far, so he saw them to the staircase entrance and then turned back without seeing them farther.
The Jiang Family elders went downstairs, talking as they walked, "It seems we underestimated her."
"Old man, what do we do next? Are we just going to give up ?"
"How could that be? Jiang Xue is now the only descendant of the Jiang Family, even if she refuses, it doesn’t change the fact that she is a bloodline of the Jiang Family."
"That’s true, bloodline is something that can’t be changed." Old Madam Jiang agreed with her husband’s words, even if Jiang Xue is unwilling to return to the Jiang Family, she cannot deny being of Jiang Family blood.
"However, we still have to find a way to make her recognize the Jiang Family and return to the Jiang Family."
"If only Boss and his wife were still here, then maybe she wouldn’t be so resistant to returning to the Jiang Family."
"Yes, but Boss and them have been gone for years, how could they still be here?"
"Don’t worry, we’ll think of a way. Jiang Xue returning to the Jiang Family is only a matter of time. Don’t worry, I’ll come up with something."
The Jiang Family elders continued talking as they left the community where Jiang Xue lived.
