Chapter 148 Going to the Long Family to Find Jiang Li
Upon hearing this, Qin Yulian immediately understood that the old man had come in person to ask Jiang Li to fulfill the bet he made with that brat Jiang Youli!
The old man is really losing his mind more and more!
He really wanted his daughter to kneel down and apologize to his granddaughter!
Qin Yulian became even more certain of the guess she had made with her son Jiang Xing the night before.
The old man must be possessed by an evil spirit or bewitched by this brat!
Qin Yulian went downstairs, sat down on the sofa, put her luxury handbag aside, and replied, "Third Sister went straight back to the Long family with Second Master Long after attending the engagement banquet last night. She didn't go back to the Jiang family."
Grandpa Jiang snorted coldly: "Back to the Long family? Has she forgotten her bet with You Li? Yesterday she confidently said she could get Chairman Zhou to come out."
It's laughable to think about it. If it weren't for Youli, the child who would protect the Jiang family, with Jiang Li and Jiang Yangxu causing so much trouble, the Jiang family would have continued to decline and fall into ruin.
Qin Yulian said incredulously, "Dad, Third Sister is your own daughter and Jiang Youli's aunt. The bet was just to motivate her. Are you really going to make Third Sister kneel down and apologize to a junior like Jiang Youli?"
Old Master Jiang said sternly, "If you can't afford to gamble, don't make grand promises. If everyone in business were as untrustworthy as you, who would dare to cooperate with the Jiang family in the future!"
Qin Yulian was speechless.
After a while, she smoothed her hair and said, "Dad, I can't control why you insist that Jiang Li kneel down and apologize. You should contact her yourself and ask her to apologize to your precious granddaughter."
Jiang Youli said, "Grandpa, let me contact Auntie San so you won't have to worry about me."
As she spoke, she took out her phone, asked the pretty new mother for Jiang Li's number, and dialed it.
A short while later, the call was connected.
"Who is it?" The woman's voice was slightly nasal, as if she had just woken up.
Jiang Youli smiled and said, "Third Aunt, it's me, your niece Jiang Youli."
The voice on the other end quickly regained its composure, "Jiang Youli?! Why are you calling me?"
Jiang Youli reminded her, "It seems that Third Aunt slept quite well last night, but have you forgotten that you still owe me an apology?"
"Jiang Youli, I'm your third aunt. I was just joking when I made the bet with you. You're not really going to take it seriously, are you?" Jiang Li clearly didn't want to admit it.
Jiang Youli said deliberately, "Third Aunt, of course I took it seriously. I was just afraid that you wouldn't admit it, so I had Grandpa witness it. Grandpa is right next to me now, waiting for you to come back to the Jiang family and apologize to me."
There was silence on the other end, and after a long while, someone gritted their teeth and said, "...Heh, then you just wait!"
After saying that, the other party hung up the phone.
Jiang Youli took the phone.
Grandpa Jiang asked, "So? What did your third aunt say?"
Jiang Youli said, "My third aunt seems quite angry. She told me to wait, but I doubt she'll come back to the Jiang family to apologize to me."
"Nonsense, she's an elder, and the second wife of the Long family. How could she possibly kneel down and apologize to a junior like you? If you really want her to apologize, go find her at the Long family if you dare." Qin Yulian had expected this and deliberately provoked Jiang Youli.
She refused to believe it; did Jiang Youli really dare to go to the Long family and force Jiang Li to apologize?
Old Master Jiang hesitated for a moment. It would be good if this matter could be resolved within the Jiang family. If it escalated to the Long family, it would indeed look bad.
Seeing the old man's hesitant look, Jiang Youli guessed what he was thinking. Her third aunt, Jiang Li, probably thought the same way, believing that the old man wouldn't really go to the Long family.
Just then, Zhang Susu said, "Youli, let's go, let's go to the Long family to find her now."
Before Jiang Youli could even speak, Qin Yulian started to mock her.
"Oh, sister-in-law, you've really lost your mind. Aren't you afraid of any consequences? Go to the Long family and ask Third Sister to apologize to Jiang Youli. Third Sister may not care about face, but does the Long family not care about face? You actually want Second Madam of the Long family to apologize to Jiang Youli in front of the Long family? People who don't know any better will think that our Jiang family doesn't respect the Long family."
"Dad, I know you're biased towards your precious granddaughter right now, but I still have to advise you to just let bygones be bygones regarding Third Sister's apology. Otherwise, you might really offend the Long family because of this."
After Qin Yulian finished speaking, she picked up her luxury handbag and stood up: "Alright, I have something to do and need to go out, so I won't keep you company any longer."
Today, she needs to use her connections to find a reliable master who knows exorcism and a Gu master who is skilled in Gu poison, to determine whether the old man is really possessed or has been cursed. This matter cannot be delayed.
As soon as Qin Yulian stepped out of the villa, she heard Jiang Youli say behind her, "Grandpa, if you feel uncomfortable, you don't have to come with me to the Long family. My mother and I can go by ourselves."
She stumbled and almost fell. That brat, she really wants to go to the Long family and kneel down to apologize to Jiang Li!
If the old man still had any sense, he certainly wouldn't agree to Jiang Youli's outrageous behavior!
But if the old man agrees, it means he's absolutely out of his mind!
After hesitating for a moment, Grandpa Jiang said helplessly, "Youli, what your second aunt said earlier makes sense. Why don't we just let this matter go? Of course, I can give you some compensation."
Upon hearing this, Qin Yulian thought to herself that the old man was not entirely beyond saving.
Zhang Susu answered for Jiang Youli: "This matter cannot be left like this! If Jiang Li had won this bet, do you think she would have let it go?"
"No! She'll only take this opportunity to humiliate You Li!"
"Why should Jiang Li just let it go after losing? Does that mean anyone can trample on You Li without taking any responsibility? As You Li's mother, I won't allow her to be bullied and have to swallow her anger!"
Jiang Youli felt a warmth in her heart, and at the same time expressed her determination: "Grandpa, just as my mother said, I will not let this matter go."
"Grandpa, you can rest assured. I'm just asking Auntie to fulfill the bet. As long as the Long family doesn't make things difficult for me, I won't go against them."
“But if the Long family is unreasonable, I don’t think I need to be polite to them.”
"After all, Third Aunt has been married to Second Master Long for many years, but the Long family has not given the Jiang family any favorable support because of it. So our Jiang family doesn't need to give the Long family too much face for fear of offending them, right?"
Grandpa Jiang realized that the Jiang family now needed his granddaughter to grow stronger! Why should he bother maintaining a relationship with the Long family, who had never provided any significant assistance to the Jiang family?
Having figured this out, Old Master Jiang immediately said:
"Alright, you can go ahead. Take plenty of bodyguards with you, just in case a real conflict breaks out."
At this moment, Qin Yulian was certain that the old man was truly and completely possessed by evil spirits!
"it is good."
Jiang Youli and her beautiful new mother left the villa in the West District and headed straight for the Long family with bodyguards.
After much deliberation, Qin Yulian finally decided to go to the Long family. She wanted to see how that brat Jiang Youli would make Jiang Li kneel down and apologize to her in the Long family!
An hour and a half later—
The Long Family Compound.
