Chapter 498 I Want to Apologize to You

A look of understanding flashed in Mo Mo's eyes.

After finishing their business, Jiang Ruan, thinking about Tang Bai's lack of leave recently, asked, "Has the Tang family head not contacted you during this time?"

"I've looked for it," Tang Bai said casually.

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Why didn't I hear him say that?

"He wanted to meet with me to discuss this in detail, but I told him I was busy recently," Tang Bai told him truthfully.

“You can go about your business,” Jiang Ruan said. “Mo Mo will always be here anyway.”

"Let's talk about it after the shares are registered in your name. There's no rush now." Tang Bai wasn't too comfortable with the Qin family members; 20% of the shares in the Qin Group was no small amount.

Jiang Ruan didn't refuse: "Okay."

Half an hour later.

They arrived home.

Qin Jiangye arrived with them, and as soon as he got out of the car, he asked Jiang Ruan, "Little cousin, do you mind if I mooch a meal here?"

Jiang Ruan invited him to come in and sit down: "It's alright, come in."

Since she arrived in Haicheng, Qin Jiangye has never shown her any malice. He has always been very polite to her, and sometimes even spoke up for her. He also never got involved in her mother's car accident.

She had no reason to dislike him.

In the time that followed.

The family began their meal in a joyful atmosphere.

Looking at the atmosphere filled with laughter and joy, a hint of envy flashed deep in Qin Jiangye's eyes.

Dinner is over.

After chatting with Jiang An and the others for a few minutes, Qin Jiangye went outside to sit with Old Master Qin.

Seeing that the person was clearly preoccupied, Old Master Qin asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Qin Jiangye: "I miss you."

Old Master Qin would often banter with him: "I'm not dead, why are you missing me?"

"Why didn't you raise my dad well back then?" Qin Jiangye said with his hands behind his head, his tone smug. "They're both your children, but my aunt is so outstanding and wonderful, while my dad... tsk."

"He didn't learn his lesson, so how can you blame me?" Old Master Qin felt he had no reason to blame him.

Qin Jiangye glanced sideways, a slight smile playing on his lips: "If you had beaten him a few more times back then, he might have learned his lesson."

Old Master Qin: "..."

He doesn't like to hit children unless they've committed a serious crime.

After all, they were all his wife's children.

"Never mind, I'm going to find my little cousin." Qin Jiangye stood up from his chair. "You can take your time digesting here."

He went into the living room, asked for Jiang Ruan's location, and then went upstairs.

At this moment, Jiang Ruan was playing with Sui Sui. Seeing their happy and warm appearance, Qin Jiangye felt a mix of emotions. He quickly composed himself and asked as if nothing was wrong, "Little cousin, do you have time?"

Jiang Ruan looked up: "What's wrong?"

"There's something I'd like to talk to you about," Qin Jiangye said casually. "It won't take you too long."

Jiang Ruan glanced at Sui Sui.

Sui Sui has grown a few centimeters taller than before: "Go, Mommy."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan rubbed his head. "Mommy will be back soon."

Sui Sui nodded her head: "Mmm!"

Jiang Ruan led Qin Jiangye to the study.

Without giving it much thought, she casually asked, "What do you want to talk about?"

"I want to apologize to you." Qin Jiangye's face became serious, his previous nonchalant attitude gone. "I did something that I'm sorry for."

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Jiang Ruan: "When?"

Just as Qin Jiangye was about to speak, his phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was Qin Muchi calling, he hung up without any hesitation.

The next second.

Qin Muchi sent a photo of a whip.

Qin Jiangye's expression immediately changed. Ignoring Jiang Ruan's presence, he dialed Qin Muchi's number: "What do you want to do?"

"What did you say?" Qin Muchi's irritable voice rang out. "You have ten minutes to come back, or you know what will happen!"

Qin Jiangye tightened his grip on the phone: "I'll be right back, don't do anything rash."

Qin Muchi slammed down the phone.

Qin Jiangye put away his phone and looked at Jiang Ruanshi, his emotions hidden in his eyes: "Something urgent has suddenly happened at home, I have to go back first."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan nodded.

"I'll explain the details another day," Qin Jiangye explained.

To put it bluntly, he doesn't have time to apologize or make amends.

Qin Muchi, that madman, when he really goes crazy, he won't wait for anyone.

"It's alright," Jiang Ruan said without elaborating. "No rush."

Although Qin Jiangye was a little far away from her when he made the call, she could still hear Qin Muchi's voice on the other end of the line.

Qin Jiangye had always been the carefree third young master of the Qin family, her grandfather's favorite grandson, but now, things seemed to be quite different from what she had imagined.

She didn't think much of it.

After seeing him off, I continued to play with Sui Sui.

At this moment, Qin Jiangye was extremely anxious. After getting into the car, he called his mother, Mu Yuke, but no one answered after four or five consecutive ringtones.

He had no choice but to call Qin Muchi.

No one answered the phone.

Looking at the screen that kept lighting up, Qin Muchi scoffed and said to Mu Yuke, who was covered in wounds on the ground, "He gets worried sick every time he hears you're in trouble. Why didn't he come to visit me when I was in the hospital?"

Mu Yuke didn't say anything.

The pain in her mouth and body robbed her of all her senses.

"Speak." Qin Muchi was getting angrier and angrier at her silence. "Do I have to beat you up before you answer?"

"Fight if you want." Mu Yuke's voice was calm and without anger, and she looked at him as if he were a dead man. "A few more blows won't make a difference."

"Fine!" Qin Muchi stood up abruptly. "You've got guts. Let's see if you scream in pain later."

After saying that, he picked up the whip next to him and lashed it at Mu Yuke. His face was ferocious and he used all his strength with each strike.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

"Let's see how long you can hold out!"

"You and that little brat are sent by heaven to get revenge on me! One of you doesn't even respect me as your father, and the other has been cheating on me ever since you married me."

Qin Muchi hit harder and harder, feeling furious at the thought of giving away all the shares and that Qin Jiangye, that brat, running off with someone else.

Mu Yuke was unmoved by these words.

This is how insecure and incompetent people are: they see normal interactions as something sinister, and if someone more outstanding than them appears in their lives, they think she's seducing him into cheating on them.

"Speak!" Qin Muchi couldn't stand her like this. "Beg me, beg me and I won't hit you!"

"Bang!"

The door was opened.

Qin Jiangye ran in, panting.

Upon seeing the scene in the living room, he rushed over, snatched Qin Muchi's whip, and kicked him, yelling, "Are you crazy!"

Qin Muchi was caught off guard by his sudden kick.

Qin Jiangye tossed the whip aside and carefully helped Mu Yuke up: "Mom, how are you? I'll take you to the hospital now."

"No need," Mu Yuke refused.

"You're covered in injuries, how can you not go?" Qin Jiangye said with concern.

"It's nothing, just some medicine will do." Mu Yuke's tone was calm, as if her wounds didn't hurt at all. "Go do your thing, don't worry about me."

"If I don't care about you, who will?" Qin Jiangye helped her up. "You have to go to the hospital today no matter what."

He knew why she didn't want to go.

Because if we go to Grandpa's house, we'll find out that Grandpa has always treated Mom badly. If he finds out that Mom was hospitalized because of domestic violence, he'll definitely think she's disgraced the Qin family.

Oh.

That's ridiculous.
