A Beloved Wife in Marriage

57 She… Doesn’t Love Me Anymore?

The old lady knew that he was angry that she had helped Qianqian, so she didn’t argue with him. She just glared at him. “Bastard, if you were willing to listen in the first place, would I have to pretend to faint like this?”

Couldn’t he understand an old lady like her? She was already so old, but she still had to worry about him.

Jiang Yanshen glanced at her. “Since you know that I don’t want a divorce, why did you help her?”

There must be a reason why she suddenly changed her mind.

The old lady took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “You know that Madam Zhang is my aide, right?”

Jiang Yanshen nodded.

“Back then, I went to Jiang City to recuperate and left Madam Zhang in Lan City because I wanted her to help me keep an eye on Li Guilan and not let her bully Qianqian. But it turns out that I’ve really underestimated the greed of human nature.” The redness in the old lady’s eyes faded, and her gaze became sharp.

“Qianqian has suffered too much in the Jiang family. Since you don’t care about her and she doesn’t love you anymore, why must the two of you live as a resentful couple, like your parents?”

Jiang Yanshen’s heart skipped a beat. Something flashed across his eyes so quickly that even the old lady did not catch it. His thin lips pursed slightly. “She… doesn’t love me anymore?”

There was a hint of surprise in his deep voice.

Seeing him like that, the old lady was furious. “With your halfwit, pea-brain temper, I wouldn’t love you either! How many times have I told you not to just work and ignore Qianqian? You just wouldn’t listen…”

Jiang Yanshen’s brows were tightly knitted together. His lowered eyes covered the doubts in his eyes, as if he didn’t know how to accept this fact.

From what he knew, Lin Qingqian loved him. She had always loved him and would always love him.

Even though he did not know what love was!

When he heard the Old Madam say that Lin Qingqian didn’t love him anymore, he felt as if he had been hit in the head. His head felt like it was about to split apart, as if something had been forcefully pulled out of his body.

The old lady’s heart ached when she saw him looking down and not saying anything. She said in a low voice, “Since things have come to this, just treat it as if you’re not fated to be with her! You’ve granted her wish, so don’t make things difficult for her in the future…”

No matter what the old lady said, Jiang Yanshen kept his head lowered and didn’t speak until the old lady was tired and waved for him to go back.

Jiang Yanshen turned around and left. Madam Liu, who had been taking care of the old lady, walked in.

“Old Madam, are you alright?”

The old lady shook her head. “I’m fine. I just feel sorry for these two children…”

Madam Liu comforted her. “They’re still young. No one knows what will happen in the future. They’ll get better over time. You don’t have to worry. You should take good care of your body instead.”

The old lady smiled mysteriously. “Of course I have to recuperate well. Even if it’s for Yanshen, I have to hold on for a while longer! As long as I’m still breathing, no one can take away the Jiang family’s assets.”

“Aiyo, who would compete with the Young Master for assets?” Madam Liu laughed at her worry. “Second Young Master admires Young Master so much. He won’t.”

The old lady glanced at her. “Yunshen might not, but what about his second uncle?”

Madam Liu was stunned and could not refute.

When the old lady thought of her second son, her eyes were filled with disgust.

A moment later, Madam Liu asked, “Then the butler and Madam Liu…”

Before she could finish, the old lady raised her hand to stop her and said in a low voice, “Deal with them all. I don’t want to see them again.”

There was no lack of sharpness in her tired voice…

…

When Lin Qingqian walked out of the hospital, a car stopped by the roadside. Lin Chaoyan got out of the car in a hurry and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her expression.

“Are you all right?”

Lin Qingqian shook her head. “Auntie, why are you here?”

“You’ve already made the old lady faint from anger. The Jiang family must hate you so much that they’re gritting their teeth. How can I be at ease?!” After saying that, Lin Chaoyan saw her shoeless feet and scolded, “You’re not even wearing shoes. What if you prick your feet?”

As she spoke, she took off her shoes and squatted down to help her put them on…
