Chapter 452: Dealing With Sheng An’ning
How to deal with Sheng An’ning?!
As soon as this question was thrown out, it instantly touched everyone’s hearts.
The atmosphere suddenly froze, as if even the flow of air was constantly decreasing. No one spoke, as if they were afraid of breaking the strange atmosphere.
Jiang Zhiyuan looked at Sheng An’ning, who was sitting on the ground not far away, her hair disheveled, and his old eyes were faintly filled with melancholy.
Obviously, Jiang Zhiyuan had not thought of an answer to this question for a while. Luo Xiuxiu, who was sitting next to him, saw that Jiang Zhiyuan was frowning and sighed silently in her heart.
Back then, Sheng An’ning’s grandfather and Jiang Zhiyuan had a very deep relations.h.i.+p. Now, it was very difficult to deal with Sheng An’ning.
Jiang Zhiyuan coughed, and a sour feeling ran through his limbs and bones.
“An’ning, she…”
Before Jiang Zhiyuan could finish, Sheng An’ning seemed to have suddenly realized that she was now meat on the chopping board. She ran over quickly with tears still on her face.
With a loud thud, Sheng An’ning knelt down in front of Jiang Zhiyuan!
Everyone around was stunned by Sheng An’ning’s actions!
Sheng An’ning raised her tear-stained face, her eyes filled with an extremely weak light. She held onto Jiang Zhiyuan’s clothes tightly, as if she was holding onto a life-saving straw.
To Sheng An’ning, Jiang Zhiyuan was a life-saving straw!
She was still so young. She should be enjoying a beautiful with the stars surrounding the moon. Was she going to stay in prison with an iron wall?!
How could Sheng An’ning accept this?!
“Grandfather! Grandfather, I beg you! An’ning really didn’t think that her careless mistake would cause such a big loss. Grandfather, please forgive An’ning, okay?”
“Grandfather, I really made a mistake! I won’t do this again! Grandfather, please believe me! Grandfather…”
As Sheng An’ning spoke, the tears in her eyes could no longer be controlled and flowed out teardrop after teardrop. Her usually beautiful face was now full of tears and she looked miserable.
“Grandfather, it’s An’ning’s fault! It’s An’ning’s fault. An’ning is promising you that she won’t do this again, okay?”
Sheng An’ning’s eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Jiang Zhiyuan pitifully. She suddenly hugged Jiang Zhiyuan’s leg so tightly that her fingertips were turning white.
Jiang Zhiyuan gazed deeply at the girl kneeling in front of him. There were too many emotions mixed in his aged eyes.
There was disappointment, heartache, sadness, and even some unconcealable guilt and regret.
He had once promised Sheng An’ning’s grandfather that he would take good care of this girl, but now, he was going back on his word.
The reason why Sheng An’ning had become like this was because the Jiang family had pampered her too much since she was young. They had not been strict with her, which resulted in today’s bitter outcome.
“An’ning, it’s not that grandfather doesn’t want to forgive you, but what you’ve done this time has already crossed grandfather’s line.”
There was a hint of exhaustion in Jiang Zhiyuan’s aged voice, but his tone was firm. It was obvious that he had already made up his mind and couldn’t be swayed by Sheng An’ning’s plea.
When Jiang Zhiyuan’s words fell into her ears, Sheng An’ning’s eyes widened. She couldn’t believe that Jiang Zhiyuan was so heartless!
She bit her teeth and her body instantly stiffened.
“Grandfather, do you really have the heart to personally lock An’ning up in prison?”
Sheng An’ning looked up at Jiang Zhiyuan. Her tears fell like broken beads, soaking Jiang Zhiyuan’s clothes.
Hearing Sheng An’ning’s words, Jiang Haoxuan realized how serious the situation was. He gritted his teeth and knelt down beside Sheng An’ning.
He had already recognized Sheng An’ning’s character. However, Jiang Haoxuan still couldn’t watch the girl he had always loved have the rest of her life ruined.
“Grandfather, please reconsider!”
Sheng An’ning saw Jiang Haoxuan kneeling beside her and looked a little surprised. She held back her tears and called out Jiang Haoxuan’s name in a sad voice.
“Haoxuan, it’s my fault…”
Sheng An’ning sniffled. Her eyes were red and her pale face looked forbearing and sorrowful.
Jiang Haoxuan was a little upset. Seeing Sheng An’ning crying like a baby, he finally reached out and patted Sheng An’ning’s back.
Although Jiang Haoxuan didn’t say anything, it was obvious that he was trying to comfort Sheng An’ning. Sheng An’ning was delighted, but her expression turned sadder.
She was crying so hard that she couldn’t speak. It was as if Meng Jiangnu was crying for the Great Wall.
Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan stood aside indifferently. They felt that what was happening was just a farce.
If it was useful to pretend to be weak and miserable, who would sympathize with those who were dragged down by Sheng An’ning and who even lost their lives?!
Jiang Zhiyuan rubbed the area between his eyebrows tiredly. He glanced at Jiang Haoxuan and Sheng An’ning who were kneeling in front of him and slowly waved his hand. His tone became a little lonely.
“Get up…”
Sheng An’ning wiped away her tears. She knew that Jiang Zhiyuan was soft-hearted. The joy in her heart acc.u.mulated, but she didn’t dare to show it. She stopped crying loudly and some crystals sparkled in her eyes again.
“Grandfather, are you forgiving me now? If you don’t forgive me, I won’t get up…”
Sheng An’ning asked carefully. Her usually gentle voice was now a little hoa.r.s.e. Her eyes were full of tears, and she looked like a person made of crystal. If she was not careful, she would be smashed to pieces.
Hearing Sheng An’ning’s words, Jiang Zhiyuan closed his eyes tiredly.
“What’s the use of me forgiving you? Can the dead be resurrected? Will those criminals stop their evil footsteps?”
Hearing this, Sheng An’ning felt a dull pain in her heart. She understood that Jiang Zhiyuan was determined not to forgive her.
Sheng An’ning gritted her teeth and fell to the ground, her head hitting the floor with a loud thud. It was obvious that he was serious!
Kowtow and self-harm?
Su Wan’s pupils contracted. She was shocked by Sheng An’ning!
She had never seen a woman like Sheng An’ning who could go crazy at any time!
Jiang Zhiyuan was also shocked by Sheng An’ning. He quickly helped her up. Sheng An’ning’s face was full of tears and there was a purple bruise on her forehead.
Fortunately, there was no blood yet.
Jiang Zhiyuan sighed. Seeing Sheng An’ning like this gave him a headache.
“An’ning, it’s grandfather’s fault that you’ve become like this.”
Sheng An’ning quickly shook her head. Seeing the pity in Jiang Zhiyuan’s eyes, she tried to blame herself.
“It’s An’ning’s fault! It’s not grandfather’s fault.”
Jiang Zhiyuan patted the back of Sheng An’ning’s head, his old eyes darkening.
“An’ning, you have to take responsibility for your mistakes. It’s not that I don’t want to protect you, but this time you really…”
Sheng An’ning’s red nails dug into her palms, and the tears on her face were weak.
“Grandfather, what do you want to do with An’ning then?”
“Since it’s your first offense and you didn’t intend to kill, I’ll protect you this time. I won’t let you get sued.”
Sheng An’ning was overjoyed when she heard this. However, her next sentence instantly sank Sheng An’ning’s heart.
“But, you can’t stay in the Jiang family anymore…”
