When Tang Beibei heard Rong Charter’s words, she felt as if a thorn had pierced through her heart. She was distracted from her reading several times.

Ruan Qi consoled her, “Why don’t 1 go with you to see your grandmother?”

“There’s no need. I’m reading.”

Although Tang Beibei said that, her eyes were still glazed over.

If anything happened to her grandmother, the nursing home would call her.

She tried her best to calm down and read her book, but she heard her phone vibrate.

She took out her phone and saw that it was a call from the nursing home.

She quickly answered the call. “Miss Tang, I have some bad news. Your grandmother is missing. We’ve looked for her everywhere but we still couldn’t find her.”

Tang Beibei stood up, tension filling her body.

“When did Grandma disappear?”

The nurse replied, “It’s been a few hours. She said she was going for a walk in the morning, but we didn’t see her at lunch and we couldn’t find her anywhere since.”

Tang Beibei quickly packed her things. Ruan Qi was worried and quickly followed her out of the library.

“Beibei, don’t panic. Maybe your grandmother went out to do something or look for someone. She’ll be back soon.”

“Grandma wouldn’t leave the nursing home unless something big happened. What Rong Chan’er said at lunchtime must have something to do with my grandmother’s sudden disappearance!”

Tang Beibei’s footsteps were flustered. When she arrived at the girls’ dormitory, she saw Rong Chan’er and ran over.

“Rong Chan’er, do you know where my grandmother is?”

“What does your grandmother’s whereabouts have to do with me?”

“You must know or you wouldn’t have said those things to me at lunchtime. Rong Chan’er, what do you want? My grandmother didn’t hurt you, so why did you disturb her?” Tang Beibei roared.

Rong Chan’er felt wronged and retreated timidly.

“Tang Beibei, how can you just accuse me? Although we are related, I don’t know your grandmother.”

Rong Chan’er’s voice raised as her eyes reddened.

“You’re the one who’s lived under our roof. My family has never asked you for a single cent, but you stole my sister’s man for money. Now you’re accusing me of disturbing your grandmother? Tang Beibei, what grudge is there between us that you have to treat me like this?”

When students walking by heard Rong Chan’er’s words, they stopped and hung around to watch the show.

Tang Beibei felt the critical gazes from the students around them. She suppressed her anger and asked again, “What did you do to my grandmother?”

“I haven’t even met your grandmother. Tang Beibei, don’t frame me.” Rong Chan’er said in a quivering voice.

An onlooking student couldn’t take it anymore and said, “Tang Beibei, that’s enough. You live under Rong Chan’er’s roof, yet you stole her sister’s man. Do you have any morals?”

“It’s not like you don’t have a family. Why do you have to live with the Rongs? The Rong family fed and clothed you. It’s one thing to not know how to repay their kindness, you still slander them? Your grandmother is missing. Go look for her. What does it have to do with Rong Chan’er?”

“Some people think that if they are good-looking and have good grades, everyone in the world will have to give in to them. It’s a crime if we don’t. This kind of person is mentally ill!”

“… Crazy. You’d better go find your grandmother instead of bullying Rong Chan’er here.”

The commentary around them got meaner and meaner. Ruan Qi couldn’t listen anymore.

“You people don’t even know what’s going on. Don’t just comment blindly. Go do your own things!”

Someone retorted immediately, “And you know what’s going on? You are with Tang Beibei so you are probably also a good-for-nothing!”

Ruan Qi wanted to retaliate, but Tang Beibei grabbed her arm and said, “Don’t argue with them. The most important thing now is to find my grandmother.”

Ruan Qi was furious. “You blabbermouths should all be taught a lesson!”

Tang Beibei looked at Rong Chan’er, who was pretending to be a lady, and asked again, “Rong Chan’er, tell me, where is my grandmother? I can agree to any condition you have!”

Rong Chan’er replied aggrievedly, “Tang Beibei, I really don’t know where your grandmother is. My sister has been so good to you. If you really admit your mistake, you should leave my sister’s man as a sign of remorse.”

Rong Chan’er had heard that Jiang Jingchen would likely recover from his illness. If the young master of the Jiang family recovered and joined the family business, wouldn’t Tang Beibei, the young mistress of the Jiang family, solidify her position?

If that happened, Tang Beibei would definitely show off her might to them. How could she tolerate that?

She must therefore put an end to this possibility and make Tang Beibei divorce the ugly Jiang Jingchen!

Tang Beibei chuckled when she heard Rong Chan’er continue to speak negatively about her.

“Rong Chan’er, if anything happens to my grandmother, I will make you regret it!”

Ignoring the gossip around them, Tang Beibei took Ruan Qi by the arm and walked away.

Rong Chan’er looked at the two of them, and her lips curled into a mocking smile.

Tang Beibei would make her regret it?

Oh, why did Tang Beibei think that she could talk to her like that? She was just a dog raised by the Rong family. She was married away to protect her sister. Did Tang Beibei think that she was better than Rong Chan’er now?

Rong Chan’er thought about the branded clothes Tang Beibei was wearing, the expensive diamond earrings on her ears, and the expensive necklace on her neck. She was crazy jealous!

Tang Beibei didn’t deserve these things which were meant for her sister!

When they walked out of the school gate, Ruan Qi saw Tang Beibei’s expression and knew that she was very worried about her grandmother.

“Beibei, don’t be overly anxious. I’ll go with you to the nursing home. If your grandmother is really missing, we’ll call the police.”

Tang Beibei calmed down after hearing Ruan Qi’s words of comfort. She nodded and headed for the train station.

“Beibei!”

Tang Beibei heard someone call her name and turned around in confusion. Her eyes widened in surprise.

“Grandma!”

She turned around and ran up to an old lady with white hair. She had a hunched back, and her face were filled with wrinkles. His turbid eyes stared at Tang Beibei unblinkingly.

“Grandma, why did you leave the nursing home? If you miss me, you can call me and I’ll come to you. There are so many cars on the road. You…”

“Slap!”

Ruan Qi covered her mouth in shock when she saw the old lady suddenly slap Tang Beibei.

Tang Beibei was also stunned as she covered her face in shock.

“Grandma, why did you hit me?”

“Tang Beibei, do you know your mistake?”

“Mistake? What mistake?”

“You’re vain and married someone else’s husband. Is this how I brought you up? Are you trying to follow your mother’s footsteps and ruin your life for a man?”

“No, I’m not!” Tang Beibei wanted to explain. “Grandma, that’s not what happened. Back then, I…”

“Enough, don’t quibble. Divorce that man!” Tang Beibei’s grandmother scolded.

“No, I won’t get a divorce. Grandma, you don’t understand this at all. You…”

“If you don’t get a divorce, I’ll beat you to death today!” Tang Beibei’s grandmother’s face was fierce. She raised her arm and started hitting Tang Beibei. Although she was old, she was quite strong.

“You wretched girl! Don’t think that I can’t control you because I’m old. Of all things, you learned to become just like your heartless mother.. Bastard, if you don’t get a divorce, I’ll beat you to death today so you won’t embarrass yourself again!”
