Chapter 1575 Zheng Yan's Secret Exposed
"It won't happen again."
Jiang Tong said to Xu Miaomiao.
Although this is probably the umpteenth time this has happened.
Jiang Tong returned home, but Li Jingchen wasn't there; the children were.
Jiang Tong asked Jiang Mingyang, "Did Grandma come to see them today?"
"Yes, Mom, Grandma also bought us gifts, and she hugged me and Little Grey, and she also hugged Egg."
Jiang Mingyang said, "Grandma smiled very happily when she held Dandan."
Jiang Tong said, "When you and your brother were this small, your grandma was also very happy to hold you."
Jiang Mingyang snorted, "Don't lie to me, I didn't even know Grandma and Chestnut when I was a little over a year old!"
Jiang Tong smiled slightly, "You have a good memory."
In short, she was relieved to see that the child was doing well.
Even if Zheng Yan doesn't like her, it's good that she likes children. At least she doesn't have to worry about her hurting the children.
"Mom, why didn't you come home yesterday?"
"I went shopping with your godmother. We shopped so late that I slept at your godmother's house. I bought a lot of things."
When Jiang Tong returned, she had the nanny take everything to the storage room.
Jiang Mingyang tilted his head and asked, "Mom, did you buy a gift for Chestnut while you were shopping?"
Jiang Tong said, "I bought him a pair of socks."
Jiang Mingyang said, "What? There's only one pair of socks."
Jiang Tong: "He doesn't lack anything. We buy him scarves, but he won't wear them. We buy him clothes, but he always wears custom-made ones."
Li Jingchen is also resistant to the cold. Even though it's already the end of October, no matter how cold it is, he only wears the scarf she knitted for him.
"Mom, what gift are you going to give Chestnut for his birthday?"
"I haven't thought about it yet. What, have you thought about it?" Jiang Tong asked Jiang Mingyang.
Jiang Mingyang chuckled and whispered something in Jiang Tong's ear, "I want it like this..."
Jiang Tong listened quietly, her eyes softening.
After Jiang Mingyang finished speaking, he said, "How was it? Dad will definitely like our efforts."
Jiang Tong smiled and said, "Well, let's give him a surprise then."
Jiang Mingyang and Jiang Tong gave each other a high five. "Okay!"
……
Time flies, and November is just around the corner.
Zheng Yan was supposed to come back on the Double Ninth Festival, but she hasn't been back these past few days. Jiang Tong hasn't asked Li Jingchen's mother whether she wants to continue living here or go back abroad.
After all, she's his mother.
Jiang Tong turned a blind eye, as long as it didn't affect her and her child's life.
Zheng Hong has been released from prison.
Jiang Tong didn't know at first.
Jiang Tong heard about this from Xu Miaomiao.
Zheng Hongming was sentenced to two years, but she has only served a little over a year.
Xu Miaomiao said, "I heard from Xiaobai that his mother was released on parole. It seems that the law stipulates that if a person has a fixed-term imprisonment sentence without serious misconduct, they can apply for parole as long as they have served half of their original sentence."
Jiang Tong nodded, "Zheng Hong should be eligible, provided she performs well."
I remember Zheng Hong was tricked by Lü Bingyu into vouching for her, and then the scandal broke, which led to her going to jail.
Xu Miaomiao said, "Xiao Bai's mother must have followed the prison rules and behaved well to be eligible for parole. I thought you knew about her release!"
Jiang Tong didn't know.
She felt that Li Jingchen should know about this.
However, Li Jingchen did not tell her.
Perhaps this is why Zheng Yan has stayed in the Southern Capital all this time?
Jiang Tong said, "So now you and Xiaobai can be together, right? Didn't you say you couldn't live without him? Did Zheng Hong agree?"
"Sigh," Xu Miaomiao said angrily, "Zheng Hong told me to give up on this idea."
Jiang Tong said, "Since she's said that, you should give up on that idea. Don't rush into marrying Xiaobai."
Xu Miaomiao fell silent. "I just can't stand other men."
Jiang Tong asked, "Can't Gu Heng do it? You two have already exchanged contact information."
Xu Miaomiao said, "I confessed my feelings to Xiaobai on my WeChat Moments. Does he think I'm stupid? Why would he even chat with me?"
Jiang Tong didn't ask any more questions, and Xu Miaomiao got back to the main topic.
"By the way, I saw Zheng Hong yesterday. She didn't look well; she looked sallow and had lost a lot of weight. I think she must be sick."
Jiang Tong was taken aback. From Xu Miaomiao's description, Zheng Hong did indeed seem to be sick.
Since Xu Miaomiao had already told her, Jiang Tong couldn't just ignore it, so she briefly asked Li Jingchen.
That evening, Li Jingchen told Jiang Tong that it was true.
Zheng Hong was released on parole.
There's something Li Jingchen hasn't told Jiang Tong.
Zheng Hong was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer while in prison.
Although the lesion has been removed, he had a very bad experience inside and his recovery was not good.
Zheng Yan kept asking Li Jingchen about this matter.
Ning Fu also learned that Zheng Hong was sick and asked Li Jingchen when Zheng Hong would be released from prison, as she wanted to take care of her.
Jiang Tong said, "So that's how it is. That's why your aunt is sick, and your grandma is also worried about her."
Li Jingchen said, "In my heart, she is no longer my aunt. I haven't forgotten what she did to you."
He gazed at Jiang Tong.
"She has now promised to turn over a new leaf, but if she dares to contact you, I will be the first to not let her off the hook."
Jiang Tong said, "Her current illness is the greatest punishment for her."
I don't want to dwell on the past anymore.
Jiang Tong understood why Li Jingchen had been leaving early and returning late these past few days.
She also understood why he wanted to spend the holiday with his mother.
Two more days passed, and with Li Jingchen's birthday just around the corner, Jiang Tong kept her promise to her son and secretly prepared that surprise for him.
Jiang Tong needs to go to Shenzhen for a few days on a business trip because of a company event.
Li Jingchen also asked her to represent the Nandi Chamber of Commerce at a business summit.
He stayed in Nandi himself, saying he was dealing with his mother's affairs.
Jiang Tong's schedule is packed.
In order to get back as soon as possible, she compressed her trip into three days, hoping to return on Friday.
With two more days of preparation, we can properly celebrate Li Jingchen's birthday.
Despite the tight schedule, Jiang Tong still learned a lot.
She met celebrities and tycoons, and met many independent female entrepreneurs. Through their exchanges, she felt the power of strong people.
If Li Qinghe hadn't called her, she thought she might never have known that such a big thing had happened in her family.
She won't be back anytime soon...
Li Qinghe called Jiang Tong early in the morning.
"Sister-in-law, are you not in Nandi?"
"I'm on a business trip in Shenzhen, what's wrong?"
"There's something my older brother won't let us tell you."
Li Qinghe's voice choked with emotion.
“My older brother is probably afraid that you’ll worry or feel bad, but he’s on the verge of collapse… I think I still have to tell you.”
Jiang Tong's heart skipped a beat.
"What's wrong?! What happened?"
She had a bad feeling about her, and her heart started pounding.
