Old Master Jiang gazed at Jiang Ling’er affectionately and replied, “Seeing you so well-behaved, how can I ever be angry?”

Seeing that the old man was still in the mood to joke, Jiang Ling’er relaxed even more. She quipped, “Grandpa, if you keep complimenting me like this, I might start flying.”

Old Master Jiang chuckled, “Thankfully, the bastard is Jiang Jun. If it were you,

I definitely wouldn’t be able to take it.”

Jiang Ling’er was taken aback. The original host held such a significant position in the old master’s heart. It was no wonder the old master had been hospitalized due to his anger for her previously.

Jiang Ling’er grinned and replied, “Grandpa, I’m relieved that you’re fine. When I saw you clutching your chest just now, 1 thought you couldn’t bear it.”

Old Master Jiang expressed gratitude, “It was nothing. I just felt fortunate that nothing happened to you, so I instinctively patted my heart. Who knew that you would misunderstand it.”

Jiang Hua joined in, his anxiety dissipating, “Dad, your reaction earlier scared both of us. Ling’er and I were most afraid that you won’t be able to take it.”

Old Master Jiang nodded and said, “Ling’er, if it weren’t for you, our Jiang Family might have gone through a major transformation. Grandfather thanks you.”

With that, Old Master Jiang shifted his attention to Jiang Hua and expressed his contentment, “Jiang Hua, I’m very glad that you took the initiative to speak up. If it had been someone else, 1 would have been disappointed.”

Jiang Hua and Jiang Ling’er exchanged glances, both relieved that they had acted promptly. If Jiang Jun or Lin Lin had informed the old master, the situation could have been much worse.

Seeing the father and daughter share a look, Old Master Jiang furrowed his brow and inquired, “What’s going on? Is there something else you haven’t told me?”

Jiang Hua hesitated for a moment before confessing, “Dad, I’m prepared to divorce Lin Lin.”

Old Master Jiang asked further, “Will Lin Lin agree to it?”

Jiang Hua replied nonchalantly, “Lin Lin isn’t foolish.”

Old Master Jiang’s expression turned serious as he warned, “She may not be foolish, but she won’t let you off easily. Does she have any specific requests?”

Jiang Hua nodded, “In addition to my shares in the company, we’ve divided one-third of our shared assets, including a house.”

Old Master Jiang raised an eyebrow, “A house as well? That’s quite audacious. Where did you find this house?”

Jiang Hua revealed, “It’s a newly rented villa in North City.”

Old Master Jiang chuckled, “You certainly have an eye for choosing a place. If you give her the house, don’t expect to receive a single cent. Tell her it’s for Ling’er’s sake and hope she’ll appreciate it.”

Jiang Hua agreed, “1 understand, Dad.”

Jiang Ling’er was surprised by the old master’s shrewdness. He wasn’t easy to deal with, but dealing with Lin Lin was necessary. Although Lin Lin had given birth to the original host, Lin Lin hadn’t treated her daughter well.

Old Master Jiang said affectionately, “Ling’er, the national competition is approaching. Do you feel confident?”

Jiang Ling’er replied humbly, “Grandpa, one can never be too sure, but I’m giving it my ail.”

Although her response sounded modest, both Jiang Hua and Old Master Jiang sensed her unwavering confidence.

Old Master Jiang gestured toward a nearby chessboard and suggested, “Jiang Hua, let’s play a game of chess.”

Jiang Hua nodded, agreeing to the game, and took a seat opposite the old man.

Jiang Ling’er stretched and joked, “You two enjoy your game. I’m heading back to my room.”

Old Master Jiang bid her goodnight, “Alright, make sure you get a good rest.”

Jiang Ling’er nodded and exited the room.

After Jiang Ling’er left, Jiang Hua and Old Master Jiang began their game of chess. After some time, Jiang Hua couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, are you really going to forgive me so easily? I’ve made such a big mistake.”

Old Master Jiang moved his chess piece and responded calmly, “Jiang Hua, you’re not foolish enough to pass someone else’s son as the eldest grandson of the Jiang family. I’m relieved that you’ve finally seen the truth.”

Jiang Hua felt puzzled and asked, “Dad, you say that so confidently. Is it because of Ling’er’s influence? Don’t you feel she’s different somehow? Why has she changed so much?”

Old Master Jiang looked at the chessboard and said, “To be honest, I don’t understand either, but how stupid can my granddaughter be?”

Jiang Hua frowned and said awkwardly, “Dad, 1 even suspected that Jiang Ling’er might not be my daughter, so 1 secretly did a test and the results prove that Ling’er is my daughter.”

Old Master Jiang said disdainfully, “You idiot, how can you say that Ling’er isn’t your daughter? She was tricked by Bai Xue and Jiang Jun and almost lost her life. She had no choice but to fight back. I guess Ling’er has thought it through and knows that it’s impossible to make those who bullied her stop. She has no choice but to fight back..”
