Mo Lan got so startled and annoyed by what Jing Zhongxiu said that her voice and hands started trembling with anger as she spoke. “You…… you don’t have any regard left for me now, do you? Yes, I don’t have the family name, but I am your mother. I gave you life! Is this how you talk to me now? What was the point of bringing you in the world then? Are you wishing for Ran’s and my demise right now?”


  Jing Zhongxiu was even more furious than Mo Lan at the moment. He wanted to punch Jing Yiran to death. He would have given him a fatal kick but was able to hold back thanks to his legendary self-control.

  He still had a touch of sensibility left in him otherwise he would have killed this son of his by now.

  But he was sure that he didn’t want Jing Yiran to appear in front of him ever again nor did he want him to stay at Family Jing, any further.

  His birth had been a big mistake!

  If he was not driven out of Family Jing now, Jing Yiran would ruin the family sooner or later!

  “I have always respected you and have never said anything improper.” Jing Zhongxiu stared at his mother. Right now, his heart was colder than his expression. He respected his mother due to their relationship but he didn’t have a strong bond with her like a mother and son should have.

  It hadn’t been deep enough to begin with but after his wife, Zhao Qing died, Jing Zhongxiu barely even spoke with Mo Lan. As a result, their relationship worsened day by day.

  “But it is different today! I want this bastard out of Family Jing, but you want to throw me out of Family Jing instead. I have done nothing wrong and you have no right to drive me away. I am simply speaking the truth. You are not qualified enough to drive the heir of Family Jing out of the family, whether it is me or Yichen. But if you try and stop me, I do have the right to throw you out of Family Jing.”


  Mo Lan’s heart trembled when she heard his words.

  “Nonsense!” Mo Lan shouted. “Are you starting a rebellion? You are doing whatever you want because you hate us both. If you are angry about Zhao Qing’s death, then just hold me responsible. It was my fault. Ran had nothing to do with it!”


  Jing Zhongxiu’s face changed when Mo Lan mentioned Zhao Qing.

  Even Jing Yichen who was standing behind Mo Lan became alert. His eyes were like frozen chips of ice.

  How dare she mention his mother?

  His mother would not have died if she had not acted willfully at that time.

  Zhao Qing lived as the agony in the deepest part of Jing Zhongxiu’s heart. No one dared to mention her name in front of him. Jing Yichen had gotten slapped by him because he mentioned Zhao Qing when they argued about the inheritance some time back.

  To make matters worse, Mo Lan was the one responsible for Zhao Qing’s death!

  With fingers tightly clenched together, Jing Zhongxiu tried really hard to control himself.

  “You know very well how Qing died. I don’t hate you, but myself for not killing Zhang Rong at that time. I have always taught Yichen that he should be ruthlessly decisive, but I myself failed to be one. Otherwise, this situation would not have arisen. My mercy towards her back then caused my wife’s death and made my son lose his mother. Due to this, Family Jing was torn apart!”


  Jing Zhongxiu’s anger burst out like a volcano. He no longer tried to conceal his real emotions. Instead, he said coldly, “Now both me and my son are walking corpses. We are zombies without emotions. Are you happy now? Hehe, it is not your fault, it is my fault. I can’t blame my mother as a son now, can I?”


  The meaning behind his sarcastic words was clear to everyone in the room.

  Mo Lan had always felt guilty because of Zhao Qing’s death. But at this moment, she was just irritated with Jing Zhongxiu which superseded her guilt. Her motive was to protect her precious grandson from being driven out of Family Jing.

  She showed her most intimidating side and said in a loud voice, “That is history. I can leave if you want me to, but Ran must not leave Family Jing. He is a part of this bloodline and will always be part of Family Jing.”


  It had been she who brought up the past, but now she didn’t want it to be mentioned anymore. Her words were becoming more and more unreasonable.

  Jing Zhongxiu sneered. “I have already told you that I am the man of the house, not you. This bastard must go out of Family Jing because I will not tolerate a traitor like him! Also, I will get back every small thing that belongs to Family Jing. And he is going to be left with nothing.”


  Jing Yichen had no idea about what was the issue until he heard Jing Zhongxiu calling Jing Yiran “a traitor”. He frowned and then looked at a pale faced Jing Yiran who stood in complete silence.

  Jing Yiran felt Jing Yichen’s gaze at him. He looked at him, showing a touch of irony and fierceness before looking away.

  Jing Yichen frowned even more.

  He found his expressions strange under the circumstances.

  Before Jing Yichen had time to think deeper, Mo Lan’s words shocked him.

  “Why must you be so fierce towards Ran? He just sold some shares. Why is it such a big deal? Chen has enough shares to control the entire enterprise. Selling a few shares won’t pose any threat to him. Family Jing won’t collapse because of this. You are just exaggerating!”


  Jing Yiran had sold shares of Jingsheng?

  How dare he!

  And Mo Lan was still saying that it wasn’t a big deal?

  Jing Zhongxiu and Jing Tianyuan had spent so much effort in building Jingsheng.

  Of course Jingsheng would be affected if Jing Yiran sold 20% of the company’s shares. It would become the biggest weakness of Jingsheng.

  Jing Yichen pulled Jing Yiran out of Mo Lan’s arms without hesitation, threw him on the ground and crushed him under his feet.
