After flirting with me wrongly, my scumbag uncle pinched my waist and pampered me fiercely

Chapter 1226 The Blame Lies with Jiang Manman

Jiang Manman was already asleep, but the noise outside was so loud that she got out of bed and saw the people downstairs.

"Dad," Jiang Manman called out.

"Manman, why are you up so late? Go back to sleep." Jiang's father didn't want Jiang Manman to have any contact with Liang Chen; he didn't like Liang Chen at all.

He looks like he's looking for trouble. What is he trying to do? His wife has warned him so many times before, but he's brainless and doesn't listen. Who can he blame now?

“Jiang Manman! You knew about this all along, didn’t you? Were you involved?” Liang Chen downstairs asked, his eyes bloodshot.

He felt that this was done by Jiang Manman and Huo Yanchen, otherwise it would not have happened so suddenly. It was only because he had just offended Jiang Manman these past two days that this incident occurred.

This made him unable to help but suspect that Jiang Manman might be involved in this matter.

"What kind of talk is that, Liang Chen? My Jiang family is not a place for you to run wild. Get out of here right now. I'll let it slide for the sake of our years as neighbors. It's your own fault. What does it have to do with my daughter? And now you dare to come here and interrogate me? Get out!" Jiang's father was furious.

"Jiang Manman, are you and Huo Yanchen in cahoots to frame me?"

"How dare you talk like that? What do you mean by 'colluding with each other'? Who did this to you?" Jiang's father couldn't stand it anymore, and he even wanted to hit him.

His precious daughter is so wonderful, he wouldn't allow someone like that to insult her.

Jiang's father used to think Liang Chen was a good person, having watched him grow up, and that he and Manman were a good match. Now he realizes that he was completely wrong. It's like knowing someone's face but not their heart. Luckily, he didn't end up with his daughter, or there would have been a big problem.

Jiang Manman came down and said, "Dad, go to sleep. I'll talk to Liang Chen."

"No, I absolutely cannot let you be with this scumbag." Jiang's father frowned deeply; his opinion of Liang Chen had plummeted.

Jiang Manman said, "Dad, I'm an adult now, and I can handle my own affairs."

After thinking for a moment, Jiang's father released Liang Chen's hand and said, "You two chat first, I'll go cut some fruit for you."

Jiang Manman knew exactly what her father was thinking. What was he doing eating fruit in the middle of the night, especially with servants around? It wasn't his place to cut it himself.

I was just worried, so I wanted to keep an eye on things from a distance.

Jiang's father went to the kitchen, and Jiang Manman said to Liang Chen, "Come in."

Previously, Liang Chen and Jiang Manman were considered equals, but recently, Liang Chen became eager to become more outstanding and surpass Jiang Manman, wanting Jiang Manman to admire her, so she became impatient with Jiang Manman in various ways.

But now, Jiang Manman is very natural, while Liang Chen is not natural at all.

Jiang Manman asked, "Did you need something from me?"

Liang Chen said, "You should know what happened at my company, right?"

Jiang Manman shook her head: "I don't know."

"Don't lie to me. How could you not know? Are you still laughing at me right now?"

Jiang Manman said, "First, you have to think of yourself as a joke before others will laugh at you."

That one sentence left Liang Chen speechless, unsure of what to say next.

Liang Chen asked, "Were you aware of this?"

"Which matter? Is it about the other company, or the sudden financial crisis? Or is it that you did something so stupid and don't know how to repent, instead of finding a solution yourself, you come here to cause trouble for me?"

"Manman, can you honestly say you bear absolutely no responsibility for this?"

Jiang Manman almost laughed in anger upon hearing this: "Is that so? Why don't you tell me what responsibility I have?"

Jiang Manman didn't know what responsibility she could possibly have. Wasn't it a bit too stupid for Liang Chen to try to shift the blame now? Even if he did put everything on her, what good would it do? What could it change?

Can we bring back the person who ran off with the money, or can we restore Liang Chen's company to its former state?

Liang Chen should be looking for the person who ran off with his money, not for her.

Liang Chen said, "You clearly knew this company had problems, so why didn't you stop me? Didn't you just want to see me make a fool of myself? Are you satisfied now that things have turned out this way?"

“Jiang Manman, we’ve known each other for so many years. I know you don’t like me. You think I’m pestering you. You like Huo Yanchen, but you can’t do this to me. Do you know how much I’ve lost this time? If the Liang Group goes bankrupt, it won’t do you any good either. This must be Huo Yanchen’s doing. Go find Huo Yanchen and tell him to stop and make up for the money. Then I will definitely not hold you responsible.”

When Jiang Manman heard these words, she didn't know whether she was crazy or Liang Chen was crazy. How could he say such things and even want Huo Yanchen to pay for it? Where did he get the nerve?

Jiang Manman said, "Liang Chen, are you out of your mind? Have you forgotten everything about how I tried to persuade you and how you scolded me? You said you were determined to do this project, that you would take full responsibility, and that you guaranteed there would be no problem. You even thought I was lying to you just to compete with you."

"Now that you've gotten yourself into trouble, you don't want to take responsibility for your actions, do you? I used to think you were a man, but now it seems you're not even a man."

“I know you want to compare yourself to Huo Yanchen in everything, but you should take a good look in the mirror and see where you are inferior to him. Huo Yanchen is at least not as impulsive as you. If he encountered something like this, he would never blame others. He would find a way to solve it himself. You don’t understand what kind of person Huo Yanchen is at all. You only look at him maliciously behind his back. You are not even as good as one of his fingers!”

"Even when he was eighteen, he wouldn't have done something like this. Have you lost your mind? This is the last time I'll talk to you like this. If we meet again, don't bother greeting me. I have nothing in common with idiots."

Jiang Manman had a good scolding. Last time she went to see Liang Chen, she even went to his company to remind him, but her good intentions were taken for granted.

Seeing Liang Chen like this, Jiang Manman felt both regret and relief.

Some people start too high, and they don't know where they went wrong until they stumble and fall.

However, it is clear that Liang Chen has not yet realized his mistake.

In the kitchen not far away, Jiang's father, who had been listening intently, heard Jiang Manman's praise of Huo Yanchen, and his heart turned to ice.

He tried his best to stop Jiang Manman from being with Huo Yanchen, but it seemed to have little effect. Compared to Liang Chen, Huo Yanchen's image seemed even more towering and majestic.
