Seeing that she couldn’t get any useful information from Jiang Conghe, Chiang Qing lost her patience, stood up, and prepared to leave. She was naive; if he were truly as shrewd as he claimed, how could he end up in such a predicament?
Perhaps he was indeed shrewd but overly arrogant, taking the so-called father-son relationship for granted, believing that Jiang Dafang genuinely wanted to acknowledge him as his father, thus trusting wholeheartedly. Yet he didn’t realize reality would slap him hard in the face.
Jiang Conghe saw her about to leave and quickly called her: "Where are you going?"
Chiang Qing looked over, giving him a gaze as if he were a foolish idiot: "Of course I’m leaving. Do you really think I’m going to stay here and keep you company in prison?"
"Then when will you get Dad out?" Jiang Conghe looked at her with hope.
He had truly had enough of prison life. The people inside were inhumane, bullying him.
Chiang Qing burst into laughter and said, "Dad, my dear Dad, are you truly naive or just pretending? This is the sentence handed to you by the state. Do you think I have the power to get you out? Even if I could, would I really get you out?"
Jiang Conghe’s face fell, "What do you mean by this? I’m your father!"
"My father?" Chiang Qing sneered and said: "The moment you sent me to the asylum, my father was dead. You’re unworthy!"
"You..." Jiang Conghe became furious and said: "Do you think I wanted it this way? If it weren’t for your infatuation with that scoundrel Qi Taiguo, repeatedly making jokes, why would I have resorted to such a desperate measure? Our family’s situation today is all because of you, because you insisted on that bastard Qi Taiguo!"
Indeed, because of Chiang Qing, loving a man she shouldn’t love, he ended up in such a situation. Otherwise, his political career would have continued smoothly, without the recurring jokes and problems, leading to this disaster.
