Chapter 180: Doormat
Jiang Xinyi rubbed her temples and took a deep breath. She still had a tough battle to fight.
“Mom.”
Sitting on the sofa, Grandmother Sheng hugged Sheng An and gave him a gentle shake. Seeing Jiang Xinyi coming in, she said with a cold face, “What’s your problem? Why did An’er run out alone?! You’ve given birth to two children but can’t even take care of An’er? What if something happened to him?”
Jiang Xinyi nodded. “Yes, I know that I can’t take care of him, so I plan to send him back to school soon.”
Hearing that, Sheng An was so anxious that he almost cried. “Grandma, I won’t go back!”
His eyes were grim.
He still remembered how that b*tch named Sheng Yang set him up, but his two cousins were there that day so he had to say something against his will.
But it didn’t mean that he had surrendered. He, Sheng An, had never been afraid of anyone!
Since he was framed, he must take revenge—a tooth for a tooth and an eye for eye. He would never just swallow this injustice!
“You must go back…” Jiang Xinyi had argued with Sheng An at home because of this earlier. That was why Sheng An sneaked out.
She knew Sheng An wasn’t as obedient as Sheng Yue. If he stayed home, he would be a time bomb. Who knew when he would cause trouble again?
Her husband, Sheng Tai, simply ignored the two children, and she still had a lot to do and didn’t have the time to solve the problem that Sheng An caused.
“Are you worthy of being his mother? In order to save trouble, you’ll just throw your son into a boarding school and ignore him. When I was young, my husband was busy with work but I still managed to bring up my two sons and now they’re great!” What Grandmother Sheng liked most was boasting about her old “achievements”.
Unlike Kang Weizhen, Jiang Xinyi didn’t have a powerful family, so she didn’t dare to refute Grandmother Sheng. “I know I’m not as capable as you, Mom…”
“Then learn from me! How can you just shun your responsibilities?” Grandmother Sheng stroked Sheng An’s face. “I don’t think An’er makes any progress at that boarding school. On the contrary, he’s lost a lot of weight. Can outsiders take better care of your son than you?”
“Mom, professionals are good at their rjobs and it hasn’t been long since An’er went to boarding school. It will take time for him to make progress…”
Grandmother Sheng interrupted her coldly: “That’s enough. I’ve made up my mind. An’er is not going to any boarding school anymore. Go through the transfer procedures for him and allow him to come back.”
Sheng An triumphantly made a gesture of victory at Jiang Xinyi behind Grandmother Sheng.

Jiang Xinyi took Sheng An back home. Now she didn’t dare to scold or beat him. Otherwise… he would definitely complain to Grandmother Sheng.
Meanwhile Sheng Yue was still covering her face and sitting in the corner of the sofa, crying loudly.
“Sheng Yue, from today onwards, I’ll be back. Don’t use your piano room anymore. It will be a game room for me and my friends,” Sheng An announced triumphantly.
Sheng Yue raised her head abruptly, her eyes still scarlet. She looked at Jiang Xinyi in disbelief. “Mom, you want this guy to come back?”
Jiang Xinyi was annoyed. She was Sheng An’s mother and Sheng Tai’s wife, but she had no say in the Sheng family. “Sheng Yue, if you talk about your brother like this again, get the hell out.”
“…” Sheng Yue cried louder. Mom didn’t dare to say anything to Sheng An because he was backed by Grandma.
It was obviously Sheng An’s fault, but everyone treated her like a doormat.
