Chapter 798: Chapter 798: How to Be a Dad? You Don’t Even Care About Your Child!
Jiang Bufan sniffed hard and took a step back.
"Who are you, and why do you know us?"
Jiang Mingchuan was both annoyed and amused. "You don’t recognize me? I’m your dad!"
Jiang Bufan looked at him in shock, then glanced at Jiang Yan, and pushed the man away.
"You are not our dad. My brother said that he is the dad!"
Jiang Mingchuan, Jiang Yan: "....."
The looks from the crowd were nearly killing them.
"What’s wrong with this family? They don’t even recognize their own kid?"
"It’s obvious they don’t care about family. They don’t even recognize their own children. Sigh, what a sin."
"Exactly. I heard the legitimate wife is still lying inside, and this one next to them is the mistress!"
....
"What are you even talking about!" Jiang Yan flung his coffee aside and squatted in front of the two little tykes. "Hey, look carefully. I’m Jiang Yan, your big brother, this girl is my biological sister, your biological sister, and the guy next to her is my uncle, he’s your real dad. Don’t just call anyone dad outside!"
Jiang Bufan’s face flushed red in an instant. Just as he was about to say something, Jiang Buchen started crying loudly behind him.
"Brother, that weird uncle is scary. Let’s go find mom. I’m scared wuwuwu."
Jiang Bufan quickly hugged his brother. "Don’t be scared; I’ll take you to mom right now."
When he saw the two stumbling off, Jiang Mingchuan became even more anxious and hurriedly dragged them back, one in each hand.
"Stop running around. Come back with me right now."
The brothers cried even louder.
The bystanders, especially the aunties who had been watching earlier, wouldn’t let him off easily. They grabbed Jiang Mingchuan, accusing him of child trafficking and threatened to call the police.
In the end, it was Jiang Li who came forward with the family’s household registration book and a photo with everyone together, finally putting an end to the farce.
But as everyone dispersed, a group of aunties still glared disdainfully at Jiang Mingchuan as he walked away, cursing.
"How can you be a dad? You can’t even keep an eye on your own kids!"
"Exactly, he must be the kind who’s never home. His own children don’t even recognise him."
"Sigh, his poor wife, stuck with such a husband. No wonder she’s in the hospital."
On New Year’s Eve, Jiang Mingchuan, who was scolded for no reason: "...."
Fine, for the sake of the children, he would endure it!
Standing at the back, Jiang Li remained silent the whole time but cast a meaningful look at Jiang Buchen before leaving.
...
Lin Manru had been waiting in the hall for a long time without seeing anyone. Just as she was about to call to inquire about the situation, she saw Jiang Mingchuan and Jiang Yan coming back, each carrying a child.
She almost immediately recognized that it was Bufan and Buchen. Seeing the blood stains and their little red frozen faces, Lin Manru’s face was full of distress.
"Ah, why did you bring the kids out in such cold weather? Where’s Wanzhi? Did you find her?"
Holding Jiang Buchen, Jiang Yan snorted coldly. "Who wanted to carry them? It’s because they ran off and almost got abducted!"
Lin Manru was startled. "What happened?"
Seeing that Jiang Yan really didn’t know how to hold a child, she reached out to take the little dumpling into her arms.
The moment she took him, Jiang Buchen’s leg swept hard across Jiang Yan’s face, causing him to gasp in pain on the spot.
"You—"
He was just glaring when he saw Jiang Buchen’s pitiful little face and immediately lost his anger.
What was he doing getting mad at a four-year-old? It wasn’t on purpose.
With that thought, Jiang Yan could only rub his already ruined face and step aside.
It was Jiang Li who handed him a band-aid. "You alright?"
Jiang Yan opened his arms wide and just hugged the person.
"Little sister, it turns out you’re the one who cares for me the most!"
Jiang Li: "...."
"Get lost."
Lin Manru held the child tightly in her arms.
Jiang Buchen still had tear stains on his face, but unexpectedly, he recognized her at first glance and called out "Great Aunt" in a soft voice.
That "Great Aunt" nearly melted Lin Manru’s heart, and she quickly embraced the child, covering his cold little face with her hands.
"Oh, Buchen actually remembers Great Aunt, it seems my affection for you wasn’t in vain."
Beside them, Jiang Ming Chuan was starting to question his life.
How could the child recognize his sister-in-law but not him?!
Seeing the devastation in his embrace, Jiang Bufan hesitated before speaking up.
"Uncle, don’t worry, I don’t recognize anyone, because my brother is much smarter than me."
Jiang Ming Chuan: "...."
Is this really his son?
He corrected him seriously, "It’s Daddy, not Uncle."
"Okay, Uncle."
...
In the hospital room, Meng WanZhi finally woke up from a long coma.
Meng Xuezhi saw her open her eyes and hurried over with concern.
"Sister, you finally woke up, that’s great, you don’t know how worried I was."
Meng WanZhi opened her mouth to speak, but her throat was so dry she couldn’t utter a word. She could only grab Meng Xuezhi’s hand with her eyes wide open.
"The, the children...."
"Oh, don’t worry, the children are fine. We were lucky to survive the crash into the mountain. Only you and the driver were injured in the front; I and the two little ones are unscathed. Rest assured, the kids are being looked after by the nurses."
Meng WanZhi finally relaxed and let out a sigh of relief.
Meng Xuezhi sat by the bed and let out a long sigh before becoming indignant.
"Sister, what’s with the Jiang Family? You rushed back during the New Year’s just to have a reunion meal with them, and they didn’t even send someone to pick you up, but what’s worse, they haven’t shown up even after the accident? I’ve called them, and now it’s midnight, and there’s still no sign of them."
"To be honest, you shouldn’t have married that Jiang Ming Chuan to begin with. What’s the use of having a little money? When trouble comes, they’re nowhere to be seen. They haven’t cared about you in so long, who knows where he’s off enjoying himself!"
Meng WanZhi was exhausted and didn’t make a sound in response to these words, she just silently turned her head away and let a few tears fall.
Suddenly, the door to the hospital room opened, and the nurse’s voice came in.
"Meng Xuezhi, right? Your family is looking for you."
Meng Xuezhi by the bed hadn’t recovered yet when she saw the nurse bringing a group of people in.
Leading them was Jiang Ming Chuan.
Seeing Meng WanZhi lying on the hospital bed, he paused for a moment, put down the child, and walked over.
"Are you okay?"
Meng WanZhi turned her head away, unwilling to look at him, but Jiang Ming Chuan clearly saw resentment in her sidelong glance.
Because of this, his reaching hand also froze mid-air.
Jiang Buchen struggled out of Lin Manru’s arms and ran straight to the bedside, tearfully calling out "Mommy."
Jiang Bufan also ran over.
"Mommy, Mommy, are you all right?"
Meng WanZhi lovingly stroked the heads of the two little ones.
"Mom, Mommy is fine... cough cough cough, are you two okay? Where, where did you run off to?"
Jiang Bufan was about to explain, but Jiang Buchen next to him started crying again, "Wuwuwu, Mommy, I’m so glad you’re okay, Chenchen is so heartbroken...."
