Madam’s Identities Shocks the Entire City Again

Chapter 3737: That Loveless Marriage Buried Everyone

“There’s a reason she did that. Her relationship with your grandfather was bad. Your grandfather did something and let her down, so she took revenge on your mother.”

“So she’s just incompetent in venting her anger.” Qiao Nian finally understood, and her eyes filled with ice. “She can’t win against the bully, so she bullied those weaker than her. Pfft, she’s really capable!”

Ji Lingfeng did not refute her. “The past is too complicated and involves the grudges of the previous generation. I can’t say who’s right and who’s wrong.”

“So what kind of grudge is it?” Qiao Nian grew impatient.

Ji Lingfeng saw the impatient expression on the girl’s cold face and moved his dry lips. “Your grandfather… was an outstanding person. He was extremely successful in all aspects… He could even be said to be a genius among geniuses who appeared out of nowhere. No one knew his background. They only knew he became famous in the illegal district and independent continent at 18. He quickly became the uncrowned king of the independent continent…”

Ji Lingfeng was shrouded in the light by the window, giving his silhouette a thin layer of light as he immersed himself in his memories.

“He was very strong, very powerful. But he was not a good person.”

What?

Qiao Nian frowned but did not comment.

Ji Lingfeng smiled lightly and continued, “His lifelong pursuit was to become stronger and reach a higher level. His talent and intelligence made him lack empathy for others.

“At that time, he had already dominated the independent continent and become its master. When expanding his sphere of influence, he inevitably encountered the reclusive families. Your grandfather had always been used to being domineering, so he fought with the reclusive families for a long time. He was also the first to challenge and force the reclusive families into a dead end.

“The reclusive families did not want to continue wasting time like that, so they negotiated with him and agreed to a series of conditions. At the same time, the reclusive families proposed a marriage alliance to consolidate their relationship.”

“He chose your grandmother.” Ji Lingfeng sighed.

Qiao Nian interrupted him expressionlessly. “She’s not my grandmother.”

Very determined.

No room for negotiation.

Ji Lingfeng looked at her. “At that time, your… Nie Qingru had a boyfriend who she had been dating for many years. The two of them were childhood sweethearts and their relationship was so deep that it was at the stage of discussing marriage. Of course, she didn’t agree to her family arranging for her to marry a stranger, so she went on a hunger strike to protest and insisted on breaking off the engagement.

“The marriage between uniting the independent continent and Continent M was already a sure thing. The Nie family wouldn’t allow her to do this, and your grandfather wouldn’t allow her to do this either.”

“So what did he do?” Qiao Nian thought of the old photo carefully hidden and looked at him with dark eyes.

The corner of Ji Lingfeng’s mouth twitched as he slowly continued in a deep voice, “He captured her boyfriend and gave Nie Qingru an ultimatum. In the end, Nie Qingru compromised and got married in a wedding dress. They held the wedding in front of everyone.

“There was no love in this wedding. Including your grandfather, everyone treated the marriage as a transaction. After that, because this marriage involved the two continents, even if they didn’t love each other, they couldn’t divorce. She was imprisoned in the independent continent. It wasn’t until your grandfather passed away that she looked for the man again. But she discovered he died in the first year of her marriage…”
