But what’s strange is that Lan Peizhi actually turned a blind eye to Jiang Chen’s boundary-crossing behavior.
This is a qualified parent.
No spoiling.
No favoritism.
She was the one who entrusted her brother to the other party’s care, so she shouldn’t interfere excessively.
"Oh!"
The forr Martial Saint would never admit mistakes, always second to none, even if he did sothing wrong, he would still hold his head high, but now his values have shifted. Hearing Jiang Chen’s order, he imdiately went upstairs without a word.
Li Shuru watched, feeling a bit embarrassed, after all, the real sister was there.
In contrast, Mr. Jiang, like Lan Peizhi, remained calm, finding nothing improper.
"You can’t just talk nicely?"
Li Shuru held her boyfriend’s arm and whispered.
"That kid took your bonsai and gave it to a female classmate."
"Ah..."
Li Shuru was stunned.
Lan Peizhi smiled faintly.
Catching the smile at the corner of this legendary woman’s mouth, Li Shuru quickly realized and slapped soone, "Even if the Martial Saint likes to spout nonsense, he learned it from you."
"How long have I been with him?"
Jiang Chen imdiately defended.
"Whose responsibility is it then? I haven’t spent that much ti with him either."
Then, both of their gazes simultaneously moved to Tanki Liuli, who stood aside.
Alright.
Innocent people got dragged in.
Poor Daoist Duanmu hasn’t done anything to anyone, so why take the bla now?
Actually, if you’re talking about today’s matter, Daoist Duanmu does have so responsibility.
Indifference is sotis a cri in itself.
If she were willing to protect the Martial Saint, would Lan Peizhi have to make a trip herself? With her skills, handling soone should be a breeze.
Before jumping out the window to escape, the Martial Saint did consider this issue. However, after careful deliberation, he still chose the safest way to protect himself.
If you receive favors, you can’t complain; although Sister Liuli is the elder sister’s junior, Jiang Chen is now her "patron," supporting her food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. How could he ask Sister Liuli to be troubled with the ss he made?
"Has Jin Se contacted you?"
Lan Peizhi shifted the topic, much to soone’s relief, but hearing Cao Jinse’s na, his heart skipped a beat.
What does this an?
Could it have spread to Kyoto?
The Martial Saint is one thing, at worst it’s good intentions gone wrong, but you, Lan Peizhi, wouldn’t be so bored, right?
"No, the last ti I contacted her was when I ca back from Korea."
"Seems she hasn’t had a chance to tell you yet."
Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
It’s definitely not about his privacy issues.
"What’s wrong?"
"Old Mr. Fang is probably not going to make it."
Jiang Chen’s expression turned serious.
"Is there really no way?"
Lan Peizhi looked at him, "Can you bring soone back to life?"
Jiang Chen glanced at today’s skill-showing Tanki Liuli and joked, "Maybe she can try."
"Liuli is not a doctor," Li Shuru interjected.
If even "resurrecting the dead" is being used to describe it, it implies it’s beyond recovery. Given Old Mr. Fang’s status, he certainly enjoyed the world’s most advanced dical conditions, yet despite technological advancents, one can’t counter the natural laws of life and death.
"I recently went to Japan to attend a funeral."
Jiang Chen sighed slightly.
He had grievances with the Fang Family, but towards the founding elder of the Fang Family, who clearly had deep enmities with him yet still t him peacefully, he maintained a kind of objective respect.
The downfall of descendants can’t be entirely blad on the elders. Most tis, it’s the descendants who have failed the honor accumulated by the older generation.
"Jinse probably didn’t tell you because she didn’t want to trouble you."
Jiang Chen gave a wry smile, then looked at her and asked, "Do you think I should go?"
"That’s your decision."
Lan Peizhi coldly refused, offering no advice.
Jiang Chen showed contemplation.
Not knowing what they were talking about, Li Shuru remained silent. She tily got up, "You guys chat, I’ll go check on the Martial Saint."
She smiled politely at Lan Peizhi.
Lan Peizhi watched her go upstairs.
"Where’s Fang Jun?"
"Almost eligible for parole."
Jiang Chen nodded.
It’s not always best to settle enmities.
You can’t always have conflicts that require completely destroying the opponent.
Giving others leeway is giving yourself a way out.
"Ti flies."
Jiang Chen remarked, full of aning.
According to Fang Jun’s sentence, even if an ordinary person in there worked tirelessly, it wouldn’t be possible to get out this year.
Parents, grandparents, their contributions to the descendants can’t be fully comprehended. Even death may be a sacrificial offering to the descendants.
"Fang Jun should thank you."
Lan Peizhi said sincerely.
An old person at ho is like a treasure.
This saying holds especially true for high-ranking families.
Many elderly are the stabilizing pillars of a family. If sothing happens to them, the entire family may instantly fall into turmoil. Based on Fang Jun’s behavior and actions before imprisonnt, if he hadn’t faced setbacks, once Old Mr. Fang was gone, without his protection, Fang Jun’s outco would only be worse.
Falling down might sotis just be a reminder that ahead lies an abyss.
"Don’t say that. He doesn’t have to thank , but he must thank his grandfather for loving him so."
It was a misunderstanding.
Lan Peizhi obviously didn’t co today to back up her brother.
"In the future, things like this, a phone call will suffice; no need to make a personal trip."
Jiang Chen said.
It’s as if he did the sa to Pei Yunxi this afternoon.
Truly not a bit hospitable.
"Using fists isn’t a good education thod. Convincing with reason is better."
Jiang Chen was taken aback by the words.
Did he hear wrong?
Convincing with reason.
These words actually ca out of Blood Guanyin’s mouth?
Before Jiang Chen could speak, Lan Peizhi already stood up.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen could only pause, "Liuli, see your senior sister out."
He understood how to command others, not moving himself, but directing soone else. However, watching TV for too long isn’t good and requires a bit of activity, lest soone becos a bespectacled couch potato...
Wait.
That’s not bad.
Pair it with so outfits.
Click.
Buffs were stacked to the max.
Tanki Liuli picked up the remote to pause the TV, then stood up and indeed followed Jiang Chen’s instructions to escort Lan Peizhi out.
They are clearly senior and junior sisters.
How did the close relationship seem twisted?
Having Tanki Liuli see off the guest wasn’t out of laziness. Jiang Chen had good intentions, hoping to give the two sisters more chances to chat and bond. After Tanki Liuli and Lan Peizhi went out, he went upstairs.
"Where’s Miss Lan?"
Rooftop garden.
Li Shuru actually went up to care for her bonsai.
"She’s gone."
Jiang Chen walked closer, "How’s that Martial Saint kid?"
"Doing your bidding, reflecting on his actions in his room."
"Reflecting on his actions? Really?"
"Weren’t you the one who told him to reflect? If you don’t believe it, check for yourself."
Specifically coming to check, they found none missing. Li Shuru said, "What did he do wrong to make you so angry, even drawing Miss Lan over."
"It’s better left unsaid."
Li Shuru continued watering the bonsai, genuinely fooled by soone again, changing the topic, "Who were you discussing with Miss Lan about being critically ill?"
"A person who even state dia would send a notice for."
Li Shuru showed no surprise.
"Then you should go."
Jiang Chen paused, then smiled and asked, "Really?"
Li Shuru probably didn’t know the complicated entanglents involved and only heard half of it before heading upstairs. While watering, she said, "The Jianghu isn’t about fighting and killing, it’s about human relationships."
Imitating the tone from TV.
Seems she’s been subtly influenced by Tanki Liuli.
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but smile, hugging his girlfriend’s flexible waist from behind, "President Li’s perspective is getting broader."
"Stop. Are you trying to kill with flattery?"
"No. Sincerely ant it."
The watering Li Shuru suddenly paused, being hugged from behind, yet not struggling, she softly spoke, "Can your body still handle it?"
"..."
Could she have also seen that examination report?
