Tang Wan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "I didn’t expect this trick would actually work on Fourth Brother?"
"There’s always sothing that can conquer sothing else."

March in Pingjiang, the water is warm and the wind is clear, the air is infused with the slightly intoxicating scent of spring grass breaking through the soil.
When Tang Wan got up, the Tang elder had already taken Jiang Xiaowai out for a walk, Jiang Jinsang and Aunt Huang followed to the small park, a little one with a group of people attending to him, while Tang Yunxian had gone to the company early.
So when Tang Wan arrived at the front yard, only Jiang Chengsi was there.
He was drinking tea and sunbathing, with a phone placed next to him, the screen still lit, it seed he was chatting with Si Qingxiao.
At the mont, he was holding a bird teasing stick, engaging in a battle of wits with Hua i.
It’s strange, the Tang Family’s Hua i isn’t aggressive, yet it can’t stand Jiang Chengsi, and squawks whenever it sees him.
Originally, when the Tang elder went out for a walk, he always took it with him, but today he was holding Jiang Xiaowai and completely ignored the bird.
Hua i was feeling downhearted, yet Jiang Chengsi insisted on teasing it.
It didn’t want to pay him any attention, but this person kept poking at it with a stick.
So when Tang Wan ca out, she saw Hua i fluttering its wings, eager to escape the cage.
"Fourth Brother, up so early?" Jiang Chengsi was a night owl, rarely seen in the morning.
"It’s boring, went to bed early last night." Jiang Chengsi was still poking at Hua i, seemingly having a great ti.
"Have you had breakfast?"
"I have."
"Then I’ll go to the kitchen and see what’s there to eat." As Tang Wan had just entered the house, there was a knock on the door from outside.
Tang Wan seed not to hear it, so Jiang Chengsi got up to open the door.
Unexpectedly...
It was You Hongxian.
You Hongxian clearly didn’t expect Jiang Chengsi to open the door for him, the two weren’t familiar, yet they were polite.
"Mr. You, why have you co?" Jiang Chengsi noticed that he had two people following him, carrying bags of stuff, a grand scene.
"I’m here to see Tang Wan, is she ho?"
"What do you need her for?" Jiang Chengsi stood at the door with arms crossed.
At this mont, Tang Wan, perhaps hearing the conversation, ca out from inside. She hadn’t seen You Hongxian before, frowned slightly, "And you are...?"
"Hello, I’m You Hongxian, You Shenming’s father." You Hongxian took the opportunity to introduce himself and stepped across the threshold into the Tang Family’s ho.
Tang Wan raised her eyebrows slightly, roughly guessing his intention.
Recently, the court inford her that You Shenming’s intentional injury case was about to go to trial, she was the involved party and also the victim. The prosecution hoped she would testify in court to explain so situations, and the Shen elder had also received the relevant notice.
You Shenming was definitely going to be imprisoned, but if the Shen elder or Tang Wan could provide statents of forgiveness, the judge would take these into consideration during sentencing.
You Hongxian was surely here for the forgiveness statent.
Jiang Chengsi had been ssaging with Si Qingxiao all along.
Si Qingxiao received a ssage on her phone: [Your uncle is here.]
She raised her eyebrows slightly, realizing You Hongxian went to the Tang Family in Pingjiang, definitely trying to maneuver the You Shenming case.
She pursed her lips, knowing he had always wanted to contact her parents, hoping the Si Family might work so connections to help rescue You Shenming.
Knowing their family wouldn’t intervene, he started sending gifts to the Shen Family before New Year, hoping they would speak a good word during the trial.
Seeing that path wasn’t viable, now he focused on Tang Wan.
However, this person was her uncle; her identity inevitably felt awkward, and she was considering how to reply to Jiang Chengsi’s ssage.
Within just five or six minutes, she received another ssage from Jiang Chengsi:
[Xiaoxiao, give the lowdown. How is your family’s relationship with the You Family? Are you close with your uncle? How is your mother’s relationship with your uncle?]
[What’s wrong?]
[Your uncle was bumped into by Xiaowu and got berated, looked like he got annoyed and was about to get physical. After Xiaowu threw both him and his gifts out, I rembered he was your uncle.]
