Like a knife scraping bone.
Chilling cold.
You Hongxian turned his head and saw Jiang Jinsang returning with the child.
"Why are you back alone? Where are Grandpa and Aunt Huang?" Tang Wan stood up.
"They went to the market. It’s a bit noisy there, so I ca back first with the child. You should take the child inside; he might be hungry and has been restless since earlier." Jiang Jinsang handed the child to Tang Wan, then looked at You Hongxian, "Mr. You, it wasn’t easy for you to find Pingjiang."
You Hongxian’s emotions, which he had been brewing for a long ti, were disrupted, and his expression stiffened.
Tang Wan held the child but didn’t go inside because Jiang Xiaowai was attracted by Hua i’s attention, waving his arms and insisting that Tang Wan stay under the porch so he could watch the birds.
"Fifth Master Jiang..." You Hongxian was reluctant to address him this way, as he was, after all, a junior, and it didn’t feel right for him to be called master.
"I heard for a while outside. Mr. You, you probably ca this ti to plead for your son, didn’t you?"
Jiang Jinsang usually spoke very tactfully, but this ti he was straightforward, very direct, making Jiang Chengsi couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.
"I know the mistake he made is indeed..." Jiang Jinsang’s directness left You Hongxian a bit passive, "After all, he is young. I hope you can give him a chance to turn over a new leaf."
"I gave him a chance before, when he caused trouble at Fourth Brother’s club, offending my aunt and the Huo Family. At that ti, I suppressed the incident without alarming too many people."
"I just didn’t expect him to escalate and do such despicable things."
"Actually, my grandfather and others also wanted to give him a chance, which is why they sued him for intentional injury. Otherwise, it would have been attempted murder. Mr. You, you should understand the implications."
"So you should also understand, we are not pressing hard."
You Hongxian gritted his jaw, "I know you are not pressing hard. Since you are willing to forgive him, if you could provide a letter of forgiveness..."
At this point, he wasn’t afraid to reveal his intentions.
Jiang Jinsang just smiled, "Mr. You, you wouldn’t have forgotten what happened last year, would you?"
"Back then, what you did to the Qi Family, I don’t need to spell it out. To put it bluntly, if you really intended to apologize, you wouldn’t have done nothing to make ands after the incident."
"Instead, you think of apologizing only when the trial is about to start. We all understand each other, and we know what you’re thinking. I don’t want to make things too ugly."
You Hongxian probably didn’t expect Jiang Jinsang to be so direct, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Everything will be judged by the court. Please don’t disturb my family, including my grandfather and the others."
Jiang Jinsang’s words were clear enough.
You Shenming had thought of finding Tang Wan when he was in Beijing, but he didn’t dare to go to the Jiang Family, so he chose to co after Tang Wan left Beijing.
If this opportunity was lost, with Jiang Jinsang’s temperant, the next ti he saw her would definitely be in court.
You Hongxian still wanted to make one last effort, trying to bypass Jiang Jinsang and speak directly with Tang Wan.
"Tang Wan, my son was indeed wrong, but he’s still so young. If he goes in, his life will be ruined. I hope you can..."
As You Hongxian tried to pass, Jiang Jinsang directly raised his arm to block him, "Mr. You, I’ve made my words very clear. You should leave now."
"If I have to force you out, it won’t look good."
"Tang Wan, on my behalf—" You Hongxian finally managed to seize an opportunity, for his son’s sake, not caring about his face.
Seeing him so brazen, Jiang Jinsang frowned, his tone instantly cold:
"Mr. You, to put it bluntly, your son becoming what he is today has a lot to do with you!"
"Your lack of discipline led him to make such grave mistakes. As a father, have you truly repented? If you really wanted to atone for your son, you shouldn’t have ddled in the Qi Family’s affairs."
"Your act has already been enough. If I don’t directly throw you out, it’s already giving you plenty of face."
"Moreover..."
"Do you really think you have any face? A person’s dignity is earned by themselves. You know very well whose family gave you your standing. You’re not young anymore; you should understand the principle of not doing to others what you don’t want yourself!"
Jiang Jinsang’s words weren’t harsh, but they precisely hit the most piercing spots.
Si Family!
You Hongxian knew in his heart that the achievents he had today were all due to the Si Family, but at this age, being reprimanded by a junior couldn’t help but cause resentnt.
