Xie Duo sneered, "Our two families will surely start a feud over this!"
"Jiang Zhaolin is indeed cunning and ruthless. If he strikes, he strikes hard."
Xie Senior’s face remained cold:
"Whoever it is, if they touch our Xie Family mbers, it won’t be tolerated! What does he, Jiang Zhaolin, think he is? How dare he use our people as pawns!"
Xie Duo felt a chill down his spine upon thinking about it because the matter involved too much...
"Grandfather, what should we do now?"
Xie Senior’s forehead veins throbbed violently, clearly furious.
"Let’s start with a press conference, clarify Zhixian’s adopted father’s issue, deal with this scum first. As for Jiang Zhaolin, let’s see what the Jiang Family will do. If needed, we’ll cooperate—"
...
The aftermath of these two incidents didn’t beco apparent until the next day.
Within the Jiang corporation, there was a clamor claiming that this incident had greatly affected the group and that Jiang Yanting was no longer suitable for holding a key position in the company. At least for now, he should go ho and lay low.
At this mont, soone quickly pushed out the third young master of the Jiang Family—Jiang Shiyi.
Claiming that with so many sons in the Jiang family, soone could surely replace him.
At the police station, mob emotion surged; they had no choice but to go to the Jiang house to inquire and took the old lady’s driver back to the station for questioning.
As soon as the driver was taken away, the report imdiately ca out.
[Jiang Family suspected of intentional injury, suspect has been arrested, identified as the old madam’s driver.]
"The driver? He’s obviously being used as a scapegoat. Would a driver dare to do this?"
"Such a perfunctory response, I knew it would be so."
"It’s actually true, the Jiang Family has indeed made a move."
...
While things outside were in turmoil, Tang Wan, currently bearing the title of Jiang Jinsang’s fiancée, found it inappropriate to go out and temporarily closed down her workshop to stay with Jiang Jinsang at the hospital.
Because of this incident, Beijing was in an uproar, and yet Jiang Jinsang was actually looking at ho decoration books, occasionally consulting Tang Wan.
"What do you think of this color sche? I’ll set up a studio for you at ho with this decor," Jiang Jinsang flipped through the book, "I’ve never decorated a house before, there’s so much to learn—from Feng Shui, color coordination to layout, all have their subtleties."
"For our bedroom, I want to install a big bathtub. I see that you are always bending over doing Cyan Feather, and your lumbar isn’t great. It will help to soak and relieve fatigue."
Tang Wan chuckled lightly, thinking he was quite thoughtful.
But later, she found out that Jiang Jinsang’s installation of a big bathtub was not just for her but also for his own benefit.
"What about the baby room decor? How about one for a boy and another for a girl?"
Why did the topic switch to children again?
...
"Do you know what the situation is like in Beijing right now? And you still have the leisure to read such books." Tang Wan knew clearly that this event might have been within his anticipation.
Yet, with such a charged atmosphere outside, it was hard not to be anxious.
Even Tang Yunxian from Pingjiang had called several tis to check in.
"Decorating our wedding house, in my view, is a top priority."
Jiang Jinsang flipped the book carefree. He hadn’t expected that among the boxes of books sent by soone, there were a few about ho decoration. Since there was nothing else to do, might as well study how to decorate the matrimonial ho.
"You still have the mood to think about decorating the matrimonial ho; isn’t the top priority for you supposed to be undergoing surgery?" Zhou Zhongqing entered the room. "Oh, the Huo family boy is finally not here."
"I was checking your health, and he kept glaring at , as if I was going to harm you, even doubting my professionalism?"
"He said that my thod of examining you wasn’t professional. I am not a soldier under his command, and yet he dares to micromanage , which is quite ridiculous."
"Think about before, he was injured during a mission, and I saved him twice. If I hadn’t pulled him back from the brink, he wouldn’t be standing here, that little rascal."
...
As Zhou Zhongqing muttered, Jiang Jinsang suddenly looked towards the door, "The little rascal you ntioned has co."
"Stop ssing around, lie down, let check on you." Zhou Zhongqing ca in without closing the door, as it was routine rounds, nothing confidential, no need to deliberately shut the door.
"I’m serious."
"Jiang Xiaowu, you really don’t need to prank if you don’t want a dical checkup. How many tis has it been? Do you find it amusing?" Jiang Jinsang was a person of questionable taste.
Lying in the hospital, utterly bored, Lord Wansui, this turtle, didn’t even know how many tis he had been flipped over and teased.
Whenever Lord Wansui saw him reaching out, he would hide inside his shell, too scared to show himself.
Eventually, he turned his attention to Zhou Zhongqing.
Knowing that Zhou Zhongqing didn’t want to interact with the Huo Family, he always intentionally frightened him by crying wolf.
After several tis, Zhou Zhongqing was immune.
"Uncle Zhou, I’m serious, he really is here."
"Jiang Jinsang, enough is enough!"
"He is right behind you, turn around if you don’t believe ." Jiang Jinsang said with a smile.
Zhou Zhongqing, continuously hearing this, felt a trace of suspicion arise. Yet, distrustful of Jiang Jinsang, he looked up towards Tang Wan sitting on the other side. Catching her gaze, it seed to pass over him and focus on sothing else, "Wanwan?"
Tang Wan slightly nodded.
Zhou Zhongqing stiffened his neck and turned around, the tall figure with a cold murderous aura stood right behind him, emotionless, with chilling eyes, nearly giving him a heart attack.
"So Uncle Zhou... really didn’t want to see ."
"How could that be... I just..."
"Then what follows might be uncomfortable for you because..." his voice was hoarse and deep, carrying the intimidation of a longti military leader.
"I’ll be coming often."
Zhou Zhongqing laughed resignedly, quickly finished Jiang Jinsang’s checkup, and then left the ward:
Coming often? These young rascals these days are really out to play dirty!
...
Just after Zhou Zhongqing left, Jiang Cuo knocked and entered, "My Lord—there’s an issue."
"What’s up?" Jiang Jinsang lifted his hand to adjust his patient garnt.
"The Xie Family is holding a press conference and the company is also preparing a eting to discuss letting the Second Master..."
"Discuss what?"
"Let him take a break."
Tang Wan frowned, "Why suddenly let big brother take a break?"
Jiang Cuo cleared his throat lightly, "The Second Master was supposed to have an interview today, which was scheduled a month ago. That dia asked about his opinion on Shen Zhixian, he only said..."
"I stand with her, through thick and thin!"
"The current public opinion about Miss Shen is pretty bad, and I’ve heard that there are quite a few people in the company who hope he cuts ties with Miss Shen to avoid affecting the company..." Jiang Cuo coughed, "These words from the Second Master were misconstrued as neglecting company benefits, hence the eting. Ultimately, it’s Jiang Zhaolin trying to take this opportunity to pull the Second Master down..."
Hearing this, Jiang Jinsang couldn’t help but smile, "That’s my brother’s style."
In the eye of the storm, saying such things will inevitably bring consequences.
Shen Zhixian, upon knowing this, called him a fool.
Yet, his words had greatly impressed the Xie Family, especially Old Master Xie. At such a ti, to dare to speak so required true courage.
And Xie Duo, for the first ti, felt that after competing with him for so many years, even if he was of a younger generation and defeated, there was no sha.
Jiang Jinsang could imagine what his brother looked like when he said those words.
Surely he was recklessly arrogant and aloof.
Tang Wan asked quietly, "So, the one hooked this ti is... Jiang Zhaolin?"
"It’s hard to catch big brother on a professional slip, he will definitely seize this opportunity..." Jiang Jinsang adjusted his clothes, "Now that big brother and sister-in-law’s relationship has been exposed, he felt the crisis."
"This fish has been baited for so long, it’s ti to reel in the net."
