Jiang Zongnan used to be considered an elder to the young man in front of him. Ye Wangchuan gave him enough face in the past.
How comfortable he used to be in front of Ye Wangchuan was how embarrassed he was now.
Jiang Zongnan took a deep breath and frowned slightly. He felt ashamed as he said, â⦠Itâs my fault for not educating my children well. As for Nian Nian⦠Iâll apologize to her. Itâs just that this matter might not have anything to do with Xianrou. The Zhu family called me previously, and from his tone, Xianrou didnât seem to know. She only found out later that Zhu Yuanhao got someone to steal Nian Nianâs USB driveâ¦ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The young man reclining on the sofa didnât react. He raised his hand, picked up the tea on the coffee table, took a sip, and put it down again.
He was like an ancient noble young master as he drank tea. His smooth movements revealed elegance.
!!
He kept his mouth shut.
At the side, Qin Si couldnât help but raise his eyebrows and mock, âHow does President Jiang plan to explain?â
Jiang Zongnan was silent for a moment.
He knew that Jiang Xianrou was more or less at fault in this matter. Zhu Yuanhao wouldnât have found someone to steal the USB drive if she hadnât shown that she had a grudge against Qiao Nian.
He stopped hesitating and said softly, âIâll ask her to apologize to Nian Nian if Xianrou has anything to do with this.â
âJust an apology?â Qin Si smiled and leaned back on the sofa. He spread his hands on his sides with a mocking expression. âIsnât President Jiangâs explanation too simple?â
Jiang Yao almost asked, âWhat do you want?â
But his father grabbed his arm before he could do so.
Jiang Zongnan seemed to have aged 10 years. Deep lines could be seen at the corners of his eyes. He had a better temperament and was calmer than Jiang Yao. His shrewd eyes looked past Qin Si and at the young man sitting beside him, and he asked softly, âYoung Master Ye, what do you want?â
Ye Wangchuan narrowed his eyes and looked at him deeply.
Jiang Zongnan whispered again, âNian Nian is my niece. This matter has affected her. Xianrou has more or less done something wrong, and I wonât protect her. But she doesnât know about this, either. Zhu Yuanhao did it behind her back. Even if sheâs in the wrong, it wasnât intentional. Young Master Ye, Iâm not protecting her, itâs justâ¦â
Qin Si couldnât stand it anymore. He stood up and interrupted him. âPresident Jiang!â
âYou keep saying that you wonât protect your daughter, that Sister Qiao is also your niece, and youâll treat the two of them fairly. But youâre absolving your daughter from everything! One moment, youâre saying that she doesnât know, and the next, youâre saying that she didnât do it on purposeâ¦â
Qin Si laughed arrogantly. âIâm puzzled. Sheâs so big, but she looks like she doesnât have a brain.â
He continued, âPresident Jiang, weâre all people in the circle. You and I know very well whether Jiang Xianrou did it on purpose and whether she sowed discord in Zhu Yuanhaoâs ears. No one here is a fool. President Jiang, why do you have to use these words to disgust everyone?â
Ye Wangchuan stood up at this moment. His aura suppressed everyone, including Qin Si.
Jiang Zongnanâs heart turned cold.
As expected.
The young manâs voice was lazy, just like his usual style. He didnât say a word of nonsense and said concisely, âYin Wenzhi has been kicked out of school and Zhu Yuanhao has been sent to the police station. Jiang Xianrou⦠has to take a leave of absence or go overseas. Choose one.â
