CHAPTER 684: SOONER OR LATER, IT WILL CAUSE BIG TROUBLE, THE SO-CALLED MARRIAGE APPLICATION.

Jiang Mansion

Tang Wan and Jiang Jinsang followed the old lady out to greet the guests, while Jiang Chengsi dawdled, massaging his waist and muttering under his breath about someone being too ruthless.

"Fourth Brother, are you really okay? Do you want to have it checked or apply some Red Flower Oil?" Tang Wan looked at him, as he seemed to be in great pain.

"No need."

"Huo Big Brother really went overboard." Tang Wan pursed her lips.

Jiang Chengsi touched his nose. Actually, before Huo Qinqi disciplined him, he had asked Chengsi a similar question, "Do I need to go easy on you?"

At that moment Chengsi thought to himself:

Are you kidding me? Do I look like I need you to hold back?

A man should fight with all he’s got; who needs all that tricky stuff? He even taunted a bit, but then...

For about four or five seconds,

he had been thrown around and pinned to the ground.

The people from the Huo Family were laughing like crazy. Jiang Chengsi was fuming with rage at the time, furious that he hadn’t been given any face, but afterward, he had a real epiphany. He wasn’t the teenager he used to be; he truly couldn’t take a beating.

While he was reflecting on how cold and ruthless that person was, the grandson duo from the Liang Family had already entered the living room.

"It’s good that you’re here, but why bring so much stuff?" When people from the Liang Family came over, they naturally didn’t come empty-handed. The old lady suddenly caught sight of the person behind Old Master Liang, "Oh— Xiaohan, what happened to your face? Such terrible injuries?"

The Xiaohan she mentioned was this young master of the Liang Family—

Liang Han.

Han, meaning the sky is about to brighten, a symbol of hope. Which shows that the Liang Family places their hopes on him.

"Grandpa Liang." Tang Wan, following Jiang Jinsang, called out to the elderly gentleman walking ahead but stealthily sized up the man behind him.

He had a youthful appearance, not bad looking, but disheveled from staying up late and indulging in smoking and drinking, with dark circles and bloodshot eyes. He’d been mixing in the wrong crowds for too long, his rebellious phase was heavy, and he followed behind Old Master Liang reluctantly.

His face had visible bruises, new injuries clearly caused by fighting.

"Suddenly coming over like this, we’re intruding." Old Master Liang was wearing a black shirt, looking lean and spry, with deep-set eyes and a typical wolfish gaze, seemingly harboring ferocity. But with age, the ferocity was restrained, and his lips were slightly purplish.

Tang Wan faintly remembered Zhou Zhongqing mentioning that purple lips might indicate poor heart and lung health.

In fact, Liang Han had inherited his grandfather’s wolfish eyes, but they had grown dull and lifeless from long-term exposure to smoke and alcohol.

"Don’t mention it, come in and have a seat." The old lady invited them to sit, offering tea and water. After everyone was seated, Jiang Chengsi was planning to slip away after just two minutes when, after a few pleasantries, Old Master Liang rather embarrassingly said:

"The main reason for my visit this time is actually because of Xiaohan. I brought him specifically to apologize to Chengsi."

All eyes turned to Jiang Chengsi just as he was lowering his head to eat an orange. On hearing this, he nearly choked.

"Young Xiaohan is still a child, doesn’t know any better. He got into a fight at Chengsi’s club, and honestly, mentioning it makes my face turn red with shame. Just look at him..." Old Master Liang pointed at Liang Han, full of resentment for his lack of initiative, "He’s really gone and embarrassed me out there!"

"Grandpa!" Liang Han, at his age with a strong sense of pride, was naturally unwilling to have his mistakes pointed out in someone else’s home.

"Now you know shame? When you were fighting with others, why didn’t you think about saving face?" Old Master Liang pointed towards Jiang Jinsang and the others.

"Look at the Jiang brothers; I’ve told you time and again to learn from them. Don’t hang around outside with those shifty characters all the time."

"I told you before, mingle more with them, learn from them. Instead, you go out and get into fights, completely losing face for me."

...

As he kept reprimanding the child, the old lady couldn’t just sit idly by, "Old Liang, he’s still young, you can teach him slowly."

"He got kicked out by Chengsi," Old Master Liang sighed heavily, looking at Jiang Chengsi. "Chengsi, please don’t hold it against him; he’s just a waste."

"I specifically brought him here today to apologize to you. What are you waiting for!"

"Apologize right away!"

Old Master Liang nudged Liang Han, who reluctantly said sorry to Jiang Chengsi.

Tang Wan leaned close to Jiang Jinsang, unaware of this whole affair, as Liang Han’s circle didn’t intersect with theirs. But even now, although they said they came to apologize, the current situation...

It clearly seemed like they were forcing Chengsi to forgive.
