Tang Wan packed her things, sat on the Jiang family’s car, and headed for the Tang family’s estate.
Jiang Jinshang had seen all of her aggressive attitude just now, so he must have felt that she was very fierce.
However, he didn’t look like a person who liked to gossip behind her back. After his return to the Capital City, there wouldn’t be much opportunity for them to meet. He was already 25 years old, and since he said that he wouldn’t live past 28, Tang Wan had to repay the favor she owed as soon as possible…
Jiang Jinshang tilted his head and looked out of the window. The Tang family’s estate was in the suburbs. Pingjiang was a beautiful place and the scenery along the way was amazing.
He occasionally tilted his head and noticed that the lady sitting next to him were staring at a certain place in a daze.
At this moment, he probably wouldn’t have thought that Tang Wan was thinking to herself,
With Fifth Master Jiang’s way of living, if I don’t repay the favor now, the next time we meet, this person might be gone.
***
After the car passed through a little village built of black tiles and white walls, they could see the Tang family’s estate from afar.
It was an antique three-span courtyard with a painted red door. The white walls were covered with vines, and only the words “Tang family” in gilded gold shone brightly under the autumn sun.
After the car came to a stop, Tang Wan pushed the door open and got out of the car. “Fifth Master, this way, please.”
Another scene befell their eyes once the gates were opened. The mansion and courtyard was at least a hundred years old. Even the seemingly random mountain rocks in the courtyard were placed in accordance with the rules of Feng Shui.
Tang Wan led him into the living room by the front yard. “Fifth Master, don’t be shy. Please have a seat.”
Jiang Jinshang looked at the living room without batting an eyelid. Even the plates of fruits on the coffee table were all made of celadon porcelain plates, and incense burners with bronze hanging ears. Exquisite ornaments and .
This was where Tang Wan lived. Now, her actions and demeanors made plenty of sense.
“Miss, you’re back.” A person who looked like a maid walked in.
“Where’s Grandpa?”
“Madam sent him back already. She’s helping to pack up in the backyard. Grandpa went to the park to look at the birds. He should be back soon.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Zhang Liyun’s voice coming from the backyard.
“Is Grandpa back?”
She was charming and usually spoke and did things neatly and pleasantly. It was just that Old Master Tang’s health began deteriorating and she started losing her patience.
Zhang Liyun came out from the backyard and saw Jiang Jinshang sitting on the couch at first glance. Her smile froze for a second before it blossomed again. “So it’s Wan Wan who’s back. Fifth Master, you’re here too?”
“Mrs. Tang.” Jiang Jinshang greeted politely, but his tone was still neither warm nor angry.
“I heard that you went out to eat. What did you eat? I wonder if Fifth Master is used to Pingjiang’s tastes…”
Zhang Liyun acted as if nothing had happened in the morning. She was calm and collected.
Jiang Jinshang raised his eyebrows.
Tang Mo was nothing compared to her mother!
***
While they were chatting, Old Master Tang had already entered the main door. When he learned that Jiang Jinshang was here, he was overjoyed. One could hear his laughter from far away, and he laughed so hard that he coughed twice.
“Jinshang, I was on the phone with Wan Wan just now. I thought you would leave after finishing your meal. Haha, I didn’t expect you to come as well.” Old Master Tang’s gaze swept over the two of them.
From the looks of it, he wished he could immediately tie the two of them together.
Jiang Jinshang cleared his throat slightly after being told that his health wasn’t good by an old man who was almost eighty. He felt a little strange.
Zhang Liyun stood by the side, her heart burning with anxiety. She had just received a call from home and learned that Tang Wan had gone overboard with everything she had done.
Losing a pair of earring and subsequently calling the police, it was obvious that she was trying to embarrass her daughter!
She was prepared to reprimand Tang Wan when Old Master Tang returned. They were a family, why did she have to resort to such drastic measures?
She didn’t expect that Fifth Master Jiang would also be here. She was stunned and her heart was burning with anger.
However, she didn’t expect the first person to talk about the matter was…
Jiang Jinshang!
“Actually, after dinner, I already sent Ms. Tang home. But a little incident happened,” Jiang Jinshang said with a smile.
“Which is?” Old Master Tang didn’t understand.
“Ms. Tang Mo brought a group of classmates home, but she didn’t expect one of them, a girl, to steal a pair of Ms. Tang’s earrings in a spur of confusion.”
Tang Wan was making tea when she heard this. Her heart skipped a beat. She didn’t know what Jiang Jinshang was trying to do!
“A thief?” Old Tang frowned. Stealing was very much frowned upon.
“It’s understandable for Ms. Tang Mo to defend her classmates. There was an argument, and the police were alerted later.
“Actually, it’s better still to make friends cautiously. I guess that Ms. Tang Mo must be feeling uncomfortable after this incident.
“Although the two sisters are close, and she was kind enough to help Ms. Tang here pack here suitcase, it wasn’t grounds for her to bring just anyone home, right?”
Jiang Jinshang spoke gently, and the corners of his mouth curved into a cold, desolate arc.
His words were extremely devilish. On the surface, it didn’t look like he was slandering Tang Mo at all, but the Tang family knew how “close” the two sisters were.
Trespassing into Tang Wan’s room, and even bringing a bunch of people in, stealing things, and arguing..
Just a few sentences and he managed to bring Tang Mo’s reputation down by a great bit.
Old Master Tang was a smart person and immediately understood. His expression immediately darkened.
Zhang Liyun wasn’t present, so whatever she said now would annoy people. She could only swallow her anger.
“Actually, although Ms. Tang called the police to deal with it, she was still generous and didn’t alert too many people. If this matter fell into my hands and there was a thief in the house…”
Jiang Jinshang sneered, “I’m afraid things would turn ugly!”
In other words, he had Tang Wan’s back.
His tone was gentle, and every word was like a spring breeze turning into rain, but it was also like a cold wind blade, heart-piercing to say the least.
***
At this moment, Tang Wan caught a glimpse of Zhang Liyun’s livid face from the corner of her eyes, and a thought flashed through her mind.
Jiang Jinshang suddenly said that he was going to send her back? Could it be that he predicted that Zhang Liyun would look for trouble with her?
He seized the opportunity and silenced Zhang Liyun’s mouth. At the same time, his words too, nailed the coffin on Tang Mo’s head.
If anyone wanted to make an issue of this matter in the future, that would mean that they were challenging Fifth Master Jiang!
Everyone said that Fifth Master Jiang was wise and devilish. He thought so far ahead. Was he helping her clean up the mess?

Tang Wan pursed her lips. She owed him a meal and a favor. Now that she had more favor to owe, how was she going to repay it?
The bodyguards knew their Fifth Master even better. They looked at each other.
We’re here to break off the engagement. Let’s be clear. After breaking off the engagement, it’s time to return. Why is he meddling in other people’s affairs?
