Chapter 685: Sooner or later, it will cause big trouble, the so-called marriage application_2
"Chengsi, he knows he was wrong, itâs my lack of discipline, and I apologize to you on his behalf," elder Liang sighed helplessly, "How did I end up with such an unworthy descendant who causes trouble wherever he goes."
"Old Liang, kids will be kids, roughhousing is normal. Chengsi hasnât taken it to heart, right?" The matriarch kept winking at Jiang Chengsi.
Everyone knew what was going on. Elder Liang was, indeed, here to apologize with Liang Han, but given the current situation, Jiang Chengsi seemed unwilling to forgive, almost as if he was looking for an excuse to hold a grudge.
More importantly, Elder Liang and the matriarch were personally acquainted. To deny him face would likely make the matriarch uncomfortable as well.
Jiang Chengsi put down the orange in his hand and smiled at Elder Liang, "Grandpa Liang is too serious. Things got out of hand that evening, and I wasnât very calm, so I just kicked him out. You donât need to apologize to me. I have a short memory and have long forgotten about it."
Jiang Jinsang was holding Tang Wanâs hand, rubbing it in the palm of his hand...
Short memory?
Jiang Chengsi was actually quite the grudge-holder.
"Thatâs good then. I heard he got into a fight and crossed you, and itâs been weighing on my mind..." Elder Liang said, then proceeded to give Liang Han a severe scolding.
The matriarch even invited them to stay for a meal, but they politely declined. On the way back, Liang Han huffed in displeasure.
"If it werenât for Jiang Chengsi kicking me out of the club, I wouldnât have been so embarrassed in Beijing. And now youâre making me apologize?"
Elder Liang glanced sideways at him with a scowl:
"Iâve told you before, our family is currently seeking the Jiang Familyâs favor. Your father is negotiating a business deal with them. I sent you to Jiang Chengsiâs club so you could take the opportunity to cozy up to him and build a rapport, but look at you..."
"You actually went and started a fight?"
"Have my words gone in one ear and out the other?"
"Grandpa, havenât you noticed that Jiang Chengsi is so full of himself, he totally looks down on me! He himself isnât such a great person, people in the circle say he swings both ways and has a dubious relationship with Qi Zeyan, what right does he..."
Liang Han was cut off mid-sentence by a sharp kick from elder Liang.
"Grandpa?"
"Itâs exactly this attitude that gets you into trouble. Keep your mouth shut. Youâre staying home and reflecting on your actions, and youâre not leaving the house. Itâs a critical time for your fatherâs negotiations with the Jiang Family, and you better not cause any more trouble," Elder Liang said with a headache, wondering how he ended up with such a grandson.
Although Jiang Chengsi was known as the odd one out of the Jiang Family externally, he knew his limits. While being a bit unruly, he was extremely well-liked by the elders, and everyone in their circle praised him.
Especially when compared with the other grandsons of the Jiang Family, looking at his own disappointing offspring, Elder Liang felt his heart pounding uncontrollably. He had to steady his chest with his hand before he eventually calmed down.
"My dad is doing business with the Jiang Family? Hmmâ" Liang Han snorted.
Probably busy climbing into some womanâs bed or dating that vixen.
But such low comments, especially coming from such low-class women, were not things he would say in front of his grandfather.
...
After the Liang Family left, the matriarch asked Jiang Chengsi what exactly had happened.
"There wasnât much to it, really. How Liang Han conducts himself really doesnât concern me. I just never thought the Liang Family would bring him here just to apologize so formally... I didnât expect them to come specifically for me."
"The Liang Family has been discussing a cooperative project with father recently," Jiang Jinsang interjected, "Liang Han being kicked out by you didnât bother you, but such news reaching both companies might stir up some trouble."
"They must have figured out the timing purposely, how else could it be such a coincidence? You had just arrived, and the Liang Family showed up."
"After all, at grandmaâs, itâs difficult for you to refuse an apology, itâs just a show for others to see that our families are on good terms. This positive news could facilitate the cooperation."
Jiang Chengsi scoffed lightly, "I thought as much; itâs not such a big deal to make such a fuss about."
"This Liang Han seems like a spoiled child..." Tang Wan pursed her lips.
Arriving so arrogantly at someone elseâs house just to make an apology as if he were above it all.
"His parents have been married for many years without any children, and when they finally had him, everyone in the Liang Family spoiled him rotten. Itâs okay to be flamboyant, but your morals and values mustnât be problematic," the matriarch said as she bent down and toyed with her plants.
"Heâs caused some incidents before, but the Liang Family always dealt with them privately."
"If the Liang Family doesnât get tough and keep this kid in check, I fear heâll sooner or later create a real mess."
