Now letâs see if Jiang Shiheng will call âGrandfatherâ.
Call? Not right.
Not call? Also not right.
If he calls now, it clearly means heâs agreeing to this engagement.
Not calling, with Old Master Luâs status and standing here, refusing to call him âGrandfatherâ is a matter of saving face.
If the other side claims thereâs no other intention, yet brings up this matter, Jiang Shiheng wonât have a valid point.
So although this soft blade is offered, itâs not soft at all.
Old Master Jiang and Jiang Qiuyan both felt a jolt.
The Jiang Family may be the only ones who know Jiang Liuâs thoughts, knowing he doesnât intend to marry Lu Shuangshuang.
So they also looked at Lu Shuangshuang.
At this moment, if Lu Shuangshuang can step forward, it would be ideal. If she truly stands by Jiang Shihengâs side, thinking for him, then she should say something to give him a way out.
After all, she knows Jiang Liuâs intentions.
However, in the eyes of everyone, Lu Shuangshuang shyly lowered her head, looking at no one.
Old Master Jiangâs heart skipped a beat.
He suddenly thought, Lu Shuangshuang already knows Jiang Liuâs intentions. Within these two days, why hasnât she thought of explaining it to Old Master Lu upon his arrival?
Or perhaps, was she deliberately keeping silent?
Everyone watched Jiang Shiheng.
Jiang Shiheng picked up his wine glass and stood up.
Chen Baoshen frowned as he watched him lift the wine glass.
Though the circumstances might leave no choice, he was commissioned by Chiang Xiao to keep a close eye on Jiang Shiheng; he canât drink.
Chiang Xiao also strictly forbade him from drinking.
As Jiang Shiheng was about to speak, Sun Han suddenly approached him and whispered something in his ear.
Jiang Shihengâs expression didnât change; he simply put down the wine glass and said to Old Master Lu, "Iâm sorry, my daughter suddenly needs me, I have to go."
Then he turned to Old Master Jiang, "Grandfather, letâs continue the banquet."
After speaking, he quickly walked out, and Sun Han hurriedly followed.
Once Jiang Shiheng stepped out, he made a gesture and quietly said, "Donât let anyone follow."
"Yes, Sixth Young Master."
He and Sun Han quickly moved out the gates, accompanied by the bodyguard who had previously brought the message.
"Sixth Young Master, over there?"
"Quick, lead the way!" At this point, Jiang Shihengâs expression really changed, and his tone was slightly trembling.
He wasnât calm at all now.
Because Sun Han just told him that Cheng Cheng was in trouble.
Cheng Cheng didnât arrive on time today, which had him worried, but he trusts Cheng Chengâs abilities. He didnât expect those people to be so desperate, choosing to act tonight, as Cheng Cheng was coming to the Jiang Family, and choosing the Jiang Familyâs location.
If Cheng Cheng dies in this pond, Jiang Liu and the others would face a lifetime of humiliation whenever they pass by this pond.
The intent is outrageous.
"Does Sun Han have Littleâs potion on him?"
"Yes, Sixth Young Master."
Thatâs good.
Chiang Xiao had them bring many potions back earlier. In anticipation of emergencies, Jiang Shiheng had Sun Han carry the potion before heading to the banquet hall.
"Sixth Young Master, weâre here!"
Upon reaching the pond and seeing that scene, Jiang Shihengâs heart clenched.
