Chapter 126: Falling into the wolf's den again?

The old woman dragged her heavy body and returned to the Jiang family in a sorry state.

Originally, I planned to tidy up a bit before meeting the head of the family, Jiang Hai, but I didn't expect the two of us to meet at his home.

He was a middle-aged man with a square face and a dignified appearance.

He stood with his hands behind his back, raising an eyebrow slightly as he looked at the old woman. His deep voice fell: "What happened? Why are you in such a disheveled state?"

He has no useless subordinates.

The fact that he could beat the old woman into this state clearly bothered him.

"Reporting to the patriarch, on the way back, I encountered a mysterious master. His skills were superb, and I was accidentally injured by him during the fight."

"It's alright, you'll recover after some rest."

The old woman pondered what to say along the way, and in the end, this was the only excuse she could come up with.

However, Jiang Hai did not respond immediately.

A shrewd glint flashed in his eyes as he carefully examined the old woman.

The old woman felt extremely uncomfortable and her heart pounded with fear.

Could it be that there's something wrong with what I'm saying?

Or did I reveal a flaw somewhere?

A multitude of thoughts flooded her mind, and the old woman grew increasingly terrified. What kind of day was this? Was her luck really so bad? She had just escaped from the tiger's mouth, only to fall into the wolf's den.

"Okay, it's good that everything's alright."

Fortunately, Jiang Hai didn't delve into the matter at this point, and instead continued, "Be careful when you go out in the future. Things are getting more and more turbulent lately, so you don't end up getting caught off guard."

call!

At this moment, the old woman breathed a long sigh of relief.

Unbeknownst to me, countless drops of sweat had appeared on my back, soaking through my clothes.

"By the way, how did things go? What was that little bastard's reaction?"

Jiang Hai thought of the old woman's main task this time.

Upon hearing this, the old woman's expression became somewhat abnormal, but only for a moment. She quickly reported the truth: "The young lady is still unwilling, and her resistance is quite intense."

Jiang Hai didn't pay any attention to this.

Instead, he snorted and let out a muffled groan: "Ignore her! Do you really think we can let her have her little tantrums at a time like this?"

"How much effort did our Jiang family expend for her back then? Now that it's her turn to give back to the family, she's unwilling? Who gave this little bastard the right to do that!"

The old woman hung her head and did not reply.

Recalling Ye Feng's methods, a chill ran down his spine.

"You'd better keep a close eye on that little bastard these next few days. Report any suspicious activity to me. I want to see just how capable she is, and whether she can cause any trouble!"

Jiang Hai left after saying those words, then turned and strode away with his head held high.

"yes!"

......

Shen family.

Seeing that Ye Feng hadn't returned yet, Qin Yao grew restless, her face filled with worry: "Why hasn't Ye Feng come back yet? What time is it?"

snort!

A cold snort rang in his ears. Shen Lang flicked the ash from his cigarette with disdain: "Why do you care what he does? It's best if he doesn't come back. Does he really think he can just walk into the Shen family's gate whenever he wants?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and Ye Feng walked in from outside.

Seeing that Qin Yao was still waiting for him, he said with a hint of apology, "Aunt Qin, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Something came up and I was a little delayed, which is why you've been waiting until now."

Before Qin Yao could speak first, it was the leisurely Shen Lang who spoke.

"You had other things to do, how could you keep your elders waiting for so long?"

"Besides, what could be going on so late? They're probably up to some petty theft..."

Ye Feng glared at him.

Those words that were on the tip of their tongue, even about to be uttered, were swallowed back down.

Shen Lang only dared to talk about it; he didn't have the guts to actually do anything substantial.

Just then, Shen Luoyi came down from upstairs.

At this moment, Shen Lang immediately sat up straight, looked at Shen Luoyi, and said, "Luoyi, what do you think about what Dad told you before? This is a great opportunity."

For some reason, as they were talking, Shen Lang glanced at Ye Feng, seemingly unintentionally.

It seemed as if the matter being discussed was related to him.

Shen Luoyi was taken aback, then frowned and said without thinking, "Let's talk about it later. There's been too much going on at the company lately; I don't have much time."

"What do you mean you don't have time? Time can always be made."

Shen Lang sighed slightly and muttered earnestly, "He's put a lot of effort into this for you, and he's given you a lot of gifts. Even if you don't invite him to your home for dinner, you could at least invite him to dinner on your own."

"This is a matter of etiquette."

He spoke seriously, but Shen Luoyi ignored him.

He poured himself a glass of water, drank it, and left without a second thought.

Shen Lang was furious when he saw this.

"That brat, she won't listen to anything I say, as if I'd harm her!"

Qin Yao couldn't help but roll her eyes at Shen Lang: "The child knows what's going on in his own life, so don't worry about it."

"How could I not worry!"

"My daughter is so outstanding, I can't possibly..."

Shen Lang seemed to realize something, shrank his neck, and ultimately couldn't bring himself to say it: "I said it's about reciprocity, it's about etiquette, don't you understand?"

"Wang Haitian isn't some great villain. If he says our Shen family doesn't know the rules, people will laugh at us."

Ye Feng, standing to the side, had no way to ask further questions, but he had a general idea of ​​what was going on.

I decided to offer a word of advice: "Some things can't be judged by appearances alone; be careful not to make a fool of yourself."

Urging her daughter to go out to eat with strangers, doesn't she take herself seriously?

Shen Lang's eyes widened, as if flames were burning within them, and he shouted, unable to contain himself any longer, "You should worry about your own affairs! You wouldn't understand these things!"

Ye Feng shrugged.

Too lazy to argue with her, he turned to Qin Yao and said, "Aunt Qin, you should get some rest early, don't stay up too late."

After saying that, he left.

"This kid! He's getting more and more outrageous, showing no respect for his elders." Shen Lang had barely finished speaking when he noticed an unfriendly gaze fixed on him.

"Why does he talk so much every day!"

"Can't you just shut up for once!"

Qin Yao tossed the guarantee aside and left with a slightly displeased expression.

Silent all night.

Ding Ding Ding!

The next morning, the phone rang urgently.

Ye Feng woke up from his sleep, glanced at the phone, and saw that it was He Qingqing calling.

"Feed?"

"Sir, all the medicinal herbs you wrote down before have been collected. When would you have time?"

Ye Feng suddenly came to his senses.

It seems the Dongxing Gang is quite efficient.

"I'll be right there. Just prepare a quiet room."

"yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Ye Feng quickly washed up and left the Shen family, heading straight for the Dongxing Gang.
