Chapter 144: Disobedient Sons Kneel, the Jiang Family Apologizes
Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable came down from downstairs.
Just now, the master and mistress were in the living room, and they dared not go down.
He didn’t dare to stay in the room watching the extremely sour face of his elder sister.
Now someone has arrived, perfectly rescuing him.
When he opened the door and saw the three people outside, one of them was full of impatience. Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable was the earliest companion of Shen Fei.
Back then, before he advanced to this level, his intelligence had not fully awakened, but he also recalled that the impatient person had grievances with the master.
"Who’s here?"
Shen Fei’s voice came from inside, Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable said blandly, "The master asks who you are."
"I..."
Jiang Lin was about to say something upon seeing a Summoned Beast dare to speak to him this way.
Jiang Ying pulled him aside, knowing that this seemingly normal person-like Summoned Beast could tear apart that Tier Six Abyssal Creature directly.
The entire Jiang family tied together wasn’t enough to challenge this one.
Or perhaps not even a single finger.
"Hello, we are here to apologize to Comrade Shen." Jiang Ba’s voice carried a hint of flattery.
He suddenly didn’t know how to address Shen Fei when mentioning him.
Shen Fei is considered a classmate of his youngest son, but calling him a classmate wouldn’t be suitable unless Jiang Lin and Shen Fei had a good relationship.
He could still have a bit of seniority.
Now they have come to apologize, if he clings to seniority, it would only lead to awkwardness.
If Shen Fei gets unhappy, it wouldn’t be good for the Jiang Family’s survival.
After all, aside from his status as a student, Shen Fei’s societal position is already higher than his; calling him comrade seems fitting.
Since Shen Fei is now a hot new face in the Breaking Abyss Army.
Why does the Su Family always stand stronger than their Jiang Family?
Jiang Family’s business in Shencheng City is much larger than that of the Su Family.
But the matter at hand is Su Juncheng himself is a Tier Five, and he even possesses a Golden Medal, a clear advantage.
The Su Family rose much later than the Jiang Family.
Or rather.
Before the Su Family, the Jiang Family was the number one family in Shencheng City.
But now, personal strength is the most fundamental guarantee, followed by background, and the Jiang Family can’t compete in strength, or background.
Naturally, they must retreat behind the Su Family.
And it used to be Su Juncheng, now it is Shen Fei.
Shen Fei is much more outstanding than Su Juncheng; during that exchange match, he started pondering.
Now is the last chance for the Jiang Family.
So after the commendation conference ended, he rushed over without stopping.
"Come in then."
Shen Fei also tidied his clothes a bit, seeing Jiang Ba at the door, he didn’t display much emotion; frankly, he went through so many things in such a short time.
His thoughts about the Jiang Family have become insignificant.
Or rather, it’s not worth him dealing with it specially.
With his current status, just a word to Han Min, and Han Min would give a casual order.
The Jiang Family might not last long in Shencheng City, perhaps even in the South China Area.
The authority brought by strength is just that dominant.
He just wanted to see what the Jiang Family intended to bring out.
"Come in then."
Vast Heaven Daoist Venerable didn’t give them any attention and turned back inside, only hoping in his heart that his elder sister’s mood would improve.
Sigh~
After Jiang Ba and the other two walked in, besides Jiang Lin, Jiang Ba and Jiang Ying behaved quite properly. Shen Fei didn’t stand up, indicating Jiang Ba to sit down, saying, "Go ahead, what do you have to say?"
"Kneel, you wretch!"
Jiang Ba yelled lowly, Shen Fei hadn’t even reacted, Jiang Ying ’bang’ knelt down, and Jiang Lin’s face turned extremely unsightly, feeling hesitant.
Seeing this, Jiang Ba’s anger rose explosively in his heart.
"I said kneel!"
"I only agreed to apologize..." Jiang Lin hadn’t finished speaking when Jiang Ba physically interrupted him with a slap directly to the face.
’Bang!’
A large hand clutched his shoulder and pressed vigorously.
How could Jiang Lin have the strength to resist Jiang Ba? With a ’bang’ Jiang Lin knelt down on the ground with a face full of astonishment.
"Patriarch Jiang, Jiang Lin is also considered my classmate, and Jiang Ying my senior. Suddenly kneeling, what’s the meaning?"
Shen Fei raised an eyebrow, Jiang Ba indeed seemed to have some capability.
"These two rebellious sons previously troubled Comrade Shen.
They were young and ignorant, so I specially brought them to apologize to you." Jiang Ba could bend and stretch.
Not caring about Shen Fei being his youngest son’s classmate.
"Also, previously, I heard Comrade Shen had some thoughts about the equipment market, these are Jiang...um, two business locations I recently found decent.
If Comrade Shen is interested, you can take them."
Jiang Ba produced some contract documents in his hands, "And I heard Comrade Shen also has thoughts about potions, coincidentally my Jiang Family has three properties.
Located beside the Su Family, unsure how to handle it? If you fancy them, could you help me deal with them?"
Shen Fei was a bit surprised at this, Jiang Ba truly could bend and stretch.
Though not quite cutting meat for the Jiang Family, it certainly counted as a major bleed.
Because of a previous conflict at the Flame Demon Rift, which he learned about from Wang Xun.
These three properties were actually what the Jiang Family and Su Family relied upon for competition in the Shencheng market.
Now all are given up, it’s planning a total withdrawal from competition with the Su Family, along with that equipment...
"I am interested, but undue gains are undeserved...Patriarch Jiang, this might be a bit over the top."
"However, this can be seen as an apology to Miss Su, my son has an unstable youthful temperament, you know. His previous actions were excessive."
Finally, Jiang Ba took out a Skill Book, flashing red, "I heard Comrade Shen and Miss Su married today, this is a small token. Please accept it!"
Originally, Jiang Lin was disgruntled, but seeing his father humble himself, he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Patriarch Jiang is certainly willing to bleed." Shen Fei accepted the Skill Book, raising an eyebrow, ’Summoning Skill Book?’
"Comrade Shen is a Summoner, is this gift satisfactory to you?"
"Fine, past matters are minor. Young people are like that, Uncle Jiang needn’t mind, but I do hope Uncle Jiang will properly discipline Jiang Lin..."
When Jiang Ba heard Shen Fei’s form of address, he smiled, "That’s natural."
This way, it seems the matter has been smoothed over.
Jiang Lin and Jiang Ying hung their heads, previously they had boasted great words to Shen Fei, now it was a slap on their father’s face.
Jiang Ba felt the matter was resolved, "Then I’ll take these rebellious sons away first."
"Alright."
Shen Fei nodded, honestly he had not suffered any loss in past confrontations with the Jiang Family, and he even thought about when they might try to assassinate him.
Unexpectedly, his Talent raised his strength too fast, inadvertently.
The Jiang Family doesn’t qualify as his enemy anymore.
However, this apology cost the Jiang Family years of recovery.
Jiang Ying and Jiang Lin got up, following behind Jiang Ba with blank expressions.
"We’ll go ourselves, without troubling you."
Jiang Ba politely smiled, but the flattering smile seemed somewhat discordant on the sturdy Jiang Ba.
As he opened the door.
A figure blocked the entrance, voice slightly puzzled, "Huh? Shen Fei, you have guests?"
"Han...Governor Han!"
Jiang Ba quickly saluted.
Upon hearing Jiang Ba’s voice, Shen Fei hurried over, "It’s all resolved, Governor, you didn’t inform me before coming."
"I can’t come?"
Han Min glanced at Jiang Ba, knowing about Shen Fei and the Jiang Family’s grievances, it seemed trivial to him, but if it upset Shen Fei, he’d say something.
"No problem, Governor come in!"
"Alright."
Han Min roughly understood what happened, simply stepping inside.
Jiang Ba quickly moved aside, waiting for Han Min to enter before carefully closing the door.
After walking out the door, Jiang Ba sighed in relief, seeing Jiang Lin’s bewildered face in the car.
And Jiang Ying with a blank expression, saying nothing.
Just said softly, "This is survival, when you are not strong enough.
You must know how to please the powerful, in the past you could bully others because the Jiang Family was strong, you had the backing of the Jiang Family.
But now, Shen Fei is the powerful one, earlier that was the Breaking Abyss Army’s Governor of South China. Do you understand what that means?"
Jiang Ba didn’t let Jiang Lin and Jiang Ying explain, but answered himself, "With just a word from him, the Jiang Family could vanish from Shencheng tomorrow, it’s that simple."
Jiang Lin took a deep breath, realizing that he and Shen Fei were already no longer in the same circle.
His former antagonism appeared ludicrous now, nodding, "I understand."
Seeing Jiang Lin’s face lacking the usual casual expression, Jiang Ba relaxed a bit, "As long as you understand."
