Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang Yan’s tone and expression were all too familiar to Jiang An. Her mother had been like this just now. She smiled and said, “Are you asking about Zou Bai and me?”
Now that she had already gotten her mother’s tacit approval, Jiang An was no longer as worried as before. It didn’t matter if her brothers knew.
However, Jiang Yan didn’t think so. He glared at Zou Bai. “When did you fall for An’an?”
Jiang Yan was older than Zou Bai. When they played together when they were young, the adults asked Zou Bai to call him older brother.
With such an experience, he wouldn’t be as afraid of Zou Bai as the others. No matter how bad the rumors were, in his impression, Zou Bai still looked like a child.
This time, he did not take it seriously when An’an became friends with Zou Bai after returning home. After all, the two of them had liked to play together when they were young. They had even said that they would be together when they grew up.
An’an and Zou Bai had a good relationship. Perhaps she had recalled what happened when she was young. That was a good thing.
But now, Zou Bai was actually together with An’an. This was simply a bolt from the blue.
Jiang Yan was different from his two younger brothers. He knew in detail what Zou Bai had done all these years and also knew how dangerous the Zou family’s undercurrents were.
When he was hired to go to court, he learned a lot about the Zou family. There were too many people who wanted Zou Bai dead.
If An’an were to be with him, she would have to face these things. That was not something he wanted to see.
Moreover, he had been secretly pursuing An’an and didn’t let them know. Jiang Yan wasn’t in a good mood.
Seeing her brother like this, Jiang An quickly went over and tugged at his sleeve. “Big Brother, Zou Bai and I are already together. Don’t object.”
“That’s right, Big Brother. Just agree,” Zou Bai said.
This ‘big brother’ was like a sudden clap of thunder. Jiang Yan immediately shouted, “Who’s your big brother? Don’t call me that!”
Jiang Huai had the same reaction back then. Seeing his brother like this, he felt comforted. Finally, he was not the only one suffering.
She turned around and saw that Jiang Xun’s expression was not very good either. He stared at Zou Bai as if he wanted to bore a hole through him.
The atmosphere at the scene was really not good, but Zou Yi and Zou Er stood far away. This was their master’s family matter, and they could not interfere.
Even if the two brothers wanted to hit someone, Master would not let them come over. Who asked him to be with someone else’s most precious little sister?
Jiang An naturally noticed their att.i.tude. She stepped forward to protect Zou Bai and told them everything again, including the fact that Zou Bai was the children’s father.
After hearing this, Jiang Yan and Jiang Xun’s expressions turned even worse. Jiang Yan gritted his teeth and said, “You actually let my sister experience such a thing. If we hadn’t found An’an, she would probably still be in the Tan family now.”
“When An’an gave birth, no one took care of her. Her body was not well, and she spent a long time recuperating. Now that you’re here to say that you’re the children’s father, 1 don’t think you’re worthy at all!” Jiang Xun said coldly.
The two of them scolded Zou Bai crazily. He could only lower his head and listen, not daring to say anything.
He also knew that he had let An’an down. If he had investigated carefully back then, it would not have taken so long. An’an was a child of the Jiang family, so she did not continue to suffer, but this did not make him feel better.
Jiang Huai watched as his two brothers scolded Zou Bai. The dignified Fourth Master Zou listened to their scolding without saying a word. This scene made him unable to believe his eyes. He opened his mouth a few times wanting to ask his brothers to stop. After all, this was the head of the Zou family.
But in the end, he didn’t say anything. Zou Bai seemed to be quite happy. On the other hand, his two brothers seemed to want to kill someone. If he opened his mouth, he would definitely be scolded too.
After scolding him enough, Jiang Yan and Jiang Xun sighed. They could only scold him but could not separate the two of them.
No matter how bad Zou Bai was, he was still someone An’an liked, not to mention that he was the children’s father. She couldn’t really cut ties with him.
They had scolded him just now to let him know that the Jiang family would not be afraid just because of his status. If they really bullied An’an, they would also take action.
Seeing that Zou Bai’s att.i.tude was still considered good, they stopped being angry.
Zou Bai knew that he had pa.s.sed the test. His entire body exuded a happy aura. Even when he bid Jiang An goodbye, he had a smile on his face.
Zou Yi leaned close to Zou Er’s ear and said, “Ever since Master got together with Miss Jiang, he’s been smiling more and more.”
“Master is in a good mood now that his wife and children are warming up.” Zou Er understood very well..
