Chapter 840: Apologize
Editor: Henyee Translations
When she heard that annoying name jump out of her Big Brother’s mouth, she subconsciously frowned.
Then, when she heard the contents of the conversation and what Jiang Weiyang needed her to do, Jiang Weiyang gave Jiang Wenxu an incredulous look.
“Why?!” She raised her voice and shouted indignantly.
In the huge living room, only Jiang Weiyang’s sharp and ear-piercing voice sounded, but Jiang Wenxu didn’t even frown. He only stood up calmly from the sofa, but his aura was still so strong that Jiang Weiyang subconsciously took a step back after shouting.
“You know the reason very well. Do you need me to say more?”
Seeing his Little Sister ask this, Jiang Wenxu only said one sentence.
After all, she was the sister whom he had doted on for so many years. Jiang Wenxu didn’t say it too bluntly.
Hearing Jiang Wenxu’s words, Jiang Weiyang fell silent after a moment.
Seeing her being like this, Jiang Wenxu also knew that she understood. He didn’t say anything else and only stood up and left the house.
Jiang Weiyang stood alone in the living room with a dark expression on her face. Her murderous aura made the servants hiding in the distance not dare to take a step closer.
No matter what Jiang Weiyang thought about this matter, Jiang Wenxu had made up his mind to make the other party apologize.
There had to be priorities. Compared to doting on his Little Sister, the company was clearly more important.
Hence, on the second day, he brought the unwilling Jiang Weiyang to the central hospital.
However, this time, he didn’t look for Murong Zheng. Instead, he knocked on the door of the ward. After receiving a response from inside, Jiang Wenxu pulled Jiang Weiyang inside.
It was early noon when they arrived, so there was no one in the ward. Murong Qiao was still holding the tablet and looking at something.
Murong Qiao originally wanted to pay attention to whether there was any entertainment news recently. When she heard the knock on the door, she subconsciously thought that it was Murong Zheng. In the end, when they walked in, it was not the people she expected to see.
Murong Zheng’s footsteps had always been extremely regular, but they were also restrained, like an extremely accurate clock.
“…It’s you.” Murong Qiao looked up and recognized the two guests.
Jiang Wenxu naturally smiled to express his friendliness this time.
“I brought my Little Sister over to apologize.” He went straight to the point.
With that, Jiang Wenxu stretched out his hand and pulled Jiang Weiyang. Jiang Weiyang, who was standing behind him, looked at the other party.
Jiang Weiyang was very unwilling, let alone now that she was holding her breath in front of Murong Qiao. She refused to speak or move and just stood there like a block of wood.
It was not until Jiang Wenxu frowned and pulled harder that Jiang Weiyang spoke reluctantly.
“I’m sorry.”
Her voice was bland, as if she was talking to a dead person. Her unwillingness had almost reached its peak.
Jiang Weiyang’s att.i.tude made Murong Qiao raise her eyebrows. She looked at Jiang Weiyang, who was clearly forced to apologize to her, and then at Jiang Wenxu, who had pulled his Little Sister over. Her expression was a little meaningful and scrutinizing.
Her expression seemed to be saying: “Are you really here to apologize?”
“Weiyang.” Jiang Wenxu emphasized with a warning tone. “Be serious.”
He looked at his sister, who didn’t seem to know the severity of the situation, and felt a headache in his heart. However, Jiang Weiyang couldn’t help but remain willful.
“If this is the att.i.tude of someone apologizing, I really can’t see how Young Miss Jiang is sorry.”
Murong Qiao put down the tablet in her hand and turned to look at Jiang Weiyang. Her tone was clearly so leisurely, but when it landed in Jiang Weiyang’s ears, it felt different.
“Don’t push your luck!”
Jiang Weiyang was originally unwilling to come over. Now that she heard Murong Qiao’s words, it added fuel to the fire.
“It was because of the venue at that time. Why should I apologize?”
Jiang Weiyang snorted righteously. Even as her Big Brother, Jiang Wenxu couldn’t take it anymore.
“Jiang Weiyang!” This time, he called her Little Sister’s full name, and his tone was not as doting as usual.
This serious tone stopped Jiang Weiyang from turning around and leaving.
“…”
The ward suddenly fell into an indescribable silence.
“I thought Young Master Jiang would be able to apologize more sincerely.” At this moment, Murong Zheng’s voice sounded from the door of the ward and entered the ears of the three people in the room.
When she saw that her Second Brother was here, Murong Qiao’s cold expression changed. She smiled and waved in the direction of the door.
Murong Zheng walked in and placed the lunch he had brought beside Murong Qiao. “Murong Chuan made it. He wanted me to ask if his skills have deteriorated.”
During the time that Murong Qiao was hospitalized, although Murong Chuan barely came over, the other party was in charge of all the food that Murong Qiao ate.
“When has his cooking not been a surprise?” Murong Qiao asked back as her answer.
The conversation between the two of them made Jiang Weiyang feel that she shouldn’t have come over in the first place. If not for her Big Brother’s pressure, she wouldn’t have appeared in front of Murong Qiao.
Seeing that Jiang Weiyang had no intention of apologizing again and was not sincere, Jiang Wenxu could only rub his head with a headache and take the initiative to look at Murong Qiao.
“I’m sorry, my sister isn’t very sensible…”
Now that the other party was right before him, he opened his mouth to help Jiang Weiyang apologize. They were all adults, so it was not impossible for Jiang Wenxu to take over the matter like this.
However, Murong Zheng clearly didn’t think so.
He carefully opened the packaging on the bento and handed it to Little Sister to confirm that it was suitable for her to eat. Only then did he turn his gaze to Jiang Wenxu, who had just spoken. He scanned the other party from head to toe. His usually cold and indifferent gaze revealed disdain.
“Young Miss Jiang’s apology is so insincere. I’m afraid we can’t do anything about the Jiang Family’s procedures and applications.”
When he said this, it was as if he was saying that if Jiang Weiyang didn’t apologize properly, they wouldn’t give the permissions to him. It would be a little unreasonable and self-righteous.
However, Jiang Wenxu knew very well that Murong Zhong indeed had the ability. In order to protect his Little Sister, he didn’t care about those things at all.
It was better to say that the Jiang Family was completely at a disadvantage and in a pa.s.sive position since they had a favor to ask.
This time, Jiang Wenxu didn’t say anything. He didn’t intend to apologize on behalf of his Little Sister. He just stood there in silence, giving Jiang Weiyang enough s.p.a.ce to speak.
Murong Qiao didn’t know what her Big Brother had done behind her back again, but looking at the current situation, she was quite willing to watch Jiang Weiyang make a fool of herself.
“Of course, Young Miss Jiang has the right to be willful. However, she’s also an adult now. She should consider the consequences of her stubbornness.”
“As far as I know, the Jiang Family is not the only one working on this project, right?”
Academics would more or less receive news about academic projects. Moreover, with Murong Zheng’s excellence, there were more than one company that looked for him.
These words couldn’t be clearer. They were like a hammer that struck Jiang Wenxu’s heart.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t apologize properly today. If the project is s.n.a.t.c.hed away by someone else, all the losses of the Jiang Family will be on Young Miss Jiang.”
