The atmosphere in the private room grew even more awkward due to Jiang Chengsi’s words, adding a sinister hue.

Not having this face?

This slap was indeed loud and clear.

You Hongxian held a wine bottle, his smile stiff. Standing to the side, he slightly hunched his back, exuding humility and helplessness. A middle-aged man over fifty, with such a flattering demeanor, yet being slapped in the face inevitably evokes a hint of pity.

”Chengsi.” The old lady frowned, softly halting his behavior.

”Lady Jiang, it’s... it’s nothing.” You Hongxian laughed dryly, showing humility.

”Mr. You, I really apologize. It’s my lack of proper guidance, please don’t take it to heart.” At this moment, the Si family was right across, and although the old lady knew You Hongxian’s words weren’t pleasant, she couldn’t possibly watch a direct conflict unfold between the two.

”He’s just a child, how could I take it to heart.” You Hongxian chuckled morosely.

Jiang Chengsi smiled coldly, ”Mr. You, of course you wouldn’t take it to heart, but what did you mean by your words earlier?”

”What does it mean to bow my head and apologize, what does it mean that past events are over, what does it mean to be unimportant!”

”The dirty water wasn’t poured on you, so naturally you speak as if it’s easy!”

He suddenly raised his hand, causing the cups and plates in front of him to collide with a crisp, piercing crashing sound.

”I...” You Hongxian seemed a bit lost, ”That’s not what I meant...”

”Then what do you mean!” Jiang Chengsi suddenly stood up, his demeanor, originally reckless and arrogant, became even more unruly.

”Let me admit wrong, then you tell me, what did I do wrong, that you want me to bow my head!”

”Firstly, I have no relationship with the person in the photo. It was purely reporters taking pictures and fabricating. Now I’m being attacked and mocked, and you want me to apologize and let this pass lightly?”

”You want me to admit that during the relationship, I was ambiguous with another woman, claiming infidelity and cheating, is that what you mean?”

”Jiang Chengsi, your words are just...” You Hongxian was so anxious his face reddened, looking awkward and inarticulate.

”Chengsi, enough, sit down first.” Fan Mingyu urgently got up to pull him.

”Fourth brother!” Even Jiang Zhenhuan spoke out to reprimand, having come over with the intention to clarify things, yet now the situation had become extremely awkward.

”Mr. You, you organized this gathering today, claiming it’s to make amends for your past mistakes, then why not invite all those offended, why not invite Auntie and them?”

”I see that the purpose of today’s gathering is not as straightforward as it seems...”

”It’s obvious you’re here to cause trouble!”

Jiang Chengsi spoke bluntly, with arrogance and depth in his eyes that pierced You Hongxian.

You Hongxian’s mind was shaken. He knew Jiang Chengsi was rebellious; he was deliberately provoking him. However, with the Si family present, he thought Jiang Chengsi would surely have a limit, but who would’ve thought he would be so reckless.

His intentions were exposed, heart trembling wildly, yet he forced himself to calm down.

”My dinner today, it’s indeed not just for a simple meal, not inviting the Shen or Huo family...” You Hongxian sighed, ”That’s because I wanted to gather everyone involved in recent events together.”

”Everyone gathered to speak openly.”

”I know you and Xiaoxiao are deeply in love, and I don’t want to see you two disrupt because of this online mess, my intentions are truly good.”

...

You Hongxian spoke sincerely, appearing as if he suffered a great grievance.

”I know I’ve done too many wrongs before, you’re not wrong saying that I don’t have this face, I was overconfident, too full of myself, lacking the ability yet wanting to be the mediator.”

You Hongxian looked heartbroken and helpless, glancing at all those present, ”Everyone... I’m sorry, for, turning things into this, it was still my unpleasant words, this is all my fault.”

”Originally it’s your fault, and now you’re talking as if aggrieved.” Jiang Chengsi sneered lightly.

At this moment, the states of the two, one older yet humble and small, the other younger yet overly aggressive.

The lower You Hongxian’s posture became, the more it highlighted Jiang Chengsi’s unrestrained arrogance and wildness.

Tang Wan glanced at everyone beside her, unexpectedly, none of Jiang Family’s brothers stepped in to mediate, allowing him to cause chaos, even infuriating the old lady to the point of a grim expression.
