After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zhiyong knocked on Jiang Yanshu's office door.

"Knock knock!"

"Please come in!"

"Chief, you wanted to see me?"

Jiang Yanshu nodded.

"Okay, go and bring over the two elders of the Deng family, Deng Yongchang and the others. Also, tell them what Deng Jingming and the others have been doing these past two days, and see how they react."

"Should we invite them all over?"

"Um!"

"Okay, I'll be right there!"

Jiang Yanshu nodded, and Xiao Zhiyong turned and left, driving straight to the Deng family's house.

On the other side, Deng Jingming, Lü Xiuping, and others had been invited into the office. The more unrestrained Lü Xiuping had been outside, the more terrified she was now.

Looking at the solemn and dignified decorations in the conference room and the quiet atmosphere around her, Lü Xiuping's mind was in complete turmoil.

"Jingming, do you think we'll get into trouble? This place feels a bit eerie, it's scary!"

Lü Xiuping wasn't the only one who was afraid; Deng Jingming's heart was also pounding.

"No, no way...it shouldn't be that bad..."

The little boy, Deng Xuan, was still in Chu Cuifen's arms. When Lü Xiuping threw a tantrum, she had left the child in Chu Cuifen's care.

"Ah... Eeya... Mama, Mama..."

The little guy was fussing and wanted to find Lü Xiuping, but unfortunately Lü Xiuping was too upset to comfort the child.

"Stay put at your aunt's place and don't cause any trouble!"

At this shout, Deng Xuan's temper flared up, and he started crying and making a fuss. The entire conference room became noisy, with the children's cries giving the adults a headache.

"Why are you yelling at him? Hurry up and comfort him, look what you've done!"

After being reprimanded by Deng Jingming, Lü Xiuping reluctantly took the child.

Her attitude was as if the child wasn't her own; there wasn't a trace of maternal love in her.

After finishing the last document in his hand, Jiang Yanshu got up and went to his office. At the same time, Xiao Zhiyong also brought the Deng family over, and they were now at the front door.

The conference room door suddenly opened, and the people who had been waiting for a long time immediately stood up in surprise upon hearing the noise.

Upon seeing Jiang Yanshu enter, the group began to fawn over him:

"Uncle, you look even more impressive today than before!"

Jiang Yanshu frowned slightly, ignoring Lü Xiuping's flattery, and instead looked at Deng Jingming and asked:

"I heard you got beaten up? Was it Lele who did it?"

Deng Jingming was taken aback by Jiang Yanshu's directness and was momentarily speechless.

"This...this...."

Seeing him like this, Lü Xiuping became anxious and, disregarding Jiang Yanshu's expression, spoke directly:

"Yes, Uncle, it was my cousin who hit me. Look at my face."

"Jingming is her cousin, how could he hit her so hard? Look, he's injured his head!"

"Your aunt and I are not married, so let's skip the title of 'uncle'!"

Since you say Lele hit you, then I have to ask, why did Lele hit you? Did you do something to upset her?

"Aunt..."

Lu Xiuping was about to speak when she was frightened by Jiang Yanshu's cold and sharp gaze, and she trembled and could not speak.

“Deng Jingming, you say it yourself, you're a man too, don't always rely on women to talk to you.”

"I...Aunt...Uncle Jiang...we just wanted our cousin to put in a good word for us, we didn't mean to upset her..."

No matter how many arguments they had discussed beforehand, now that they were actually in front of Jiang Yanshu, they were all like timid quails, cowering and insignificant.

With just a single, indifferent glance from Jiang Yanshu, Deng Jingming felt as if he had been seen through, and all his lies were exposed before him.

"Knock knock knock"

The conference room door was knocked on again, and then Xiao Zhiyong led the Deng family members in.

Seeing that his grandparents and parents had arrived, Deng Jingming became even more nervous, and Lü Xiuping was also terrified.

Jiang Yanshu glanced at the group of people, then took a few steps forward to greet them.

"Thank you for making this trip, Elder Deng. Please come in and have a seat!"

"Not at all, it's my own child who's been a disappointment and caused you trouble!"

"Kids are young, it's normal for them to be immature. We'll just have to teach them properly in the future."

"You're right, we need to teach them properly, otherwise my Deng family will be ruined by these few people!"

"grandfather...."

"grandfather...."

Upon hearing Deng Yunbo's words, Deng Jingming and Deng Jingyang couldn't help but speak up.

Deng Yunbo turned to look at the two of them, his eyes filled with anger, and slammed his cane heavily on the ground.

"You insolent fool, you don't know your place, how dare you cause trouble here!"

"Wah...waaaah..."

The stern tone, the heavy atmosphere, and the loud noise immediately frightened Deng Xuan into tears.

Looking at his great-grandson, Deng Yunbo felt a pang of reluctance.

"Bringing a child out to fool around is utterly absurd!"

Then Deng Yunbo turned to his eldest daughter-in-law and said:

Go and bring your grandson over here!

"Yes, Dad!"

Following Shen Feiyao's actions, Deng Yunbo said to Jiang Yanshu with a face full of apology:

"The child is too young. I would like to trouble Comrade Jiang to arrange a separate place so that we adults can talk in peace!"

Jiang Yanshu nodded.

"Zhiyong, take him to the rest room next door!"

"Yes, Chief!"
