"Brother-in-law, don't be ungrateful. If it weren't for A-Zi, I wouldn't have bothered to come see you!"
“You’ve seen it now, you can leave!” Jiang Wenlin said resentfully.
Seeing his inability to distinguish between close and distant relatives, Wan Tianci lost all his patience.
"Jiang Wenlin, wash your face with some cold water every now and then to clear your head, lest you be fooled by a villain! Have you ever seen someone so attentive to you before!"
Just as Jiang Wenlin was about to defend Liang Shaojie, Wan Tianci sneered, "Even a fool would know how this brat managed to fool you!"
Did he say he's blind and has no hope of future scientific expeditions, so he's helping you in the hopes that you can fulfill his wish?
As he spoke, he spat on the ground, "Jiang Wenlin, you're at least fifteen years old, wake up!"
If Liang Shaojie were truly a person of integrity and virtue, I would respect him as someone of importance! But he is not; he is a complete hypocrite!
A true gentleman doesn't only help others when he's in trouble himself! Think about it: if you had encountered problems and sought his help before, did he ever answer your questions?
"Now that he's blind and hopeless, he's just playing the victim in front of you, pretending to help you, but secretly he just wants you to remember his kindness so he can continue to freeload in the Marquis's mansion!"
Wan Tianci's phoenix eyes held a rare seriousness. "It's not so scary. After all, your mother is rich and can afford to support such an idle person!"
But what if this person's intentions go far beyond that? What if he wants more, or perhaps he can't bear to see others living in luxury because of his disability, and he sabotages you at the most crucial moment, causing you to fail the exam, or…
Wan Tianci glanced knowingly at Jiang Wenlin's right leg.
Jiang Wenlin, enraged, once again told Wan Tianci to get out, "You're so unruly and disrespectful, no wonder Azi looks down on you! Get out of here right now, or don't blame me for having Changxi kick you out!"
"Why is my brother so angry!"
Upon seeing Jiang Segu, Wan Tianci quickly went to her side, smiling like a male peacock, wishing he could spread his entire body out flat.
"Jiang Segu, you've finally arrived! You need to persuade your brother. He's been completely fooled by Liang Shaojie, just like you were before!"
Jiang Segu glanced at Wan Tianci, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Although Wan Tianci was a bit despicable and seemed unreliable, he turned out to be a very insightful person!
If only my brother were half as clear-headed as him!
Jiang Segu was originally hiding in her mother's courtyard to avoid Wan Tianci, but then she thought of her brother's leg injury and Wan Tianci's reckless nature. She was afraid that he would use her brother as a pawn to force her out, so she rushed over. She happened to meet Changxi who was looking for her, so she heard every word Wan Tianci said!
Seeing his complicated expression, which was not as hostile as before, Wan Tianci seized the opportunity and shamelessly said, "Jiang Segu, are you looking at me like that because you are deeply attracted by my handsome appearance?"
Jiang Segu quickly looked away and turned to Liang Shaojie, while scolding Changxi behind him.
"Changxi, I only allowed you to serve my brother because I thought you were sensible and clever. But look at you, letting just any dog or cat in here. It seems I'll have to call your parents to take you home!"
Changxi immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Don't blame Changxi, I'm the one who told him to call Cousin Liang! I'm his rightful master, so naturally he has to listen to me!"
"Brother-in-law, Jiang Segu is disciplining his servants, what are you interrupting for!" Wan Tianci stepped forward and covered Jiang Wenlin's mouth, smiling obsequiously at Jiang Segu, "You continue, I promise I won't let you say another word!"
Jiang Segu's eyes twitched. "Let go of my brother! His leg is still injured!"
Wan Tianci immediately let go of Jiang Segu's hand, took small steps to his side, and had a "See, I'm good, aren't I?" look on his face.
Jiang Segu felt a chill run down his spine!
She really couldn't understand how Wan Tianci, the little bully in everyone's eyes, could act like this in front of her!
"Take him and go first. I have something to say to my brother alone!"
Wan Tianci pouted, looking aggrieved. "Can't I just let Disheng take him away? I haven't seen you for 107 days since the New Year!"
Jiang Segu stared coldly at Wan Tianci, who dared not say anything more. He could only sternly retort to Liang Shaojie, "Let's go! Do you expect me to drag you away myself?"
Even as Liang Shaojie, whose face was as pale as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, did not forget to put on an act in front of Jiang Segu.
He walked up to Jiang Segu, "Cousin Azi, it's all my fault, please don't blame Brother Wenlin. Since Azi dislikes my coming to Huayang Pavilion, I... uh!"
"Go to hell!"
Wan Tianci kicked Liang Shaojie in the back of the knee, and Liang Shaojie knelt down in front of Jiang Segu.
"If you're going to apologize, at least do it properly. Stop babbling on like a woman and spouting a bunch of empty platitudes. It would be more effective for Jiang Segu to just kowtow and apologize!"
Wan Tianci let out a loud "ha!" and was about to spit at Liang Shaojie, but then he remembered that Jiang Segu was still there, so he had to swallow the words back down.
He said with a fawning expression, "Jiang Segu, do you think I'm right?"
She thought Jiang Segu would ignore her, but to her surprise, she heard a voice as beautiful as celestial music.
"Brother Wan is absolutely right. If everyone were as polite as Brother Wan, that would be wonderful!"
It turns out that there are some people you just can't be nice to!
"Jiang Segu, did I hear that right? You finally called me cousin? Say it again so I can hear it!"
Seeing Wan Tianci's smug look, Jiang Segu said she didn't have a cousin like that!
After Wan Tianci left with Liang Shaojie, Jiang Wenlin had prepared a lot of words to retaliate against Jiang Segu, but this time Jiang Segu did not say that Liang Shaojie was not allowed to come again, or that he was not allowed to see Liang Shaojie again, or to believe Liang Shaojie's words.
"Brother, you are older than me and have studied for so many years, so you naturally have the ability to distinguish right from wrong! You can find out for yourself what kind of person Liang Shaojie really is!"
Ah Zi wants to remind her brother that while one should not have the heart to harm others, one must be wary of others!
My cousin Wan usually seems unreliable, but his words today have made me look at him in a new light! Brother, you should really consider whether what he said makes sense!
"Since my two aunts are coming today, I imagine my brother will also have lunch with them. Let Changxi help you with your washing and grooming!"
Jiang Wenlin, who was full of words but had no opportunity to use them, was also incredulous.
"So you're not going to stop Cousin Liang from coming?"
Jiang Segu shook his head, "Even if you stopped them, you still met secretly!"
Jiang Wenlin scratched his head sheepishly and assured Jiang Segu that he would be vigilant at all times and would tell her immediately if he noticed anything wrong with Liang Shaojie!
