Chapter 398 Father and Daughter Discuss



In the study.

The father and daughter each had their own thoughts.

There was a sense of oppression in the silence.

It wasn't until the clock on the wall chimed that Jiang Zetian finally turned his gaze to Jiang Xinyu.

Jiang Zetian asked in a deep voice, "Xinyu, are you sure you heard what happened that day clearly?"

Jiang Xinyu was taken aback, not quite understanding why her father would suddenly ask the same question again.

But he didn't think too much about it and nodded seriously: "Yes, Father, I did hear Grandpa say that to her when I happened to pass by that day."

"..."

After receiving confirmation again, Jiang Zetian frowned and remained silent.

Jiang Zetian fell silent again, and Jiang Xinyu didn't know what to say next. The atmosphere was already somewhat oppressive, and her father's expression only added to the tension.

In particular, when she saw the thought that had crossed Jiang Zetian's eyes and his resolve gradually harden, Jiang Xinyu softly called out, "Father..."

Jiang Zetian snapped out of his daze and stared at Jiang Xinyu.

Jiang Xinyu was a little scared by that direct gaze, but she just pursed her lips slightly and didn't panic.

Jiang Zetian noticed this, but instead of softening his tone, he slowly said, "Daughter, I believe what you said. Although she was burdened with marrying that live-in son-in-law in your place, things have now come to this point, and I, your father, have to make some choices."

"Father, what do you want to do?"

"I?"

Jiang Zetian paused for a moment, then continued in a deep voice, "Naturally, we should think of a solution that satisfies both sides."

Jiang Xinyu did not answer. She did not understand what the sentence meant, nor could she guess what Jiang Zetian was thinking.

Seeing this, Jiang Zetian did not hide anything, after all, she was his own daughter and the family member he trusted most.

Moreover, Jiang Xinyu is aware of this plan.

"Xinyu, I've decided that I still need to take action against Jiang Shiyu."

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xinyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Jiang Zetian explained, "Although this is not much different from our previous plan, and can even be said to be exactly the same, given that she has only recently encountered this incident, we should not continue for a while. Moreover, given her personality, it will be very difficult to get her out again after this incident."

Jiang Zetian's explanation was followed by Jiang Xinyu's silence.

Jiang Zetian had been silent for so long, deep in thought, but the ultimate solution was still to make Jiang Shiyu disappear.

And this is also the best way.

Otherwise, we wouldn't have chosen to do this in the first place.

But the first attempt had failed. Although they were somewhat unwilling, the intervention of the Tianjin Guard meant that no matter how much they wanted to deal with Jiang Shiyu, they would need some time to let things fade away.

Look for another opportunity.

However, judging from Jiang Zetian's tone, there was no room for doubt.

Jiang Xinyu had a strange feeling that her father seemed even more eager than she was to make Jiang Shiyu disappear as soon as possible.

It was a strange feeling, but also a certainty.

"Father, I agree with your opinion, but is it really the right time for us to take action now?"

Jiang Xinyu asked worriedly, "We've already failed once. If we rush things now, it's impossible not to arouse suspicion. Besides, there's that Tianjin Guard involved. If we send more people to do it, the result won't change much."

Jiang Zetian did not refute Jiang Xinyu's words, but nodded seriously and said, "You are right. We must learn from our first failure and not repeat the same mistake."

Jiang Zetian continued, "I know what you're worried about, and I understand that taking action again under the current circumstances would arouse great suspicion. Even if we don't leave a trace, the blame will still fall on us."

"Moreover, now the Tianjin Guard has also been involved. You may not know their strength and observation methods, but I can tell you that the Tianjin Guard is someone we cannot afford to provoke."

In fact, Jiang Zetian didn't really understand what kind of entity the Tianjin Guard was. If he hadn't been learning from the old man, his knowledge would have been greatly broadened.

They probably didn't even know that the Tianjin Guard, such a special force, existed in this world.

Jiang Zetian still remembers very clearly what the old man meant when he talked about the Tianjin Guard.

The fear and seriousness I felt just from hearing his name are still vivid in my mind.

However, the old man did not tell him much in detail, only instructing him not to oppose the Tianjin Guard if he encountered them.

Anyone who dares to oppose the Tianjin Guard, no matter how powerful their background or how immense their authority, will ultimately face utter ruin and endless regret.

to this end.

Jiang Zetian was also curious during that time.

On the surface, he obeyed the old man's words and promised not to oppose the Tianjingwei. At the same time, he said that he would behave himself and would never do anything that violated the laws of nature or would bring ruin to the Jiang family.

But secretly, he sent out his trusted confidants to conduct an investigation.

After all, Jiang Zetian had known the old man for so many years and had never seen the old man so wary of anything or any power.

In the end, however, nothing was gained, as if this special force had never existed.

If it weren't for the people secretly observing and discovering the whereabouts of the Tianjin Guards, Jiang Zetian wouldn't have known much more.

He also told Jiang Xinyu about it.

“Father, I don’t understand.”

"What don't you understand?"

Jiang Xinyu asked in confusion, "Since you know how terrifying the Tianjin Guards are, and you also know that continuing to attack is inappropriate, and you are well aware of the problems, Father, why..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Zetian raised his hand to stop him: "It is precisely because I know this that I will continue to act."

"..."

Jiang Xinyu was confused; she didn't understand what her father was thinking.

Jiang Zetian smiled and said, "Xinyu, as I said before, I've thought of a win-win solution. This solution will not only prevent them from suspecting us, but it will also help you get rid of the marriage your grandfather arranged for you..."

Jiang Zetian told Jiang Xinyu about his plan.

Jiang Xinyu, who had been listening attentively, went from being confused to gradually shocked. Afterwards, she asked with concern, "Father, is this method feasible?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zetian laughed and said, "Xinyu, don't you still trust your father?"

Jiang Xinyu did not answer this question.

She naturally trusted Jiang Zetian, after all, he was her father.

Regardless of his status, as the current acting head of the Jiang family, his wisdom and strategic planning abilities are highly respected by his clan.

No matter which point.

Jiang Xinyu believed it all.

only.

Jiang Zetian's plan is risky.

Although the possibility of failure has been reduced, what if someone finds out, or accidentally lets it slip?

The father and daughter have a great responsibility to bear.

Of course, Jiang Zetian's plan was indeed feasible.

If the assassination attempt on Jiang Shiyu is to continue, the first failure must not be allowed to happen again.

They also had to be wary that the Tianjin Guard might trace the clues back to them.
