“My secret letter was to send the mission information back to the Emperor; there was no news that was detrimental to my elder brother,” Jiang Chengli shook his head.
He was consumed by hatred, his eyes glued to Xing Xiaoya, and he had neglected many other things.
After all, in his previous lives, he had tried his best to salvage the situation, resorting to threats, bribes, murder, arson, and even praying to Buddha. He had tried both literary and martial methods, but all of them were in vain.
Later on, he no longer had the energy to save them, and he only focused on Xing Xiaoya, hoping that by holding her back, he could delay the death of the Jiang family.

He actually sensed that something was wrong with Jiang Chengli, but he didn't know how to appease him. After all, he only knew how to beat people up and didn't really know how to coax them. And the third brother seemed unwilling to say anything more.
It's better to leave this kind of thing to his wife, so he thought he should persuade her to go home first.
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Chengli refused abruptly, saying, "No, I can't go back!"
