"Xiang Yunduan, did you force me to sign a document, making me give your family that piece of land in the middle of the lake, otherwise you wouldn't let me leave? Did that happen?"
The matter originated with her, and only she can resolve it by explaining things clearly herself.
"Zhizhi, what nonsense are you talking about? How could we be a shameless family? Your father has already rejected your uncle, so how could Yunduan possibly still be looking for you?"
"Zhizhi, I just asked you out to dinner, but when we got to the restaurant you started cursing at me, calling me a slut. I got angry and left, and then you..." He glanced at Shen Shixun, then quickly looked away, "...and you had someone come and beat me up."
Xiang Nanzhi was dumbfounded. How could she lie through her teeth in broad daylight?
Xiang Zhengyi's breath hitched. He had a pretty good idea of what was going on. Xiang Zhenggang sat up straight. "Now you're my older brother. I have to listen to you. If your daughter hits my daughter, I'd better not say a word and let you do whatever you want. Isn't that right?"
Shen Shixun understood. This family was deliberately causing trouble. Perhaps this whole thing was a trap from the beginning, forcing Xiang Nanzhi to take desperate measures and then deliberately cause trouble for Xiang Zhengyi, distorting the facts.
At the time, he was only thinking about protecting the women and children, and briefly lost his judgment, falling into their trap.
"Xiang Yunduan, weren't you so capable just now? You even had bodyguards watching me and following me to the toilet. Why are you silent now?"
Shen Shixun suddenly grabbed the woman's hand; it was too late to say anything now.
His intuition told him that there were still things going on within the Xiang family, especially between the brothers Xiang Zhengyi and Xiang Zhenggang, and that there were some secrets that couldn't be told to outsiders.
"Zhizhi, even now, are you still going to turn around and bite me? I've pulled up all the hotel's surveillance footage. Do you want to see it?"
Xiang Jingyi quickly said, "No need, you don't need to be so calculating with Zhizhi."
Xiang Yun wiped away her tears, thinking to herself, "Xiang Jingyi is indeed the most difficult to deal with. One sentence from him left her speechless."
Xiang Zhengyi's gaze lingered on Shen Shixun for a moment before falling on Xiang Nanzhi.
He knew perfectly well that Shen Shixun's attack on Xiang Yunduan was just a pretext; they didn't want to hear Shen Shixun's apology, they simply wanted Xiang Nanzhi to back down.
Xiang Zhenggang and he were brothers. This older brother had to win since he was a child. He was unwilling to admit defeat and was very concerned about his reputation.
Like begets like; a golden phoenix cannot grow out of a rat's nest.
"Zhizhi is so immature and caused such a big misunderstanding. It's my fault for spoiling her."
Xiang Nanzhi was speechless, "Dad..."
"Zhizhi, since you were in the wrong first, apologize to your sister Yun and say sorry. Your uncle and aunt are not petty people."
"Is an apology all it takes? Justice prevails! Our Yun Duan just returned to the country and suffered such a huge injustice. The trauma she's been through won't last long. Can an apology really make up for it?"
Xiang Zhengyi glanced at Xiang Zhenggang, who remained silent, picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "Zhengyi, you're now the richest man in the ancient city. You can have anything you want."
Xiang Zhengyi chuckled and personally poured some tea for Xiang Zhenggang. "Brother, it's a good thing that you're back in China to start your own business. We're all patriots, so staying in China is naturally the best option. Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you don't mind, I'll give you that piece of land in the middle of the lake at the original price."
"How can I do that? Wouldn't that put you in a difficult position?"
"No problem, Lao Li. Go prepare the contract and get this done today."
Wei Xia and Xiang Yunduan exchanged a glance, both understanding that the deal was done.
Xiang Zhenggang sighed, "Your tea is getting better and better, but Yun Duan is in such a state..."
“Zhizhi…”
Xiang Nanzhi kept receiving subtle hints from Xiang Jingyi, telling her not to talk nonsense, and she simply couldn't hold back anymore.
"Dad, that's not how it is at all. Why don't you believe me? It's clearly..."
"Apologize to Sister Yun."
Xiang Yunduan had already deleted all the surveillance footage at the restaurant, leaving only the footage that was in her favor. His men arrived late and got nothing. Old Li came over and he understood everything with just a glance.
"dad……"
"Have I spoiled you too much?"
Xiang Nan found it unbelievable. Looking at Xiang Yunduan, who was feigning pitifulness, and his uncle and aunt, Shen Shixun suddenly stood up. "One must take responsibility for one's actions. I was the one who laid a hand on someone..."
Xiang Nanzhi quickly stepped forward and bowed without hesitation, "Sister Yun, I'm sorry, it's all my fault today."
After saying that, tears welled up in her eyes, and she turned and went upstairs.
Xiang Zhengyi was also quite angry, but he still managed to force a smile. "Big brother, please excuse me. I've spoiled Zhizhi rotten over the years. Sehun... go up and take a look."
This was also to save face for him. Shen Shixun nodded, "Yes, Dad."
"Zhizhi is quite interesting; she apologized and then left."
The implication is that their family hasn't said anything about forgiving them yet.
"Uncle, this is too polite. I didn't ask for her apology. Why are you being so polite with your own sisters? It makes you seem distant."
Xiang Zhenggang glanced at him, "Zhizhi is growing more and more like her mother, just as beautiful as her mother..."
After these words were spoken, no one spoke again, and Old Ma quickly stepped forward to refill the tea.
As he left with the contract, Xiang Yunduan covered half of his swollen face and grinned from ear to ear.
After seeing Xiang Zhengyi and his family off, Xiang Jingyi and Xiang Ciyuan stood behind them, both with solemn expressions.
"You made Zhizhi apologize to her and even gave her a piece of land as compensation. You're being far too lenient with that family." Xiang Ciyuan usually wouldn't dare to speak to Xiang Zhengyi like this.
