"That's something Mr. Zhou really can't do, after all, he's not familiar with the King of Hell."

"Haha, because I didn't promise him I'd throw a tantrum with my wife in the next life, I never expected you to be like this, Mr. Jiang."

"It is indeed a bit difficult."

Jiang Xingye logged on and commented in the comments section: "She didn't even bother to give me a perfunctory reply before saying she wanted to live a different life. Shouldn't I be angry?"

Netizens: '......'

"So, what made President Jiang angry was that I wasn't being accommodating?"

"A man's love-struck mind is his best dowry!"

So how did Director Ning finally appease him?

"You don't understand. A person with a romantic mindset is adept at self-control; you can't fool them."

The comments section was hilarious, pushing the two accounts to a new level of popularity, and the phrase "If you're not familiar with the King of Hell, you can't book your next life" also became a popular meme!

On the Jiang family's side, the older generations weren't very sensitive to these things. Among Jiang Xingye's peers, the one who hated him the most, Jiang Xingyu, was on medical parole, so even if he saw it, he could only be powerless and furious.

"Jiang Xingye, just wait. Once I catch my breath, I won't let you get away with this. You don't deserve to be happy."

Life was destined not to go as he wished. Two years after Jiang Xingye left, the Jiang family was constantly exposed for criminal cases, such as illegal imprisonment and illegal abuse of power. They were involved in all sorts of crimes. The old man was exhausted from dealing with them. Finally, the fire spread to his eldest son. The old man couldn't catch his breath and suffered a minor stroke.

After receiving the message, Jiang Xingye twirled his phone in his hand a couple of times and said to Ning Wei, "I have to go back and make a gesture."

"I'll go back with you."

"No need."

"No, I'm worried. Wait for me, I'll take my annual leave right away," Ning Wei said firmly.

"Okay." Jiang Xingye felt a sweet warmth in his heart: "Then you have to stick close to me and don't get separated from me."

"We should all avoid being alone and avoid going to any remote places."

"Mm." Jiang Xingye was happy, and his way of expressing it was very direct. Ning Wei almost overslept the next day and missed her flight.

Tan Younian picked him up at the airport and complained in the car, "Look at you, you finally got out of there, why did you come back to wade into these messy waters?"

Jiang Xingye said in a relaxed tone: "I'm a bit of an internet celebrity now, so I can't let people criticize me. After all, he's my grandfather, so I have to visit him in the hospital."

While we're at it, let's smear the old man's image with a layer of shit. Doesn't he care about his reputation? Then let's peel off the whole facade of the Jiang family.

"Tch, just to show off his love and become an internet celebrity, he even wants to reserve a next life with the King of Hell." Tan Shao sneered at him.

Jiang Xingye was very proud and raised his head: "Yeah, I'm better than you. It was Xu Lingling who broke the window paper with a rope."

Tan Younian: "..."

"No, how did you know?"

"Really?" Jiang Xingye asked with great interest.

Ning Wei: "Young Master Tan is driving, so you can be more exciting later."

"understood."

Tan Shao: I'm so frustrated! These two are devils!

"How about we get together tomorrow? Let's invite Fu Ciyuan; it's been so long since I've seen him."

"Okay, it's been a long time since we last met?" Jiang Xingye asked curiously.

"I took on a project for my family's company these past two years, and I've been very busy. As for Ciyuan," Tan Shao carefully chose his words, "he's been just like before, even more decadent. I can't keep up with his pace, so we've been in touch less."

They all seemed to be moving forward, except for Fu Ciyuan, who stayed behind. After getting engaged, he and his fiancée agreed to go their separate ways. He went to see Yu Qiao, but it didn't go well. He even tried to force himself on her, but no one knows how Yu Qiao handled it. In any case, it didn't work out in the end.

Their gathering ultimately did not take place.

After resting for one night, Jiang Xingye went to see the old man alone the next day.

"Hoshino, you're here?"

Jiang Xingye looked down at the old man on the bed. The man who used to frighten him with just a glance now looked like a dried orange, his body shriveled, his complexion weak, and his mouth slightly crooked, revealing the signs of his twilight years.

So, he wasn't invincible after all!

Jiang Xingye thought to himself, "Luckily I acted early, otherwise it would have been a real pity if I had died on my own!"

"Grandpa, are you alright?"

"It's alright. I'm glad you came to see me. Hoshino, you are the smartest child in the Jiang family. Now that the Jiang family is in great trouble, only you can save them."

"Grandpa, they've broken the law. How can I save them?" Jiang Xingye asked coldly.

Grandpa Jiang's thinking was slow. He seemed oblivious to Jiang Xingye's coldness and coaxed him with eager words: "Xingye, Grandpa has the highest hopes for you, which is why I gave you so much money to start your own business. You're doing very well now. Your uncle and the others are just doing what many businessmen do. Now that our family has been targeted, doesn't your girlfriend have good connections with the political circles here? Have her think of a solution."

"Ning Wei isn't that kind of person. She's law-abiding, upright, and wouldn't do such a thing even if it meant compromising herself."

"Then go and beg her. The Jiang family is rich. As long as you save the Jiang family, money is no problem. You can give it to anyone. There is a card in the safe in my study. It is Grandpa's private property. Take it out and figure out a way."

Jiang Xingye's eyes grew colder. He gave a few perfunctory words, turned and left the ward, where he met Lawyer Xiang at the door.

"Hoshino, you've come to see your grandfather?" The lawyer looked at him with a probing gaze. This poor little boy, who had lived a difficult life since childhood, had grown up in a way that was completely beyond his expectations, making him unable to understand him.

He was terrified that Jiang Xingye might take pity on him. He was already walking a tightrope, and if Jiang Xingye, whom he couldn't figure out, were to make a move, he didn't think he could get away with it unscathed.

"Grandpa wanted me to save the Jiang family, and he even gave me the combination to the safe." Jiang Xingye lowered his eyelids, his emotions unreadable.

"You agreed?" the lawyer asked nervously.

"I don't know, I... I don't know either." His tone was very hesitant.

Attorney Xiang's heart sank. He stepped aside to let Jiang Xingye leave and glared fiercely at the ward.

That evening, Jiang Xingye received a recording.

"Mr. Jiang wants Hoshino to take action? He's only been away for two years, his wings aren't fully grown yet, what could he possibly do?"

Old Jiang's voice was weak but firm: "As long as he and Ning Wei do their best, they can always save a part of it. The Jiang family cannot fall, absolutely cannot fall."

"But wouldn't this just drag Hoshino and Ning Wei into the mire?"

"Those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles. If it weren't for me back then, Jiang Xingye would have been killed by the second brother's family countless times. It's time for him to repay me."

"But Ning Wei is not easy to control."

"As long as I have Jiang Xingye, that's all that matters. Back then, when I used Jiang Xingye's freedom as a threat, Ning Wei still wouldn't let go of the kidnapping issue."

"What do you mean, no? Xingyu is still carrying a case, he's just keeping it a secret that he's been released on medical parole. Ningwei probably doesn't know about this."

"Then let's not let her know now. Before we find out about Jiang Xingyu, let's make him get out of the country and never come back."

Old Mr. Jiang was getting on in years and had even suffered a stroke, so his mind was slow and he didn't realize he'd been tricked into revealing information.
