“Can you give me a ride?” he lifted his hand slightly, “I can’t drive with this hand.”

If it hadn’t been for his intervention, it would have been Wen Changling who got scalded, she had no reason to refuse, so she nodded in agreement. Before she left, she made a call to Jhiang Youyou and asked Dai Qiu to deliver the wedding gift money on her behalf.

The Guan Family was hosting a banquet, and the entire Gu Yihuan family had arrived. His mother, Madam Guan Zhengming, pulled him aside and scolded him thoroughly, disapproving of his insincerity and the perfunctory gift he brought.

Gu Yihuan felt wronged.

After being scolded, he sat at the table farthest from the elders, which was full of young people. His cousin, Gu Kaiyun was also at that table.

“Has Fourth Brother not arrived yet?”

Gu Kaiyun said, “Your grandfather called him over.”

Guan Musheng was aware of Xie Shang being kicked out of the Xie Family by Xie Jingxian when he visited him in his illness; he intended to help mend the relationship between the grandson and grandfather, so he invited Xie Shang for a talk.

At the table, Gu Yihuan’s mischievous friends asked, “Yihuan, what gift did you bring this time?”

“What’s it to you what gift I bring.”

One of Gu Yihuan’s buddies spoke up, “He brought a gold pig.”

Gu Yihuan liked to give gold as gifts. He had previously given Guan Musheng a gold turtle for his birthday, which was why Madam Guan Zhengming accused him of being perfunctory.

“A gold pig?” his mischievous friend teased, “That’s a bit tacky, isn’t it?”

Gu Yihuan broke off a piece of pastry and tossed it into his mouth, with a deliberately nonchalant expression, he said, “For my birthday next year, you guys won’t need to worry about the gifts, I like tacky things.”

His friends all laughed.

Song Sanfang chided him, “Who asks for gifts like that? Have you no shame?”

Gu Yihuan kicked under the table at Song Sanfang, missed, and hit Gu Kaiyun instead. Gu Kaiyun gave a slight glance, and the person in question immediately settled down, straightened up, and behaved himself, sipping his tea properly. Bloodlines exert their pressure.

Xie Shang came downstairs and checked the guests at each table; Wen Changling had not arrived yet.

Gu Yihuan immediately gestured, “Fourth Brother, over here.”

He gave up his seat to Xie Shang and nudged a young gentleman behind him, leading everyone else to move back a seat. Xie Shang sat between the two Gu brothers. Once he arrived, the atmosphere at the table became less relaxed than before; no one joked around anymore, and everyone was silent.

The issue with the KE Law Firm was making waves in the capital, and with Xie Shang having even put his own father in jeopardy, everyone regarded him as ruthless and avoided provoking him.

Xie Shang hadn’t finished his cup of tea when He Dongzhou’s call came through.

“Just now, Old Lady Qin made a scene at the Guan family’s doorstep and even splashed boiling water on someone. From the description, it sounded like Wen Changling.”

Xie Shang hung up and called Wen Changling. Gu Kaiyun noticed the change in his expression and asked what happened, but Xie Shang didn’t have time to explain.

Luckily, Wen Changling answered.

“Where are you?”

She said, “Dihong Hospital.”

Xie Shang got up and left his seat.

Gu Kaiyun saw Miss Wen’s name on the contact list and didn’t ask any further questions.

“Fourth Brother,” Gu Yihuan’s large eyes filled with confusion, “the engagement party hasn’t even started, where are you going?”

Xie Shang left without a word.

Gu Yihuan tilted his head at his cousin, seeking an answer, but his cousin just sipped tea in silence.

*****

Dihong Hospital.

The duty emergency doctor was Doctor Zhao, who could tell that cooling had been applied upon seeing the scald: “The emergency treatment was very well done, the scald isn’t severe, no need for hospitalization, just disinfection and dressing. Come back the day after tomorrow for a dressing change.”

After bandaging was complete, Doctor Zhao also prescribed some topical ointments.

After Doctor Zhao left, Wen Changling thanked Jiang Chengxue, “Thank you.”

Jiang Chengxue adjusted his sleeves and tossed the cufflinks he had taken off into the trash can, “Is that all, just verbal thanks?”

Wen Changling had a righteously indignant expression, “Benevolence seeks no recompense.”
