Chapter 159 What if my family members are bad people?
Jiang Manxi slowly raised her hand and carefully rubbed the tip of her nose before she remembered to respond to his concern.
"fine."
This man's chest muscles are so well developed, he is indeed the descendant of a warlord, his physical strength must be...
Ugh, what a mess she was thinking.
But when she looked up and saw Zeng Yichen's panic-stricken look, Jiang Manxi also began to feel confused.
Why is he looking so flustered?
Shit... Did you think she was trying to scam me?
Thinking about it, Jiang Manxi was about to explain, but she didn't know how to start. Suddenly, she felt her face getting hotter and hotter. She panicked and simply turned around to chase Chi Tao.
"Eh..." Zeng Yichen looked at her fleeing back with a confused look on his face, still feeling a little scared.
Her nose was so red that her face turned a little red too. Is she really okay?
He quickly followed.
Professor Ji’s office.
The three of them sat around the sofa in the reception area, and Jiang Manxi actively shared her specialties.
Fortunately, she brought three plates, thinking that if Sister Xiao Leng might be there, she could have some of her favorite cake, but unfortunately she was not there.
Zeng Yichen nervously looked at Jiang Manxi's still red nose, feeling uneasy.
It turns out that the daughter of a wealthy family is really so weak... She is so precious, so small, and the risk of getting hit easily is so great...
Unlike the fake Zeng Qianer, who fell into the sewer but didn't suffer any internal injuries... What a pity.
Chi Tao frowned and looked at Zeng Yichen.
This kid is really stubborn. Looking at his eyes, it seems that he is just worried about breaking the other person's nose. Other than that, he doesn't show any sympathy at all.
This EQ is not much higher than that chicken shit EQ...
She turned her eyes to look at Jiang Manxi again. The girl's face was still slightly flushed. I don't know why such a good child fell in love with that idiot.
Although he is definitely a handsome guy, his family background... was okay in the past, but not necessarily in the future.
The key point is that this straight guy is stubborn and has no understanding of romance!
Her former sister-in-law must be matched with a better man!!
But the most troublesome thing now is that if Manxi is here, how can she get Zeng Yichen to talk...
"Okay, enjoy!" Jiang Manxi divided the cake, her face full of confidence.
"Okay!" Chi Tao was not polite at all. He took the plate in front of him first, picked up a big piece with a fork, and put it into his mouth without any preparation.
Just for that second, she was stunned.
Damn, what kind of cake is this? Why is it a bit salty and a bit sticky...
Seeing Chi Tao's reaction, Jiang Manxi thought she was impressed by her cake and became more confident.
"It's delicious, right? After all, even Miss Leng praised it."
Chi Tao dodged silently, lowered his face, and nodded in a businesslike manner, feeling puzzled.
Shit? ? Professor Ji really praised me? ? Is she crazy or does she have a taste disorder?
It can't be that the chicken shit EQ is blessed, right? ?
Seeing her nod, Jiang Manxi became even more proud. She didn't doubt that she was just being perfunctory. She introduced her inspiration with great interest, "My work is named "Happy Harmony"
Chi Tao swallowed the cake in her mouth with difficulty, bit the spoon, raised her head, and asked in a flattering manner, "Please tell me your story."
"Happy and harmonious naturally refers to the family," Jiang Manxi also shared generously,
"In this world, family is always a person's greatest confidence and support. No matter how powerful a person is, he still needs the support of his family. Family happiness is the source of all a person's energy."
Chi Tao nodded in approval and was about to say a few more words of commercial praise.
The lonely male voice next to me suddenly interrupted.
"What if...the family is a bad person?"
"Huh?" Jiang Manxi turned around after hearing the voice, and was very puzzled by the incoherent words.
Zeng Yichen raised his head and looked at her, his eyes had a faint light, like the last hope in the abyss of despair.
"I mean...if you knew that your loved one did something very bad, something so bad that you couldn't accept it...even if you didn't believe it, it was the truth. What would you do? Would you make the truth public, or bury it for the sake of family affection and then hypnotize yourself for the rest of your life?"
Jiang Manxi was a little surprised, but seeing him struggling and suppressing his pain, she lowered her eyes and thought seriously, trying to imagine what it would be like if her loved one did what she thought was the worst thing.
Chi Tao glanced at Zeng Yichen, and she seemed to understand something.
Very bad thing...
He must have discovered something, could it be some evidence or something?
But then again, it seems that this child has not inherited the viciousness of his father and brother. The justice in his innocence and stupidity really comes from the bottom of his heart.
Otherwise, he would have no reason to be so conflicted and upset.
That’s good. She hadn’t figured out how to trick him into thinking something, but Manxi, this little lucky guy, tricked her into thinking something.
"I will make it public." Jiang Manxi replied firmly.
Zeng Yichen was a little shocked, "But... they are your relatives, can you really do this?"
Jiang Manxi bit her lip, with a look of pain and helplessness between her brows.
"Maybe it's difficult... But my father said that you should always do what you think is right, because that's the only way to live a clear conscience. If a person cannot live a clear conscience, then life is nothing more than an invisible cage for him, and he will completely lose his freedom throughout his life."
Zeng Yichen unconsciously clenched his fists. Her words were like arrows, piercing his heart, but he still struggled hard.
"But... they are relatives..."
He could only weakly repeat this defense without any offensive power.
"Because they are my relatives," Jiang Manxi answered suddenly, "I don't want to see my relatives plant the seeds of evil karma. Since I know that my relatives have taken the wrong path, I should not watch them stray further and further away from the truth, but should pull them back to the right path."
Zeng Yichen loosened his fist, and suddenly all his strength was drained away. The light in his eyes seemed to have been completely extinguished. He opened his mouth weakly.
"What if the cost is too great... or even... it's impossible to pull it back..."
Jiang Manxi was silent for a few seconds, then answered firmly,
"Everyone needs to be responsible for their own actions. If they really make such a big mistake to the point where it cannot be made up, they should be punished accordingly."
Zeng Yichen didn't reply, but just buried his head and looked at the cake in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.
Chi Tao looked at Jiang Manxi with admiration. Although she was young, she was very logical when she spoke, and every word she said touched people's hearts.
He unconsciously stuffed another piece of cake into his mouth and froze again without making a sound.
Shit... She must be sick...
"Yeah." Zeng Yichen seemed to have figured it out. He suddenly raised his head again, and his expression seemed to have changed. He swept away the previous haze and smiled, "Thank you, Miss Jiang."
