Chapter 334: Chapter 334: Jiang Huaihe’s Apology

Fang Bai might show face to Su Yifei, but Jiang Fenglian and her son Wang Dong, who had just been slapped, obviously weren’t willing to let it go, and they were particularly vexed when Su Yifei came in and spoke to Fang Bai, yet neglected them.

"Su Yifei, if someone were to slap you several times, could you bear it, become friends? Hah... is he worthy enough to climb up to your level?"

Jiang Fenglian rolled her eyes and spoke with dissatisfaction, noticing that Su Yifei and Fang Bai seemed to get along quite well, showing not the slightest bit of regard for Su Yifei.

"Su Shao, we should handle this matter ourselves, don’t intervene! Hmph, here in Yanjing, our Wang Family has never feared anyone!"

Although Wang Dong knew that Fang Bai was strong and had some background, in the territory of Yanjing, the Wang Family had never been afraid of anyone. If the full force of the Wang Family were to come into play, even the few top-tier illustrious families of Huaxia would have to tread cautiously.

Su Yifei’s face turned sour, losing face, he was straightforward by nature and disliked beating around the bush, and scoffed, "Your Wang Family is indeed powerful, but to say that Fang Bai isn’t worthy of you... that’s a bit too arrogant!"

He paused, then continued, "Let me be frank, Fang Bai saved my sister’s life. If anyone dares to trouble him, the Su Family will not sit idly by!"

Sun Lin’s eyes lit up at Su Yifei’s words.

Initially, Sun Lin had thought that although Fang Bai was powerful, he was ultimately alone and without strong backing, making it difficult to contend with a prominent clan like the Wang Family. To her surprise, his ties with the Su Family ran deep.

Su Yifei, highly regarded by Su Hongyuan and Old Master Su, was the future successor of the Su Family. His words to some extent represented the Su Family; if the Su Family fully protected Fang Bai, then the Wang Family would have to think carefully before taking any action against him.

"The alliance through marriage between the Ye and Wang Families seems unlikely at present. If my daughter is determined to be with Fang Bai, then I’ll let her be! My daughter and Fang Bai are lovers, and given the close relationship between Fang Bai and the Su Family, in the future, the Ye Family can also use this connection to draw closer to the Su Family."

Thinking this, Sun Lin found Fang Bai much more pleasing to the eye than before.

In the realm of Yanjing, although the Su and Ye Families didn’t have as profound a heritage as the Wang Family, if both families united to protect Fang Bai, together with his personal capabilities, the Wang Family would definitely not dare to act rashly.

However, this would mean that the Su and Ye Families would make an enemy of the Wang Family.

Sun Lin’s mind raced, weighing the pros and cons of intervening in the matter, hesitating and finding it hard to decide.

Just then, a figure flashed at the door, and a man and a woman appeared at the entrance of the "Rose Hall."

Both in their forties, the man exuded a composed and imposing aura, while the woman was nobly graceful, still retaining her charm.

"Minister Jiang, Director Zhao, you..."

Jiang Fenglian was slightly startled to see the two middle-aged individuals before her, forcing a smile onto her face.

However, with her cheeks swollen from Fang Bai’s slaps, her smile looked worse than if she were crying.

The middle-aged couple was none other than Jiang Huaihe and his wife Zhao Xinran.

They had come in person to ask Fang Bai and Ye Wumei for help with their daughter Jiang Xiaoyu’s illness, though they felt somewhat apprehensive about what Fang Bai’s attitude might be.

"Fenglian, your... what happened to your face?"

Zhao Xinran was shocked when she saw the palm print on Jiang Fenglian’s face.

The Jiang and Wang Families, in Yanjing, both belonged to the top echelon of prominent clans, and the depth of their family heritage was quite similar, with members of both families being acquainted with each other.

"Don’t even mention it, I was slapped! I was just about to call our Old Wang to have him send some people over to avenge me! Hmph, in all my years, I, Jiang Fenglian, have never seen such an arrogant and presumptuous young person!"

Jiang Fenglian, seeing the couple from the Jiang Family approaching, thought that, given the good relationship between the two families, the couple would surely stand by her side and speak for her.

The Jiang couple were clever people and, seeing Jiang Fenglian’s eyes wide with fury as she spoke and glared at Fang Bai, how could they not understand that it was Fang Bai who had slapped Jiang Fenglian? Their hearts skipped a beat, and they exchanged a bitter smile with each other.

"Fenglian, Doctor Fang is an esteemed guest of our Jiang Family. Could you please do me a favor and let this matter go? If you want compensation, just name your price, and I will pay on behalf of Doctor Fang!"

Zhao Xinran’s mind was completely occupied by her daughter Jiang Xiaoyu’s illness, and the moment she heard that Jiang Fenglian was intending to target Fang Bai, she became anxious.

For Zhao Xinran, as long as her daughter was safe and sound, she wouldn’t hesitate even if it meant compensating tens or even hundreds of millions.

Money can be earned back, but if they lost their daughter, it would be like stabbing a knife deep into the hearts of both Jiang Huaihe and Zhao Xinran; a pain that would last a lifetime.

The couple had approached Doctor Fang with great hopes. If Doctor Fang were to be attacked by people from the Wang Family and something went wrong, who would treat their daughter’s illness?

Therefore, no matter what, the Jiang couple had to protect Doctor Fang, at least until he agreed to treat their daughter’s condition and cured her. They could not afford any harm to come to him.

"Zhao Xinran, what are you talking about? Is our Wang Family short of money? He slapped me a few times, and you think you can settle it with money? No way! I won’t let this go! Dong’er, call your dad and tell him to send people here immediately!"

Jiang Fenglian never expected Zhao Xinran to say that and was initially stunned before she started screeching at the top of her lungs.

Jiang Huaihe and Zhao Xinran both knew Jiang Fenglian was a typical shrew, prone to crying and screaming, and couldn’t be bothered with her, so the couple walked straight up to Fang Bai and bowed to him respectfully.

As Jiang Huaihe bowed, he said, "Doctor Fang, my wife and I have been remiss in the past, and for that, we are truly sorry! We hope this apology is not too late!"

Jiang Fenglian, Wang Dong, Sun Lin, and Su Yifei in the Rose Hall were so taken aback by the scene that their jaws almost dropped.

Jiang Huaihe was the current Family Head of the Jiang Family, a Minister in his own right—even though the word "Deputy" still preceded his title, it was only a matter of time before he would be promoted.

Now, such a prominent political figure in Huaxia was bringing his wife to personally apologize to a young man, completely upending Jiang Fenglian and the others’ perceptions.

Jiang Fenglian especially, seeing the respectful demeanor of the Jiang couple towards Fang Bai, felt the muscles at the corners of her mouth twitch uncontrollably, realizing that she might have bitten off more than she could chew this time, not a soft persimmon but a piece of iron.

"Both of you are important figures, and I really can’t accept such a gesture!"

Although Fang Bai said this, he made no attempt to dodge, but accepted the bow from the Jiang couple as if it was the proper thing to do.

Seeing no displeasure on Fang Bai’s face and noticing that he accepted their sincere apology without dodging, the Jiang couple felt a surge of joy, knowing that the chance of him agreeing to treat their daughter had just increased.
