Jiang Jinsang leaned back in his chair, a light gray thin blanket over his knees, holding a copy of “Draft History of Qing” in his hands. Some members of the Jiang Family crouched in the sunshine, while two others were watering the flowers with small pink spray bottles.

His phone vibrated, and he glanced at the caller ID.

An unfamiliar number from Beijing.

He usually didn’t answer unfamiliar calls like this, but when it rang a third time, he frowned and picked up, yet before he could speak, the person on the other end began yelling.

“Jiang Xiaowu, what the hell did you and your brother say! When did I ever bother you? You’ve been in Pingjiang for so long, and I only called you once, and then you blocked me. Now you have the nerve to slander me…”

The person on the other end ranted on, realizing there was no response, and then checked their device again.

Dammit—

Hung up again!

When he called back, the response was, “The number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable…”

“Jiang Jinsang, if you have the guts, don’t ever come back to Beijing.”

“You really create more trouble every day with your nonsense.”

His assistant stood by the side, unmoved by his boss’s tirade.

After all, if Xiaowu didn’t provoke him every ten days or so, he would come to him anyway. Therefore, his boss’s frequent tantrums were as regular as a woman’s period.

If it weren’t for the psychological checks each year that he passed without issue, he’d worry that his boss might have some masochistic tendencies.

The voice on the other end was so loud that just by hearing a few words, the Jiang Family knew who it was. Watching Jiang Jinsang hang up and blacklist the number, seeming still uneasy, he simply turned off the phone…

The whole operation was so practiced, and he finally commented, “Really noisy.”
