Chapter 94: 094 Comes to beg for mercy, refuses to give face and stubbornly resists Chapter 94: 094 Comes to beg for mercy, refuses to give face and stubbornly resists Though Pingjiang lay in the southern region, once the piercing wind blew, the sparse leaves turned yellow and winter had quietly descended.

After lunch, Jiang Jinsang took Jiangjiang back to the East Courtyard for an afternoon nap, while the old master leaned back in a rattan chair under the veranda to soak up the sun, with Tang Yunxian sitting beside him, briefly updating him about Zhang Liyun and Tang Mo’s situation.

The police investigation was underway and would soon enter the judicial process, which involved court hearings and required some time.

“Just handle it as you see fit,” the old master squinted his eyes and hummed a segment of Pingtan opera, looking content and leisurely.

From the corner of his eye, Tang Yunxian saw Tang Wan standing on the other side of the veranda feeding Hua Mei, and couldn’t help but move closer to his father, whispering, “Why did you arrange for Jiang Jinsang to stay in the East Courtyard?”

There were many vacant rooms in the old house, and it was only this time when he returned home that he found out he was living in the same courtyard as his own daughter.

“Why didn’t you notify me?”

“This is my house, do I need your consent to arrange who lives where?” Old Tang glanced at him and snorted coldly.

“That’s not what I meant!”

“Xiaowu is here for medical treatment, and Wanwan’s courtyard is the quietest. What’s the issue?” The old master squinted his eyes.

“The West Courtyard isn’t bad either. It’s not quite proper, all things considered… Are you hoping to play matchmaker?”

His father, being protective, saw everyone as a potential “flower thief,” and unfortunately, he even seemed to encourage it.

“Then go and tell him to move out now,” Old Tang huffed coldly.

“You’re making this difficult…” Tang Yunxian felt helpless, as people had already settled in for quite a while—how could he just ask them to leave?

“So, you do know it’s difficult,” Old Tang scoffed lightly. “When I was in trouble, you were overseas. It was Xiaowu who took care of everything, even inviting a specialist from Beijing for me. Now that you don’t need him anymore, you want to kick him out just like that?”

“Dad, that’s not what I mean! I just think that at their age, being unmarried and living so close isn’t ideal…”

The old master narrowed his eyes at him, “What’s not ideal about that? It’s only because you think the worst, assuming the same of the children.”

“No, I…”

“If there really is something, it’d be mutual consent. Are you planning to break them up by force?”
