Chapter 174: 138 Fifth Master Protects His Own, Mysterious Woman Stabs Again (3 more updates)_3 "What do you think?" At this moment, Zhuang Rao finally understood what it meant to be grilled over the fire. She walked up to Tang Wan, biting the bullet, she apologized, "I'm sorry!" "Who are you apologizing to?" Jiang Jinsang raised an eyebrow.

"Miss Tang, I'm sorry!" "An apology should have a reason, right..." Zhuang Rao's hands were tightly clenched, her body not only trembling with fear and dread but also with indignant shame. She had no choice but to choke up and apologize over and over.

"She was born with a venomous heart, wishing harm upon others. Yet, living in our house, it's not the place of outsiders to meddle, even if it's one's own family..." With a scoff in his voice, Jiang Jinsang said, “One must consider the closeness of relationships. Distant relatives aren't even as good as close neighbors, so don't overextend your reach." Jiang Shuyan bit her teeth, not daring to say more.

She could only bitterly regret underestimating Tang Wan, but she never expected that Jiang Jinsang would personally step in to help her.

"The auction is about to start, if we keep this up, I'm afraid we'll delay the time," Tang Wan spoke up to Jiang Jinsang, offering everyone a way out.

"Yes, the auction is starting soon. Let's all get ready," the event staff immediately called everyone to attention. "We're just going to let them off like that?" Jiang Jinsang murmured to Tang Wan as they sat down.

"I've actually gained the upper hand already. You really don't need to... lest everyone says you're too domineering and aggressive." "What others think has never concerned me. I just wanted to stand up for you, to make you feel better." Tang Wan looked down, feeling a mixture of emotions rise in her heart. Aside from her family, it was rare for someone to treat her like this.

"Oh, right, about the second..." Tang Wan was about to ask why Jiang Yanting hadn't cwhen she suddenly heard a muffled thud from the auction hall's emergency exit, followed by a scream from Zhuang Rao.

As everyone looked that way, because of the dim light in that area, they only saw a woman in a Rain Weir long dress, with hair over her shoulders, who quietly said, "I'm sorry, I've been here the whole time. I didn't expect you to cby so unguarded and accidentally tripped you." Tang Wan squinted her eyes again and saw Zhuang Rao sitting on the ground, on the tiled floor. That fall must have been harsh.

Zhuang Rao felt stifled, having been humiliated several times that night. She was already struggling with shand anger and was just about to leave when she was tripped yet again. If she hadn't braced herself against a wall, she probably would have landed face-first and wouldn't have been able to face anyone again.

Just as she thought about lashing out, the person spoke again.

"Why are you using this exit when you could use the main one?" Normally, aside from staff, or in situations like fires or other dangers, this emergency exit was rarely open, which is why her question was based on reason.

Zhuang Rao had lost all dignity, her face still swollen. How could she have the face to walk through the crowd and leave through the main door? That's why she wanted to take the emergency exit to go around, but unexpectedly ran into another calamity head-on.

"Since this path is inconvenient, you're better off following the rules and leaving through the main entrance." Saying this, she closed the door, blocking the way.

In Zhuang Rao's predicament, if she tried to push back, the only one at a loss would be herself. Biting her teeth, she could only hang her head and leave through the main entrance, her departure causing quite a few people in the hall to burst into laughter.

She really deserved it! Tang Wan could only inwardly sigh. She was unlucky enough to encounter another formidable character. Meanwhile, Jiang Jinsang stared at that person for a long while, black dress, long hair... but the light was too dim, he couldn't see her face at all, only hearing a voice that seemed youthful.

She seemed to suddenly turn around, looking in their direction.

In fact, her actions amounted to taking another shot for Tang Wan. She immediately smiled and nodded to her. The woman also nodded subtly in return and turned to leave, almost hugging the wall, quietly exiting the scene.

Many in the hall felt that Zhuang Rao was bullying Tang Wan too much and were inwardly indignant, but no one wanted to cause trouble, all acting as onlookers-a wall of spectators. And the only one who really couldn't stand it and took revenge on her behalf was that person just now.

"Brother Five, do you know the person just now?" "I couldn't see clearly," Jiang Jinsang gave Jiang Jiu a meaningful look.

Yet in less than a minute, he was back, saying he hadn't seen anyone.

"How could the person just disappear when you've just chased after them?" Tang Wan furrowed her brow.

"I'm not sure, the hotel corridors are inherently complex, and there are many rooms, so it's really not easy to find someone." At this moment in the surveillance room, although Jiang Yanting was looking for someone, he was also closely monitoring the movements in the auction hall.

Jiang Jinsang was acting capriciously, and Zhuang Rao had hit his sore spot. A display of temper was enough, but there was concern he might do something excessively outrageous.

"Ha-did this woman not consult the almanac before leaving home? She got bumped into again." "I suspect this lady did it on purpose; otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that she tripped over her?" "I also think it was deliberate." The other people in the surveillance room were all focused on the auction hall, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle like watching a melo.

Jiang Yanting squinted and suddenly pointed at a spot on one of the monitors in the auction hall, "Rewind that a bit!" The camera panned back, and he squinted at a shadow, “Zoom in!" The camera was high definition, but the lighting was too dim, and only a vague outline could be seen.

"Second Master, the auction is about to start; what about this..." The manager had already hinted several times.

But this time, Jiang Yanting didn't stay put and turned to leave swiftly...

However, by the the arrived, the person had long since vanished.

"Daddy." Qi Zeyan cover with Jiangjiang.

"Damn, why is it that every tsomething like this happens, I'm not around and miss a big scene?" on Zeyan felt that he and Tang Wan were truly meant to meet but not fated to be together, otherwise why did he miss every opportunity to be the hero? "Brother..." Jiang Jinsang's position was right next to Jiang Yanting, and at this moment, all the lights were focused on the stage, making the area below even darker.

"Hmm?" "Was that the person from before?" Jiang Yanting didn't say a word, but Jiang Jinsang laughed softly, "Hating evil as if it were his personal enemy, if that's her character, I wouldn't mind calling her sister-in-law." "Don't talk nonsense when we get back home." "Why can't I talk?" "Jiang Jinsang?"

"It's you askingnow, so you should show srespect if you want help finding someone Beijing isn't big, and anyone coming here today has ways to be traced. Finding someone might take time, but it's not difficult. "I'll do it myself!" With his own matters, Jiang Yanting didn't want others to interfere.

Jiang Jinsang disliked taking medicine as a child and had been forced to by him a few times, O M homes, om something that ha had always left a bad taste. Now that he had a hold on him, seeing him at a disadvantage felt strangely satisfying. His poor health was a weakness, while his elder brother rarely showed any vulnerabilities, making it difficult to exploit him...

Once a person has a weakness, they're no longer made of steel and iron.

Though it might give others leverage, living in this world, who doesn't have a few people they hold in their heart, or for whom they'd be willing to risk everything? That's what makes life full of endless flavors...
