2243 It“s fine even if you pierce the heavens
When Jiang Lihen noticed Si Yehan's glance, he awkwardly harrumphed and said, “Don't thank me too much. I didn't like these lousy rules to begin with!”
Jiang Lihen was the type who enjoyed seeing the world embroiled in chaos, so Nameless Nie's personality surprisingly matched his taste.
Ye Wanwan turned to Jiang Lihen and the others with surprise before looking back at Si Yehan, wis.h.i.+ng to speak but she hesitated. “Ah-Jiu…”
Si Yehan patted her on the head and gave her a comforting glance. “It's fine.”
He was saying “It's fine” despite it being such a giant matter?
Jiang Lihen dourly glanced at the duo from the corner of his eyes and snorted. “Even if this girl wanted to pierce the heavens, you'd probably be underneath her, handing her a spear!”
“Who dares to touch my children?!”
After a brief silence, Patriarch Nie and Madam Nie abruptly spoke at the same time and marched toward Nameless Nie.
When Nameless Nie heard his parents' voices, his pupils contracted.
“Nameless…” Patriarch Nie looked at Nameless Nie and sighed. “Back then, I did oppose your relations.h.i.+p with Ling family. It's not your fault… Dad was selfish and only thought about the Nie family… Dad let you down!”
Nameless Nie appeared a bit moved.
Back then, for the sake of the Nie family's reputation, Patriarch Nie absolutely refused to let him be with the leader of the Rose of Death, Ling Miao. This ended up creating Nameless Nie's lifelong regret.
“Son… It's Mom's fault…” Madam Nie looked at Nameless Nie with guilt written all over her face.
Although Second Grandma was a distant relative of Patriarch Ling, that was several generations ago. They didn't have much blood relations anymore. Plus, Ling Miao was younger than Nameless Nie.
However, simply because Nameless Nie technically called Ling Miao “Aunt,” Madam Nie adamantly rejected any development between the two of them and wouldn't even allow Ling Miao to take a step inside the Nie residence…
Thinking back on it now, they were wrong…
If they were more reasonable, perhaps Nameless Nie wouldn't have spent the rest of his life in regret and hatred!
Nameless Nie turned to Madam Nie and Patriarch, his lips slightly opening as though he wanted to say something but he ended up unable to utter anything.
“I'd like to see who has the guts to touch my grandson and granddaughter!”
At this moment, the silent Patriarch Ling suddenly stood forward.
“Dad…”
Patriarch Nie reflexively called.
“Who's your dad? Patriarch Nie's surname is Nie, but my surname is Ling. It'd be best if you didn't randomly claim relations. I'm just doing this for my grandchildren,” Patriarch Ling said coldly with a glance at Patriarch Nie.
“We support the Nie family.”
At that moment, everyone from the Ji family also stepped forward.
“D*mn! I represent the Shen family and support Worriless Nie, support my G.o.ddess! G.o.ddess, I love you!”
Eldest Young Master Shen acted like a loose dog and made to race toward Ye Wanwan.
However, he was frightened into retreating several steps by a bone-chilling gaze.
“Don't you act so insolently here!”
Patriarch Shen fiercely glared at Shen Tianchen before turning to everyone with a smile. “Heh… the four great clans were comrades to begin with… and the Nie family is also the head of the four great clans, so our Shen family definitely won't set ourselves against the other three clans… Similarly, to everyone from the Collateral Branch, the Shen family is just composed of businessmen. If you need anything, let us know. We'll definitely help to the best of our abilities… but if you want us to provide people, we don't have many.”
However, no one paid any attention to him.
Everyone was fixated on Nameless Nie and Ye Wanwan.
At this moment, in a spot far away, Si Xia was watching every movement with a pair of binoculars, a devilish smile on his face. “So interesting… But the fun part is at the end… See you soon.”
