Chapter 1379: Absolutely No Tolerance

Chapter 1379: Chapter 1379: Absolutely No Tolerance

The car interior sank into a brief silence. Jiang Jingheng looked at her, the roadside lights flickered over her eyes, as clear as if one could see to the bottom.

In a warm voice, he said, "Alright, I’ll make the arrangements."

"Hmm." Mu Yan nodded, looking ahead at the road.

Jiang Jingheng also withdrew his gaze, focused on driving, and the two stayed silent on the way back to the villa.

After freshening up, Mu Yan went back to bed to rest.

When Jiang Jingheng came out of the bathroom after showering, he found she had already fallen asleep.

Standing by the bed, Jiang Jingheng looked at her sleeping face, his brows heavy, her words from tonight flashed through his mind, a shadow fleeting in his eyes.

He turned and left the room, gently closing the door behind him.

On the bed, Mu Yan’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

She stared in the direction of the door for quite a while, before slowly closing them again.

The next day, the news of Jiang Yutai’s drug use spread across the internet.

Mainly because the media witnessed the arrest yesterday.

"Rich second-generation caught for drug use, top-tier family’s face disgraced"

"Second uncle uses drugs, Mu Yan couple visit police station late at night to bail him out"

"Family scandal, rich second-generation’s drug use suspected of being framed"

...

The matter made a big splash, first reported by the Upper City Daily, and other media seeing the official stance giving the Jiang Family no face, naturally followed suit, not wanting to miss out on this topic.

Originally, it was just Jiang Yutai caught for drug use, but with other interests guiding it, he was directly portrayed as a victim.

"They say wealthy families run deep, this might be the beginning of a family feud, but this Second Young Master Jiang is really something, getting caught with such a big flaw."

"Seems Mu Yan marrying into a wealthy family isn’t without trouble, originally felt she was like Cinderella, luckily meeting her prince, now it looks like Jiang Jingheng is the lucky one, finding a wife from such a prestigious background, I wonder how much true feelings are in there."

"Feels like the one upstairs has a wild imagination, a pity not writing scripts, clearly a drug addict, you make it sound so innocent, regardless of any conspiracies, was someone forcing him into drug use? Impossible! As far as I know, he never obeys Jiang Jingheng, and is always arrogant and self-willed, speaking of ability, Jiang Jingheng leaves him ten streets behind, just by looking at their positions in the group you can tell – is that kind of person even worth Jiang Jingheng scheming?"

"Upstairs might just be Jiang Jingheng’s fan, how much did he pay you to clear his name? As far as I know, Jiang Jingheng also has an older brother, now with crippled legs lying at home, how his legs got broken is already an open secret amongst the upper class."

"Saying that like you know a lot about the upper class, as a spectator, since the truth hasn’t come out yet, I choose to remain silent."

...

The majority online were cursing Jiang Yutai, saying he deserved it, but many believed it was Jiang Jingheng’s doing.

The Jiang Family seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds. Early in the morning, Jiang Jingheng was called back by Old Sir Jiang, asking him to control the situation’s development.

In the study, Old Sir Jiang looked at Jiang Jingheng and asked, "Is this related to you?"

Jiang Jingheng looked at him, expression cold, not answering but asking instead, "What do you think, Grandpa?"

Old Sir Jiang scrutinized his outstanding grandson, sometimes feeling his sharpness too exposed, like a sword drawn that couldn’t be controlled.

He’s old, what he wants is nothing more than family peace and harmony among descendants.

He stared at him for a long while and said, "It’s best if it isn’t you, but if it is, I won’t be lenient."
