Jiang Muwan, upon hearing this, fell silent, staring at the still-lit phone screen, watching the minutes tick by, and waiting for the patriarch to continue on from what he had just said.
Because the call was on speaker, Fu Jing, sitting beside her, was also attentively waiting for the next words to come.
And what about the old patriarch?
He was considering, pondering.
Of course, he was also waiting for Jiang Muwan to speak.
In this way, if Yang Shan were to ask, he could shift the blame onto someone else.
But Jiang Muwan, oh!
Too clever.
With her silence, she pushed him to move forward.
Unlike Jiang Muwan, the patriarch didn't have time to play this long game; after all, he had the Ji Family's old patriarch watching him closely.
Thus, in this silent standoff,
He was doomed to lose.
