C130 – Ignorance Is Not Wrong
Jiang Hao’s inquiry drew all eyes to him!
Yet, he stood unfazed, the very picture of serenity.
He Yuxin, though puzzled by Jiang Hao’s question, responded nonetheless.
“Ah, I’ve just been inexplicably suffering from insomnia lately, but otherwise, I’m fine.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hao offered a slight smile.
“If Auntie is only experiencing insomnia, it’s nothing too serious!”
At that moment, Feng Jianguo let out a scoff, his eyes brimming with contempt.
“Really? Does Mr. Jiang have some clever remedy for my aunt’s sleeplessness?”
A mere kid, not even fully grown, trying to play the expert in front of him!
Soong Wanzhong, too, furrowed his brow, eyeing Jiang Hao with skepticism.
Soong Wan, sensing trouble, subtly tugged at Jiang Hao’s sleeve, a silent plea for caution.
Undeterred by Feng Jianguo’s mockery, Jiang Hao reached into his pocket and produced a gourd-shaped porcelain vial.
With everyone watching in surprise, he slid it across to He Huiling.
“Uncle, surely you don’t believe in this, do you?”
But Soong Wanzhong paid him no mind.
Just then, He Yuexin, overhearing Feng Jianguo’s ignorant and embarrassing remarks, quickly reprimanded him.
“Jianguo, enough!”
He Yuexin’s rebuke left Mother Feng feeling displeased.
“Sister, Jianguo is not wrong! What, do you believe that nonsense too?
You’ve all been duped by that charlatan!”
She said, pointing at Jiang Hao, who remained unfazed, her eyes brimming with loathing.
She went on.
“You should really send that little con artist packing, keep him away from Wan’er. She should be spending more time with our Jianguo...”
Soong Wan glared at her distant aunt with disdain.
Jiang Hao now understood why the Feng family mother and son harbored such animosity towards him.
He Yuexin, standing to the side, furrowed her brows in annoyance.
Her distant cousin truly lacked any sense of judgment, just like her son!
Meanwhile, Feng Jianguo, oblivious to the undercurrents, basked in his mother’s compliments. Despite his outward show of humility, the smugness in his eyes was unmistakable.
