Even Jiang Jiewen's mother furrowed her brows, clearly disapproving of Jiang Chen, the "heartless man."
"I think we can ask Jiang Chen for help. He's really capable and can definitely handle those two Martial Artists," Jiang Jiewen declared, as if making a significant decision, taking a deep breath and speaking decisively.
As her words fell, Jiang Jiewen quickly observed her parents' expressions. They were naturally shocked, filled with deep skepticism, and even a hint of helplessness directed at her.
"Jiang Jiewen, you are usually a rational person. Why do you lose your common sense when it comes to Jiang Chen? I honestly see no strength or background in him. To be frank, I used a bit of my privilege to investigate Jiang Chen's family background. His mother's side is somewhat respectable in Qingcheng, but she passed away when he was born, and later his father also died. I've heard that his grandfather's family has issues with his dad, so they don't treat Jiang Chen well either."
"Jiang Jiewen, your father has some things he doesn't want to spell out clearly. I hope you find someone truly outstanding in every aspect—at least in education, appearance, demeanor, and temperament—someone closer to your level. To be honest, I see no merits in that kid Jiang Chen," Jiang Shi said earnestly, his tone carrying the weight of a father's expectations.
"Dad, how can you casually investigate Jiang Chen's family background?" Jiang Jiewen protested.
"Isn't it for your sake?"
"Dad, do you think your daughter is that superficial? I don't know or care about Jiang Chen's family background. What matters to me is who he is as a person. I liked him back in middle school when he was doing well academically and was quite impressive. He just became less known after going to Nangang High School. In fact, he has great potential; I've come to realize more and more how exceptional he is. He's really impressive, and he's also a Martial Artist."
"What did you just say?" Jiang Shi exclaimed, his eyes wide with disbelief.
"I said he is also a Martial Artist and quite skilled. The underground forces in Qingcheng—Brother Bao and Lu Zhengjian—are currently very wary of Jiang Chen because of his abilities; even the leaders of the underground forces know about him." That night, Jiang Jiewen decided to lay everything on the line; it was time for her parents to understand more about Jiang Chen so they wouldn't nag her every day.
But she also knew that her "empty words" would likely not convince her parents. However, that didn't matter; perhaps by tomorrow night, she could make her father believe.
"Jiang Jiewen, being a Martial Artist isn't just about knowing some martial arts or fighting techniques," Jiang Shi replied.
"Dad, I know! A friend sent me a video of Jiang Chen; he's really impressive—definitely stronger than those two Martial Artists you mentioned earlier," Jiang Jiewen insisted confidently.
"You really have unconditional trust in him. But even if he is a Martial Artist, this matter has already been taken care of by Li Ting; we don't need an outsider involved. It's getting late; let's go to bed," Jiang Shi said dismissively. His tone and attitude revealed his continued skepticism toward Jiang Chen.
As for what his daughter said—a person blinded by love rarely speaks with credibility—Jiang Shi even thought about taking her to see a psychologist.
Jiang Jiewen understood her father's thoughts but didn't feel anxious to explain further. After exchanging goodnights, she returned to her room and closed the door securely. She sent a message to Jiang Chen to explain the situation.
