The Untamed: Wei Wuxian Reborn as a Child
Chapter 61
"Ah Li, I'm sorry for putting you through this." Jiang Fengmian looked at his daughter Jiang Yanli, his face filled with heartache. At Jin Zixuan's birthday party, Jin Zixuan had openly looked down on Jiang Yanli. This was unbearable for Jiang Fengmian, who immediately decided to break off the engagement.
When Yu Ziyuan learned about this, she complained immediately, "Jiang Fengmian, why are you acting so impulsively? This marriage was arranged with great difficulty."
Jiang Fengmian, however, looked determined: "A-Li has suffered such an injustice. If I don't cancel this marriage, I will never be able to calm my anger."
Jiang Cheng, standing by, recounted the events of the birthday banquet in detail. It turned out that Jin Zixuan had not only been disrespectful but also showed no respect for Jiang Yanli. Yu Ziyuan remained silent for a long time before finally agreeing to cancel the engagement.
At the Jin family, Jin Guangshan was furious when he learned that Jiang Fengmian was determined to break off the engagement. "How dare Jiang Fengmian be so disrespectful to my Jin family?" He paced back and forth in the hall, unable to calm his anger for a long time.
Jin Guangshan felt that Jin Zixuan was not calm enough, and he had ruined a good marriage so easily. He sat in a chair, frowning, and suddenly thought of Meng Yao.
Meng Yao, the child with a difficult life. He once wanted to find his roots, but now he no longer wants to recognize me. Jin Guangshan couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he thought of Meng Yao's intelligence and forbearance.
At this moment in the Jiang family, Jiang Yanli was sad, but she also understood her father's painstaking efforts. She quietly returned to her room and shed tears. Jiang Fengmian felt even more guilty when he saw his daughter like this.
Jiang Cheng comforted her from the side, "Sister, that Jin Zixuan doesn't know what's good for him, so we don't care about him. There will definitely be someone better who will cherish you in the future."
Although Yu Ziyuan agreed to cancel the engagement, she still felt unwilling. She looked at Jiang Fengmian and said, "Now that the engagement is canceled, the Jiang family's reputation will also be damaged. What should we do in the future?"
Jiang Fengmian sighed slightly: "Now that things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time."
At the Jin family, Jin Guangshan thought about it and decided to send someone to the Jiang family to discuss it again to see if there was any room for reconciliation. However, Jiang Fengmian was adamant and would not change his decision to cancel the engagement.
Jin Guangshan was helpless and could only vent his anger on Jin Zixuan. "You rebellious son, so ignorant. Now that the Jiang family has broken off the engagement, where does our Jin family stand?"
Jin Zixuan disagreed: "Father, Jiang Yanli is just ordinary, why should I marry her?"
Jin Guangshan was so angry that he pointed at Jin Zixuan and cursed, "You are an ignorant person. The Jiang family is also a well-known family. You will regret it in the future if you treat them so lightly."
Mrs. Jin heard these words and pondered in her heart. She came to Jin Guangshan and whispered, "Jin Guangshan, there may be a chance to turn this around."
Jin Guangshan looked at Mrs. Jin with a hint of doubt in his eyes: "What do you have in mind?"
Mrs. Jin smiled slightly: "The Jiang family broke off the engagement simply because they felt that Master Jin Zixuan had slighted Miss Jiang. We can have Zixuan personally go to the Jiang family to apologize, and perhaps there is still a chance of redemption."
After hearing this, Jin Guangshan nodded slightly: "This plan is feasible. But is Zixuan willing to go?"
Mrs. Jin said, "Don't worry, I will persuade Zixuan."
Mrs. Jin found Jin Zixuan and persuaded him, "Zixuan, now that the Jiang family has broken off the engagement, it's damaging to the Jin family's reputation. Your father is also very angry. Why don't you go to the Jiang family in person to apologize? Perhaps you can still save this marriage."
Jin Zixuan said stubbornly, "Why should I apologize? Jiang Yanli is not worthy of me."
Mrs. Jin said patiently, "Zixuan, Miss Jiang is gentle and kind, and the Jiang family also has a certain status among the hundreds of immortal families. If we can marry into the Jiang family, it will be of great benefit to the Jin family. Besides, your behavior at the birthday banquet was indeed inappropriate."
After hearing what Mrs. Jin said, Jin Zixuan felt a little bit unhappy, but he also felt that it made some sense. He hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed to go to the Jiang family to apologize.
Mrs. Jin was delighted to see that Jin Zixuan had agreed. She hurried back to report to Jin Guangshan. After hearing this, Jin Guangshan also smiled with relief.
However, the Jiang family was not buying it. When Jiang Fengmian learned that Jin Zixuan was coming to apologize, he sneered, "Does he think an apology is enough? My daughter of the Jiang family will not be bullied."
Yu Ziyuan also said: "That's right, we must not forgive them easily."
Jiang Cheng was even more angry: "Jin Zixuan was so disrespectful to my sister back then. It's too late to apologize now." Jiang Yanli remained silent. Although she was hurt, she didn't want to make things difficult for her father.
When Jin Zixuan arrived at the Jiang residence, Jiang Fengmian and the others looked at him coldly. Jin Zixuan stood there awkwardly, unsure how to begin. Finally, he mustered up the courage to speak: "Master Jiang, Madam Yu, my behavior at the birthday banquet was indeed inappropriate. I apologize to Miss Jiang. I hope you can forgive me and reconsider this marriage."
Jiang Fengmian snorted: "Do you think an apology will help? The daughter of my Jiang family is not someone you can bully or win back whenever you want." Jin Zixuan's face flushed red, not knowing what to do.
Yu Ziyuan also said: "You looked down on A Li so much back then, and now you come to apologize. What do you think of our Jiang family?" Jin Zixuan lowered his head, speechless.
Jiang Cheng glared at Jin Zixuan and said, "Leave quickly. We in the Jiang family don't welcome you." Jin Zixuan had no choice but to leave the Jiang family in disgrace.
Mrs. Jin was disappointed to learn that Jin Zixuan's apology had failed. But she didn't give up. She came up with another idea. She went to Jin Guangshan again and said, "Since the Jiang family refuses to forgive Zixuan, we can try other approaches. For example, we can send them some precious gifts to express our sincerity."
Jin Guangshan thought it made sense, so he ordered people to prepare many precious gifts and sent them to the Jiang family again.
After the Jiang family received the gifts, Jiang Fengmian remained unmoved. "Do they think that giving gifts can make up for the grievances that A-Li has suffered?"
Yu Ziyuan also said: "That's right, we can't accept these gifts." Jiang Cheng directly asked someone to return the gifts.
Jin Guangshan was even more anxious when he saw that the gift had been returned. He began to reflect on whether there was something wrong with his education of Jin Zixuan. He decided to go to the Jiang family in person and apologize to Jiang Fengmian.
When Jin Guangshan arrived at the Jiang residence, Jiang Fengmian and Yu Ziyuan were both somewhat surprised. Jin Guangshan said apologetically, "Master Jiang, Madam Yu, I'm sorry for my poor parenting and for causing Miss Jiang such injustice. I apologize to you. I hope you'll reconsider this marriage for the sake of our friendship."
Jiang Fengmian was silent for a moment, then said, "Master Jin, it's not that I don't give you face, but your son's behavior is truly intolerable to me."
Yu Ziyuan also said: "That's right, the daughter of our Jiang family cannot suffer such grievances."
Jin Guangshan sighed, "I know it's my family's fault this time. I'll definitely teach Zixuan a lesson when I get back, and make him realize his mistake. I also ask Sect Master Jiang and Madam Yu to give us another chance."
Jiang Fengmian and Yu Ziyuan exchanged a glance, feeling a little hesitant. After all, the Jin family held considerable status in the martial arts world, and a marriage with them would be beneficial to the Jiang family. However, they were also concerned that Jin Zixuan would bully Jiang Yanli again.
Just as they were hesitating, Jiang Yanli came out. She looked at Jin Guangshan and said, "Master Jin, I see your sincerity. But the matter between me and Young Master Jin still depends on fate."
After hearing this, Jin Guangshan was delighted: "Miss Jiang, do you mean there is still hope?"
Jiang Yanli: "Let's call off the engagement for now. If we're truly destined to be together, we can talk about it later. But I hope Young Master Jin can truly recognize his mistakes and stop looking down on others in the future."
Jin Guangshan quickly said, "Don't worry, Miss Jiang. I will make him reflect on his mistakes when I get back." After that, he left the Jiang family.
After Jin Guangshan returned, he severely lectured Jin Zixuan. Jin Zixuan began to reflect on his behavior and realized that he had indeed gone too far. He decided to change himself and win back Jiang Yanli's heart.
