Jiang Lao was puzzled, "Why is the second son so easy to deal with? You just apologize and everything's fine?"

Jiangsu was also curious, "Didn't my uncle give you any other punishment?"

Gu Nuannuan replied, "He apologized to me, why would he give me punishment?"

"What? He apologized to you!" Jiang Lao exclaimed excitedly.

What's going on here?

Weren't they the ones at fault first? Why would the second son apologize to them?

Gu Nuannuan nodded, "Yeah, he accused me of sneaking ice cream at school, so I asked him to apologize. He did, but I haven't forgiven him, so I came out."

Grandfather and grandson: "..."

Jiangsu understood Gu Nuannuan's personality quite well. Her brain might not be able to handle so much information.

So, he reminded her, "Did you forget that you went to apologize? We got caught sneaking spicy strips, and then you were dragged to the office by my uncle."

This time, Gu Nuannuan was shocked.

Yeah, she was the one who went to apologize!

So, what was she just doing...?

Gu Nuannuan remembered and looked at Jiangsu, tears welling up, "What should I do? I just disrespected your uncle."

Jiangsu patted Gu Nuannuan's shoulder, speaking with sincerity, "For the sake of our twelve years of brotherhood, I won't stand by and watch you suffer. I'll make sure to buy you the best coffin, to give you a decent burial."

Gu Nuannuan looked at Jiang Lao, "Dad, help me. I, I just... My mind went blank, I don't know how I suddenly got angry and argued with my husband. What should I do?"

Jiang Lao suggested tentatively, avoiding eye contact, "Why don't you, voluntarily apologize? Maybe you'll be let off lightly."

"I-I'm too scared to do that," Gu Nuannuan hesitated.

She was afraid that she would be scolded by her husband, who had a decisive and ruthless temper towards his subordinates. But Jiangsu nudged her shoulder, urging her, "Go on, go on. I'll definitely buy you a coffin made of the finest nanmu wood. Waterproof, moisture-proof, and insect-proof, ensuring your body stays preserved for thousands of years."

"Jiangsu, you jerk, stop pushing me!"

But Jiangsu had already pushed her to the door of Jiang Chenyu's study.

Then, he and Jiang Lao immediately stepped back, distancing themselves from the scene of the crime.

Gu Nuannuan felt like crying without tears.

Jiang Lao and Jiangsu both waved at Gu Nuannuan simultaneously, indicating to her: Go ahead.

Gu Nuannuan had no choice but to grit her teeth, mentally preparing herself. She raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Knock, knock" twice.

No one responded.

Gu Nuannuan opened the door a crack and saw the expressionless man inside. Her heart trembled at the sight of him even before she approached. She became hesitant.

Summoning her courage, she pushed the door open and walked in, gently closing it behind her.

Taking small steps, she slowly approached Jiang Chenyu.

Lowering her head and twisting her fingers, she apologized, "Honey, I'm sorry. I didn't put myself in the right place just now, I was wrong again."

Jiang Chenyu was in a good mood. He stared at his wife's temple and said, "You seemed pretty angry just now, continue."
