Chapter 1935 - 109: Sincere Apologies
The Second Elder sat silently on one side, only casting a faint glance at Yan Xiyu before his gaze passed over him and landed on a young girl dressed in purple.
The girl smiled sweetly, and when she caught the gaze of the Second Elder, she even showed a friendly smile with her little white teeth.
Second Elder: "..."
Suddenly, he was reminded of the farce from that day.
"Why are you here?"
The Second Elder asked directly.
Dong Huiying blinked innocently, at this moment, Yan Xiyu stepped forward and lowered his eyes: "Second Elder, Xi Yu was very offensive last time, please forgive him. Today, he has come specifically to apologize."
Afterwards, Yan Xiyu clapped his hands, and the servants brought over from the Yan family moved several wooden boxes inside. Upon opening them, they revealed gold, silver, and jewelry, dazzling everyone’s eyes.
Dong Huiying clicked her tongue in surprise, no wonder she had seen an extra carriage following behind Yan Xiyu’s when she arrived, it was full of genuine silver.
Then, she glanced at the Second Elder and the Yan Family Master with a playful smile, thinking that today’s show was quite a spectacle.
Compared to the last time, Yan Xiyu seemed to have made considerable progress, as if he had curbed some of his previous sharpness.
Yet about him, it was uncertain whether he was too determined, excessively competitive, or maybe vain, seeking to highlight himself, to capture the limelight?
In any case, even though he had subdued himself a bit compared to before, his words and actions still had an air of overshadowing the hosts, eager to be the focal point and the lead wherever he went.
"Second Elder, you are too kind."
At this time, the Yan Family Master smiled apologetically at the Second Elder, on behalf of Yan Xiyu.
Several large boxes of genuine silver, if placed outside, might stir a great uproar, but for families like the Qin and Yan, offering gold and silver jewelry as a sign of apology?
This lacked grandeur and wasn’t magnanimous, but rather felt like one was dismissing a beggar.
Just like the Qin family.
The Qin family is the wealthiest in Dongdi, when have they ever lacked gold and silver?
Thus, it was clear that Yan Xiyu’s so-called apology was insincere, otherwise, what he would have brought wouldn’t be gold and silver jewelry, but rather more precious antiques and paintings, or perhaps medicines like the Thousand-year Lingzhi, only such things could please the Second Elder of the Qin Family.
As the saying goes, a smiling face never gets hit. The Second Elder waved his hand, appearing not to fuss over it, yet subtly remarked: "That day, it was fortunate this old body was tough, otherwise I might have lost my old life because of this Yan family girl."
The Yan Family Master chuckled lightly again: "The younger generation is aware of that day’s events, Second Elder, please let it go."
Then, the Yan Family Master took out an item from his sleeve, it was a thin sheet of paper.
"This is the sincerity of our Yan family."
The Yan Family Master handled matters meticulously, and the content recorded on this thin piece of paper was enough to quell the anger of the Second Elder, since the Yan Family Master had even ceded one-fifth of the Yan Family’s assets, a sincerity sufficient to satisfy the Second Elder.
And this was true generosity!
Yan Xiyu was suddenly shocked, casting a venomous and resentful glare at the Yan Family Master.
Everything in the Yan family was hers! Yet this person, her so-called mother, this Yan Family Master actually gave away her assets?
On the other side, the Second Elder was pleased, but he was verbally declining: "This is inappropriate, it is too valuable."
The Yan Family Master thought inwardly, this old fox clearly had smiling eyes, yet still pretended to reject, truly hypocritical.
