Wan Chu'er entered the room to find the atmosphere extremely tense; everyone was staring at her with unfriendly expressions, and Aunt Jiang was glaring at her fiercely, looking as though she might pounce and tear her apart at any second.
Stepping in confidently, Wan Chu'er greeted everyone politely: "Hello, everyone."
Father Jiang then helped Old Sir Zhong into the room, leading him straight to the seat of honor alongside Mr. Jiang.
It was only then that Father Jiang looked up to survey the relatives gathered in the room, spotting faces filled with either cold indifference or outright hostility. His own face darkened with disapproval as he pressed down his anger and said:
"Today, I don't want any disturbances from anyone. If any of you make trouble, don't bother coming to me in the future. This is Xiao Chu's maternal grandfather, Old Sir Zhong."
