A short while later, Jiang Xuan was brought back by men from the City Lord's Mansion.
"Young Master."
The moment he saw Jiang Chen, Jiang Xuan was on the verge of tears.
He had been detained in the City Lord's Mansion with absolutely no say in the matter.
Now that he was back in the Jiang Family estate, he was still a bit at a loss.
"It's good that you're back."
Jiang Chen stood up and gave Jiang Xuan a gentle smile.
But Jiang Xuan dropped to his knees with a THUD before Jiang Chen.
He said bitterly, "Young Master, I didn't betray the Jiang Family."
"I really didn't."
He held a conviction that he would never betray the Jiang Family. This time, his hands had simply been tied.
Jiang Chen helped Jiang Xuan up and patted his shoulder.
"We all know," he said comfortingly.
"Get up first."
Only then did Jiang Xuan rise and stand by Jiang Chen's side.
Jiang Chen checked him over once and, seeing that there was nothing wrong with him, finally relaxed.
