Meanwhile, outside, there were several pairs of watchful eyes fixed on Jiang Jincheng. He immediately raised both hands, looking completely harmless.
"Sorry, uncles, didn't mean to disturb you."
Su Yan crossed his arms and looked at him with obvious displeasure, as if everything about him annoyed him.
"You knew you'd be disturbing us, but you still came?"
Jiang Jincheng chuckled awkwardly. "Well, since I just got back, I figured I should visit you all. By the way, I brought gifts for all of you uncles—they're still outside. It's… hard to bring them in if nobody opens the door."
Mu Shen stared at him. "So, it's too hard to bring the gifts in, but you had no problem scaling the wall to sneak inside, huh?"
"Well, objects are inanimate, but people… people are resourceful..."
Caught under their piercing gazes, Jiang Jincheng's voice trailed off, and he quickly admitted, "I was wrong."
But if there's a next time, he'd still dare. After all, it's their fault for not letting him in.
