Despite this, the red marks on their necks could not be covered up.

If anyone looked at the marks on their necks, they would immediately know what happened between Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng last night.

Furthermore, anyone would be willing to bet that if the Jian brothers saw the marks on Jian Yiling's neck, they would be glaring daggers at Zhai Yunsheng.

In the afternoon, Zhai Yunsheng brought Jian Yiling over to the Zhai Residence to eat with Master Zhai.

As soon as they entered the door, Master Zhai's eyes were drawn to the red marks on Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling's necks.

After a moment of shock, Master Zhai could not control the smile appearing on his lips.

As someone who had once been young, how could he not know what these red marks meant?

He had waited so long for this. The day finally came!

Master Zhai hurriedly invited Jian Yiling to sit down: "Yiling, come over and take a seat. You must be tired after walking so much right?"

However, Jian Yiling only walked from the front door to the living room.

But Master Zhai made it sound like she walked all the way over here from their apartment.

Then, Master Zhai glared at his grandson: "Why don't you take better care of Yiling? Why did you bring her all the way here? You guys don't have to accompany me. It's not a big deal. You can come at any time. There's plenty of opportunities."

Upon hearing this, Zhai Yunsheng muttered: "But someone kept contacting Yiling behind my back."

Instead of contacting his grandson, Master Zhai would often contact Jian Yiling. This was because Jian Yiling often did not know how to say no.

"Then why don't you call me? Do you not have my phone number or something? It doesn't take a lot of time and energy to make a phone call right? Why did you bring Yiling all the way here? Don't you know how to look after her?"

Zhai Yunsheng did not know how to respond when he heard his grandpa's words. Why was his grandpa complaining about them visiting?

Later at night, Jian Yuncheng and Jian Yunnao came to visit Jian Yiling.

As this visit was not planned, they did not give notice to Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling.

When Jian Yiling opened the door for her brothers, Jian Yuncheng and Jian Yunnao's attention was immediately drawn to the red marks on Jian Yiling's neck.

At that moment, the expressions on their faces completely changed. This was especially the case for Jian Yuncheng. His face seemed to be covered with frost.

Then, when he directed his eyes to Zhai Yunsheng who was seated inside the living room if looks could kill, Zhai Yunsheng would have died a thousand times already.

Upon sensing this, Zhai Yunsheng awkwardly touched his nose. He knew he could not avoid confrontation.

"Yiling, go into your room for a bit. I have something to say to Zhai Yunsheng," Jian Yuncheng said as he walked over to Zhai Yunsheng with his long legs.

He seemed very aggressive and not friendly.

When Jian Yunnao heard this, he dragged Jian Yiling into the study room.

And thus, Jian Yuncheng and Zhai Yunsheng were left in the living room.

Even though Zhai Yunsheng felt a little embarrassed, he wasn't ashamed of what had happened. After all, such a thing would happen sooner or later. Even if the Jian brothers weren't happy with this, they couldn't really say anything either.

"Let's discuss this in the other room," Jian Yuncheng said as he headed towards the fitness room.

The room was decorated with some simple sports and fitness equipment. Zhai Yunsheng would use these items to exercise on a regular basis.

There was also fencing equipment on the wall. By the time Zhai Yunsheng entered the room, Jian Yuncheng was already putting on the fencing gear.

His intentions were very clear.

His brother-in-law wanted to fence with him.

In other words, he wanted to vent his frustration in such a way.

And in such a situation, Zhai Yunsheng couldn't be too serious. He couldn't win. He had to lose so his brother-in-law was satisfied.

Winning or losing wasn't important here. He just had to make his brother-in-law happy.

Otherwise, he would have to face many unfortunate things.
