Ye Xiao, upon hearing Jiang Wuqi's words, naturally understood.
The Jiang family, being a major clan in Bird City and having always maintained a neutral stance, could not openly protect Ye Xiao without giving others a pretext. However, not helping openly didn't mean they wouldn't help at all; Jiang Wuqi's words made that very clear. As long as Ye Xiao truly needed help, the Jiang family would certainly step forward.
"Mr. Jiang, thank you!" Ye Xiao stood up and once again bowed with his hands clasped in front of him.
Jiang Wuqi chuckled and said, "I enjoy dealing with promising and justice-minded young people like you, Ye Xiao. You don't need to call me Mr. Jiang. If you don't feel it beneath you, you can call me Grandpa, just like Jiang Chuan and Coco do. Of course, if you feel that's a loss for you, that's fine too."
