He just left him lying there unconcious? Which btw is because he strangled him to begin with!? WTH. I get it that in such desperate situations you seek someone to blame and yo might say or do hurtful things (which you eventually regret and apologize for big time), but he just left him there!!
Wow, you lost so many sympathy points bc of that. I mean the strangling was actually already bad enough... but anyway.

    And jiang Cheng doesn’t ever feel bad for what he did even when wuxian got his parents bodies back for him

    Jiang Cheng holds Wei Wuxian responsible for his father's and Lady Yu's deaths. He considers WWX's innate heroism to be a form of egoism, and thinks that he betrayed his primary loyalty to their family by deflecting Wen Cao's direct malice and jealousy away from Lan Xian. Even if Jiang Cheng doesn't know that Wei Wuxian stole the yin iron sword that was in the Slaughter Tortoise's belly, he thinks his sworn brother has brought down the wrath of the Wen's onto their clan by killing the Slaughter Xuanwu for the sake of looking like a hero. I'm not saying this is fair, reasonable or even rational, but that's the world through Jiang Cheng's eyes, which is why I like this author so much. She adds complexity and nuance to what are usually hackneyed story tropes.
