Is chapter 229 in the past or future because Ti Hian brother doesn’t look that now

It's present? The author changed the drawing a bit ... but supposedly it's not far from the episodes where we saw Jian Yi mom and all that ruckus about his kidnapping. That's why He Cheng is referring to the last time he saw He Tian outside Jian's building.

Ok thanks. He just looks slimmer lol
