Chapter 574
She Is From The Countryside
574 the wheel was punctured
âto be honest, i still donât understand why my second brother still chose to do this even though he clearly knows that fifth lord jiangâs marriage is not something that old master jiang can control. not only is he useless, but he has also offended you and the fifth lord jiang for no reason.â
she had directly â betrayed â xie xingran because xie xingran knew that she could not hide these things from shi yan and jiang che. as long as they wanted to, they could easily find out that xie xingchen was involved in this matter.
but heâs still my second brother. No matter how close we are, Iâm still where I am today because of him and my adoptive parents. I canât be ungrateful, so I wonât help you find out why my second brother did this.
ânot only that, i even want to be thick-skinned and plead with you for my second brother. No matter what purpose my second brother had for doing all this, it didnât affect you and the fifth Lord much. if itâs possible, i hope that you and fifth lord jiang can let him off the hook, or just hand him over to my big brother to deal with. my big brother will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation.â
......
Xie xingran left first.
shi yan didnât give an answer to xie xingranâs plea, but she didnât refuse either.
before this, xie heng had already told her and jiang che that he would give them an explanation. they had also agreed and had no reason to go back on their word.
not only shi yan, but even jiang che, his love rival, believed in xie hengâs character. since he said that he would give an explanation, he would not be perfunctory.
...
After Xie xingran left, Shi Yan finished the glass of wine with a low alcohol content that she had just ordered.
However, he did not manage to leave successfully.
Just as she was about to start the car, she realized that the wheel was broken.
tong yan got off the car to check. shi yan also got off the car.
the wheel had been pierced by a nail.
âMiss Yan, Iâm afraid we canât drive this car for the time being. Iâll call someone to send another car over, but weâll have to wait for half an hour.â
âiâm sorry, miss yan. i was careless and didnât pay attention when i parked the car.â
Seeing her blaming herself, Shi Yan said helplessly, â âwhat does this have to do with you? Besides, itâs not a big deal.â
it was as if she was usually very scary.
âNo matter what, I was too careless.â Tong Yan still blamed himself.
It was mainly because Tong Yan felt that she had accompanied Shi Yan out. Fortunately, only the tire had been punctured. If her negligence had caused a bigger problem, especially a big problem that was deliberately caused by someone, then she would have to bear the blame.
...
âItâs not a big deal, so thereâs no need to send another car. Weâll take a taxi.â
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by a voice, â âMiss Shi.â
shi yan turned around and saw xie heng walking over.
âwhat happened? do you need any help?â
Shi Yan didnât hide anything and told him the truth. â the wheel was punctured. itâs a small matter. i can handle it. â
xie heng glanced at the punctured tire and said, Iâm afraid it wonât be settled in a short time. Itâs getting late, and itâs not safe for you two girls. If you donât mind, Iâll give you a ride.
at this time, tong yan would naturally not interrupt. she stood quietly at the side, waiting for shi yan to make a decision. she would not speak her mind over shi yan.
thank you for your kind intentions, master. We wonât trouble you. Weâll just take a taxi.
Shi Yan said, smiled and nodded to Xie Heng. Then, she took Tong Yan to the roadside to hail a taxi.
It was very convenient to get a taxi here, and they got one in a short while.
Xie Heng didnât insist, but he didnât leave before Shi Yan got a taxi. He just stood there and watched.
...
after getting a taxi, shi yan opened the door, politely nodded to xie heng, and sat in the car.
when the car was far away, xie hengâs expressionless face suddenly became cold. he glanced at a dark corner,âCome out!â
a person walked out from the corner.
there was no fear, and there was even a frivolous smile on his face.âBig brother,â
it was the second young master of the xie family, xie xingchen.
âthe reason.â Xie Hengâs eyes were deep and dark.
those who were familiar with xie heng knew that he was angry.
xie xingchen was very familiar with his elder brother, xie heng, but he did not seem to be afraid of xie hengâs anger at all. or perhaps he was afraid, but he hid it well and did not show it.
She didnât get close, just standing not too far away from Xie Heng.
âI thought big brother knew why I did that.â
âitâs just a woman. since big brother is interested, then just snatch her over. itâs not big brotherâs style to be so overcautious. How can our Xie family be inferior to the Jiang family? big brother, how are you any worse than the fifth master of the jiang family?â
...
â this young lady of the shi family should be big brotherâs fiancée, and big brother is interested in her. why donât big brother qianqian be willing to give in, but i canât bear to see big brother being so aggrieved! â
only then did xie heng seriously look at his cousin.
his relationship with xie xingchen could not be considered deep. even when there were rumors in the outside world that xie xingchen was not willing to be inferior to others and was his enemy, he had never doubted it. it was just that he had always felt that xie xingchen was not a threat to him, so he did not take these rumors seriously.
now, it seemed that xie xingchen really regarded him as a big brother.
after staring at xie xingchen for a while, xie heng frowned slightly. â âis this the reason why you created the storm of the marriage between the xie family and the jiang family?â
glancing at the car that belonged to shi yan, xie heng frowned even more. â you even dare to do something like breaking someoneâs wheel. xie xingchen, are you helping me or mocking me? â
xie xingchen was the one who had punctured shi yanâs tire. xie heng had arrived in time because he had received a message from xie xingchen informing him that he had punctured shi yanâs tire.
Xie Heng was not a sloppy person. Since he had decided to withdraw, he would not hesitate. If the wheel had not been broken by Xie Xingchen, he might not have appeared in front of Shi Yan and offered to help. If Jiang che found out that he had really sent Shi Yan back in the middle of the night, it would probably bring trouble to Shi Yan again.
however, he had to admit that he was looking forward to having such an opportunity to interact with shi yan. therefore, he did not send someone else to deal with it. instead, he came personally.
he couldnât help but feel disappointed that shi yan had really rejected him.
his disappointment was real, but he also felt that it should be like this.
...
shi yan had always been a clean and efficient person.
he also needed her to be so clean and neat.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âor is it that, in your opinion, iâm someone who canât afford to lose?â he looked at xie xingchen.
Xie Xingchen hurriedly shook his head. thatâs not it. I just feel that big brother is no worse than the one from the Jiang family. Thereâs no need to be so aggrieved.
â i donât think this is your so-called grievance. you know that itâs fruitless, but itâs very likely to cause trouble for others, and yet you still do it. itâs really stupid to trouble others and trap yourself. â
âi have my own plans for my own matters, itâs not your turn to interfere! this is the last time!â
Xie Xingchen was still unwilling to give up, but under the gaze of Xie Hengâs dark eyes, he nodded.âi wonât act on my own in the future.â
âif itâs not necessary, i donât want to be on bad terms with the jiang familyâs fifth lord. I promised to give them an explanation for this incident. Since you dared to do this behind my back, you should know that I wonât let this go. Find a time to come with me to apologize in person, and then return to the Xie family to receive the punishment you deserve.â
It was not that Xie Heng was afraid of Jiang che that he did not want to become enemies with him. He knew that Shi Yan would definitely stand on Jiang Cheâs side. If they really became enemies, he would definitely go against Shi Yan.
this was not something he wanted to see.
Not to mention his friendship with Shi Yan, he was also partly responsible for Shi Yanâs suffering for so many years.
...
After all, he owed her.
xie xingchen was still unwilling, but he did not disobey xie heng.
âzhenzhen, iâll listen to big brother.â
on the other side, in the taxi.
âoh right, miss yan, the eldest daughter of the xuan family, xuan siyun, came to visit yanyun manor this afternoon. she didnât leave even after being rejected. sheâs still at the main entrance of yanyun manor. would you like to meet her?â
