Chapter 586
She Is From The Countryside
586 Merciless face-slapping
jiang yuâs smile was a little evil, completely different from his usual gentle image as a university professor. he was like a demon.
â donât try to pressure me with the honor of the family. i donât have that kind of thing. whether the jiang family is prosperous or ruined has nothing to do with me. i donât rely on the jiang family for a living. â
âI just canât stand how you guys do things!â
âSince youâre asking for a favor, you should act like youâre asking for a favor. While youâre asking for a favor, youâre defending against them, and even secretly trying to hinder them. i wonât talk about the past, iâll only talk about the recent events.â
Jiang Yu stepped forward and looked at Jiang Yan and Bai Xue, whose expressions were uglier than the other.âgrandfather, grandmother, you all know that my fifth uncle has a partner in sea city. if you are not satisfied, you can directly go to my fifth uncle and tell him. you donât dare to go find fifth uncle, so you spread rumors about your intention to marry into the xie family. who are you trying to disgust?â
She glanced at Shi Yan and said,âI donât think much of this miss Shi either. In my opinion, no one is worthy of fifth uncle. However, sheâs the person whom fifth uncle values.â since fifth uncle likes her, then i will naturally acknowledge her as fifth aunt.â
âlook at you guys, why are you pulling a long face? Dare to do but not admit? Eh, you guys donât think that you can hide this from everyone, do you? or do you think that even if they know, no one will say it out loud, so you can pretend that nothing happened?â
âwhat are you thinking? how can there be such a good thing in this world?â
âif you dare to do it, i dare to say it. If youâre angry, you can come and settle the score with me later, and Iâll accompany you. I just donât know if the Jiang family can still stand the torment now.â
...
He turned to look at white snow and said with a bit of disdain,âalso, grandmother, forget about grandfather, youâre my fifth uncleâs mother. what good does it do you to target my fifth uncle? I donât know what youâre thinking, but you treat your stepsons better than your own sons.â
âdo you want others to praise you as a good stepmother?â
White Snowâs face was red and white, and it was a little twisted.
âDonât act so devilishly usually, itâs quite embarrassing, and itâs very easy to be slapped in the face. look, didnât i get slapped in the face today?â
you thought that miss Shi was just a country bumpkin without any background and looked down on her. You queued up and went to Haicheng one by one to cause trouble for her. Do you feel embarrassed now? â
The people who had gone to Haicheng to cause trouble for Shi Yan blushed and did not dare to look up, especially Jiang Wen and Jiang Yuxiao, who kept their heads so low that they wished no one could see them.
They couldnât afford to provoke Shi Yan, no matter which identity she revealed. They were afraid that Shi Yan would bring up old scores with them and make their already bad situation worse.
if you ask me, fifth uncle is too soft-hearted. If it were me, I wouldnât care if they were related by blood or if they were biological parents. I would settle the score with them one by one!
some people looked at jiang che.
His expression did not change at all. He would occasionally look at Shi Yan, who was standing on the stage, or look at Jiang Yu like an onlooker. It was as if Jiang Yu was not talking about him and he was just an outsider.
He was not affected by external factors at all, and his heart was so calm. He was indeed worthy of being the fifth Lord Jiang.
...n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
however, was jiang yu serious when he said that the fifth lord was too soft-hearted?
Although the fifth Lord Jiang was a gentlemanly man who looked gentle and reserved, he was truly ruthless when he needed to be. Otherwise, there wouldnât be so many people who respected and feared him.
âthatâs all i want to say.â
she smiled at shi yan and said,âiâm sorry, miss shi. iâve stolen your limelight.â Itâs just that there are some things that should be said in such a crowded place.â
âItâs fine,â shi yan replied with a smile.
Not to mention that she wasnât someone who liked to be in the limelight, she intended to lower her presence once she achieved her goal. Even if she liked to show off, she didnât mind Jiang Yuâs actions at all.
It would be better to steal the limelight a few more times.
she liked it when people stood up for jiang che like this.
jiang yu was a good person.
After making everyone anxious, Jiang Yu disappeared before they could react.
Shi poran retracted his attention and was about to reach out to help Shi Yan off the stage when he saw Jiang che walk up.
...
âIâll do it,â he said to Shi poran.
Shi Yan nodded at Shi poran, then smiled and placed her hand in Jiang Cheâs, letting him lead her down the stage.
it was not until the three of them had left the high platform that the crowd gradually recovered from the shocking scene just now.
He couldnât help but sigh that Jiang Xi really lived up to the saying âwhen youâre silent, youâll amaze the world with a single brilliant featâ!
as everyone knew, jiang shasha and jiang yu were the most indifferent to fame and fortune.
But today, Jiang Yu looked very different from how he was known to everyone. he dared to criticize his grandparents in public, and he didnât even let his father off.
he had even stood on the opposite side of the whole family and spoke to the fifth lord jiang. this was not something that could be achieved with courage, but with confidence.
sure enough, the people from a family like the jiang family were not simple.
after they came back to their senses, someone wanted to go forward and chat with shi yan. most of the people who came to this banquet came with the intention of befriending the host of the banquet.
however, jiang che, the revered fifth lord jiang, was right beside shi yan. those who wanted to make friends with shi yan did not dare to approach her.
He chose to wait and see.
...
Old master Shi and old Madam Shi were the first to walk up to them.
The two old men were in a complicated mood.
It was hard not to feel complicated. So many things had popped up in front of him.
âyanyan,â Xie Xi n called out to her with a smile. Unlike the other kind old ladies, he didnât come forward to hold the hands of the younger generation to show his concern.
They were not too close, but they were not too distant either.
perhaps it was because xie xi nâs image as a strong woman was too deeply rooted in peopleâs hearts, her kind smile was already very different from her usual self in the eyes of others.
âGrandmother.â
Shi Yan smiled and nodded to Shi Min. âGrandfather.â
Shi Chen looked at her, as if he had a thousand words to say. After a long time, he only said a few words, â âItâs good, itâs good.â
other people didnât know what he meant by âquite easy.â most people thought he was talking about shi yan and jiang cheâs marriage.
Shi Yan knew that it was not the case.
...
he was talking about yanyun manor, amy, chugo, and the other people, as well as their respective properties.
shi yan smiled back at shi xun and said nothing.
It wasnât that he didnât want to say it, but he didnât know what was appropriate.
How did she manage to do so much under their strict surveillance?
this was more or less showing off and acting in a fit of pique, so there was no need to.
Besides, Amy and the others were the ones who were capable, not her. she only gave some money and some suggestions, but she didnât do anything. To be more specific, these achievements belonged to Amy and the others, and had little to do with her.
however, if amy and the others were willing to acknowledge her and help her, she would not refuse.
she didnât need these things in the past, but now that she was with jiang che, she needed them.
However, Shi Yan didnât speak, so the atmosphere inevitably became a little subtle.
xie xi n sighed in his heart and took the initiative to break the subtle atmosphere, â â yanyan, your dress is not bad. it suits you very well. â
thank you, grandmother. Jiang che chose this.
...
at the mention of jiang che, shi yanâs smile became more lively.
Xie Xi n,âhehe.â
Oh? â he lifted his eyes and glanced at Jiang che. you have good taste.
âthank you,â he said. jiang che replied calmly.
xie xi n was speechless.
did he really think she was complimenting him?
even though he did have good taste.
seeing that many people were hesitating and wanted to talk to him, xie xi n thought that they would only make the atmosphere more awkward if they continued to stay here, so he simply said, â we wonât disturb you young people. Your grandfather and I will go home first. Weâll come over early tomorrow and wait for you to come over for lunch.
âAlright, grandmother.â
jiang che glanced at shi yan and followed suit. â âalright, grandmother.â
shi chen and xie xi n gave him a complicated look.
Jiang che didnât mind.
it was only when she met shi yanâs smiling eyes that a smile appeared in her eyes.
as soon as the two old men left, someone was ready to step forward.
Naturally, they were not those onlookers. Most of them knew Shi Yan or Jiang che.
jiang rui was one of them.
she was very excited now.
To be precise, she had started to get excited since Shi Yanâs high-profile appearance.
not to mention the others, seeing xuan siyunâs face of disbelief and shock, she was very happy.
but she was still a step slower than xuan siyun.
âso student shi is the young miss of the shi family. iâve been disrespectful!â
âMiss Xuan,â Shi Yan smiled and nodded at her.
I thought that miss Xuan would care more about my identity as the host of this banquet than the Miss of the Shi family. It seems that she isnât.
