Chapter 621
She Is From The Countryside
621 side story 6: the end of the battle between the xuan family
Three months had passed since Shi Yan and Jiang Cheâs wedding.
Those who attended or didnât attend the wedding gradually recovered from the shock of the Grand wedding and returned to their lives and work.
of course, there were some exceptions.
for example, xuan siyun, who didnât show up at the wedding.
three months had passed, and xuan siyun still hadnât recovered from her unwillingness.
she became more and more irascible and lost her usual calmness. old master xuan expressed his disappointment in her more than once.
she had changed so much not just because shi yan and jiang che were married. things had already been set in stone, and she no longer had a chance. It was also because Jiang Rui had established a firm foothold in family Xuanâs company and her status in the family was about to surpass hers.
however, xuan siyun deceived herself and thought that jiang rui was about to surpass her. in reality, anyone with eyes could see that she had lost this battle.
old master xuan was a man of profit.
...
after these few months, he could already see that jiang ruiâs ability was no worse than xuan siyunâs. Between Xuan Siyun, who had offended miss Shi and the fifth master of the Jiang family, and Jiang Rui, who had countless backers, it was obvious who old master Xuan would choose to inherit the Xuan family.
On this day, at the Xuan familyâs banquet.
Even Xuan Siyunâs father and Xuan Liuying were called back.
This was the first time in twenty years that Xuan Liuying had stepped into the Xuan familyâs door. She was filled with emotion, but she was more concerned about something else.
for example, would jiang rui be in trouble at the family dinner today?
thus, xuan liuying only sighed for a short while, and her attention was not on this.
â cousin, you seem to be in a good state today. cough cough cough cough cough cough. â
outside the main hall of the xuan family, xuan jinrui, who was sitting in a wheelchair, met xuan siyun.
xuan siyun was still dressed in a capable and experienced outfit. the sickly xuan jinrui in the wheelchair was a sharp contrast to her state. however, xuan jinrui was only in poor physical condition. he looked much more high-spirited than xuan siyun.
âWhat is cousin so proud of? No matter what, Iâve lived longer than my cousin. cousin brother is really generous, willing to be someone elseâs wedding dress!â
âItâs true that youâll live longer than me, but whatâs the use of living longer? cousin, for someone as proud as you, without your previous status, you will only live more painfully. i hope that you can live a little longer.â
...
after he finished speaking, xuan jinrui coughed a few more times before he barely recovered.
âAs for making a wedding dress for someone else, my body doesnât allow it.â Xuan Jinrui looked at her and smiled. as long as itâs not you, Xuan Siyun, as long as itâs not your family, it doesnât matter who inherits the Xuan family!
Xuan Siyunâs expression turned ugly,âthen weâll see!â Jiang Rui is just a young girl, do you really think I will lose to her?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
xuan jinrui smiled. â youâre obviously going to lose. yet, youâre still so self-confident. â Cousin, this is what I admire about you.â
Then, he pushed his wheelchair into the house, ignoring Xuan Siyunâs anger.
âDad, mom.â
Seeing Xuan Liuying, the two elders of the Xuan family did not have much emotional fluctuations.
Old master Xuan glanced at her and said, â âsince youâre here, sit down.â
Xuan Liuying smiled bitterly. she should have given up when the yu family got into trouble twenty years ago and the xuan family cut off all ties with her.
âMom, sit here.â
jiang rui pulled out the chair beside her.
...
When she saw Jiang Rui, the sadness in Xuan Liuyingâs heart disappeared.
âAlright,â he said. She asked Jiang Rui, â how have you been in Jingdu? you have to work for the company and also take care of your studies. it must be tiring, right?â
âIâm a little tired.â Jiang Rui said honestly.
Xuan Siyun, who was sitting opposite him, said coldly, â âsince you feel tired, why donât you just focus on your lessons? there will be plenty of opportunities after graduation if you want to join family xuanâs company. itâs only right for you to do what you should at your current stage. you should stay in school and study well, donât take on so many things.â
âI donât like to hear cousinâs words.â Xuan Jinrui smiled and looked at Xuan Siyun. I remember that my cousin started to work in the company since her second year. Why is it that you can do it, but not after you changed your cousin? In terms of ability, younger cousin sister is not inferior to you now. The you back then could not be compared to her at all.â
There werenât many juniors in the Xuan family who could take on great responsibilities.
if xuan jinrui was in good health, jiang rui would not have spoken her true thoughts so bluntly. but xuan jinrui was not in good health! they couldnât support house xuan at all.
Then she and Xuan Siyun would be the only ones left in the Xuan family.
In terms of benefits, she was more suitable than Xuan Siyun to inherit the Xuan family.
As expected, the old man quickly said,âwhatâs the fuss about?â the children of the xuan family arenât born to be happy. since rui âer has the ability, itâs good for her to enter the company earlier to train.â
he was clearly biased towards jiang rui.
...
Xuan Siyunâs face fell.
xuan siyunâs father was probably the only one still eating in the dining room.
anyway, he wouldnât be able to do anything, and he didnât have any feelings for his daughter, xuan siyun, so he might as well keep his distance and not ask anything. As long as house Xuan didnât collapse, he wouldnât go hungry.
Seeing that her father not only didnât help her, but also ate happily, Xuan Siyun was even angrier.
âiâve called everyone here today because the old master has a few words to say.â Old Madam Xuan said.
no one was surprised.
House Xuan didnât value family ties and didnât have the habit of holding family banquets.
âi have three things to say today.â
Old master Xuanâs indifferent gaze swept over them.
âFirst, Jinruiâs health has been getting worse recently. I plan to let him go home and rest. jinrui, what do you think?â
Xuan Jinrui covered his mouth and coughed. Iâm about to mention it too, grandfather. My health is getting worse by the day and I donât want to stay at work for the rest of my life. Thank you for your concern.
...
xuan jinruiâs reaction was very calm as he had already expected this day to come.
but,
she had abandoned him so easily as if he was just a tool without any value. it was still a little disheartening.
This was the Xuan family.
if it wasnât for the fact that he wanted xuan siyun to have a taste of the pain heâd suffered, heâd rather the xuan family go down like this. he wasnât the one who benefited from house xuanâs prosperity anyway.
for someone like xuan siyun, the best revenge would be to let the xuan family fall into someone elseâs hands, and she could only watch helplessly as her pride was trampled under her feet.
âIf you can think like this, your grandmother and I will be at ease. Your grandmother is always concerned about your health.â
xuan jinrui sneered in his heart, but he did not show it on his face.âiâve let grandfather and grandmother worry.â
âThe second thing, Siyun.â
xuan siyun was called out by the old man.
she sneered in her heart.
...
âThe way youâve been doing things is getting more and more disappointing.â
âiâm sorry, grandfather. iâll be more careful in the future.â
âthis is not the first time iâve been disappointed in you. iâve given you many chances.â Old master Xuan looked at her calmly.
Xuan Siyun was anxious,âgrandfather!!!â
Old master Xuan raised his hand and interrupted him.
â youâve been out of it recently. sort out your work and hand it over to someone else. you should go abroad to relax. â
âGrandfather, are you going to give up on me? Iâm the heir youâve personally chosen, arenât you afraid of people saying that youâre changing your orders all the time?â
âchange orders at night? you shouldâve known that house xuan has always been occupied by the capable. one day, when youâre strong enough, you can come back and bring more benefits to house xuan. iâll still put you in an important position.â
since he had already said this, there was no room for negotiation.
âGrandfather, youâre so ruthless!â
xuan siyun got up and kicked the chair hard. she looked at the crowd and her eyes fell on jiang ruiâs face.âjiang rui, you think youâve won? thatâs how house xuan is. they could give up on xuan jinrui in the past, they can give up on me now, and they can even give up on you in the future!â
Jiang Rui looked up at her and smiled. thank you for your reminder, cousin. But I think Iâm different from you. I wonât let myself fall into your situation.
The heir of house Xuan?
She had wasted almost a year in the capital. She didnât want to be an heir. She either didnât want it, or she wanted absolute power.
â cousin, let me know when youâre done handing over your work. iâll go to the airport to give you a lift. â
xuan siyunâs eyes were poisonous. jiang rui smiled innocently and wasnât afraid of her.
after xuan siyun left in anger, xuan jinrui said to jiang rui, â âXuan Siyun has been in the company for many years and knows the company very well. You should be careful of her and donât let her cause any trouble at the last minute.â
he didnât even try to hide it from old master xuan.
And old master Xuan?
he didnât seem to hear her.
Jiang Rui just smiled and looked at Xuan Jinrui without saying a word.
Even if she did not say anything, Xuan Jinrui understood her meaning.
she was saying that not only would she be on guard against xuan siyun, but she would also be on guard against him.
cousin, you donât have to be on guard against me. Iâll sort out the work in my hands and hand it over tomorrow. I wonât interfere with the companyâs Affairs anymore.
âLook at cousinâs words, when did I say I would guard against you? i have something i want to confirm with you.â
âyingluo, tell me.â
âcousin, were you the one who caused my motherâs car accident in haicheng?â she was obviously laughing without a care in the world, but it gave people inexplicable pressure.
xuan jinrui looked into her eyes without a change in expression. â âNo.â
âItâs good that youâre not.â Jiang Rui laughed. otherwise, Iâd have to give up on the idea of getting a doctor to take a look at you. the fourth young master of the yun family is very skilled in medicine, not to mention miracle doctor su and my fifth uncleâs. if we can invite any one of them to take a look at cousin brother, perhaps cousin brotherâs situation will ease up.â
her words made xuan jinruiâs eyes light up.
No one wanted to die. Xuan Jinrui also wanted to live a little longer. It was not that he had not gone to these people to seek treatment before, but even the four young masters of the Yun family, Yun Jian, had rejected him on the grounds that they had too many patients to take care of, let alone miracle doctor su and the fifth master of the Jiang family.
If it was Jiang Rui who had helped, given her friendship with Shi Yan, she might have been able to escape.
However, the next second, his beautiful expectations were shattered.
Jiang Rui smiled and said, â itâs just that I donât have that much face in front of them. I can only help you ask. The chances arenât high. Donât have too high of an expectation.
It was so obvious that he had given him hope, but it was also so obvious that he had killed it.
Jiang Rui did it on purpose!
xuan jinruiâs good-tempered facade almost crumbled.âiâm already very happy that younger cousin yingluo has this intention. i wonât force it.â
â cousin is really open-minded. if the doctor had determined that i only had two years to live, i definitely wouldnât be as open-minded as cousin. â
xuan jinrui slammed his chopsticks on the table.
jiang rui pretended to be confused,âwhatâs wrong with cousin?â Did I say something wrong to make you angry? Iâm sorry, I didnât mean to.â
âyingluo didnât do that! Iâm just full!â Xuan Jinrui took a deep breath. you guys eat slowly. Iâm not feeling well so Iâll go back to rest first!
âCousin, are you not feeling well? Then hurry back and rest. do you want me to get someone to send you off?â Jiang Rui asked with concern.
However, when Xuan Jinrui looked at her coldly, she secretly gave Xuan Jinrui an evil smile.
he dared to scheme against her and force her into a car accident. this matter would not pass with her. After cooperating with Xuan Jinrui for half a year, she could finally vent her anger.
She did not intend to let her hands be stained with human lives. Anyway, Xuan Jinrui did not have many days left to live, so she did not have to. However, it was necessary to teach Xuan Jinrui a lesson to vent his anger.
after xuan jinrui left in anger, both old master xuan and old madam xuan stared at jiang rui.
Jiang Rui grinned. grandfather, grandmother, donât just stare at me. Eat. The food will get cold if you donât eat.
The two of them looked at her deeply and retracted their gazes. They continued to eat as if nothing had happened.
Xuan Liuying was initially a little worried about Jiang Rui, but seeing that she had the upper hand, she heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, she was also proud and pleased.
It was indeed worthy of being the bloodline of that person, Yingying.
âDid we really do the right thing? jiang rui isnât old, but sheâs not soft. from my observation, sheâs not as easy to manipulate as your other grandchildren. If sheâs really chosen as the heir, then youâll have nothing to do with the Xuan family.â after dinner, they returned to their own courtyards and old madam xuan said to old master xuan, â
âIf you can see it, how can I not? But itâs no longer house Xuan who chooses her, itâs her who chooses house Xuan.â old master xuan said.
âit was easy to pull her in back then, but now itâs not up to us to get her out. Besides, if she gives up on house Xuan now, the biggest loss wonât be her, but house Xuan!â
Old master Xuan sighed,âfortunately, Jiang Rui promised the Xuan family that her family name would always be Xuan, instead of Jiang or Yu.â When Jiang Rui takes over, with her abilities and the support behind her, family Xuan can still prosper for a few more decades.â
âForget it, letâs leave it at that.â
âWhat about Siyun? Arenât you worried that sheâll come back and cause trouble when sheâs fully grown?â
âwhat are you worried about? if she had the ability to take back house xuan from jiang rui, how could house xuan be any worse in her hands?â
âget someone to keep an eye on her. donât let her cause any trouble before she goes abroad. Theyâve been fighting for so long, and house Xuan has already suffered great losses. If they continue, itâll only harm their interests.â
âIâll send someone to keep an eye on him,â old Madam Xuan replied.
Xuan Siyun wasnât that quiet, but Jiang Rui was prepared and old master Xuan had people keep an eye on her, so Xuan Siyun didnât cause much trouble.
half a month later, xuan siyun went to the airport with her tail between her legs.
xuan jinrui went to send her off personally, but jiang rui did not.
She was holding a shareholders âmeeting at the company.
âCousin, Iâm here to send you off.â
Someone helped Xuan Jinrui push his wheelchair into the airport.
âxuan jinrui, youâre not much better than me, whatâs there to be proud of? also, if you can come back to the country in this state, do you think iâll stay abroad for the rest of my life?â
âthen, i wish you all the best, cousin.â
xuan siyun didnât know if it was an illusion, but she felt that there was something wrong with xuan jinruiâs smile.
not wanting to embarrass herself by meeting someone she knew at the airport, she did not think deeply about what was wrong with xuan jinrui. she snorted coldly and turned to check her ticket.
Xuan Siyunâs question was only answered when the plane landed.
Xuan Jinrui recorded a video and sent it to her.
in the video, xuan jinrui was sitting alone in the study. he smiled at the camera and said, â âCousin, I forgot to tell you that I did something. I changed the destination that grandfather originally set for you to the country I was exiled to. thatâs right, grandfather still showed you mercy. he was afraid that you wouldnât be able to keep your life in the country i used to stay in, so he specially chose a country far away from the one i was in.â
âHow can I do that? iâve never wanted you to be exiled. a car accident took my parents âlives and turned me into this. of course, i have to get one back.â
cousin, guess if Iâve met one or two local people I can talk to in the past few years abroad? â
âReturn to China? cousin, i guess you can only dream about it. Do you want to try the wheelchair? donât worry, you wonât be as short-lived as me. youâll live for a long time. however, iâm afraid youâll have to spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair.â
âOh, right, Iâll have someone send you news about the Xuan family and your old friends in the capital so that you can know the situation in the capital from thousands of miles away.â
âhow is it? cousin is good to you, right? No need to thank me!â
At the end of the scene, Xuan Jinruiâs smile was a little creepy, and his eyes were filled with hatred and the joy of having taken revenge.
After watching the video, Xuan Siyun directly smashed her phone on the ground.
no matter how angry she was, her trip to a foreign country was destined to be a tough one.
