Chapter 547
547 she would know very soon
Shi Yan, Jiang Rui, and the others didn’t stay in the small courtyard for long before they came to the front hall. On the way, they met three people and one of them called out to them.
“Miss Shi Yan!”
Usually, the people who would address Shi Yan this way were those who had a little relationship with Jiang che and did not dare to disrespect him. The one who spoke was the third young miss of the Jiang family, Jiang Yun, whom he had not seen for a while.
she was also dressed in an evening gown, and there were two boys beside her. they were both familiar faces to shi yan-the jiang family’s second young master jiang bai and the han family’s second young master han yu.
“Third young miss Jiang,” Shi Yan replied with a smile.
just then, her phone rang.
she smiled and apologized to jiang yun before walking to the side to answer the phone.
It was Amy.
when shi yan picked up the phone, jiang rui, jiang yun, and the others chatted in low voices.
“When did second young master and third young miss arrive in Haicheng? Are you also here to attend my cousin’s engagement party? why is second brother han here? do you know each other?” this was actually a bit of nonsense, but it was just a casual chat, so jiang rui didn’t really care about it.
“I was a little bored and came out for a walk. I just happened to meet him.” hanyu said with a smile.
then, he smiled and nodded to song meilian and gu qingqing as a greeting.
Jiang Yun looked at Jiang Rui and said in a strange tone,”Rui ‘er, we haven’t seen each other for a while. Why have you grown distant from me again?” didn’t i tell you to call me by my name? or else, i’m older than you, so you can call me sister yun!”
even though he said that, he did not want jiang rui to correct the way he addressed her. he continued,”second brother and i just arrived in haicheng this morning. we rushed here after getting off the plane. After all, we’ve been in Haicheng for a few days and we’ve met the young master of the SU family and the young lady of the Jing family. It’s their engagement party, of course we have to come and join in the fun.”
After that, they chatted for a while. They were all insignificant topics. Jiang Yun’s eyes would look at Shi Yan from time to time, who was on the phone. Jiang Rui and the other two could tell at a glance that she was not out for a stroll, but looking for Shi Yan.
Although Shi Yan was on the phone, she did not ignore Jiang Yun’s gaze.
” yes, i understand. yingluo, you don’t have to do anything for the time being. i have my own arrangements. ”
the call was hung up quickly.
amy called shi yan and told her about the recent rumors in the capital city about the marriage between the fifth master jiang and the eldest daughter of the xie family. she also sent two videos to shi yan.
One was a scene of someone discussing this matter in a low voice in a corner of a banquet. The light was very dim, and the person’s appearance could not be seen clearly, but the voices of the discussion could be heard clearly. one was a long-distance video with three main characters in it. they were the jiang family’s old master, jiang xun, the jiang family’s old lady, bai xue, and a young girl.
it was at the entrance of a restaurant.
the camera was a little far away, and the girl’s back was facing the camera, so he couldn’t see what she looked like. however, it wasn’t difficult to guess that this young girl should be the legendary eldest daughter of the xie family, xie xingran, from what amy had said.
after listening to amy’s painting and watching the two videos, shi yan’s mood wasn’t affected at all, at least on the surface.
It was as if he had just received an ordinary phone call.
seeing that she had hung up the phone and was walking over, jiang yun smiled and said, ” “Miss Shi Yan, have you finished your call?”
“yes.” shi yan smiled and nodded.
jiang yun looked at shi yan as if she wanted to say something, but she hesitated when she saw that there were other people around. Just as he was about to speak to Shi Yan, Hanyu beat him to it.
“Cousin of the Shi family, su mu knows that I’m coming, so he asked me to tell you something,” said Han Yu.
His gaze swept across the others.
It was obvious that he wanted them to leave.
no one was stupid. jiang rui said, ” “yan, we’ll wait for you in front. i think the view is pretty good, so i’ll ask meilian to take some photos of qingqing and me.”
“Sister Yun, let’s go together.” He called Jiang Yun.
“alright.” That was the only way. He would talk about her later.
seeing that the others had left and only the two of them were left, hanyu said to shi yan, ” “Su mu wanted to come to you himself, but a distinguished guest that he had to personally receive arrived. He couldn’t leave at the moment, so he asked me to come to you.”
Coming out for a walk was just an excuse he told the outside world.
he wants to tell you that the three young masters of the Shi family, which are your three brothers, have called fifth master Jiang to the rest area alone. I don’t know what they are talking about, but he wants you to come and take a look as soon as possible.
su mu was also worried that the three sister-doting demons would fight with jiang che. Shi Yan had already put on the proposal ring, but they still didn’t know about it.
“but you don’t have to worry. when i came over, their conversation had already ended, and the fifth lord jiang had already left the rest area.”
When su mu saw them in the rest area, their conversation had come to an end.
“i didn’t plan to come and find you, but i thought it would be better to bring su mu’s words to you, so i came here.”
“thank you for the information, second young master han.”
han yu waved his hand nonchalantly. ” it’s just a small matter. you’re welcome. ”
it’s too boring at the banquet. I’ll stay outside for a while. Cousin Shi, you can go first.
he was definitely not bored, but he was tired of socializing.
shi yan could also tell. out of gratitude, she said, there’s a small courtyard 500 meters ahead. It’s quieter there. Second young master han, you can go there and have a seat.
It was a guest house of the SU family, and there were usually few people there.
han yu thanked her and went to the small courtyard. shi yan had just stepped forward when jiang yun called her to the side.
shi yan didn’t beat around the bush and went straight to the point.”Second young miss Jiang, please speak your mind.”
Although Han Yu had said that Jiang Che’s conversation with her three brothers had ended, she was still a little worried and wanted to go over and take a look.
She didn’t know her three brothers a hundred percent, but she knew them pretty well.
With their personalities, even if they wanted to talk to Jiang che alone, they wouldn’t pick a noisy banquet. They couldn’t even wait to find a quiet place and directly went to the banquet’s resting area.
If she had found out about this ten minutes ago, she would have thought that they had urgently called Jiang che over because she had agreed to his proposal. Now, it seemed that they had not called Jiang che over just for this.
Perhaps they had also heard of the rumors of a marriage alliance that had suddenly spread in the capital.
Jiang Yun looked around carefully. After making sure that Jiang Rui and the others were far away and there was no one else around, she said in a low voice, ” ” i didn’t come to haicheng to attend young master su’s engagement party. i came to look for you. ”
Shi Yan raised her eyebrows.
I attended a dinner party yesterday and heard some rumors there. I was so angry that I almost made a scene at the dinner party. Fortunately, I still had some rationality left. Otherwise, the project that I had worked so hard to get would have been ruined.
“We’re getting off topic, let’s talk about serious matters. I actually heard someone say that my fifth uncle is going to marry the young miss of the Xie family! good fellow, i didn’t even know when a young lady appeared in the xie family, and she still wanted to hit on my fifth uncle!”
“i don’t know if this is true or false, and i don’t know where it came from, but there’s no smoke without fire. with fifth uncle’s identity, not everyone would dare to gossip about him. I immediately felt that this matter wasn’t as simple as it seemed. I wanted to call you and fifth uncle to tell them directly, but after thinking about it, I decided to come to Haicheng and tell them in person.”
Jiang Yun grinned at Shi Yan as she spoke.”i’m not afraid of you laughing at me, but i just want to show my face in front of fifth uncle. i’ve admired fifth uncle since i was young. do you understand the mentality of trying to curry favor in front of my idol so that he will remember me?”
He looked into Shi Yan’s eyes, which were smiling indifferently.
“Alright, you probably don’t understand.”
“in any case, you and fifth uncle should know about this. it’s not enough for us to know that those rumors are false. we have to let everyone know, or else when you and fifth uncle show up in the capital in the future, who knows what will come out.”
“this is not good for you.”
