Chapter 363
363 He circled around her
Before su Wan could think further, qu Xuan said in surprise, ” “y-you’re the fifth master of the jiang family!”
it was no wonder that qu xuan could guess jiang che’s identity first. the rumor that the fifth lord of the jiang family lived in haicheng and had found a girlfriend there had been spreading like wildfire in the capital.
When she heard the madams she was familiar with talk about her, she even sighed about what kind of country girl she was to be able to pull down an immortal figure like the fifth Lord from the altar.
wasn’t the fifth lord jiang an immortal?
After all, not everyone could get the reputation of “a gentleman like jade, gentle and kind.”
hearing qu xuan’s exclamation, su wan also came to her senses.
The younger generation of the Jiang family was not the only one in their twenties. There was also a person in his twenties in the previous generation of the Jiang family! He was the one who had taken control of the Jiang family at the age of sixteen!
he was the most outstanding person among the younger generation of the various families in the capital!
In the capital, only the current head of the Xie clan could barely match him.
“fifth lord jiang?” su wan looked at jiang che, stunned.
Jiang che was still calm and composed, his handsome face unruffled and gentle as ever. “Auntie is too serious. That’s just a form of address given by outsiders. You’re an elder, so you can just call me by my name.”
it really was the jiang family’s fifth master, lao ai.
su wan and qu xuan looked at each other, clearly seeing the uneasiness in each other’s eyes.
Then, he sighed.
these elders thought that they had found a good home for yanyan, but they did not know that even without the shi family, yanyan could find a person who was not inferior to the person they had high hopes for.
The two of them still had a Foundation of feelings.
But calling his name?
not to mention qu xuan, su wan couldn’t even call him that.
Even the old master of the family had to politely call the young master of the Jiang family ” fifth Lord Jiang ” when he saw him. They couldn’t call him by his name directly.
the jiang clan’s fifth master was a gentle immortal figure, but no one would think that he had a good temper.
He was really ruthless when he wanted to.
there was no one in the capital who had not heard of the fifth master of the jiang family, jiang zuo, having his legs crippled in front of all the members of the jiang family three years ago.
In addition, the fifth Lord Jiang had recently returned to the capital, and in just two days, he had caused a lot of trouble. Everyone was in a state of panic and danger.
“jiang changying, so you are a child of the jiang family.”
It was no secret in the capital that the fifth master of the Jiang family was at odds with his family.
Su Wan regretted mentioning his elder and even said that she might know him.
of course, she knew them. the circle was only so big, and they would always have the opportunity to meet. however, she was not familiar with the jiang family’s grandfather and grandmother.
According to the seniority in the circle, she was a generation younger than the Jiang family’s old master and old Madam. Her in-laws had more contact with the Jiang family’s old master and old Madam.
As they spoke, the dishes were served.
during the entire meal, jiang che was helping shi yan with his food. shi yan would occasionally help jiang che with his food too. the two of them did not use the same chopsticks to help each other.
this was a very intimate action.
However, they did it very naturally and did not seem to be deliberate at all.
It wasn’t hard to see that they were used to doing such things.
su wan was pleased, but she couldn’t help but feel bitter.
in the past nine years, she had really missed out on her daughter’s growth. even if she wanted to make up for it, her daughter didn’t seem to need it.
Her daughter had someone by her side, and she was almost at the marriageable age.
When his daughter got married, she would really belong to another family.
suppressing the bitterness in her heart, su wan asked, ” “how did you and yanyan meet?”
She was asking Jiang che, but Shi Yan answered, ” ” i came to haicheng and accepted grandma jiang’s invitation to stay at the jiang family’s house in haicheng. i met someone i knew in the courtyard of the jiang family’s old house in haicheng. ”
didn’t that mean they hadn’t known each other for long?
That was what su Wan and qu Xuan were thinking at the same time.
However, they didn’t say this out loud.
speaking of the Jiang family in Haicheng, I’ve heard that you’ve been taken care of by them since you came to Haicheng. I’ll find a time to pay a visit to the old lady of the Jiang family.
Shi Yan didn’t refuse. She just said, ” there’s no hurry. Aunt, cousin, second brother, and Bo Chen visited the Jiang family not long ago.
Su Wan was ashamed and reproached herself.
He felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
she was yanyan’s mother. when others took care of yanyan, she didn’t even thank them.
However, she didn’t expect Shi Yan to always see her crying face. She forced a smile and said,”then, then i’ll go visit again after a while.”
after calming down, su wanchi asked jiang che, ” “you … will you return to the capital in the future?”
He hesitated because he knew about the conflict between Jiang che and the Jiang family. He knew that it was inappropriate to mention returning to the capital to Jiang che.
but su wan couldn’t help it. she had asked for a divorce when she was agitated, but when she calmed down, she knew that it was unrealistic.
she could not bear to part with her husband, and she still had two sons in the shi family.
It was fine to leave the capital for a short period of time and live elsewhere, but she couldn’t stay away forever.
her two sons were not young anymore. she had already let her daughter down and could not leave her sons alone. although she wouldn’t take the initiative to help them arrange their marriage, if they had the intention to get married, as a mother, she would go back and help with the wedding.
When she had a grandson, she might need to help take care of him.
she really hoped that shi yan could return to the capital. even if she didn’t return to the shi family, it would be good if they could live in the same city.
” that depends on yanyan. i’ll be with her wherever she is. if she wants to live in the capital, i’ll go with her. ”
Jiang che said this while looking at Shi Yan.
Shi Yan also looked at him.
He continued,”aunty, you must have heard that not long ago, I was a person who only left the house a few times a year. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that I never left the house.” If I didn’t meet Yanyan, I think I would probably spend the rest of my life like this.”
“you can say that from the moment i met yanyan, my life revolved around her. with her as the center, i’ll be wherever she is.”
in fact, shi yan had already understood this.
however, knowing it in her heart was one thing, and hearing him say it out loud was another.
it was hard not to be touched.
Wasn’t she the same?
before she met him, she also lived aimlessly. she didn’t want to live an exciting life and planned to live a peaceful life step by step until the day she died.
It was a simple exchange of glances. Even if Shi Yan did not say anything, Jiang che could understand what she wanted to express.
once again, he held her hand tightly under the table.
jiang che’s answer surprised everyone present, including shi boxiang.
then, he felt that there was nothing strange about it.
The main thing was that before the news of him having a girlfriend spread, Jiang che almost never went out and met with guests.
in their surprise, they all looked at shi yan.
since jiang che would be wherever she was, they were eager to know if shi yan would return to the capital.
“I still need a few years to finish my studies, so I probably won’t be returning to the capital in the short term.” Shi Yan said.
In the past, she had never thought of returning to the capital. However, after meeting Jiang che and guessing his identity, she knew that she would return to the capital One day.
Not for anything else, but to stand up for Jiang che in front of the Jiang family one day.
su wan was so excited that her eyes turned red. she said hurriedly, ” ” no rush, no rush. studies are more important. ”
