Chapter 368
368 She’s just a Buddhist
“the boss of tian wang is the fifth lord jiang’s man.” tong yan said.
it was only when jiang zhong took the initiative to contact her to investigate the matter of su chen being held back by the original forces that she found out that the boss of heaven’s hope was the fifth lord jiang’s man.
Tang Fu looked out of the window. I’ve never been here before. I don’t know if there’s anything else in this Manor. It seems like this is Tianwang’s base camp. Tong Yan, have you been here before?”
tong yan shook his head.
She had only cooperated with Jiang Zhong these days, and hadn’t told him everything.
“then why didn’t they stop our car just now?”
When Tang Fu asked this question, even Wei chuge gave her a speechless look.
they quickly realized whose car they had come in with. since they had come in one after the other, why would tianwang stop them?
Tang Fu laughed awkwardly. “it’s been too long since i’ve used my brain. i’m a little silly now.”
“are we going to stay here tonight?”
“you stay here, i’ll leave with brother wei.” Tong Yan said.
“Although miss Yan trusts fifth Lord Jiang, everyone here is his man. I can’t be at ease if I don’t leave one of my own here. Even if you don’t want to do anything, you can stay here and help miss Yan with whatever she wants to do. At least, she will have someone to help her when she needs help.”
“That’s what I think,” Tang Fu agreed.
“But if I want to stay, will Tianwang allow me to?”
” if brother wei and i stay, they might have something to say. but if you stay, they won’t. ”
Looking at her through the rear mirror, Tong Yan said, ” “After all, you look weaker.”
tang fu’s mouth twitched. ” should i thank you for saying ‘it looks like’? ” she asked.
“that’s what i should do. do you want me to say that you’re really weak?”
” hehe. ” tang fu did not want to speak.
the car in front had already driven to the innermost part of the manor.
This was the center of power in Tianwang, where outsiders could hardly enter.
from the moment they entered the manor until now, shi yan had not shown the slightest curiosity, even though this place was very different from an ordinary manor.
She held onto Jiang Che’s arm the entire time, leaned on his shoulder, and played with his slender fingers with their fingers interlocked. It was as if she was more interested in Jiang Che’s hands than in the manor outside.
Jiang Zhong, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, looked over.
that’s right, jiang zhong personally drove to pick up jiang che.
It had been three years, and the fifth Lord was finally willing to meet him. Furthermore, he had come to Qingcheng in person. Of course, he had to go and welcome him!
the fifth lord had given him a task. even though it was to investigate su chen, who they didn’t have much contact with, he was still very excited when he received the call from the fifth lord.
for the past three years, jiang lin had been the middleman responsible for contacting them.
jiang lin, who was sitting in the passenger’s seat, saw jiang zhong, who was usually calm and quiet, rolling his eyes and trying to control his excitement. he suddenly felt a little sympathetic for jiang zhong.
In the past, Jiang Zhong was just like his name, a quiet, steady, honest man. Three years of being ignored by the fifth Lord had forced him into this state.
It was all Jiang RI’s fault!
Jiang Zhong cast a sidelong glance at Shi Yan because he felt that it was very rare for a little girl of her age to have no curiosity about the outside world.
these trusted aides all knew that the fifth lord had a very pampered girlfriend by his side. they also knew that she was not some orphan girl from the countryside, but the rumored pampered eldest miss of the shi family in the capital.
in the past, he had only thought that she was a pampered young lady from a prestigious family who was doted on by the entire family, unlike the eldest miss xuan who was the heir of the xuan family and had real power in her hands. after working with tong yan a few days ago, he had learned that miss shi yan was indeed different from miss xuan.
Her confidence came from her own efforts. Miss Xuan’s power was given by her family and inherited from her family.
miss shi yan is not even 20 years old yet.
It was said that she was very Buddhist and never cared about wealth and power. The business and power under her were all created by the people she had cultivated.
if miss shi yan had some ambition, wouldn’t she be as powerful as the fifth master and the head of the xie family?
Should he say that he was worthy of being someone that fifth Lord valued?
The car stopped and Jiang che got out of the car with Shi Yan.
There were two rows of people standing in front of the villa, about twenty people.
They should all be high-level figures in Tianwang.
as soon as they saw jiang che, they bowed thirty degrees in unison. ” “Fifth Lord!”
Jiang che held Shi Yan’s hand and walked straight in.
Jiang Zhong led the way.
“fifth lord, miss shi yan, the food is ready. do you plan to have your meal now or go back to your rooms to rest for a while?”
“shall we go eat first?” Jiang che turned to Shi Yan with a questioning look.
“I’m fine with anything.”
“Tang Fu and the others have followed us. Tong Yan and Wei chuge should be leaving, but Tang Fu should be staying. Ask your men to make the arrangements.”
shi yan had a general understanding of the people she had trained.
“this kind of small matter will be arranged by someone. you don’t need to worry.”
Jiang Lin did not follow them in. He just went to contact the person-in-charge here other than Jiang Zhong to arrange this matter. He did not even need Jiang che to specifically instruct him.
If Jiang Lin did not even have this much judgment and ability to do things, he would not be worthy of being by Jiang Che’s side.
Soon, they arrived at the restaurant.
The dishes weren’t complicated, just three dishes and a soup.
the dining table wasn’t the exaggerated kind. it was a small square table with two people sitting opposite each other.
sitting down to eat like this, even if it was a completely unfamiliar place, she would not feel uncomfortable. it was also very heartwarming.
it was obvious that jiang che had instructed him to do so in advance.
shi yan received a call from su wan just as she sat down and was about to eat.
“Mom.” Shi Yan answered the phone and shouted.
“Yanyan, are you asleep?”
Su Wan sounded a little nervous.
Shi Yan pursed her lips.
“no, i didn’t,”
” it’s friday today, so you probably don’t have any classes this weekend. i’ve had someone tidy up your room in the su family’s house and personally helped you redecorate it. do you want to come over tomorrow to take a look? ”
“I’m not in Haicheng. I’m in Qingcheng.”
” qingcheng?! ” su wan was shocked.
“Qingcheng is such a chaotic place. What are you doing there?”
Shi Yan was much calmer than su Wan. “I have something to deal with.”
“What’s the matter that you need to deal with in Qingcheng?”
Su Wan had wanted to ask this.
she hadn’t seen or contacted shi yan all these years, but shi yan had always been under the surveillance of the shi family. she knew that shi yan had not done anything all these years. she only had one source of income, which was the dividends from the ointment processing factory that she had cooperated with su chen.
over the years, shi yan had never stepped out of wu county, let alone qingcheng.
Shi Yan had nothing to do with a chaotic place like Qing Cheng.
“you went alone?”
“No, with Jiang che.”
“I’m here to deal with some things. Jiang che was worried about me coming alone, so he came with me. mom, don’t worry, i won’t be in any danger.”
With the rumored fifth Lord of the Jiang family by his side, his safety was indeed guaranteed.
but su wan was still worried.
but she couldn’t help much.
Su Wan made up her mind to call her husband and son as soon as she hung up the phone. She couldn’t help, but her husband and son could.
“when are you going back to haicheng?”
“I’m not sure at the moment. I’ll be back when I’m done. mom, i’ll talk to you later. i just got off the plane, i want to eat something.”
“okay, then you should go and eat.”
“Yanyan, be careful.”
“alright,” he said.
after hanging up the phone, shi yan took the chopsticks from jiang che and put some food into his bowl. she smiled and said, ” “let’s eat. you must be hungry.”
“have some soup to warm your stomach first,” jiang che said as he scooped some soup for her.
Shi Yan took it with a smile.
The meal ended in a heartwarming manner.
It was getting late, but Shi Yan did not dwell on su Chen’s matter. She took a bath and rested for the night, so that she could talk about it tomorrow.
