Chapter 562
562 Yanyun banquet invitation
As Shi Yan had expected, Xuan Siyun’s life in the next few days was indeed very colorful.
After meeting Shi Yan and returning home, Xuan Siyun immediately sent someone to investigate Shi Yan carefully, mainly her family background. In addition to her anger, her uneasiness also became more and more intense, and an incredible guess emerged in her heart.
young miss, this is what you wanted. Our people have been investigating for two days, and this is all we can find. It’s the same as what we’ve found in the past.
the assistant handed over a stack of documents with her head lowered the whole time, afraid of being affected by xuan siyun’s anger.
Xuan Siyun took it and flipped through it quickly. She had seen similar content too many times, but none of it was useful! He directly threw a large stack of information on the ground.
“i spent so much money to raise a bunch of trash? they couldn’t find any useful information! Let them continue to investigate! if you still can’t find anything, then get out of here!”
the assistant was so scared that he didn’t even dare to breathe.
Xuan Siyun’s temper was bad, but she was a well-mannered person. In the past, she rarely revealed her emotions in front of her subordinates, but these two days, she had been acting abnormally. Everyone kept quiet out of fear and didn’t dare to speak carelessly, afraid of provoking her.
However, the matter had to be resolved, or else their days would be even worse. Hence, the assistant braced himself and said, ” “m-miss, i heard some of your conversation with miss shi from outside the door.”
He tried to see Xuan Siyun’s expression, and seeing that she wasn’t angry because he had spoken privately, the assistant sighed and continued, ” “That miss Shi, since she said that it was her idea for her and the fifth master Jiang to return to the capital this time, and also mentioned that they were a match of equal social status, I’m afraid that the information we’ve found about her is not accurate.”
“Putting aside the fact that the fifth Lord Jiang is born in the Jiang family, he himself is not a match for ordinary people. There are very few people who can say ‘a match of equal social status’ in front of the fifth Lord Jiang.”
xuan siyun glared at him angrily.”What do you want to say?”
she didn’t know if this anger was directed at the assistant or at what the assistant was about to say.
“There are only a few families in the capital that can be described as a match for fifth master Jiang, and this miss Shi’s surname is Shi Wanwan.”
“Miss, this miss Shi is about the same age as the Miss of the Shi family who hasn’t shown her face for many years. the shi family is very protective of them, so it’s not convenient for us to investigate if there are too many of them. however, it’s not too difficult for us to investigate just one name.”
Xuan Siyun’s subordinates had wanted to say this for a long time, but they thought that if they could think of it, Xuan Siyun would also think of it. She hadn’t told them to investigate in this direction, so they didn’t dare to say it.
Xuan Siyun’s face turned ugly. She kicked the chair beside her hard, causing it to flip over. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.”get someone to investigate!”
y-young miss, here’s an invitation from Yanyun Manor. Yanyun Manor is hosting a banquet on Saturday, and they’ve invited you.
No matter how angry she was, when she heard the words “Yanyun Manor,” Xuan Siyun pulled back most of her attention. She looked at the exquisite invitation card that the assistant handed over and was a little surprised.”yanyun manor? The Yanyun Manor, the only Manor in the capital that is comparable to the fifth Lord’s private Manor, and the owner of the manor is a mystery?”
“yes, young miss.”
xuan siyun frowned slightly and opened the exquisitely-made pure black invitation.
The banquet was personally organized by the owner of Yanyun Manor, and it was held in the manor.
Speaking of Yanyun Manor, she had also sent people to investigate it. After all, Yanyun Manor was not just a large Manor, but it also had a very different ” business.
When the competition for the heir was at its fiercest, she had also done a few business deals with Yanyun in private. These deals were crucial for her to win the position of the heir of the Xuan family, and Yanyun’s strength was evident.
It was impossible for her not to be wary of such a mysterious and powerful existence.
with fear, he naturally had to investigate, but unfortunately, he couldn’t find anything and was even secretly warned by yanyun. Yanyun had other people’s secrets, so she naturally had hers. She didn’t dare to investigate rashly anymore, so until now, she still didn’t know who was behind Yanyun.
He didn’t know why such a mysterious Yanyun would suddenly hold a banquet.
no matter what the purpose was, anyone who could receive an invitation to yanyun’s banquet was not an ordinary person. she had no reason not to go.
after staring at the invitation for a moment, xuan siyun narrowed her eyes and said, ” ” clear out my schedule for the day after tomorrow. also, prepare a generous gift. after all, this is my first time visiting you. ”
Yanyun’s presence in the capital wasn’t strong, but those who knew of Yanyun’s existence were all afraid of it. She was like this, and she believed that everyone else was the same.
if she could be on good terms with yanyun’s master, even if shi yan really had some relationship with the shi family, she would not be completely powerless.
Shi Yan didn’t care how lively Xuan Siyun’s side was.
She had been busy preparing for the banquet for the past two days.
she only had some free time after she handed out the invitations.
In the study, Jiang che poured her a glass of water and brought it in.
“you’re tired, right? rest for a while before you get busy.”
he handed her the water. shi yan took it with a smile and drank more than half of the glass in one gulp. jiang che walked behind her and massaged her shoulders to relax her.
shi yan enjoyed the massage for a while before patting the back of his hand to signal him to stop.
Jiang Che’s hand was on her shoulder while Shi Yan’s hand was on the back of his. She looked up at him and smiled. I’m already done. I’ll leave the rest to the others. You, on the other hand, haven’t had a good rest these past two days.
“i didn’t do anything. why didn’t i rest well?” Jiang che chuckled. miss Shi is too capable. I don’t have much use for her.
Shi Yan had not told Jiang che about her plans in detail, and Jiang che had not asked. However, how could he not have guessed who the fifth Lord Jiang was? However, since Shi Yan had a plan, he just let her do it and didn’t interfere.
he didn’t interfere or ask. the only thing he did was to accompany shi yan.
As for whether there would be any loopholes in Shi Yan’s arrangement, to be honest, he was not worried. In a place like the capital, Jiang che could still protect someone. Even if something really happened in the end, he would be able to cover for it.
you said that you were busy these two days and couldn’t see any guests, so I had people stop all the visitors, including your parents.
Shi Yan knew that this had happened yesterday.
She had a fever once and everyone was worried, so they came to visit her. When they came over, Jiang Lin had asked her if she wanted to see them. She hesitated for a moment and said that she would not see them for the time being. She also asked Jiang Lin to tell them that she was fine now, but she had something to do. She would return to the Shi family to see them in two days.
She was indirectly telling them that she was going back to the Shi family.
Su Wan and Shi Lin were both very excited when they heard the news. They no longer insisted on seeing Shi Yan. They told Jiang Lin to ask him to help take care of Shi Yan and rushed back to make preparations.
As for Shi Yan not wanting to see them for the time being, it actually had nothing to do with whether Shi Yan was busy or not. She just didn’t know how to face them for the time being.
after all, the capital was different from haicheng. the capital was a special place for her and her family. all the things that happened in the past happened here, and now that they had suddenly returned, her mood was a little different.
In her heart, she wasn’t as carefree as she appeared to be.
