Chapter 571
571 Calm and intimidating
“Let’s see what kind of rotten idea you have! this was great, old fifth would not be kind! He had abandoned so many rich and famous ladies with strong family backgrounds, and she didn’t know what kind of magic potion that country girl had fed him! What’s wrong with marrying the young lady of the Xie family? Her character, appearance, and family background are all more compatible with him than that country girl, yet he still wants to treat that country girl as a treasure!”
jiang xun looked up at her.
This glance was a little hard to explain.
to this day, she still didn’t know shi yan’s background and still felt that shi yan was just a country girl with no background. she was really stupid. In the entire Jiang family, she was probably the only one who thought that Shi Yan had no background.
It was a miracle that he could give birth to a son like his fifth brother.
it wasn’t that bai xue didn’t have her suspicions about shi yan’s identity. she had long suspected that shi yan had something to do with the shi family. Even without the Shi family, the fact that Shi Yan had forced Jiang Zhi to make her film a video of her apology was enough to prove that she was not a simple person.
She had always labeled Shi Yan as a ” country girl ” only because she felt deeply humiliated by filming that video and was unwilling to think positively of Shi Yan.
In her opinion, no one was more worthy of Jiang che than Shi Yan.
Jiang Qian had wanted to remind her of Shi Yan’s identity, but seeing her stupid look, he dispelled the idea.
The last time he visited the Shi family, he could tell that the Shi family did not like him. If white snow found out that Shi Yan was most likely the eldest daughter of the Shi family, who never showed her face, he did not know what kind of trouble she would cause. He did not want to see her angering the Shi family.
that’s right, jiang qi had never felt that xie xingran was a better match for jiang che than shi yan. It was true that Xie xingran was the only young lady of the Xie family, but she was only adopted by the second branch of the Xie family. She was not on the same level as Shi Yan, the only daughter of the legitimate head of the Shi family.
He had created such a rumor about his marriage with the Xie family only because he felt that Jiang che and Shi Yan did not take him seriously. He wanted to make them unhappy and force Jiang che back at the same time.
Thinking that he had achieved his goal, Jiang Yao couldn’t be bothered to argue with white snow about how disrespectful she was to him.
“if you don’t want fifth brother to not even let you, his biological mother off, then stop it and don’t mention that girl with the surname shi in front of him! haven’t the bai and yun families learned their lesson?”
These words hit the nail on the head.
white snow immediately stopped.
she stopped pacing around and sat back on the sofa.
recently, the matter between the bai and yun families had given her a headache.
both families knew that they had been implicated by her, so she had avoided them and did not dare to see them. she wanted to plead with jiang che, but she didn’t even dare to call him.
For a moment, white snow wanted to avoid seeing Jiang che, but she thought that it would be too embarrassing, so she forced herself to stay.
she wasn’t the only one who wanted to hide, jiang yi also wanted to hide.
the moment jiang che stepped through the door, the two of them subconsciously sat up straight, showing off their cowardice and love to cause trouble to the fullest.
“Lao, Lao Wu is back?” White snow forced a smile and staggered a little when she stood up. If it wasn’t for the walking stick in her hand, she wouldn’t have been able to stand steadily.
He didn’t know if it was because he was old or because he was scared.
jiang che’s calm gaze fell on her, and white snow immediately tensed up. fortunately, jiang che’s gaze quickly shifted away from her. otherwise, she would not have been able to hold on.
Jiang che only glanced at her briefly before turning his gaze to Jiang Qi. “Father, do you think that the Jiang family is not declining fast enough?”
he had a warm temperament and a gentle and calm tone, but the words he said made people’s hearts tremble.
it wasn’t just jiang yan and bai xue. the people who came in with jiang che also changed their expressions. only jiang yu raised his eyebrows and smiled.
these people were in awe of fifth uncle’s treatment.
Did he really think that fifth uncle had no one to rely on without the Jiang family? What was she thinking?
“Xuanji old fifth, you haven’t been home for three years. Now that you’re back, it’s not right for you to condemn me!” Jiang Yao’s face turned red and then white, and after holding it in for a long time, she finally managed to squeeze out this sentence.
He felt that Jiang Che’s rudeness in front of so many people made him lose face, so he tried to regain some dignity.
looking over, jiang che said,”father, are you lecturing me?.”
jiang qian’s heart tightened.
“if you want to say next time, i’m not here to listen to my father’s lecture.”
as he spoke, jiang lin brought a chair over from somewhere. ” “Fifth Lord, please sit.”
jiang che sat down.
This scene was inexplicably familiar.
It reminded him of three years ago, when he came back in a wheelchair and broke Kang Zuo’s legs in public. The difference was that three years ago, he was in a wheelchair and couldn’t walk with his legs. Now, his legs were intact and healthy.
The only thing that didn’t change was that he was as calm as ever.
he was the scariest when he was like this.
“i’ve put in a lot of effort into the jiang family, so i didn’t plan to do anything to them. It seems that I have to do something.”
jiang qian panicked,”fifth brother, it’s just a small matter, there’s no need for you to make a fuss ..”
“Father.” jiang che interrupted him.
I have a girlfriend. No, I mean, I’m fiancée now.
“i have a fiancée. stepping over me, stepping over my fiancée to secretly create rumors of me and the xie family’s marriage alliance, this is not a small matter in my opinion. when father planned to do this, he should have thought of the consequences. Or is it because I’ve been too quiet for the past three years that my father thinks my temper has improved?”
the light in his eyes was very faint and very frightening.
It made one’s heart turn cold.
“Yingluo, that girl, is the person you chose yourself, so how could I be unhappy with you over this kind of thing? I’m only doing this because I want you to come back.”
“why did you call me back? Take over the Jiang family and continue to be the head of the family? But father, didn’t you wish for me to give up the right to be in charge of the family three years ago?”
Jiang Che’s eyes seemed to be smiling.
it would have been fine if he didn’t smile, but once he did, the advantage of his peach-shaped eyes was revealed. He was different from the gentle and warm person they were familiar with. At this moment, he seemed to carry a bit of evil.
It was cold and demonic.
He was even more mysterious than his gentle self.
jiang zhi felt guilty,”i … when did i expect you to give up the power of the family?” you’re the heir that i’ve personally chosen, and i’ve personally handed the jiang family over to you. why would i expect you to give up the power of the family?”
“You’ll have to ask yourself that, father.”
Jiang Yao felt more and more guilty under his gaze.
there were some things that didn’t need to be said clearly. everyone actually knew it in their hearts.
it was true that jiang che was the heir he had chosen, and it was also true that he was very satisfied with jiang che as the heir. however, he was simply too satisfied. jiang che had done too well. everyone only knew fifth lord jiang but not him. jiang che was not easy to control, and this made him feel deeply uneasy. he wanted to change the head of the family to someone easier to control, so he acquiesced to his eldest son’s actions.
he had never thought that jiang che would lose his life under jiang zuo’s schemes. when jiang che almost died in the emergency room, he felt regretful.
however, this bit of regret gradually disappeared after jiang che was out of danger.
