564 She and miss Shi
ever since the two of them returned to the capital, they had been watched by countless pairs of eyes. however, the two of them had closed their doors and refused to meet any guests. they could not see anyone come to their door and could only watch the main gate of jiang che’s manor as they left.
therefore, when they went out, they alerted a lot of people. they didn’t deliberately hide their whereabouts, so it was easy for people to discover them.
there were many people following him, but not many dared to go up and disturb him.
As for those who dared to go up and disturb them, seeing the harmonious and warm atmosphere between the two, they also reduced their thoughts of going up to disturb them.
For example, the younger generation of the Jiang family like Jiang Yu, the Shi brothers who were worried about Shi Yan’s health, and Xie Heng of the Xie family.
Shi Yan and Jiang che sat on the first floor, while Xie Heng sat on the second floor.
he could clearly see the two of them when he lowered his head.
xie heng was different from the others. he had arrived here before the two of them.
however, he knew where the two of them were going and had probably guessed that they would come here.
He wanted to see Shi Yan out of his own selfishness, but also because of other matters.
a few days had passed, and he had investigated almost everything he wanted to. he already understood the ins and outs of the matter. It wasn’t that he didn’t think of calling the second branch’s cousins over for questioning, but these two people might have known that he was looking for them and were deliberately hiding, so he couldn’t find them for the time being.
However, Xie Heng was not in a hurry. They could not hide for a few days. if she wanted to continue staying in the xie family, it was not a wise move to hide from him. Xie xingran might not understand, but Xie Xingchen would.
The news that he was looking for them had already spread. Even if he didn’t look for them, they would take the initiative to look for him.
he just had to wait.
on the other hand, shi yan was in a hurry.
He had heard that Shi Yan had fallen ill as soon as he returned to the capital. Putting aside his feelings for Shi Yan, he could roughly guess the reason why Shi Yan, who didn’t look like a person who often fell ill, had fallen ill as soon as she returned.
After all, he was the one who had caused the current situation. He had a certain responsibility, so it was understandable that he would be worried about her.
The first person to block Shi Yan and Jiang Che’s path was not Xie Heng.
seeing that the two of them were leaving, he got up and was about to go downstairs when someone stopped him on the stairs.
he was a person that no one had expected.
Xuan Jinrui of the Xuan family.
He was sitting in a wheelchair and was being pushed by someone. He looked sick.
“Fifth Lord Jiang, miss Shi Yan,”
Shi Yan showed that she was a little tipsy because Jiang che was the only one beside her. She was actually very sober. When she saw an unfamiliar person, she was in the same state as Jiang che when she first met him, sitting in a wheelchair. She suppressed her drunkenness with a light push.
His eyes were clear and he didn’t look drunk at all.
usually, jiang che would handle people she was not familiar with. however, this person was xuan jinrui, so she could not help but pay more attention to him.
Of course, she had never seen Xuan Jinrui before, but she had scanned through the detailed information of all the families in the capital city that Amy had given her, and she had seen Xuan Jinrui’s photo.
Xuan Jinrui’s eyes and brows were similar to Jiang Rui’s.
Of course, she didn’t care about the Xuan family. She was more concerned about the people related to Jiang Rui.
amy had done a detailed investigation. she now had a better understanding of the xuan family. with the help of the fifth lord, xuan jinrui and xuan siyun could be said to be on par, even if he was ill and not suitable to be the heir.
According to Shi Yan’s understanding, Xuan Jinrui had come into contact with Xuan Liuying more than once.
Of course, he could not set his sights on Xuan Liuying. With her age and experience, she was even less suitable to be the heir of the Xuan family.
it was hard to guarantee that xuan jinrui’s contact with xuan liuying was not for the sake of jiang rui.
Even if she wasn’t, he had been in contact with Xuan Liuying so many times that Xuan Siyun might not think so.
xuan siyun would never show mercy to her enemies. if she suspected xuan jinrui’s motives and felt that jiang rui was a threat, she might harm jiang rui.
this was not what shi yan wanted to see.
jiang rui was her first friend. she didn’t like to meddle in other people’s business, but she felt that she was a protective person.
Since she had met Xuan Jinrui, she had to be more careful.
jiang che supported shi yan and nodded at xuan jinrui as a response. he supported shi yan and was about to leave. he had no intention of staying behind to chat with xuan jinrui. after all, they did not have much of a relationship.
xuan jinrui did not seem to want to let them go so easily. ” “please wait!”
It was exactly what Shi Yan wanted.
jiang che’s eyes didn’t move and only glanced at xuan jinrui indifferently. however, shi yan could sense that jiang che was already a little unhappy and squeezed his hand.
Jiang che looked at her and suppressed his displeasure.
“is there anything i can help you with?” shi yan asked xuan jinrui with a smile.
Xuan Jinrui covered his mouth and coughed twice. He looked really weak.”It’s nothing much, I just saw the two of you here, so I came over to say hello.”
he didn’t mention that jiang che had helped him. instead, he looked at shi yan in a friendly manner. when I went to Haicheng to see Rui ‘er, I heard from her that miss Shi Yan is her best friend. I also found out some things from Rui’ er and knew that miss Shi Yan has helped Rui ‘er a lot. I’ve always wanted to see you to express my gratitude.
Seeing Shi Yan looking at him, Xuan Jinrui said, ” miss Shi Yan should know that I’m Rui ‘er’s cousin. All these years, she and my aunt have urged me to do nothing for them. I’m very ashamed.
shi yan didn’t know how to respond to this.
he didn’t show anything, nor did he show any signs of causing trouble for jiang rui. as an outsider, it wasn’t appropriate for her to interrupt.
she had no choice but to wait for him to continue.
“I went to Sea city to see Rui ‘er and aunt a few times. It was my grandfather’s wish to see them. My grandfather really wanted to see aunt and Rui ‘er and asked me to go find them, but …”
xuan jinrui smiled bitterly. ” miss shi yan should have heard about what happened to our family. aunt and rui ‘er don’t want to come back. i thought that you have a good relationship with rui’ er. if possible, i would like you to help me persuade rui ‘er. ” I just hope that she and aunt can come to see grandfather.”
if he wanted to see her, why didn’t he personally go and see her? who had more face than who?
of course, shi yan would not say that.
He smiled. I will pass on young master Xuan’s words, but I can’t guarantee that Rui ‘er will listen. Of course, Rui’ er is my friend. If she doesn’t want to see me, I won’t persuade her.
Xuan Jinrui did not expect her to reject him so directly, so he was stunned.
He was clearly a person who was easy to talk to.
When he realized who the person holding Shi Yan in his arms was, Xuan Jinrui felt that Shi Yan should be someone with such a temper.
She couldn’t subdue this man without a temper.
“It’s good that you can help me pass on the message. Thank you, miss Shi Yan.”
“then i won’t waste your time. take care.” he gestured to the people behind him to push the wheelchair away and make way.
Shi Yan glanced at Xuan Jinrui indifferently.
He glanced around and saw that not many of the people who were observing them in the dark had not noticed Xuan Jinrui.
Was Xuan Jinrui really just here to say hello?
xuan siyun, who was also sitting on the second floor, saw this scene and stared at xuan jinrui with an even colder gaze.
As expected of her biggest rival. After Xuan Jinrui’s incident, the capital would be filled with rumors of his close relationship with the Jiang family’s fifth Lord! When grandfather heard about it, Xuan Jinrui would have an even greater advantage!
it seemed that she had to speed up the process of building a good relationship with the master behind yanyun!
this was the most important matter at the moment, so she would put shi yan aside for the time being. it was not appropriate for her to cause any more trouble, especially now that she was not sure if shi yan had any relationship with the shi family.
she didn’t know where xie xingran from the xie family had run off to. she was still waiting to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
xie xingran did not see it, but xuan siyun saw xie heng.
He walked straight towards Shi Yan and Jiang che, but he greeted Shi Yan first.
She couldn’t hear what he had called Shi Yan from a distance, but she could see that Shi Yan wasn’t a simple person from the way Xie Heng greeted her in the presence of the fifth Lord!
the head of the xie family was the only one among the young people who could compare to the fifth lord jiang! he was of equal status even when facing the fifth lord jiang!
he felt more and more uneasy.
She had heard rumors that a few years ago, the Shi family and the Xie family had the intention of a marriage alliance, and the marriage partner was Xie Heng and the young lady of the Shi family! although she didn’t know if the rumor was true or false, there was no smoke without fire, so there wouldn’t be such a rumor for no reason.
say … maybe it’s the real yingluo.
if it was true, combined with xie heng’s attitude towards shi yan, the possibility of shi yan being the miss of the shi family was even greater!
