Chapter 327 - My Small Trick Wouldn"t Be Able To Compete With Your Meticulous Planning Over The Year


Jiang Ruolan placed her luggage bag on the floor and walked towards him.


Zhan Lian looked solemnly at Xian Zihao, but his expression remained unchanged, even with Jiang Ruolan"s presence next to him. He lightly curled his lips and said, "Is there something Aunt wants?"


Zhan Lian narrowed her phoenix-like eyes and smiled. "Zihao, are you really not going to give a face to your aunt this time? What are you trying to do? Are you willing to lose everything and break our family"s relationship for Jiang Ruolan"s sake? There are many women in this world who are more beautiful and smarter than her. What is so good about her?"


She paused, then continued, "Aunt knows that no matter what I say now, you will not change your decision. Well, why don"t we discuss the conditions? Tell aunt what you want, for you to let Bingqing go?"


Jiang Ruolan thought she should not be here. She hesitated for a moment and turned to leave. Xian Zihao immediately grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace.


Zhan Lian looked at Jiang Ruolan with an expressionless face before she shifted her gaze to Xian Zihao and asked, "What exactly do you want?"


"Return the entire wealth of the Jiang Family to Ruolan and Bingqing sincerely apologizes to her on her (Bingqing) own initiative. As long as Ruolan is satisfied with it, I will consider Bingqing"s execution." Xian Zihao smiled, and his arm wrapped around Jiang Ruolan"s waist tightly. The meaning behind his words was very clear. He wouldn"t let go of this matter easily.


Zhan Lian was shocked and angry at the same time. "You"re trying to force our family into a corner!"


Xian Zihao"s lips curved up in a smile as he retorted, "My small trick wouldn"t be able to compete with your meticulous planning over the years, aunt."


For some reason, Xian Zihao"s casual words made Zhan Lian speechless. She was at a loss for words, unable to retort. She could only look at him in astonishment as she watched both of them walk down the stairs.


Jiang Ruolan had been in a trance until she got inside the car. As soon as Xian Zihao started the car, his phone suddenly rang. He picked up and listened to other"s party words. It was unknown who had spoken on the other end of the line and what he had been saying, but she noticed Xian Zihao"s grip on the steering wheel had tightened.


His face, hidden under the yellow street light, did not waver. After a while, he took the file in the glove compartment. After seeing it, he put it back in the box and said, "I"ll go there tomorrow."

It had been three or four days since they returned to Greenville Residence, and Sister Yanmei was also brought back to Greenville Residence.


Since Jiang Ruolan had not seen Xiong Ruogang for a long time, she decided to meet her. Xiong Ruogang knew that Jiang Ruolan had returned to H City, so she gladly invited her to go shopping. Since Jiang Ruolan had nothing to do at home, she arranged to meet Xiong Ruogang on Beidou Avenue.


It was a good day today and the weather was not too cold. Jiang Ruolan only wore a thin and loose dress. As she waited for Xiong Ruogang, she directly stood at the side of the street and looked at some of the peddlers.


As Jiang Ruolan lowered her head to fiddle with something, she suddenly noticed someone"s gaze on her. She looked up and looked around, but she didn"t see anyone suspicious.


Right when she sat down and ordered a gla.s.s of lemonade, her eyes were suddenly covered by someone.


"Guess who I am ~"


Jiang Ruolan"s mouth twitched. She pulled down those soft and smooth hands. "Brat, your hands are always covered in Orchid Fragrance"s hand cream. Do you think I can"t smell it?"


Xiong Ruogang pursed her lips and sat down beside her. "I thought you had forgotten me after not returning to H City for so long. I don"t think you will remember the smell of Orchid Fragrance in my hand."


Jiang Ruolan was very happy to see Xiong Ruogang. She called the waiter and ordered a gla.s.s of strawberry juice for her.


"Sis Jiang, when are you coming back? Did President Xian bring you back? He came to see you himself?" After sitting down, Xiong Ruogang kept asking. "Did he apologize to you? After all, Sis Jiang, that day, on your wedding, you really scared me. I"m afraid you won"t come back after you run away."


"I also thought I will never come back." Jiang Ruolan chuckled, "But the facts always go beyond what we see on the surface. Although it"s hard to get rid of them, I don"t want to miss them all. A misunderstanding can be explained, and hearts can be comforted. I decided to follow my heart, so I"m back."


Xiong Ruogang chuckled while sipping her strawberry juice. "Oh right, Sis Jiang, I just saw someone on the street just now."


"Who is it?"


"The handsome man who suddenly appeared at your and President Xian"s wedding. He looks like President Xian! He looks like a handsome prince in the Anime! Do you know who he is? I saw him just now while getting off the taxi."


Jiang Ruolan"s hand on the gla.s.s paused. "Did you see Yijun?"


"His name is Yijun?" Xiong Ruogang"s eyes lit up. She immediately asked with interest, "Is he Xian Family"s relative?"


Jiang Ruolan did not answer her question. She felt suspicious. Why did Jiang Yijun come here?


Just a moment ago, she felt someone"s gaze on her. It shouldn"t be him, right?


Now that she had thought about it, it was impossible. It was unlikely that Jiang Yijun would be here and if that was him, why did he come to Beidou Avenue alone? He always hated going to places that were too lively. Jiang Yijun was a quiet person and rarely went out shopping.


"Where did you see him?" Jiang Ruolan asked quickly.


Seeing her serious facial expression, Xiong Ruogang was stunned for a moment. Then, she raised her hand and pointed in the opposite direction. "There. In front of the Jade Town Hall. He"s outside the hall, and it looks like he"s waiting for someone."


Waiting for who?


Jiang Yijun rarely came to H City before, so what could he wait for?


Jiang Ruolan didn"t know why she was so worried, but it was clear that she couldn"t be involved in this matter. Everyone had their own privacy, but at the moment, she felt there was something wrong. Jiang Ruolan couldn"t stop herself from looking towards Jade Town Hall.


"Sis Jiang, are you okay?" Xiong Ruogang looked confused.


Jiang Ruolan pondered for a moment before calming herself down. She smiled at Xiong Ruogang. "I"m fine. Yijun is Xian Zihao"s younger brother."


"What? Didn"t President Xian say he doesn"t have a brother?"


Jiang Ruolan didn"t know how to explain it. She took her phone and thought for a moment. Then she called Jiang Yijun. The phone rang a few times before he picked it up and before he could say anything, Jiang Ruolan asked directly, "Where are you?"


Jiang Yijun remained quiet. Then, he said lightly. "Is something the matter?"


This unfamiliar tone made Jiang Ruolan very angry, but she knew it was because of her that Jiang Yijun had such an att.i.tude, so she could only bear it. She looked outside the window at the hall. "Yijun, have you been alright in Xian Residence? How did grandpa treat you?"


"I still have things to do. If you have nothing else, then I"ll hang up first." Xiuli"s tone was very indifferent and without waiting for Jiang Ruolan to protest, he hung up the phone.


Jiang Ruolan was stunned as she looked at the dark screen. Her eyebrows gradually knitted.


It wasn"t because she thought too much, but after Jiang Yijun came to Xian Residence, he seemed to have changed. While it was a good thing that he became more stable, he also became quieter, as if Jiang Yijun, who grew up with her, had turned into someone else. It was as if they were separated from each other by this new world. Although Jiang Ruolan had previously said that they should keep their distance, however, deeply in her heart, she knew that this was not something that she wanted.


Jiang Ruolan then remembered about Jiang Yijun"s mother. Just how much did he know about it?


Her heart felt heavy. She hoped that her worries were unnecessary. She hoped that she was just worried and confused.


"Sis Jiang, is your baby healthy?" Seeing that something was playing on Jiang Ruolan"s mind, Xiong Ruogang wisely changed the topic.


Jiang Ruolan looked at her and smiled. She then rubbed her stomach gently. Her eyes were full of antic.i.p.ation and love when she said, "At first, I had an unstable body, but now, I am fine."


"Hehe, Sis Jiang, you are indeed fortunate. I"m so envious of you!"


Jiang Ruolan just smiled. However, when she thought about how Xian Zihao would leave her for a long-term business trip tomorrow, she felt empty.


They had separated before, but the feeling was different. Now that she suddenly thought that he would leave tomorrow, she could not help but be anxious.


Jiang Ruolan suddenly wanted to come back as soon as possible.
