Chapter 237
She Is From The Countryside
237 He will protect me
su yunzhi nodded.
Iâm not sure about the others, but I think they were probably sent by their Masters. However, I know the one over there. Heâs the third master of the Yun family, Yun Hui.
Shi Yan followed her line of sight and saw a man in a suit and leather shoes holding a glass of wine and chatting with someone not far away.
He seemed to have seen Xuan Siyun. He was surprised and walked towards her.
Shi Yan retracted her gaze and smiled at su Yunzhi. aunty, I know what youâre worried about. Itâs okay. Jiang che and I know what weâre doing.
âof course i know that you all know this in your hearts. there are people in the capital who wish for fifth master jiang to return, and naturally there are also people who wish for him to never return.â
Su Yunzhiâs eyes were filled with worry.âYanyan, Iâm just afraid youâll get involved.â
âitâs fine, little aunt. the fact that fifth lord jiang is a formidable figure shows that he is strong enough. i believe that he can protect me.â Shi Yan said with a smile.
In fact, what she wanted to say was that she wasnât afraid of these people noticing her. She even wanted everyone to know about her relationship with Jiang che and stop thinking about her people.
however, in order not to worry su yunzhi, she did not say it out loud.
su yunzhi looked at her unconcerned expression and helplessly sighed, forget it. In any case, if you encounter any trouble in Sea city, you must find me or your cousin at once.
âI will. Iâll go and find my classmate first.â
it was rare for her to be willing to make friends, so su yunzhi said with relief,âgo on.â
shi yan was about to walk in the direction of jiang ruiâs group when she was stopped by someone.
âshi yan.â it was xuan siyun.
she looked at su yunzhi, who was chatting with someone not far behind shi yan, and asked, â âthe head of the su family in haicheng who was talking to shi yan just now?â
She didnât know if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Shi Yan and su Yunzhi looked a little similar.
If she had not asked someone to investigate Shi Yanâs background, she would have suspected that Shi Yan was really the eldest daughter of the Shi family in the capital city who had never shown her face.
however, according to the information she had found, shi yan had attended school in a small county from junior high school to senior high school. she could clearly find traces of shi yan living there for a long time.
the shi family would not allow their only daughter to suffer such hardship.
Shi Yan glanced at her and nodded.âYes.â
âshi yan and president su know each other?â
âYes, I do.â shi yan replied with a faint smile. her expression was light, and no one could tell what she was feeling.
Xuan Siyun swirled the wine glass in her hand, her eyes darkening as she asked,âhow did shi yan and president su meet?â
âThis is my private matter.â
They werenât that close, so it was rude to ask about other peopleâs private affairs.
Xuan Siyun seemed to have realized it as well. Her smile froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered and said with a big smile, â âiâm sorry, i was rude.â
âItâs fine,â
Just as he was about to leave, Yun Hui, who had come with Xuan Siyun, said, â âsiyun, your friend?â
He looked at Shi Yan with amazement.
This was the first time he had seen such a quiet girl. She was completely different from Xuan Siyunâs bright and flamboyant personality.
The two of them each had their own beauty.
it was a pity that he had vaguely heard people talking about her being an orphan from the countryside.
Her background was much worse than Xuan Siyunâs.
It was not his goal.
otherwise, it would be easier to take down a little girl like her than xuan siyun.
âsheâs my cousinâs friend, weâve met twice.â
âi thought he was your friend and wanted to introduce him to you.â
shi yan didnât have the time to chat with them, so she said directly,âmiss xuan, if thereâs nothing else, iâll head over first. my friend is waiting for me over there.â
jiang rui had already brought ren kexin and the others to the rest area and asked the waiter to bring some desserts, fruits, and wine. as shi yan approached, jiang rui asked, â âwhat did she want to talk to you about?â
âHe asked me how I got to know my aunt.â shi yan sat down beside jiang rui.
âYou told her?â
shi yan raised her eyebrows and asked,âwhy should i tell her about my private matters?â iâm not familiar with her, and we might even be love rivals.â
ren kexin and the rest were speechless.
Although this was the truth, it didnât seem like something Shi Yan would say.
after they sat for a while, yu xi walked towards them. â âMiss Shi Yan, Rui âer,â
âthird young master yu.â
âThird uncle,â
The two of them were about to stand up and greet each other when Yu Xi motioned for them to sit down. She then looked at Ren Kexin and the others beside her. âyouâre all rui âerâs friends, right? Iâm Rui âerâs third uncle, so thereâs no need to be so formal. Just treat it as a small gathering between friends.â
The few of them thanked him in unison.
yu xi had come over to let jiang rui feel that this was indeed her home. as an elder, she had specially come to say hello to jiang ruiâs friend. the second reason was to call jiang rui over. the banquet was about to start, and he was prepared to introduce jiang rui to the guests.
jiang rui left with him, and ren kexin and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
Shi Yan, Rui âerâs third uncleâs aura is too strong. Heâs still so young. I guess heâs only a few years older than Ruiâ erâs brother. Ren Kexin said with emotion.
without waiting for shi yan to answer, chang ru continued, â âhow can a person who can carry an entire family not have a strong aura?â
After being here for a while, they had a rough understanding of what kind of family the Yu family was and what kind of existence the third young master of the Yu family, Yu Xi, held in the Yu family.
it wasnât appropriate to ask jiang rui, but he could always use his phone to search, right?
there was a lot of information about the yu family on the internet.
the few of them chatted for a while. on the other side, yu xi brought jiang rui and xuan liuying to the stage that was set up in the banquet hall.
there was a piano on the stage. someone had been playing it just now, but the performer had left, leaving the seat empty.
â iâm very happy that everyone can attend the yu familyâs banquet. iâm yu xi. after 19 years, iâm back. if nothing goes wrong, iâll be focusing on haicheng in the future. i hope everyone can take care of me. â
It was just a simple sentence, and there was no need to say anything else. Yu Xiâs return had proven his strength. Everyone knew in their hearts that Yu Xi had the ability to bring the Yu family back to glory.
Seeing that some people were curious as to why Yu Xi had brought Jiang Rui on stage, Xuan Liu Ying, su Yunzhi, su mu, and Jiang Sheng were also standing on the stage. Yu Xi was about to formally introduce Jiang Rui to everyone, and Shi Yan and the others were also about to get up and take a closer look when someone appeared beside their resting area.
âWhy are you sitting here?â
Qu Boyan was dressed in a white suit and had a glass of red wine in his hand.
jiang ruiâs roommates were all shocked to see qu boyan.
âMovie Emperor qu!â
âhello.â qu poxiao nodded at them.
then, she looked at shi yan and her gaze fell on shi yanâs dress.âyouâve chosen a good dress.â
âmy boyfriend chose it.â shi yan said with a smile.
âStupid girl, as if I would believe you.â
shi yan didnât say anything more. he wouldnât believe her anyway.
jiang che and yun jian didnât come over. they probably wanted to wait for the matters in yuxi to end. otherwise, once the fifth lord jiang showed up, he would probably steal all the limelight.
âWhen did second brother arrive?â
âafter arriving for a while, i met a few acquaintances and greeted them. theyâve been looking for you, but i didnât expect you to be hiding here. Isnât the young miss of the Jiang family your friend? Arenât you going to take a look?â
âIâm about to go over.â shi yan stood up.
Qu boxiang wanted to reach out to help her stand up, but he did not have the time.
Qianqian retracted her hand. this bratâs stubborn personality hasnât changed at all. Youâre clearly dressed like a lady. Canât you be more ladylike? â whatâs wrong with helping your brother up?â
shi yan looked at him and smiled helplessly. â itâs not a big deal. itâs worth second brotherâs nagging. â
