Chapter 346
She Is From The Countryside
?
346 chapter 346-shi yan is nothing to worry about
âBut, donât you always rather believe in such things than not?â
shi yanâs figure involuntarily appeared in xuan siyunâs mind. she thought of shi yanâs bearing, which was unlike that of an ordinary family.
He frowned and said,âshe doesnât have the ability. Even if she did, what can she do?â she can touch the liu family, but she canât touch the xuan family.â
âas long as he doesnât come from any of the four great clans of the capital, thereâs no need to worry.â
âbut, but young miss, that miss shi yanâs surname is shi. the shi family is one of the four great families in the capital.â
hearing the assistantâs words, xuan siyunâs brows furrowed even deeper. then she said,âeven if sheâs really related to the shi family, thereâs nothing to worry about as long as sheâs not the eldest daughter of the shi family.â
There was only one girl in the three generations of the Shi family.
the outside world knew that she was the apple of the shi familyâs eye. they protected her like their own eyes and never allowed her to show her face in public.
Xuan Siyun had investigated Shi Yan.
shi yan had indeed lived in the countryside for nearly ten years.
How could the Shi family let their precious daughter suffer such hardship?
The assistant thought for a moment and agreed.
In the capital city, only the eldest daughter of the Shi family could barely compare to the eldest daughter, the heir of the Xuan family. The others, even the young ladies of the Shi familyâs collateral branches, were not a threat to the eldest daughter.
âyoung miss, how about young masterâs side?â
the young master has already joined the company. He has the support of the fifth master of the Jiang family. The old master pitied the second branch and only has the young master left. Ever since the young master returned, the old master seems to value the young master very much. Not only does he support the young masterâs joining of the company, but he also often calls him over for dinner.
âthe last time the old man called you over for a meal was three days ago. if this continues, young miss and young master will be a huge threat.â
At the mention of this, Xuan Siyunâs anger couldnât be suppressed.
I really didnât think it through this time. I didnât expect that fifth Lord Jiang would care about that country girl to this extent. Without any evidence to prove that Iâm related to this matter, he didnât hesitate to put in so much effort to get Xuan Jinrui back and even gave Xuan Jinrui his support just to avenge Shi Yan!
xuan siyun regretted that she couldnât hold back her anger and attacked shi yan after going to haicheng.
She thought that she had done a clean job and that even the fifth Lord Jiang wouldnât be able to trace it to her.
however, she had forgotten that the fifth lord jiang often did things without evidence.
when she went to sea city some time ago, it was indeed easy for people to suspect her.
if she had known earlier, she wouldnât have rushed to sea city so impulsively. wouldnât it have been better to sit back and reap the benefits like she did when she fought for the inheritance? there were many people in the capital who didnât want to see shi yan, a country girl, climb up the social ladder with the fifth lord jiang. there would always be someone who couldnât sit still and take action.
Indeed, one could not be impulsive.
Her impulsiveness this time had not only attracted a strong enemy like Xuan Jinrui, but also left a bad impression on the Jiang familyâs fifth Lord!
â however, xuan jinrui is a useless man. the old man is a wise man. he would not abandon a healthy heir like me and choose a sickly person to inherit the xuan family. â
The assistant felt that her words made sense.
the old man didnât look at his grandchildren when choosing his successor. he only looked at individual ability. naturally, he wouldnât choose someone who couldnât take it anymore, no matter how strong that person was.
âbut young miss, now there is another biao young lady. You have to know that miss Shangguanâs mother was the successor that the old master had high hopes for. That miss Shangguan was raised by the Jiang family in Haicheng and sheâs also outstanding enough. Itâs hard to guarantee that the old master wonât have other thoughts.â
âdo we want yingluo?â
the assistant made a throat-cutting gesture.
xuan siyun was a ruthless person, and her assistant, who had always been by her side, was naturally not much better.
He took a sip of red wine from his wine glass.âJiang Rui is in Haicheng, and the SU and Yu families are like one family. They are protected by the Yu, su, and Jiang families of Haicheng. Not to mention that fifth master Jiang is still living in the Jiang family of Haicheng, even the eldest young master of the Jiang family and the third young master of the Yu family are not good people. iâm afraid that if weâre not careful, weâll get into trouble. we canât touch jiang rui for the time being.â
He couldnât move for the time being, not that he didnât want to move.
as soon as she knew that yuxi had returned to haicheng with news of xuan liuying and jiang rui, xuan siyun had the intention to get rid of them.
there were many juniors in the xuan family, but they had fought each other for a long time.
now, the only ones with a stronger presence in the xuan family were xuan siyun and xuan jinrui. before xuan jinrui returned, xuan siyun only needed to get rid of jiang rui and her position as the heir would be stable.
other than going to see jiang che to confirm if the rumors that he had gone from staying indoors to frequently going out because of a woman were true, she had gone to haicheng to see xuan liuying and jiang rui.
â iâve been in contact with jiang rui. sheâs not interested in being the heir of the xuan family. my biggest enemy now is xuan jinrui. â
âLetâs get rid of Xuan Jinrui first, then weâll think about other things.â
âYoung miss, if you had the support of the Jiang familyâs fifth Lord, you wouldnât have had so much trouble. i really donât understand. young miss, in what way are you not better than that country girl? Putting your personal abilities aside, your appearance and figure are all superior to hers. What kind of taste does fifth Lord Jiang have?â
Xuan Siyun was very satisfied with her appearance and figure.
âI was just lucky to meet fifth Lord Jiang three years after he closed his doors. Itâs normal for a man who has no desires and has stayed at home for a long time without seeing outsiders to suddenly see a girl with good looks and a good temperament to have a good impression of.â
âIf I had appeared at the Jiang familyâs residence in Sea city at that time and met him, the fifth Lord of the Jiang family might have taken a fancy to me.â
the assistant agreed.
In fact, they had been overthinking.
Jiang che didnât go out often, but it wasnât that he didnât.
he would occasionally go out under the excuse of going to the hospital for a follow-up, so it was not like he was isolated from people. However, Shi Yan was the only person who could make him want to take her for himself.
If it wasnât that person, no matter what kind of situation they met, the result would not be the same.
just like when jiang che appeared by the lotus pond, if the person sitting there was not shi yan, who moved his heart at first sight, but someone else, he might not have chased after them.
if he didnât give chase, there wouldnât be any follow-up.
âThereâs no rush. The novelty will pass one day. even if the fifth lord jiang is serious and his interest in that little girl wonât fade, i have a way to make them unable to last long!â
after she dealt with xuan jinrui, she would have the power of the xuan family in her hands. by then, nothing would be able to hold her back.
as long as she didnât have so many concerns, wouldnât it be easy to make someone disappear?
She didnât believe that the fifth Lord Jiang would go against her, who held great power in the Xuan family, for a person who had disappeared.
however, the premise of not being restricted was that she had to be in power.
He had to take it one step at a time. There was no hurry. He would let Shi Yan be proud for a while.
by the way, miss, the old Madam of the Jiang family knows that you went to Haicheng some time ago and wants to ask you out for a meal. Should you accept? â
anyone with a brain would know that the fifth master of the Jiang family, especially his parents, is at odds with the Jiang family. It will do me no good to agree to old Madam Jiangâs invitation, so I rejected it.
xuan siyun said disdainfully,âthis matriarch jiang is also stupid. she gave up on the fifth lordâs outstanding son and went to care for her stepsons. what is she after?â Itâs best to avoid contact with such a stupid person.â
