Chapter 63 -63: The Ungrateful Ones are the Jiang Family
But suddenly, the image of that distinguished man he had seen that night flashed across his mind, and Gu Jiaheng felt a twinge of self-doubt.
Feeling Jiang Fanyue’s fingers reaching for his and holding them, his confidence returned. How could Jiang Zhe possibly hold on to a man of such distinction and exceptionality?
Jiang Zhe must still be using such methods to get my attention.
Yet this method was somewhat irritating.
Gu Jiaheng remembered why he thought he had it; it must have been because Lin Xue’s agent had called Chi Feng that night.
Indeed, after that night, Gu Jiaheng had immediately gotten Chi Feng’s contact information from Lin Xue’s agent, but he never managed to get through to that number again.
Otherwise, why would everyone come to Jiang Zhe?
Considering that not even the combined efforts of the Gu Family and Jiang Family could get Chi Feng’s contact information, one can imagine the difficulty.
Hearing that Gu Jiaheng had it, everyone cast hopeful glances his way, and some had already started to sing his praises, “Jiaheng is indeed the eldest son of the Gu Family, with such powerful abilities. He’s still in university, and already he has such connections.”
“That’s the Gu Family for you!”
“Of course, the entire Gu Family business will be Jiaheng’s in the future; it’s not surprising he has such connections.”
How could Gu Jiaheng possibly have Chi Feng’s contact information?
The more the people from the Jiang Family said such things, the more awkward and out of place he felt inside, as if their praises were slapping him across the face.
Every word stung painfully, piercing right into his heart.
He felt an increasing resentment toward Jiang Zhe in his heart. Why was it always like this? Why did she always have to attract his attention this way?
Facing everyone’s expectant gazes, Gu Jiaheng had no choice but to say, “Sorry, I don’t have it.”
“Yes, Chi Feng has been changing his contact information recently; many people can’t get in touch with him. Brother Jiaheng used to have it, but now he can’t get through either,” Jiang Fanyue chimed in timely to help him out of the bind.
Everyone was clearly disappointed, collectively letting out an “oh,” and fell silent in embarrassment.
Gu Jiaheng, who was always able to solve anything and stood high above others, now faced everyone’s collectively disappointed looks, the disparity was too great for him, and he clenched his fingers tight.
“It’s okay, Brother Jiaheng,” came Jiang Fanyue’s gentle, comforting voice.

Gu Jiaheng then remembered he was still holding her fingers. He quickly relaxed his grip and, facing her gentleness, his expression softened.
Seeing that there was no hope with Gu Jiaheng, everyone knew that Jiang Zhe was the only breakthrough.
“Xiaozhe, since Jiaheng doesn’t have it, why don’t you just…”
“I don’t have it.” This time Jiang Zhe was even more abrupt and decisive, not giving others the chance to finish speaking.
Liang Jinlan couldn’t hide her displeasure: “Jiang Zhe, after all, you are a child I adopted from the orphanage. If it weren’t for the Jiang Family, you might still be in the orphanage. You were willing to help Xiao Meng by introducing her to a music conservatory professor, so giving out Chi Feng’s contact shouldn’t be that hard, right?”
“Yes, you help outsiders, but is it so difficult to help your own family? After over a decade of foster care, can’t you do something for the Jiang Family?”
Jiang Yunxuan furrowed his small brows, unable to keep listening, “Sister helped Xiao Meng because when Sister first went to the orphanage, Xiao Meng always took care of her and even saved her a bun!”
“Really? Repaying such a gesture with so much, how many delicacies from the Jiang Family has she eaten then? How many buns do those account for?”
“But Sister has repaid the Jiang Family a lot!” Jiang Yunxuan’s voice was still childlike, yet resounding with conviction, “When Mom was giving birth to me and had a difficult labor with massive bleeding, wasn’t it Sister who found a doctor to treat you and saved your life? I used to be weak and ill, always getting sick, wasn’t it Sister who asked the doctor to treat me and made me well? Aren’t these enough?”
“Yunxuan!” Liang Jinlan loved and was exasperated by her son and could not bear to scold him; even her words of prevention were tender.
“Mom, Sister isn’t ungrateful, if she says she has no contact information, then she doesn’t, is this so hard to understand?”
Jiang Yunxuan was handsome, neither having the square face like Jiang Zhang nor the faintly visible harshness of Liang Jinlan; he was likable, which made his words inherently credible.
Everyone also remembered that Jiang Zhe had indeed done such things, especially since Jiang Yunxuan was born frail; it was nearly all Jiang Zhe’s doing that he was nursed to his current condition.
At that time, many doctors said Jiang Yunxuan surely couldn’t be saved, the Gu Family and Jiang Family both sought many doctors, but all to no avail; they could only watch as Jiang Yunxuan was nearly at his last breath.
Even Liang Jinlan herself believed this son couldn’t be kept and resigned to fate.
But Jiang Zhe never gave up, quietly going out in the heavy rain, and later returning with medicine, claiming it came from a chance encounter with a renowned doctor.
At that time, the Jiang Family fed Jiang Yunxuan that medicine in a desperate hope.
Then a miracle happened, from barely clinging to life, Jiang Yunxuan slowly recovered, and after taking more of that medicine, he eventually restored to a normal state and caught up to other children in growth and development.
Thinking back to that rainy day, thunder deafening, Jiang Zhe was only a few years old; when she returned, she was like a drowned chicken, shivering and her lips purple with cold.
With this image surfacing in their minds, no one could morally bind her any longer.
Even on Liang Jinlan’s face would flicker an awkward smile now and then, she remembered every deed of Jiang Fanyue’s firmly, those done by Jiang Zhe, if not for Jiang Yunxuan’s reminder, she would have completely forgotten.
Now that everyone remembered this incident, it became difficult for Liang Jinlan to morally bind Jiang Zhe further.
Even to describe her with words like ungrateful was utterly wrong.
If one were to talk about ingratitude, merely what Jiang Zhe did for Jiang Yunxuan was already beyond monetary value!
It was more accurate to say the Jiang Family was ungrateful to Jiang Zhe.
Jiang Fanyue also remembered those times, but she too didn’t know where the famed doctor was, otherwise, she would have done the same.
She didn’t expect, Jiang Zhe having saved Jiang Yunxuan, that he in his infant state seemed to remember all of it, both dependent on and fond of her.
Even keeping all these matters deep in his heart.
Jiang Zhang also felt ashamed, having genuinely forgotten the things Jiang Zhe had done.
Her independent and free-spirited nature led everyone to forget her contributions to the Jiang Family, only remembering her moments of nonconformity.
A sense of guilt rose in Jiang Zhang’s heart; in this family, it was always the wife who ran things.
He had heard many things from Liang Jinlan’s side, inevitably leading to some prejudice against Jiang Zhe.
