She Is From The Countryside-Chapter 531
?
531 he actually didnโt know her identity
The auction was held in the form of a banquet and an auction. ๐๐ฏ๐e๐ธe๐ฃ๐ท๐ฐัตe๐.cเซฆ๐ข
it could be seen that the auction was just an excuse. in fact, it was no different from other business banquets, used to expand social connections.
nan city was not a place jiang che was familiar with, but there were definitely people in the circle who had heard of fifth lord jiangโs name and had seen him before. it was just that they did not dare to think that he would appear here.
therefore, when shi yanโs group appeared at the banquet venue, everyoneโs attention was attracted by their appearance. some people felt that they had seen jiang che before, but they didnโt dare to think that it was fifth lord jiang.
On the other hand, Xie Xingchen quickly came up to them the moment they entered the venue.
โXingxing, do you think the person walking towards us is Mr. Xie who invited you over? heโs really thoughtful. your friendship with him is only so-so, but he actually left so many important people behind to greet you.โ
Shi Yao was feeling extremely nervous, especially when she was walking together with such an eye-catching group of people. If it werenโt for mu Xingxing holding her arm, her legs wouldโve turned to jelly and she wouldnโt have been able to walk.
however, this did not stop her from gossiping.
she had seen many people at the banquet on tv, most of whom were famous people in southern city. before he saw them, xie xingchen was entertaining a big shot he had seen on tv.
โi donโt have that much face.โ Mu Xingxing laughed.
shi yao was puzzled.
mu xingxing didnโt say much and only looked at jiang che and shi yan with a smile.
shi yao instantly understood.
โthe stars.โ Xie Xingchen greeted mu Xingxing first and did not ignore her. It could be said that he was very thoughtful.
โThank you for your invitation, Sir.โ
โyouโre welcome. youโre my sisterโs good friend, so youโre my good friend as well. Besides, I should be the one thanking you.โ
โthank me?โ
โ thatโs right. thank you. if it werenโt for you, i wouldnโt have been able to invite the fifth master of the jiang family and the young master of the su family. โ He took a few steps forward and called out to Jiang che and su mu, โ Iโm sorry. I was in a hurry that day and didnโt recognize fifth Lord Jiang and young master su at first sight. It was my business partner who recognized you and reminded me just now. Otherwise, Iโm afraid I would have to neglect you two.
he pulled the person who had come with him to his side. โ โ this is my partner, xue yu, from south city. the auction was organized by us together. xue yu likes to travel around, so iโve seen you two on some occasions. โ
โJiang, fifth Lord Jiang, young master su.โ xue yu quickly went up to greet him. he was very timid in front of jiang che and could not even greet him properly.
after all, this was someone elseโs place. since he had accepted the invitation, he should still give him some face.
Jiang che nodded slightly.
he did not make a sound.
Su mu, on the other hand, said, โ weโre just here for a vacation in southern city. Itโs a private trip. Itโs just a coincidence that weโre here to join in the fun. You donโt have to be so polite. You can go and entertain the others.
It was obvious that they didnโt want to show off and wanted to keep a low profile.
No one dared to say that Jiang che was not giving them face. On the contrary, Xue Yu was flattered that he could nod at them.
โthen, then please be at ease. i hope you can bid for something as you wish tonight. itโs not a wasted trip. xingchen and i will go entertain the other guests. by the way, xingchen has arranged room number eleven for you all. if youโre tired, you can go and rest.โ
xie xingchen said,โi didnโt know that it was fifth lord jiang and young master su, so the private room was randomly arranged. now that i know itโs the two of you, iโm afraid that room 11 is not very suitable.โ xue yu, get someone to make the arrangements and empty room number one.โ
Xue Yu smacked his forehead and apologized to them, โ โ look at me, iโm so confused. iโll go arrange it now! โ
Jiang che didnโt care what room it was. With his status, he had always enjoyed the best treatment and had long been used to other peopleโs special treatment. In his opinion, it was not a big deal for others to change his room to the best room at the last minute.
But Shi Yan was unwilling to accept this favor.
Once he accepted this favor, if Xie Xingchen looked for Jiang che or su mu for any matters in the future, it would not be good to reject them directly.
it was a problem.
โNo need to trouble yourself, Room 11 will do,โ she said.
xie xingchen and xue yu seemed to have just noticed shi yan, and were a little surprised that she could make a decision without the fifth lord jiangโs permission.
in the eyes of these people, women were often just menโs accessories, and the more powerful the man was, the more so.
however, the two of them were very observant. seeing that shi yan had finished speaking and jiang che didnโt say anything, as if he would do whatever she said, they didnโt dare to neglect shi yan.
then weโll do as this young lady says and stay in Room 11. Iโll get someone to clean up Room 11 again and change it to the best tea. xie xingchen said. ๐ณ๐ง๐๐w๐ฒ๐n๐๐ซ๐๐ญ.๐om
Xue Yu bade him farewell and left to make the arrangements.
Xie Xingchen didnโt leave immediately. He looked at Shi Yan and Jing Hailan. I was being impolite to the two of you just now. How may I address you? โ
However, he was not staring at them as he asked this question. Instead, he was looking at Jiang che and su mu.
He had a good sense of propriety.
โshi yan, my fiancรฉe.โ Jiang che said.
Xie Xingchen was a little surprised that he would respond and even emphasize the word โfiancรฉeโ.
su mu had introduced jing hailan in a similar way.
โoh, itโs miss shi and miss jing. iโve been rude.โ
then, he looked at shi yan and hesitated for a while before asking, โ if i may ask, is there any relationship between miss shi and the shi family in the capital city? โ
โ itโs really presumptuous of me to say that. i noticed that miss shiโs eyes resemble eldest madam shiโs, and miss shi came here with young master su, so i couldnโt help but overthink it. after all, itโs no secret in the circle that the eldest madam of the shi family in jingdu is the eldest daughter of the su family in haicheng. โ
Su mu answered before Shi Yan, โ โyanyan is my younger sister.โ
This confirmed Xie Xingchenโs guess.
xie xingchen seemed to be a little shocked by this news. he opened his mouth and only said after a long while, โ โi actually guessed right.โ
โFifth Lord Jiangโs fiancรฉe is the eldest daughter of the Shi family, who rarely shows her face in public. If this news gets back to the capital, I donโt know how many people will be shocked,โ he said half-jokingly.
this reaction didnโt seem like she was pretending to not know.
Xie Xingchen really did not know about her relationship with the Shi family.
this surprised shi yan.
in the capital city, other than the shi family who had a deeper relationship with her, the xie family was second.
The old master of the Xie family had three brothers. After the third branch was expelled from the Xie family, the Xie family still had the first branch and the second branch. as the eldest son of the xie familyโs second branch, xie xingchen still had some status in the xie family.
Xie Heng had already seen her in Haicheng, but Xie Xingchen still did not know about her relationship with the Shi family.
Well, the Xie family seemed to be similar to the one-word rule. Whoever was in charge had the absolute right to speak. Indeed, not everyone was qualified to ask about the matters of Xie Heng, the family head.
Thinking about it this way, it did not seem strange that Xie Xingchen did not know her identity.
โWhat? youโre the young lady of the shi family?โ
at this moment, someone exclaimed in shock.
It was mu.
Her reaction was so big that everyone around her, including Jiang che, looked at her.
shi yan looked at her and smiled. โ i thought xingxing already knew. youโve also heard me call su mu โcousinโ. โ
โAlso, Xingxing, your reaction is too big. Is it so hard to believe that Iโm the young miss of the Shi family? Iโm also surnamed Shi.โ
