After Being Blackened All Over the Internet, I Ruled the Military Variety Chapter 605 - 595: The Abyss is like a Prison
President Cao accepted the water handed over by his granddaughter.
After taking a sip, he asked, "Where did you go just now? An old veteran from the entertainnt industry ca by looking for you, but you were nowhere to be found."
Cao Xinyan imdiately felt guilty and regretful and stamred in explanation, "I just t soone who was nice to talk to and couldn’t help but chat a little longer."
"Were they also in the entertainnt circle?"
"Uh, yes."
"With your personality, I always thought the entertainnt industry didn’t suit you, but you insisted on entering it. Those who approach you are doing so because of your background. Listen to what they have to say but don’t believe it. Later, follow , and I’ll introduce you to so people who can really help you."
Cao Xinyan couldn’t help but think of Jiang Xiyu.
Could Jiang Xiyu also have approached her because of her grandfather’s influence, deliberately urging her to embarrass herself in front of Mr. Shen!
However, before President Cao could finish drinking the water from his dutiful granddaughter, a man wearing the Yuan Family’s security uniform approached and stopped in front of the grandfather and granddaughter, "Miss Cao, our young master and Miss Jiang request your presence."
President Cao raised his eyes in surprise, "Yuan Family’s young master? Which Miss Jiang? Why would they suddenly want to see Xinyan?"
Cao Xinyan had just picked up a low-alcohol sparkling wine and hadn’t had ti to drink it; her fingers trembled at the sound, causing the glass to topple and spill the wine across the table, bubbling and fizzing.
Just like the sudden ferntation of her guilt.
President Cao heard the noise and turned to look, just catching sight of his granddaughter’s panicked expression, and his heart sank.
This didn’t seem like anything good had happened.
He imdiately put down his cup and planned to get up, "I’ll go with Xinyan."
But the security didn’t give him any face this ti, "I’m sorry, President Cao, the young master and Miss Jiang only invited Miss Cao. Please don’t make things difficult for us subordinates."
"Xinyan, what exactly were you doing just now?"
Even the Yuan’s young master was alerted, suggesting it wasn’t sothing trivial.
Seeing her always-respected grandfather being so rudely treated, Cao Xinyan didn’t know where she found the courage. She stood up abruptly, "I’ll go with you then!"
All she did was muster the courage to stop Mr. Shen and say two words; could it result in such heavy consequences?
Even if this was the Yuan’s territory, surely the young master and Jiang Lingxi wouldn’t punish her privately!
The sa scenario was happening in two other places.
With surveillance caras and on-site footage, even if the two tried to hide deliberately, as long as they didn’t leave the Yuan’s premises, they could be found easily.
Moreover, Jiang Xiyu and Zhang Lingxuan didn’t hide away because of their guilt. Instead, they mingled openly beside Mr. Han and the second young master Hou.
The security who approached them spoke the sa lines as their colleague.
Only the security in front of Jiang Xiyu had sothing more in hand given to him by Jiang Lingxi.
As soon as the item was revealed, Jiang Xiyu’s face changed drastically.
The disturbed Mr. Han asked, "What’s going on? Why did the young master specifically ask for you? Did you lie earlier when you said you needed a break?"
"No, no," Jiang Xiyu hurriedly denied, "I, I just..."
"The young master and Miss Jiang are in a hurry. Please accompany promptly, Miss Jiang."
Without that piece of fabric, Jiang Xiyu could still argue for a few words.
But now, caught between the rare suspicion from Mr. Han and the aggressive security, she didn’t know how to explain, feeling that no explanation would go well.
"Never mind, I’ll go with you to see what’s going on."
"The young master and Miss Jiang requested only Miss Jiang; we ask for your understanding, Mr. Han."
Zhang Lingxuan over here was directly glared at fiercely by the second young master Hou.
"What trouble have you caused this ti?"
"I, I didn’t," Zhang Lingxuan shook her head desperately, "Are you sure you found the right person?"
"There’s no mistake, and Miss Zhang, your grandfather is also with the young master and Miss Jiang now."
The second young master Hou could tell Zhang Lingxuan wasn’t being truthful just by looking at her expression. Although he wasn’t clear about what foolish thing she had done, having caught the attention of even the young master definitely indicated sothing significant.
He imdiately shook off Zhang Lingxuan’s arm from his, "Take her over then."
She was such a troublemaker, and now he was irritated too; he didn’t mind soone else handling her so he could enjoy so peace.
"Second young master!"
Zhang Lingxuan couldn’t believe it as she was dragged away.
In the corridor leading to the lounge, the three gathered.
After exchanging glances, their faces beca wooden.
The door to the lounge was pushed open, and the three walked in a row inside.
Jiang Lingxi was examining Xu Ling’an’s newly changed outfit.
"An’an looks good in this too."
Tong Yue, who had previously helped Xu Ling’an with the outfit, had already grasped the gist of what happened earlier, "It’s rather imposing, just right for the occasion."
"Sit." After letting Xu Ling’an sit beside her, Jiang Lingxi turned to look at the three entering, "Since you all ca together, great, shut the door."
The sound of the door closing echoed.
Cao Xinyan was barely the most composed of the three, her heart having so confidence.
Her grandfather was outside, he surely wouldn’t ignore her.
Jiang Xiyu’s knees trembled as she looked at the seemingly tribunal-like scene. If there were a pill of regret in front of her, she would swallow it imdiately.
She just wanted to give Jiang Lingxi a hard ti, but look at what she had stumbled upon!
Yet Zhang Lingxuan was the worst of them all.
Faced first with Shen Yunqing, who had unhesitatingly stabbed her hand with a dining knife, and now with her grandfather glaring at her with a dark face under the lights, she lost her balance upon entering the room, her foot twisted in her ten-centiter high heel, causing her to gasp in pain.
Even so, her grandfather showed no sign of compassion, and her heart instantly beca cold and desolate.
Jiang Lingxi observed the performances of the three and for the first ti let her aura pour out without restraint, "Will you say it yourselves, or should I help you?"
The previously relaxed atmosphere in the lounge instantly dropped to freezing point.
The host, who was allowed to stay specifically, subconsciously lightened his breathing, realizing he had stood up from the sofa.
Locking eyes with the similarly standing Tong Yue, he opened his mouth but ultimately dared not speak.
If even those around were like this, it goes unsaid for the trio being stared down by Jiang Lingxi.
For the first ti, they experienced the pressure of Mount Tai, drowning in the deep sea, unsure how to breathe despite air being everywhere.
The first to crumble was Zhang Lingxuan, who was under focused scrutiny.
Her twisted ankle had already numbed from pain, her whole being shrouded in imnse unknown fear, and as those abyss-like eyes turned towards her, her legs went weak uncontrollably, causing her to collapse to the floor with a thud.
If she hadn’t just visited the bathroom, she felt she might have wet herself right then and there.
A broken scream echoed in the lounge: "I’m wrong, I’m kowtowing, don’t kill !"
The hearing of the Yuan Family’s young master gasped in shock.
So, it was possible to question like this!
