Chapter 205: The Past (1)
Haicheng District, Xilong Villa.
The Jian Group had developed residential villas in the prosperous area of Haicheng District, and every inch of land in the district was expensive. The most expensive district was the comrcial center. Xilong Villa was built there as a residential area and was so expensive that even ordinary families could not afford it.
Hence, Xilong Villa was also known as the ho of rich families. Top-notch families in Baiyun City bought a property there.
Xilong, Alley Four, Number 68, Jian family.
Qiao Shuyi was dressed in light pink casual wear made of silk, and she was leaning against the leather sofa. Her fair skin was without makeup, and her hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall. She had a refined and elegant aura that did not match her age.
“Madam.”
Nanny Xu ca out of the kitchen and took a look at Qiao Shuyi, who was leaning on the sofa. Her expression froze, and she slowly said, “The soup is done. We can start eating.”
Qiao Shuyi retracted her gaze from the television and looked up at the clock on the wall.
It was almost eight in the evening, but Changsheng was not back yet.
“Sir is busy with work these few days, so he’s always back late. Madam, why don’t you eat while it’s hot?” Nanny Xu had been in the Jian family for more than ten years and had been taking care of the family since Qiao Shuyi was pregnant. Hence, she was less worried when she spoke.
Sir and Madam were very much in love, with the wife being very reliant on the husband. Even as the husband returned late, she would reveal a lancholic look on her face.
Qiao Shuyi sighed and stood up from the sofa. She said to Nanny Xu, “Leave so food for Changsheng. If he goes out to socialize, he’ll have to eat another al when he cos back.”
“Madam, don’t worry. I’ve kept them.” Nanny Xu smiled and looked at the stairs on the second floor. Then, she said, “I’ll go up and call Miss.”
Qiao Shuyi nodded slightly and went to the dining table for her al.
The Jian family was one of the top-notch noble families in Baiyun City. Their dinner was sumptuous, with eight dishes and a soup. However, Qiao Shuyi sat at the dining table alone and looked at the table full of dishes in a daze. She did not touch her chopsticks for a long ti.
Qiao Shuyi was born in a family of scholars in the capital, and the Qiao family was a high-ranking family in the capital. They were involved in both business and politics.
When she was young, Qiao Shuyi was already a socialite in the capital. She was beautiful and had a great temperant. She was also talented, intelligent, and dignified. She had chard countless n from rich families.
Later, the Jian Group’s business entered the capital, and under a freak combination of circumstances, they ford a good relationship with the Qiao family. To gain a stable footing in the capital, Old Master Jian knew that he had to hold onto the Qiao family, a huge tree that was deeply rooted in the capital.
Hence, he thought of letting his son marry the Qiao family’s daughter.
Qiao Shuyi knew that there was an ulterior motive to this marriage. However, she did not know that although Jian Changsheng was not married at that ti, he already had a two-year-old son.
Jian Changsheng loved Wang Yuni so deeply that they had a two-year-old son. Naturally, he wouldn’t listen to Old Master Jian and marry Qiao Shuyi, soone whom he had never seen before.
However, Old Master Jian used the position of the Jian Group’s chairman to force Jian Changsheng to submit. To Old Master Jian, even if Wang Yuni gave birth to a grandson of the Jian family, he would never admit it.
In his eyes, benefits were always above all, and family was no exception.
Jian Changsheng was not the only son in the family. He had an elder sister and a younger brother. It wasn’t yet confird that he was going to be the next chairman.
In the face of the Jian Group, which was worth over a hundred million yuan at that ti, Jian Changsheng was eventually tempted.
