As soon as Lady Suchen made this statent, almost all mbers of the Jiang Family were petrified on the spot.
Especially Yu Man and Jiang Guosheng, and Jiang Weiwei.
Yu Man was particularly unabashed in her fury, shooting a vicious glare at Jiang Weiwei.
Originally, the topic of Jiang Moxi was not supposed to co up during this eting, but Jiang Weiwei insisted on bringing up Jiang Moxi ti and again!
Now, Jiang Moxi’s na had also captured Lady Suchen’s attention.
If this conversation continued, wouldn’t it drag out all the embarrassing things Jiang Moxi had done and cause the faces of the entire Jiang Family to be rubbed in the dirt?
Not only had Jiang Weiwei received a glare from Yu Man, but Jiang Tairan and Jiang Guosheng also shot her looks that said she was good-for-nothing and only caused trouble.
This made Jiang Weiwei’s heart panic erratically.
She had only just recently managed to regain the good regard of the Jiang Family mbers thanks to Lady Suchen, so how could she beco like this again without realizing it?
At this mont, Jiang Weiwei was at a loss as to how to handle the situation.
But it seed that Lady Suchen was quite intrigued by the na "Moxi", and as she saw the Jiang Family mbers suddenly falling silent, she could not help but push for answers.
"What’s the matter? Don’t you have a photo of that girl?"
Jiang Tairan considered carefully before he said, "Actually, that girl is just a distant relative of ours. We aren’t very close to her, and we don’t have her photo."
"A distant relative..." Lady Suchen seed sowhat disappointed.
And Jiang Guosheng hurriedly followed up on Jiang Tairan’s words: "Yes, just a distant relative. She occasionally cos to our house to play, but being a child who grew up in a remote area, her conduct is sowhat improper, so we haven’t allowed her to get too close to Weiwei, fearing she might lead Weiwei astray."
"Exactly, exactly, we don’t really let Weiwei play with her."
After Yu Man echoed the sentint, she couldn’t resist asking Lady Suchen, "However, why is Lady Suchen so interested in the na Moxi?"
Lady Suchen explained, "Didn’t I tell you before that I t a child before whom I felt a strong connection with, and both Lai De and I were considering adopting her as our foster daughter?"
Everyone in the Jiang Family nodded; they indeed rembered Lady Suchen ntioning this.
And it was precisely because of this that they had the idea of winning Lady Suchen’s favor through Jiang Weiwei, with the hope of thereby taking over the entire THE ONE Group.
Seeing their reaction, Lady Suchen continued: "That girl’s na also contains the character ’Xi’, so I can’t help but feel a fondness for girls whose nas contain ’Xi’."
Hearing Lady Suchen say this, Jiang Tairan and the others couldn’t help but think that the girl with ’Xi’ in her na must be exceptional.
Otherwise, how could she have left such an indelible mark on Lady Suchen’s mory and even make Lady Suchen view all girls with the na ’Xi’ through a lens of fondness?
Jiang Tairan even thought to himself that it would be great if Jiang Moxi was the girl in question from Lady Suchen’s story. Then, they wouldn’t have to anxiously push Jiang Weiwei in front of Lady Suchen; instead, all they’d have to do is to sit back and wait for Lady Suchen to curry favor with them.
But Jiang Tairan only dared to entertain the thought. If Jiang Moxi had even half the excellence of that girl, she wouldn’t be serving dishes here now.
Jiang Weiwei, listening to Lady Suchen express her fondness for girls with "Xi" in their nas, suddenly thought of Xixi, whom Feng Yu tenderly and affectionately called in a sweet tone.
Could it be possible, just like that Xixi, the girl Lady Suchen has been reminiscing was also Jiang Moxi?
The mont this thought crossed her mind, Jiang Weiwei began to panic.
No, surely the heavens couldn’t be so unfair, right?
Jiang Moxi had already likely gained Feng Yu’s partiality; it surely couldn’t be possible that she also occupied Lady Suchen’s favor.
So, Jiang Moxi couldn’t be the girl Lady Suchen was referring to...
Jiang Weiwei was so lost in these thoughts that she was oblivious to the conversation happening around her.
At this mont, Suchen was about to go forward to greet the banquet’s organizer, Ling Yinan, but Jiang Weiwei seed still imrsed in her own world.
Seeing Suchen was leaving, Jiang Tairan planned to have Jiang Weiwei catch up with Suchen. Later on, they could also use this opportunity to go up and greet Ling Yinan, brushing up on their presence in front of her.
But when Jiang Tairan turned around, he saw Jiang Weiwei still standing there in a daze, so he had to remind her out loud, "Weiwei, what’s wrong with you?"
Jiang Weiwei then ca back to her senses, "No, nothing."
Then she hastily followed Suchen.
Ling Yinan was just as gentle and intellectual as her na suggested, but not so strong as to be overwhelming.
The impression she gave was very similar to Suchen, which was probably the reason why the two could beco friends.
When Ling Yinan saw Jiang Weiwei following behind Suchen, she simply nodded to her instead of deliberately steering the conversation towards Jiang Weiwei like she did with others.
After Ling Yinan and Suchen t, the two simply had a girlfriend chat, not involving business or other people, just revolving around topics of their interest.
But this made Jiang Weiwei feel as if she had been left out in the cold.
Jiang Weiwei tried several tis to attract attention but didn’t receive the response she wanted.
Even during her last light cough, Suchen said, "Weiwei, if you’re not feeling well, go sit down and rest in the dining area."
Jiang Weiwei had only just managed to stand beside Suchen legitimately, not yet getting more networking resources from Suchen, how could she be willing to leave?
So Jiang Weiwei hurriedly said, "Aunt Suchen, I’m fine. You guys talk, I find your conversation very interesting."
Normally this would start a topic, and she thought Ling Yinan, if she were tactful, would follow up by asking about Jiang Weiwei.
But then Ling Yinan simply continued chatting with Suchen, completely treating Jiang Weiwei as if she were invisible.
Jiang Weiwei was almost furious until Jiang Tairan brought other mbers of the Jiang Family over to greet Ling Yinan, making her feel slightly better.
Jiang Tairan exchanged a few complints with Ling Yinan, and then politely smiled at Suchen and Jiang Weiwei, "Lady Suchen, Weiwei, we et again."
Jiang Tairan just wanted to make a presence in front of Ling Yinan, letting her rember Jiang Weiwei and the Jiang Family as well.
In this way, if Ling Yinan had any good projects in the future, she would surely think of them, the Jiang Family, first. It was supposed to please Suchen, right?
But Jiang Tairan soon realized that Ling Yinan wasn’t like others, prioritizing the appeasent of Suchen. She didn’t even ask about the relationship between Jiang Weiwei and their Jiang Family, continuing her animated conversation with Suchen.
The two talked and laughed happily, treating the crowd as if they were just a backdrop.
Their indifference made Jiang Weiwei and the rest of the Jiang Family, who were eagerly waiting on the sidelines hoping to be noticed, extrely embarrassed.
It wasn’t until a commotion suddenly swept through the venue that everyone couldn’t help but look in the direction of the noise.
"Cang Ming! It’s Cang Ming!"
"My god, Cang Ming never attends banquets. Ling’s must have spent a lot of money to get him here."
The crowd couldn’t help but gossip about Cang Ming.
Hearing this, Suchen couldn’t resist asking Ling Yinan, "How much did you spend to get this kid here to spice up the event?"
And Suchen felt that bringing in a superstar to heat up the event wasn’t Ling Yinan’s style.
Unsurprisingly, Ling Yinan told her, "It was Huahua’s tutor who invited him, and it didn’t cost any money at all."
Suchen imdiately showed an "I knew it" expression.
Then Ling Yinan said, "Later, I’ll introduce you to Huahua’s tutor, not only is the child handso, he’s also exceptionally well-mannered and sensible; I like him very much."
