25: Chapter 25 I Will Marry You 25: Chapter 25 I Will Marry You Two minutes later.
Jiang Qi glanced at the rearview mirror inside the car, “Fifth Young Master Jiang, the Young Madam should be at Fanghua Ruming.”
The man said in a deep voice, “Drive.”
“Yes, Fifth Young Master Jiang.”
Jiang Qi restarted the car, and it sped away down the road.
–
At this mont, Fanghua Ruming was extraordinarily lively.
The real nightlife had just fired its opening shot.
Su He and Jing Xuan were simply chatting since Su He doesn’t drink.
The two sat on the sofa on the third floor, looking down at the bustling scene on the first floor through the floor-to-ceiling glass wall beside them.
This floor-to-ceiling glass wall was one-way; one could look out from inside, but not see in from outside.
Su He was intently staring at the heated dance on the dance floor of the first floor.
While Jing Xuan, by chance, caught a glimpse of soone walking in through the main door on the first floor.
The reason she had chosen this spot for her office at Fanghua Ruming was because of the great view; sitting here, one could almost see the entire first floor at a glance.
She suddenly rembered that a subordinate had reported that Young Master Gu of the Gu Family had organised a welco party at Fanghua Ruming tonight.
Gu Beiyan and Jiang Yan were childhood friends; the only person in Yue City who could make Young Master Gu personally arrange a gathering was Fifth Young Master Jiang.
She glanced at her best friend beside her; it seed that these two people also shared quite a fate.
“Baobao, do you want to go down for a dance?” Jing Xuan asked casually.
Su He glanced at her with the corner of her eye, “I’m already tired from a day’s work.”
What was even more exhausting was the fact that Jiang Yan suddenly beca unwilling to divorce.
She really couldn’t figure it out; why did he suddenly change his mind?
Jing Xuan didn’t believe her one bit.
She considered herself a workaholic, but compared to Su He, she still fell slightly short.
Back in her dical studies, she could spend days and nights in the laboratory to conduct research, almost living there.
She had no concept of what being tired was.
It was only after she got her godson that she scaled back a little, returning to the rhythm of a normal person’s life.
Jing Xuan turned to look at her, “Do you really not plan to give it a try with Jiang Yan?” She pondered for a mont and then added: “Besides, not all love is untrustworthy.”
In fact, Su He harbored a serious bias against romance.
What’s important is that she didn’t believe in this ‘thing’ called love.
All this was due to the influence of her parents, which had left a profound shadow on her.
In her world, there was family and friendship, but love was conspicuously absent.
She wasn’t a person devoid of emotions; she was just indifferent to love.
“You know my situation, and besides, you know why Jiang Yan and I got married,” Su He said indifferently.
Her tone remained calm, without any ripples of emotion.
Even if Jiang Yan had no one he liked, she couldn’t be with him.
Because she couldn’t bring herself to like him.
“What about you, then?” Su He retorted, “I heard that the marriage between the Lu Family and the Ye Family is going to be called off.”
A peculiar gleam crossed the depths of Jing Xuan’s eyes, her red lips curved slightly, “I don’t go back on my word, and with my current standing, what kind of man can’t I have?
I’m not the type to give up an entire forest for one tree.”
Su He looked at her.
Though she was smiling, Su He knew that smile was bitter.
She spoke lightly, but only she knew how hard and awkward these six years had been for her.
Glamorous on the surface, she would hide and cry day and night in private.
“Why then did you have soone ss with the Lu Family and Ye Family’s wedding?” Su He joked.
Jing Xuan paused slightly, “You deserve to be my Baobao, I can’t hide anything from you.”
Su He was just guessing.
The Lu Family and the Ye Family were among the top echelons of Beijing’s elite, and Ye Hanqing was the darling daughter of the Ye Family, the jewel in their palm, whom no one dared to provoke.
There were very few who had the courage to plot against this daughter of the Ye Family, especially planning a scandal that could have resulted in her being caught in an affair in public.
“I plotted against Ye Hanqing, it has nothing to do with him, it’s her own fault for jumping around in front of .” Jing Xuan said with self-mockery, “I’ve always been willful and overbearing, considering nobody else’s views, always convinced that I am right.”
To be honest, she hadn’t thought it through at the ti, never considering whether it would disrupt the marriage arrangent between the Lu and Ye families.
Su He gazed at her with a touch of sympathy twinkling in her eyes.
She chuckled, winking at her with sparkling eyes: “What to do, I just love your willful and tyrannical nature, it’s such a rare treasure in this world.
If I were a man, I’d definitely marry you.”
Jing Xuan was amused by her words, jesting back: “You’re not a man, but you can still marry .”
Su He: “Forget it, I don’t want to scare the entire family back ho.”
–
In another private room.
It was much livelier.
The gathering was organized by Gu Beiyan, and the attendees were all from the sa social circle.
Long He Song suddenly rembered sothing: “Beiyan, is Zhiyang not coming to Five’s welco party tonight?”
Gu Beiyan, the very picture of nonchalance, was lounging on the sofa with his legs crossed, dressed in garishly flamboyant clothes.
However, the outfit seed perfectly natural on him, even stylish, giving off a rakishly charming vibe.
“Yeah, he’s coming.
I’ve ssaged him, he should be arriving soon,” Gu Beiyan arched his eyebrows, “What’s up?”
Long He Song’s face fell as he leaned in to whisper, “Beiyan, Xin Xuan manages Fanghua Ruming, you know.”
He couldn’t imagine what a chaotic scene it would be if those two t.
Gu Beiyan said, “Don’t worry, I’ve checked already.
She won’t be here tonight, they won’t run into each other.”
Long He Song wanted to say more, but at that mont, the door to the private room opened.
Jiang Yan and Lu Zhiyang arrived.
They had run into each other in the elevator, with Lu Zhiyang coming from the underground parking.
The arrival of the two magnates instantly quieted down the other wealthy scions in the room.
They all stood up to greet them.
Mainly because each of them had a powerful presence, a natural king-like aura that was both impressive and intimidating.
“You guys sure took your ti; we’ve been waiting for ages,” Gu Beiyan imdiately perked up, “Co on, sit here.”
Long He Song made way and looked at Jiang Yan and Lu Zhiyang as he politely greeted, “Five, Zhiyang.”
“Uh-huh.”
Both n responded and took the seats of honor.
Gu Beiyan liked excitent, and seeing everyone beco restrained, he called out, “Don’t stop now, keep the party alive, relax and have fun tonight, they won’t bite.”
However, everyone was still hesitant.
Jiang Yan, ever so cool, simply stated, “Carry on, don’t mind .”
It was only after Jiang Yan spoke that everyone seed to receive an ‘imperial decree’ allowing them to resu their fun.
Even though he had been away from Yue City for four years, his authority had been firmly established even before he left.
Gu Beiyan was utterly speechless, “…”
Since when had his words carried so little weight?
Never mind, he wouldn’t fuss with these brats this ti.
“You’re planning to stay this ti you’re back?” he asked, looking towards the brooding Jiang Yan.
It took him a mont to notice Jiang Yan’s troubled expression, since it was widely known he always appeared aloof.
The man spared only a terse “Hmm” in response.
But it was Lu Zhiyang who first noticed sothing was amiss, “Ah Yan, what’s wrong?
Who upset you?”
He had wanted to ask in the elevator.
“Huh?”
Gu Beiyan, slightly slow to catch on and quite astonished, said, “Who could possibly have the guts to annoy our fearso Fifth Young Master Jiang?”
His gossip-loving DNA imdiately surged into action.
Anyone who could upset Jiang Yan was a rare gem in this world.
He was very curious to know who that person was…
