481 Stay as a guest
Just now, when she was blocked by people, she found an opportunity to send a message to Tong Yan. Then, Tong Yan hurriedly brought his men over.
“Is there any news of Jiang che?”
she had also sent a message to jiang che, but there was no reply.
“Fifth Lord Jiang is at Crescent Bay. As for what happened after he returned, our people didn’t follow him too closely for fear of disturbing him, so we don’t know. however, one thing is for sure. fifth lord jiang didn’t leave the village after he returned to crescent bay. there was no big movement from crescent bay, so fifth lord jiang should be fine.”
shi yan didn’t feel at ease because of her words.
he took out his phone and dialed wu yaozi’s number.
He was temporarily unable to connect.
He then dialed the phone number in his memory and called several other people in the village, but he could not get through.
shi yan heaved a sigh of relief.
he couldn’t even get through to his phone. it seemed like the signal was blocked.
no matter how capable jiang zhe was, it was impossible for him to touch the entire village. Crescent Bay wasn’t some backward village. It had internet access, and many families in the village had surveillance cameras.
“don’t worry, miss shi. fifth brother is my younger brother. Besides, he’s the Jiang family’s fifth Lord that countless people respect and fear. I was only able to trap him for a short while with the help of the lordmaster, so how could I do anything else?”
just then, shi yan’s phone vibrated.
She received a message: [ it’s fine. Don’t worry. I’ll be there soon. ]
shi yan had just finished reading the message when another group of people came. shi yan had seen the first person before. he was the one who had sent the bus to them at the station that day.
“Miss Shi Yan, we’re sorry that we’re late. We’ve frightened you.”
shi yan waved her hand, and that person led the others to the side and stood beside tong yan.
“As expected of the fifth brother, even with the old master’s help, he couldn’t be trapped for long. He came so quickly.”
“second master jiang spent so much effort and risked offending fifth master jiang just to see me. it shouldn’t be just to say this, right?”
“If you have something to say, you can say it all at once. Fifth Lord Jiang and I are here for a vacation. We don’t want anyone to come and disturb us every other day.”
“it’s too noisy here, why don’t we find a quiet place to sit down and talk?”
“no need. let’s talk here,” shi yan refused. jiang che will be here soon. he said he’ll pick me up here, i don’t want him to waste his time picking me up from another place.”
“miss shi is really attentive to fifth brother. If that’s the case, then let’s talk here.”
“Actually, there’s nothing urgent for me to see miss Shi. I just heard that you’re with fifth brother and that he’s already met the Shi family, who are your elders. as fifth brother’s family, our jiang family can’t be too impolite. it’s only right that we send an elder to formally meet you.”
“It’s a pity that fifth brother is protecting you so well that it’s difficult to even see you.”
“Because of the misunderstanding between Fifth brother and the family, miss Shi also has some misunderstandings about us. She knows that you don’t want to see us, so she sent someone to invite you to see us.”
“in the end, it’s our jiang family’s fault.”
His face was full of sincerity, and it seemed like he really was.
shi yan watched him calmly and waited for him to finish.
it was rather casual.
“You’re here to meet me officially as an elder?”
Shi Yan chuckled and said,”speaking of the Jiang family’s elders, two of them came to Haicheng to see me.” one was the jiang family’s great-aunt, the other was the jiang family’s aunt, and now they were meeting the jiang family’s second master. unfortunately, whether it’s them or the jiang family’s second master, the way they came to meet people was not considered impolite.”
they’re either blocking the way or surrounding us. The Jiang family is a great aristocratic family, after all. This so-called courtesy is really not flattering.
“if you’re really interested in visiting, you can send an invitation to the shi family or the su family in haicheng. my parents are at the su family’s house now. even if it doesn’t work, you can send an invitation to the jiang family in haicheng. the fifth lord and i are currently living there.”
whenever second master Jiang sends me an invitation, I still have basic etiquette. I won’t be so impolite as to refuse an invitation from Jiang Che’s elder. I won’t go to the extent of second master Jiang taking the trouble to block me here.
” from the looks of it, the jiang family’s second master spent so much effort to come here. was it really to see me as jiang che’s elder? ”
Without waiting for Jiang Zhe’s reply, Shi Yan said, ” “i don’t think so.”
“Second master Jiang must have known how much fifth master Jiang valued me and wanted to use me as a bargaining chip to threaten him.”
“it’s a pity that second master jiang has overestimated himself and underestimated me.”
” actually, the jiang family’s third young master knows a little about my background. second master jiang should have asked the jiang family’s third young master about my background before coming to find me. ”
“Huang ‘er?” jiang zhe furrowed his eyebrows.
“It seems that the Jiang family’s second master doesn’t know his son very well. you people of the jiang family are really strange. you don’t dare to go directly to fifth lord jiang, and all of you are staring at me. do i look like someone who can be easily manipulated?”
“I originally wanted to wait until the next time I accompanied fifth Lord Jiang back to the capital before going to meet you, but you just had to come to my door again and again to find trouble. What’s the point?”
Jiang Zhe’s heart skipped a beat when she met Shi Yan’s harmless, smiling eyes.”You’re so silly!”
miss Shi, you have a deep misunderstanding of the Jiang family. It’s understandable that you misunderstood my intentions. However, a criminal can still defend himself. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to convict me without giving me a chance to explain? ”
“i don’t really care if it’s suitable or not. since second master jiang is already here, why don’t you stay and be a guest for a few days?”
“Tong Yan, invite the second master of the Jiang family back to stay for a few days, and inform the third young master of the Jiang family. Zhenzhen, you should directly inform the old master of the Jiang family to come and get him.”
“Yes, young lady Yan!”
Tong Yan had been to the city of Qing for a long time. The people she had brought with her had all been through a lot in the city. They were all people who made a living on the edge of a knife. Their skills were far beyond that of ordinary bodyguards.
“Second master Jiang, sorry for the offense.” tong yan walked straight to jiang zhe.
“miss shi, what do you mean by this?”
shi yan ignored him.
since tong yan had received shi yan’s order to take action, jiang che’s men naturally could not stand aside and watch indifferently. they left two men to protect shi yan while the rest went to help.
the scene became chaotic again.
jiang zhe’s men had some skills, but jiang zhe himself didn’t have much combat power. even if he had some amateur skills, it was when he was young. jiang zhe was already 57 years old. if he were to really fight, he would probably hurt himself before the enemy.
so shi yan really couldn’t understand what these people of the jiang family were thinking. they didn’t have the slightest confidence and arrogantly came to find trouble. did they not consider the consequences?
No wonder the Jiang family was getting worse and worse without the fifth Lord.
Jiang Zhe probably had his late wife’s genes to thank for giving birth to children like Jiang Yu and Jiang Shasha.
he was quickly subdued.
“miss shi, aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to enter the jiang family in the future by doing this?”
“Why does she need to enter the Jiang family?” a clear voice came.
There was less gentleness in her usual demeanor and a coldness that Shi Yan had never heard of before.
