Chapter 2 Family Background

The next morning.

Jiang Tingwan opened her computer early to check the information of the major families. This time when she returned to China, she had to take on the important task of communicating with the major families and contacting possible marriage partners.

From the moment she entered the Jiang family, she knew that she could not freely choose her future partner. Maybe she would have a say among the candidates, but she would consider more about whether she could maximize the interests of the Jiang family.

Jiang Tingwan looked around while thinking.

When she came across the information of Lu Zhaoye, who she had just met last night, she was not unfamiliar with him. After all, he was close to Lu Yiqiao, so she knew this person.

The eldest son of the Lu family, a military and political family, with loving parents, was supposed to join the army for training according to convention, but his mother was reluctant to let him go, so his father had no choice but to keep Lu Zhaoye by his side.

Unexpectedly, this person actually secretly joined the army and was released only a few years ago. Now he is in charge of several technology companies.

Jiang Tingwan slid down again.

Shen Guan, 24 years old, the second son of the Shen family, is now in charge of most of the projects of the Shen Group and can be said to be the current person in charge of the Shen family. But she clearly remembered that it was his brother Shen Nianzhi who was in charge of the Shen Group a few years ago.

Jiang Tingwan thought about it for a while, and realized that he was the final winner of the internal strife in the Shen family four years ago.

Then think about how he sat in the corner last night, observing silently.

This guy really lives up to his name, he just sits on the sidelines and watches.

Jiang Tingwan continued to read at a glance. After a few days, she had a clear understanding of the backgrounds of most people.

Next up was the welcoming banquet, Jiang Tingwan rubbed his neck.

She has socialized a lot in the past few years abroad, but the social styles in China and foreign countries are different. What's more, the people in the circle are full of shrewd people, so she might not be able to deal with them.

-------------------------------------------

The crystal chandeliers in the banquet hall cast a warm golden glow, and the sound of clinking glasses floated in the air.

Amidst the elegant people, young men from aristocratic families gathered in twos and threes. Almost all the dignitaries in Kyoto were present, giving enough face to the adopted daughter of the Jiang family.

Some people are also curious about what kind of adopted daughter could make the Jiang family make such a big fuss.

Suddenly, the music paused, the lights dimmed for a moment, and then the spotlight fell on the platform on the second floor.

Jiang Tingwan stood there.

The one-shoulder white silk dress fell along her body like a waterfall of moonlight.

The fabric suddenly gathers at the waist, outlining a slender arc, and then spreads out smoothly at the hip line. Every step seems to be stepping on the viewer's heartbeat.

The hollow design on the back reveals a faint ridgeline, which glows delicately under the light.

The halo reflected her cold profile, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and she looked gentle and quiet.

She didn't wear anything fancy tonight and just a pair of earrings.

But the fact that the Jiang family arranged such a grand ceremony showed their extraordinary favor for her, and the simple and elegant attire she wore made her look somewhat otherworldly.

Her beauty is like warm jade, elegant and very friendly.

The whole room was silent for a moment.

She raised her eyes slightly, and the gaze under her long eyelashes was like still water running deep.

She was neither aloof nor fawning, but just calmly walked into the chess game of power set up for her.

The thoughtful gaze not far away paused on her, then he lowered his eyes and took a sip of the red wine in his hand.

It was indeed her.

After a brief self-introduction, Jiang Tingwan was also taken by Jiang's mother to start socializing.

I saw this young lady following the cold and elegant lady, and she kept a faint smile on her face despite many greetings.

She is elegant in her speech and manners, gentle and quiet, the type most loved by the elders in aristocratic families. Her every word and action is flawless.

"Aunt Shen, President Shen."

Jiang Tingwan raised the corner of her mouth into a perfect smile. Although it was the second time they met, she thought Shen Guan would not recognize her.

Tonight, Chen Guan wore a black suit, which showed his straight shoulders and the faint silver patterns added a touch of low-key luxury.

He had a calm demeanor, a natural air of dignity, and the corners of his lips had just the right curve, like a warm piece of jade.

Jiang Tingwan noticed, however, that there was a vague sense of alienation in the depths of his eyes.

"Ms. Jiang."

Chen Guan curled his lips slightly, picked up the wine glass, and gently clinked it with hers.

This guy must be a smiling tiger. Jiang Tingwan secretly complained in his heart, he was not in such a positive attitude last night.

This Aunt Shen is Shen Guan’s aunt.

It is said that in that fierce internal struggle, it was she who made a desperate effort to help Shen Guan, which enabled him to gain a firm foothold in the internal struggle of the Shen family.

"I didn't expect Wanwan to have grown so graceful in the blink of an eye."

Chen Xian smiled kindly, "If I remember correctly, you should be 22 years old this year, right? Do you plan to stay here and settle down?"

"Yes, auntie, you have a really good memory." Jiang Tingwan smiled gently and said softly, "This time when I come back, I don't plan to live outside for a long time."

Chen Xian nodded with satisfaction, then walked aside with Jiang's mother and talked in a low voice.

Jiang Tingwan knew in her heart that although Shen Guan was now in charge of the Shen Group, the side forces were still ready to make a move. If the Shen and Jiang families were to marry, it would undoubtedly make Shen Guan's position as the head of the Shen family more stable.

What's more, Jiang Tingwan knew that she was perfect in both manners and talent and cultivation, and any family who saw her would be fond of her.

"I wonder if Miss Jiang is still planning to roll the dice at her banquet tonight?"

A faint male voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Tingwan's ears, interrupting her thoughts.
