Chapter 142: Meet the Elders
It was exactly as Jiang Wanning guessed.
At this time, the living room inside the red door of the Xie family was already filled with his aunts and uncles.
Everyone's attention was now focused on the black-painted Hongqi sedan in front of the door.
If you look closely, you will find that the people here are all top-notch and well-known political figures in the country.
But no one dared to face Xie Yanchuan head-on.
That's why everyone resorted to this desperate measure. They wanted to see what kind of abilities the person who was brought home by Xie Yanchuan with such fanfare had.
However, they didn't expect that just the latter's humble attitude would make everyone drop their jaws in shock.
Outsiders may not know this, but the people within the Xie family had dealt with Xie Yanchuan many times when he was competing for the position of family heir.
He knew that although this guy was young, he was so fierce and crazy that he looked down on everyone present.
Although he has become more restrained and steady in recent years, looking at the entire Xie family at that time, apart from the old man, there was probably no one else who could be taken seriously.
Now that he has gradually gained power in recent years, I am afraid that even the old man may not be able to say a few words in front of him.
But it is precisely such a crazy person who is now willing to pave the way for the woman in the car and clear all obstacles.
Who was that person, and what was her beauty? Why was it worthy for Xie Yanchuan to go to such lengths for her?
At this moment, almost everyone present held their breath, watching as a slender, white arm like jade stretched out from the black car and gently rested on Xie Yanchuan's arm.
Immediately afterwards, everyone was stunned.
Jiang Wanning is indeed very beautiful today. She is wearing a red velvet high-necked long dress, paired with her carefully groomed black curly hair like seaweed. She looks simple yet bold.
Just standing there, she was like a delicate rose, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her, yet exuding an inexplicably dangerous aura.
But what stunned everyone was not that she was beautiful enough.
After all, these people in the Xie family have seen all kinds of beauties.
What really surprised everyone was that she and Meng Zhenyue had almost identical faces.
Although Meng Zhenyue has been well protected by Mr. Xie over the years, she has rarely appeared on the big screen outside.
But as members of the Xie family, they had naturally seen the so-called "fiancée of the future heir of the Xie family."
"this......!?"
There was such silence for a while, and then someone in the crowd exclaimed, which brought everyone back to their dazed state.
"Is Yanchuan trying to make fun of us?"
The person who asked this question was Xie Yanchuan's sixth uncle Xie Yaowen.
Before, he was guarding Mr. Xie in the old house, and today he came to take a look on behalf of the latter.
When he spoke, an elderly woman sitting in the corner of the living room sneered, "Yan Chuan is still young. He made such a big scene, only to bring back a 'stand-in'. Is he clearly trying to piss off the old man?"
This time it was Xie Xiwen, Xie Yanchuan's second aunt, who spoke. As soon as she finished speaking, her third aunt on the other side also joined in with a smile: "Second sister, what you said is not right."
"Yan Chuan is the heir chosen by the old man. To put it bluntly, the Xie family will be his sooner or later. Why would he bother to go against the old man and make things difficult for himself?"
Unlike the second aunt Xie Xiwen who was mature and intellectual, the third aunt Xie Yuewen had a typical bright and generous appearance. She was also the one who looked most similar to Xie Yanchuan among everyone present.
If Xu Moli was present at this moment, she would definitely recognize her. She is a famous top female artist in the entertainment industry who has won many gold awards for film and television works.
Now that she had said this, she naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of everyone.
After all, Xie Yanchuan, the so-called heir, was directly selected without considering their second and third generations. Although no one showed it on their faces, they were actually holding their breath in their hearts.
At this time, they felt a little regretful that they had not encouraged the old man to come and see this "good show" today.
......
On the other side, Jiang Wanning had no idea what the people in the room were talking about her.
She was in the car, and after just one glance at Xie Yanchuan's outstretched arm, she calmly raised her hand and put it on top.
The whole person's movements were done in one go, and even the expression on his face did not change for a moment.
Even the driver who was "bribed" by the relatives in the beginning couldn't help but take another look at her in the dark corner.
The driver has achieved his current position in the Xie family, and he is almost one of the elders who watched Xie Yanchuan grow up.
Naturally, he had had a few rare contacts with Xie Yanchuan's fiancée Meng Zhenyue.
So the driver noticed that Jiang Wanning looked very similar to the man when he first went to pick him up.
Of course, the doubts that arose in his mind at that moment were exactly the same as those in the room.
This made him a little confused as to the significance of Xie Yanchuan's action. Until this moment, he saw Jiang Wanning get out of the car with his own eyes.
It took only a moment for the driver to finally understand Xie Yanchuan's persistence.
These are two completely different people.
Jiang Wanning and Meng Zhenyue have two exactly the same faces, but the souls contained in these shells are completely different.
The former got out of the car, and the moment he raised his eyes, the emotion in his eyes was dangerous, firm, and tinged with a hint of danger.
She was not at all nervous, as if she was born to be in a superior position and being "served" so respectfully was a common occurrence for her.
This is a posture that the "fiancée" will never be able to show.
In just this moment, Meng Zhenyue was completely defeated.
Jiang Wanning may be different from those "little white flowers" who need men to care for them. She is a "black rose" who can truly stand shoulder to shoulder with a "poisonous snake" like Xie Yanchuan.
Xie Yanchuan, who was standing next to him, seemed to have noticed the driver's mood and gave him an extra look as he passed by.
With Xie Yanchuan's intelligence, he could naturally guess that the driver in front of him, who had worked in the Xie family for almost half his life, could not have been simply instructed by those people in the house.
After all, they don't have that much power to make this person dare to go against them.
The real mastermind behind this is most likely the old man of the Xie family.
Thinking of this, Xie Yanchuan smiled indifferently for a moment, then he lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Wanning, who was standing beside him with the same determined look.
"Let's go, Ningning."
"Um."
"Go meet these elders."
