Chapter 147: Playing by the rules



Chapter 147: Unconventional Play

Xie Yanchuan did know something about Jiang Wanning.

This red dress was exactly what she wanted.

After making a clear choice, she took the clothes and tried on the size again.

The dress, which almost no one had ever worn, now seemed to be tailor-made for Jiang Wanning. It fit her perfectly, making everyone present's eyes light up.

"Oh my god, it's so beautiful!"

"Mr. Xie really has great taste. This dress looks like it was tailor-made for Ms. Jiang!"

Amidst the praises from the many staff present, only Yue Lin, standing in the corner, seemed to have a thoughtful look on her face.

Because she suddenly remembered that when she first met Xie Yanchuan, he had just graduated from college. When he took over this clothing store, the first piece of clothing he bought seemed to be this red dress.

Yue Lin was puzzled at the time and seemed to have questioned the other party: "This dress is so small and the design is so exaggerated. You are Mr. Xie, a businessman. Who would wear a dress like this?"

Yue Lin still remembers that the young man, with a stern look on his face, was silent for a rare moment, as if she had touched upon something in his heart.

Xie Yanchuan did not give an answer at that time, but Yue Lin seemed to know the result at this moment.

So before the two of them chose their clothes and left, she sincerely wished: "Ms. Jiang, you and Mr. Xie, I hope your relationship will last forever."

After all, the young man she watched grow up seemed to have suffered too much over the years and was too lonely.

In front of the bridal shop, the winter wind seemed to ruffle Jiang Wanning's black hair. Jiang Wanning turned around at the sound, her eyes shining like the warm sun: "Of course, thank you for your auspicious words, Sister Yue Lin."

She seemed to be speaking politely, but at this moment her fingertips lightly touched the hand of the man next to her.

At least at this moment, under the setting sun, their shadows are holding hands together.

......

Jiang Wanning and her friends had chosen their clothes, and they were one step closer to the date for the engagement party.

Seeing that it was already evening after all the busy work, Jiang Wanning took out her cell phone and prepared to ask her two brothers if they had finished their work so that they could have dinner together in the evening to discuss the details of the engagement party at the weekend.

After all, her parents were not there, so Jiang Wenzhou and Jiang Qingyan became the indispensable hosts of the banquet.

It happened that the two of them arrived at the nearest shopping mall. Xie Yanchuan went to park the car, and Jiang Wanning opened WeChat. When she was about to send a message to her elder brother and the others, an unfamiliar text message popped up on her own phone.

As the "Ding Dong" prompt sounded, Jiang Wanning narrowed her eyes slightly.

Her hand paused as she was about to send a message to Jiang Wenzhou, and instead clicked on the unfamiliar message.

[Jiang Wanning, I know you've returned from Xingguo and are in Beijing. Let's meet at the café on C Street in the central city at 2:00 PM tomorrow. I can tell you some unknown secrets about Xie Yanchuan.]

Straightforward, yet seemingly thoughtless tone.

Jiang Wanning guessed almost immediately that the person who sent her the text message was Meng Zhenyue.

How boring.

She curled her lips, then replied a message and directly blocked the one-stop service, just like how she deleted all the chat methods at the beginning, very neatly and without leaving any room for the other party to operate.

On the other side, Meng Zhenyue also opened Jiang Wanning's reply letter with some excitement. In her seemingly innocent eyes, a look of resentment flashed across her at that moment.

It was not until she clearly read the content of the message sent by Jiang Wanning that she was completely stunned.

Jiang Wanning: [Thank you, but if I want to know something, I can just ask Xie Yanchuan directly. You don't need to worry about it.]

"No...why...didn't she do what I asked!?"

Jiang Wanning did not play by the rules, completely disrupting all of Meng Zhenyue's initial plans.

She looked at the lines of text on the phone repeatedly in disbelief, and then anxiously wanted to send another message to the other party.

But what awaited her was the bad news that she was blocked.

There was a loud "bang!"

When Meng Zhenyue, who was almost annihilated by anger, came to his senses, he had already thrown the phone in his hand away.

She was furious, and the emotions in her eyes became crazy and even vicious at this moment.

"Jiang Wanning, I'm giving you a chance!"

"...It's all because you didn't fight for it. If that's the case, don't blame me!"

Meng Zhenyue was not the only one who was almost as angry as to throw her phone.

In the intensive care unit of Beijing First People's Hospital, a middle-aged man who looked almost 70% like Xie Yanchuan was staring at his broken cell phone on the wall opposite him with some anger.

"Old Five, this is a ward. There's nothing wrong, so why are you making such a fuss?"

Xie Kaiwen seemed to take a breath for a while before looking at Mr. Xie on the hospital bed in front of him with some disbelief. He was obviously thinner than before.

"Grandfather, you heard what my eldest brother said just now, didn't you?"

"That brat Yan Chuan was determined to offend you by marrying that Jiang girl. How could he do such a treasonous thing? He's not sincere... He's pissed me off!"

Xie Kaiwen stopped himself from saying the outrageous words that were about to come out of his mouth. It was obvious that he was the biological father of Xie Yanchuan, the fifth child in the Xie family as mentioned by the eldest uncle of the Xie family.

Before Xie Yanchuan made some shocking remarks in the Xie family's old house, the shrewd people present did not dare to inform Mr. Xie directly, but chose to inform Xie Kevin who was accompanying the old man in a roundabout way.

This is how the scene just now happened.

But compared to Xie Kaiwen's anger, Mr. Xie was unusually calm: "I'm not deaf, of course I heard it."

He even raised his old eyelids slightly, but in his cloudy and old eyeballs, there was a gleam of light that others could not understand.

Xie Kaiwen was a little incredulous: "Then you, you're not angry?"

"You taught my son well."

Old Master Xie rolled his eyes at Xie Kaiwen as if he were an idiot.

"He's already done this. What's the point of me getting angry? Isn't it still irreparable?"

Xie Kaiwen was even more stunned: "Then, then you are not really going to listen to that rebellious son and attend that engagement party, right?"

“…” It seemed like for a moment, Mr. Xie was completely speechless towards Kevin Xie.

How could such a shrewd bloodline give birth to such a stupid guy? "Xie Kaiwen, sometimes I really want to pry open your brain and see what's inside. Is it true that apart from women and money, nothing else can enter your eyes?"

"Xie Yanchuan is the heir of the Xie family. He's getting married, such a big thing. If you and I don't go, what will outsiders think? Are you really going to let a young boy like him have the final say?"

"I'm half buried in the ground. Are you planning to go with me?"
