Chapter 149 Be careful
Xie Yanchuan felt a little puzzled when he met Jiang Wanning's somewhat resentful look.
But before he could open his mouth, Jiang Wanning raised her hand to interrupt him.
However, she was in a foreign country and couldn't tell Su Xu directly about her parents. She could only explain to him briefly, "I'm fine, Xu."
"It's true that marrying Xie Yanchuan was a bit sudden, but there are reasons for it. I can't tell you too much right now. How is your uncle's health recovering?"
It can be said that Su Xu is worthy of being Jiang Wanning’s best friend for so many years.
However, after just a few words from her, Su Xu quickly understood what she meant and gradually calmed down from his shock: "My dad can eat and drink now, just like nothing happened."
"Speaking of this, I really need to pay more attention to Sister Nanxi. I really didn't know she was so powerful before!"
"It's really thanks to her presence this time. Otherwise, given my dad's condition, I'm afraid he might not even be able to wake up now."
"I'm glad that uncle is okay." Jiang Wanning responded, and at the same time she was thinking about telling Su Xu briefly what she had seen from Xie Yanchuan about Ai Heng two days ago.
"Xie Yanchuan and I's engagement party is this weekend, three days from now. You might not be able to make it back. Keep an eye out for Pei Yufeng over there. I'm afraid he'll continue to attack my uncle in secret."
Hearing Jiang Wanning's serious tone, Su Xu finally couldn't say the words that were on the tip of his tongue, that he must rush to attend Jiang Wanning's engagement party.
The emotion of rejection that had been brewing in her heart finally got stuck in her throat, and she became silent: "Okay, I promise you."
"Since you're only engaged this time, I'll let you go. But if you don't notify me first before you get married, I'll completely remove you from the list of the eldest daughter-in-law!"
Listening to Su Xu's threat, Jiang Wanning smiled helplessly: "Okay, I understand."
"Now Xie Yanchuan and I are only engaged, and nothing else is planned yet. If things really get to that point, you don't need to tell me, I will definitely be the first to inform you."
"That's pretty good." Su Xu was barely satisfied after hearing this.
The two chatted briefly about other things, and just before hanging up, Su Xu said seriously, "Ningning, I don't know what happened to you, but I know you must have your reasons for doing this."
"I can't help you much in Xingguo right now, so you must be careful in everything you do."
Jiang Wanning didn't expect that Su Xu, who was always carefree and even a little heartless, would suddenly say such words to her.
She was a little surprised, but a flash of warmth flashed through her heart: "I know, you too."
…
In order to avoid being seen, Jiang Wanning deliberately found a secluded place in the mall when she was talking to Su Xu on the phone.
When she finally finished talking with Su Xu and returned to the mall, Xie Yanchuan had already chosen a place to eat and ordered the dishes.
There was still a table full of Jiang Wanning’s favorite dishes.
Coincidentally, she had just returned when Jiang Wenzhou and Jiang Qingyan walked into the restaurant almost at the same time.
The situation at Jiang's headquarters seemed to be much more difficult than the two brothers had imagined.
However, after only being apart for half a day, Jiang Wanning already felt that both of them seemed to have grown much older.
The waiter happened to bring a pot of hot tea. While Xie Yanchuan was refilling the water, he seemed to be hesitant to speak: "Big brother, second brother."
"If there's anything I can help you with at the company, just let me know."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenzhou couldn't help but look at Jiang Qingyan, who was still taciturn beside him.
His always nonchalant eyes seemed to flash with helplessness for a moment: "Qing Yan and I appreciate your kindness, but things haven't come to this point yet."
"Don't worry, when the time comes, I won't be polite to you."
Jiang Wenzhou has become very smooth in the business circle over the years and is very good at saving face with others.
Now that he has spoken so frankly to Xie Yanchuan without any reservations, it seems that he has recognized him as one of his people.
In this case, Jiang Wanning saw that her elder brother was unwilling to talk too much about the company, so she simply tactfully stopped asking any further questions.
At the same time, she also took the tea that Xie Yanchuan poured and handed to her.
She was a little surprised that the tea turned out to be honey lemonade, which seemed to be the same one she had ordered from the hotel manager when she and Xie Yanchuan were at the Rufeng Hotel last time.
At that time, she seemed to be surprised and felt quite fond of it. She didn't expect that Xie Yanchuan would notice it and remember it until now.
Just as she was thinking this, Jiang Wanning saw Jiang Wenzhou sitting opposite her also took the water and took a sip.
The overly sweet and slightly sour taste made him frown in obvious discomfort, while he calmly put the cup aside.
Seeing this, Jiang Wanning's mind moved slightly, and she suddenly stood up. When they were having dinner together before, her eldest brother seemed to have clearly stated that he hated eating anything sour.
Before, Jiang Wanning always thought that Xie Yanchuan was a meticulous person who would always observe and grasp any tiny details.
But at this moment, she seemed to finally realize that Xie Yanchuan was not such a "flawless" person or even had some obsessive-compulsive disorder. It seemed that men only cared too much about things about themselves.
But before she could continue to notice anything was wrong, Jiang Wenzhou raised his hand and knocked on the table in front of him: "Let's talk about it now. The engagement party for you and Wan Ning this weekend is more important."
"After all, this may be a lifelong event. We, Wan Ning, will have to rely on you to take care of us in the future."
I don’t know if it was Jiang Wanning’s illusion.
It seemed that when my eldest brother said this, his tone was inexplicably ambiguous.
But my second brother, who had been silent since entering the room tonight, also spoke up at this rare moment: "Indeed, this matter concerns my little sister's future happiness, so it is indeed more important at the moment."
"Second brother." Jiang Wanning was surprised: "Why are you teasing me too?"
It was clear that what they had agreed upon before was just a marriage alliance, and after this crisis was over, it would depend on the situation whether to cancel it or not.
Why is it that the attitudes of these two brothers now seem to indicate that she is ready to spend the rest of her life with Xie Yanchuan?
It would be fine if my eldest brother Jiang Wenzhou just did this, but why is it that now even my second brother, who never likes to meddle in other people’s business, wants to get involved?
But Jiang Qingyan remained silent on this.
Fortunately, after Jiang Wenzhou teased his sister, he quickly got back to the point.
Xie Yanchuan also coughed lightly at the side: "Brother, I have almost prepared everything I need to prepare."
"I took Ningning to try on the dress she wanted today. Everything else will follow the previous plan. The only thing we need to confirm right now is whether you can be there that day."
