Chapter 19 Breaking off the Engagement in Public
As soon as the words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent.
After hearing what Xi Chuan said, everyone thought Jiang Xu loved him very much.
This is another tragic love story in which she loves him, he loves her, and she loves him.
As a result, it now seems that Miss Jiang and he are not familiar with each other at all!
Brother, who are you?
Everyone's gaze paused, and then they all looked at Xi Chuan.
A playful gaze fell on him, and Xi Chuan felt as if he had been slapped hard in public, his face burning.
His expression twisted for a moment and he gritted his teeth.
"Playing hard to get, huh? I'm telling you, it's useless!"
"I'm making it clear today, don't try to kidnap me with an engagement.
Although your Jiang family and our Xi family have arranged a marriage, the one I like is Ruoning, and I will marry her in this life!"
"My engagement with you is void!"
Is this a public breakup?
The people around took a deep breath.
Regardless of how the three of them were entangled, breaking off the engagement in public on such an occasion would be like stepping on Jiang Xu's face.
Everyone started talking among themselves.
"Brother Xichuan..."
Ruan Ruoning lowered her head, looking embarrassed and reluctant.
However, there was a hint of pride in his lowered eyes.
Jiang Xu, ah Jiang Xu, it’s too early to be proud.
You have offended so many people and your engagement was broken off in public. Where will you put your face from now on?
"What kind of child marriage is this? How come I don't know about it?"
At this time, Zhang Lin and Jiang Wenhai came over.
Zhang Lin has a mild temper, but his face turned cold at this moment.
"ah--"
As if she had found it in that memory, she sneered, "It was just a joke at the time. Mrs. Xi wouldn't really take it seriously, would she?"
"Children have their own marriage and destiny. How can we adults decide that?"
"Besides, to be honest, the one who made the engagement with us was Xi Sinian, the eldest son of the Xi family. When did it become your turn, Xi Chuan?"
Mrs. Xi was married for the second time. The Xi family originally had an eldest son, Xi Sinian, but he became stupid and foolish after a fever.
Back then, she seized this opportunity and took Xi Chuan with her to force the emperor to take the throne.
After so many years, she had long forgotten about this matter and regarded herself as the orthodox Mrs. Xi.
Being suddenly brought up, Mrs. Xi's eyes turned red with anger.
"you……"
Zhang Lin was not afraid of her at all and looked directly at her.
Jiang Wenhai sneered: "Besides, since Xi Chuan and Ruoning are so in love, why don't you hold a party yourself?"
Jiang Wenhai did not hide his words.
He almost pointed at the Xi family's faces and cursed them.
I take myself very seriously.
No matter what, they held a banquet for Jiang Xu, and you are here singing and dancing.
how?
Don’t you have money to host your own party?
Mrs. Xi understood and her face flushed red.
Ever since she became Mrs. Xi, she has been well-served for so many years and has never been treated humiliated like this.
Xi Chuan's face turned pale and red.
"You can get married if you want, but I'm warning you—Ruoning is not only my girlfriend, but also my savior.
Back then, she risked her life to carry me out of the fire. Just for this reason, if you dare to bully her again, I, Xi Chuan, will never let you go! "
Jiang Xu: ...
Brother, who are you?
When will you let me go?
So ordinary, yet so confident.
and……
"Ruan Ruoning, saved you? Are you sure she is your savior? Not..."
As she spoke, she looked at Ruan Ruoning with a pair of calm eyes.
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to Ruan Ruoning.
This is the rhythm of another melon!
Ruan Ruoning's eyebrows twitched and her heart was pounding with fear.
No, it's impossible.
After knowing Jiang Xu's ability, her father immediately asked a master to cover up her face so that Jiang Xu would not be able to see anything.
Ruan Ruoning calmed down and her eyes suddenly became tearful.
"Sister, I didn't..."
"That's enough!"
Xi Chuan's face darkened: "What's going on with Guan Ruoning? If you're unhappy about what happened today, come to me!"
Jiang Xu's face was expressionless. He simply said, "During the fire that year, you took cold medicine and fell asleep. By the time you realized it, the fire was already very big."
Hearing this, Xi Chuan's expression froze and he was secretly surprised.
Ordinary people only know that Ruan Ruoning rescued themselves.
How does she know so many details?
Xi Chuan actually slept very lightly, but because the medicine he took that day contained sleeping pills, he didn't notice the fire.
If it weren't for Ruoning...
Jiang Xu chuckled when he heard this.
"Have you ever thought about what kind of drug could make you sleep so soundly? It's obvious that someone deliberately put sleeping pills in your milk."
Everyone:? ? !
Everyone has heard about the fire that happened to the Xi family.
But being drugged?
Is there something hidden behind the accident?
Xi Chuan:?
What's the meaning?
A hint of panic flashed across Ruan Ruoning's eyes.
How did she figure that out!
Her father clearly asked someone to cover her face, how could she see it!
Xi Chuan was a little confused and subconsciously held Ruoning's hand, but found that her palm was wet.
He looked stunned.
Jiang Xu narrowed his eyes and said, "Back then, a kindhearted person was passing by, noticed the fire, and came in to save you. You fainted on the ground, and it was she who carried you out."
"At that time, her hands were burned. Did Ruan Ruoning have the same burns on her hands?"
Xi Chuan's pupils trembled violently.
How come she even knows this!
At that time, when he was confused, there was indeed someone who helped him block it.
Later, he looked at Ruan Ruoning's wrist and found nothing there, so he thought he had remembered it wrong.
But now Jiang Xu mentioned it.
Could it be...
Xi Chuan felt a chill on his back.
Is it really as Jiang Xu said?
Have I repaid the wrong person for all these years of kindness?
What he thought of, everyone else thought of as well, and they looked at each other in surprise.
The gaze that fell on Ruan Ruoning also became subtle.
Jiang Chen and Jiang Yue's expressions were particularly shocked.
No way.
They no longer hate Jiang Xu these days, but Ruan Ruoning still has a place in their hearts.
Ruan Ruoning always showed her gentle and kind side in front of them.
But now...
They suddenly felt that they didn't know her anymore.
Facing everyone's scrutiny and inquiring gazes, Ruan Ruoning's face turned pale and the corners of his lips trembled in grievance.
There was a moment of water in his eyes.
"Sister, if you like Brother Xichuan, I'll give him to you... You don't have to slander me like that... You said it wasn't me, then who saved Brother Xichuan?"
She thought Jiang Xu had discovered something, but unexpectedly, she overestimated her.
It was she who saved Xi Chuan that day, who else could it be?
"I repeat, I never pick up men from the garbage."
Jiang Xu glanced at her coldly.
At this time, Guan Xuejun, who had been silent all the time, walked to Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu glanced at her and said to Xi Chuan, "Watch carefully and see who saved you."
Guan Xuejun rolled up her sleeves.
On the fair wrist, a light red scar suddenly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
