Chapter 36: Chance Encounter (20 Diamonds + Update)
During the few hours that Chen Qing was in the waiting room, there was a small incident.
Jiang Jingyan accompanied Jiang Zhongyi to the tea garden to meet guests. During the casual chat, someone mentioned that he refuted Yan Baiqing on behalf of Tao Siran at the dinner party.
He said casually, "I treat Si Ran as my sister, so of course I have to protect her," which almost made Mr. Tao fall off the stage.
Tao Siran, who was behind the screen, heard every word. Even though he maintained his image, his expression was not good when he left.
Mrs. Chiang went to the countryside to do charity work in the afternoon. When she came back and heard about it, she was furious.
She first called Mrs. Tao back, calmed the Tao family down, and then came to arrest the man immediately.
Lian Zhuo went to the group on Jiang Jingyan's behalf and just got the news.
Jiang Jingyan hung up the phone and played with the phone between his fingers.
Chen Qing was worried and wanted to get up, but was restrained.
"You..." She pushed, "Let me go, I have to go."
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going back to school."
Just as he finished speaking, Lian Zhuo called again, "Mrs. Jiang is downstairs at the hotel."
So fast...
Jiang Jingyan let go of his hand and said, "Let's go to the bedroom."
Chen Qing widened his eyes.
"Go into the bathroom and be quiet."
Her mind was in a mess and she could only listen to him.
In just three minutes, Mrs. Jiang arrived at the door.
She asked the staff to swipe her card and walked in angrily.
"Explain." Mrs. Jiang blushed with anger, her arrogance even stronger. "What nonsense are you saying in front of so many people?"
Jiang Jingyan was calm and composed, crossing his legs, "Tell the truth."
"fart!"
"Are you not elegant anymore?"
Mrs. Jiang paced back and forth, looked in the right direction, and headed straight for the bedroom door.
Jiang Jingyan stared at her back, his brows gloomy and his tone gloomy, "I haven't even started to question the Tao family yet, and you're here first."
Mrs. Jiang was only one step away from the bedroom door. She frowned and turned back, "What crime are you asking about?"
"Didn't Miss Tao mention it?" Jiang Jingyan rubbed his neck, lazily and uninhibitedly, "She checked my whereabouts."
Mrs. Jiang's brows tightened. "She checked on you?"
"You asked me to meet her, and I did. We got along, and I listened to you. Things haven't been finalized yet. Miss Tao has asked about my schedule more than once. I said that treating her like a younger sister is already giving face to the Tao family."
Madame Jiang was skeptical and turned towards the sofa. "Is it because of this?"
"The first time, she tried to bribe my driver. The second time, she bribed the dinner staff and mistook my senior's woman for mine. She blatantly went to make things difficult for me. The third time, she followed me to the airport to see that kid Tang Xiaoming off. Tell me, can I keep her by my side?"
Jiang Jingyan said this without changing his expression.
He knew Mrs. Jiang's thoughts very well, and he knew that the future Mrs. Jiang must be a capable and virtuous wife.
Be considerate to your husband and manage his social life.
People like Tao Siran who cause trouble out of suspicion are petty and cannot be used in important situations.
"Even if Si Ran was overly cautious, it was your fault first!" Mrs. Jiang dropped her purse and plopped down on the sofa. "If you were clean outside, would she do this?"
Jiang Jingyan knocked on the armrest, "We haven't even started yet, how can you and father control me? Who is she, Tao Siran?"
"You're such a good son! You said it so beautifully, and embarrassed your father in front of Lao Tao!"
"If I continue to be vague, Miss Tao might do something absurd. She won't be able to find me, and what if she sends someone to follow you or father?"
"Nonsense!" Mrs. Jiang cursed, but she was unsure.
A few years ago, Jiang Jingyan had a crazy pursuer in Zhounan. He did chase her to the Jiang family and secretly followed Mrs. Jiang's car. At that time, she accompanied Jiang Zhongyi on a business trip to a meeting and thought she was a spy.
The police took the girl in for questioning and found out the truth.
Jiang Zhongyi lost his temper. From this perspective, Jiang Jingyan's concerns were understandable.
He is no longer in the army, but his whereabouts are still confidential.
Mrs. Jiang's expression softened a bit. "Even so, can't you just talk to her nicely?" She suddenly became alert. "You're not making up some nonsense, are you?"
Chen Qing’s lips were almost bitten in the bedroom.
Separated by a door, the two people's voices were getting louder and louder, and it was hard for her not to hear.
After Mrs. Jiang finished asking, Jiang Jingyan smiled and said, "The driver and the banquet staff are all witnesses. You can go and interrogate them."
"Don't bluff me, you've arranged everything."
"You came so quickly." Jiang Jingyan narrowed his eyes. "I'm here, and no one knows except Tang Xiaoming."
Mrs. Jiang choked and fell silent.
She did learn from Tao Siran's crying that Jiang Jingyan was in the hotel.
However, she found the location of the hotel herself.
Being used as a pawn by Tao Siran, Mrs. Jiang's face turned red and white.
She stood up angrily and said, "I am so sinful to have a son like you!"
Jiang Jingyan didn't say anything, just closed his eyes and rested his head on the back of the sofa.
Mrs. Jiang took two steps and turned back, "What are you still doing here?"
"Pure."
She stood still.
Jiang Jingyan stood up impatiently and said, "If you are worried, search it if you want."
Chen Qing hurriedly hid back in the bathroom, huddled beside the sink, and squatted in a dead corner.
Jiang Jingyan kicked open the bedroom door, walked in, and unbuttoned his shirt and belt.
Make a gesture as if you want to take a shower and rest.
Mrs. Jiang looked around a few times but saw nothing.
She knew Jiang Jingyan's temper well, so she didn't want to really search him. However, she couldn't bring herself to do it, so she ordered bluntly, "Come home with me and explain to your father yourself."
…
Mrs. Jiang took Jiang Jingyan downstairs and walked through the lobby. For some reason, she looked in the direction of the surveillance camera.
"Wait for me in the car."
Jiang Jingyan lowered his eyes, stared at her for two or three seconds, then turned and left.
Mrs. Jiang called the lobby manager and asked, "Get me the surveillance footage for tonight."
Just as the manager was about to explain, a group of people came in.
"Mrs. Jiang?"
Mrs. Jiang suppressed her emotions and said calmly, "It's Bai Qing."
Yan Baiqing nodded, "You are here..."
"Come to pick up a friend, how about you?"
"Some of my grandparents are here for business. They're taking a flight early tomorrow morning, and my mother asked me to entertain them."
This hotel is the closest five-star hotel to the airport, so it is inevitable to run into it here.
Mrs. Jiang didn't want to expose the "family scandal", so she gave up and said, "Then I'll go first."
Yan Baiqing watched her leave, and after settling the elders, he went down to the basement.
About twenty minutes later, Lian Zhuo appeared with a woman.
