They had heard about the Jiang family's affairs and that Jiang Yuan was currently staying in a hotel.
She wasn't exactly destitute, but she probably didn't have the capital or the ability to start a business either.
Xiao Yong'an was also stunned.
Jiang Yuan wants to discuss business with her?
His family just runs a courier shop.
"Mr. Xiao, do you have some time now?" Jiang Yuan ignored Xu Zhe's sarcasm and looked at Xiao Yong'an seriously with her dark eyes as she asked.
"Jiang Yuan, Xiao Yong'an is talking business with me right now. He doesn't have time to talk to you." Seeing that Jiang Yuan was ignoring him, Xu Zhe stood in front of Jiang Yuan and Xiao Yong'an and said coldly.
“There’s a proper order to things. We were the ones who talked first. You can’t just stop us halfway through, can you?” Xu Zhe continued, looking at Jiang Yuan with amusement.
"Really? Mr. Xiao, are you doing business with them?" Jiang Yuan turned her head, looked at Xiao Yong'an through Xu Zhe, and asked calmly.
“No, no, they’ve already rejected me, and I don’t want to talk to them anymore,” Xiao Yong’an shook his head and said.
Jiang Yuan squinted and smiled gently.
Xu Zhe and the others' faces suddenly turned gloomy.
"Xiao Yong'an, what are you saying? What right do you have to refuse us?" Hanwen grabbed Xiao Yong'an's hair, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
Jiang Yuan rejected them, but what right did Xiao Yong'an have to do so?
How dare a mere small courier workshop challenge them?
If they hadn't suggested that Jiang Yusiqing's old classmates come, he would have really thought he was qualified to attend such a high-class banquet.
"Let go." Before Xiao Yong'an could speak, Jiang Yuan spoke first, her voice icy.
"Let go? Why should I?" Hanwen looked up at Jiang Yuan, their eyes meeting.
"Because I am also the host of this banquet."
"Don't forget, this isn't just Jiang Yusi's birthday, it's mine too. I'm celebrating my birthday with her."
"You are a guest, and he is also my guest."
"You treat my guests like this, be careful... I'll have you thrown out."
"Do you think we'll become a laughing stock in H City then?"
Jiang Yuan's gaze was firm as she spoke in a cold voice.
The guests were surprised.
Now they were certain that Jiang Yuan and Xu Zhe and the others were not friends, and that everything Xu Zhe and the others had said before was a lie.
Even Jiang Yusi turned a blind eye to this, but Jiang Yuan rushed forward directly.
Her direct confrontation with Xu Zhe and his group indicates that she is prepared to turn against them.
Xiao Yong'an looked at Jiang Yuan with gratitude, his eyes reddening.
He realized that Jiang Yuan must have deliberately made up an excuse to save him!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yong'an felt even more guilty.
When he saw Jiang Yuan being bullied, he turned and left, but when Jiang Yuan saw him being bullied, she bravely rushed up to him.
"Let go!" Jiang Yuan's cold gaze fell on Han Wen's hand that was pulling Xiao Yong'an's hair, and her voice turned colder.
For some reason, Hanwen was intimidated and actually let go of his hand.
Jiang Yuan strode up to Xiao Yong'an and asked with concern, "Are you able to walk?"
Xiao Yong'an nodded.
"Come with me," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he turned and left.
Without a second thought, Xiao Yong'an followed them, leaving Xu Zhe and the others to watch them leave.
Jiang Yusi, who was chatting with her friend, noticed the commotion and was about to go over when a voice sounded behind her.
"Your friends are all scoundrels. Hanging out with them will only get you killed sooner or later."
"Even if they are the young masters of the Xu and Han families, they are no exception."
Jiang Yuanhao stood behind Jiang Yusi.
Jiang Yusi stopped and turned to look at Jiang Yuanhao.
"Brother, what do you mean by that?" Jiang Yusi asked, her tone full of dissatisfaction.
Jiang Yuanhao hadn't said anything when she associated with Wang Jiujiu and the others before, but now he's saying they'll harm her.
Jiang Yuanhao's words made it clear that he wanted her to cut off all contact and sever ties with them!
Not only Wang Jiujiu, but also Xu Zhe and the others!
"What I mean is you'd better not get too close to them. One or two of them are wicked and only think about relying on men and taking shortcuts. They can betray their best friends for money and men, and just like that... one day they can betray you."
"Those two women are no good either, they're filthy."
When Wang Jiujiu and Wen Yi were mentioned, Jiang Yuanhao's face showed obvious disdain.
The thought of shaking hands with them made him want to wash his hands several times.
Jiang Yusi's expression changed slightly as she recalled the scene of Jiang Ningyuan, Ji Lü, and the others surrounding Jiang Yuan.
She claims to be friends with those people in the industry, but in reality, they can turn on her for a role. She pretends to be friendly with them, so they can hardly be considered friends.
Wang Jiujiu and the others?
Although he was greedy, he was subordinate to her, listened to her, and knew her true character.
If she distances herself from them, then she...
He had no friends and no errand runners.
Jiang Yuan, however, was surrounded by a group of people.
They seemed to be unconsciously moving closer to Jiang Yuan.
How could she be willing to be outshone by Jiang Yuan?
Even if she's faking it, she has to create the illusion that she has a lot of friends around her!
"Brother, I'm an adult now. Whether or not someone is suitable to be my friend is my own judgment."
"Thanks for reminding me, but... don't let their appearance fool you, they're actually not bad at heart."
"Moreover, they will not betray me or sell me out."
Jiang Yusi looked up, met Jiang Yuanhao's gaze, and said firmly.
Wang Jiujiu and the others won't be betrayed by her, if they were...
She'll take care of them herself!
"I hope it really won't happen." Seeing that Jiang Yusi didn't appreciate his words, Jiang Yuanhao didn't try to persuade her any further.
