566 Returning home after many years
The next morning, in the study of the Xuan family.
the assistant came out of the study and carefully closed the door. the sound of things being smashed in the study made him shiver in fear.
just a few minutes ago, he had reported the news to xuan siyun.
it wasn’t anything special. it was just something xuan siyun asked him to investigate. what was the name of the shi family’s eldest daughter?
Unsurprisingly, it was the same name as the fifth Lord Jiang’s girlfriend.
Xuan Siyun still didn’t want to believe the results and asked her assistant to check again.
in the assistant’s eyes, this was self-deception.
For fear of being blamed, he didn’t dare to stay any longer and quickly left.
Just as he expected, Xuan Siyun’s anger exploded. Just from this sound, the study room must be in a mess.
just as the assistant had thought, xuan siyun’s study room was in shambles. xuan siyun threw herself on the floor to vent her anger before she fell back onto the sofa in a daze.
His expression was complicated.
there was shock and disbelief, as well as a deep sense of unease and panic.
after a moment of silence, she gritted her teeth and kicked the coffee table in front of her.
Smoke! Smoke!
the young lady of the shi family was really good at hiding! Which young miss of an aristocratic family like them didn’t grow up pampered? She, Shi Yan, was the exception! She did not think of Shi Yan as the young lady of the Shi family at all!
living alone in the countryside for many years?
the shi family’s method of toughening their juniors was truly extraordinary!
Yes, Xuan Siyun had never thought that Shi Yan had lived alone in the countryside since she was young because she had a conflict with her family. the entire shi family was harmonious. as the only girl in the third generation of the shi family, xuan siyun had never doubted the rumors that she was doted on by the entire shi family.
shi yan was already a threat to xuan siyun. in addition to her identity as the young lady of the shi family, she had been brought up in the shi family. she didn’t have much chance of winning.
But she couldn’t just give up like this!
in the past, it was for the sake of fifth lord jiang, but now it was not completely the case.
in the past, whenever a young lady from a prestigious family in the capital was mentioned, the first person that others would think of was definitely her. she had earned all of this by herself, and she would never allow herself to be under anyone!
it seemed that she would have to spend more effort on befriending the master behind yanyun.
thinking of this, xuan siyun called her assistant, ” ” prepare a generous gift. i want to meet the owner of yanyun before the banquet begins! ”
Yingluo is the eldest young lady, and Yanyun Manor never receives guests. Isn’t it inappropriate for us to visit her now? ”
The assistant wanted to say that the banquet at Yanyun Manor was tomorrow, and they were afraid that they would make Yanyun’s owner unhappy if they visited now.
smart people wouldn’t choose to visit at this time. Normally, Xuan Siyun would understand such simple logic, but now, she had lost all rationality.
“i told you to prepare, didn’t you understand?”
Yingluo, yes, young miss. I’ll go and prepare now.
While Xuan Siyun was making a ruckus, Shi Yan was very quiet.
when she woke up early in the morning, she and jiang che had breakfast as usual. they were calm and composed as usual, even though she had to return to the home she had left for many years after breakfast.
jiang che personally drove shi yan back to the shi family.
the shi family was indeed an old aristocratic family in the capital. the door of the mansion exuded a strong aura of an aristocratic family’s heritage, low-profile but grand.
in this season, the mornings in the capital city were still a little chilly. jiang che sent shi yan to the gate of the shi family’s residence and parked the car but did not get out. he turned to help shi yan, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, adjust her coat and coat. he also helped her tidy up her black hair that had fallen over her waist.
he caressed her cheek with his palm and met her eyes. his voice was clear and gentle.”miss shi, go on. i’ll pick you up after you’re done.”
her words calmed shi yan’s slightly flustered heart.
Shi Yan had always been calm, and nothing could be seen on her face. However, Jiang che knew very well that she was not as calm as she looked.
she held jiang che’s hand on her face and rubbed her eyes against his palm for a while before releasing it. ” “I’ll be leaving then, Yueyue.”
jiang che’s good-looking face had a faint smile on it, as warm as usual. ” “go on.”
Shi Yan was about to open the car door when she suddenly looked up and saw the gate in front of her. She stopped her action of getting out of the car and quickly kissed Jiang Zhi on the lips before pushing the door open and getting out.
It was as if she was borrowing a little more courage from him.
“Yanyan,”
As soon as she got out of the car, she heard a familiar voice. She looked up to the sound and saw su mu standing not far away. There was another person beside su mu. It was su chen, whom he had not seen for a while.
shi yan was a little surprised to see them here, but she didn’t seem to be too surprised.
cousin, Brother Su chen, ” he said, smiling. why are you here? ”
the two of them walked over.
“i have to come and take a look to be at ease.” su chen said bluntly.
Jiang che didn’t intend to get out of the car. He was afraid that he would break Shi Yan’s hard-won mental preparation, so he nodded at the two of them in the car as a greeting.
“We’ll go in with you.” Su mu said.
It was impossible to say that they were not touched at all since they had come to accompany her. However, Shi Yan did not show it on her face. She smiled at them and said, ” i’m going home, not going to a dragon’s pool or a tiger’s den. you don’t have to be so nervous. ”
The two of them just looked at her, their faces tense and silent. They were obviously worried.
shi yan was helpless. ” i can go in by myself. when i’m done here, i’ll ask you guys out for dinner. i’m leaving. ”
shi yan turned around and looked up at the door in front of her. she exhaled gently and walked forward.
after a few steps, she stopped and turned back to look in jiang che’s direction.
when her eyes met jiang che’s, jiang che smiled at her. she returned his smile and walked towards the shi family’s gate.
Both su mu and su chen knew her personality well. Since she said she would go in by herself, the two of them did not insist on following her no matter how worried they were.
The door of the Shi family’s house was open, perhaps because he had known that she would be coming back today.
even though he could not see a single person outside the door.
Without any obstruction, Shi Yan walked straight in.
shi yan’s feelings were complicated when she stepped into this door again after nearly ten years.
As soon as he stepped through the door, he saw a group of people standing there waiting.
Compared to the calm expression on Shi Yan’s face, her parents, brothers, and everyone in the second and third household of the Shi family had their emotions piled up on their faces. Even Shi Boran and Shi boyu, who rarely showed their emotions, had excitement on their faces that could not be concealed.
This scene was very familiar, but it was different from the past. Back then, she had left and they had watched her leave. Now, she was back and they were welcoming her.
oh, there was still something different.
Back then, her grandfather and grandmother had also been among these people, but now, they were nowhere to be seen.
However, Shi Yan was not disappointed. Or rather, she was not as disappointed as she had imagined.
Today, her heart was no longer the same as it was back then.
Of course, it could also be that she had someone by her side now.
“smoke and mist.”
Su Wan approached her with reddened eyes. Shi Yan did not avoid her hand and let her hold it. She smiled and said, ” “mom, i’m back.”
