Chapter 74: Su Ciyi's mother, and Xu's struggle(1/2)
It started to rain again in the Imperial Capital.
The weather forecast shows that it will rain for another three days.
Because of Jiang's turmoil, during this period of time, the atmosphere among the upper-class dignitaries was filled with solemnity.
Not for anything else, just because many families helped Jiang Chenghai.
If Jiang Chengyan really succeeds in seizing power, these families will also suffer together.
People originally thought that Jiang Chengyan, the abandoned son, would not be able to cause much trouble, but after so many days, the Jiang family and the Jiang family had been tightly closed, suppressing the news so that no one could find out.
This is enough to make those big families feel uneasy.
In fact, the media and reporters who were summoned yesterday inexplicably visited Jiang and then returned inexplicably without success.
This incident was leaked out and sent chills down the spines of the powerful.
What does Jiang mean by preparing to hold a press conference at this juncture?
Even if the press conference was not successfully held in the end, its appearance was like a stick hitting the heads of the families who helped Jiang Chenghai.
[Could Jiang Chengyan really be able to get Jiang Chenghai to dismount?]
[Who knows? Fortunately, I never offended Jiang Chengyan. I only laughed at his identity behind his back and never insulted him in front of him...]
【How many years has he been dormant? It's too scary.】
[Hurry back and ask the juniors at home if they have offended Jiang Chengyan. 】
…
There were all kinds of noises in the imperial capital, rumors were spreading, the families who had offended Jiang Chengyan were all worried, and the other families were watching the show.
This smokeless battle will determine who will ultimately stand at the top of the imperial capital's business community.
In the office of the president of Jiang Group.
A tall figure stood in front of the large French window.
Jiang Chengyan held a cup of coffee in his hand and faced the floor-to-ceiling window. The clean and reflective window glass could vaguely outline the outline of the man's strong face.
He turned around, revealing a pair of slightly narrowed eyes, the dark pupils as deep as if they had been splashed with ink.
Apart from the red bloodshot eyes and the haggard look on his face, his expression was so deep and gloomy that no emotion could be discerned.
Jiang Chao quickly came to Jiang Chengyan and said, "President, we found out."
"People in the old house said that Jiang Tinghao and Jiang Chenghai never left the old house. Jiang Tinghao was having his leg treated in the medical building in the old house, and Jiang Chenghai also stayed in the side house and never came out."
Jiang Chengyan took a sip of coffee and said, "Go on, what else did you find?"
Jiang Chao nodded, "The servant who bribed the side house said that Jiang Chenghai went to the basement of the side house. After he came out, he started to lose his temper, smashed everything in the room, and called a doctor to treat him.
Physical examination..."
At this point, Jiang Chao paused and carefully raised his eyes to observe Jiang Chengyan's face.
"basement……"
Jiang Chengyan narrowed his eyes, and an oppressive low pressure immediately surrounded him.
He put down the coffee cup and opened his lips coldly, "Have you done everything I asked you to prepare?"
Jiang Chao lowered his head, "Everything is ready and can start at any time."
"Well, let's get started."
**
The door of the Jiang family's old house opened.
A black Alpha nanny car drove out.
The car drove quietly into the busiest urban area and disappeared into the traffic on the road, becoming inconspicuous.
The car drove until it stopped in front of the Xu family's villa in the imperial capital.
Unlike the Jiang family's old house in the suburbs, the Xu family's villa is located directly in the most prosperous area of the imperial capital.
The Xu family specially took this piece of land in the city center to build the Xu family's villa complex.
Security personnel opened the door in front of the gate, and the black Alpha drove into the villa complex and drove until it stopped in front of the main building.
The car door opened, Jiang Chenghai got out of the car and was led into Xu's house by a designated person.
It rained moderately in the Imperial Capital today. The continuous rain dropped the temperature by several degrees, and winter was about to begin.
There is a small garden in front of the main building of the Xu family. All kinds of flowers are blooming in the garden. The bodyguard holds an umbrella for Jiang Chenghai and walks through the small garden until he reaches the gate of the main building.
At the gate, there was a graceful-looking couple waiting.
That is the head of the Xu family and his wife.
When Xu Jiaying saw Jiang Chenghai, he stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile: "Chenghai, long time no see."
Jiang Chenghai reached out and shook Xu Jiaying's hand, and smiled, "Long time no see."
"It's still raining outside, let's go in quickly and talk." The lady next to Xu Jiaying said.
Her name is Su Zirou, and she is the current wife of the Xu family.
The three of them entered Xu's house together.
In the splendidly decorated hall of the Xu family, the servants had prepared the finest tea in advance.
The three of them sat down together.
Xu Jiaying waved his hand and asked all the servants to leave.
He first poured a cup of tea for Jiang Chenghai, and then poured a cup of tea for Su Zirou. When he handed the tea to Su Zirou, he gently said: "Be careful of the scalding."
Su Zirou smiled happily, and the two looked very loving.
Jiang Chenghai took this scene in his eyes, and the curve of his mouth was slightly ironic.
hypocritical.
Su Zirou is fifteen years younger than Xu Jiaying. Even though Xu Jiaying is older now, Su Zirou, who is well-maintained, still looks young, beautiful, and gentle.
Jiang Chenghai looked at the turbid tea in the cup and didn't think much about drinking it.
He opened his mouth and said to Xu Jiaying: "I came here because I have something I want to discuss with you."
Xu Jiaying took a sip of tea, with a gentle smile on his face, "What's the matter? As long as Chenghai tells you, I will help you in whatever way I can."
Jiang Chenghai glanced at Su Zirou sitting next to Xu Jiaying without leaving any trace.
Seeing this, Xu Jiaying waved his hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, Zirou is one of our own, there is no need to avoid taboos."
Jiang Chenghai didn't have much patience today. Hearing what Xu Jiaying said, he couldn't help but snorted and said: "If you don't let her avoid it, I'm afraid that what I say later will offend her."
unhappy."
After saying this, the smile on Xu Jiaying's face suddenly faded a bit.
Su Zirou was also extremely embarrassed. She turned slightly pale at Jiang Chenghai's straightforward lack of face.
But after a moment, she stood up and said gently and generously: "It's okay, you guys can chat, and I'll go upstairs to see Qingzhi."
After saying that, Su Zirou gathered her shawl and hurriedly went upstairs.
As soon as Su Zirou left, Xu Jiaying's smile didn't reach his eyes, "Chenghai, what are you going to say to me?"
Jiang Chenghai looked at Xu Jiaying and whispered, "You still remember Qi Yourong, right?"
This wasn't a question.
It's a declarative sentence.
As soon as the name came out, Xu Jiaying's face completely froze and he couldn't even smile.
"Why are you mentioning her? Hasn't she been dead for many years? Is it possible that she is really related to the Qi family?"
Qi family——
One of the four major families in the imperial capital.
This family has existed longer than the Xu, Yin, and Jiang families, but it is also the most low-key and mysterious family.
Jiang Chenghai sneered and continued: "She has nothing to do with the Qi family, but her daughter came to me. I need you to come with me and meet her daughter."
?"Qi Yourong's daughter?!" Xu Jiaying raised his voice and looked at Jiang Chenghai suspiciously.
"If I remember correctly, her daughter is Su Ciyi from the Su family, right? Su Ciyi is now with Jiang Chengyan, and she is half of the Jiang family."
"What? You and Jiang Chengyan are in such trouble, yet you still have the intention to take me to see Su Ciyi?"?
Xu Jiaying, an old fox, had too many problems and was too wary and vigilant. There was no way Jiang Chenghai could tell Xu Jiaying that he was suspected of being poisoned by Su Ciyi, lest Xu Jiaying stab him in the end.
Jiang Chenghai only said: "You don't need to ask so many questions. Su Ciyi found out that Qi Yourong's death was unknown back then, and now she probably wants to seek revenge. In short, I need you to come with me to see her."
Hearing this, Xu Jiaying put down his tea cup and stopped drinking tea. Instead, he looked at Jiang Chenghai meaningfully.
"Chenghai, if you don't tell me clearly, how can I go with you to see Su Ciyi? And what's going on between you and Jiang Chengyan now? You can't really beat your son, can you?"
