Chapter 88 - Confrontation III (2/2)
Otherwise, why would Cui Liuxian drag her to the pool?
Jiang Ruolan knew that no matter how she explained, no one would believe her. That's why she didn't want to waste her breath and make herself look even more shameful. What's the use of explaining everything when no one believes you.
However, what she didn't expect was … Xian Zihao's trust on her.
Realizing there was no movement from her, Xian Zihao, who was about to enter the house, glanced at her and said, ”Come with me.”
Although she wasn't very willing, but…
Jiang Ruolan touched her face and showed her grievance. She imitated Cui Liuxian's gentle voice and said, ”Brother Zihao, my face hurts a lot. I was accused of stealing your adopted sister's engagement ring and then my face was slapped too.”
The latter's face immediately turned black. Xian Zihao grabbed her hand and pulled her into the house.
Jiang Ruolan noticed a young woman dressed very fashionable standing in front of the door with her arms crossed and gave her (Jiang Ruolan) a faint smile.
The smile in Jiang Ruolan''s eyes faded as she heard Xian Zihao said, ”Guiying, stay here with your sister-in-law. I'll go take a look.”
The young woman standing in front of the door nodded in agreement. Her gaze once again landed on Jiang Ruolan's face, causing her to feel a little anxious.
The person in front of her was Xian Zihao's sister, Xian Guiying?
That Xian Guiying, who had been helping him manage the Xian's Enterprise all these years?
By this time, Xian Jian and Zhan An were no longer in the living room. They should have gone to check on Cui Liuxian's condition. Xian Zihao went upstairs and left Jiang Ruolan with his sister.
Wasn't Xian Guiying, the granddaughter of Old Man Xian? Why did she take so long to return to Xian Residence?
”Why are you standing there? Come in and sit down. I'm not my father, I won't hit you.” Xian Guiying expressionlessly walked to the middle of the living room to sit.
Her wavy chestnut curly hair hanging down behind her. She was dressed in the latest and most fashionable casual female attire and was dressed in dark style clothes.
Jiang Ruolan didn't expect Xian Zihao''s sister to be such a cold beauty. She was stunned for a moment, then returned to her senses and walked inside.
She sat in the sandalwood chair across from her and watched as Xian Guiying took the fruit plate on the tea table and inserted the pineapple slices into her mouth one by one with a toothpick. As she ate, she raised his head to look at her (Jiang Ruolan).
”Such a change in fortune, I am far away from this family. Now, there is another person in this family who will be the place to vent their anger. Today, Cui Liuxian was playing the part where she lost her life. No one can blame my dad for trusting her so much. Who would risk their life on something like this? ” Xian Guiying's smile was rather cold.
Jiang Ruolan was surprised.
”You saw it too, right?” Xian Guiying took a tissue and wiped her hand.
She was looking at the confused Jiang Ruolan. ”I grew up in a situation like this. I was obviously a person with a Xian surname, but I, the Second Miss of the Xian Family, always bullied the adopted daughter.”
”The adopted daughter became a precious daughter of the Xian Family. No one was as obedient as her. No one was as pitiful as her. No one was worthy of the old man's love other than her.”
Xian Guiying's voice was neither warm nor cold. There was no sour tone in her voice. She was very calm as if she was narrating a story.
She would rather live in Boston to help her brother manage his business than return to the Xian Family.
Jiang Ruolan could tell that this Xian Guiying was a very strong woman. She vaguely remembered hearing that Xian Guiying was twenty-six years old, and when she went to Boston, she hadn't graduated from university.
If her guess was correct, it should be Xian Zihao, who arranged Xian Guiying to follow him back to Boston.
The scene at the pool earlier was also clearly seen by Xian Jian and Xian Guiying who were both sitting in the car.
Both of them could clearly see the situation from the same angle.
People were always like this, they only believed what they were willing to believe.
Therefore, Xian Jian believed in Cui Liuxian. Although Xian Guiying didn't seem to like Jiang Ruolan's sudden appearance, she still believed her.
