Chapter 313 - Jiang Yijun’s Appearance In Xian Residence II (2/2)
”Grandpa, your life is still long. Don't say that. Maybe this is all determined by destiny.” Jiang Ruolan continued.
”Yes, it was destined that I could meet all my grandchildren during this New Year.” The Old Man nodded, then looked back at Jiang Yijun. ”Yijun, after the Spring Festival, don't go back to F City. I see that your relationship with Ruolan is also good, you should stay at the Xian Residence.”
”Grandpa is getting older. It is very difficult for the two of you to meet again.” Jiang Ruolan said as she looked at Jiang Yijun.
”Grandfather is right. Since you're back, you should stay at the Xian Residence.” Xian Zihao's voice was calm, but his indifferent gaze was intriguing.
Jiang Yijun didn't agree or deny it. He just took a cup from Nanny Cheng and said lightly, ”Thank you.”
For a moment, Jiang Ruolan could feel that Jiang Yijun had changed a lot. He was quieter and more downcast than he had ever been. He was no longer the sunny boy he had once been. What had happened?
Was it because of what had happened in his life or something else? In short, Jiang Ruolan could no longer understand the quiet man in front of her.
Thus, she didn't say anything. Although she really wanted to knock this brat's head to see what he was thinking, she decided to give him some face in front of Old Man Xian.
In the afternoon, Nanny Cheng instructed the servants to clean up Jiang Yijun's room. At this time, he was called to Old Man Xian's study room.
Jiang Ruolan took this opportunity to go over Nanny Cheng and explained to her about Jiang Yijun's daily habits.
When she came out of Jiang Yijun's room, she immediately saw Cui Liuxian standing at the corner of the stairs.
Jiang Ruolan hadn't seen her last night, but now that she saw her again, she saw that Cui Liuxian had cut her hair. She walked to the staircase and was about to go downstairs, but Cui Liuxian stood guard at the foot of the stairs, blocking her way.
”Excuse me.” Jiang Ruolan looked at her indifferently.
”In this family, there are more and more people who support you. Now, here's come another one, Jiang Yijun. Oh no! Maybe I should start calling him Xian Yijun.” Cui Liuxian's gaze was filled with resentment. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised. She smiled in a strange manner, ”Jiang Ruolan, why do you have to force me like this?”
Jiang Ruolan looked at her indifferently, ”I forced you?” She immediately laughed out, ”Miss Cui, could it be that your brain accidentally went into the water during the Mid-Autumn Festival last time? Or was it because you like to pester me so much? Who was forcing who? Who in the world would be so presumptuous to cause trouble all day long? I don't care how much you and Jiang Bingqing hate my existence, but Miss Cui, you should start to believe in karma. What you do to me will be repaid back to you.”
Cui Liuxian continued to look at Jiang Ruolan with a half-smile and something was flashing in her eyes. She stood proudly at the head of the stairs, refusing to give way.
”What do you want?” Jiang Ruolan was so angry that she laughed, ”You want to kill me with your eyes? Or do you want to slap me? Please don't waste my time. Just tell me what you want. Why do you have to talk so much nonsense with me?”
”Why would I hit you?” Cui Liuxian pursed her lips, ”Now that you're the Xian Family's treasure. If I touch a single hair on your head, that means I'm forcing myself onto a dead end. Do you really think I'm that stupid? Last time I was drunk and couldn't think clearly. However, since things have already come to this, I don't have much to say, but Jiang Ruolan, don't think you're so lucky.”
Jiang Ruolan was baffled by her words. She thought Cui Liuxian was trying to make a scene on purpose, but when she saw how confident she (Cui Liuxian) was, she couldn't help but look her in the eye. ”What do you mean?”
”Nothing. I just want you to watch the show.” Cui Liuxian smiled.
Jiang Ruolan had no patience for her. She glanced at her again and decided to walk around her before heading downstairs.
”Jiang Ruolan, do you know why the Jiang Family has always wanted to find that crystal necklace? Do you know why they hide the news about your mother's suicide?” Cui Liuxian's eyes were serene, but they carried a deep chill.
”Cut the crap! If you have something to say, just say it. No need to play psychological tactics with me!” Jiang Ruolan turned around and ruthlessly rebuked her. ”Cui Liuxian, grandpa can tolerate you because he raised you for so many years, but I'm not him. I won't let you off. I'm warning you, don't think of playing any tricks on me!”
Cui Liuxian glanced at her coldly and laughed sinisterly. ”Since when was it your turn to warn me?”
After saying that, Cui Liuxian turned around and walked away. After walking a few steps, she stopped and suddenly looked back at Jiang Ruolan.
She said, ”Jiang Ruolan, how pitiful you are.”
Jiang Ruolan's heart was thrown into disarray by her piercing gaze, but she said indifferently, ”If I'm pitiful, then you're lamentable, Miss Cui!”
After speaking, she turned and walked down the stairs.
