Three big shots are proposing to me at the same time? Are you crazy?
Chapter 21: Was it done by her admirer?
Butler Wang's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he coldly glanced at Jiang Yuheng: "If you weren't members of the Jiang family, you wouldn't have enough lives to survive!"
Daring to slander the old master and the fifth young lady in front of him is simply challenging his bottom line!
After saying that, Steward Wang turned and left, ignoring the group of people from the collateral branches of the Jiang family.
Grandpa Jiang had not expected that a seemingly harmless steward was actually skilled in martial arts, and he was immediately terrified. He regretted his recklessness that day.
But he definitely wants a piece of the pie from the Jiang family too.
Since talking to my older brother directly won't work, let's try to find a way to get to that idiot Jiang Huan...
"Grandpa, what do we do now? That old man won't let us stay at the Jiang family's house."
"Don't rush," Grandpa Jiang said calmly. "Let's find a place to stay first, and I'll tell you what to do after I've figured it out."
If you want to get to that little fool, you have to get on his good side first.
As for Jiang Huan, she had long known that the Jiang family was no good, so she had already instructed people to keep an eye on them and to inform her in advance if they made any moves.
During lunch, Li Huaichuan, who had gone to the company to handle some business, returned, a rare occurrence. His eyes and brows were filled with a mixture of joy and worry.
"Brother Chuan," Jiang Huan called out obediently.
Li Huaichuan nodded, then, when facing her, he shed his signature icy expression and chuckled, "Hey..."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Old Master Jiang: "Grandpa, have you heard any rumors circulating in Nancheng lately?"
Since none of them expected Jiang Huan to have recovered, they didn't avoid talking about her when they were discussing things.
She lowered her head and listened quietly.
Old Jiang put down his chopsticks. "What's going on?"
He's been busy dealing with the Jiang family's surveillance network lately, so he hasn't paid attention to anything else.
Little did he know, the mastermind he was thinking of was sitting right across from him, eating a meal!
Li Huaichuan frowned and said, "A few days ago, the Song family's daughter disappeared, and afterwards all the Song family's dirty secrets were exposed. They were everywhere, and the Song family spent a lot of money but couldn't erase them. The Song family collapsed amidst the condemnation of millions of people. Then last night, the evidence of the Wang family's illegal activities was also submitted. By dawn, the Wang family's property was seized, and all the people involved in the Wang family's affairs were arrested. The Wang family will never be able to make a comeback."
"For several days in a row, two families in the south of the city have been brought down. It seems that the person who did this was well-prepared. However, this person is in the shadows, and we don't know whether they are friend or foe." Old Jiang touched the ring on his left hand with his right hand, his expression solemn.
To eliminate two families in one move is a skill not to be underestimated. If they are enemies of the Jiang family, then we must be on guard!
“Grandpa, I’ve investigated. Before these two families had their accidents, both daughters had gone missing.”
"The Wang family's daughter has also disappeared?" Old Jiang frowned.
“Yes.” Li Huaichuan nodded, glancing at Jiang Huan who was quietly eating lunch beside him. “At the Song family’s engagement banquet that day, Song Yuqian, the Song family’s daughter, plotted against Huanhuan, which Huanhuan accidentally discovered, leading to other incidents. And this morning I asked Qin Wenyan, and he said that when he accompanied Huanhuan to the amusement park yesterday, Wang Xue also spoke rudely to Huanhuan…”
Both of these people had conflicts with Huanhuan first, and then the incidents happened.
He only had his suspicions about whether the person in the shadows was helping Huanhuan vent her anger or something.
Old Jiang also sensed something was wrong; the series of events seemed to be related to her beloved granddaughter.
"If it wasn't you, and it wasn't Wen Yan or Si Qi either, then could it have been someone else who admires Huanhuan?"
"Cough cough!" Jiang Huan choked on her milk and felt embarrassed.
Does it only those who admire her can stand up for her? Can't someone like Qian Rui do the same?
However, we still need to find someone to confuse Grandpa and his three 'fiancés'.
Although Qin Wenyan and the other two are there to mislead outsiders, they and her grandfather are the most astute, and it is necessary to dispel their suspicions about her.
"Huanhuan, eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you," Li Huaichuan said gently.
Jiang Huan looked up, grinning, "Mmm!"
Seeing her like this, Elder Jiang and Li Huaichuan didn't think much of it, since she seemed normal as before.
"Huaichuan, keep an eye on business matters. With the Wang and Song families bankrupt, there will definitely be people eager to take advantage. Keep a close eye on whoever profits the most."
"Understood, Grandpa." Li Huaichuan nodded.
After lunch, Jiang Huan went back to her room.
She lay on the sofa, pondering her upcoming meeting with Ling Siyue that evening.
She had planned to meet him during the day to see what he was up to, but if she went out during the day, one of the three of them, Qin Wenyan, would always follow her. If she refused, it would easily arouse their suspicion, which made things very inconvenient for her.
"Ding."
A text message was sent to her phone.
Upon opening it, I discovered it was a text message from Qianrui.
"Huanhuan, my mom and I just arrived in Nancheng. We'll come to your house to play this afternoon!"
Jiang Huan smiled helplessly after seeing this.
She didn't know if Qian Rui genuinely didn't treat her like a 'three-year-old,' or if it was just her personality—knowing she was a 'three-year-old,' she still sent her messages separately.
However, this did give her a reason to go out.
Qin Wenyan is out looking for medicine, Li Huaichuan has to go to the company to handle some business, and Cheng Siqi is looking for someone to guide him on his computer skills. If she goes out, none of these three will be with her...
After thinking it over, Jiang Huan deliberately waited until Li Huaichuan left the Jiang family before taking her phone to find Old Master Jiang.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, I want to go play with my sister."
When Old Jiang saw the text message on his phone, he smiled and said, "But your brother Wen Yan and the others are all busy, and your sister Qian Rui said she's coming to visit you this afternoon. Why don't you just stay home and wait?"
"No, no..." Jiang Huan pouted, shook Old Jiang's arm, and began to whine, "Huanhuan wants to go find them!"
“But…” Old Master Jiang was worried that the two bodyguards he gave Jiang Huan wouldn’t be able to protect her well, so he hesitated. But seeing that she was about to cry, he finally gave in. “Then Grandpa will make a phone call first? Use your phone.”
Jiang Huan guessed what Old Master Jiang was thinking and nodded with a smile.
Sure enough, the next second, Old Jiang used her phone to call Qian Rui.
"Hey, Huanhuan?"
"it's me."
"Ah? Elder Jiang? What's wrong... "
"Huanhuan is clamoring to come and play with you, so you don't need to bother coming over this afternoon. I'll send someone to take Huanhuan to your hotel later, so please go and meet her at the entrance."
"Don't worry, Elder Jiang, we will protect Huanhuan."
After giving a few instructions, Old Jiang returned the phone to Jiang Huan, saying, "Huanhuan, go change your clothes. Grandpa will find someone to take you there."
"Okay!" Jiang Huan skipped away happily.
Watching her cheerful figure disappear into the distance, Old Jiang narrowed his eyes, a hint of suspicion flashing within them.
This girl... she's been going out a lot lately, which is a bit different.
Does this mean she's starting to wake up?
Thinking of this, Old Jiang took out his phone and made a call.
Within ten minutes, a heavy motorcycle entered the Jiang family compound.
