1445 Xu Jishen Is Not Coming
Jiang Zongnan was frowning when he mentioned that Old Master Jiang was unwilling to come, but his expression relaxed at this moment. He looked at Jiang Xianrou with a gratified expression and said, “Xianrou, it’s good that you think that way.
“Your grandfather… He doted on you since you were a child. He just misunderstood you. It’s not that he doesn’t like you anymore.”
“I know.” Impatience quickly flashed across Jiang Xianrou’s eyes, but she was much calmer than before. Under such circumstances, she could still smile at Jiang Zongnan and say, “Dad, don’t worry. I won’t blame Grandpa.”
Now that she had entered the Pharmacy Association and acknowledged the legendary figure of the Qi family as her godmother, she naturally wouldn’t argue with the old man.
The Jiang family still held some weight in her eyes in the past.
But now?
They were just so-so!
She had long seen how vast the sky outside Beijing was through Qi Yan. In the past, her horizons had been restricted by Qin Si and the others.
She thought she could get into that little circle and had already touched the ceiling.
However, she didn’t know that there was always someone better in this world.
Outside Beijing, there was Continent O, a country, and a royal family. She even learned from Qi Yan about the independent continent and the illegal district…
The world in Beijing seemed so small in comparison.
She didn’t even care about Qin Si, so how could she care about the Jiang family’s insignificant status?
Jiang Xianrou’s eyes were filled with desire and ambition. She curled her lips and looked ahead.
Outside was a bustling crowd of passersby.
In her heart, she only wanted to use the bridge her mother had laid for her this time to successfully ascend to a higher level.
As for who her grandfather loved the most, she didn’t care at all.
Jiang Xianrou didn’t care why the old man refused to come to her filiation banquet.
In any case, she no longer needed to rely on the Jiang family’s background. Those people in Beijing could only support her now that she had the Pharmacy Association’s backing.
They were even more flattering than before.
Wasn’t Ruan Sisi and the others the best example?
Jiang Xianrou was in a daze and did not notice that Jiang Yao’s car was also parked outside. Only Jiang Yao got out of the car.
She didn’t notice him.
Tang Wanru immediately noticed that Jiang Yao was alone. Her instincts prompted her to frown and ask her son, “Yao’er, why did you come alone? Where’s Young Master Xu? Didn’t he come with you?”
“He’s busy.”
Jiang Yao was dressed very casually today, not as grandly as the other three.
He was wearing a designer shirt jacket over his white T-shirt. The collar was open, and he looked like a handsome young master.
Jiang Yao had long legs and strode over in a few steps. He relaxed when he saw Jiang Xianrou. He patted her shoulder and said warmly, “Xianrou, congratulations.”
“Thank you, Big Brother.” Jiang Xianrou lowered her head shyly, looking very humble.
However, she became even more respectful to Jiang Yao after she humbly understood the situation outside Beijing and how powerful Tian Chen was.
Tian Chen had a background in the illegal district, and Jiang Yao was a member of Tian Chen.
She might need her big brother to help her in the future.
Jiang Yao nodded in relief upon seeing that she was no longer arrogant and impatient. He then turned to look at Tang Wanru. “Young Master Xu’s grandfather is sick. He caught a small cold. He was worried and went back to Rao City. He left this morning. He left less than an hour ago.”
