The room fell into silence for a while, followed by various noises.
Probably dozens of seconds passed.
Crunch!
The door was flung open.
A middle-aged woman with a frown on her face and gray hair on her temples came out.
When Jiang Yan saw the woman, the hazy memories of his childhood immediately came back to him.
"Godmother?"
Jiang Yan suppressed the excitement in his heart and shouted.
"Are you Yan'er? Are you really Yan'er?"
Shangguan Qiuyan was so excited that she trembled all over. She rushed forward and held Jiang Yan's face, her tears falling down uncontrollably.
"Godmother, it's me."
Jiang Yan said hoarsely.
"Are you okay? How have you been these past few years? Are you okay?"
Shangguan Qiuyan asked in a trembling voice.
"I'm fine! Godmother, don't worry." Jiang Yan smiled.
"As long as everything is alright, and you are safe, my sister, if anyone knows about it, she can rest in peace."
Shangguan Qiuyan closed her eyes, tears staining her face.
"Mom, Jiang Yan is doing very well now. He has opened a company in Yancheng and is living a good life!"
Shangguan Yan chuckled.
"Yancheng?"
Shangguan Qiuyan seemed to have thought of something and said hurriedly: "Since you are staying well in Yancheng, why are you here? Hurry! Get out of here! Yan'er, if the Jiang family knows that you are here, they will definitely not let you go.
It’s your fault! Leave immediately! Leave immediately!”
After saying that, Shangguan Qiuyan was about to drag Jiang Yan away.
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't drag Jiang Yan away.
"Godmother, don't worry, the Jiang family can't do anything to me."
Jiang Yan said calmly.
"Yes, Mom, Jiang Yan can't leave, he still has to help us solve the Sheng family's affairs!"
Shangguan Yan said quickly.
Now Jiang Yan is her only life-saving straw. How can she ask Jiang Yan to leave?
"Shengjia...yes, yes...you all go together! Let's go together! Get out of Dadu, quickly!"
Shangguan Qiuyan was trembling all over and kept shouting, with a particularly anxious expression on her face.
Shangguan Yan was a little at a loss when he saw this.
However, at this moment, an indifferent voice came.
"Let's go? Aunt Qiuyan! If they leave, what will happen to our Shangguan family?"
As he finished speaking, a woman with heavy makeup and beautiful features walked in and stared at the few people with squinted eyes.
"Cousin?"
Shangguan's face trembled.
The person who came was surprisingly Shangguan Zhichu, the daughter of Shangguan Yan’s second uncle!
Shangguan Zhichu narrowed his eyes and said: "Auntie, I know you plan to fight all the crimes for Xiaoyan, but you have to know that it is not you who has the final say whether you can fight or not, but it depends on whether the Sheng family is willing to accept it. If
What should I do if someone insists on settling a score with Xiaoyan? When Xiaoyan is gone, won’t others want to attack my Shangguan family? "
"In addition, this man named Jiang Yan cannot leave. I heard that he is a sinner of the Jiang family. If you let him go, the Jiang family will come to us for help. How should we give an explanation to the Jiang family?"
"At that time, the Jiang family and the Sheng family worked together to deal with our Shangguan family. Wouldn't our Shangguan family be wiped out in ashes, and our family would be destroyed?"
After saying these words, Shangguan Qiuyan didn't know how to refute.
"Cousin, this..."
Shangguan Yan was also speechless.
Jiang Yan glanced at Shangguan Zhichu and could see that this woman was not keeping up with Guan Yan's family. Seeing the two people's embarrassment, he asked, "What is this young lady's name?"
"You have no right to ask me questions! You have no right to talk to me."
Shangguan Zhichu hummed softly: "The housekeeper said that Xiaoyan brought a man, so I came over to take a look. I didn't expect that he was the sinner of the Jiang family! What? Xiaoyan, are you planning to rely on this man to borrow money from the Jiang family?
Are you willing to take action to resolve this matter?"
"Yes cousin..."
Shangguan Yan hesitated for a moment, nodded.
"I think you are out of your mind? So what if you find people and hand them over to the Jiang family? What kind of family is the Jiang family? If they are in a good mood, it is your favor. If they are in a bad mood, they will not take care of them.
You! What's more, will the Jiang family be willing to intervene in this matter for your sake? You beat the young master of the Sheng family to death, which is almost equivalent to killing Sheng Chenggong. Do you think the Sheng family will give up because of the Jiang family?
?”
Shangguan Zhichu sneered.
"Then...what should I do?"
Shangguan's face was trembling and he asked anxiously.
"What should I do? Go to the Sing family alone to apologize and let the Sing family handle it. Don't look for this or that anymore. This is your own fault. Our family should not be implicated because of your recklessness.
!”
Shangguan Zhichu hummed.
"Ah? This...this..."
Shangguan Yan was so frightened that her pretty face turned pale and she was at a loss.
"Zhichu! Xiaoyan is my daughter. As a mother, I should bear the responsibility for the trouble she caused. Don't scare her anymore. I will ensure that the Shangguan family will not be implicated!"
Shangguan Qiuyan said immediately.
"Promise? Aunt, let's forget it, no one can say for sure."
Shangguan Zhichu shook his head and sneered.
Shangguan Qiuyan frowned and said nothing.
However, at this moment, Jiang Yan suddenly spoke up.
"Godmother, I think what this Miss Shangguan Zhichu said makes sense. This matter was caused by Xiaoyan, and it should be resolved by Xiaoyan. She has grown up, and you should no longer be responsible for her arbitrary behavior.
Pay the bill."
The words fell to the ground, and Shangguan Qiuyan looked at him in astonishment.
Shangguan Zhichu was also surprised, and for a time he thought he had heard wrong.
"Yan'er, you..."
"Godmother, let Xiaoyan go to Sheng's house. Don't worry, I will go with her. I will make sure that she is safe and sound and nothing will happen to her."
Jiang Yan smiled lightly.
"Jiang Yan! Are you crazy? Do you want me to die?"
Shangguan Yan almost wanted to scream.
"Where was your courage in defeating Sheng?"
Jiang Yan asked calmly.
"Then...didn't you drink? Drinking to strengthen your courage..."
"Then how about you have a drink and then come with me?"
"you...."
Shangguan Yan was shocked and angry, and didn't know what to say.
"Xiaoyan, I didn't expect that your godbrother is quite good! He said this, why don't you do it quickly? Go to the Sheng family to apologize! Remember, kowtow to the people in the Sheng family!
"
Shangguan Zhichu narrowed his eyes and chuckled.
However, Jiang Yan shook his head.
"I asked Xiaoyan to go because I wanted to put an end to this matter. I didn't ask her to apologize, nor did I ask her to kowtow to the Sheng family, because the culprit of this matter was not Xiaoyan, but Sheng Chenggong."
Shangguan Zhichu was stunned for a moment, then sneered again and again: "Go and talk to Sheng's family and see if they can reason with you and tell you who is the culprit!"
Jiang Yan looked at Shangguan Qiuyan.
Shangguan Yan also stared at his mother with burning eyes, trembling slightly all over.
Shangguan Qiuyan was silent for a long time, her eyes full of ideological struggle, and she seemed extremely hesitant.
"Mom, I won't harm her. She is also my sister after all."
Jiang Yan shouted in a low voice.
This statement seemed to give Shangguan Qiuyan great relief.
From Jiang Yan's birth to before the incident, Shangguan Qiuyan almost always accompanied Jiang Yan's mother and son, and she had long regarded Jiang Yan as her own child.
She took a deep breath, nodded and said: "Yan'er, mother... I believe you, just take Xiaoyan there!"
"mom!"
Shangguan Yan was going crazy.
"Listen to your brother, Xiaoyan!"
Shangguan Qiuyan said hoarsely.
Shangguan Yan sat paralyzed on the ground, dumbfounded.
