Chapter 422 - The Two Of You Have Been Standing Here Chatting For A Long Time

Uncle Huang shook his head. "It's nothing. Actually, I don't know much about your mother's past. If you really want to know, she was abandoned by that Jiang Guanyu after she got pregnant and then she asked for my help. I helped her by giving her the job she can do during pregnancy."

"To be honest, Xiaoling.. She had a full body of arrogance, but she just had a low birth. She never told me about her family and parents, and I only found out after a few months that she had a man she loved deeply, and that was Jiang Guanyu, but that man abandoned her after she got pregnant for his position, reputation, and other practical things. I have seen Zhan Lian before, and when she was young, she was a very beautiful, smart, and meticulous woman, whereas Xiaoling... Her shortcoming was that she had no outstanding family."

"She firmly believed in the relationship between Jiang Guanyu and her, and in the end, she hurt herself to the bone. If Xiaoling had taken precautions against Zhan Lian's existence from the beginning, then nothing would have happened. She believed too much in Zhan Lian, and she also believed too much in Jiang Guanyu. In the end, she was betrayed by her new friends and abandoned by her most beloved."

Jiang Ruolan could only laugh lightly when she heard about her mother's past. "If that's the case, Jiang Guanyu should know that my mother had a child."

Uncle Huang frowned and pondered for a moment, "No, I remember Xiaoling saying that she went to check her pregnancy after Jiang Guanyu and Zhan Lian made their relationship official. At the time, Jiang Guanyu didn't know about that, but when he and Zhan Lian were engaged to get married, Xiaoling refused to give up and wanted to talk some sense into him before she gave birth. However, at that time, Zhan Lian was also pregnant."

Jiang Ruolan's heart shuddered. So it turned out that her mother was so persistent.

"As for Jia Zhenzhen…" Uncle Huang hesitated for a moment, then said, "I knew she was Xiaoling's younger sister at the time. They both studied together when they were teenagers, and they were the same age. I had only met her once. She had a temperament very similar to your mother's, and I have heard that they have been sisters and living together for many years.  Their mutual preferences and so on were all the same. Even the perfumes on their bodies were the same type. I really don't understand the relationship between women, but I can understand that when women have a good relationship with someone, a relationship like a pair of twin sisters, it's very hard to separate."

"Even though your mother may seem weak on the surface, she was a very strong and stubborn woman. Like a hedgehog with a thorn, she hides everything in her heart, and unless she absolutely cannot. She would never go around telling others what happened to her. She said before that she didn't like to act weak in front of others. As for Jia Zhenzhen, due to her family's excellent condition since she was young, she had a very cheerful personality. At that time…."

Uncle Huang suddenly hesitated, then he looked at Jiang Ruolan. "At that time, Jia Zhenzhen had just met Xian Jian and fell in love with him."

Jiang Ruolan knew about the relationship between Jia Zhenzhen and Xian Jian. Besides, Jiang Yijun had already recognized his family, and Uncle Huang had just met him. However, when Uncle Huang mentioned Jia Zhenzhen, he was a bit hesitant.

"I heard that Jia Zhenzhen's father was a great kind of soldier at the time, a very competent soldier in an equipment manufacturer division. He also came from a wealthy family. Since Jia Zhenzhen's family was in good condition, why was she willing to be a mistress? Even though the Xian Family is extremely powerful, but listening to the way you describe her, it's like she's down on her luck and is trying to be a nobody."

The more Jiang Ruolan thought about it, the more doubtful she became.

Uncle Huang sighed again and stopped talking. After a while, he looked back at the crowd under the awning. There was frustration in his eyes. "There are too many things I don't know."

Although Uncle Huang didn't know why her mother suddenly committed suicide, Jiang Ruolan knew that he was very aware of many things before that. From his expression, eyes, and movements, she can easily notice it. This was an advantage of being a media person.

Jiang Ruolan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Did my mother's suicide related to the Xian Family?"

This was a question that had long been hidden in her mind. Last time at the G City's cemetery, Jia Zhenzhen's words had scared her, but after thinking about what had happened and Uncle Huang's doubts, she finally gathered her courage and asked.

Uncle Huang didn't say anything as Old Man Xian walked towards them with his cane. He smiled and said, "Old Huang, I don't know you like my grandson's wife too much. The two of you have been standing here chatting for a long time. Talk to this Old Man as well. What kind of topics do you two discuss? Come and teach this Old Man as well."

When Jiang Ruolan saw Old Man Xian walk over, she wiped the emotion off her face and smiled at him, "Grandpa, look at what you're saying. It can't be that you are jealous because Uncle Huang talks to me?"

"Of course, you are my precious granddaughter-in-law and Old Huang's son is not young either. He was very successful in his career, and I heard Old Huang has been trying to find a wife for him. I noticed that Old Huang was looking at you with his greedy eyes!" Old Man Xian pursed his lips.

Uncle Huang immediately smiled and replied, "Yes, my son is already thirty years old and only knows how to spend his time with work. Even though there are a lot of women surrounding him, they never entered his eyes. Aiya, I don't have much time to live, but that damn kid didn't want to get married at all! While you, Old Man Xian had a great-grandson coming out soon!"

Old Man Xian raised his eyebrows, "Didn't your son have a girlfriend before? What's wrong? Have they broken up?"

Seeing the two elders starting to chat happily, it was not convenient for Jiang Ruolan to say anything else. She tactfully retreated to the side and continued to busy herself.

Perhaps, she misunderstood Jia Zhenzhen's words and as she was not listening to everything clearly at the time, she began to think randomly. Perhaps, if she listened to Jia Zhenzhen's words, things might not be as they were in her shallow mind. Perhaps Jia Zhenzhen's words were not addressed to Xian Family.

Jiang Ruolan walked to her room to take a shower. After resting for an hour, she changed her clothes and decided to go down to accompany the Old Man and chatted with his old friends.

Jiang Ruolan had just opened the bedroom door when she saw Xian Zihao standing outside, about to enter.

"Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to accompany grandpa?" Jiang Ruolan asked in surprise.

Jiang Ruolan knew that Xian Zihao spent the whole day accompanying the Old Man and chatting with a group of old people, which was more tiring than being busy with the Xian Group. She then poured a glass of warm water and gave it to him. "Here, drink water first.

"It's just a social gathering. I just recovered from my severe injuries and not to mention, I can't drink any alcohol tonight. Luckily, Yijun had a high alcohol tolerance, he helped me drink quite a bit. But no matter how good his alcohol tolerance is, it won't be good for his body. I just took him back to his room and then I stopped by to see my wife before I went downstairs again."

With that, Xian Zihao smiled as he held Jiang Ruolan in his arms and ran his hands through her slightly wet hair. After that, his fingers gently hooked onto the hair at the side of her shoulders and played with it, circling it with his fingers from time and time again, as if he was extremely reluctant to part with the fragrance that she had exuded after the bath.

Jiang Ruolan laughed at him and slapped his hand gently. "My hair hasn't dried yet. If you keep playing it like this, you will definitely make it look like a bird's nest."
