Chapter 419



419 Signature

Xiao Liu’s plane would arrive in Shanghai at two in the afternoon. Jiang se borrowed a car from someone and drove it to the airport to pick him up.

He was dressed in a pair of long pants and a white shirt. The moment he stepped out of the airport, he saw Jiang se waiting for him at the exit.

Even though they had investigated and found out that she was the daughter of the kidnapper, Xiao Liu found it difficult to loathe her.

She was simply too outstanding. There were many pedestrians around her, but she was still the center of attention even though she was leaning against the waiting seat belt.

She was wearing a cheongsam with a white background and light green thread woven into a plaid pattern. The cuffs were sewn with light green chiffon in a complicated style. This girlish design diluted the mature feeling that the cheongsam brought about when it perfectly covered the graceful body, making her look as elegant as water.

Jiang se was wearing a Platinum bangle on her wrist. Other than that, she did not have any other accessories.

Some of the tourists around her had already recognized her and were taking pictures with their phones. However, Jiang se ignored them. As she stood there, she was like a beautiful scenery that could not be ignored.

Someone tried to strike up a conversation with her and asked her if she was the movie star Jiang se. She merely raised her hand and gestured for the girl to stop. The girl who had mustered her courage to approach her immediately returned in defeat.

“Miss Jiang,” Xiao Liu was only carrying a simple luggage. It was obvious that she did not intend to stay in Shanghai for long. The moment she saw Jiang se, she greeted her first.

There was a cold feeling about her, as if she was the Miss Feng Nan of the past. After Xiao Liu greeted her, he was dazed for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he sighed in his heart. No wonder Feng Zhongliang liked her so much. Even when he knew that her father was very likely to be the bandit who kidnapped Feng Nan, he was still so protective of her. It might be because he had shifted his feelings for her.

“Uncle Liu,” Jiang se smiled and asked about Feng Zhongliang’s health. Her tone was filled with concern and did not seem to be faking it. Xiao Liu remembered Feng Zhongliang’s instructions before they set off and did not dare to reveal anything else. She only answered as she could, ”

the last time you were around, the old man had a drink in a rare mood. After that, his blood pressure was high, so he invited Dr. Zhao. He’s been recuperating recently.

He vaguely explained the reason why Feng Zhongliang was so eager to get his signature, ”

from then on, Dr. Zhao told him to rest well for a while. He also temporarily handed over his flowers and plants to others. The old man is also a restless person. When he said that, he noticed a smile on Jiang SE’s face. There was a look of longing in her eyes. Xiao Liu was stunned.

He had once firmly believed that Jiang se had approached Feng Zhongliang for some other reason. He could not help but worry, especially when her identity was so sensitive.

However, when he saw the emotions in Jiang seliu’s eyes, he began to doubt his previous guess.

that’s why he wanted to carve it. He said that since you gave him Tian Huangshi, it’s only right that I decide how to carve it after I receive your calligraphy.

When he told her his half-truth, Jiang se lowered her eyes and responded.

Liu’s schedule was very tight, and Feng Zhongliang was still anxiously waiting for an answer in the capital.

When she found out that he was returning to the capital the next day, Jiang se arranged for him to finish his writing first. She would treat him to Haimon cuisine that night to welcome him back.

Naturally, Xiao Liu had no objections to such an arrangement. Jiang se drove him to the hotel where he was staying so that he could wash up.

There was a café in the hotel lobby. The afternoon sun was scorching hot, and many people ordered a cup of coffee in the café, accompanied by desserts to pass the time.

After Xiao Liu washed up and changed into a fresh set of clothes, she saw Jiang se sitting by the window. She squinted her eyes and her skin was as fair as porcelain. The sunlight shone on her beautiful face through the glass. Accompanied by the soothing and gentle music in the cafe, the quiet and tranquil atmosphere made one feel reluctant to break her.

There was a cup of coffee in front of her, but she was not playing with her mobile phone like many people in the coffee shop. She was very quiet, like miss Feng Nan in the past.

Xiao Liu sighed. When he sat down, he took the paper and pen that Feng Zhongliang had asked him to bring.

Feng Zhongliang was unusually persistent and serious when he asked Jiang se to write. It was as if he wanted to confirm something. He had personally prepared these things and asked little Liu to bring them all the way from the capital to Shanghai.

“The old man said that you should just read and write something so that he can think about it. He might even give you a surprise after you finish filming the movie.”

He ordered a cup of coffee and a few desserts from the store. After the waiter left, he smiled and said, ”

“Please write down your request here. I’ll bring it back and let the old man see it.”

Jiang se took the notebook and pen. Most people in this era were already reliant on electronic products.

In their daily lives, most of the time, they would use their phones or computers to type. Very few people could write well.

To Xiao Liu’s surprise, Jiang SE’s handwriting was very well-written. It was obvious that she had put in some effort. She even found her handwriting vaguely familiar. She wrote her own name, Feng Zhongliang’s name, and even a sentence: The weather was hot, so Grandpa had to take good care of his body.

She lowered her head as she wrote. Xiao Liu was holding her phone.

“The old man missed you and told me to take some photos of you this time.”

His phone’s camera was facing Jiang se. It recorded her expression as she wrote, the way she held the pen, and the words in her notebook.

Jiang se did not say anything. She lowered her head and wrote down a simple recipe for a cooling tea. She then closed the pen cover and placed it in her notebook. She pushed the pen toward Xiao Liu.

“I’m not looking forward to any surprises. I just hope that the old man won’t be angry with me.” She whispered, “the last time I called, he even told me not to film director Zhang’s movie.

She smiled, but she seemed to be a little aggrieved.

“I didn’t listen to him. I was afraid that he would ignore me.”

Seeing her like this, Liu couldn’t help but feel sorry for her. Although Jiang Zhiyuan was still a thorn in his side, he hesitated for a moment before comforting her.

“Don’t worry, the old master won’t be angry with you.”

He had investigated Jiang SE’s background and found out that her biological father was the one who had kidnapped Feng Nan. Feng Zhongliang had been so protective of her over such an important matter. Why would he be angry at her over such a small matter?

“I hope so,” Xiao Liu’s visit was too sudden. Jiang se was not stupid. She could guess that Feng Zhongliang must have instructed him to make a special trip to Shanghai.

Xiao Liu was his grandfather’s confidant and had been by his side for many years. He had probably sent Xiao Liu over this time because he had guessed something and wanted to verify her handwriting.

She pursed her lips and held back the tears in her eyes.

At that moment, in the du family’s residence in the imperial capital, Zhou Hui and her son were having their summer break. The family was living a comfortable life now. Jiang se was the financial burden, so they planned to go overseas for a while in August.

They were supposed to be out early, but du changqun’s mother was not feeling well a few days ago and had been delayed for a while. Du honghong and her brother could not wait any longer. They had already packed their luggage. Du changqun was sitting on the sofa, discussing with his children what to bring when the phone in the living room suddenly rang. Without turning his head, he asked Zhou Hui, ”

“Who’s that?”
