2259 Old Master Jiang Is Still Not Here at the Arranged Time
“Nian Nian.” As soon as he saw the girl, Jiang Zongjin was the first to stand up and walk over quickly. Holding the girl’s hand, his eyes felt hot, and he resisted the urge to cry. He said softly, “Why did you lose weight? Did you not rest well in Rao City? By the way, is your Uncle Chen feeling better? I called Chen Yuan previously and said that I would visit you. He said that you were very busy, so I didn’t disturb you. Who knew that you would lose so much weight? If I had known, I would definitely have gone over to accompany you.”
Qiao Nian gently patted his hand and lowered her eyes. “I’m fine. Uncle Chen is much better.”
“That’s good.” Jiang Zongjin looked at her deeply again, as if he could not get enough of her. Only then did he notice Ye Wangchuan behind Qiao Nian.
The man was handsome and had an extraordinary aura.
As he stood there, his aura suppressed everyone in the private room.
“Young Master Ye.” Jiang Zongjin knew about his relationship with his daughter. He nodded politely and greeted him.
Ye Wangchuan was lazy and casual to the others, but his attitude towards Jiang Zongjin was extremely respectful. He immediately greeted him. “Uncle, you can call me Xiao Ye.”
Jiang Zongjin looked at him and then at his daughter. He felt a little uncomfortable but could not say anything.
Sigh, his precious girl had only been found recently.
No matter how much he admired the young man, Jiang Zongjin really did not want to be his “uncle” when he thought about how his daughter would be taken away by him in less than two years.
Fortunately, Jiang Li was observant. He smiled and said, “Uncle, Master Wang, sit down first.”
Jiang Zongjin asked Qiao Nian to sit beside him. Ye Wangchuan, who had a high EQ, chose to sit opposite Qiao Nian.
“Old Master Jiang isn’t here yet? Do you want me to get someone to pick him up?”
Jiang Zongnan and Jiang Yao did not speak much the entire time. It was mainly because of Ye Wangchuan’s aura and Jiang Xianrou’s matter that they were too embarrassed to speak.
Until Ye Wangchuan mentioned Old Master Jiang.
Jiang Zongnan added, “I just called him. He has to take his blood pressure at 6:30. He should be on his way now.”
Old Master Jiang’s health was not good, and his high blood pressure was especially serious. Otherwise, he would not have been so angry with Jiang Xianrou that he almost had a brain hemorrhage.
Fortunately, Qiao Nian was around at that time.
Ye Wangchuan only responded indifferently and had no intention of continuing the conversation.
The treatment was completely different from the way he treated Jiang Zongjin.
Jiang Zongnan’s face heated up. He knew why Ye Wangchuan had such an attitude towards him, so he did not ask for a rebuff.
Jiang Li saw his father’s awkward situation. After all, he was his father. He could not bear to see him like this, so he tried to smooth things over and found a few topics to include Jiang Zongnan.
The private room was lively. Everyone tacitly did not mention Jiang Xianrou, as if no such person existed.
It was almost 6:50 PM.
The waiter knocked on the door and entered, then asked politely, “Mr. Jiang, there are still 10 minutes before the dishes you reserved. Can we serve the dishes now?”
Only now did Jiang Zongjin notice the time. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. Frowning, he asked, “Strange, why isn’t your grandfather here yet?”
The sanatorium was not far from the Imperial Mansion. It was only about 10 minutes by car. This was also why Qiao Nian chose this place.
Qiao Nian’s expression changed slightly and she stood up. “I’ll call him.”
