Experience Apocalypse with the Space - Chapter 14
“My son can’t handle it.” After the matter with her daughter-in-law, this person could be considered to have calmed down. She knew that she couldn’t mess around, or else she wouldn’t be able to buy time for her son, and even more so, she wouldn’t be able to find that man, she didn’t know how he would come back, and she wouldn’t be able to find him. If she couldn’t find him, then she would have all her shares and money.
“Deal, is dealing with bankruptcy?” If Jian’s was not bankrupt before, these people would have believed him. But now that Jian’s was declared bankrupt, the risk for the company was to have all the shares sold to him before the fixed assets were auctioned off.
Fortunately, the development of the Jian’s was very stable, and did not borrow any money from the outside world to develop. At that time, he would not have to worry about losing his fixed assets, as it was still not enough.
“Second Uncle.” Jian Hongxuan’s eyes were a little bloodshot. At this point of time, if he still didn’t know what was wrong with the company, then he really wouldn’t need to be the successor to the Jian Family. He really didn’t think that his mother would lie to him.
“Yes.” Jian Hongxuan could not help but laugh bitterly. He had always thought that his father had let his mother down, so when he had to do something, he had always been biased towards his mother, and even dared to go against his grandfather for his mother. However, in the end, he was tricked by his own mother.
“Don’t think about it, logically speaking, you should have already found out, it was just because you were worried about your mother that you didn’t dare to investigate too deeply,” Second Uncle Jane looked at his nephew’s appearance, he knew that the other party was still unconvinced, don’t think that these things were caused by Mrs. Jian, if it wasn’t for him being her son’s connivance, that sister-in-law Mrs. Jian would not have been able to accomplish anything, and forget about everything else, why did her son support Jian’s ten years ago, and it was precisely because her son didn’t dare to look into her, and gave her the chance to do so.
With the matter of Jian’s’s bankruptcy settled, Yang Xi and Zhong Haoyan began the final step of the engagement, it was just that she did not need her parents to join him. Yang Xi’s mother had already succeeded in becoming a mistress in her third year and had entered a successor in another family. Her status was even higher than the Jian Family, but since she was from a mafia family, and could be found frequently, she was not in the mood to bother about Yang Xi’s matters. Furthermore, she gave birth to the other party and gave it to the Jian Family, unaware that her daughter was still alive.
One of them was the Jian’s father. He was locked up because he was in debt to the gamblers, waiting for his family to redeem him. There was no time for him to participate, so only his grandfather and second uncle’s family participated.
The engagement banquet had a hundred and eighty tables, and, a girl who was a normal person in her previous life, was truly shocked. She added all of her relatives and friends from the corners of her heart, secretly wanting to compete with Zhong Family in this banquet.
It was because Grandfather said that if it wasn’t for Zhong Family who had always kept a low profile, this time would not be just a small number of people.
He had to say that, Yang Xi dared not say these words. Just these 180 tables, they did not even need to use the table for drinks, it made her feel like they had a foundation, not to mention, it would be a bit more high-profile. If there really were a few hundred tables, she felt like her legs would tremble.
“What’s there to be afraid of? In two days, I’ll bring you to the military and see the world.” Seeing Yang Xi being so nervous, Zhong Haoyan couldn’t help but to comfort him.
Yang Xi felt her legs go weak. Could we not talk about going to the army now? I don’t even know what it is like to come out and scare me.
“Hur hur.” However, compared to her weak legs, she felt that not answering a bit seemed to weaken her momentum. However, she didn’t know what to answer, so she could only giggle.
“Alright, Qian Qian still needs to fix her makeup. You can leave first.” Second Aunt Jane truly felt that this young master of the Zhong Family was not that easy to think of, regardless of whether she was sincere or not, her words were really suffocating, and really made people speechless. She couldn’t help but think, luckily, this was an arranged marriage, if he was allowed to find his own wife, could she even find his own wife?
Zhong Haoyan was a little unwilling. This was clearly his wife, how could he not be here? However, looking at Second Aunt’s expression, no matter how much more words he said, it wouldn’t be good for him to object in this situation, so he could only walk out of the resting room in embarrassment.
“Second Aunt, you’re really amazing.” Yang Xi couldn’t help but have stars in her eyes. It wasn’t because she was afraid of Zhong Haoyan that she didn’t know how to treat him, but because that fellow was much less afraid of her. She didn’t even have the chance to go against him. In any case, this person only talked, nothing else would happen.
“Silly girl, what’s so amazing about that? That’s because I care about you.” In the past, she had always thought that this girl had a cold face the whole time, and would even arrange an engagement for her later on. Only then did she find out that this girl was actually a cold-faced and warm-hearted person, and the reason why she kept a wooden face was because she did not know whether anyone in this family was truly nice to her or not.
“…” Yang Xi blinked her eyes, she had listened to her words before, but she had not understood. Honestly speaking, they had only met three times, how could they possibly have feelings for each other?
This little episode did not affect the engagement, but in the end, a person who was not very welcome had arrived. At this time, Jian Ning also knew that the Zhong Family was not like what her mother had said, that a poor soldier should be.
She felt that Yang Xi must have done it on purpose. She clearly knew what kind of family Zhong Family was, that was why he went to snatch her fiancé. Of course, she was also quite angry at his mother.
Of course, she was already with true love now. No matter how much she hated him in her heart, it was just because she wanted to ruin their marriage. It was not because she wanted to be together with Zhong Haoyan.
“Yang Xi, how can you do this?” When the manager saw that the lady from the Fang family had arrived, he did not dare to be slow. Seeing that the lady from the Fang family knew her, he could not help but feel relieved.
“Sis.” Although Yang Xi had read a lot of novels, they were all theoretical knowledge. She didn’t really know how to interact with real people, so she was completely confused.
“Jian Ning, come sit over here.” When Grandpa Jane saw Jian Ning, his eyebrows couldn’t help but twitch. He knew that since this mother of hers had studied for half her life, how could she possibly behave herself, and indeed, Qian Qian’s engagement had started already, causing him to feel extremely unhappy in his heart. He was also afraid that others would laugh at his lack of upbringing.
With regards to his daughter-in-law teaching his granddaughter in such a manner, even if he had more complaints, it would be impossible to change them. If everything was settled in two days’ time, his second son would go and bring his eldest brother back.
Don’t look at how this granddaughter of hers is already in her twenties, but she was spoiled a little too much. Her character isn’t even as mature as Little granddaughter’s and she did some childish things that left him at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Moreover, after this incident, the two children’s hands were covered in flesh. Even if he knew that his granddaughter was at fault, he still couldn’t help but give her a hand.
In truth, there was no place for her in this house. Even if she had been raised by Grandpa Jane, in his heart, Jian Ning was still his real granddaughter.
“You have me.” Zhong Haoyan saw it clearly. Although he had not fallen for Yang Xi yet, this person would be his wife in the future. His wife would naturally have to hurt him, so he could not help but comfort her.
If Zhong’s grandpa heard that Zhong Haoyan had coaxed his wife, he didn’t know whether he would comfort her or not. After all, his grandson was just too much like him, a person who is like ice cubes.
If it was just a normal political marriage, that would have been fine. However, the two of them were old friends, so naturally, they wished for their grandson to have a good life and not stay cold and aloof.
“Yes.” Yang Xi couldn’t help but blush. She had never heard a boy confess to her in such a way before, so she couldn’t help but feel that her face couldn’t be moved. It wasn’t that she liked Zhong Haoyan, but when that girl heard a pretty good man confess to her, her heart would probably beat faster.
Xu Siyuan did not expect to see Yang Xi’s red face the moment he turned his head around. He could not help but think that the other person was very beautiful and her heart couldn’t help but tighten.
No matter what kind of thoughts they had, in the end, Jian Ning did not succeed in making things difficult for them, so they could only swallow their dissatisfaction at being made into a duck by Grandpa Jane. This was because she already knew that the bankruptcy of her family’s company was caused by her mother, so she could not raise her head in front of Grandpa, and naturally did not dare to make a ruckus in front of Grandpa.
“Ah Jun.” Jian Ning was already here, how could she give up? Once she saw that her grandfather was looking at him, she immediately grabbed onto Jane Jun’s hand, hoping that the other party would help her.
“Ning Ning, you’re no longer young.” There were no girls in Jane’s house, so she had always been good to her big uncle’s sister. Furthermore, the men of Jian Family had always been indomitable people, even though he was only prepared to study, he had a bit of a reputation in the academic world.
