Zhao Yan walked up to Li Mei and said with a smile, “Auntie, I brought you some gifts for my first visit. Please accept them.”
After saying that, the assistant behind him handed over a pile of things. Almost everyone in the Jiang family had been taken into account. Even the two children had their own gifts. It was obvious that they had prepared them very carefully.
Seeing such a gift, Li Mei understood the other party’s kindness. In that case, no matter why they came, she had to treat them well.
Li Mei smiled and said, “Our families haven’t been interacting for a long time. Why did you think of visiting me?”
“I’m not too sure about what happened in the previous generations, but my little sister knows An’an. She said that she went out with her some time ago, so when I passed by here, 1 thought that I had to visit no matter what.” Zhao Yan had a smile on his face.
These words were really beautiful. No one could find any fault with them, and they were not too close. This meant that it was just a relationship between the younger generation and had nothing to do with the family.
Jiang An didn’t know the exact situation of the Zhao family, but she had never heard Zhao Lan say that she had a good relationship with Zhao Yan. She rarely even mentioned this brother. She didn’t expect him to come to the Jiang family because of Zhao Lan.
After Zhao Yan and Li Mei finished speaking, they shifted their gaze to Jiang An and said, “Sister An’an is really as Xiao Lan said. She’s an intelligent and beautiful young lady from a wealthy family. If only Xiao Lan could be like you in the future.”
“Sister Zhao Lan is much more gentle and elegant than me,” Jiang An quickly said humbly.
This was not a lie. After all, Zhao Lan was the daughter of a family who had nurtured her for many years. She was indeed better than Jiang An in terms of etiquette. After all, she had been used to those rules since she was young, and Jiang An was still slowly adapting.
Zhao Yan laughed loudly. “Xiao Lan is too rigid. Although others praise her bearing, 1 always feel that she should live a little more freely.”
He sounded like a brother who doted on his sister. Jiang An also had a good impression of Zhao Yan. He should not be a bad person if he treated his sister so well. As for his relationship with Zou Bai, he could only be said to be competitive.
Zou Bai did not say much to Jiang An, so her understanding of Zhao Yan could be said to be neutral.
At this moment, Li Mei said, “How many more days are you in Xiyun for?”
“The plan is to leave today, but the scenery in Xiyun is too good. 1 have to stay for a few more days.”
Li Mei loved it when people praised Xiyun. After hearing that, the smile on her face widened. “It’s good that you like it. Where do you live?”
Zhao Yan said, “It’s at a hotel in the city.”
“The hotels in Xiyun City belong to our Jiang family. We’re responsible for your accommodation,” Li Mei said heroically.
Zhao Yan agreed with a smile. He had already made plans in his heart. Although the Jiang family was not an aristocratic family in Jingdu City, they could be said to be the most powerful family in Xiyun. Their four aristocratic families looked illustrious in Jingdu City, but other than the Zou family, which had power overseas, the other families were slowly shrinking, wanting to find a new way out.
The Jiang family was different. They had real businesses in their hands. The Jiang family monopolized almost all industries in Xiyun. Nine out of ten shops were related to the Jiang family.
Moreover, they still had a mine in their hands. That was something that couldn’t be bought with money. Not only did the Jiang family have it, but they also had a lot of mines overseas.
Therefore, although the Jiang family looked rich, they were actually wealthy to an unimaginable extent. It was just that outsiders couldn’t figure it out and thought that they were just ordinary rich families.
This was also why the Jiang family was smart. They kept a low profile and did not do things ostentatiously, lest they attracted the jealousy of others.
After Zhao Yan left, Li Mei sighed and said, “I didn’t expect the Zhao family to have such a person. He’s really worlds apart from his father.”
“What happened with Zhao Yan’s father?” Jiang An asked.
Li Mei shook her head. “His entire life could be said to be straightforward. He would do whatever he wanted. His wife had just gotten pregnant and he went to chase after true love. She was so angry that she almost had a miscarriage. When his ‘true love’ gave birth, he decided she wasn’t his ‘true love’ anymore. He said that he wanted to pursue freedom.”
“He left his family behind and went overseas. He disappeared for a full two years before returning. He said that he took a sailboat across the Atlantic Ocean. After staying at home for a few months, he carried his bag to the Amazon again. When he returned, he was holding a child’s hand. He said that he was his biological child, but in the end, the DNA test showed that they were not related by blood at all.”
Jiang An was very surprised. “Could he have been scammed?”
“He knows it very well. It’s because he fell in love with the child’s mother and thought he was a devoted man. He had to raise her child after she died.”
Li Mei found this matter ridiculous. If not for the fact that Old Master Zhao only had one son, he would not have been the head of the family..
