personally come to redeem her
Indeed, not only Jiang che, but she also did not put in all her effort to find Gu Yu. She only asked Wei chuge and Tang Fu in Haicheng to look for him. She did not ask anyone else, not even the hacker God Amy to look for him.
Her thoughts were the same as Jiang Che’s. No matter how powerful the head of a big overseas family was, he wouldn’t be able to cause any waves here. It would be enough to get someone to find him and give him a sense of urgency. He didn’t have that much power to do his best to find him.
she had always preferred to deal with things when they were right in front of her and did not like to worry about unnecessary things. If she had that time, she would rather use it to live her current life.
the two of them returned to their room.
the lights were dim, and it was another sleepless night.
*
the next day, shi yan had to go to her grandmother’s appointment, but the first person she saw was not xie xi n, but shi boyu.
shi boyu had come directly to the jiang family’s old house to find shi yan. when he was invited to the bamboo garden, it was between eleven and twelve in the morning, and shi yan had not woken up.
In the living room, Shi boyu took the tea that Jiang Lin handed him. He didn’t drink it and looked at Jiang che, who was sitting opposite him, and asked, ” “fifth lord jiang, my sister isn’t here?”
It was impossible that he wasn’t here. When he came to the door, he had made it clear that he was here to look for Shi Yan. The Jiang family’s butler had led him directly here, so it was obvious that Shi Yan was here.
“Yanyan went to bed late last night, so she’s still sleeping.”
it wasn’t that shi boyu hadn’t guessed what had happened. He had good eyesight. The marks on Jiang Che’s neck that were revealed when he unbuttoned a button weren’t too bad, but he could still see them clearly.
and jiang che’s slightly broken lips.
Just because he didn’t have such an experience didn’t mean that he didn’t know what it meant. At this moment, Shi boyu only felt that there was a lump in his heart that couldn’t be released. hearing jiang che’s reply, he almost crushed the teacup.
It wasn’t that Jiang che didn’t sense the killing intent from Shi boyu’s eyes, but his expression didn’t change in the slightest. He took a sip of his tea and sat down on the sofa with his back against the sofa. His posture was warm and gentle, and he seemed to be showing off and proud.
Shi boyu was even angrier.
“Third young master Shi, why are you looking for Yanyan? If it’s an emergency, I’ll go upstairs to call her. ”
“Yingluo, no need! Since she didn’t sleep well, let her rest well. We’ll talk about it when she wakes up.”
“She’s still in bed at this hour. Did she eat anything?”
she was clearly very angry, but she was trying her best to suppress her anger.
jiang che knew that shi boyu wasn’t giving him face, the fifth lord jiang, or being afraid of him. the members of the shi family, or to be precise, the younger generation of the shi family, did not take the initiative to cause trouble, nor were they afraid of trouble. they were not afraid of him like the others.
Shi boyu was suppressing his temper only because he was the person chosen by miss Shi, and he was concerned about her.
He was an elder brother who was very attentive to miss Shi.
jiang che only found shi boyu pleasing to the eye now.
“I had some porridge around eight.”
After a long night of torment, he thought that miss Shi might only wake up in the afternoon, so he asked someone to cook a bowl of porridge and send it over. He took it upstairs and fed it to miss Shi personally.
shi boyu’s anger subsided a little when he heard him say that.
about an hour later, shi yan came down from upstairs.
When she went downstairs, Jiang che and Shi boyu were playing chess in the living room.
after a few rounds, they were at loggerheads with each other, no one giving in to the other. shi boyu lost more often and scolded jiang che for being insensible and not knowing how to please his brother.
It wasn’t until the sound of Shi Yan coming downstairs that the tit-for-tat eased a little.
“jiang qianqian.”
shi yan was about to call out to jiang che when she saw shi boyu.
“third brother, why are you here?”
“there’s something i need to talk to you about.”
shi yan went downstairs and was about to walk to the living room when jiang che put down his chess piece and stood up. ” “We’ll continue this game later. If you have anything to say, say it later. Let’s eat first.”
“Miss Shi, are you hungry?” she walked over and held Shi Yan’s hand.
I’ve been sleeping and I don’t feel hungry. It’s almost one o ‘clock. Why haven’t you eaten? ”
“I’m not hungry yet. I’ll wait for you. I’ve asked someone to send the food over. It’s kept warm in the kitchen. Shall we eat first?”
“alright,” he said.
shi boyu had never expected that he would one day sit at the same table as jiang che at the place where he had been in seclusion for three years. He didn’t expect that the three of them could sit at the same table for a meal when the other party had kidnapped his sister. Not only was he calm, but he even felt a little heartwarming.
after the meal, they did not discuss business in the house but in the backyard.
outside the courtyard was the bamboo forest that was rustling with the wind. occasionally, the chirping of unknown birds could be heard, sometimes far and sometimes near. the warm sun shone down in a rustling manner.
he didn’t play chess, but just leaned back on the bamboo chair, drinking tea and basking in the sun.
he sat in the courtyard, relaxed.
at least for shi boyu, this was a rare moment of relaxation for him in the past nine years.
Shi boyu took a sip of tea and looked at Shi Yan.”Grandmother has come to Haicheng.”
“i know, i saw him at school yesterday.”
thinking that her emotions would be affected at the mention of grandmother, shi boyu was a little hesitant before he spoke. seeing that her expression was normal, shi boyu glanced at jiang che, who was sitting at the side.
although he was unwilling, he had to admit that jiang che played a huge role in their family’s relationship with yanyan.
“Grandmother took someone away from your school. Do you remember?”
“Yes, someone who is here to cause trouble.”
shi yan smiled and said, ” i know that third brother has taken the person from grandmother’s hands. the hotel grandmother stayed in last night was owned by a friend of mine. he recognized you and grandmother as my family and gave me the news. ”
he didn’t mention the surveillance cameras in the suite.
“Third brother, you came to find me to talk about Gu Yuanyuan?”
Shi boyu didn’t know whose name the hotel was under last night, but he didn’t intend to ask. He just felt that it was indeed her, to be able to figure out what happened in such a short time.
“yes, it is indeed related to her.”
I took her away to get more useful information from her, but after I brought her back, I received a call before I could ask her anything.
“Phone? Was he calling for Gu Yuanyuan? is he looking for you?”
shi boyu nodded.
someone had actually come to save gu yuanyuan. it seemed that her intuition was right. gu yuanyuan was not from an ordinary family.
“Who called?”
“the seventh master of the gu family, gu zi.”
she had an impression of this gu zi and shi yan. she had seen her in qingcheng last time.
“So, Gu Yuanyuan is really a member of the Gu family?”
“According to seniority, she’s Gu Zi’s niece.”
to have a niece of similar age, it seemed that the gu family was very prosperous in the early years.
“Gu Zi will pay for the ransom, 100 million, I agree.”
“Third brother didn’t increase the bid?” the seventh master of the gu family had personally called to ask for her, so gu yuanyuan should have some weight in the gu family. at least, she would not be from a branch family.
the starting price is 50 million, and I’ll raise it to 100 million. Any more and the other party won’t give it. They said that Gu Yuanyuan is worth this price, and they’ll leave her to her own devices if they offer any more.
He was only willing to pay 100 million to save her.
a hundred million yuan was nothing to a big family like the gu family, so did gu yuanyuan have any weight in the gu family?
“third brother released the person?”
“no, that’s why i came to find you. I’ve arranged to meet Gu Zi tomorrow to hand over the money and the person. Do you want to go with me to the meeting with Gu Zi tomorrow?”
seventh master Gu isn’t willing to pay more than 100 million to redeem her, but he’s willing to make a trip to Haicheng to make a face-to-face deal? ” Shi Yan felt that it was very fresh.
So, was Gu Yuanyuan important or not?
