Chapter 931
Chapter 931: A Marriage Alliance
“President Ai, is it okay to call you that? My sister likes you very much. Today is not only my grandfather’s 80th birthday, but also my sister’s 18-year-old coming of age ceremony. I wonder if you can ask President Ai and my sister to take a photo?”
When Xie Di spoke under Xie Qi’s banner, she paid close attention to Ai Wei’s expression. When she saw that Ai Wei had not changed in the slightest, she knew that this matter was most likely going to succeed.
It was not impossible to strike up a conversation and take things one step at a time. If one were to say that Xie Di really had a lot of feelings for Ai Wei, it would definitely be that she did not. She really liked what was on the surface. Ai Wei was a star, every frown and smile was something that he had trained for many years. Moreover, that face of his could really be considered the public enemy of all men and the treasure of all women.
Not only was he handsome, he was also beautiful. His facial features were absolutely three-dimensional, but he did not lose his masculinity. He was definitely not on the same level as the most popular fresh meat nowadays. It did not matter what the mainstream was. He was undoubtedly ranked first.
“Of course. Miss Xie is too polite.”
“In that case, thank you, President AI. However, President Ai really surprised me. I only knew that you were a big star in the past, but it turns out that you are still such an outstanding businessman. President Ai, who is so handsome and capable, really does not want the men of China to live.”
“Miss Xie, you’re too kind. Our Chinese…”
This was obviously a joke. He had heard enough of these words. Ai Wei smiled and only replied a few sentences indifferently.
When Ai Wei turned around and left, he was thinking about Yan Kuan’s words. He said that this Xie Di would be troublesome, but Xie Di spoke to him in a relaxed manner. There wasn’t the slightest bit of abnormality. Moreover, he didn’t see the slightest hint of teasing or understatement. Why did Yan Kuan say that?
Xie Di indeed parted with Ai Wei in a carefree manner. After all, as the master of the Xie family at this time, she naturally couldn’t let anyone see the slightest problem. Of course, she wasn’t really that thirsty, that when she saw Ai Wei, she had to get her hands on him.
She was only testing to see how much of an identity Ai Wei had.
Once 19 left, Shen Xiaoxiao’s health wasn’t very good, so Mo Xing was naturally handed over to Ai Wei to take care of. Although Mo Xing was now part of the Shen Corporation, the relationship between Shen Xiaoxiao and Ai Wei was there. In addition, Ai Wei also had shares in it, so naturally, these things were all done by Ai Wei.
Moreover, Huang Yueyan and Ai Wei were really strange. Huang Yueyan had never asked Ai Wei to work in the Huang Corporation, and Ai Wei would not be involved in matters related to the Huang Corporation, unless it was a cooperation between the two families. Otherwise, Ai Wei rarely interfered with and participated in the Huang Corporation.
Ai Wei’s actions made the other shareholders of the Huang Corporation extremely satisfied. Of course, Ai Wei’s ability was also becoming more outstanding. Now, there were already shareholders of the Huang Corporation who had proposed the idea of letting Ai Wei work in the Huang Corporation, but Ai Wei was not willing. Originally, Huang Yueyan’s wealth was extremely rich. If she was placed in the top three globally, he didn’t expect himself to be able to surpass her. However, it wasn’t like he didn’t have the slightest ability.
Sometimes, spiritual and financial independence was a very important thing for a husband-and-wife relationship.
Perhaps it was because of this that almost no one in the outside world knew about the relationship between Huang Yueyan and Ai Wei. Although they were already husband and wife long ago, they didn’t have any intention of holding a wedding. It was just a moment of trouble. It was because there were too many things involved.
Ai Wei and Xie Di left after a short exchange of pleasantries, but Jiang Shuixian had already seen all of this.
Xie Di was her daughter that she had raised for many years. Although she didn’t know her the best, Jiang Shuixian could still see that something was wrong with some of her actions. After all, Xie Di also worked in the Procuratorate, it was rare for her to directly chat with a man at a banquet like this. If you said it was for her daughter Xie Qi, no, even if it was for Xie Qi, Xie Di wouldn’t have smiled like that just now.
That smile wasn’t Xie Di’s usual smile.
The nanny told her that the Xie family had no intention of marrying the Jiang family. She even vaguely heard that Xie Di had a boyfriend, so Jiang Shuixian even began to suspect that Xie Di’s boyfriend was this Ai Wei, a big star, but he was also an actor. If the Xie family really agreed to Xie Di’s marriage, that would be a slap in the face, a slap in the Jiang family’s face.
However, since the last time, Xie Di’s relationship with her had already fallen to the freezing point. There was no other way. After all, Xie Di was not her biological child. Even if she was angry and scolded her, she would not care about her care for more than ten years. Her attitude toward her became worse and worse. She was really an ingrate who could not be properly raised.
Today, she, Xie Di, took a liking to their family’s Wenyi. It was fine if she did not take a liking to him, but she did not care if she was not the daughter that the Xie family doted on. The daughter that deserved to be doted on was also the daughter that was doted on. She wanted to teach Xie Di a lesson for being a little b*stard.
This was the first time Jiang Shuixian turned around and left in such a composed manner. Tonight, she was the host of the banquet, so she could not afford to make any mistakes.
Naturally, the Chen family would send someone over tonight. However, it wasn’t Old Master Chen who came over. After all, he had already retired, and they were all feeling unwell. The person who came was his eldest son, the successor of the Chen family, Chen Jianzhou. This Chen Jianzhou was a rare and upright person. This was one of the reasons why Yan Kuan felt that he could support the Chen family.
Back then, Chen Jianzhou lost his wife, so he didn’t have the slightest desire to fight over her. Of course, it was also because Chen Jianzhou’s daughter and son had a car accident at the same time, so they didn’t have the time to care about it. The Chen family also encountered an unprecedented crisis. That was why they did not fight with the Jiang family.
However, whether or not the Jiang family was involved in the Chen family’s crisis back then was intriguing. However, it had to be said that Chen Jianzhou was a person who really loved his wife and loved his children.
This was the result of Yan Kuan’s personal investigation. It was definitely not a disguise. Therefore, he had always been optimistic about the Chen family because at least the Chen family was upright.
If the family had a good reputation, this person would not be too bad.
The Chen family had few members. Other than Chen Jianzhou, he also had a younger sister. His younger sister was a professor in a university, and his brother-in-law was also a teacher in the school. The couple was quite clean. His brother-in-law’s family was also an aristocratic family of poets and scholars, and he had a son. This year, after graduating from university, he had entered the system. In general, this family could really be considered clean.
Chen Jianzhou was a man of his word. He knew Yan Kuan and even had a good relationship with him. Naturally, he would not pretend not to know him or avoid suspicion. He was very natural and generous as he chatted and joked with Yan Kuan at the side. When Jiang Haoting personally brought Old Madam Jiang, Qiu Shaowei, Jiang Haoming, and Nan Ya over, he naturally saw the two people standing in the middle at a glance.
However, because of his appearance, this banquet had reached its climax. Therefore, he only let go when he had some confidence in himself.
“In-laws, birthday girl, happy birthday!”
Old Madam Jiang personally wished Old Master Xie a happy birthday. Everyone stopped what they were doing at the same time and looked over.
The two of them exchanged pleasantries. There was naturally a layer of meaning in everyone’s eyes.
Everyone knew that the Xie family and the Jiang family were tied together. This was considered normal, but it just so happened that something unexpected happened at this time, no one expected that Old Madam Jiang would call her eldest grandson, Jiang Wenyi, at this time. She said to Old Master Xie,”This is my eldest grandson, Wenyi. Do you think he’s suitable for your eldest granddaughter?”
There were so many people in such a place and such an occasion, yet Old Madam Jiang was so blunt. The Xie family could not recover from their shock for a long time. The Jiang family was forcing their way in…
