Chapter 70: Who Does Su Wan Look Like?

Jiang Zhiyuan shifted his vision to Luo Xiuxiu. The sharpness in his eyes vanished and he looked gentle.

“I’m just curious as to what kind of girl Xuecheng would take a fancy to. Can’t I ask?”

Luo Xiuxiu ignored him but held Su Wan’s hand. She said smilingly, “Wan, you must be hungry. Come, let’s go in.”

Although Luo Xiuxiu was old, she wasn’t weak. She held Su Wan’s hand and brought her in.

Su Wan only heard someone snort from behind and it was obviously Jiang Zhiyuan. She found it quite funny.

Before she came to the Jiang family’s old house, she kept imagining the renowned old man to be unfathomable but from what she just saw, he was far from what she had imagined. He was quite an easygoing old man.

When they entered, Su Wan could feel the unique style of the villa’s interior. From the outside, the Jiang family’s old house was a circular golden summit, a classic Northern Europe style, but no one would expect the inside to be a world of its own. The interior integrated the characteristics of the East and the West.

The chandelier in the living hall was emitting dim light. The floor which led them into the house were made of tiles with patterns of blue and white Chinese porcelain. Those who have just entered the house would surely be attracted to the red sandalwood carved screen in the middle.

Su Wan wondered in her heart and couldn’t help but to ask Jiang Xuecheng about the person who had thought of this decoration style.

Jiang Xuecheng smiled but didn’t say anything. He merely pointed to the front.

Su Wan followed the direction of Jiang Xuecheng’s finger in surprise and saw a pair of middle-aged man and woman walking down the stairs toward them.

Both of them were not young anymore but they had aged well. The man was tall and had an upright posture and a steady temperament.

The middle-aged woman, who was wearing a dull-colored floral cheongsam, was eye-catching. Her brows were delicate and beautiful and every gesture of hers had a noble charm. One could see that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.

These two people were undoubtedly Jiang Xuecheng’s father, Jiang Wei, and his mother, Xu Ziyao.

When Su Wan determined their identity, she secretly praised Jiang Xuecheng’s parents for passing their good genes down to him.

This time, Jiang Xuecheng didn’t have to hint at her to greet his parents. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, Su Wan bowed slightly and smilingly greeted, “Hello Father, Mother, I’m Su Wan.”

Jiang Wei nodded smilingly but Xu Ziyao was cool. It was only when a light flashed through her eyes that she asked, “You are Teacher Xie’s granddaughter?”

Xu Ziyao spoke in a special and unhurried manner. Listening to her made one feel good but at the same time slightly alienated.

Su Wan was alert and had noticed that among the four people in the Jiang family, only Xu Ziyao was distant when talking to her. She was her future mother-in-law, so even if they would not meet often, their relationship should be built.

Su Wan’s smile remained on her exquisite face and the little dimples on her cheeks showed. Her voice was clearer and softer.

“Yes, Grandfather always mentions you. He says you were very outstanding in your year.”

Xu Ziyao nodded elegantly and then as if absorbed in thought, examined Su Wan.

Her smile was natural and unintentional. The way she spoke was liberal and dignified, and she knew Su Wan must be a gentle and quiet girl.

However, when she looked carefully, she thought Su Wan looked familiar. This was the first time they met, so why did she have such feeling?

Before waiting for Xu Ziyao to think it through, Jiang Wei who was standing beside her spat out his doubts. “Hey, look, don’t you think this girl looks like someone we know?”

Everyone in the house looked toward Su Wan, as if piercing through her and it was terrifying.

Luo Xiuxiu beamed as she caught a handful of her grey hair and turned around. “Wan is so pretty. Isn’t she a replica of my younger self?”

Jiang Zhiyuan laughed and he looked at Luo Xiuxiu while boldly shaking his hand.

“The older you get, the more shameless you are. This little girl is so gentle and refined while you were fierce and tough when you were young. How can you compare the two of you?”

Luo Xiuxiu widened her eyes and unconvinced, she slapped his arm. “To think about it, I was a flower in the military region and I had may suitors. Don’t you dare forget because of old age and not admit what happened that year.”

When she saw the elderlies’ heated up argument, Su Wan was helpless. She looked toward Jiang Xuecheng to seek for his help. Jiang Xuecheng held her shoulder casually and said, “All of you are so friendly that you’ve scared Wan Wan. Alright, let’s eat.”

Beyond Su Wan’s expectation, the four elderlies stopped the previous conversation and walked with tacit agreement towards a round table behind the screen.

What was this?

Although this was Su Wan’s first time in the Jiang family’s old house, she could feel the weird atmosphere in the house.

Something was not quite right.

When they were seated, Su Wan finally understood where that feeling came from. Any ordinary family would not allow someone junior to make decisions, what more in the Jiang family where the elderlies were all influential.

However, this family seemed to be totally centered around Jiang Xuecheng!

Just now, when Luo Xiuxiu made Jiang Zhiyuan stop asking her questions, he merely snorted but when Jiang Xuecheng opened his mouth, everyone walked to the dining table quietly and found a seat to sit down at. There wasn’t a moment of hesitation!

At that moment, Su Wan suddenly understood why Jiang Xuecheng dared to say that his family members were all easy to get along with and that they respected his views.

The Jiang residence was huge but Jiang Xuecheng stayed alone at Fontainebleau. She remembered Ah Si had once said that Luo Xiuxiu had been searching for a woman for Jiang Xuecheng, but had never once forced him to attend a blind date.

However, the Jiang family didn’t look like a family who would spoil their child, so why were they following every word Jiang Xuecheng said?

Su Wan was baffled.

Su Wan massaged her brows as she couldn’t find the answer. Just when she was about to get some food, a bulging red packet was shoved in front of her.

Feeling surprised, Su Wan raised her head and saw Xu Ziyao’s elegant and graceful face.

Su Wan knew she couldn’t decline in front of everyone. Although she didn’t feel good accepting, she still accepted and thanked her while looking down.

“Thank you, Mother.”

Xu Ziyao nodded slightly and looked at Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng. In the end, she started to speak.

“You and Xuecheng got married in such a haste. Since he was young, he was never a child who made us worry. Marriage is such a big matter but he did not even ask for our views. As a mother, I won’t say much as long as my son likes you. I just wish both of you a good life together.”

Being looked at by Xu Ziyao, coupled with what she had just said, Su Wan understood that Xu Ziyao was not very satisfied with her as her daughter-in-law but she did not hate her either.
