The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress

Chapter 274: Questions about Jiang Ge, becoming Jiang Ge_1
Ren Qian and the others turned their gaze onto Xu En.

Who was being called “Alian”?

Ren Wanxuan suddenly had a ridiculous idea in her heart, but felt it was impossible, as she had always seen the Ji Family as nothing more than inconspicuous residents of Purest Street.

She never introduced her classmates and friends to her father and grandfather, fearing that Bai Lian would use the Ren Family’s name to act in school.

Until now—

Xiangcheng’s elite, who were keen to make his acquaintance, stopped in front of Bai Lian.

Bai Lian, who was looking down at her phone, looked up and saw Xu En holding a huge wooden box, “…”

Xu En noticed her gaze, “I’ll help you carry it downstairs.”

“…There’s no need,” Bai Lian handed over the exquisitely packaged painting to Xu En.

The other hand took the wooden box from Xu En.

Seeing that she was about to carry the wooden box, Xu En chuckled, always managing to maintain a clever distance when talking to others, warm as if he were a friendly uncle next door, “This is quite…”

Before he could finish speaking, someone with two fingers easily hooked the wooden box.

?

Xu En fell silent.

Bai Lian turned around, nonchalantly pressed the elevator button with her phone.

“Aren’t you coming in to take a look?” Next to her, Xu En didn’t give up, having his assistant solicit guests for him in the banquet hall.

“No, thanks,” Bai Lian shook her head, counting the elevator numbers, “There’s someone waiting for me downstairs.”

It’ll be late in a moment.

Maybe she’ll have to deal with Sister Lin’s sarcastic remarks again.

“Alright then.” Xu En had come to understand the Ji Family’s personalities over time.

The elevator door opened, and he followed Bai Lian, wanting to accompany her downstairs.

Bai Lian used the wooden box to block him, raising an eyebrow, “The guests are many; I’m just here to deliver a painting for my uncle, no need to see me off.”

Xu En had no choice but to stand by the elevator, watching as the number dropped to the first floor, before he looked down at the painting, then turned around to head back.

The three, including Ren Qian, were still standing at the entrance to the banquet hall.

When Xu En came, he only paid attention to Bai Lian, and now he noticed Ren Qian, “Mr. Ren Senior?”

He stopped to greet him.

Ren Qian came to his senses, looking up abruptly, “Mr. Xu, you know Alian?”

Xu En was about to go inside, as Director Liu was waiting for him, but stopped when he heard Ren Qian’s mention of “Alian” and turned his head, “You are?”

“Alian is my son-in-law’s niece,” Ren Qian said with a smile, talking at length, “I didn’t expect you to know her too…”

Niece?

Xu En looked at Ren Qian; he clearly remembered that Bai Lian had not greeted them just now.

In front of Xu En, Bai Lian had always been polite, except towards those she disliked, like Ji Mulan.

Therefore, this time Xu En didn’t bring Ji Mulan along.

Xu En glanced at Ren Wanxuan’s somewhat stiff smile before laughing himself, “Yeah, this child, I persuaded her for a long time, and she wouldn’t come to this banquet, oh I haven’t told you yet, Alian is actually Mulan’s daughter. You see, apart from a son, she is also my only daughter, and I can’t do much with her refusal to come. I had to let her bring some pastries for her grandfather…”

After thinking for a bit.

Xu En also showed the painting in his hands to Ren Qian, “This is a painting personally made by Comrade Shaojun for me. If it weren’t for this painting, she wouldn’t have agreed to come, haha, I need to have it sent back to Jiangjing to hang it up.”

The latter part was indeed the truth.

Ji Shaojun is Ji Mulan’s brother, and his gift to Xu En was naturally to be treasured.

And with Bai Lian’s connection, that was something to be even more careful about.

After speaking, he smiled at Ren Qian and continued his way into the banquet hall, and as he passed by a few partners, he even raised the painting to show off to them generously.

At the entrance to the banquet hall, Ren Qian slowly turned around.

Ren Wanxuan was as if struck by lightning.

She had never been interested in Bai Lian’s background, nor had she had any interest in Ji Shaorong’s other sister; and now she was being told that Bai Lian had connections with the Xu Family?

She didn’t know much about the Xu Family, only that they were the founders of Xinda, but considering the people who came from Beicheng tonight, one could tell how wide the Xu Family’s network was.

Especially since she had witnessed the marginalization of Ren Qian and Chen Gang at the banquet…

“What’s wrong?” Chen Zhu re-entered the banquet hall, his beverage untouched; Chen Gang looked up to ask him.

Coming to his senses, Chen Zhu remembered the day Ren Wanxuan gave Bai Lian the invitation, “I, we just saw Bai Lian outside.”

As he said this.

Chen Zhu looked again at Ji Mulan, who was mingling in the banquet like a fish in water.

Upon a closer look, Ji Mulan’s eyes and eyebrows really resembled Bai Lian’s—could it be that she was actually Bai Lian’s mother?
