Tang Wan brought small gifts for everyone in the Jiang Family, and the portion for Jiang Yanting’s family was prepared and set aside to be taken to Shen Zhixian the next day.

”By the way, Wanwan, when you have some time in the next few days, come with me to visit Xiaowu’s grandfather. He’s really looking forward to seeing you,” Fan Mingyu said with a smile.

”Alright, you set the time.” Speaking of which, Tang Wan had yet to meet Jiang Jinsang’s family. They had visited during the New Year holidays, but Tang Wan wasn’t at the Jiang Family home at the time. In fact, she hadn’t met them at all.

...

The next day, Tang Wan attended a meeting at the Qi Group, and while she was there, she took the opportunity to give the gifts meant for Jiang Yanting’s family to Shen Zhixian.

”You’ve brought so much stuff; it must have cost you a lot,” Shen Zhixian said, somewhat embarrassed.

”It’s all for the kids, not worth much.” Tang Wan sat next to him during the meeting. ”I heard you and my brother...”

Just as she was about to chat more with Shen Zhixian, people started coming over to greet her one after another. Since the Cuiyu incident, Tang Wan’s face had become well-known in the circle, and many agents from entertainment companies were at today’s meeting, besides the staff from ”Feng Que,” busy with costumes and makeup.

The future lady of the Jiang Family—who wouldn’t want to curry favor with her? Even just being seen in front of her was a good thing.

When Tang Wan’s studio had issues before, everyone was busy distancing themselves, afraid their own artists would get dragged in. Now, however, they wished they could cling to her coattails.

Tang Wan just politely greeted them, accepting their business cards one by one, without any intention of forging deeper connections.

”You’re quite popular,” Shen Zhixian teased in a low voice.

”If they knew you’re the Xie Family’s young aunt and going to marry my brother, they’d definitely be busy trying to curry favor with you.”

The Xie Family’s annual meeting was, after all, an internal and relatively private affair, so aside from those in the Beijing circle, not many outsiders had seen her.

There were rumors that this young aunt of the Xie Family was going to inherit half of the Xie Family’s fortune, and Shen Zhixian seemed just like any average person in his conduct, not at all like someone inheriting billions.

Once when they gossiped, they even discussed the Xie Family’s secrets right in front of her.

They painted her as a pitiful little cabbage with a sad story, and there were some details that even Shen Zhixian, the person directly involved, didn’t know!

”Hey—did you see this? No idea who’s behind this leak. Couldn’t be one of your artists, could it?”

”You didn’t see? The leak is about the secrets of a major family, not the entertainment industry.”

”A major family? Who?”

...

The meeting hadn’t started yet, and there seemed to be a heated discussion going on among the agents from a few companies across the room.

”Miss Tang, do you know who they’re talking about?” Someone passed a smartphone to Tang Wan.

A hot search for [See you Thursday] claimed it would reveal big news about a powerful family from the Beijing circle. Lots of people were guessing because it wasn’t about the entertainment industry; Tang Wan might know more.

”I don’t know,” Tang Wan replied with a smile. The news didn’t specify who was involved, only that it was explosive.

But the comments below were leading in a different direction...

[Could it be that young master Qi is going public.]

[Qi Zeyan? Does he have a partner?]

[Haven’t Jiang’s fourth master and he been seen together recently? Could it be them!]

[The cult CP; I’m here for it.]

...

Qi Zeyan had initially wanted to watch the drama unfold from the sidelines, but the gossip had unexpectedly landed on his own head. What the heck was this? How had it turned into something about him and Jiang Chengsi?

At the moment, Jiang Chengsi was at home, carefully cleaning his beloved little motorcycle. A friend had come over specifically to ask about the truth of the matter, but he merely smiled without saying a word.

It was as if he were tacitly confirming the rumors, and the hot search shot to number one, with [Qi Zeyan, Jiang Chengsi] taking second place. This turn of events really annoyed Qi Zeyan.

You’re not clarifying and just laughing it off, really?
