Chapter 413: Let’s See How Su Wan Ends Up!

Before Jiang Xuecheng entered the music room, he heard the melodious sound of Guqin from afar.

It was the melody of ‘Happy Birthday to you’. It was light yet classical.

Jiang Xuecheng’s long and narrow eyes flashed slightly. He smiled and slowly walked forward, carefully pushing open the door that was ajar.

The sound of Jiang Xuecheng opening the door was very soft. It did not disturb Su Wan, who was focused on playing the Guqin.

The warm sunlight shone through the window, and specks of light lingered on Su Wan’s face, making her beautiful face look as gentle and attractive as an angel.

Just as the music ended, Su Wan suddenly heard the sound of applause behind her.

She turned her head in surprise and unexpectedly saw a tall and slender figure.

Su Wan removed her hand from the Guqin string, stood up with a faint smile, and walked quickly toward Jiang Xuecheng.

“Xuecheng, when did you come in?”

Jiang Xuecheng’s thin lips curled up even more when he heard that. He stared at Su Wan, and his pitch-black eyes were filled with a hint of complaint.

“I’ve been here for a while, but you were too busy playing the Guqin to notice me.”

Jiang Xuecheng paused, and his tone was tinged with jealousy.

“Wan Wan, why do I feel like you’re so concerned about grandfather’s birthday present? You’ve been practicing the Guqin for hours every day and neglected me.”

Su Wan was stunned when Jiang Xuecheng’s deep voice entered her ears. When she came back to her senses, she felt both angry and amused.

This man was jealous of his grandfather…?

Su Wan rolled her eyes at Jiang Xuecheng, and then giggled as she wrapped her arms around him.

“How could I ignore you? When it’s your birthday, I’ll definitely pay more attention to you.”

After spending some time together, Su Wan felt that Jiang Xuecheng was actually a little childish deep down. It was not bad to coddle Jiang Xuecheng at the right time.

Su Wan was not good at coaxing people, but ever since she got together with Jiang Xuecheng, she suddenly understood this skill.

Jiang Xuecheng’s gaze swept past Su Wan. The little woman leaned on his shoulder with her innocent and cute expression.

Jiang Xuecheng smiled faintly and could not help but poke Su Wan’s forehead lightly.

“Then the birthday gift you give me must be unique, something you have never given to anyone else before.”

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll do whatever you want.”

Su Wan held Jiang Xuecheng’s hand. Her eyes were as clear as water. There were still many months before Jiang Xuecheng’s birthday, so she was not anxious about this at all.

Moreover, she had already thought of making a birthday cake for Jiang Xuecheng on his birthday. It might not be as delicious as the ones bought outside, but the most important thing was the thought.

Su Wan held Jiang Xuecheng’s hand and pointed to the vase of Hydrangeas in the music room.

“Xuecheng, when teacher Sun entered just now, she asked me why there are so many beautiful flower arrangements in the house. She thought that we have hired a flower arrangement expert to do it.”

Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes lit up at Su Wan’s compliment. He was naturally in a good mood.

“Now that you mention it, I remember it’s time to water the Ghost orchid. Let’s go and have a look.”

***

North Second Street was bustling with traffic at the moment.

The antique Aloes Tea House was extremely quiet. A warm evening breeze blew past and the wind chimes at the entrance of the teahouse rustled.

Sheng An’ning sat elegantly in the teahouse. She raised her hand gently and began to refill a cup of Longjing Green Tea for Sun Yue, who was sitting opposite her.

It had been a long time since they last met. Unknowingly, the master and disciple had been chatting for an entire afternoon.

Sun Yue was a little absent-minded when she saw the indifferent smile on Sheng An’ning’s face.

The worries in her heart gradually eased. It seemed that An’ning had really come to her senses.

“Teacher, why are you looking at me like that? Is there a flower on my face?”

Sheng An’ning smiled mischievously and put the teapot back to its original position.

Sun Yue’s face lit up with a loving glow. Just as she was about to say something, the Tourmalinebracelet on Sheng An’ning’s left wrist slid down, revealing a shallow scar.

Sun Yue’s expression turned cold as she sighed softly.

“An’ning, people who play the Guqin pay the most attention to the care of their hands. Don’t do anything stupid in the future…”

“Teacher, I was stupid in the past. I won’t have any wishful thinking in the future. I heard that you took my sister-in-law in to learn the Guqin. She must be very smart, right?”

***

Sheng An’ning walked out of the Aloes Tea House leisurely in a long white dress.

She looked back at the bamboo forest behind her and raised her head slightly. Her gaze swept across the blue sky.

The dazzling sunlight pierced into Sheng An’ning’s eyes and made her want to cry.

However, this didn’t affect Sheng An’ning’s mood.

The sun today was really nice…

Sheng An’ning curled her lips slightly. The two dimples on her lips were as sweet as crystal grapes.

A determined smile appeared on her beautiful face.

Huh, it was indeed a fruitful interaction with Sun Yue.

With just a few sentences, she got to know from Sun Yue that Su Wan wanted to present a birthday Guqin piece as a gift.

A Guqin version of ‘Happy birthday to you’ was a piece of cake for Sheng An’ning, who had been playing the Guqin since she was a primary school student. When the time came, she would be the first to use this song. She wanted to see how Su Wan would end up!

Sheng An’ning’s exquisitely made-up face was full of smiles. Even the sound of the sirens on the road sounded much more pleasant to the ears.

It seemed Mr. Chen had not lied to her…

However, Mr. Chen was really resourceful. He even knew such trivial matter…

When Sheng An’ning thought of this, her originally smiling face unconsciously darkened. She frowned and a hint of hesitation flashed across her clear black and white eyes.

These few days, she had almost gathered all the relevant information regarding Jiang Zhiyuan’s birthday banquet arrangements.

However, Sheng An’ning was still conflicted about whether she should send it to that mysterious man.

To Sheng An’ning, Mr. Chen gave off a gloomy and terrifying feeling, no matter how sunny the weather was, just like a deserted courtyard.

Sheng An’ning pursed her lips. When she thought of Jiang Haoxuan’s indifferent attitude toward her, the light in her eyes gradually became firmer.

She had also thought of investigating Jiang Haoxuan herself, but Jiang Haoxuan’s behavior was not much different from usual, let alone meeting other women.

He went to work as usual and stayed at home during the holidays. Occasionally, he would go out with a few friends of his age.

Sheng An’ning had even specially sent a private detective to investigate. Every time Jiang Haoxuan went out with someone, he never spoke more than three sentences to another woman. His attitude toward those women who volunteered themselves was cold.

However, with Jiang Haoxuan’s sudden change of heart, Sheng An’ning didn’t quite believe that he hadn’t changed his mind.

Jiang Haoxuan couldn’t have developed Misogyny, could he?

Sheng An’ning shook her head and threw out the absurd thoughts in her head.

She blinked her eyes, and a cold light flashed in her pupils.

At this point, there seemed to be no other way except to make a deal with that devil.

No matter what the truth was, she had to keep a firm grasp on Jiang Haoxuan’s movements. If she did nothing, she was afraid that her position in the Jiang family would be shaken.

This weekend was grandfather Jiang’s birthday party. If she didn’t send out the information, she was afraid that she would make Mr. Chen angry…

She walked to the side of the road, hailed a gray-blue taxi, and left in a flash.
