Chapter 1201: A Little More Time to Play
"Hey, sister, don't be unreasonable. My brother is speaking up for you. If you dare to speak rudely to him, I won't be kind to you!" At this moment, Ye Ziyan also started to stand up for her brother.
"Not bad at all!" Dongfang Waner turned her head again to look at Jiang Chuan and said, "Good for you, Jiang Chuan. You intentionally called me here today to embarrass me, didn't you? Hmph, just wait and see."
With that, Dongfang Waner pushed Ye Xiao aside and stormed out the door!
"Waner!" Jiang Chuan immediately chased after her.
Meanwhile, Jiang Miaoke was looking at Ye Xiao with a subtle expression.
Ye Xiao of course noticed Jiang Miaoke's gaze and chuckled, "Why are you looking at me like that? Let me tell you, if your brother acts like Chen Shimei, I definitely won't play with him. What's more, to let go of such a beautiful woman, it's outrageous."
"What do you know? You're just meddling here. Now my brother's apology plan is ruined." Jiang Miaoke rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao and said.
"Apology?" Ye Xiao laughed immediately, "Does your brother feel it's hard to find a wife now, so he wants to win back this beautiful woman? Hehe, he should have realized this sooner. Let me tell you, I have a keen eye, and this beauty's figure is definitely..."
As Ye Xiao spoke, he suddenly felt four extremely dangerous glares aiming at him.
Ye Xiao quickly stopped his inner monologue and hurriedly said, "Actually, what I meant was..."
"Enough, stop explaining. Let me tell you, you got it wrong. She's not my brother's girlfriend!" Jiang Miaoke rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao and said.
"What?" Both Ye Xiao and Ye Ziyan were very surprised.
Ye Xiao immediately looked at Jiang Miaoke and asked, "You're not joking, are you? What's this all about then?"
Jiang Miaoke sighed and said, "You see my brother is just a driver for my aunt's family now, right? Actually, you don't know, my brother is a highly educated person with a master's degree from Yan University in Yan Capital City."
"But, your brother is not that old. As far as I know, if he studied for a master's degree, he should be around twenty-five or twenty-six, but your brother doesn't look like someone who just graduated from college."
"Right, he's not fresh out of college," Jiang Miaoke smiled and said, "My brother completed his master's degree at the age of twenty-three, and it's been four years since he graduated."
"But, that seems to have no connection with that girl."
"There's no connection with her!" Jiang Miaoke said, "However, it has a huge connection with one of her best friends."
"Oh?" Ye Xiao and Ye Ziyan immediately became very curious.
Jiang Miaoke then shared with Ye Xiao and Ye Ziyan about her brother's story.
It turns out when Jiang Chuan went to Yan Capital City for university, he went through a special period during which he met a girl. Jiang Chuan was even ready to give up his identity as a Martial Artist for her and wanted to live as an ordinary person. However, the Jiang Family had its own rules. With one order from Mr. Jiang, Jiang Chuan reluctantly left Yan Capital City, and on the day he left, it was pouring rain. The girl fell off the platform while chasing the train and broke her calf. When Jiang Chuan received the news, he still didn't visit her or say a word to her due to the Jiang Family's orders, which completely broke the girl's heart.
"And then?" Ye Ziyan couldn't help but look at Jiang Miaoke and ask.
Jiang Miaoke shook her head and said, "I don't know, she seems to have disappeared since then. I only know that she's Dongfang Waner's best friend; I haven't heard anything else about her."
"Well, you can't really blame Jiang Chuan for this!" Ye Xiao, who had been silent, sighed and said.
"How can you not blame Jiang Chuan? He completely betrayed that girl's feelings!" Ye Ziyan immediately said angrily, "Such a man should never be forgiven."
"In a Martial Artist family, the first rule in the family code is probably the family interests above all else, and anyone can be sacrificed for the sake of the family, let alone a romantic relationship," Ye Xiao said.
Ye Ziyan said again, "Could it be that those who set this terrible rule don't have feelings?"
"Whether they have feelings or not, it's a different matter. If Jiang Chuan gave up his qualification to be a Martial Artist, it would mean the decline of the Jiang Family in his generation. To put it harshly, once the older generation passes away, his generation would be completely done for," Ye Xiao said, "As family managers, they have the obligation to consider the family's long-term interest."
"But he betrayed the girl's feelings, that's an undeniable fact." Ye Ziyan stubbornly said.
"This..." Ye Xiao understood that what Ye Ziyan said was not wrong, and he smiled slightly without saying a word.
But at this moment, Jiang Chuan's voice came from outside.
"Life is full of helplessness, what can I do?"
Jiang Chuan walked into the private room, and Jiang Miaoke immediately looked at him and said, "Brother, what about Sister Waner?"
"She's gone," Jiang Chuan said.
"Your face..." Jiang Miaoke suddenly saw the red marks on Jiang Chuan's cheeks and asked in surprise.
Jiang Chuan waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, but indeed I'm sorry for today, because of me, everyone..."
Ye Xiao patted Jiang Chuan on the shoulder and pointed to a seat, smiling, "Sit down."
"That's not appropriate!" Jiang Chuan immediately shook his head and said, "I should be your subordinate now."
"But now you're the brother of my prospective girlfriend," Ye Xiao said with a smile.
"Who is your prospective girlfriend?" Jiang Miaoke blushed and said angrily after hearing Ye Xiao's words.
"Then who are you to me?" Ye Xiao looked at Jiang Miaoke and said with a smile, "Or should I say you're my wife? We haven't had a proper wedding ceremony, don't overthink it too much!"
"Who's overthinking?" Jiang Miaoke glared at Ye Xiao angrily and said, "Ye Xiao, I'm telling you, this game is over."
"Oh? You said it," Ye Xiao said with a smile, "Aren't you afraid..."
When Jiang Miaoke heard Ye Xiao say this, she instantly thought of Feng Hai. Of course, Feng Hai is already dead, but Jiang Miaoke didn't know. So when Ye Xiao finished talking, Jiang Miaoke snorted and said, "Fine... we can play a little longer."
