Chapter 679: Jiang Family’s unique ruler, the invitation from President Jian_2
Last time he mentioned that he only had one relative, which was his aunt.
Bai Lian “hmm”ed, still waiting for what he’d say next, but Jiang Fulai didn’t continue speaking. He just gave Bai Lian a conclusion, “Just letting you know, everyone else doesn’t matter.”
Young Master Jiang, the unique ruler of the Jiang Family, never used to take other people into consideration in his schedule, mentioning them only to change the subject.
After all, even the current second-in-command, Jiang Xijue, hadn’t met Bai Lian in person yet.

The two of them walked all the way to Shanhai Apartment.
...
The street lights weren’t on, and there were many people outside at this hour. A few recognized Bai Lian, but because of the intimidating man by her side, they didn’t dare to strike up a conversation with her—it would have taken courage to even glance his way.
The two made their way back to 303, where Ning Xiao and Tang Ming had already returned and were looking at Zhang Shize’s papers.
Pu Xiaohan was down in 103.
Bai Lian went to 103 to get the fish soup Shen Qing had left for them. Jiang Fulai pushed open the door of the study, set down Bai Lian’s laptop, and helped her print out the documents. The printer buzzed away, and he felt oddly at peace, as though time had stood still, while looking at the door.
103.
By the time Bai Lian came down, Director Lance and Chief Chen were playing mahjong with Ji Heng in the lobby downstairs.
Xu En and Ji Shaojun stood behind Lance, advising him on how to play mahjong.
This group of people was smoking. Although the glass door of the courtyard was open, the scent of smoke was still heavy.
Shen Qing brought out a bowl of soup for Bai Lian and urged her to go up quickly.
Director Lance put down his cigarette. He was rarely this leisurely, and when he saw Bai Lian, he nodded, “The day after tomorrow at six in the evening, I’ll have Old Hu come to pick you up.”
He was talking about the music exchange event.
Bai Lian, who was already standing at the door, heard him and made an “OK” gesture in response.
Pu Xiaohan, who had been asking Xu En questions, saw Bai Lian coming back and went upstairs with her.
After the two went up, Xu En finally had the chance to chat with Ji Shaojun. “I heard that Chairman Mu is going to help you and Mu Lan with a ceremonial return to the Clan?”
Ji Mulan was still recovering; she had bled a lot, and her body was not in good shape. The Mu Family had yet to inform Ji Mulan of the plans, but based on Xu En’s and Ji Shaojun’s understanding of her, she would definitely agree to hold the ceremony.
