She Is From The Countryside - Chapter 143

143 you’re my friend

“no, i guessed it myself.” shi yan answered.

Guess?

Jiang Rui forced a smile. How long have you known me? you can already guess it. But I’ve lived in the Jiang family for 19 years and I still can’t figure it out. Am I too stupid? ”

!!
” no, ” shi yan replied softly. ” you can’t tell because everyone in the jiang family is very good to you, including those who know you’re not a child of the jiang family. ”

yes, they’re all very good to me. Everyone in the Jiang family is very good to me. Jiang Rui muttered.

“Everyone’s so nice to me, how can you tell?”

“We just happened to meet.”

“just happened to meet? What did you see?” jiang rui’s tone didn’t fluctuate much even when she asked the question. in the past, her tone would definitely be agitated.

Shi Yan answered her every question patiently,”i’ve encountered some suspicious points, suspicious points that can lead me to a guess.”

After that, there was another half a minute of silence.

“yan, are you the real daughter of the jiang family?” jiang rui suddenly asked.

even someone as calm as shi yan was stunned.

She did not expect Jiang Rui to think in this direction.

” no, my surname is shi. for generations, my surname has always been shi. i have parents, elders, brothers, and younger brothers in my family. ”

“No.” jiang rui let out a breath.

She clutched Shi Yan’s camouflage uniform tightly and leaned her face against Shi Yan’s back. ” that’s good. i almost thought that i had taken what should have belonged to you and made you suffer for so many years. ”

it’s a good thing it’s not you. Otherwise, what would happen to you and my fifth uncle? although you’re not related by marriage, you’re still of the same bloodline. Big families pay a lot of attention to these things.

Shi Yan did not expect Jiang Rui to be so considerate of her at a time like this.

moreover, jiang rui had mentioned jiang che.

Same clan?

Jiang Rui’s mention of this made it easy for her to guess Jiang Che’s identity.

“it’s true that i’ve lived outside for many years, but i’ve never suffered. my life outside has nothing to do with you.”

“and your fifth uncle and i aren’t people who do things recklessly. if we really had this layer of relationship, we wouldn’t have come to this.” Shi Yan said with a helpless smile.

he was helpless about jiang rui’s speculations and worries.

“yan, xuan wanrou doesn’t belong in the same circle as us. even my parents don’t know about this. she’s not capable enough to find out about it first.”

“Do you know how she found out?”

“I don’t know why, but Yan, you’re in school all day like me and don’t have much contact with the outside world. I just thought you’d know.”

“Yes, I know, but I’m just guessing,” Shi Yan didn’t deny it.

“then you must have a basis for your guess.”

“Yan, can you tell me? since i’m not the jiang family’s biological daughter, i should have my own family. are my family members related to xuan wanrou in some way?”

other than the fact that someone at home had accidentally let it slip and xuan wanrou happened to overhear it, she could not think of any other reason.

xuan wanrou really did not have that much ability.

” you’ve met xuan wanrou’s mother before. it’s the noodle restaurant where we went shopping and had noodles the other day. ”

jiang rui held her breath subconsciously.

shi yan’s words continued to reach her ears. she heard shi yan’s light and gentle voice say,”That’s your biological mother.”

Jiang Rui’s hands trembled as she clutched her clothes.

The haggard woman who was being pushed and scolded by Xuan wanrou was her brother’s biological mother?

“Yan, did you know about it?”

she recalled the time when shi yan had kicked xuan wanrou.

“no, i didn’t know at the time.”

jiang rui thought about it and agreed.

If she had known back then, Xuan wanrou probably wouldn’t have just been kicked. She knew that Yan was very protective of her.

just now, for example, xuan wanrou had been strangled.

“what about my biological father? i think xuan wanrou came from a single-parent family.”

Xuan wanrou was used to putting on an act. Few people in school knew that she had a single parent, at least on the surface. Many people even mistook her for a rich family’s daughter.

but jiang rui was not one of them.

Jiang Rui knew that Xuan wanrou had a single parent and her family was very difficult, even though she had never checked on Xuan wanrou.

if it wasn’t the real thing, it would be easy to be exposed.

The people who had been fooled by Xuan wanrou might have realized something, but they simply did not expose Xuan wanrou because they could take advantage of her. She dared to say that not many of Xuan wanrou’s close friends truly treated her as a friend.

shi yan did not answer her. instead, she said, Rui ‘er, you have to ask your mother about your biological father. I can’t say much.

jiang rui fell silent and did not ask further.

They arrived at the 13th dormitory building.

Shi Yan stopped the shared bicycle.

Jiang Rui got out of the car and went up the stone steps.

He stood on the stone steps in front of the dormitory door and called out to her, ” “Yan,”

Shi Yan, who was still sitting on the shared bicycle, looked up.

“Thank you,” she said. Jiang Rui said.

“This sudden news is no small matter to me. If you didn’t give me a hint in advance and stay by my side now, I don’t know what I would be like now.”

you’re calm and quiet, and it’s easy for you to affect the people around you. I’ve been greatly affected by you. If it were me in the past, I definitely wouldn’t be able to keep my calm when I encountered such a thing.

“You’re my friend.” shi yan said with a smile.

“You probably don’t know, but you’re my first friend.”

other than jiang che, the others who were close to him were all family.

Jiang Rui was indeed her first friend.

“like i said before, i’ll always be on your side.”

Jiang Rui looked at her for a few seconds and said, ” “yan, you’re not good at stirring up emotions. it feels weird.”

It was so strange that she was touched.

She had been able to steady herself just now, but now, her eyes seemed to be a little hot.

shi yan smiled. ” go back and have a good sleep after washing up. don’t think too much about it. since it’s already set in stone, we have to face it. avoiding it won’t solve the problem. ” sometimes, losing something might not be a bad thing, because you would get something you never had in return. if you don’t care so much about gains and losses, people will live more easily.”

Jiang Rui was slightly stunned.

“your words have such a deep zen meaning, i don’t understand.”

He waved at Shi Yan. I’ll head upstairs first. You should go back and rest as well. It’s been a long day of military training.

after saying that, she turned around and ran upstairs.

Shi Yan rode her bike away after she disappeared at the end of the corridor.

He locked the car and went upstairs.

shi yan went upstairs to wash up. after washing up, she didn’t put on her pajamas. instead, she put on a set of relatively casual clothes and even put on her coat.

he saw that she was sitting there after changing her clothes. she was not reading a book but holding her phone.

song meilian and the other two looked at each other.

In the end, Ren Kexin gave song Meilian a look, and song Meilian finally asked, ” ” shi yan, there are a lot of posts about you and jiang rui on the campus forum, especially about jiang rui. the discussion is very loud. do you need someone to deal with it? ”

“no need,” Shi Yan said.

Only when the news that Jiang Rui wasn’t the biological daughter of the Jiang family spread like wildfire would there not be any messy discussions if Jiang Rui and Jiang Cheng got together in the future.

“Then is Rui-er, Yingluo, okay?” Ren Kexin probed.

she was not stupid enough to ask if it was true, because someone had recorded the video and posted it on the campus forum. shi yan had told jiang rui personally, so it was unlikely to be false.

“It’ll be fine.” Shi Yan said.

Then, he smiled at them. you don’t have to worry too much. There are many people keeping an eye on this matter. I’ll personally keep an eye on it too. I won’t let anything happen to Rui ‘er.

“That’s good.”

Ren Kexin paused and asked again,”that Xuan wanrou Qianqian?”

Although she asked this question, Ren Kexin and her two other roommates had already guessed it.

in the video, shi yan had said that xuan wanrou thought she was the jiang family’s biological daughter.

others might not think much of it when they saw this, but they had been with shi yan for so many days that they had some understanding of her.

she was not someone who would say such things for no reason.

“It has nothing to do with Xuan wanrou,”

the three of them heaved a sigh of relief.

Ren Kexin said, ” it’s a good thing that I don’t like that Xuan wanrou. I’m really afraid that she’ll be taken advantage of. If she’s really the Jiang family’s biological daughter, she’ll probably go to heaven in the future.

Shi Yan said, ” even if she’s the biological daughter of the Jiang family, she can’t go to heaven. I have many ways to prevent her from entering the Jiang family’s Gate or the Jiang family genealogy.

her expression was as indifferent as ever, and her tone was as calm as ever.

the three of them were shocked.

after a long while, ren kexin gave him a thumbs up.”domineering!”

Shi Yan replied with a faint smile. Her eyes fell on the phone and she said, I’m going out for a while and won’t be back tonight. Maybe I won’t be there for the military training tomorrow either. I’ll ask someone to help me apply for leave.

without waiting for the three to respond, he picked up his bag on the desk and went out.
