She Is From The Countryside - Chapter 500

500 An unsurprised guest

like shi yan, jiang che thought that it was a neighbor outside the courtyard, because there had been no sound of any vehicles approaching before that.

the door to the courtyard opened, but the people standing outside were not his neighbors.

the person had an absolutely exquisite face. he was at least 1.85 meters tall and had no expression on his face, which made him look a little cold and serious.

!!
He stood at the bottom of the steps and had to raise his head slightly to meet Jiang Che’s eyes. But even so, his aura did not weaken in front of the fifth Lord Jiang.

Jiang che had never interacted with this person before, but he had seen him.

The capital was only so big, and there were only so many people in the circle. They could always meet on some occasions.

it was the young master of the shi family, shi poran.

shi poran obviously did not come alone. a few steps behind him stood a girl in her twenties.

He was also a familiar face.

“fifth lord jiang,” Shi poran spoke first.

“young master shi,” jiang che nodded slightly. ” young master shi, please come in. ” she stepped back to make way for him.

“Thank you.” Shi poran glanced at him and nodded.

He did not stand on ceremony and entered the house.

The girl behind him hurriedly nodded at Jiang che in greeting and followed him.

ever since shi yan and jiang che came to this small courtyard, there had been guests, such as jiang rui and her group, who had just left a few days ago.

logically speaking, if someone came over, even if they didn’t bring any gifts, they would at least bring some luggage. shi poran and the other two had come empty-handed.

This made Jiang che a little concerned.

She didn’t bring any luggage, which meant that she wouldn’t be staying here. It didn’t matter if they could stay here or not, as long as they didn’t think about taking the people who were originally living here with them.

It was not that he was petty and did not want to be disturbed when he had previously agreed to spend the new year alone with miss Shi. It was just that he was very sure that if they were to spend the new year in another place, miss Shi would not be happy. At least, she would not be happier than when she was alone with him.

Shi poran walked into the courtyard, and Jiang che naturally followed.

Shi Yan was standing in the courtyard. When Jiang che opened the courtyard door, she saw the person who had come. The smile on her face froze for a moment, and she fixed her eyes on the person standing outside the courtyard.

shi poran’s appearance at this time was a little out of shi yan’s expectations, but to be honest, shi yan wasn’t too surprised.

Yanyan, it’s cold outside. Bring the guest to the living room. I’ll make a pot of tea.

When fifth Lord Jiang personally went to make tea, even Shi poran couldn’t help but stop and look at him. jiang che didn’t show any signs of awkwardness. he nodded at him and went straight to the kitchen.

“i’ll go help!”

song yu quickly waved at shi yan.”shi yan!”

she then ran to the kitchen to help.

Only Shi Yan and Shi poran were left in the courtyard.

Shi poran just looked at Shi Yan without saying a word. In the end, Shi Yan opened her mouth and called out softly, ” “Big brother,”

shi poran didn’t reply.

He was still staring at her.

He was expressionless, and his gaze was not scary. He just stared at her without any emotion.

It was precisely this that Shi Yan couldn’t bear it.

it must be known that to this day, the only person who could make shi yan admit defeat in a face-to-face confrontation was jiang che.

she knew that she was feeling guilty.

She had never felt this way when she saw her parents and third brother again after nine years. she thought that she could be as calm as she was in front of her big brother, but now that she had seen him, she knew that she wasn’t.

She had been gone for nine years, and Shi Boran had been tense for nine years.

For a person who had never taken power and status seriously, how much effort would he have to put in to amass the power of such a large family in nine years? Shi Yan knew it without even asking.

shi poran originally didn’t need to bear all this.

everything started because of her selfish departure.

after staring at her for a while, a gust of cold wind blew. shi yan subconsciously adjusted the scarf around her neck. shi poran opened his mouth.

“let’s go in first.”

Unlike the others, Shi poran did not look around as soon as he entered the courtyard. He did not even need Shi Yan to lead the way. He easily found the living room.

he seemed to be very familiar with everything here.

However, Shi Yan knew very well that no one from the Shi family had stepped into this courtyard for the past nine years. To be more precise, no one from the Shi family had set foot in the crescent moon Bay Village for the past nine years.

“Dou Zhao has told me what happened here.”

After sitting down, Shi poran didn’t dawdle and went straight to the main topic.

he was referring to gu yu’s trouble.

“dou chao and song yu are both my men. you should have guessed it long ago,” he looked at shi yan.

Shi Yan nodded.

she had definitely guessed it, but she wasn’t 100% sure. it was only when she saw song yu that she was completely sure.

“song yu was sent here when she just entered the first year of junior high. at that time, big brother qianqian should be in need of people, so she shouldn’t have been sent here.”

“dou chao is a subordinate, but song yu isn’t.” shi poran said.

“she’s the orphan of an elder i’m familiar with. her parents met with an accident when they were out on a mission, and there were no other elders at home, so i brought her here to take care of her. It was her own idea to come here to study. She’s a stubborn child and insisted on coming here, so I could only go along with her wishes.”

” you didn’t notice it for six whole years, which surprised me a little. ”

In Shi poran’s eyes, Shi Yan was an extremely shrewd person. Even if she hadn’t noticed it in the first two years, it wasn’t to the extent that she wouldn’t notice it after six years.

but that was the truth.

It was precisely because this was the truth that Shi poran’s expression became even more tense as he looked at Shi Yan.

to what extent did he not care about his life? only such a smart person would not pay attention to everything around him?

this wasn’t just a lack of desire, it was an attitude of life that could only be obtained when one was completely indifferent to life and death.

at such a young age, he was already indifferent to life and death. as his brother, shi poran had mixed feelings.

Now that they met again and saw her so lively, these mixed emotions were even more intense.

Shi Yan might have seen what Shi poran’s eyes meant, but she chose to pretend that she didn’t.

“It’s because Song Yu hid it well,” she said with a smile.

Shi poran didn’t continue on this topic. Instead, he said,”It’ll be the new year in two days.”

shi yan subconsciously clenched her hands that were resting on her legs.

At this moment, Jiang che came in with the tea.

song yu obviously couldn’t help.

she didn’t dare to get close to big boss when he was making tea, especially after he obviously didn’t need her help. They could only wait outside the kitchen for the boss to finish making the tea and follow him from a distance when he came over.

jiang che brought the tea over and wanted to pour it himself. shi yan had originally planned to let her do it, but jiang che did not allow her to.

He poured a cup of tea and handed it to Shi poran,”Young master Shi, please have some tea.”

His appearance interrupted their conversation.

Jiang che had clearly heard Shi poran say that ” the new year is in two days “. as for whether he had interrupted them on purpose, no one knew.

Jiang che poured a cup for Song Yu, who was sitting beside Shi Boran. Song Yu took it in fear.

“I hope I’m not interrupting your conversation?” Jiang che asked Shi poran very politely.
