Chapter 127 - 127 127 Everything Must Wait Until Jiang Zhe

Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Everything Must Wait Until Jiang Zhe Wakes Up Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Everything Must Wait Until Jiang Zhe Wakes Up “Then hurry up and sever ties with Jiang Zhe!” Liang Jinlan immediately got up from the bed, “No, we have already cut connections with Jiang Zhe, have you made that clear to President Wu?”

“If no one deals with this matter, Jiang Zhe will go to prison!”

Liang Jinlan had absolutely no sympathy: “She brought this upon herself with the things she’s done. Let her take responsibility for her actions; it doesn’t matter to us if she goes to prison as long as it doesn’t implicate us.”

Jiang Zhang still showed some reluctance.

After all, she was raised in the Jiang Family.

Seeing him like this, Liang Jinlan scolded him: “Do you really think you can stand up to President Wu? Jiang Zhe has always been so overbearing, it’s about time someone taught her a lesson! In any case, you are not allowed to interfere in this matter!”

Jiang Zhang wanted to intervene, but indeed, he was powerless.

President Wu was not someone he could afford to offend.

As the two of them were speaking, Jiang Zhang’s phone rang again.

In the middle of the night, Liang Jinlan was quite annoyed.

Just because of Jiang Zhe’s issue, they’d been troubled for far too long. It’s so irritating!

Jiang Zhang still answered the call, then said in surprise, “Is that right? Okay, okay!”

“What happened?” Liang Jinlan asked, displeased.

“My brother said, he’s going to have a word with Jiang Zhe.”

The ‘big brother’ Jiang Zhang was referring to was Jian Xiliang, the legitimate heir of the Jiang Family and the current Minister Jiang with actual power in his hands.

As the illegitimate child of the Jiang Family, Jiang Zhang had longed for recognition from the Jiang Family for many years, especially from Jian Xiliang.

However, over the years, the number of times he had seen Jian Xiliang could be counted on one hand.

The last time Jian Xiliang had any interaction with him was during Jiang Yunxuan’s birthday when Jian Xiliang had sent a gift over.

Liang Jinlan immediately got excited, “Then I need to get up and freshen up, dress up a bit.”

If Jian Xiliang was coming to deal with Jiang Zhe’s situation, it was definitely to give them face.

Then she certainly had to host him properly.

If they could truly be acknowledged by the Jiang Family, their future prospects would be boundless.

…

Jiang Zhe was sleeping soundly.

No matter how big or numerous the issues were, they couldn’t affect her rest.

The Wu Family and Jiang Family had turned upside down, but this had no impact on her whatsoever.

Her phone had been on silent mode long ago, so no one could reach her.

According to Mrs. Wu’s plan, this moment should have been one of overnight interrogation for Jiang Zhe; she should be so tormented that she couldn’t eat or sleep, suffering immensely.

No one would have expected that she was actually sleeping peacefully.

Qin Jingchen didn’t go into her room again, not wanting to wake her with repeated entrances and exits.

Instead, he sat on the sofa outside her room, waiting for her, occasionally handling some information.

Hearing that someone from the Jiang Family wanted to see Jiang Zhe, he raised his eyebrows slightly, “Who?”

“Jian Xiliang,” Fen Ye said.

“We’ll talk after Jiang Zhe wakes up.”

That meant he had no intention of seeing anyone right now.

Fen Ye understood; at this point, even if Jiang Yaowang himself came, he wouldn’t be able to see Jiang Zhe.

As for any sort of interrogation, that was even less likely to happen—it simply wasn’t going to occur.

Liang Jinlan didn’t expect that she and Jiang Zhang would accompany Jian Xiliang on a trip and yet fail to catch even a glimpse of Jiang Zhe.

She stood behind Jian Xiliang, somewhat afraid to speak.

Jian Xiliang might be Jiang Zhang’s older brother, but with his well-maintained appearance, he looked younger than Jiang Zhang, and his presence overshadowed Jiang Zhang’s, instilling a sense of fear in Liang Jinlan.

“So Jiang Zhe is now under interrogation?” Jian Xiliang asked.

“I’m not clear on that, but you won’t be able to see him until after nine o’clock in the morning at least.” The officer receiving Jian Xiliang was not low in rank, but he did not know what exactly was happening with Jiang Zhe.

Liang Jinlan felt somewhat gleeful about Jiang Zhe’s plight.

As if sensing her malice, Jian Xiliang glanced at her.

Liang Jinlan quickly lowered her head.

In reality, she could sense why Jian Xiliang would take the initiative to vouch for Jiang Zhe.

No matter if Liang Jinlan admitted it or not, Jiang Zhe’s name was indeed creating a buzz.

Her previous international piano competition championship, and now the breaking news that she was the writer behind the popular hit songs—all of these accolades had put a glowing halo over her head.

Liang Jinlan knew that there was a lot of hype within that halo around Jiang Zhe.

But outsiders certainly weren’t too clear about that.

Jian Xiliang, whom Liang Jinlan had researched, may have ascended to the position of minister, but he was not short of opportunistic ideas. Just like before, he never took his brother Jiang Zhang to heart and had rarely interacted with him over the years.

However, due to the relationship between Jiang Fanyue and Gu Jiaheng, Jian Xiliang was the first to break the ice and make amends, repairing the brotherly relationship.

Now knowing about the halo surrounding Jiang Zhe, how could he not take advantage of it?

Liang Jinlan was well aware of this but did not dare to gossip about Jiang Zhe in front of Jian Xiliang, so she could only let him have his way.

Finally, it was dawn.

Jiang Zhe had slept well and was in good spirits, blooming like a flower, with a faint pleasure in her eyes and brows.

“Did you sleep well?”

When she came out after washing up, she saw Qin Jingchen putting down breakfast on the coffee table.

“Yes,” she nodded at Qin Jingchen, “didn’t you sleep?”

“I didn’t sleep,” Qin Jingchen nodded, “I dealt with some work-related matters.”

Jiang Zhe hummed a response and sat down to pick up the hot soy milk and took a sip.

Although Qin Jingchen had not slept all night, his spirits were surprisingly good. His eyes shone with a lively brilliance amidst his handsome features.

After breakfast, Qin Jingchen asked her, “Jian Xiliang wants to see you, will you?”

“Let’s meet,” Jiang Zhe nodded.

It wasn’t that she was particularly interested in Jian Xiliang, but she remembered an old incident—she had suffered many grievances during her childhood at the Jiang Family without anyone to care for her.

There was one time when she encountered Jian Xiliang, and he handed her a piece of bread.

Jiang Zhe had never lacked these things, but Jian Xiliang thought she did, and even reached out a helping hand, so seeing him once meant she no longer owed him anything.

Jian Xiliang had waited half the night, expecting to see a haggard Jiang Zhe appear.

But when Jiang Zhe appeared accompanied by the policewoman Ling Lan, he was quite surprised.

The sunlight was just right, and Jiang Zhe walked from the backlight, her body bathed in the morning glow, so bright it made it hard to open one’s eyes.

Jiang Zhang and Liang Jinlan could not help but exchange looks.

Jiang Zhe did not seem like someone who had come to be interrogated, but rather as if she were on a vacation.

“I’d like to speak to Jiang Zhe alone,” Jian Xiliang said in an even tone.

Liang Jinlan had wanted to listen to what they were going to say but under the circumstances, she could only let it go for now.

Jiang Zhe sat down in front of Jian Xiliang, her tone indifferent, “Just say what you want to say.”

“Jiang Zhe, do you remember who I am?” Jian Xiliang’s tone was very gentle.

“Yes, great-uncle,” Jiang Zhe’s impression of him was faint, but she didn’t completely forget.

Jian Xiliang smiled: “Although the great-uncle hasn’t visited you much over the years, I have always been concerned about you. I rushed over immediately last night upon hearing of your trouble.”

Jiang Zhe bowed her head slightly and nodded as a form of gratitude.

“As for this matter, I’ve also looked into it. I don’t want to see you trapped, so I really want to help you.”
