Chapter 153: Your Eldest Daughter

“Yi Lan’s market positioning and price are displayed here. We can’t provide you with expensive clothes, but we can guarantee that the clothes you wear are the latest style from our family. Some are the latest style that hasn’t been released on the market.” Lan Yijie waved his hand and said happily, “From now on, you will be wearing the new styles that haven’t been released on the market first.”

One could imagine Jiang Xun sporting the outfit first and then having the outfit sold out as soon as the clothes were on the market.

On Friday, the day before the fund business banquet.

Jiang Xun received a call from Wang Yicheng, claiming he had found a place. “When are you free today? Let’s go and take a look at the place. If you are satisfied, you can sign the contract directly. If you can move out in time today, you don’t have to worry about having nowhere to go even if you come back late after the banquet tomorrow night.”

“So soon?” Jiang Xun didn’t expect Yicheng to be so efficient.

“It just so happens that there’s a particularly suitable place,” Yicheng said with a smile.

“I’m free this afternoon,” Jiang Xun said.

Therefore, the two arranged to look at the house at 1:30 in the afternoon. “I’ll pick you up at your campus at 1:30. It’s near Peking University. It’s only a fifteen or sixteen minutes walk. It’ll be faster to drive.”

Jiang Xun thought that if the place was suitable, she could take a detour from her residence to Peking University every day after moving in.

At 1:30 pm, Yicheng arrived at the gate of Peking University on time and waited for Jiang Xun.

Yicheng drove the car with Jiang Xun to look for the residence.

The neighborhood looked very high-end. It was well landscaped, and there was a special track for residents who liked to jog in the morning.

Jiang Xun was already delighted with this environment.

After meeting up with Yicheng and the agent, they went into the place to have a look. Jiang Xun was very satisfied.

The house was a high-rise, so there was naturally an elevator.

But what satisfied Jiang Xun most was that she could squat and jump up the stairs in the stairwell.

The house had two rooms and two halls. It was enough for her to live alone.

Although it was two rooms, the area was more than 130 square meters.

The living room was very spacious. The master and second bedrooms had bathrooms, and the master bathroom had a bathtub.

The decoration was simple and neat.

“The landlord pays great attention to the hygiene of the room. Even if he doesn’t live here, he will hire someone to clean it once a week. So it’s not a problem to pack your stuff and move in today. If you are still worried, you can also do some simple cleaning,” the agent said to Jiang Xun. “No one has moved in since the furniture was changed. The smell has been filtered out.”

Jiang Xun nodded. She didn’t smell the formaldehyde from the new furniture.

“How much is the rent?” Jiang Xun was already very satisfied with the place.

With her current income, she could afford not to worry about the rent.

“Here is 30,000 yuan a month,” the young man said.

“That’s no problem,” Jiang Xun said to Yicheng. “Brother Wang, I think this place is good. Shall we sign the contract?”

“Sure.” Yicheng was naturally happy.

The agent quickly took out the contract and contacted the landlord to sign the contract with Jiang Xun.

Things went smoothly. Jiang Xun decided to pack up and move everything over today.

“Brother Wang, thank you so much for finding such a good house so quickly.” Although it was a rented place, it was still her place, so she felt unspeakably at ease.

“I just happened to run into it.”

Yicheng thought to himself. Qin Mufeng had hurriedly prepared such a place for Jiang Xun.

The pressure was all on Mufeng.

He didn’t do much.

Even the landlord was someone Mufeng had hired to act for the role.

Mufeng didn’t even dare to lower the rent not to let Jiang Xun suspect him. So instead, he only took an average of the rent in the vicinity and gave it to Jiang Xun.

Yicheng sighed silently in his heart. Mufeng put in much effort!

Jiang Xun returned to the dormitory and quickly packed her things, ready to move out.

Her three roommates were reluctant about her leaving, but Jiang Xun had already told them it would be more convenient for them if she moved out.

Therefore, her three roommates weren’t too surprised about her moving out.

“It’s near the central campus. So if you guys are hanging out and come back late, you won’t be able to enter the dormitory. But you can still stay at my place. How convenient,” Jiang Xun said with a smile. “I usually return to the dormitory to rest between classes. So it’s not like I’m never coming back.”

The three roommates thought about it and agreed. Only then did their sad feelings fade away.

Jiang Xun moved and tidied up. Then, in the blink of an eye, it was Saturday, the day of the fund’s business banquet.

The fund also invited a few celebrities to perform and entertain.

When Jiang Xun entered the banquet hall, she glanced at the venue and mentally divided it into two sections.

One section was where the male guests were drunk and loud. A few male guests came with a female companion and did not ask their female companions to chat with other female guests.

The female companions of these male guests were obviously at least twenty years younger than them.

The other female guests were chatting in groups of three or five. They were chatting with rosy faces and fake smiles.

Jiang Xun found that the Jiang family was also there.

Jiang Chengye brought Jiang Jixuan to meet her uncles and seniors in the business field.

Feng Nianzhen nudged Jiang Yuexi to chat with the female guests.

“Where is your eldest daughter?” Mrs. Zang’s round face was filled with the need to gossip.

Nianzhen had already expected to be asked questions about Jiang Xun at such an occasion.

She was prepared and put on a melancholic expression at the right time. She sighed. “It’s said that stepmothers are to be. I finally understand it. I thought that the child was already an adult. Even if she didn’t accept me, she could at least maintain her superficial politeness. I didn’t expect…”

Nianzhen shook her head and sighed. “I want Jiang Xun to come and see the world together, too. That child has been living in the countryside since she was young. If she suddenly came to the city, there would be many things that she would not be used to. I only want to bring her out more and introduce her to more people. I want her to participate in more such occasions. Once she has seen more, she will not be so shy when she goes out in the future, but…”

Nianzhen wanted to say something, but she stopped herself. Yuexi followed up with an aggrieved tone, “Mother is doing this with good intentions, but Jiang Xun feels that Mother is deliberately trying to affect her reputation. As she had always been in the countryside and had never been to such an occasion, her words and actions were inevitably inappropriate. When she is embarrassed and is scolded by Dad, she would turn around to blame Mother and… and scold me. Then, when she is unhappy, she would attack me.”

“Oh, this is hard on you.” Mrs. Lin clicked her tongue and shook her head. “After all, she came from the countryside and had never been in contact with these things since she was young. Things that we think are common may be foreign to her. Maybe she feels a sense of inferiority. The worse she behaves shows that she is more embarrassed. But then, she might feel you are doing it on purpose.”

“She’s been raised in the countryside for so many years. She’s just a country bumpkin. It’s better if she doesn’t bring her out. Otherwise, she’ll be embarrassed.”

As soon as Mrs. Qu finished speaking, she heard Chief Mrs. Zang say in surprise, “Oh, isn’t that the popular influencer that has been on the rise recently?”
