23.Chapter 23 The opportunity for a slap in the face has come
Author: Lin Shenzhishi
Jiang Ning never expected that Jiang Yaoping would call him personally.
The other party's attitude on the phone was very friendly, and the opening remarks were a lot of greetings, which sounded extremely sincere.
"Xiao Ning, grandpa knows that you have resentment in your heart, but you don't even recognize grandpa?"
"No, I've been busy with schoolwork recently, so I don't have time to see you!" Jiang Ning replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
Jiang Yaoping lives in a resort in the suburbs. For people without a car, a round trip would take most of a day, so she has not visited her since she returned to China.
Of course, the main reason is that there are always people secretly obstructing it.
"Since you don't have time to see me, I'll have to go see you!"
Before Jiang Ning could respond to what she meant, she heard the other party ask, "Are you at school? I'm at the Yun Gate."
She was startled, and then replied: "I'll be there right away."
At the school gate, Jiang Yaoping stood alone under a camphor tree, leaning on a cane.
He neither took a car, nor was he accompanied by a bodyguard. He was also wearing the most ordinary woolen jacket, casual pants, and a gray baseball cap.
Seeing the girl walking lamely in the distance, he immediately spread his legs and hurried to meet her.
"Girl, what's wrong with your legs?"
Jiang Ning frowned and was embarrassed to look at the other person.
"I accidentally sprained it." She responded softly.
Then he looked around again and asked why he was alone.
Jiang Yaoping smiled and said, "I heard about you at school. If I come to see you in a luxury car again, I'm afraid it will cause you more trouble."
Jiang Ning was a little touched, she knew that the old man was sincere.
Unfortunately, her interaction with the other party was limited to one month when she was taken back to Jiang's family when she was six years old.
In the following ten years, he was only his nominal grandfather.
After not seeing each other for so many years, Jiang Ning didn't know how to get along with him.
In the silence, only embarrassment surrounded the two of them.
In Jiang Yaoping's heart, he felt deeply indebted to his granddaughter, and he tried his best to keep her in the Jiang family.
But in the end, he agreed to what his son and daughter-in-law did because of face issues.
"Xiao Ning, since you're back, go back to Jiang's house. I'll take care of your parents."
Jiang Ning knew what the other party wanted to say, and there was no need to let the topic continue.
When Jiang Tianhua used her as a bargaining chip and pushed her onto his business partner's bed, her emotional value towards the Jiang family had already declined to a negative number.
"Grandpa, I will go back to see you often in the future."
How could Jiang Yaoping be so smart and unable to understand the meaning of this sentence?
He had heard about some of Jiang Tianhua's previous behaviors from his subordinates, and he had also scolded his son on the phone.
If you think about it, it would be difficult for anyone to accept or forgive this kind of thing.
He did not force the other party, but comforted him with a few gentle words.
The two stood at the school gate chatting for about ten minutes. Later, Jiang Yaoping answered the phone and left first.
Jiang Ning did not go back to the dormitory, but called Sun Mengying to tell her that she was going home first.
She sat at the KFC across the road and waited for Su Nian to pick her up.
A little before three o'clock, the eye-catching red supercar stopped by the side of the road.
When Su Nian was sitting in the car about to make a phone call, the passenger door was opened.
Jiang Ning got into the car and said, "Old Town, EA Studio."
Su Nian turned the steering wheel and growled: "You damn woman, you really treat me like a taxi!"
Jiang Ning lowered her head and fiddled with her phone, "Well, it's still free!"
Su Nian died.
Forty minutes later, at the door of EA studio.
Jiang Ning saw a familiar white Bentley, and her eyebrows jumped involuntarily.
Su Nian turned off the car and prepared to get out of the car, but saw no movement around her.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
Jiang Ning raised her chin and said, "Ms. Ye's car."
After the words fell, Su Nian's face showed a bit of excitement.
"Okay Jiang Xiaoning, here's your chance to slap you in the face, get out of the car quickly and take a walk!"
Jiang Ning: "."
EA is a private custom brand that has become popular around the world in the past two years. Its products include not only clothing, but also various types of jewelry.
Because it is a private customization, the target customer group is relatively small, and it is mainly sought after by some upper class ladies and wives abroad.
It was introduced into the country last year. In addition to some aristocratic daughters and wealthy ladies, female stars in the entertainment industry are also mainstream consumer groups.
As the customer base increases, the customization cycle will be longer, so customizing a set of EA clothing in China requires an appointment two months in advance;
If you also need to match jewelry, the appointment cycle is half a year.
In a studio with a low-key and cold design, the store's chief designer is personally receiving distinguished guests.
"Ms. Ye, Miss Jiang, I'm really sorry, I really didn't find anything related to you two in EA's customer information."
Ye Lan's face was a little ugly. She emphasized many times that she was not an EA customer before, but she was willing to pay a high price to buy a finished dress today.
Probably because communication failed, her attitude has become unfriendly.
Jiang Ying said to the designer with a smile on her face: "Do you think this is okay? Give me the contact information of the owner of the dress my mother is interested in, and we will communicate with each other and see if it works."
"You can customize clothes in EA, who do you think cares about the extra money you spend?" Su Nian couldn't help but ridiculed as soon as he walked in.
This sounds unpleasant, but the truth is really true.
The store designer glanced at the door, and a strange color immediately appeared in his eyes.
Jiang Ning narrowed her eyes and gave the other party a hint.
When Ye Lan turned to look at the door, a hint of unhappiness appeared on her face.
"Sister? Are you here to buy clothes too?"
Jiang Ying acted very affectionately, but then said with a disappointed look on her face: "It's a pity that EA doesn't sell ready-made clothes. Customization needs to be made two months in advance!"
"Jiang Xiaoning, do you know them?" Su Nian asked knowingly.
Jiang Ning knew that her best friend wanted to vent her anger on her, but unfortunately she obviously didn't understand her situation now.
Just when she didn't know how to answer, Ye Lan said coldly: "We don't know this lady."
After the words fell, the designer on the side suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "Fortunately!"
"Lucky for what?" Ye Lan was puzzled.
"Fortunately you two don't know Miss Jiang!
"Otherwise, I have to give Miss Jiang some face. But if I give Miss Jiang this face, I will definitely deny the face of another customer. It's a dilemma!"
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Ning's scalp felt tight.
She cast a warning look at the man next to her, but said with a gentle smile on her face: "Designer Tang is exaggerating. I only have a slight acquaintance with Master, how can I have such great honor?"
"Miss Jiang is so humble. My master has always appreciated Miss Jiang's talent."
"Excellent award, outstanding award"
The two sang and harmonized, making Ye Lan and her daughter dumbfounded.
Although Tang Qingyun didn't know the two of them, he could guess at least 60-70% when he heard Jiang Ying calling her sister.
He had known that Jiang Ning had a top-notch biological mother, and he had always wanted to see how top-notch she was. Today, it was better to see her than to see her.
Jiang Ying rolled her eyes, then pulled Ye Lan aside and whispered a few words.
Probably he wanted to take advantage of Jiang Ning to buy a dress first.
"Tomorrow is grandpa's birthday party, and mom is the hostess of the Jiang family. Of course she has to dress up in a more luxurious and grand manner, but she can't let the other ladies overshadow her."
Ye Lan has always taken matters of face seriously, and now she feels that what her daughter said makes sense.
"But you ask me to beg her? I can't do it!"
"As long as my mother agrees, I can ask my sister for help. She is very kind to me!" Jiang Ying said.
"I'm afraid I'll wrong you!"
"As long as my mother is happy, I will not feel wronged."
