Chapter 2722 - 724: Central Plains Grand Gathering
"Hey, you know, your godmother’s family is a Martial Family.
Back when it wasn’t the Martial Artist Age.
She saved you and me.
Otherwise, we would have gone with your father.
Now, they’re coming out into the world.
They need someone to help out.
Naturally, they’ve set their sights on you.
After all, you’re doing quite well now.
Remember, no matter how excessive their demands, don’t confront them head-on.
After all, they saved the two of us.
If you really encounter something you can’t solve.
Find Xiao Chen.
That kid has plenty of tricks up his sleeve.
He’ll definitely be able to help you."
Liu Xin sighed, "You know, your godmother is just a bit sharp-tongued, but she doesn’t have a bad heart.
You just need to be understanding, got it?"
"Alright, I get it."
Jiang Meng sighed.
The reason her face turned pale was because she knew the nature of her godmother’s family.
Though they weren’t exactly villains.
They were especially sharp-tongued.
Difficult to deal with.
She hurriedly told Xiao Chen about this matter.
Hoping Xiao Chen would be prepared.
"It’s not a big deal.
Speaking of sharp-tongued people.
I’ve seen plenty of them.
Aren’t Jiang Yurong and Guo Ling just like that?
Another godmother doesn’t matter."
Xiao Chen laughed, "At worst, I’ll just endure it."
"Thank you."
Jiang Meng sighed, "The godmother’s family saved my life and my mother’s, they’re our living benefactors, I can’t be too harsh on them.
Unlike Guo Ling and Jiang Yurong.
I can still argue with them.
Some things, I just have to handle flexibly."
The two returned to the Qinghuang Sect.
Bai Zhi and her group had already arrived.
A group of about a hundred people.
Basically the entire Bai Family.
Bai Zhi, the Bai Family’s old lady, about the same age as Liu Xin.
Zhao Qiansun, the Bai Family’s son-in-law, basically just an echo for Bai Zhi.
Bai Yue, Bai Zhi’s daughter.
She looked quite nice.
But nowhere near as good as Jiang Meng.
Then there was Bai Yue’s husband, Wang Hou.
Wang Hou was from the Tang Sect, basically a disciple of a Great Sect.
So his status was quite good.
The main figures were these few.
The others weren’t that important.
At this moment, Bai Zhi was scolding Huang Qiu’er, "A Sect Leader of a mere mid-grade sect dares to be so insolent in front of me.
If it weren’t for my goddaughter living here.
Do you think I’d bother coming here?"
Huang Qiu’er looked discontent.
This person came to Qinghuang Sect claiming to be Jiang Meng’s godmother, ordering people around as if she owned the place, it was infuriating.
But due to Jiang Meng’s face, Huang Qiu’er couldn’t lose her temper.
She could only endure.
Seeing Xiao Chen and Jiang Meng coming over.
It was like seeing reinforcements.
"Godmother!"
Jiang Meng hurried forward and said.
"Don’t call me godmother, your mother already called, didn’t she? And still didn’t come to the airport to pick me up?
Are you going to let me rely on others?
Hurry up and make these people move out."
Bai Zhi said.
Jiang Meng’s face changed.
As expected, here she comes, here she comes.
So soon.
Jiang Meng glanced at Xiao Chen, afraid that he would get angry.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen smiled and walked over, "You must be godmother, your accommodation has been long arranged.
It’s at the most famous Kangshan Mansion in Central Plains City.
It’s a standalone villa.
Plenty of room, enough for a hundred or so people."
"You’re the son-in-law, aren’t you?"
Bai Zhi coldly glanced at Xiao Chen.
Her icy demeanor unchanged by Xiao Chen’s attentiveness.
Even a bit disdainful.
"Godmother, I remarried Xiao Chen, he’s not a son-in-law anymore."
Jiang Meng said.
"Still the same, a freeloader on other’s income."
Bai Zhi said disdainfully.
She didn’t know Xiao Chen’s identity, not even that Xiao Chen was the boss of Chenhe Group.
In fact, not many people knew about this.
Moreover, Bai Zhi lived in the mountains, so it was impossible for her to know.
Jiang Meng felt more awkward.
She was really afraid that Xiao Chen might suddenly slap Bai Zhi, causing an unmanageable situation.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen wasn’t angry.
He smiled and said, "Godmother’s teaching is right, I’ll definitely make something of myself."
"Alright, enough of this.
Isn’t there a villa?
Lead us there."
Bai Zhi said coldly.
She was treating herself like the host.
Treating Xiao Chen like a servant.
But for Jiang Meng, Xiao Chen endured this slight.
He had endured greater grievances before.
Soon, everyone arrived at the villa.
Bai Zhi was quite satisfied with this large villa.
"Not bad, but for a King-Grade Aristocratic Family like ours, this place is still a bit small.
In the future, our business should expand more.
Qinghuang Sect’s estate is more like it."
Bai Zhi said.
Jiang Meng chuckled bitterly, not saying a word.
The more she spoke now, the more energetic the old lady would become.
Subsequently, Bai Zhi criticized Xiao Chen for nearly half an hour.
Xiao Chen had heard these words plenty of times before.
He just pretended to be a fool.
In one ear, out the other.
"If you don’t improve, you shouldn’t stay in the same room with Jiang Meng.
From today on, I’m in charge of this.
Liu Xin is too soft-hearted and kind to let Jiang Meng marry someone as useless as you."
Bai Zhi finally said.
Jiang Meng was about to say something when Xiao Chen’s phone rang.
"I’m giving a speech here, and you don’t even know to turn off your phone’s ringtone?
Purposely defying me, aren’t you?"
Bai Zhi coldly said.
"Exactly, you’re not showing respect to the elderly."
Bai Yue also laughed coldly.
This girl took after her mother.
Also quite the sharp tongue.
"Whose call is it? Is it some random woman?"
Bai Zhi asked.
Xiao Chen looked at his phone and said, "Liu Yan."
"Liu Yan! That boss of the Liu Group?"
Bai Zhi was stunned.
Zhao Qiansun was stunned.
Bai Yue was stunned too.
Before they came to Central Plains City, they did some research.
They knew the situation in Central Plains City.
So they were so shocked.
"Why would such a big boss call you?"
Bai Zhi coldly asked.
"I happened to save his daughter."
Xiao Chen said.
"Answer it, put it on speakerphone."
Bai Zhi said.
"Godmother, isn’t that a bit much? This is Xiao Chen’s private call."
Jiang Meng frowned.
"No worries, I’m not doing anything guilty, I’m not afraid of ghosts knocking."
Xiao Chen directly pressed the speakerphone.
On the other end of the line, Liu Yan laughed, "Mr. Xiao, in ten days.
I hope you can grace us with your presence at Central Plains Tower.
You and President Jiang both.
Once you’re there, just mention my name at the door, or give me a call."
"What are we going there for?"
Xiao Chen frowned, "I don’t have that much time."
"How could you talk to President Liu like that, be more polite."
Bai Zhi was furious.
Understanding Liu Yan, she became so agitated.
Offending Liu Yan wouldn’t be good.
"Is someone beside you?"
On the other end of the line, Liu Yan said.
"It’s nothing, just my family."
Xiao Chen laughed.
"Oh, it’s like this, in ten days, Central Plains Tower will host a Provincial City gathering, called the ’Central Plains Grand Event’. This event is held once a year.
I really hope you two can come."
Liu Yan said.
