"You also know Yan Xi CP?"

The old man was surprised and asked him in confusion, "Since you know that Ximei is your partner, why do you treat her like this?"

Yan Jie didn't expect that the biggest CP fan would be his own grandfather. This is really outrageous.

He stood up from the sofa coldly, not wanting to say another word to the old man about this matter.

The old man's expression suddenly changed, and he called out to him:

"My old friend is sick. Come with me to Zhou's house tomorrow."

Yan Jie: "Which Zhou family?"

None of the noble families the old man interacted with had the last name Zhou, so he knew he couldn't fool them, so he simply laid it out:

"Professor Zhou from the History Department of Yida University is a collector of ancient calligraphy and paintings. I have consulted him before on some questions about Song Dynasty silk paintings."

"Aren't you an amateur enthusiast of Ming history? When did you start studying Song history?"

The old man said angrily: "What right do you have to control my whim?"

Yan Jie directly rejected him, "Grandpa, I don't know any Professor Zhou."

Seeing that he was hopeless, the old man made it clear: "His granddaughter's surname is Jiang, you should know her."

Yan Jie turned around and looked at the old man with a daunting look in his eyes. He said coldly:

"Don't go."

The old man watched him go upstairs and cursed him in his heart: You are so stubborn and stupid, you deserve not to be able to find a girlfriend.

Maybe others couldn't see it, but the old man could tell at a glance that his grandson was interested in Ximei. Unfortunately, he was too confused by the situation to see through it.

Yan Jie underestimated Ximei's popularity among the elders.

By the time he figured out these thoughts, the opportunity was already cold, so how could he take action?

The old man was so angry that even three herpes grew at the corners of his mouth, but he couldn't calm down. As a last resort, he decided to visit the Zhou family.

Jiang Hexi slept until he woke up naturally.

The first thing she did when she sat up was to refresh the webpage to check the latest comments.

“Nan Xi, get out of the entertainment industry” ranked in the top 20 of the hot search list.

The whole internet owes Yu Xiangwan an apology, which has become the most discussed hot topic on the red list.

Many netizens who had been led astray by Nan Xi's interview turned against her after the third episode was broadcast. They swarmed into Nan Xi's Weibo and scolded her so much that she closed the comment section overnight.

As for those big Vs and private accounts that had cyberbullied Yu Xiangwan, none of them escaped any harm because they were collectively hung up online by Xie Wanyi and the five chaebol members. They were all hit back by the storm of public opinion and were scolded back ten times more.

Nan Xi was in total darkness, with no chance of recovery.

Unable to bear the harassment, the cyberbullies posted apology statements to Yu Xiangwan online.

Yu Xiangwan responded to this incident by posting on Weibo: I will never forgive you, and @ all the cyberbullies one by one.

When Jiang Hexi saw this declaration of victory, it was as if her Ren and Du meridians were opened up. The blood in her body began to boil and she felt so happy.

Ms. Zhou knocked on the door and came in, and saw her lying on the bed, not knowing what she was excited about, so she urged her:

"Get up, there will be a lot of people coming to visit your grandpa today, and the old man specifically asked you to go over and keep him company."

"Mom, I'll go and keep you company, but what about my cousin?"

Jiang Hexi raised his head and looked up at her.

Ms. Zhou paused with her hand holding the curtain, then suddenly pulled open the curtain. The sunlight poured into the room obliquely, and fragmented golden light filled the ground.

"Listen to grandpa, he asked you to go over..."

"Mom, except for Zhou Songyi, all the Zhou family members gathered in the living room yesterday to watch the farming variety show.

Jiang Hexi stretched her feet out to dry in the sun, curled up her toes and said:

"My cousin has said more than once that I stole Grandpa's favor. If I go over to keep her company again this time, who knows what kind of fuss she'll make."

Ms. Zhou suddenly felt a headache. She almost couldn't keep the secret of what she was going to do from her. She exposed everything in an instant:

"Did you guess something?"

"Grandpa's otitis media didn't occur earlier or later, but just when I came back from the show. The timing was too deliberate."

Jiang Hexi said leisurely, swinging her feet. "Grandpa saw that I couldn't make it in the Hong Kong circle, so he took advantage of my current popularity and set up this plan specifically to let me get to know the powerful people in the Beijing circle so that in the future--"

She chuckled and deliberately omitted the rest of the words.

She had predicted eight or nine out of ten of Ms. Zhou's secrets. She was immediately furious and annoyed. She slapped her on the buttocks and said fiercely:

"I'm talking to you about something serious. Why are you laughing so hard? Go wash up and brush your teeth before you talk to me."

"It's just washing up, why are you so fierce about it?"

Jiang Hexi complained, but he slipped into the bathroom very nimbly.

There is a reason for Ms. Zhou's irritability.

Jiang Hexi’s previous investment failure made her a laughing stock in the Hong Kong circle, and she was no longer favored by the wealthy families in Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

Who would have thought that things would change like this? The unexpected popularity of a farming variety show made Jiang Hexi explode into an international sensation, and he won the love of countless TV viewers, especially middle-aged and elderly fans, with his overwhelming popularity.

The old man said that flowers blooming inside the wall are more fragrant outside the wall. The wealthy families in Shenzhen and Hong Kong don't like her precious granddaughter, but she is rare in the Beijing circle. There are many people who come to inquire about her, so it would be better to organize a meeting and get to know more people.

Ms. Zhou thought that Jiang Hexi would definitely marry into a well-matched family in the future, so she did not object to this matter. However, she dismantled the stage before the party even started.

"Come out when you're done washing up. I have something to ask you."

Jiang Hexi leaned against the door panel and brushed his teeth with foam in his mouth, indicating that she could ask.

Ms. Zhou resisted the urge to slap her and said bluntly:

"Grandpa asked you to accompany him to meet guests, will you go or not?"

Jiang Hexi nodded in agreement, then took a sip of water, raised his head and gargled, then spit out the foam:

"But not now."

"When was that?"

"Let Zhou Songyi accompany Grandpa to meet the guests during the day, and I won't steal her limelight. At night, during dinner, I will come out to meet the guests. At least on the surface, this is a plan for Zhou Songyi."

Jiang Hexi said thoughtfully: "Mom, after all, I am a person of a different surname. I can't bypass my cousin and ask grandpa to organize such a dinner party for me. This will be good for everyone."

How could Ms. Zhou not understand her little thoughts? She was finding ways to avoid having a boyfriend.

But she is young now, so there is no rush for this kind of thing.

"Your grandfather and I don't have any other intentions. We just see that your social circle is too narrow, so we want you to get out and about more often. It's always good to get to know more people."

"Mom, I know." Jiang Hexi nodded obediently.

Ms. Zhou then agreed to her request and said, "Behave better tonight and don't embarrass your grandfather."

Jiang Hexi nodded in agreement one by one. After seeing Ms. Zhou off, she closed the door, threw herself on the big bed, lay down in a spread-eagle position, then rolled up her bedding and took a nap.
