The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress

Chapter 345: 133 went fishing with Xiaojiang, bringing things down a notch (second update)_1
Invitations?

Xu En was taken aback, unsure why Bai Lian needed more invitations when he had sent out those for the Ji family members, “Of course, I’ll bring them to you right now.”

“No need, just give them to my grandfather when you have time.”

“Alright,” Xu En felt a bit regretful, “I’ll bring them to your grandfather tonight.”

The two finished talking and hung up the phone.

On the other side of the phone, at the entrance to the Boyuan Base.

Jiang Fulai was wearing a cashmere coat, leaning slightly against a roadside withered tree, his figure tall and slim, his pale face showing faint expression.

He exuded a strong presence, with even his tousled hair catching the cold frost of the wind.

But those light eyes were staring at Bai Lian with a brooding look.

Bai Lian: “…I said two.”

“But you mentioned only one before,” Jiang Fulai calmly pointed out her error.

Wasn’t it because only Director Chen had spoken to her about it?

Jiang Fulai saw what she wanted to say, “Oh, I knew it…”

“Rustle—”

The black business car stopped beside them, the rear door automatically opened, revealing Shen Qing’s face, who was excited, “Alian, Xiaojiang.”

Jiang Fulai turned aloof in a second.

He stood tall, wrapped in the chilly breeze, greeting the people inside the car politely, his eyes and brows revealing a sense of pride.

Bai Lian: “…”

6.

Only after Jiang Fulai got into the passenger seat did Shen Qing turn to Bai Lian, “Alian, aren’t you coming ice fishing with us?”

Bai Lian lazily waved her hand, “Next time, you guys go ahead, I haven’t finished my report yet.”

The passenger seat’s Jiang Fulai opened the car door, shaking his phone at Bai Lian, meaning—

He recorded it.

Bai Lian reached to close the car door, Jiang Fulai didn’t have her strength and was forced to settle down.

Only then did Bai Lian smile at the driver, “Have a safe trip.”

Without looking at Jiang Fulai.

The driver was startled by her action, too frightened to say much, only daring to steal glances at Bai Lian with his peripheral vision, and caught sight of Jiang Fulai’s cold face, shivering again.

Scary, so scary.

The black car drove onto the main road, Shen Qing noticed the roads growing wider, the cars fewer, the buildings taller, and realized they were not heading to the outskirts.

The center of Jiangjing City had restrictions, so there were far fewer private cars than other areas.

“Where are we going?” Shen Qing asked with some confusion.

She whispered her question to Ji Shaojun.

Ji Shaojun didn’t know either.

Only Ji Heng sitting by the window knew, as he observed the route and, after seeing a particular building, he couldn’t help but look up and study Jiang Fulai, who was in the passenger seat.

Twenty minutes later, the car gradually entered a cobblestone road section and finally stopped at an arched stone gate.

It was obviously a back entrance, Shen Qing looked up and saw three bold and vigorous characters next to it—

Jiayu Lake.

Walking through the archway, a black-clad manager came to show them the way, leading them along the spacious concrete road flanked by pine trees and plum blossoms, with a faint scent trailing.

Occasionally, sparrows flew by, and a few passersby strolled along the road.

Soon, they caught sight of the frozen lake, a spectacular scene Shen Qing had never witnessed before. Jiang Fulai let the manager take her around, while he went fishing with the other two.

Ji Heng and the others fished all day.

They didn’t return until after dinner, Jiang Fulai dropped them off at the Yunxiao Hotel entrance, “This is a card for Jiayu Lake, if you want to go ice fishing later on, just head straight there.”

Jiang Fulai courteously handed a black card to Ji Heng.

Ji Heng, holding his pipe, glanced at Jiang Fulai.

“Dad, why don’t you take it.” Shen Qing took it for Ji Heng and then handed it to him, “Today’s fishing spot was great.”

Ji Heng: “…”

Ice fishing had been a rare experience, even Shen Qing, who disliked fishing, had patiently stayed the entire day.

She carried a black bag; the fish inside were still jumping.

She smiled broadly as she said goodbye to Jiang Fulai.

They were staying on the 56th floor.

While waiting for the elevator, they happened to meet Xu En and others coming out from it.

Xu En had been upstairs checking the wedding venue setup and tasting the menu; Ji Mulan’s face beamed with a smile.

Beside her, members of the Xu clan were speaking with Xu En, “I’ve arranged that spot for you to look at with Xu’s assistant, remember to give me a list when the time comes.”

He had gone up with Xu En to see the table arrangements; with so many people, the seating would need to be carefully planned.

Xu En nodded his head.

Looking up and seeing Ji Heng, his eyes lit up, “Uncle Ji, how was today’s catch?”

Ji Heng showed him the bag.

Next to him, Ji Mulan was surprised, “You actually caught fish?”

“Yes, do you want to take a few home?” Ji Heng was not one for many words.
