Chapter 410: Chapter 401: Saw More Than Ten Years Ago

Seeing the over four million followers under her account, Jiang Lingxi decided to ignore the name ’Xibao’.

Lu Zhengzheng quietly changed the topic, "Xixi, Tong said your account is about to grow weeds again, so take some photos when you have free time in Liangchuan to liven it up."

"Sure, I can do that."

This time, it was Lu Zhengzheng who was shocked by this straightforwardness.

Back then, Xixi wasn’t great at photography, but she loved taking selfies.

But ever since that time when she almost lost herself falling off a cliff, she completely changed after waking up.

Her love for selfies turned into not taking any at all.

Moreover, she became frighteningly sharp, catching everything every time someone tried sneaking a few pictures.

After being caught a few times, she didn’t have the nerve to secretly snap photos anymore.

This suggestion for photos was agreed to so readily.

She felt a bit unreal.

"Remember to send me a copy of the photos you take."

"Ah, okay."

She wanted to ask what they’d be used for, but unfortunately, didn’t dare to.

Just as the car arrived at the airport parking lot, Jiang Lingxi received a call from Xu Ling’an.

"Sister, have you arrived at the airport?"

Jiang Lingxi glanced at the plane taking off in the distance, "Yeah, just got here."

"Sister, I’m in the departure lounge with the production team and want to see you off."

Jiang Lingxi: "..."

It’s not that you want to come; you’ve already arrived!

Jiang Lingxi brought Lu Zhengzheng to the VIP lounge where the production team was. She immediately saw Xu Ling’an holding flowers, with a suitcase next to his feet.

The person sitting next to him made her raise an eyebrow.

Master Zhang also came along!

Jiang Lingxi took the meticulously arranged bouquet, "Very pretty. But this suitcase, is it for me too?"

Xu Ling’an nodded, "It’s filled with non-perishable food and homemade pickles from grandma. If you get tired of the food there, you can use these to freshen things up. Instant noodles aren’t good."

"Thank grandma for me," Jiang Lingxi said, also looking at Zhang Nachuan who stood up with his cane, "Thanks for coming, Master Zhang."

"Not at all, An’an was worried and packed food and supplies overnight, and I just helped bring them over," the old man replied.

Wei Xiao, having finished his work, joined in, looking at the flowers in Jiang Lingxi’s hands and the suitcase beside him, and clicked his tongue, "An’an is really thoughtful."

"Of course, my sister is the best in the world."

Wei Xiao: "..."

He didn’t know this girl was such a sister-con before!

Zhang Nachuan stood quietly by with a smile.

Although Miss Jiang and An’an had no blood relation, he could tell An’an was closer to Miss Jiang than him.

However, knowing the past stories, he was content that An’an still called him grandpa and kept him company.

The VIP lounge was spacious, but it became increasingly noisy as more people arrived.

Xu Ling’an, not needing to board, and her grandpa were taking up two seats.

Just as they were about to bid farewell and leave, the loud lounge suddenly quieted down.

Everyone looked towards the door.

Even though it was the second time seeing, some couldn’t help but gasp.

With that flawless face and impressive figure leading the way, even the handsome Luan Feng, who followed with luggage, was somewhat overshadowed.

A voice like a spring breeze said, "I didn’t come too late, did I?"

"No, no," responded an actor closest to the door, hurriedly stepping aside, "Mr. Chong, please come in."

Chong Yin nodded slightly, stepped forward in his short boots, and the crowd parted like Moses parting the sea, clearing a path to the center.

Jiang Lingxi withdrew her gaze and heard Master Zhang’s surprised "hmm" while glancing at Chong Yin.

"Master Zhang?"

Zhang Nachuan turned his look back, "The person who just came in is?"

"Chong Yin, a newly joined actor."

"This Mr. Chong doesn’t seem like an actor."

"Some in the production team think so too," Jiang Lingxi said as Zhang Nachuan glanced that way again, "Have you seen Mr. Chong before, Master Zhang?"

"Not at all," Zhang Nachuan hesitated then shook his head, "It was more than a decade ago perhaps. I was invited to a high-end painting auction where a young man bid on a cornerstone piece from the Yuan Zhao era, his wealth impressive. Plus, he was notably handsome, leaving a strong impression."

"Though, it shouldn’t have been this Mr. Chong I saw. After all, over a decade has passed; no matter how one maintains oneself, it’s impossible to stay so young. Perhaps that person back then was this Mr. Chong’s brother!"

"I see. That appearance is indeed unforgettable."

Just as the words fell, Jiang Lingxi noticed the gaze directed her way from the distance.

Calm, yet with hidden intricacies.

That Chong Yin seemed to overhear her conversation with Master Zhang.

Zhang Ye blocked Zhang Lingxuan from heading into the backyard with a troubled expression.

"Lingxuan, the old master really isn’t here today!"

Zhang Lingxuan looked at the arm barring her path, curling her lips into a sneer, "What, with grandpa away, can’t his granddaughter sit in the backyard?"

"That’s not it," Zhang Ye had no choice but to drop his arm, "It’s mainly because the old master isn’t here, and the backyard’s empty. Why not hang around the front yard until he returns?"

"Isn’t my poor little cousin staying here now? What, is she not here either today?"

Zhang Ye opened his mouth; should he say that An’an planned to see her sister off early in the morning, and the old master simply called for a driver and happily accompanied her?

If he did, the person in front of him might explode!

"An’an also left early; they’re all out," he said.

"Then I’ll go in and wait." Zhang Lingxuan, impatient, gave a push to Zhang Ye’s shoulder, "I just want to wait for grandpa in the backyard, don’t believe he’d forbid even this!"

Zhang Ye, seeing her aggressive demeanor, dared not stop her further.

Though valued by the old master, he couldn’t compare to the blood-related granddaughter like Zhang Lingxuan.

Watching Zhang Lingxuan’s figure retreat, he sighed, knowing he’d upset the old master, wondering why she insisted.

When it’s deserted, the museum’s rear courtyard is always very quiet.

Previously, Zhang Lingxuan would visit often under various pretexts, yet, after that recognition banquet which took days to absorb, this was her first time back.

Upon entering, she noticed changes within the courtyard.

A delicate swing was added in the garden, and the pavilion’s beauty bench had several soft, pink cushions placed on it.

But the majority of changes were in the East Wing.

Despite the door being closed, the window was open for ventilation, giving a glimpse of a meticulously decorated boudoir.

The fragrant rosewood canopy bed, sandalwood study desk, and vanity with its set—if she wasn’t mistaken, it was grandmother’s dowry, not just beautiful but an antique, which her mother had coveted for years, now blatantly displayed for Xu Ling’an’s use.

And those calligraphy paintings on the wall...

Had she initially been just upset being blocked from entry, her face now darkened almost to spilling ink.

After a long moment, she pulled out her continuously ringing phone, and without waiting for the other side to speak, said: "Hello, Chen Rui, wasn’t it that you wanted my grandfather to help put in a good word for your brother? I just thought of a good plan. Find a place, I’ll come over, and we’ll discuss it face-to-face."

She couldn’t believe she couldn’t deal with a young girl who grew up in a slum and just turned an adult!
