The servants knew that Lin Xuan was Grandpa Jiang's grandson, and they also knew that the whole Jiang family valued him highly.
They knew this so clearly because the Jiang family often gathered together to discuss what they should do to bring Lin Xuan back into the family.
Also, every time Lin Xuan came to treat Grandpa Jiang, Old Master Su would follow Lin Xuan over. This angered Grandpa Jiang so much that he would often curse loudly after they left.
If it weren't for the fact that Lin Xuan was also there and Grandpa Jiang wanted to leave a good impression on him, he probably would have pointed at Old Master Su's nose and cursed at him right then and there.
The servant didn't dare to delay and immediately said, "Alright, Miss, please wait a moment. I will go and inform the Second Miss right away."
The servant hurried into the living room.
Jiang Yutong was sitting on the sofa, comfortably scrolling through her phone.
"Second Miss," the servant said respectfully, "someone is here to see you."
Jiang Yutong felt a burst of excitement. "It's Little Xuan looking for me, right?"
"It's not Young Master Lin," the servant shook her head.
"So it's not Little Xuan."
Jiang Yutong's voice carried a hint of disappointment. "Then who is it?"
The servant replied, "She said her name is Jiang Qing, and she's looking for you, Second Miss, regarding Young Master Lin."
"Then let her in quickly," Jiang Yutong said.
Her brows were tightly furrowed.
Looking for her about Little Xuan's matters... Could it be that she's bringing back the gifts she had sent to Little Xuan again?
However... that might not necessarily be the case.
Jiang Yutong still held a sliver of hope in her heart.
"Miss, please," the servant extended a hand. "Our Second Miss is waiting for you in the living room."
"Mhm."
Jiang Qing followed behind the servant and entered.
Upon seeing the items held by the two people behind Jiang Qing, the hope Jiang Yutong had been clinging to finally shattered.
As expected, they were returning the gifts to her. Right now, Little Xuan still didn't want to acknowledge her as his sister, so she shouldn't have harbored any expectations.
"Put the things down, and you can leave," Jiang Yutong leaned against the sofa and said listlessly.
"Second Miss Jiang," Jiang Qing spoke up. "Let me introduce myself first. I am Jiang Qing, the secretary of Young Master Lin's girlfriend. We have met once before."
"Secretary?"
Jiang Qing's brows furrowed tightly.
Why did she come looking for her?
Jiang Qing continued respectfully, "Second Miss Jiang, Boss Su asked me to pass a message to you."
"What message?" Jiang Yutong asked curiously.
Jiang Qing replied, "Whatever Young Master Lin needs, Boss Su will buy for him. There is no need for you to trouble yourself, Second Miss Jiang."
With their Boss Su's domineering personality, she wouldn't want Young Master Lin to use things from other women, not even if they were given by his own biological cousin.
Not to mention, Second Miss Jiang was still considered a romantic rival in Boss Su's eyes.
"That is all Boss Su asked me to convey. Second Miss Jiang, I still have matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now. Goodbye."
After leaving the Jiang family, Jiang Qing hurried off to find a man to marry.
Leaving Jiang Yutong alone with her brows tightly knit.
Why did she feel that these words from Little Xuan's girlfriend were a bit weird, like something said to a romantic rival...
She must be overthinking it. Little Xuan's girlfriend knew that she was Little Xuan's cousin, so how could she possibly treat her as a romantic rival?
Jiang Manting, who was coming down from upstairs, looked at Jiang Qing's retreating back with confusion.
Why did she find her a bit familiar? It was as if she had seen her somewhere before, but she couldn't recall exactly who it was at the moment.
"Tongtong, who was that just now..." Jiang Manting asked in confusion.
"Her?" Jiang Yutong replied, "She's the secretary of Little Xuan's girlfriend."
"Secretary?"
Jiang Manting rubbed the space between her eyebrows.
Just now, she suddenly remembered that the woman looked a bit like Jiang Qing. If she was Jiang Qing, that would mean Little Xuan's girlfriend was Su Hua from the Su Group.
But that was impossible.
Su Hua kept her distance from men. Moreover, she was three or four years older than Little Xuan, so it was impossible for the two of them to be together.
Jiang Manting also sat down on the sofa. "Tongtong, what did she come to see you for?"
"Nothing much, just bringing back the gifts I gave to Little Xuan," Jiang Yutong said, shaking her head.
Sigh.
Little Xuan hadn't accepted a single one of the things she sent. It was obvious that Little Xuan wanted to draw a clear line between them.
However, it was impossible for her to give up. She wouldn't stop until Little Xuan was willing to acknowledge her as his sister.
Thinking of something, Jiang Manting asked again, "Is Little Xuan on good terms with his girlfriend?"
Jiang Yutong nodded. "They're doing great. I can tell that Little Xuan loves her very much, and she loves Little Xuan very much too."
The main reason she had thought about getting a boyfriend was because she was provoked by the two of them.
Every time she bumped into them together, she was ruthlessly forced to watch their public displays of affection.
In order to stop suffering through their public displays of affection, she had no choice but to get a boyfriend.
In the end, she discovered that even after getting a boyfriend, she still had to endure their public displays of affection anyway.
Jiang Manting spoke up, "Tongtong, I suddenly thought of a method that could help bring Little Xuan back to the family."
"What method?" Jiang Yutong asked hastily.
Her sister had always been very opinionated and decisive; any method she could come up with definitely wouldn't be bad. Maybe it really could help them quickly bring Little Xuan back.
A bright light appeared in Jiang Yutong's eyes.
Jiang Manting replied, "That is, we start with Little Xuan's girlfriend and have her help mediate between us."
The bright light in Jiang Yutong's eyes extinguished.
She became listless again. "Sis, you'd better forget about that. I tried using this method before, but she seems to be very hostile towards me, and I feel like she's very hard to approach."
She was too aloof and had a particularly commanding presence.
It was only when she was by Little Xuan's side that she looked a bit easier to get along with.
"Sis, you know she definitely stands on Little Xuan's side. She is fully aware of everything Little Xuan has been through. She's probably worried that we would treat Little Xuan the same way the Lin family did, which is why she harbors such great hostility towards us," Jiang Yutong analyzed.
"Is that so?" Jiang Manting furrowed her brows tightly.
It seemed they could only think of another method.
Jiang Manting sighed. "Tongtong, bringing Little Xuan back still requires you to make the arrangements."
The only thing she could do was provide Tongtong with some money.
Jiang Yutong patted her chest and guaranteed, "Sis, just rest assured. Leave this matter to me."
Jiang Yutong glanced at the time and said, "Sis, tomorrow is Yilong's birthday. I'm going to go buy a gift for him first."
Before going to buy a gift for Little Xuan, she had thought about buying the gift for Yilong at the same time. However, when she got to the mall, she completely forgot about it.
"Okay," Jiang Manting nodded.
