The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Jiang Han was stunned for a moment, and then turned his head sharply.

"Cough cough..."

I saw Jiang Zhan standing there in the corridor not far behind him. His face was gloomy and calm. When he saw him, he couldn't help coughing twice.

Jiang Han couldn't help but stare at first, and then his ears began to feel hot for no reason.

What followed was a burst of indescribable shame.

At this time, if he didn't know that Jiang Xuxu did it on purpose, he would be the fool that Jiang Cheng was.

Turning his head, he glared at Jiang Xuxu fiercely, then simply raised his legs and walked away quickly.

Jiang Zhan watched him walk away quickly, a dark light flashed across his eyes, but there was still no big emotional change on his face. He just lowered his head and typed,

[Why did you deliberately say those words to lie to him? 】

"It just feels like he cares about you." Jiang Xuxu paused, "You don't seem to know."

Although Jiang Xuxu had never seen the two brothers speak to each other since returning from Jiang Zhan, judging from Jiang Han's reaction to Jiang Zhan's incident, his attitude towards Jiang Zhan was at least different from that of Jiang Yumin, his biological father.

Jiang Zhan listened to Jiang Xuxu's words, but his face remained calm.

【He hates me. 】

He has a withdrawn temperament and is mute. It would be embarrassing to talk about such a brother.

Furthermore, Jiang Han was very dissatisfied with him when he was a child because of his attitude towards his parents.

Jiang Han himself said that he hated him.

Jiang Xuxu listened to Jiang Zhan's words but didn't take it seriously.

"How a person treats you should not just be based on what he says, but rather what he does."

Jiang Xuxu gradually understood this truth after returning to the Jiang family.

For example, her father has never been good at expressing his love.

Another example is Jiang Zhan in front of him.

Although he showed different kindness to her from the beginning, which was different from Jiang Su and the other brothers.

Even in order to help her, he did not hesitate to reveal his spiritual power, but Jiang Xuxu occasionally felt that he didn't like her that much.

The feeling wasn't annoying, but...a bit competitive.

Jiang Xuxu was sure that she had never interacted with Jiang Zhan, so the only thing that could connect him with herself was——

her mother.

"Is it because of my mother that you helped me today?"

She couldn't think of anywhere else.

Jiang Zhan was a little surprised by her keenness, but he had no intention of continuing to hide it from her.

She tried her best to save her child's life, and Jiang Zhan was not the kind of person who didn't know what was good or bad.

[I helped you because of my eldest aunt. 】

Because she was her daughter, that's why he chose to take action at that time.

He knew that if his eldest aunt was still here, she would definitely want him to do this.

It doesn't really matter to him whether his life span will be shortened or not.

Because his eldest aunt once told him that the special ability given to him by God must have a meaning for its existence.

[You asked me before who taught me how to be a substitute boy, and I can tell you now. 】

When Jiang Xuxu heard that he suddenly mentioned this, her mind moved, and she thought of a possibility almost reflexively.

"Is it...my mother?"

Jiang Xuxu had a rare look of confusion on his face.

She should have guessed that Jiang Zhan was so young at that time, and because he was weak since childhood, it was impossible for ordinary people to get close to him and teach him many things.

If that person was his mother who had been taking care of him, everything would make sense.

However, her mother actually also knows Xuanmen magic...

No one in the family had ever told her about this matter.

Even judging from the Jiang family's initial attitude towards her knowledge of mystical arts, no one in the Jiang family knew about it.

【Yes. 】

Jiang Zhan typed and said, [No one in the Jiang family knows about this, not even the eldest uncle. 】

"Why are you telling me this all of a sudden?"

Jiang Xuxu had fantasized about the mother who everyone said was dead and whom he had never met, but he had no obsession.

The master had calculated it for her a long time ago. The master said that her biological mother died in infancy, and Jiang Xuxu never doubted it.

But when Jiang Zhan talked about his mother, Jiang Xuxu had a strange thought in his heart.

If his mother had been able to see the difference in Jiang Zhan at a glance, she would not only have used a substitute boy to save the boy's life, but even taught him to keep silent to preserve his lifespan.

Then she will never be as simple as just having some knowledge of mystical arts.

Why would such a mother die for no reason in the face of several people who stole her?

How could she be sent to the Guan family as a tool to fend off evil?

Jiang Xuxu previously thought that Ge Zhou was the mastermind behind everything. Because of his Xuanmen methods, it was normal for ordinary people to be deceived.

But if her mother is also a Taoist, then what happened back then may not be as simple as what her father told him before.

Jiang Xuxu was lost in thought. Jiang Zhan looked at her, hesitated for half a second, and finally told the real reason why he came to find her.

[Because in addition to this, I also know another thing about the eldest aunt that the Jiang family does not know. 】

He says,

[You should have heard from your uncle that your mother’s name is Wen Ruo, but I think that may not be her real name.

I once heard her secretly reciting your family's surname to you when you were just born... Her surname was Wen. 】

Jiang Xuxu was startled when he heard this, and almost subconsciously thought of someone.

When Bai Yanqing gave her a gift today, he said that the person who asked her to give the gift was named Wen.

Smell again.

She originally thought that the person who heard about the master was somehow related.

But it turns out that Mr. Wen is from her mother's side?

Or maybe there is a connection between the master and her mother that she doesn't know about?

Jiang Xuxu felt her thoughts racing for a moment, and various possibilities quickly flashed through her mind, but she quickly denied them.

Makes no sense.

But if she wants to know the key, maybe she can try to find Mr. Wen.

……

No one knows the conversation between Jiang Xuxu and Jiang Zhan that night.

Also because the information Jiang Zhan brought her was too sudden, Jiang Xuxu didn't suddenly remember until the next day that she almost forgot someone——

Zhou Yaya.

Zhou Yaya was sent to the Security Bureau for detention by Jiang Huai last night.

She was involved in using mystical magic to harm people, which in itself required the intervention of the Security Bureau.

Jiang Xuxu wanted to know the news about Shen Tuwu, and heard that Zhou Yaya wanted to see her, so he planned to go there the next day.

As soon as she reached the door, Jiang Cheng suddenly appeared again, looked at her, hesitated again and again, and couldn't help but speak,

"Are you planning to see Zhou Yaya? Can you take me with you?"

The way Jiang Xuxu looked at Jiang Cheng suddenly became more subtle.

After a long while, she asked tentatively,

"The lingering feelings are still there?"

Jiang Xuxu thought that if this was the answer, she would really admire Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then when he realized it, his expression suddenly changed, and he became unabashedly crazy!

"What kind of lingering love?! I'm crazy. I still have lingering love with her!! No, I have no love with her at all!!"

Come on, bah bah bah!
