Chapter 755: 298 Shocking Zhixia, What Has She Done in Xiangcheng? (First Update)_3
As soon as Wen Zhixia heard Xu Nanjing, she knew where she was.
Xu Third Young Master, Xu Second Miss.
These two were names Wen Zhixia often heard within the Wen Family, and she was as familiar with them as if they had been thundering in her ears.
Upon reflection, the only estate that could have such an expansive land in this area, after counting them on her fingers, was the Xu Family that the old lady often spoke of.
The illustrious and prestigious family in Jiangjing which the Wen Family and the Yue Family both wanted to establish ties with.
Wen Zhiwei was attending a gathering today that included the Xu Second Miss.
This was also one of the reasons why the old Madame Wen wanted Wen Zhiwei to bring Wen Zhixia along.
But…
How was Bai Lian connected to the Xu Family? From the looks of it, she and Xu Nanjing seemed to be quite familiar with each other.
What had her friend been doing over the past year?
“Xu Third Young Master, I am Wen Zhixia.” Despite the shock in her heart, Wen Zhixia formally introduced herself.
Tang Ming and Pu Xiaohan were casual to a fault, often addressing Xu Nanjing as a brother, while Yang Lin was always one to interact solely with Bai Lian and not bother with anyone else, even when facing Jiang Fulai.
This was the first of Bai Lian’s friends to address him in such a manner.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nanjing knew right away that Wen Zhixia was likely someone from the same circles. He chuckled, “Miss Wen can just call me Xu Third, I am older than you, so you may also call me Third Brother.”
If Bai Lian brought her to the Xu Family and even personally accompanied her to admire the plum blossoms for an entire morning, Xu Nanjing figured, not even Jiang Fulai would receive such treatment from Bai Lian.
He led the way in front and, listening to Bai Lian speaks to Wen Zhixia in an unhurried tone, thought his mother might be able to achieve her goal through indirect means.
Bai Lian was unwilling to become her goddaughter, but perhaps someone else could take that place.

The dining venue was in a side hall of Qufeng Court.
Jiang Fulai was casually chatting with Xu Jueling. He knew Bai Lian wanted to talk to her friend and hadn’t disturbed her all morning. Now, when he saw her coming in with Xu Nanjing, he reached out to pull back a chair beside him.
Bai Lian approached the chair and introduced her, “Wen Zhixia, the one I’ve mentioned to you.”
She rarely introduced anyone formally. When Director Jian went to Xiangcheng, Bai Lian merely gave a casual introduction.
Jiang Fulai took a second look at Wen Zhixia and stood up.
His cold and distinguished nobility was apparent as he greeted Wen Zhixia with composure, “Hello.”
His voice was cool and somewhat aloof.
Xu Jueling and Gao Shu, who were sitting nearby with teacups, quickly stood up upon seeing Jiang Fulai rise.
They greeted Wen Zhixia in a friendly manner.
Wen Zhixia, who had never seen such a scene before, was shocked again, feeling as though her status was incredibly high at the moment.
Any of the people present had the ability to set the atmosphere, but in other settings, they were ones to be catered to by others. Today, they all presented their most amiable faces.
After admiring the plum blossoms,
several people’s WeChat contacts were added to Wen Zhixia’s phone, including Gao Yan, Gao Shu, and Xu Nanjing.
In the afternoon, Wen Zhixia politely said goodbye.
Bai Lian had brought gifts when she came, and when leaving, Gao Yan stuffed a bunch of things into their hands to take back with them.
The Wen Family’s driver was taken to the ear room by housekeeper Lan to be entertained separately.
Only once Wen Zhixia came out did he return to the car.
He too was in a daze, missing several green lights along the way. Due to the Bentley emblem of the Wen Family, the drivers behind simply honked politely to remind him.
In the rear seat,
Wen Zhixia finally came to her senses, daunted by the oppressive aura of Jiang Fulai during the meal. She hadn’t dared to ask Bai Lian about the man who was clearly more than just friends with Bai Lian.
Now in the car, she leaned back and took out her phone to inquire with Bai Lian—
[Who is that bastard sitting next to you just now?]
Idiot Dog: [He’s still sitting next to me right now.]
Wen Zhixia retracted a message—
[Who was sitting next to you just now?]
Twenty minutes later, Wen Zhixia received another friend request. This time the friend request was succinctly put in three characters—
[Jiang Fulai]
For a moment, she didn’t dare to confirm.
After returning to the Wen Family, Wen Zhiwei had yet to return; as usual, she would come back after dinner.
“So early?” The old Madame Wen had just woken up from her nap and was surprised to see Wen Zhixia back already.
Wen Zhixia placed the food box she brought back on the table with a complicated expression, yet seemingly in a good mood, “I came back after finishing the meal; this is the pastry I brought back for you.”
After speaking, she went back to her upstairs room, planning to video call Bai Lian for an explanation.
The old Madame Wen wasn’t too concerned about the pastries, but she looked worriedly towards the upstairs.

Beside her, the butler chuckled and opened the food box, “Madam, take a look at what the young miss brought back…” He paused, somewhat surprised, “Madam, is this not the Plum Blossom Cake from Kangyu Tower?”
