Chapter 109 Chain Reaction
Yu Jiang didn’t study the art of incense in depth, nor did he like it very much, he just did it to adapt to the role.
He just lit a random incense burner. The incense powder was also prepared by Xue Qingyu, with a faint scent of plum blossoms.
Xue Qingyu didn't understand these things either. They were all prepared by his mother. She was very proficient in both tea ceremony and incense ceremony.
Yu Jiang recalled what he had just said and continued to ask, "Why did you come back? To work or to visit relatives?"
"It's just a visit to my family. My mother misses me." Xue Qingyu didn't dare to continue talking about wanting to date her or anything like that, for fear that he would really make her anxious and ask her to change the guest.
When the incense in the incense burner was almost burned, Xue Qingyu took Yu Jiang upstairs to take a look at Xue's mother's collection.
They are all high-quality items, and the knowledgeable audience in the live broadcast room also guessed Xue Qingyu's identity based on the exhibits.
[Friends, this guy's surname is Xue, his mother has a hobby of collecting, and judging from his accent, he is a local of Beijing. Can anyone guess his identity? ]
[Looking at the level of the collection, some of the pieces are good enough to be placed in a museum. I guess only the Xue family in Beijing has such a level, right? ]
[Sisters, I heard from my family that the second daughter of the Xue family was married to the youngest son of the Norman family of the British Union? ]
[Didn't Miss Xue get divorced ten years ago? But it seems that she is the only one in the Xue family who has married a foreigner.]
[I am an old-fashioned person. What the hell are the Xue family and the Norman family doing? ]
[The Xue family started out as a bristle business in the late Qing Dynasty. During the war, they were red capitalists and made contributions to the protection of cultural relics.]
[The Norman family is a noble family of the British Union, a shipbuilder, very rich {drooling}]
[Wow, there are so many hidden talents in the live broadcast room! My friends who watch the live broadcast with me really know everything~]
When everyone was discussing Xue Qingyu's identity heatedly, a blind student discovered the highlight.
[Wait, let's say, if this guy's family is very rich, then is Yu Jiang also a young lady venturing into the entertainment industry? ]
[Well, maybe! After all, children from rich families always play together. From what I hear, they are childhood friends.]
[My all-powerful friends in the live broadcast room! Whose family is surnamed Yu? ]
After discussing for a long time, it was still unknown whether such a person existed or not. The few people who knew the inside story kept silent about Yu Jiang's affairs.
After all, Yu Jiang's incident was considered shocking negative news in the upper class circle, and even caused a small-scale chain reaction.
Ever since Yu Jiang severed ties with her family for her "dream", several young ladies who used to look up to her as an example are now following suit.
For example, the daughter of the Qin family ran away from home to make clothes, the second daughter of the Lu family wanted to go abroad to be a trainee, and the star-chasing behavior of the only daughter of the Liu family was also made public.
The rest of the younger generations are not much better. In the past, their families used them as positive examples, and now they use the positive examples mentioned by their elders as excuses to rebel.
It can be said that the emergence of Yu Jiang in the Jiang family caused turmoil in other families.
They all didn't think highly of Yu Jiang, but she was the most competitive. She said she had cut off all ties with him and she hadn't returned home for more than ten years, let alone used the family's resources.
Now the younger generations have even more to say, and the elders can only suppress them by saying, "Do you have what they do?"
The following conversation between Yu Jiang and Xue Qingyu seemed to indirectly confirm the speculation that her identity was not simple.
"That year, after I finished my father's family affairs, I returned to China to look for you, but Grandma Lou kept silent when she mentioned you. When I asked my mother, she wouldn't tell me either. What happened?"
Yu Jiang glanced at the camera and said, "I'll tell you about it later during the live broadcast. It's really chaotic."
After watching this in the live broadcast, no one felt like they were watching a dating variety show. There didn’t seem to be any spark of romance between the two.
The male guest looks okay, and logically he also has the bonus of being a childhood sweetheart, but it is obvious that Yu Jiang has no interest in him.
It doesn't look like a dating variety show, but more like a slow variety show for old friends to get together, and the male guest looks like Yu Jiang's younger brother.
At lunch time, Xue Qingyu's assistant brought people food boxes, which contained various side dishes and snacks, filling most of the table.
The dishes all looked great in presentation, and even the small pot of fruit wine was a beautiful amber color.
Yu Jiang took a bite and frowned slightly. Before she could say anything, Xue Qingyu spoke first.
"My mom knows I'm here to have dinner with you, so she specially made something you like. Is that okay?"
Yu Jiang quickly changed his tone, "It's delicious and looks romantic. Thank you Aunt Xue."
The two of them smiled at each other, saying nothing. They didn't even finish their meal half full.
After lunch, Yu Jiang ate his snacks and looked toward the yard. "The camellia flowers in your yard are really blooming. They bloomed so early?"
"I don't know, maybe it's heated up or something?" Xue Qingyu didn't even look at the flowers, he was just staring at Yu Jiang eating.
Yu Jiang has always eaten well, even when he was eating in the army cafeteria, he was always fast and elegant. Now he eats snacks leisurely, which is even more entertaining.
After filling his stomach a little, Yu Jiang began to think about the highlights of the show.
As someone who has recorded variety shows before, she knows a little bit about the show routines. She could ignore it before when there were many people on the show, but now she is the only artist, so she has to do something serious.
"It's a date after all, what's the follow-up?"
Xue Qingyu continued to sit in his seat, holding his face and looking at Yu Jiang, "No plans, I can do anything with you."
Yu Jiang was speechless, "You can do anything, but the audience can't just watch us drink tea here all day, right?"
Xue Qingyu raised his chin towards the window, "Didn't you say that the flower was beautiful? I'll draw one for you."
Yu Jiang glanced at him from head to toe. "You? Your painting has no collection value. What would I do with it?"
"Now you don't care about the live broadcast again? What's your face? You are so mercenary! Even if the painting I gave you has no collection value, isn't it a friendship?!"
Seeing Xue Qingyu's furious look, Yu Jiang stood up, walked behind him, and patted his shoulder heavily.
"Okay Davis, you've grown up now, huh? You dare to show your teeth to me? And even yell at me? Don't you follow me around every day..."
Xue Qingyu was startled, and fearing that Yu Jiang would expose some dirt on him, he quickly stood up and gave her his seat.
"Oh, Ayu, I admit that I spoke a little loudly, but that was because I was anxious that my clumsy work would not be acceptable to you~"
Yu Jiang sneered twice and said nothing. He could only continue to flatter.
"My paintings have no collection value at all, which is equivalent to a waste of paper! But if I am lucky enough to get your inscription, I, Xue, will treasure it for life."
Yu Jiang, who was quite happy to be coaxed, nodded modestly, "If you like, then go ahead and draw it."
"Okay!" Xue Qingyu, who had avoided being exposed, quickly agreed with a cheerful tone.
The two went to the desk in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, which seemed to be designed for painting the camellia tree, and was located right opposite the flowers.
