Although the courtyard doesn’t seem very big, there’s a large garden outside for walking, and the small courtyard is just for their private space, which is elegant and comfortable enough.

Chiang Xiao thought about how, in later generations, ordinary people have to struggle to save money just to buy a house of one or two hundred square meters, and also need to take out a loan from the bank. She felt that the disparity between rich and poor in this world is not just a mere word.

She also has her own little courtyard in the Jiang Family.

Jiang Shiheng laughed.

"Your courtyard over there, your... aunt is helping you decorate it, but tonight you probably can’t stay there yet. Dad has three rooms here, a bedroom, study, and a small guest room. You’ll stay in the small guest room tonight."

"Aunt?"

Chiang Xiao was quite curious about this aunt.

However, thinking of so many people in the Jiang Family, she realized that later on, just recognizing people would make her dizzy, and she felt a bit overwhelmed.

"Yes, Jiang Qiuyan, she is the eldest daughter of my second granduncle, and also your great-grandfather’s eldest niece. I call her Aunt, so you should call her Aunt too, right?"

Seeing her frown, Jiang Shiheng knew what she was thinking. "No rush, you’ll slowly recognize everyone when you truly return later. But did you really come by yourself? Why didn’t you bring a bodyguard?"

This girl is really too bold.

Clearly, she was told that D State is very unsafe right now, yet she actually dared to come over.

"Bringing people here would be too conspicuous." Chiang Xiao said: "Look at someone like Sun Han, with their physique, they really stand out in a crowd."

If Sun Han, Ding Haijing, and the others walked together, they all were tall, sturdy, upright, and handsome. If a girl like her brought such people along and stepped into D State’s territory, it would surely attract attention, right?

This reasoning made sense too.

Jiang Shiheng didn’t doubt but scolded her again.

"Your great-grandfather even called to say there are no rooms for you to stay now."

"Pfft." Chiang Xiao couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Don’t joke, with such a large garden in the Jiang Family, how could there be no room?

How much do they not want her to come over?

"By the way, is your great-grandfather on your side now?"

"Why do you ask?"

"If not, I’ll just avoid meeting him, lest he lets slip that I’ve come to D State."

Jiang Shiheng was amused.

She was even worried that Old Master Jiang would spill the beans?

"Your great-grandfather now almost entrusts everything to me secretly. Yue Yang, who you just mentioned, has been with your great-grandfather for eighteen years, helping him with covert matters all along. His team also manages a group, and your great-grandfather has entrusted them all to me."

"Trustworthy?"

"Trustworthy, Little, you really should have some trust in your dad’s judgment."

"Trust, trust, trust. Like that Lu Shuangshuang, dad saw through her and arranged for her to end the engagement early, right?" Chiang Xiao was puzzled by one thing: "But dad, why did you agree to go to that island with her?"

Because he always felt there was something important he hadn’t remembered.

Moreover, it should be related to Lu Shuangshuang.

He asked Old Master Jiang and Jiang Qiuyan if he had ever gone to that island with Lu Shuangshuang before, and they confirmed it.

Jiang Qiuyan also told him one thing.

She said that after he first returned from the island with Lu Shuangshuang, he was in a good mood for a long time, sometimes even laughing to himself. So, everyone thought something had happened on the island to deepen their relationship.
