Chapter 485: Why Don’t You Major in Law?

At the Jiang villa.

Jiang Qi walked down the stairs wearing pajamas and a shawl over her shoulders. She saw that the living room was bustling.

Her mom was advising the kitchen staff on making lunch. “Remember to make everything slightly sweeter. We should also add sweet potato, ribs stew, and coconut curry chicken.”

The chef answered, “Okay.”

Her dad asked, “Has the dessert been prepared?”

The chef answered politely, “Yes, it has been prepared.”

Jiang Qi had been busy with a domestic violence divorce case these past few days. She had only returned home last night past midnight.

Observing the living room situation, she asked curiously, “Dad, Mom, are we having guests today?”

Mrs. Jiang watched her youngest daughter approach them and said with a smile, “Gu Mang is coming over today.”

Surprised, Jiang Qi’s eyes widened. “She’s in the capital?”

The last time she had seen Gu Mang was July last year.

Old Master Jiang nodded and smiled, revealing the wrinkles on his face. “Mm, your eldest brother said she arrived three days ago.”

“I see,” Jiang Qi said. “Where is she staying? Why don’t we ask her to stay with us for a few days?”

Old Master Jiang thought of what Jiang Shenyuan said for a moment before telling Jiang Qi, “Gu Mang is staying at Lu Chengzhou’s Lu manor. Your eldest brother said that they are seeing each other.”

“What?!” Jiang Qi looked at her dad in shock. “Gu Mang? And Lu Chengzhou?”

Besides the age gap, she was more interested in how the two of them got to know each other. They seemed to be very incompatible.

Old Master Jiang also did not know what exactly was going on. However, their relations.h.i.+p was not important right now.

He said, “Let’s not waste time on this matter. Go upstairs and wake your eldest brother and second older brother up. Gu Mang just called. She said she will arrive in about an hour’s time.”

“Okay. I will go change.” Jiang Qi turned around and ran upstairs quickly. She suddenly thought of something. She leaned against the railing and shouted towards the kitchen, “Mom, I want to eat braised mushroom. Ask the chef to add that dish.”

“Okay.”

Hearing the response, Jiang Qi ran upstairs delightfully to wake Jiang Shenyuan and Jiang Shenze up before returning to her room to change out of her pajamas.

At around 10 A.M., a black Hong Qi sedan with a “Jing 0000” carplate stopped in front of the Jiang villa. The three siblings were waiting by the villa entrance. Upon seeing the license plate number, Jiang Shenyuan’s eyes narrowed.

There was no one in the entire capital who didn’t know this car belonged to Lu Chengzhou. Was he that anxious to announce to everyone that Gu Mang belonged to him? The three siblings walked towards Gu Mang.

Jiang Shenyuan looked at Gu Mang. “You’re here.”

Gu Mang nodded and greeted Jiang Shenze and Jiang Qi. Jiang Shenze was rather aloof and he was a man of few words. Only Jiang Qi spoke to Gu Mang excitedly.

The Lu family chauffeur retrieved the gifts from the trunk of the car and pa.s.sed them to Gu Mang.

“Let me hold them for you.” Jiang Shenyuan took the initiative to carry the gifts and turned towards Gu Mang. “Let’s talk inside.”

Gu Mang acknowledged with a hum. The three of them walked towards the villa. The moment they entered, Old Master Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, who were sitting on the sofa, stood up and welcomed her.

Gu Mang said politely, “Uncle Jiang, Aunt Xu.”

Mrs. Jiang held her hand and led her to the sofa with a benevolent smile. “It’s been so long since I’ve seen you. Why haven’t you gained any weight?”

Gu Mang smiled and remained silent.

They chatted comfortably and the topic of Gu Mang enrolling in Capital University’s medical school was brought up.

Old Master Jiang looked very regretful. “I thought you would choose to major in law. I didn’t expect you to study medicine.”

Holding the cup of fruit tea that the Jiangs had specially prepared for her, Gu Mang took a sip and said honestly and calmly, “I didn’t choose law because I was afraid I would start a fight with someone the moment I started arguing my case. Last time I argued with someone in court, I ended up hitting someone.”

Old Master Jiang’s temples twitched as he looked at the expressionless Gu Mang.
