Chapter 4 - The Jiang Family

After one month , the thick gauge around her head was removed and the wound had already healed. Thankfully no scar was left.

In the last one month , time flew swiftly. Now Snow was whole heartedly Tang Xiulan and excepted her new identity. Everyday Grandpa Tang accompanied her after coming back from the University. Tang Xiulan admired the old Grandpa Tang for being such a knowledgeable person. He was the Dean of China's famous University—The Imperial University.

Her Scumbag father had taken the white lotus pair to Paris in a holiday and haven't returned yet. Tang Xiulan really wished they couldn't return. Although it was like pinching a persimmon for her to take down them but she was trapped in the web of relations. She knew that his grandfather didn't care about the white lotus pair but it was still a harm to reputation if she torture them. She had to carefully plan their downfall and it was not the right time to take them down. She had yet to set her foot in this foreign land. When the right time comes she will surely revenge the death of the previous Xiulan.

During this time she informed herself about Imperial and China. Imperial was the Capital city of China and the homeland of major business , military and entertainment houses. Being a foreigner she also had to learn the culture of China. Fortunately she was a polyglot thus she had no problem in the literature area.

She had been living her days of leisure and secretly treating her health. Because the previous Xiulan was a quite person nobody disturbed her too and most of her time was spent in the library which was also the favourite place of the Previous Xiulan.

From the previous owner memory she was in the final years in high school and after few months she was having her joint Entrance Examination for Universities.

Sitting on the bed , Tang Xiulan was chewing a gum as she enjoyed the book titled ; The War Strategies. Suddenly someone knocked on her bedroom door. Tang Xiulan frowned a little before flipping another page. Without raising her head she instructed the person to come in.

A maid came in carrying a glass of pineapple juice. Seeing the Her Eldest Miss was busy , she quietly kept the glass on the table and stood aside quietly. Her Eldest miss who never like fruits other than apple had been eating grapes and craving for pineapples from the moment she woke up from the coma.

" Eldest Miss , The Jiang Family chauffer is waiting in the living room" The maid informed politely.

" En"

Seeing Tang Xiulan still busy , the maid didn't mind because they were already accustomed to her quite nature.

" Eldest Miss , Young miss , madam and Sir will be returning today. Will you return by the dinner time too. "

Hearing that, Tang Xiulan finally raised her head and thinking for a bit shook her head. " Don't make my dinner . I will stay in the jiang mansion . "

The maid was first shocked then nodded before walking out of the room as soon as Tang Xiulan finished drinking the juice .

Tang Xiulan closed the book before walking towards her closet. Seeing the rows of white and pink dresses made her dizzy. She was not a fan of those angel dresses but she had no option. Changing into a knee-length white dress , she tied her hair in a pony and clipped her bangs sideway exposing her face making her look more mature. Taking her daily necessity bag she walked down the stairs.

" Young miss, Let me hold this. " The driver smiled politely as he took her bag and walked towards the car outside. Tang Xiulan nodded before following him.

" Young miss! " The driver opened the back door for her before turning around to the driver seat.

Soon the car started moving. Tang Xiulan sat silently on the back seat. After staying in the Mansion almost made her suffocated. Finally after feeling the fresh air ruffling her hair made her feel alive. She wanted to move her head outside but it was no longer the Dark Island but Imperial.

After a drive of one hour the car stopped near a compound. Soon the security guard opened the gate and the car started again before finally stopping infront a big mansion. Tang Xiulan opened the door and looked at the European styled Mansion.

....

" You all , Did you decorated the old room according to Xiulan's taste. "

" Xiulan like Pork ribs best. Go prepare it for her ..."

" Yes master! " the maids nodded and flee away.

In the Living room of Jiang Mansion , a sophisticated and strict-looking old man was going banana on the maids and servants. He was running around , ordering everyone.

" Grandpa! , Don't sweat so much. Sit and rest or your new suit will be drenched with sweat. "

A lively and clear voice spoke from outside. Grandpa Jiang turned to look at the voice owner and glared at the person.

Approaching him , he twisted his ears.

" You brat! , now your are coming. Your Cousin will be visiting today and you instead of helping me , you ran out to play! "

"Ah...Ouchh! , Grandpa have mercy. See I went to buy the Velvet cake from Marves Shop— Cousin favourite one. "

Jiang Chen sighed in relief as Grandpa Jiang stopped twisting his ears. He massaged his ears before pouting like a little puppy who had just suffered injustice.

Grandpa Jiang nodded and took a seat on the couch as he turned to look at Jiang Chen.

" Chen'er... Will your Cousin like all this. Previously she never visited us after her mother's death."

Grandpa Jiang spoke as he looked at the ceiling in daze.

Jiang Chen put his hand on Grandpa Jiang hand as he tried to console him. He knew that his Aunt death and Tang Xiulan were Grandpa Jiang's Weak point.

" Ofcourse...Cousin will like this. And this time we will try our best so that she will feel closer to us. "

" Grandpa! , smile a little or else Cousin will run away seeing your stoic face" Jiang Chen teased.

" You Brat!..." Grandpa Jiang glared as he yelled.

" where are your parents? " Grandpa Jiang asked after giving a good beating to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen panted heavily and pouted as he looked at his strong Grandfather. He really felt the beating that now his muscles ached. After all Grandpa Jiang was a military man during his youth.

" There, they are!." Jiang Chen turned towards the entrance and saw two figure walking inside. Recognising the familiar silhouette as his parents , he answered.

" Dad! Relax . " The middle-aged men spoke as he helplessly sighed . He was Jiang Fenghui , the head of Jiang Family and Tang Xiulan Eldest Uncle. Walking with him was his wife and the Xu family heiress — Xu Zili.

" I 'm relaxed. Go and call the Old Man Tang and ask when my granddaughter will come. " Grandpa Jiang ordered before taking a seat on the couch.

Xu Zili and Jiang Fenghui sat opposite him with an helpless expression while Jiang Chen sat on the arm of a one seat couch and ate an apple looking at the scene with amusement.

Suddenly a maid rushed inside. After taking big intake of air and supporting herself with hands on her knees.

" Master- Master...Young Miss is here. "

As soon as her words were heard the originally silent room again turned frenzied as Grandpa Jiang rushed to the entrance before finally stopping then returning back to wait.

After waiting some minutes , a silhouette dressed in white walked inside followed by the driver .

Grandpa Jiang eyes filled with tears as he looked at the young miss which was almost identical to his youngest daughter.

" Muye'er " The name softly escape from Grandpa Jiang mouth.

Jiang Fenghui supported his father as his eyes too mystified with tears seeing his niece as he corrected his father. " Dad , She is our Xiulan not youngest sister. "

Grandpa Jiang nodded. He had seen this granddaughters of his when only once after her mother died. That time she was just a five year old child now she had grown into a beautiful girl. Although he had news about her and also seen photos of her growing year but seeing her in real life made him emotional. He really wronged his daughter. He didn't took care of Muye'er daughter properly.

Grandpa Jiang Wished to hug the girl but was afraid of scaring her. Displaying a smile which he thought to be a amiable smile he solemnly waited with the others.

Jiang Chen who was waiting with them almost ran away after seeing Grandpa Jiang Scary smile. Jiang Fengwei was a military officer in his younger days and took part in war thus he always had a strong aura which unconsciously pressurized the person near him. Now with the Strong aura and stiff smile made him look fierce.
