69: Jiang Nan was betrayed

Xiyuan Farmhouse has been completed, and the surrounding facilities are also finished.

The weather is getting increasingly cold now.

Jiang Li was thinking of going to soak in a hot spring with her family.

Fu Xiangqi had also been in the Research Institute for several months, and having just completed his recent project, he planned to join Jiang Li to relax.

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang's company matters were mostly settled, and the company was operating normally.

The office building and the docks are currently under construction.

Since it was a rare break, they definitely had to go soak in a hot spring to relax.

Jiang He hadn't taken a vacation for several months straight, so this was the perfect opportunity.

Jiang Yan also finished the work she had on hand and went straight to the hot springs.

However, because Jiang Nan was still on a business trip and wouldn't return until tomorrow, Jiang Li and the others decided to go first.

Most importantly, Jiang He and Xie Huaian were together, and Jiang Yan and Mo Jinnan were also together, so they all joined the hot spring trip.

As for Father Fu and Mother Fu, they did not go along.

Because Mother Fu needed to gather inspiration during this time.

After Mother Fu recovered, she started doing the work she loved, and she has now opened a studio.

It was different from the Hua Mei Clothing Store under Jiang Li's name.

Hua Mei focuses on designing clothing, while Mother Fu's studio specializes in designing jewelry.

Xiyuan Farmhouse—wait, no, it has now been renamed Xiyuan Hotel!

Xiyuan Hotel, outdoor hot springs.

Jiang Li and the women were on one side, and Fu Xiangqi and the men were on the other, separated only by a partition.

Xiyuan Hotel basically consists of two hot springs and a villa house.

It costs 100,000 yuan for one night here.

They stay in small villas with open-air hot springs outside, ensuring they won't run into other tourists.

It was their own little private world.

Red wine and fruit are also provided.

The fruits are grown nearby.

It was originally a farmhouse, and many fruits were grown in the back.

When the hotel in the front was being built, people were already hired to manage the orchard here.

The current fruits are all naturally grown in the back.

"Eldest Sister, when are you and eldest brother-in-law going to get engaged?"

Eldest Sister is almost 27 now.

Mother is getting a little anxious!

Fu Xiangqi is four years younger than Eldest Sister, and he is 23 now, perfectly old enough to register their marriage.

Jiang Li said, "Me? I'm not in a hurry! Once Jiang Nan finds someone he likes, then I'll feel relieved about you all!"

Mother Jiang heard this and said, "Lili, Jiang Nan has his parents, you don't need to..."

Jiang Li stopped Mother Jiang from continuing, "Mom, I know all that, but I have my own thoughts on this matter. Come on, we came out here to relax, be happy, don't think about it. Besides, Fu Xiangqi agrees too."

Mother Jiang heard this and replied, "Alright, as long as you two agree, that's fine. Soaking in the hot springs really is comfortable."

Then the group began to fully enjoy the hot springs.

On the men's side, although there was a wooden partition, if they spoke quietly and moved a bit further away, the other side wouldn't hear them.

When Jiang Nan first looked at his three brothers-in-law, he felt something was off.

After Father Jiang left, the three men immediately restrained Jiang Nan.

"Jiang Nan, do you have someone you like?" Xie Huaian asked directly.

Mo Jinnan said, "Exactly. If you don't have anyone you like, I can introduce someone to you."

Fu Xiangqi said, "That's right, Jiang Nan, just tell us honestly, do you or do you not have someone you like?"

Jiang Nan looked at the three men in front of him, completely unable to escape.

He didn't understand why they were suddenly concerned about his major life event.

"Uh, three brothers-in-law, what are you doing?" Jiang Nan asked with an awkward laugh.

Fu Xiangqi coughed, "Well, your Eldest Sister plans to wait until you have a girlfriend before registering our marriage."

Jiang Nan heard this and asked, "I see. What about the two of you?" He looked at Xie Huaian and Mo Jinnan, confused.

It couldn't be that they were just helping the eldest brother-in-law, could it?

"It's like this: He He wants to wait until Miss Jiang gets married before considering these things. Jiang Nan, you know how hard it was for me to court your Second Sister. If I want to get married, I have to clear the obstacles beforehand, right?"

Jiang Nan was speechless, "Second Brother-in-law, you don't have to go that far! My Second Sister is still very reasonable."

"He He is reasonable, but she has her own ideas. Once she makes up her mind, it's hard for me to change it."

Jiang Nan nodded upon hearing this; it seemed to be true.

He then looked at Mo Jinnan. He remembered this brother-in-law had just managed to win over his sister, right?

"Third Brother-in-law, what about you?"

Mo Jinnan replied, "Me? I'm simply helping the other two. Also, in case my company takes off one day, I'll want to propose, right? What if Xiao Yan wants to wait until both of her older sisters get married first!"

Jiang Nan said, "So, one of you wants to get married, one is planning for the future, and one is just preparing for a 'what if' scenario—and you're all cornering me here? Don't you believe I'll go tell my three sisters?"

Fu Xiangqi said, "I'll invest 100 million yuan in your company project! All you have to do is tell me if you have someone you like!"

With such a condition thrown out, it was hard for Jiang Nan not to be tempted.

Xie Huaian heard this and said, "I can help you with promotion, free of charge!"

The Xie family owns a media company, so helping with promotion was absolutely no problem.

Mo Jinnan said, "I'll help you find gaming experts."

The Mo family had previously been involved in e-sports, so they knew some top gaming experts.

Hearing the conditions offered by his three brothers-in-law, Jiang Nan was incredibly tempted! What should he do?

Finally, the little people fighting in his head finished their battle, and he said, "I'll tell you, but you can't spread it around."

The three men guaranteed in unison that it wouldn't be a problem.

Finally, Jiang Nan admitted that he did indeed have someone he liked.

That person was a college classmate whose family had originally been quite wealthy, but after her father's investment failed, she couldn't be found anymore.

This was a regret in Jiang Nan's heart.

Back then, due to focusing on his game development, when he finally went back, he received that news and didn't even have a chance to speak to her.

Fu Xiangqi thought to himself that this wasn't a problem; they could definitely find her: "Jiang Nan, what is the girl's name?"

Jiang Nan replied, "Xia Anqian."

Fu Xiangqi said, "Alright, no problem."

Father Jiang returned just in time to hear Fu Xiangqi's words, "What's no problem?"

"Uncle, nothing. I was telling Jiang Nan that I would participate in the initial test of his game, no problem."

"I see. I brought some fruit; have some. It's more comfortable to get out for a bit and then come back to soak than to stay in constantly."

"Thank you, Uncle."

"It's nothing."

That evening, the family gathered together for a barbecue.

The villa courtyard was large enough for them to barbecue themselves.

Jiang Li and Fu Xiangqi sat on one side and immediately sold out Jiang Nan.

Xie Huaian and Mo Jinnan also betrayed Jiang Nan.

Jiang Nan, who was barbecuing with Father Jiang, had no idea that his secret had just become public knowledge.

Jiang Li was shocked when she heard the news, "Really? Little Brother actually has someone he likes! It doesn't matter if her family went bankrupt, as long as Jiang Nan likes her, that's what matters."

Jiang Yan and Jiang He were also huddled together discussing it, trying to recall if they had ever met her.

However... they couldn't remember her, so they gave up.
