After the breakup, I became my ex-girlfriend's white moonlight

Chapter 135 Being a Whetstone (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
It was Jiang Yi who opened the door for Jiang Huai. Jiang Yi's gaze stayed on Shen Zhuo for a long time.

"What's wrong, Xiaoyi?" Jiang Huai asked Jiang Yi puzzledly.

Jiang Yi paused and said, "Mom said that you will bring your girlfriend home for dinner tonight."

Jiang Huai: “???”

Jiang Huai had a black question mark on his face. He took out his phone and looked at the chat history. That's right! He was talking about bringing a friend home.

It seems that Bai Cuiyun over-interpreted it.

"What I told mom was to bring friends home for dinner, not my girlfriend..." Jiang Huai showed Jiang Yi the chat interface on his phone.

Jiang Yi chuckled, "Brother, I was just joking with you."

"You little brat, you deserve a beating!" Jiang Huai and Jiang Yi's relationship is much better now than before, and the gap between them has also been eliminated.

"Is the college entrance examination approaching soon?" Jiang Huai asked again.

Jiang Yi nodded, "Soon, probably in more than a week!"

"Are you sure?"

"Of course! If he performs consistently, it won't be a problem for him to get into Yanda University. It's just..."

Jiang Huai pressed on, "Just what? The tuition at Yan University shouldn't be expensive, right? If your parents can't afford it, I can still help you pay for it."

"No." Jiang Yi explained.

"My parents don't want me to go to Kyoto to study because of my grandfather..."

Jiang Huai's heart trembled, "I understand, don't worry about the other things, just focus on the college entrance examination! We'll talk about it when you fill in your application."

"Ok."

Jiang Yi was the only one at home. Jiang Zewen was working overtime, and Bai Cuiyun went out to buy groceries. Jiang Huai said hello to Bai Cuiyun and said he would be back later for dinner, and asked Bai Cuiyun not to cook the meal too early.

"Shen Zhuo, isn't it too dangerous for my mother to buy groceries alone?" Jiang Huai asked Shen Zhuo in a low voice.

Shen Zhuo gave Jiang Huai a reassuring look, "I have always provided bodyguards for your family, and the Liu family and the police from the Kowloon Gang are monitoring them."

"The Kowloon Gang injured the young master before. This matter is not so easy to resolve. We must take revenge."

"Well, thank you!"

Jiang Yi returned to his room to continue studying, while Jiang Huai and Shen Zhuo sat on the sofa watching TV.

After waiting for a while, Bai Cuiyun finally came back with vegetables and fruits.

Bai Cuiyun asked Jiang Huai to wash the fruits and entertain Shen Zhuo, while she was busy in the kitchen preparing dinner.

After the food was served, Jiang Huai called Jiang Yi out for dinner.

Bai Cuiyun seemed to be in a good mood, but Jiang Yi wanted to stay here to chat after dinner, but Bai Cuiyun called him back, "Go study after dinner, the college entrance examination is coming soon, you can have fun after the exam is over."

Jiang Yi nodded, "Okay!"

Jiang Huai knew that Bai Cuiyun had deliberately sent Jiang Yi away. Jiang Yi was still a minor, so it was better for him not to know some things. "Xiao Huai, I'll tell you straight about your grandfather." Bai Cuiyun didn't shy away from Shen Zhuo. She felt that these things were nothing special, just some love and hatred in youth!
"I am indeed the daughter of Bai Wenyao, the head of the Bai family in Kyoto, and he is also your grandfather."

"When we were young, your father and I loved each other, but your grandfather despised your father for being poor and felt that your father could not give me the life I wanted. But I am not a materialistic person."

"Your father's poverty is only relative to the wealthy families in Kyoto. In Jiangcheng, our family is actually no different from a well-off family. At that time, your grandfather hoped that I would find a son of a wealthy family in Kyoto."

"Marry someone who is well-matched. This way, it can also bring some help to the Bai family."

"When we are young, we are always impulsive. When your father and I had you, your grandfather was furious and drove the three of us out of the Bai family. He also threatened that if I used the name of the Bai family to do anything, he would give you..."

"Anyway, I was afraid at that time, so I returned to Jiangcheng with your father. Over the years, we have had no contact with the Bai family, and we have always visited relatives on your father's side during the New Year and other holidays."

Jiang Huai frowned, "But I heard from the Bai family that grandpa regretted it after you left and started looking for the whereabouts of our family of three."

Bai Cuiyun sighed, "I don't know, but the family affection among the rich is very weak, and I don't know what your grandfather really thinks."

"Perhaps, I have already lost trust in him. He came to see me that day and wanted me to return to the Bai family, but I refused. Then he said that he wanted you to return to the Bai family and want you to inherit part of the family business. Maybe he will come to see you again in a while..."

"As for Xiaoyi, your grandfather also hopes that he can go to Kyoto to study, but he didn't say much about the details."

"Grandpa really wants me to go back and inherit the family business?"

"I don't know. In my opinion, your grandfather is more concerned about profit. Without profit, there is no favor. I don't want you and Xiaoyi to have too much contact with the Bai family."

Jiang Huai nodded, "Don't worry, Mom. As long as the Bai family doesn't come to see me, I won't have anything to do with them."

"But some time ago, my second uncle's son came to see me. He didn't want me to go back to the Bai family."

"Yes! Even if you return to the Bai family, no one will be friends with you and you will still be disliked. So why go back?" Bai Cuiyun was a little helpless.

"Kyoto is a place where people are raised. The Bai family is very proud and arrogant. You will definitely be looked down upon if you go there. Your status is not that high."

"Okay, I understand. I won't go back to the Bai family."

"..."

..........
It was already nine o'clock in the evening when Jiang Huai left. Bai Cuiyun was more worried. She felt that there was nothing wrong with a peaceful and simple life. On the contrary, a life of wealth and glory could easily dazzle people.

"Mr. Jiang, I think you should stay away from the Bai family!" Shen Zhuo suggested to Jiang Huai while driving the car.

"What do you think?"

Shen Zhuo continued, "From what your mother said just now, I feel that your grandfather is a person who doesn't care much about family affection. As for why he has been looking for your family for so long, he probably wants to take advantage of you."

"You, a person with an outsider surname, will never be valued if you return to the Bai family. Everyone knows this, unless the Bai family changes their surname to Jiang!"

"Your grandfather's intention may be to use you as a whetstone to bring pressure to the real heir of the Bai family."

Jiang Huai was a little puzzled. "I have not been in the Bai family since I was a child, and I don't have the ability to gain a foothold in a wealthy family. What's the point of him using me as a whetstone? What kind of pressure can it bring to my younger brother in the Bai family?"

"So before the true heir of the Bai family grows up, your grandfather will always be behind you. Your biggest reliance is him, not anyone else."

"This alone is enough to put pressure on the heir of the Bai family, isn't it?"
