Afterward, Jiang Chen was practicing with the three elders, learning about the Jiang Family's industries, and figuring out how to manage the family.
But he was simply not cut out for it. After three days of studying, Jiang Chen dragged Jiang Yuqing in front of Elder Master Jiang and dropped a sentence, "Teach him, let him manage the family!"
Then, Jiang Chen jumped out of the attic window in front of the shocked expressions of both Elder Master Jiang and Jiang Yuqing, and headed straight for the woods behind.
Elder Master Jiang and Jiang Yuqing exchanged looks and both shook their heads, smiling wryly.
Elder Master Jiang was also comfortable with Jiang Yuqing managing the family and began to teach him with great care. Jiang Yuqing was aware that he was in charge not because Jiang Chen couldn't do it, but because he simply didn't like engaging in such matters. He had no other ambitions and was focused on dutifully fulfilling his role as an advisor.
Time flew by quickly, and soon, a month had passed.
During this month, people like Jiang Minghui seemed to have disappeared, leaving no trace. The Jiang Family members didn't actively seek them out. Although there were fewer people in the Jiang Family now, their unity was stronger than ever.
Yi Chen had already settled firmly into Jincheng, where the business development was thriving. Jiang Chen's strength was also steadily increasing, to the point where battling the three Jiang elders no longer offered him any improvement.
Ding-ling-ling!
That day, Jiang Chen was meditating in his room when the crisp ring of a cell phone broke the silence.
He took out the phone, glanced at it, and answered with a slight smile, "Hello, Yu Wan."
"Jiang Chen, where are you? The entry time has already passed, and you haven't arrived yet, have you? I don't care, you promised me, you have to come tonight!" Ye Yùwǎn's voice came from the receiver, sounding slightly coquettish.
Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned before remembering that a few days ago, Ye Yùwǎn had called him. She and a few singers had been invited by a very influential entertainment company to act as judges for a talent show, with selections taking place in six major cities nationwide.
Today just happened to be the selection in Jincheng, and Ye Yùwǎn had asked him to come over for dinner that evening. He had even promised to watch her program.
"Sure, I'll be there!" Jiang Chen quickly nodded as he came to his senses.
After hanging up, Jiang Chen scratched his head and opened the wardrobe, smiling wryly.
All his old clothes had been sneakily disposed of by Elder Master Jiang, and all his current outfits were specially tailored for him by the elder. But he really didn't care what clothes he wore!
Still, considering he was now the Family Head of the Jiang Family, he had to maintain the family's dignity, so he reluctantly picked out the least ostentatious suit and changed into it.
After changing, Jiang Chen walked out of the attic to find a majestic Knight XV waiting in front.
Once Jiang Chen had stabilized the situation within the Jiang Family, he had someone bring his preferred vehicle over. He still found this car most comfortable to drive!
Driving out of the main yard on a specially built driveway, Jiang Chen headed for Eagle's Nest.
Eagle's Nest is a landmark building of Jincheng, constructed for a grand international event last year, and has since become the place for major stars to hold concerts. That the entertainment company chose this venue for their selection shows its strong position.
As he drove towards Eagle's Nest, Jiang Chen was pondering over something.
Ever since he returned to the Jiang Family, he felt that something was off with his mother. She had seemed on the verge of speaking several times, but whenever he asked, she said everything was fine. He had Ye Jingyi and Gong Lin try to probe a few times, but they still couldn't get anything out of her.
This left him baffled. With the current situation looking so favorable, what could be troubling his mother?
Screech!
Parking his car in the large open-air parking lot in front of Eagle's Nest, Jiang Chen got out and walked towards Eagle's Nest.
"Ah! Ye Yuwan, I love you!"
"Sun Zhihan, I want to marry you!"
"Liang Feng, you are my male god!"
"Liao Zhiyuan, I want to have your babies!"
Just as he got out of the car, a wave of noise erupted, and Jiang Chen slightly frowned, turning his head to look.
At the entrance of Eagle's Nest, a large number of fans had gathered, all shouting loudly around huge posters, their faces crazed with infatuation.
Jiang Chen shook his head lightly, amused, "Is this the craziness of fans? They haven't even seen the person yet. If they do, how much more insane would they get?"
With a curl of his lip, Jiang Chen took steps toward the entrance of Eagle's Nest.
As he walked, Jiang Chen stopped reluctantly, the fans were too many—they had completely blocked the entrance.
Jiang Chen furrowed his brows, looked around, and then approached a nearby security guard, asking with confusion, "Hey there, brother."
"Hello, sir, what can I do for you?" the security guard asked politely.
"I was wondering, besides here, where else can I go in?" Jiang Chen glanced at the crazed group of fans, his face a picture of distress.
The security guard tensed up, eyeing Jiang Chen warily, "What are you trying to do? The time for entry has passed; are you trying to sneak into Eagle's Nest?"
"No, that's not it..." Seeing the security guard's expression, Jiang Chen understood that he had been mistaken for one of those fans trying to infiltrate Eagle's Nest.
With a helpless smile, Jiang Chen patiently explained, "I am..."
"Mr. Jiang." A call interrupted, and a stunning woman approached Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen turned to look and breathed a sigh of relief, "Chen Feng, it's you! Thank God, please explain to the guard for me."
"Sir, this man is Miss Ye Yuwan's agent. He got held up by some matters and has only just arrived!" Chen Feng explained to the security guard with a light chuckle.
"Oh, I see!" The security guard glanced at Chen Feng's badge and nodded in understanding.
The work badge on Chen Feng's chest labeled 'Ye Yuwan's Personal Assistant.' In reality, Chen Feng was more than Yuwan's personal assistant and bodyguard; she was also her agent, while Jiang Chen, although officially holding the title of an agent, was now the head of the Jiang Family and couldn't continue working as Yuwan's agent like before. Thus, the work had fallen on Chen Feng's shoulders.
"Mr. Jiang, let me take you inside. We'll go through the side door!" Chen Feng turned to address Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen nodded slightly, "Okay."
The two of them bypassed the front door, made their way to the side of Eagle's Nest, and passed through two security posts before finally reaching a side door.
"They really do have good security measures here!" Jiang Chen commented softly.
Chen Feng smiled slightly, "Of course. Last year, the place hosted an international event, and the security standards have been like this since then. Holding auditions or concerts here is absolutely safe. Of course, even though the security standards have remained the same, there were some security personnel not from the venue at that time. Now, we certainly can't compare to back then."
Jiang Chen nodded gently, with clear understanding.
"Hello, please show your identification!" As they spoke, two more security personnel were on duty at the side door. Seeing Jiang Chen and company approaching, they extended their hands to stop them.
