Chapter 2025 This Li Xiangnan must be reassessed.
"Brother Qiankun, Sister Jingran, you're here too!!!"
Jiang Huaiyuan's greeting, trembling noticeably, was like pouring a ladle of cold water into a boiling oil pan, instantly bringing the atmosphere to a climax.
Everyone's eyes involuntarily turned to the alley entrance.
There's no need for anyone to introduce it!
The people who came were from the Song family!
Because that Hongqi sedan, the only one in the country with a special license plate, has long been a popular topic of conversation in Yanjing!
Basically, everyone who has seen this car already knows the identity of the passenger!
That was a vehicle exclusively belonging to the Song family.
At the entrance of the alley, a Hongqi and a Volga were already quietly parked, lined up alongside the Yu family's convoy.
The group that got off the car were led by two elderly people with extraordinary bearing.
The man on the left, about the same age as Qin Zongheng and Jiang Huaiyuan, was wearing a dark blue Zhongshan suit. He was slightly short and had a thin face, but his eyes were sharp and shrewd. He was Song Qiankun, the head of the Song family.
The woman on the right is an elderly lady with a dignified and elegant demeanor. Her hair is white but neatly combed, and she wears a dark purple satin cheongsam with a matching thin woolen coat over it.
Although he is over sixty years old, one can still see the unparalleled beauty of his youth in his eyes and brows.
Most importantly, her face bears a striking resemblance to Yu Haoran, making her Yu Haoran's younger sister, Yu Jingran.
The Song family and the Yu family were related by marriage.
Song Qiankun's marriage to Yu Jingran was a well-known and celebrated union among the prominent families of Yanjing.
Everyone knows the status of the Song family; they are red capitalists. It was they who provided assistance when the country needed help the most, and it was because of this that they gained a status that is immeasurable to the world.
Which person from Yanjing doesn't know that the Song family patriarch and his wife never go out and about?
Have you ever attended a banquet in any public setting?
Not even once!
I've never heard of that!
But today, these two heavyweight figures have actually come together!
what does this mean?
This means that not only did the Yu and Song families, two of the top five families, come, but the heads of the families themselves came, and the couple came together!
If we also include Jiang Huaiyuan, the head of the Jiang family, who was already present...
So now there are three out of the five companies!
hiss!
Horror!
Anyone present who had even a slight understanding of the upper echelons of Yanjing knew what this meant!
Jiang Huaiyuan's breathing had become disordered!
He was Jiang Guiying's brother, so he naturally knew about the Li family's kinship ties!
Li Dequan and Mu Huanying are husband and wife!
In other words, if the Mu family is still active in Yanjing, then the Mu family will definitely mobilize all its members for the Li family's full moon celebration for Xiao Xitang!
In other words, of the five prominent families in Yanjing, apart from the Shangguan family, the other four families—Jiang, Yu, Song, and Mu—were all present!
Has anything like this happened in Beijing in recent decades?
Such a grand occasion might have happened in the past when an elder in a wealthy or prestigious family celebrated their birthday!
But in recent decades, this is absolutely unprecedented!
The hearts of everyone in the know trembled!
Therefore, Jiang Huaiyuan no longer cared about manners and composure at this moment. He quickly stepped forward, his voice filled with disbelief and shock, "Brother Qiankun, Sister Jingran, you... you actually came too!"
Song Qiankun laughed heartily, his voice still booming, and said humorously, "Huaiyuan, what are you saying? The Li family is a long-time friend of the Song family. If you can come, why can't we? Xiangnan's daughter is having her full moon celebration, how could we not come?"
These words, spoken so matter-of-factly, still startled Jiang Huaiyuan. "Family friends? Brother Qiankun, what are you saying..."
Yu Jingran had already walked up to Li Xiangnan, her eyes filled with affection and gratitude. "Xiangnan! Is Xitang inside?"
"Yes! Grandma, she's receiving guests in the main room! I don't know who's holding her right now!" Li Xiangnan's hand was already being held by her, and his tone softened as he spoke.
Yu Jingran's eyes immediately lit up with anticipation, "That's great, I want to give him a big hug later!"
After politely greeting Li Xiangnan, she immediately turned to Jiang Huaiyuan: "Huaiyuan may not be aware of the relationship between the Song and Li families..."
"Jingran, what do you mean?" Jiang Huaiyuan was genuinely curious, and the Jiang family members behind him craned their necks to look at her expectantly.
Yu Jingran paused, his gaze sweeping across the room, and said firmly, "During the War of Resistance against Japan, Old Master Li Dequan of the Li family went in and out of the gunfire seven times to save my old Song! Even if it cost him his life, my old Song would have to repay him seven times! Those times he narrowly escaped death, even now, when I hear about them, I still feel lingering fear! Brother Zhongmo's leg injury is also a pain that will forever remain in my old Song's heart..."
Upon hearing this, Yu Jingran's voice choked with emotion.
Only then did everyone realize that it was because of the fact that Old Master Li Dequan's legs were not very nimble, a result of his previous rescue of Song Qiankun.
"Hey girl, hey girl, on such a joyous day, why bring up such sad things? Stop, stop! I still have my pride!"
Song Qiankun, who was listening from the side, was somewhat moved. His vision blurred for a moment, as if he had returned to the battlefield of yesteryear. However, he quickly recovered and used a joke to cover it up, so as not to let his wife take the mood away.
Yu Jingran glanced at Song Qiankun. The elderly couple naturally had a high degree of tacit understanding. After silently wiping the corner of their eyes, they held Li Xiangnan's hand tightly and said, "In short, I am very grateful to Brother Zhongmo, and even more grateful to the Li family. Now Xiangnan has inherited Zhongmo's mantle and has also taken good care of the Song family. On such a joyous day, we must come!"
The entire venue fell into a deathly silence once again.
If Yu Haoran's experience was already shocking enough, then Yu Jingran's account took that shock to a new level.
Moreover, everyone noticed that Yu Jingran had just said that after Li Xiangnan inherited Li Dequan's mantle, he had taken good care of the Song family!
This is the opposite; she didn't say that the Song family took good care of the Li family, but rather that Li Xiangnan treated their family well.
As you can see, there are many intricacies involved!
Jiang Huaiyuan was shocked.
Meanwhile, the neighbors around were horrified.
They looked at Li Xiangnan, who was standing among several elderly people, with extremely complicated expressions.
There is a sense of disbelief and a feeling of being in another world in the worship.
Is this still the same Dr. Li they know?
Is he still the same gentle and humble Li Xiangnan who always has a smile on his face?
The younger generation who came with Jiang Huaiyuan were now being shocked one after another, and felt cold sweat seeping down their backs.
They exchanged glances, their eyes conveying the same message.
This Li Xiangnan must be reassessed, absolutely!
It took Jiang Huaiyuan a long time to calm down and recover from his initial shock, but the turmoil in his heart was still not subsided.
He looked at Li Xiangnan, who was surrounded by the heads of the Yu and Song families, and at Qin Zongheng, who was smiling at his grandson-in-law. He suddenly remembered what Yu Jingran had said earlier.
"People he saved before would come from all over the country!"
These words, at this moment, seem to possess a linguistic magic.
Sure enough, while everyone was still reeling from the shock, several more cars arrived at the alley entrance, along with people walking and cycling...
Ordinary jeeps, old sedans, and vans that had traveled through the night, covered in dust.
A large crowd came from the alley entrance and headed towards Li Xiangnan as if by unspoken agreement.
Everyone in the hospital was stunned...
