Chapter 414 - 414:I Don’t Care Who You Are, Don’t Even Think Of Any Ideas About Her (1)
Li Yu looked at Yuan Xudong meaningfully and said, “Miss, you should go back and rest. I’ll take care of Sir here.”
Ye Xiaoxi didn’t get much rest last night and was genuinely tired now. “Alright, keep an eye on Uncle. Let him finish his nourishing soup.”
“Okay.”
Li Yu nodded.
Ye Xiaoxi reminded Yuan Xudong worriedly, “Uncle, don’t work in secret.
Remember to drink your soup well.”
“Why are you so long-winded at such a young age?”
“Hehe, I’m just concerned about you.” Ye Xiaoxi waved her hand with a smile and turned to leave.
Only Li Yu and Yuan Xudong were left in the ward.
The atmosphere was exceptionally silent.
After a long time…
Yuan Xudong finished his bowl and put it down. He then said to Li Yu, “I don’t care who you are. Don’t even think of any ideas about Xiaoxi. She’s not someone you can covet.”
He could tell that Li Yu was looking at Xiaoxi with a special gaze.
Naturally, he knew what he was thinking.
Xiaoxi was the apple of the Yuan family’s eye, and they wouldn’t let Li Yu, who had an unknown background, near her.
Li Yu responded calmly, “1 only have respect and protection toward Miss. I’ve never overstepped my boundaries.”
He lowered his voice slightly and said with a fiery tone, “Sir, you’re being too nosy. I’m Miss’s subordinate, not yours. You should take care of yourself.”
Yuan Xudong’s expression remained unchanged, but his demeanor turned much colder. “Xiaoxi is my niece. I have the right to manage the people around her.”
“Oh, is that so? Ask yourself, do you really treat her as your niece?” Li Yu’s words were vague, but they hit Yuan Xudong’s heart.
He stared fixedly at Li Yu and remained silent.
However, his entire body emitted a dangerous aura.
Li Yu looked at him without any fear.
It was a stalemate.
Yuan Xudong’s phone vibrated, breaking the silence in the room.
He lowered his head and answered the call.
Li Yu put away the empty bowl.
On the other side.
At the Lu family villa.
Lu Zhi hadn’t returned home for the entire night, and the housekeeper started to worry again. She was afraid that Jiang Yining would fall out of favor and ruin the current good situation. She kept persuading Jiang Yining to quickly think of ways to reconcile with Lu Zhi.
“Young Mistress, I’m just thinking for your sake. It wasn’t easy for you to get to where you are today. Why did you make a mistake and touch Sir’s bottom line?”
Jiang Yining was annoyed by her nagging and said, “I know what you’re worried about. You’re afraid that I’ll be chased out and you’ll have no one to rely on.”
“No…”
The housekeeper wanted to deny it.
Jiang Yining didn’t give her a chance to speak. “Even if 1 divorce Ah Zhi, I still have over 50 billion dollars under my name. I can settle you down well and ensure you a worry-free life. So, please shut up and stop bothering me.”
The housekeeper’s mouth was gagged and she said, “Alright, I’ll go make food for Young Mistress.”
“Okay, go quickly.”
Jiang Yining urged.
Right after the housekeeper left, Yan Han called.
In the end, he is still concerned about Yan Ruo. After scolding her, he brought her to ask for forgiveness.
Jiang Yining didn’t want to have anything to do with Yan Ruo. She rejected him politely. “You don’t have to apologize to me. She schemed against me. I’ll return the favor. We’ll be even. As for the other grudges, I will settle them with Yuan Luochen.”
The real mastermind behind the scenes was Yuan Luochen, and Yan Ruo was just a tool.
And it was the kind that would be thrown away after being used.
Why lower yourself to her level?
Jiang Yining understood.
Yan Han didn’t insist. “If you don’t want Ah Ruo to see you, then I won’t. But 1 have another request.”
“What is it?” Jiang Yining asked.
“All Ruo has a contract with the Yuan family. If she breaks the contract, she has to pay 12 billion. 1 don’t have that much money on hand now, so I’d like to borrow some from you. Don’t worry, I won’t take it for free. As collateral, I’ll give you artwork of equivalent value.” Even a proud person like Yan Han had to lower his stance for his daughter.
Jiang Yining thought for a few seconds and said, “Alright. I can lend you the money, but I’ve changed my mind now. Ask Yan Ruo to come along.”
Yan Han didn’t know why she suddenly changed her mind.
But he still agreed.
After all, All Ruo did owe Yining an apology.
After hanging up the phone, not long after.
Yan Han brought Yan Ruo into the Lu family villa.
The moment she saw Jiang Yining, Yan Ruo’s eyes turned red. She glared at her angrily, wishing she could tear her apart.
This vengeful appearance didn’t resemble an apology at all.
Jiang Yining didn’t care at all. She looked calmly at the haggard Yan Ruo and said, “Long time no see..”
