Chapter 554: seeing that you’re not doing well, I’m finally relieved

Chief Xie said, “Not only am I the boss of the gold and Silver Pavilion, I’m also the boss of the Lan Ting Hotel. I have the shares of the rain forest group in my hands. Why? Do I have to report all of this to you?”
He stood there, wearing a well-tailored black suit that made him look particularly tall and slender.
He also had the aura of a person who had been in a position of power for a long time. He was cold, noble, and abstinent. His face was even more beautiful.
Chen Xiangxiang could not believe her ears for a long time.
She had always thought that the reason why Xie Changze was so protective of Yan Xi was because of her family background. It was because Yan XI was rich.
After all, who didn’t like money? With a rich lady, one could easily cross over the social strata. They had to work hard for at least 20 years.
This pair was obviously a strong woman and a weak man.
That was why Xie Changze had rejected her in the past. She had an explanation and excuse. The other party was untouchable because that person was too smart and clear-headed. He had planned his own life long ago. She had thought that they were the same type of people.
It turned out that he was so rich that he had already stood in the upper-class circle.
Then why did he choose to curry favor with Yan Xi? He was so rich and had a successful career. His personality should be stronger and he preferred to occupy a dominant position, just like Huo Zi’ang.
Why did he like Yan Xi? Yan Xi was so strong, how was she like a woman?
“Xie changze, you…”Chen Xiangxiang paused and said softly, “Why are you telling me this?”
Xie Changze did not answer. His gaze fell on Chen Xiangxiang and paused for a few seconds. “Is your intelligent system still working?”
Chen Xiangxiang’s heart skipped a beat.
Why did Xie Changze suddenly ask about this? He was obviously not Qi Lian, nor was he that terrifying brain doctor who had terrible intentions towards her.
Even when the system was robbed and added with a firewall, it was the other party who helped her crack it and successfully took back the system.
At that time, she had already guessed why Xie Changze wanted to help her.
She knew that she had lost face in front of him time and time again, and now she was in dire straits. The dresses she was wearing were all discounted items that she had bought with Li Tao at the mall in the capital last time. But perhaps, this actually made his heart ache?
Xie changze definitely wanted to destroy her if she couldn’t get it, forcing her into a corner so that she could fall into his embrace.
Just thinking about it made Chen Xiangxiang’s heart feel sweet and sour. Her face was almost red.
She shook her head and nodded again. She bit her lower lip with her pearly white teeth, and a layer of fog appeared in her eyes.
Chief Xie asked again, “You asked Deputy Director Zhang for the cancer-fighting Chinese Medicine Pill. Who Do you want to give it to?”After a pause, he added, “He is not a member of the ninth research group. He can’t come into contact with the cancer-fighting Chinese medicine pill. No matter what he promised, he was lying to you.”
He had indeed been paying attention to her!
“Thank you for your kindness.”Chen Xiangxiang’s heart was trembling. She pursed her lips and said, “I haven’t congratulated you yet. You’ve successfully developed cancer-fighting Chinese medicine pills.”
Xie changze looked at her. “So, who exactly needs cancer-fighting Chinese medicine pills? has your mother’s illness relapsed?”
Chen Xiangxiang said, “No! It’s… It’s me.”
As she said that, her eyes turned red and tears started to gather in her eyes. She said aggrievedly, “Xie changze, I don’t have much longer to live. I only have five years left to live.”
“So, did you see that? I have no way out. I can only lower my head to you and cling to you.”.
Xie changze smiled and said, “Is that so? Seeing that you’re not doing well, I’m finally relieved.”
“Alright, you can go now.”
Chen Xiangxiang was stunned for a few seconds before she could react. She hurriedly said, “Aren’t you here to help me?”
“Help You? You’re thinking too much.”Xie changze turned his head, his gaze cold. “Don’t you understand my intentions? I helped you retrieve the system because I wanted to watch you and that thing consume each other and walk towards destruction.”
Chen Xiangxiang felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave. “You… You Want Me to die?”
Xie Chang said, “Compared to what you originally planned to do to Yan Yan, I’m already very merciful. The result you have today is all your own fault.”
Chen Xiangxiang was about to go crazy!
Her mind was blank as she stood on the spot for a few seconds. When she came back to her senses, Xie Chang had already turned around and left. He was as cold and heartless as ever.
Chen Xiangxiang turned her head and was about to escape when the door was suddenly pushed open. Someone ignored the obstructions and forcefully barged in.
“Mom!”When Chen Xiangxiang saw Du Xiaoman, a faint glimmer of hope suddenly rose in her heart. No, that’s not right. She hadn’t lost everything, and there was still the Qi family..
Just as she went up to meet her, Du Xiaoman swung her palm down.
“You Jinx!”Du Xiaoman was even angrier when she saw that her opponent had dodged. She quickly grabbed her opponent’s hair, but the strength in her hand disappeared as soon as she grabbed it.
She looked at the hair in her hand and looked at Chen Xiangxiang in surprise. “Why, why did your hair fall out?”
Chen Xiangxiang touched the Bald scalp on her head and screamed in despair. She reached out and scratched du Xiaoman’s face.
“It’s all because of you! If it wasn’t for saving you, I wouldn’t have taken Yan XI’s anti-cancer shot!”
“Chen Xiangxiang, are you crazy? I’m your mother! … Ah, my nose!”

Xie changze had just stepped out of the elevator when he saw the person standing in the corridor. His muscles couldn’t help but stiffen.
“Yan Yan, you…”his mind raced. How Long had she waited? Did she know what had just happened downstairs?
“What’s wrong? Did Something Happen?”Yan Xi walked over with a concerned expression.
Xie Chang lowered his eyes and gently held her hand in his palm.
“It’s snowing outside.”
Yan Xi followed his line of sight and looked at the night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window. “Yes, it’s snowing. The New Year is coming soon.”
“Chen Xiangxiang just came. She probably wants to use her status as Qi Lian’s stepdaughter to climb up to the Qi family.”
Yan Xi was not surprised. Since du Xiaoman had appeared, how could Chen Xiangxiang let go of this opportunity?
“She wants to go abroad and take my brother with her to cut off my brother’s contact with me? She’s taking it for granted.”
Xie changze said, “She has cancer.”
Yan Xi was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Xie changze.
Under the light, this person’s features were even more prominent. She was astonishingly beautiful.
The words coming out of her mouth were cold and indifferent. “According to what she said, she only has five years left to live. I guess this is true.”
Yan Xi came back to her senses and nodded. “I understand.”
She felt a little complicated. She looked up at the heavy snow outside the window and thought of herself, who was still testing new drugs in the hospital a year ago. It felt like a lifetime ago.
Xie Chang was silent for a moment and suddenly said, “This is why I insisted on returning the system to her.”
He was still worried about Yan Xi’s dreams and did not want to put her in danger.
Fu Yuhuai had the same dream, which made him even more uneasy.
