Yan Rusheng said, âThe Jiang Corporation.â
His shrewd-looking eyes surveyed Xuxuâs face closely and intently at her every expression.
âThe Jiangs?â Xuxu frowned. Baffled, she asked, âJiang Zhuohengâs company?â
Yan Rusheng sneered and lifted an eyebrow. âIf not which other Jiang corporation could have the ability to do that?â
Deep down, he heaved a silent sigh. Seemed like she was kept in the dark about this matter.
âI really had no idea,â Xuxu gloomily replied with her eyebrows furrowed. She pulled her chair and sat down.
She picked up the cutlery and was about to start eating when a thought suddenly hit her. âAre you suspecting that Iâve given up on the bidding because I was aware of this matter?â
This fellow was really petty, he might really have assumed that she was aware.
Without any trace of emotion on his face, Yan Rusheng threw her a question, âIsnât it?â
As expected...
Xuxu rolled her eyes. âYan Rusheng, can you stop being so petty? Doesnât this sound ridiculous?â
She lowered her head and began to eat.
âDonât fret, the orphanage might not have to be relocated.â
Xuxu suddenly recalled what Jiang Zhuoheng spoke to her over the phone the other day.
She had no idea that the Jiang Corporation was bidding for that piece of land, so naturally, she didnât take his words to heart.
Her heart sank instantly. âDid Ah Heng really bid for the piece of land because of Tiny Stars Orphanage?â
Almost immediately she squashed the idea. No, he wouldnât. That piece of land was worth billions of yuan. The Jiang Corporation must have seen the investment potential in that piece of land as well.
After reassuring herself, Xuxu finally started on her breakfast.
Yan Rusheng was gazing at her and the expression in his eyes turned soft. The corners of his mouth subconsciously curled into a smile.
After breakfast, both of them went separately to work in their own cars.
Xuxu reached the office first but Yan Rusheng was nowhere in sight. When it was almost 11 a.m., there was still no sight of him anywhere in the building.
...
âIâm looking for your lady boss Wen Xuxu. Iâm her friend.â
âPlease hold on and I will inform her.â
Yan Rusheng had just entered through the entrance and saw a middle-aged man standing in front of the front desk. He was holding bags of unknown stuff, and he heard him saying he was looking for Wen Xuxu.
He frowned and hastened his footsteps towards him. He stole a glance at the stranger and proceeded to question the receptionist, âWhatâs going on?â
The receptionist replied promptly, âPresident Yan, this gentleman said that he is Madamâs friend and he needs to meet her.â
âWen Xuxuâs friend?â Yan Rusheng turned his head slowly to the middle-aged man, and his shrewd-looking eyes began to size him up from head to toe.
When did that stupid woman get to know this person? Why was he unaware?
The middle-aged man recognized Yan Rusheng and gave him a curt bow. âHi, President Yan. I just came back from a work trip from X City, and bought back some of the local delicacies for Madam Yan.â
He lifted the bags of stuff to show Yan Rusheng.
âWhatâs that? And thereâs a stench!â
Young Master Yan, who was obsessed with cleanliness, caught a whiff of a pungent stench. He frowned and quickly took a step back. He continued surveying him from head to toe and asked, âWho are you?â
âIâm Zhao Hu,â he replied instantly. âMadam Yan is kind-hearted, and she had helped me out of a fix. Iâm very thankful to her, and I didnât know how to express my gratitude.â
Yan Rusheng eyed him suspiciously. âWhat do you mean?â
That dumb woman had expanded her charity business? Even helping adults?
