Chapter 481: Chapter 395: Is the Birth Mother Indifferent like a Chrysanthemum? The Young Miss Turns the Tables with a Reckless Move 35
The bodyguards exchanged puzzled looks, unable to guess what their boss was really thinking.
However, they felt that this was not sothing they should be concerned about, so they shook their heads and stood aside waiting.
At this mont, Uncle Xie was so elated that he couldn’t contain himself.
He had always wanted to bring Yanshang down, but try as he might, he just couldn’t find any faults in Yanshang. Young and accomplished, Yanshang was careful to never make mistakes; he followed the rules diligently, displaying both strength and ambition. In the eyes of others, he was the perfect heir to the Xie Family. Most people recognized Yanshang as the heir, but Uncle Xie was never satisfied. He wanted to succeed him and topple Yanshang from his position.
Yanshang’s private life was impeccable; he never flirted or ssed around, and due to his dical studies, he didn’t even touch cigarettes or alcohol. He barely had any friends of questionable character.
In the circles of socialites, Yanshang was regarded as the most eligible bachelor, yet for years he showed no interest in romance, much to the disappointnt of many heiresses.
If he but asked, Uncle Xie was certain that the line of won pursuing him could stretch all the way to outer space.
After much deliberation, Uncle Xie finally found sothing that wasn’t quite a handle, yet could be exploited—Yanshang was still unmarried with no children, and was nearing the age of thirty without any prospects in sight.
If the old man found out now that Yanshang was seeing a sickly and thin minor, he would certainly step in to scold his good nephew. At that ti, with a few embellishnts from Uncle Xie, he could sow discord between the grandfather and grandson, and then take the opportunity to climb the ladder.
With this thought in mind, Uncle Xie imdiately took out his mobile phone from his briefcase, hurriedly opened his contacts, and then dialed the old man’s number.
“Hello?” The voice ca from the other end.
“Dad, it’s . I wonder how you’ve been feeling lately?” Uncle Xie imdiately inquired with concern, “I’ve been worried about you since we haven’t seen each other for a long ti.”
“Everything’s fine, there’s no need to worry,” replied the old man, whose voice sounded as if he was moving away; the mobile phone seed to have been placed on the table.
“Do you have ti later? I’d like to have a drink with you and chat,” Uncle Xie asked the old master on the other end of the line in a respectful tone.
“Oh, co on over,” the old master seed to be flipping through a newspaper, his response was indifferent.
Unable to hide his excitent, Uncle Xie quickly ordered the bodyguards to clean up and then, with his docunt bag, got into the car and drove off.
Tonight was the perfect opportunity for him to make his complaint.

After Yanshang and Su Zhiruan descended the stairs, the bodyguards dispersed.
The doorn at the gate bowed deeply to them, and the valet took the keys and went to bring Yanshang’s car around.
The two stood side by side at the entrance, talking.
Su Zhiruan looked at Yanshang and asked, “Mr. Xie, were you working just now? I really apologize for the delay.”
“It was just so minor matters, no worries. After all, it was the Xie family’s relatives who held you up first,” Yanshang said as he saw the car approaching. He opened the passenger door for Su Zhiruan, propped himself on the roof to let her in, and continued, “What are your plans next? I just so happen to be free, I can give you a ride.”
“I was planning to look at so apartnts today. I can go on my own,” said Su Zhiruan, opening the notepad on her phone where she had ticulously organized her housing rental search and the apartnts she was interested in.
Seeing her detailed preparations, Yanshang nodded and got into the car as well.
The car rged into traffic, and during a pause at a red light, it seed as though sothing suddenly occurred to Yanshang.
“If you’re interested, I have an apartnt next to Jinghua University. It’s been vacant for a while, and I don’t often go there. I was just thinking about finding a tenant, and you’re welco to take a look at it,” Yanshang said, glancing at her with one hand on the steering wheel. “I think it would suit you well.”
“If that’s possible, it would be great, Dr. Xie,” Su Zhiruan said, her eyes brightening upon hearing his offer. Naturally, a property belonging to Yanshang would be dependable. Moreover, his constant busyness made it understandable for him to have a few unoccupied properties, and renting one of his apartnts would an more contact opportunities.
Plus, being close to the university would make things more convenient once she started attending college.
Yanshang nodded and then he drove, taking her with him to see the apartnt.
Along the way, they chatted sporadically.
“When do you start university?”
“It should be at the end of August, and then military training begins in September,” Su Zhiruan estimated, figuring it was almost two months from now.
