Chapter 495: Here to cause trouble again

Before leaving, Xiaojie sent a text message to Tu Ran.

—Doctor Tu, we're leaving. There's no need to mention this to anyone, including Miss Shen.

——My master has always been low-key and doesn’t like to be known.

——Please don’t ask anything about Mr. Wu’s affairs.

——Doctor Tu, please have a good rest and get well soon.

——By the way, the surveillance records of our visit to Tianyi Pavilion today have been deleted beyond the reach of hackers. No one knows we have been here. Doctor Tu should understand what I mean.

I have to say that Xiaojie is very thoughtful and expresses himself clearly.

He wanted Tu Ran to keep it a secret, and also wanted to tell Tu Ran not to tell Xie Nancheng.

Even though this is Xie Nancheng's house, they will not leave any traces of their presence.

But isn't this a bit too cautious?

So what if Xie Nancheng knew?

Xie Nancheng knew her character best and would definitely not misunderstand her.

——Got it. Thank Mr. Nie for me.

Why thank you?

Because after the white paper burned, Tu Ran felt that the little bit of energy that was missing from his body was slowly returning. This feeling was extremely magical.

Even if you sit still, the area around your dantian will start to heat up.

Energy begins to radiate from around the navel and travels throughout the body.

She didn't expect that a seemingly insignificant person could actually replenish the innate qi. This was amazing.

Because she had studied medicine for many years, but had not found any elixir that could replenish her innate qi.

Of course, the essence of the Centennial Ginseng King is acceptable.

But she did not acknowledge the consumption and only wanted to find an opportunity to recover slowly.

But Nie Xiu was right. What if her enemies came to cause trouble while she was recuperating?

On the other hand, it was not convenient for Xie Nancheng to find his father's white moonlight, but it was convenient for the old lady.

The old lady of the Xie family was unintentionally angry about Xie Huailan's detention.

I want to solve the stupid problem of my eldest son.

So, the day came to Joe Kolan’s new shop.

"Welcome." She greeted sweetly and warmly.

The old lady of the Xie family was wearing a new Chinese-style jacket, blue-gray in color, and black trousers that were exclusively customized by a luxury brand.

The old lady was supported by Pinggu, and followed by a bodyguard and a driver.

Rich people from such wealthy families do always show off in a grand manner when they go out.

Qiao Kelan was no longer surprised.

"Are you the owner?" asked the old lady.

"Yes, what can I do for you?" Qiao Kelan looked at the old lady warily since she didn't seem to be buying clothes.

"Do you know Xie Huaiyu?"

When Qiao Kelan heard these three words, his expression changed slightly.

"I'm his mother."

After being stunned for three seconds, Qiao Kelan immediately greeted her with a smile, "It's you, my auntie. I'm sorry for not knowing the etiquette. Please come in. I'll make you some tea."

"Don't bother. I didn't come here to drink tea."

"I have a few words to say to you alone."

The old lady didn't look deliberately sullen, but she didn't smile either.

Qiao Kelan immediately understood.

"There's a small lounge in the back. I'll take you there."

Then, the two of them came to the lounge one after the other.

Qiao Kelan still nervously made a pot of tea for the old lady.

The old lady folded her hands on her knees and looked at Qiao Kelan.

"You are indeed very beautiful."

"Aunt, please don't make fun of me. I'm old."

"You must not like me, because I opposed it back then that you broke up." The old lady changed the subject.

"Aunt, that was many years ago."

"But you haven't let it go. Look, you come back to find my son again." The old lady raised the corner of her mouth slightly.

There was nothing wrong with what he said, but Qiao Kelan blushed immediately.

"Aunt, I'm afraid you misunderstood."

"It's true that I married someone from another place, but my daughter is attending university in Hong Kong."

"I just came back not long ago, and I didn't come back for Huaiyu."

"Huai Yu?" Old Mrs. Xie did not miss this detail and frowned.

"I didn't come back for Mr. Xie. Auntie, you can check the time I will be back."

"I don't have the heart to check you."

"But I really don't like you."

"I don't want to waste time. Just tell me what you want."

"Aunt..." Qiao Kelan tried to explain.

"Your sweet talk has no effect on me. I won't fall for it."

"Stop beating around the bush."

"Just tell me, what do you want?"

"If I think it's worth it, I'll give it to you."

"Aunt, it's not what you think. I don't want anything."

"Then you took more than three million from my son?" Old Mrs. Xie sneered.

"That's Huai... That's the money Mr. Xie invested in me. We're doing business together."

"Well, it's indeed a partnership. Any losses are hers, and any profits are split equally between you two, right? Ms. Qiao, do you think any man in today's society would be willing to be so stupid? Hmm?"

"I refused at the time, but Mr. Xie insisted on helping me... We are classmates after all. I will repay Mr. Xie for his help."

"Help? Haha, are you sure you are just classmates?" Old Mrs. Xie's sharp eyes made Qiao Kelan dare not raise her head.

"We were lovers at first, but now we're just classmates."

"So which male classmate would spend the night at a female classmate's house, huh? What's the rule?" Old Mrs. Xie didn't give any face and directly pointed out what happened last night.

It was true that Xie Huaiyu stayed at her house last night, but the two of them slept in two bedrooms and nothing happened.

Of course, it’s not that she doesn’t want it to happen, but she feels the time is not right.

"Aunt, we are not what you think..."

"Shut up, I told you, I don't have the patience to deal with you."

"I hated you decades ago, and I still hate you now."

"As long as I'm alive, you'll never be able to enter the Xie family."

"Aunt, I didn't..."

"Tell me, how much money do you want to get out of here?" Although the old lady didn't want to pay, she was willing to pay if money could get rid of this dog-skin plaster, at least she was willing to buy peace and quiet.

On the other side, Lin Chen sent a message to Tu Ran using Mrs. Lin’s WeChat.

Mrs. Lin: Sister Ranran, I am your brother Chen.

Mrs. Lin: I have important news to tell you.

Tu Ran took a look and ignored it.

Of the Lin family, only Mrs. Lin’s WeChat is left, and in fact, they should all be deleted.

Tu Ran picked up the phone and was about to click delete.

The message popped up again——

Mrs. Lin: Didn’t Xie Nancheng tell you who he saw last night?

Tu Ran was stunned. What did this mean?

Who else can I see? This Lin family is more trouble-making than the other.

Mrs. Lin: Haha, seeing as you're silent, you probably don't know. That's right, Xie Nancheng is a very cunning fellow. He didn't really love you to begin with, he was just using you, so naturally he wouldn't tell you this. I guess the whole of Xiangcheng knows, but you still don't.

Tu Ran: Just say what you want to say. Don’t play this trick on me. I’m deleting this WeChat account now.

Mrs. Lin: Lu Xuaner is back and met Xie Nancheng last night.

After reading this sentence, Tu Ran was stunned. Lu Xuan'er?

Did you meet Xie Nancheng last night?

But he certainly didn't say a word to her.
