Chapter 19: Stealing a Chicken, Losing the Rice
Zhang Xiuli instigated that if they could seize Yan Nuo's company, given how much the old lady doted on her husband, her family would get the largest share of the property. Zhang Xiuli was really coveting the money, and also the Yinwan Mansion where Yan Nuo lived.
She and her husband moved back to the old house with their children, firstly to save money, and secondly to please the old lady so that when the old lady died, the old house would be hers.
"Then keep investigating. Yan Nuo is so young, how could she possibly hide? How come you can't even find her? Are you dumber than her? She's only twenty years old."
Zhang Xiuli widened her eyes, tried her luck, and flattered, "If you hadn't let Yan Nuo go, I would have been able to force the company out even under torture."
The old lady chuckled: "What are you thinking about? Do you really want the police to investigate her poisoning? You think your life is too comfortable now, right?"
Zhang Xiuli suddenly didn't dare to speak.
"Is it not necessary to renovate it?" Yan Sidi asked happily.
The old lady said: "Yes, you three families can discuss it together and give me the money."
Zhang Xiuli's face turned green. "Mom, you know, Haisong needs money for everything, and we have to raise three sons. It's not easy. I haven't bought new clothes for a long time."
While she was crying, she quietly stuffed the luxury bag that she had just bought yesterday for 300,000 yuan behind her back.
Old Lady Yan's frown was so tight that it could kill a fly. "I don't care. Give me one million anyway. I'll renovate the house inside and out. It'll cost three million. One million for each room is just right."
"I'll go back and discuss it with Haisong." Zhang Xiuli lowered her eyes to hide the viciousness in them.
What a miscalculation! She'd instigated the old woman to ask Yan Nuo for nine million, giving her eight million, and her own family would secretly get one million. Even if the old woman wanted to renovate the house, that was no problem. But Yan Nuo, contrary to his usual behavior, just walked away without giving her a penny, and her second family lost a million for nothing. What kind of a deal? Zhang Xiuli hated herself for not getting what she wanted.
If Yan Nuo breaks off relations with the Yan family, the old lady will have to ask them for money every month in the future.
"I want to see the money tomorrow." After giving this order, Old Mrs. Yan left the restaurant with her cane.
Yan Sidi came to Zhang Xiuli and muttered, "Mom, what should we do now? If we give Grandma one million, will my brothers and I be unable to buy new clothes? I have a very important banquet to attend the day after tomorrow."
Zhang Xiuli said angrily, "I bought you so many clothes, why don't you just wear any of them? I don't have money left to buy you clothes. The rest of the money should be used to buy clothes for your three younger brothers and enroll them in cram schools. Your second brother will take the college entrance examination next year, and I have to pay a lot of money to hire a famous teacher to tutor him. You can sell those high-end imitation bags I bought for you on second-hand websites. If you can make a few hundred, it's a few hundred. Put it on my card."
Yan Sidi didn't dare to say anything, for fear that her mother would ask her to sell her clothes as well.
Having won a victory, Yan Nuo walked out of the old house and got on a business car. In the car, Yan's mother smiled with satisfaction and said, "Our young lady has grown up."
Yan Nuo raised his eyebrows proudly and coughed solemnly, "I've grown up. I finally made it to graduation. I don't have to bother with their expressions or pay them anymore! Mom Yan, when we get home, stop the old lady's card and don't send her money anymore."
Originally, if the old lady had lived in peace, Yan Nuo would not have fallen out with them. It was just that they were too greedy and wanted to suck her bone marrow dry, which Yan Nuo could not tolerate.
When her parents passed away, Yan Nuo was still young. Her grandmother brought her a share transfer document and asked her to sign it, and she signed it without thinking, giving her 45% of her father's shares to the old lady. Meanwhile, several major projects that her father had negotiated were snatched up by his three uncles: a resort, a development zone real estate project, and a promising ceramics company. While they were grabbing the credit, they never thought of giving a penny to her, an orphan.
If they didn't force him, Yan Nuo could still live in peace, but the old lady wanted to be a vampire, and Yan Nuo refused to accompany her. She was not a stupid blood bag.
"Miss, I don't think that Old Madam Yan will let it go." Ever since Yan Nuo was poisoned, Yan's mother didn't want to respect Old Madam Yan. She felt that this old lady was not worthy of being someone's grandmother. She knew that someone in the family was harming her granddaughter, but she could remain indifferent and even helped to conceal it.
Whenever she thought of the poisoning, Yan's mother couldn't help but spit in her heart, wanting to drown that heartless old man with her saliva.
Yan Nuo raised an eyebrow: "It's okay, I will go traveling with Yueyue in a few days."
Only then did Yan Nuo feel relieved. She looked out the window and suddenly felt a little itchy in her mouth: "Yan Nuo, let's go to Yunyue Cafe!"
Yunyue Cafe is a shop opened by Xu Ziyue's mother Cui Lin. It sells milk tea, coffee, cakes, and bread, and is an all-in-one young restaurant. All the shops on the street where the shop is located are owned by Yan Nuo. When Yan Nuo learned that Ziyue's mother wanted to open a shop, he gave one of the popular shops here to Ziyue's mother to open a milk tea shop.
