The next day.
Old Madam Yu finally agreed to let Yu Chiyan and Su Yaoyao live together in the old house, but the man didn't come back last night. Instead, he went to Su Qingqing's place to spend the night.
Su Yaoyao's face was strangely calm, almost numb. She deleted the photo of the two of them snuggling together on her phone without hesitation, but Su Qingqing immediately sent her a message.
"Su Yaoyao, you can't beat me. Do you think Yu Chiyan is keeping you around because he cares about you? Let me tell you, I'm keeping you around only so you can shield me from harm. As for why, I'm sure you'll find out soon enough."
Upon seeing this message, her brow twitched instinctively, but she quickly regained her composure.
To shield Su Qingqing from a sword?
Su Yaoyao sneered inwardly. If pushed too far, she could become the sword that pierces her.
She blocked the number, turned off her phone, and continued simmering the medicinal food in the pot.
After her modifications, the old lady is now much more enthusiastic about drinking the medicinal diet, and she's already waiting at the door.
"Yaoyao, are you done yet? When can we eat?"
Su Yaoyao gave a helpless smile; "It'll be ready soon, Grandma. Go back and sit down, I'll bring it out right away."
The old lady smelled the faint, refreshing fragrance wafting from inside, smacked her lips, and said, "Alright, then I'll go back to the dining table and wait for you."
She took two steps, then stopped and called out to Su Yaoyao in the kitchen, "By the way, Yaoyao, can you make me two snacks today?"
She clung to the doorframe, blinking repeatedly at Su Yaoyao.
Su Yaoyao sighed and said, "Grandma, it's almost time to eat."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Yu immediately pouted; "Yaoyao, do you not like this old woman anymore?"
Su Yaoyao paused in her movements. She subconsciously wanted to speak in rebuttal, but found that she couldn't utter a word.
She was very concerned about the fact that Madam Yu was hiding the fact that Yu Chiyan was keeping Su Qingqing as a mistress...
Therefore, her attitude towards the old lady changed.
However, Madam Yu seemed oblivious to this, continuing to feign pitifulness: "I knew it, Yaoyao has changed her mind and doesn't like this old woman anymore. In that case, let my mouth continue to taste like birds, and let her continue to torment me."
As she spoke, she almost burst into tears.
Su Yaoyao's eyes twitched violently twice. Grandma was actually a drama queen?
Seeing that she was about to continue, Su Yaoyao quickly reached out to stop her.
"Okay, Grandma, I'll make you some delicious food this afternoon. Just eat your lunch properly, okay?"
The goal has been achieved, so why not?
"Thank you, Yaoyao!"
A big smile spread across her face as she hummed a cheerful tune and left.
Su Yaoyao: "..."
...
The Imperial Court.
In the conference room, Yu Chiyan sat in the main seat in the center, his handsome, angular face clearly displaying a "keep away" attitude.
"The president of the Huo Group is currently in the hospital. I hope that a plan to acquire the Huo Group can be finalized before he leaves the hospital."
Everyone looked excited. Now that the president of Huo Group was in trouble, this was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity for them to acquire Huo Group!
"President, please rest assured. We will definitely deliver a satisfactory solution within three days."
Yu Chiyan stood up and nodded; "Then I'll wait for your good news."
After saying this, the man strode out of the conference room.
After Jiang Chen announced the end of the meeting, he followed Yu Chiyan and asked softly.
"Master, if Madam finds out about acquiring the Huo Group at this time..."
Yu Chiyan frowned upon hearing this, then relaxed his grip; "Then don't let her know."
Huo Xiting was taken aback; "Master, what do you mean?"
"Isn't Chairman An of the Huo family eager to get rid of Su Yaoyao? Just grant his wish."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen immediately nodded; "Yes, President, I understand."
Yu Chiyan pushed open the office door and saw a yellow figure sitting on the sofa.
She wore her hair in a bun, looking charming and adorable. When she saw Yu Chiyan, she smiled sweetly.
"Chi Yan".
Yu Chiyan's lips drooped slightly as he looked at her expressionlessly. "Why are you here?"
Su Qingqing's face stiffened slightly, and then she explained in a somewhat panicked manner, "Ah... Auntie went out to buy groceries at noon. I was scared to stay at home alone, so I came to find you, Chi Yan. I'm sorry, I'm too clingy. I'll leave now."
With red eyes, she turned and left as expected. Yu Chiyan rubbed his temples and spoke in a cold voice.
"Never mind, don't go any further. It's lunchtime now. I'll have someone take you home after you eat."
Upon hearing that Yu Chiyan was going to take her out to eat, Su Qingqing immediately stopped crying and started laughing.
"Really? Thank you, Chi Yan, you're so kind to me!"
Yu Chiyan nodded; "Yes, if you want to thank me, hurry up and get better."
Su Qingqing's expression stiffened slightly; "You...you don't need to worry, I will cooperate with the psychologist and take my medication properly!"
Yu Chiyan didn't speak, but nodded lightly, instructed someone to make a restaurant reservation, and then left the company with Su Qingqing.
Meanwhile, Su Yaoyao had just come out after visiting Huo Xiting.
The doctor said Huo Xiting was recovering very well and believed he would wake up soon. Thinking of this, my heavy mood finally eased a bit.
With Huo Xiting in trouble, she was worried about whether the Huo family business would be thrown into turmoil, so she called Wen Qing.
"It's alright. These people in the company wouldn't dare to do anything underhanded. Miss Su, you don't need to worry about the company. You just need to take good care of President Huo and help him wake up soon."
Hearing his relaxed tone, Su Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Don't worry, I just went to see Xiting. The doctor said he's recovering very well and should wake up in a few days."
Wenqing's voice immediately lit up with joy: "That's wonderful!"
Su Yaoyao smiled, and the two exchanged a few more words before finally hanging up the phone.
Coincidentally, Shen Jia and Jiang Wen, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, both invited her out that evening.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yaoyao decided to create a three-person group chat to reply to everyone at once. It would also be a good opportunity for Jiang Wen and Shen Jia to get to know each other, since they were both her friends.
After she introduced herself, the two chatted for a while across the screen and quickly became good friends.
Shen Jia said that today a lewd man asked for her WeChat, but she refused. As a result, the man cursed at her in the street, which made her hate and fear men. In order to prevent her condition from getting worse, she plans to go to Meise tonight and ask for ten male models to cleanse her eyes.
Jiang Wen quickly replied, "I'll only select the ten most handsome guys from Meise."
Shen Jia: "Miss Jiang has won my heart."
Jiang Wen: "You flatter me."
Su Yaoyao wasn't interested in male models, so Jiang Wen showed her a photo.
It's a photo of Yu Chiyan and Su Qingqing having lunch together.
"Yu Chiyan has women on the side while keeping his wife at home. Are you content with that? He can have dinner with beautiful women and be all lovey-dovey, but you can't appreciate a handsome man? Women need to know how to appreciate men."
Shen Jia tagged Jiang Wen and sent two strong emojis.
Looking at the photo, and recalling the words Su Qingqing had posted that morning, Su Yaoyao curled her lips into a smile.
"Alright, then I'll go admire some of the handsome guys today."
