This really was an enigma to Xi Xiaye.

As Mu Yuchen listened, he lowered his head and pondered thoughtfully while Xi Xiaye said with slight waning enthusiasm, “Forget it. Let’s not think too much about it. I’ll see if Senior Chu can get a clearer picture on this tomorrow.”

“Senior Chu?” Mu Yuchen very quickly caught onto the keywords.

Xi Xiaye smiled calmly. “Director Chu from our company. He used to be from downtown too. He’s three years older than Su Nan and I, and he’s very good friends with Ruan Heng. Previously, I wasn’t close with him either. Later on, after he joined Glory World, he’s been following VP Liu and we’ve collaborated quite a few times, so we started to get close.”

“I can see that you’re pretty close to him.” The man meaningfully narrowed his eyes at her and smiled faintly.

Xi Xiaye thought about it earnestly, then gladly nodded. “I guess. Senior Chu does look out for me. Back then, when I just joined the company, I had him to thank for all the help.”

“I couldn’t tell. You’re pretty wanted in the market! And there’s that Wang Ziluo…” He laughed and his gaze started to look at her with interest.

Xi Xiaye shrugged as she raised her brows. “Wang Ziluo is from a few centuries ago! In fact, I heard that he already has a fiancè. As for Senior Chu, VP Chen from our department is going after him rather eagerly…”

…

The next day, when Xi Xiaye woke up it was already close to 10 a.m., so the husband and wife simply tidied up the room a little. After lunch, just as they were about to leave the house, Xi Xiaye unexpectedly received someone’s call. It was Deng Wenwen!

“Take a trip out. There’s something you should be quite interested in. I’ll be waiting for you at the New Era Plaza. Otherwise, I can also go look for you at Glory World Corporation!”

Deng Wenwen still sounded so powerful and high and mighty when she said this. Without waiting for Xi Xiaye to answer, she hung up.

Xi Xiaye stared at the screen that dimmed as her starry eyes went cold. She suddenly tightened her grip on the phone and hostility appeared on her beautiful face.

She took in a deep breath and put on an icy smile. Then, she tossed the phone aside and then started the car. “Let’s make a trip to the New Era Plaza first.”

“Did something came up from the other side again?” Mu Yuchen, who was reading a magazine on the front passenger’s seat, saw that she looked upset, so he asked as he casually flipped another page.

Xi Xiaye did not answer and just calmly sped up.

When they reached the New Era Plaza, Xi Xiaye found a parking spot underneath the coffee shop. Unbuckling her safety belt, she then turned to say to him, “I’ll be going up for a bit, but I’ll be back down very quickly. Just wait for me here.”

Mu Yuchen, who was closing his eyes to rest, slowly opened his eyes. His deep eyes took a look around and looked towards the coffee shop outside the car window. Then, he nodded. “Go then.”

When she found Deng Wenwen, the woman was leisurely drinking her coffee. It seemed that she had waited for quite a while.

“Why did you take so long?” When she saw Xi Xiaye, Deng Wenwen did not look too pleased. Xi Xinyi’s scandal was now worsening and everything had stemmed from Xi Xiaye before her. Naturally, she was resentful.

“If you’re not happy with waiting for so long, you didn’t have to keep waiting.” Xi Xiaye was not courteous as well. She just sat right across her, and facing Deng Wenwen with a threatening aura, she remained extremely calm as she usually did.

“If there’s anything, just spit it out. I’d like to hear what important thing you have to tell me.”

“I know that you’re not very happy about me looking for your mother to ask for that document back. If that document is with you, I hope that you can hand it over. Otherwise, it would just be useless with you.” Deng Wenwen did not mind getting right to the point either.

Indeed, it was about this again!

“Yueying’s 20% of shares… That was compensation for my mother from Father. Why should you be asking us for this? I don’t mind telling you either that the document has already been signed and is in effect. In fact, I’ve already sold it to someone else.”

“Sold it to someone else? Who did you sell it to? Yueying is our Xi family’s property. How dare you sell it as you wish? I hope that you can hand it over yourself. I can compensate you. Just give me a copy. For the sake of you mother and daughter both, I, Deng Wenwen won’t treat you unfairly! No matter what, the 20% of shares can’t be sold! You should remember that this is enough to waver the foundation of my Yueying!” Deng Wenwen demanded with a stern voice and a hardened expression on her aged face.

“Previously, I seem to have mentioned to Yue Lingsi the price: one billion. If you can, then show me this sum of money and maybe I’ll consider it, CEO Deng.”

“Xiaye, you’re really asking for a lot. You’re all grown up now but you even dare to say such things to me! You’re too much!”

Deng Wenwen felt her blood pressure rise hearing Xi Xiaye. Her eyes leaped with fireworks and fury was apparent in her entire body language.

“Back then, when you forced me to sign the document, weren’t you even worse?” Xi Xiaye was not moved and she retorted coldly.

“Okay! Okay! Initially, I didn’t want to make things this miserable, but since you won’t understand my earnest efforts, don’t blame me for being rude! Yueying is my life’s work. It’s my life! Whoever dares to touch it means that they’re asking for my life, and whoever wants my life, I won’t be courteous with! Whoever that may be!”

As Deng Wenwen asserted this, she tossed a document to Xi Xiaye. “This should hold enough weight!”

Xi Xiaye’s starry eyes squinted. She shot an indifferent look at Deng Wenwen, then calmly took the file and opened it. She pulled the document out from within and casually flipped it to skim through.

However, she had only taken a few glances when her beautiful face sank. Her eyes were instantly condensed with gloominess and bitterness. She quickly flipped through it a few more times before she looked up with hostility, staring in disbelief at Deng Wenwen.

As if she was very satisfied with Xi Xiaye’s reaction, Deng Wenwen’s aged face flashed with a victorious and delighted smile. “I know that you care quite a bit about that orphanage. All these years, you’ve been sponsoring them too, so it should be quite special to you. Coincidentally, it’s about time for its demolishment. If you’re willing to hand over the document you have in exchange for it, then this land will be yours. Now, this should be quite worth it, shouldn’t it? If you still think it’s not enough, I can add on another five million, but this is as far as my kindness goes!”

Xi Xiaye clenched onto the document until the tips of her fingers turned pale and she trembled slightly. Then, she suddenly breathed in and there was a tight pain in her chest that could not be suppressed. Despair and pain appeared in her twinkling eyes that had endured so much while she glared in disbelief at Deng Wenwen who smiled with such lack of regard…

It was not sure how long passed before she suddenly lowered her head. Her beautiful, long hair had already covered her pale little face as an indescribable feeling of repressed emotions started to expand.

It seemed like despair and sorrow, but even more so, it seemed like coldness…
