28: Chapter 24 I’ll Be with You

28 -24 I’ll Be with You

“You’ve gone too far!” Xiao Yuan’s face turned pale with anger, and her voice grew much louder.

This Chengfeng City’s Xinfeng Tiandi was the property of her Xiao Family, a business established by her grandfather.

Why shouldn’t she come to inspect it?

If she couldn’t, then who could?

“Heh heh…

Miss, it seems that you’re the one who is being presumptuous!” However, the more furious Xiao Yuan became, the less the young man seemed to fear her.

Even the black-suited bodyguards standing by his side remained indifferent.

“You…” Xiao Yuan lifted her head, her beautiful eyes sharp as she stared at the young man.

“You’re fired!!!

From today onwards, get out of the Xiao Family!”

“Miss, I’m afraid I can’t comply with your wishes.

Unless the young master says I’m fired, no one else, including you, Miss, has the authority,” the young man said seriously, not showing the slightest nervousness at the mention of being fired.

“…” Xiao Yuan trembled with rage.

The young master?

The young master he referred to was nothing but a treacherous wolf, a venomous snake, someone who had no connection with her or her grandfather.

Her grandfather had only one granddaughter in his lifetime.

This young master, named Xiao Heming, had a father who was the steward of the Xiao Family for nearly thirty years, loyally serving the grandfather.

In his old age, he had Xiao Heming.

Late, before the old steward died, he entrusted Xiao Heming to the grandfather.

The grandfather, acknowledging the steward’s lifetime of hard work, never treated Xiao Heming as a servant, but rather as his adopted grandson.

Xiao Heming was exceptional from a young age, especially in his studies, always ranking among the top few.

Six years ago, he scored among the top thirty in the province and was admitted to a renowned university in China.

Three years ago, Xiao Heming was accepted into the graduate program at Columbia University in America.

In short, Xiao Heming was a scholar.

Originally, her relationship with Xiao Heming was quite good when they were young; she viewed him as an older brother and admired his academic achievements.

However, after Xiao Heming went to college, they lost contact.

More than ten days ago, Xiao Heming suddenly returned from America, and she was very happy.

After all, the Xiao Family had only a few members.

Even though Xiao Heming wasn’t a member by blood, he was her brother in name, and with her grandfather’s health declining, he could have helped alleviate some of her burden.

Xiao Heming did not disappoint her.

Over the past ten days, he had managed the businesses under the Xiao Family’s name efficiently.

This was, of course, a good thing, but in recent days, she had begun to feel that something was not right.

Firstly, Xiao Heming seemed too close to the high-level executives and technical experts of the Xiao Family’s companies such as Xinfeng Tiandi Shopping Mall, Xinfeng Transportation Company, and Xinfeng Home Appliances.

Secondly, a highly professional team of lawyers had suddenly appeared by Xiao Heming’s side, following him every day and appearing to be plotting something for him.

Thirdly, she managed several of the Xiao Family’s companies, but now everyone was acting as if they had agreed to ignore her, and even at this moment, her visit to Xinfeng Tiandi was obstructed.

Fourth, and what infuriated Xiao Yuan the most, was that Xiao Heming had supposedly returned to Chengfeng City to visit their grandfather.

Yet, since his return, all his energy had been spent on the company and not on the grandfather’s health.

Xiao Yuan was no fool; she was certain that Xiao Heming was coveting the Xiao Family’s property!!!

His return to the country was anything but well-intentioned!

“Miss, if you don’t want to be embarrassed, then please go back,” the young man snorted.

“Just enjoy your life as a young lady, and you can still live happily ever after.

As for things that don’t belong to you, don’t touch them, lest you suffer serious consequences!”

“Things that don’t belong to me?” Xiao Yuan’s delicate body swayed, taking a step back.

Her beautiful face twisted into a bitter smile.

The Xiao Family’s assets had now become things she shouldn’t touch?

Ridiculous, truly ridiculous!

Well done, Xiao Heming!

What a strategy!

“You few, escort the young lady back!” The young man then ordered the black-suited bodyguards beside him.

The black-suited bodyguards nodded gravely.

“Xiao Si, has the Xiao Family mistreated you over the years?

Is this how you repay them?” The next second, Xiao Yuan asked, word by word, her voice cold.

The young man in front of her was Xiao Si, who had been with the Xiao Family for some time and served as the head of the bodyguards.

Whether it was Grandpa or herself, they had never been harsh to those who served in the Xiao Family, providing high salaries and even bonuses during festivals and holidays.

But human hearts…

Xiao Si and Xiao Heming really weren’t much different, both insatiable wolves.

“Miss, you and the master are just too kind, so following you, there’s no future!” Xiao Si took a deep breath, his eyes shimmering with a touch of complexity.

Then, that complexity was snuffed out, leaving only indifference. ƒreewebɳovel.com

“Please, Miss!” The next second, several black-clad bodyguards surrounded Xiao Yuan, all of them stretching out their hands in invitation, pointing towards the door of Xinfeng Tiandi Shopping Mall.

Xiao Yuan felt lost, shaking her head.

She had no choice but to go!

If not leaving, what could she do?

Was she, a mere girl, supposed to fight Xiao Si and the others?

“Xiao Yuan!” However, before Xiao Yuan could even take a step, just then, abruptly, a voice echoed.

Xiao Yuan instinctively looked up and saw Su Chen!!!

She was somewhat curious, as she did not know the young man before her, but he seemed to recognize her?

Su Chen stared at Xiao Yuan, his heart tender.

Seeing her again, how wonderful.

Regarding Xiao Yuan and Xiao Heming, Su Chen was well aware.

In his past life, after being saved by Xiao Yuan and taken into the Xiao Family, he had stayed there for half a year.

During that half year, Xiao Yuan was exhausted to the bone, forcing herself from an esteemed jewel into a powerful woman.

In the end, Xiao Yuan defeated Xiao Heming and preserved the Xiao Family’s assets.

For a girl like her to bear such burdens was truly not easy.

Even, in his past life, the strange illness that Xiao Yuan suffered from, which erupted in the following half year, was related to her overwork and suppressed emotions.

“This life, Yuan’er, I will protect the Xiao Family and Grandpa!” Su Chen murmured to himself.

“Sir, who are you…” Xiao Si looked at Su Chen, frowning slightly, but, his tone still maintained a semblance of politeness.

“Yuan’er, today, I’ll accompany you to inspect Xinfeng Tiandi!” Su Chen ignored Xiao Si, still fixing his gaze on Xiao Yuan, his smile warm and comforting.

Yuan’er?

Xiao Yuan was taken aback and even more curious.

Why did he seem as if he had known her for many years, as if he were her closest kin?

Moreover, his calling her Yuan’er felt incredibly natural.

Although she wasn’t used to the nickname, she didn’t particularly feel dislike or aversion to it, which was indeed strange.

After all, this was their first meeting!

Xiao Yuan stood frozen in place, somewhat at a loss for what to do.

“Sir, please don’t block the way!!!” Xiao Si’s face darkened, annoyed that Su Chen had disregarded him and also because Su Chen called Xiao Yuan ‘Yuan’er’, seeming to imply that this young man was quite familiar with Xiao Yuan.

“Get lost!” Su Chen finally turned to look at Xiao Si.
