Chapter 1181: Don’t Worry, I’ll Tell No One
“Then tell me!” Yu Xiaoran revealed an interested expression, and he leaned forward to listen.
Lu Qiaoqiao pursed her thin lips and lowered her voice. “She’s the CEO of M Group.”
This slightly stunned Yu Xiaoran. M Group?
Seeing Brother Xiaoran’s reaction, Lu Qiaoqiao knew he did not understand. She could not help but click her tongue and say, “It’s the corporation behind East Sea Real Estate. You should know East Sea Real Estate, right?!”
!!Yu Xiaoran was also from the real estate industry, so seeing that he did not react to M Group, Lu Qiaoqiao directly mentioned East Sea Real Estate.
As expected, when he heard East Sea Real Estate, Yu Xiaoran immediately understood. “You’re talking about M Group? The M Group of the top ten celebrity enterprises in Baiyun City this year?”
“That’s right. That’s the one!” Lu Qiaoqiao quickly nodded. “That girl is the CEO of this corporation.”
Yu Xiaoran looked at Lu Qiaoqiao’s serious expression. Two seconds later, he couldn’t help but chuckle. “Stop fooling around, Qiaoqiao. How old is she?”
Seeing that Brother Xiaoran did not believe her, Lu Qiaoqiao could not help but panic. “It’s true. My father said it himself. Otherwise, why do you think she appeared at the cocktail party for Hongxiang’s anniversary? My father personally invited her!”
“Ah?” When Yu Xiaoran heard this, he had no choice but to believe it.
He thought the girl had attended the cocktail party with the adults from her family.
“She… she’s really the CEO of M Group?” Yu Xiaoran looked shocked.
Because Yu Xiaoran’s family was also a real estate company and he was about to take over the family business, he knew the real estate market in Baiyun City very well in recent years. East Sea Real Estate’s reputation had soared in Baiyun City this year, so how could he not know of them?
However, he did not expect that the CEO behind this was her!
“Surprising, right? When my father told me, I didn’t believe him either!” Lu Qiaoqiao pursed her lips. Although she said it casually, she was a little jealous.
How could anyone not be jealous that a fifteen-year-old girl had such a big business and was doing so well?
Moreover, at that time, Lu Qiaoqiao initially wanted to figure out the other party’s background and let her father help her vent her anger. Unexpectedly, the other party’s true identity was the company’s CEO.
“I’m quite surprised. Then she’s quite powerful!” Yu Xiaoran muttered and sighed, as if he had not recovered for a while.
Lu Qiaoqiao glared at him. “Brother Xiaoran, don’t praise her!”
Yu Xiaoran was shocked and laughed. “This won’t do?”
“No!” Lu Qiaoqiao’s arrogance rose, and her eyes widened.
Yu Xiaoran quickly nodded in surrender. “Alright, alright. I won’t praise her!”
“Tsk!” Lu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but sneer. Her expression turned to disdain. “There’s nothing to be smug about. My father said that her East Sea Real Estate is Hongxiang’s competitor now. My father will think of a way to teach this company a lesson!”
This topic successfully attracted Yu Xiaoran’s attention. As a real estate businessman, Yu Xiaoran was naturally more concerned about such things.
“Uncle Lu said that he wants to teach East Sea Real Estate a lesson?” Yu Xiaoran asked in a low voice.
Lu Qiaoqiao smiled smugly, and a trace of viciousness flashed across the corners of her eyes. “That’s right! My father said that East Sea Real Estate’s momentum is too fierce. If he doesn’t take action now, it will become a future problem.”
“The most infuriating thing is that such a small real estate company ranked ahead of Hongxiang. It’s simply an insult to Hongxiang. My father won’t take this lying down.”
“He said that when he invited this Jian something to the cocktail party, he wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of person this young CEO behind the scenes was!”
Lu Qiaoqiao was not exaggerating. Lu Youcai had told her himself.
Both father and daughter had the same enemy, and she was his daughter. Therefore, Lu Youcai didn’t hide his emotions and said his thoughts.
When Yu Xiaoran heard this, his expression changed, but he was weighing the outcome of this matter in his heart.
Lu Qiaoqiao’s words were obviously very private and confidential. At least, Lu Youcai would not let any outsider know his true thoughts. However, Lu Qiaoqiao told Yu Xiaoran everything.
However, Lu Qiaoqiao didn’t forget to remind Yu Xiaoran, “Brother Xiaoran, you can’t tell anyone about this. I’ll only tell you this.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone!” Yu Xiaoran came back to his senses and quickly regained his expression. He sat up straight and said, “Hurry and order something. We’ve been sitting and chatting. The server is looking at us.”
Lu Qiaoqiao nodded happily and handed the menu to Yu Xiaoran. “Brother Xiaoran, order. I’ll go to the bathroom!”
“Alright, I’ll order!”
Watching Lu Qiaoqiao’s figure walk towards the bathroom at the back of the hotpot restaurant, the bright and warm smile on Yu Xiaoran’s face gradually froze and dissipated. The brilliance in his bright eyes faded, and a layer of unconcealed fatigue and disgust filled them.
…
After eating the hotpot, Jian Ai dragged her tired body home in satisfaction. Si Yue was sitting on the sofa in the living room watching television.
“Have you eaten?”
As soon as she entered, Jian Ai looked at Si Yue and asked.
Si Yue nodded. “I ate at Brother Bai Zhou’s place and came back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Si Yue’s nose twitched slightly. He looked at Jian Ai and said, “You went to eat hotpot?”
Jian Ai was stunned and sniffed her clothes. As expected, there was a hotpot smell. “Yes, I accompanied my mother to shop in the afternoon. We ate hotpot tonight. The smell is a little strong. I’ll take a shower!”
Jian Ai entered the room and changed into a comfortable bathrobe before entering the bathroom.
After washing up, Jian Ai felt that her body was much lighter, and the fatigue on her body had disappeared. When she came out of the bathroom, she saw Si Yue coming out of the kitchen with a glass of hot milk.
“Drink this and you can sleep better,” Si Yue said and handed the milk to Jian Ai.
Jian Ai was touched, but she said, “It hasn’t expired, right?”
She still could not forget that night when she drank the half-year-old milk Si Yue bought and fought with the toilet bowl for the entire night.
Si Yue: “…”
“I’m just joking.” Jian Ai chuckled and drank the milk in one go. It was a little hot, but it was delicious.
Si Yue went back and answered Jian Ai’s previous question seriously. “I just bought it today!”
Jian Ai held back her smile and nodded. “I’m just teasing you. You don’t have to be so serious.”
Si Yue: “…”
Without waiting for Si Yue to say anything, Jian Ai looked at the time. It was only half-past eight in the evening. However, she was already exhausted. With her sleepiness, she could sleep more. No matter what, she had to get up and report to the martial arts school tomorrow!
She waved her hand. “I’m going to sleep. I’ll go to the martial arts school tomorrow morning!”
