2241 I Thought It Was Qiao Nian's 'Friends'



Qiao Nian ignored Ye Lan's messages after she found a teacher for Ye Qichen.

She got up and went to take a shower.

The next day.

Mother Xie came looking for her.

Ye Wangchuan lived in a villa area. Few outsiders came in.

She did not know how Mother Xie found out about this place.

Gu San saw a black private car parked outside the villa. Soon, Mother Xie got out of the car with the chauffeur.

Having taken good care of herself and was wearing a black velvet dress with a brown shawl around her shoulders, her long hair elegantly tied behind her ears, she looked like she had been raised well.

She walked over gracefully and, upon seeing Gu San, immediately asked politely, "May I ask if Miss Qiao lives here?"

Gu San sized her up with a frown. "Who are you looking for?"

Mother Xie suppressed her displeasure and combed her hair, then smiled and said, "I'm looking for Qiao Nian. Is Miss Qiao here?"

"Oh, looking for Miss Qiao." Gu San had always known that Qiao Nian had many "friends" he did not know.

Although he did not know Mother Xie's identity, he subconsciously classified her as one of Qiao Nian's 'friends'.

Hence, he was quite respectful to Mother Xie and invited her into the villa to wait.

"Please come in first."

At first, Mother Xie was afraid that she would not be able to enter. She did not expect things to progress so smoothly. She followed Gu San into the villa.

Gu San arranged for her to sit on the sofa in the living room and poured her a cup of coffee. Then, he said politely, "Please wait. I'll call Miss Qiao."

"Sorry to trouble you." Mother Xie picked up the cup and lowered her head to take a sip of coffee. Composed, she began to size up the villa's environment.

Qin Si was the first to hear the commotion and come out of his room.

The moment he came out, he saw a stranger sitting outside.

She looked to be in her forties or fifties with a good temperament. One look and he could tell that she was not an ordinary person.

He scratched his head, wondering who this person was.

Ye Wangchuan happened to come out of the study at this moment.

"Hey, Master Wang, who's the person sitting outside?" Qin Si immediately grabbed him and asked.

Ye Wangchuan had just finished a video conference with Mo Dong and was having a headache. His eyes were filled with impatience as he replied lazily, "Mm?"

Qin Si gestured for him to look outside. "That woman sitting on the sofa. Who is she? I've never seen her before."

Previously, Ye Wangchuan had been the one to negotiate with the Xie family. Gu San and Qin Si had indeed never seen Mother Xie in person.

It was normal not to know Mother Xie.

However, Ye Wangchuan knew her.

He looked over and saw Madam Xie sitting in the living room of the villa, looking around. His eyes turned cold. He did not expect her to dare to come looking for him.

Qin Si asked again.

He said coldly, "Someone from the Xie family."

"Someone from the Xie family?" Qin Si immediately looked like he had eaten a fly. Extremely disgusted, he looked at Mother Xie and asked in a bad tone, "What is she doing here?"

Who was Ye Wangchuan? He could tell at a glance what Mother Xie was up to. He sneered. "Plead for mercy."

Qin Si was still thinking about what he meant when Ye Wangchuan strode forward.

Mother Xie was originally waiting for Qiao Nian to come down, but she was getting impatient. She kept looking at the time on her watch and frowning, suppressing her dissatisfaction.
