The Xinyuan District was previously developed by Jianjun's company, and the current property management company is also under Jianjun's company, so this place is essentially Jianjun's territory.
Jianjun was very displeased to see Ye Xiao acting so arrogantly on his own turf. If it weren't for the face of Hengyu Group, Jianjun would definitely not have let Ye Xiao off so easily. At least, that's what Jianjun believed!
"I'm heading back!" Jianjun said to Xuewei, huffing with irritation, then turned to the property manager and ordered, "Get me a car, I'm going to the company!"
Upon hearing Jianjun's words, the property manager immediately hurried to find a car. However, Xuewei turned to Jianjun and said, "Dad, although I don't know what Ye Xiao's identity is, he has an extraordinary relationship with the boss's daughter of Hengyu Group, Ling Shuya. Moreover, it's very likely that he will become Hengyu's future son-in-law. Making an enemy of him isn't good for our business in Minghai City!"
Hearing Xuewei's words, Jianjun's anger subsided by half. Hengyu Group was a leading enterprise in Minghai City, with involvement in various industries, all thriving. More importantly, Hengyu Group was a privately held company. The exact wealth of Hengyu Group was known to very few!
Thus, most of the private enterprises in Minghai City had more or less cooperative relationships with Hengyu Group. Jianjun's company was collaborating on several major projects with Hengyu Group, so Jianjun would never dare to offend Ling Hengyu. Although Jianjun was known for his temper and was a talented businessman, his temper had offended many. Now, there were only a handful of people in Minghai City willing to work with Jianjun, and Hengyu was absolutely the most important.
Therefore, under no circumstances could Jianjun provoke anyone from Hengyu Group!
Jianjun watched Ye Xiao walking away, his heart filled with irritation, but he was powerless to say anything. If Ye Xiao truly became Hengyu's chosen son-in-law, in the future, he might even have to butter up to Ye Xiao. Thinking of this made Jianjun even more dissatisfied!
"I don't feel like going today. Ye Xiao is probably here to visit your aunt as well," Jianjun said.
"Dad, I think you should go. And you should also try to ease the relationship with Ye Xiao. Although he speaks arrogantly, I can sense a kind of quality in him that isn't found in ordinary people. I can't quite put my finger on it, but my intuition tells me that being friends with Ye Xiao is far better than being enemies," Xuewei advised.
Jianjun hesitated for a moment then finally nodded, saying, "Alright, I'll listen to you."
Xuewei immediately smiled and said, "There, there, don't be angry. After all, he's just a young man, and you should be magnanimous."
Just then, the property manager came running up to Jianjun with a grin, asking, "Chairman, the car is ready. Shall we go now?"
"Go your head! Notify the company to tow these two cars away and have them repaired at the service shop as quickly as possible!" Jianjun snorted and walked toward the Xinyuan District with Xuewei.
The property manager stood there, somewhat stunned. Who had he offended that Jianjun was taking it out on him?
Back to Ye Xiao. After entering the Xinyuan District, following Lin Dieying's instructions, he quickly arrived at a modest multi-story building. Lin Dieying's home was situated on the ground floor, eastern unit, so he swiftly reached Lin Dieying's doorstep and knocked on the door.
"Coming!" The voice of Lin Dieying came from inside, and soon, the door opened.
Lin Dieying, seeing Ye Xiao at the door, was slightly startled, then her face brightened with joy as she said, "You really came!"
"Of course, I did. You've lost some weight these past few days!" Ye Xiao said with concern.
Lin Dieying's cheeks turned slightly red as she ushered Ye Xiao in, saying, "Come on in!"
Ye Xiao entered and noticed that the apartment, though not large, was neatly organized, clearly tended to by a very meticulous person. Unquestionably, this person must be Li Yinge.
As Lin Dieying watched Ye Xiao enter, she went to close the door; however, Ye Xiao said, "Don't close it just yet; your cousin and her dad will be here soon."
Lin Dieying, slightly taken aback, said, "You mean my uncle? Xuewei's dad?"
"Yes," Ye Xiao replied with a smile, "and where's Aunt Li?"
Without closing the door, Lin Dieying led Ye Xiao to Li Yinge's room.
By then, Li Yinge had been informed of Ye Xiao's arrival. Therefore, she wasn't resting, especially since she had undergone surgery just a few days ago and was now recuperating in bed at home.
"Aunt Li, how are you feeling?" Ye Xiao walked into the room, smiling at Li Yinge.
Li Yinge had a rather favorable impression of Ye Xiao; after all, in her eyes, he was just Lin Dieying's classmate, and it was already extraordinary for a classmate to visit repeatedly.
"Sorry, Aunt Li, I came in a hurry, so I didn't bring a gift. I hope you don't mind," Ye Xiao said as he sat down beside Li Yinge's bed, speaking with the same affection as a son.
"There's no need for such formalities," replied Li Yinge, "You're already taking the effort to come here. Bringing something would be too much. Dieying, get Ye Xiao some fruit."
"Right away!" Lin Dieying glanced at Ye Xiao with a smile, then headed out.
"Aunt Li, you really shouldn't be discharged from the hospital yet. After surgery, you should rest there for at least a week," Ye Xiao said to Li Yinge.
Li Yinge said, "It's nothing serious, it's inconvenient in the hospital, and it's better to be at home!"
Although Li Yinge said this, Ye Xiao knew that the reason they hadn't stayed in the hospital was because of money. If it had been three years ago, Li Yinge would probably have stayed in a luxurious hospital room for a month, but now life itself was a struggle; what could they afford for hospital stays?
"Auntie, I know this is all because of financial difficulties. If it had been three or four years ago, you definitely wouldn't have put yourself through this!" Ye Xiao said to Li Yinge.
When Li Yinge heard what Ye Xiao said, she was clearly taken aback. She looked at Ye Xiao with a suspicious gaze and asked, "How do you know about what happened three or four years ago?"
"Auntie, don't be nervous. You should know I mean no harm. I just want to tell you, I'll help Die Ying avenge her father's injustice. Whatever belongs to you and Die Ying, I'll help you take it back!"
Li Yinge was even more puzzled. Now she knew Ye Xiao must know something about Lin Yaoguang's affairs, and so she asked even more suspiciously, "Why?"
Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Just think of me as having nothing better to do!"
"Because of Die Ying?" Li Yinge was also smart, and she immediately spoke up!
"That's right, because of Die Ying." Ye Xiao confirmed.
Li Yinge said, "I hope Die Ying can finish university peacefully. I don't want her to fall into early romance!"
Ye Xiao nodded with a smile and reassured Li Yinge, "I understand, Auntie, you don't need to worry. What you fear won't happen. I just consider Die Ying a friend."
Just then, the voices of Han Jianjun, Han Xuewei, and Lin Dieying came from the living room!
Li Yinge looked at Ye Xiao, thought for a moment, and finally said, "I believe you."
Ye Xiao flashed a slight smile at Li Yinge. Li Yinge was actually a very beautiful woman, but time ages everyone. Even so, compared to her peers, Li Yinge was still stunning, or how else could she have given birth to a beauty like Lin Dieying?
Soon after, Han Jianjun and Han Xuewei entered Li Yinge's room.
"Second sister, I'm truly sorry. I've been away on a business trip for the past few days, and Xuewei didn't tell me about this at all. How are you now?" As Han Jianjun entered the room and saw Li Yinge's somewhat pale face, he immediately expressed his concern.
Li Yinge said, "Jianjun brother, I'm sorry to worry you, I'm fine!"
Han Jianjun replied, "What are you talking about? But how come you've been discharged from the hospital already? It hasn't been long since your surgery, has it? I'll make a call, and we can still stay in the hospital!"
"No need, I'm recovering well and it's fine to be at home!" Li Yinge said somewhat wearily.
Han Xuewei went to Li Yinge's side and told her, "Second aunt, if you need any help, just have Die Ying tell us. We are the closest of kin!"
Li Yinge, smiling, took hold of Han Xuewei's hand and said, "There's really nothing wrong!"
As Li Yinge spoke, the weariness on her face grew even more evident.
Standing to the side, Ye Xiao spoke up, "Aunt Li is still recovering. She really needs to rest more."
Although neither Han Jianjun nor Han Xuewei was pleased with Ye Xiao's remark, they didn't dare to object since the patient was right there; one wrong word could look very bad.
Han Jianjun suggested, "Let's go outside and sit for a while, let Die Ying's mom get some rest."
So, Lin Dieying brought some fruit plates into the living room, and everyone sat down.
"Ye Xiao, the car has been sent to the repair shop and should be fixed soon. You don't need to worry!" Han Xuewei said to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao shrugged indifferently, "It doesn't matter whether it's fixed or not; as long as the expenses are covered!"
"Ye Xiao, I'm giving you face; don't neglect it. Besides, I'm also representing Hengyu Group's dignity here!" Han Jianjun had disliked Ye Xiao from the start and now that Ye Xiao was not showing respect, Jianjun immediately got heated.
Ye Xiao leaned back on the sofa, a smile on his face, but he remained silent, just looking at Han Jianjun.
Lin Dieying, listening to their conversation, was very confused. Looking from one to another, she finally voiced her doubts, "What's going on here?"
Han Xuewei then explained the situation to Lin Dieying. After hearing it, Die Ying quickly turned to Ye Xiao and said, "Ye Xiao, let's just let this go, the car can surely be fixed!"
Ye Xiao spoke up, "Die Ying, I really dislike it when my friends take someone else's side. Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Hearing this, Lin Dieying immediately clamped her mouth shut and sat quietly next to Ye Xiao without making a sound.
