Chapter 831: Chapter 830 He Had No Malice

"Xiao Hua, that Third Young Master Yan, he came specifically to see you, didn’t he?"

Uncle Ming, of course, wouldn’t believe Yan Bo’s "supposed to meet a friend but the friend didn’t show up" speech. Now seeing Tong Xiaohua getting into the car, he straightforwardly expressed his thoughts.

Tong Xiaohua bowed her head, seemingly searching for something in her bag, and casually responded to him.

"Who knows? He took a liking to the Chess and Card Club’s decor and layout, and asked me to introduce him to the designer. It was just something my mom messed around with."

Tong Xiaohua of course knew that Yan Bo hadn’t really made an appointment with someone, and she also knew that Yan Bo’s visit here was deliberate and planned.

In other words, he had known her whereabouts in advance, which was why he "coincidentally" bumped into her.

"Uncle Ming, let’s make our outings a bit more flexible in the future."

Once Uncle Ming heard this, he instantly understood what she meant.

"Alright, I will also pay more attention to the staffing arrangements around us from now on."

Normally, for someone with the identity of Tong Xiaohua, it was extremely dangerous if her movements were known so clearly by others.

"Mmm, thank you for the trouble, Uncle Ming."

It seemed that Yan Bo was indeed a formidable person, having grasped her movements clearly within just a few days.

This included her upcoming school attendance and her fixed schedule over the past few days.

"Xiao Hua, do you need me to talk to Third Young Master Yan?"

Uncle Ming’s so-called talk had two methods.

One was the civilized method, which was indeed talking.

The other was an unconventional method. As for what it involved, it was undetermined, but it certainly wasn’t negotiation by mere talking.

Tong Xiaohua pondered for a moment, "Forget it, there’s no need. He didn’t have any ill intentions. If there’s a next time, I’ll speak to him directly."

In Tong Xiaohua’s mind, although Yan Bo was tall and strong, his demeanor was gentle and aristocratic, filled with the air of a noble young master. What if her uncles and brothers frightened him?

Uncle Ming gave her a thoughtful look, "Alright then, if you need to talk to him, just let me know."

The two of them ended their conversation about Yan Bo there, and quickly shifted to talk about work.

"Is everything arranged for the maintenance of the equipment at the massage parlor?"

"It’s all arranged, and I will be in charge of the follow-up. You focus on the accounting for the next few days."

Meanwhile, back in the clubhouse, Yan Bo, after filling in his data and paying the fee by card, shook hands with Manager Zhu and said goodbye.

Manager Zhu walked him all the way to the door and watched as he got into the car before turning back to the front desk.

"Miss, Third Young Master Yan registered for ten annual memberships, and I gave him the eight percent discount you instructed."

Tong Xiaohua in the car was startled, thinking she had misheard.

"What did you say? He registered for ten annual memberships?"

"Yes, according to him, all these people are his subordinates; they work too hard and need proper fitness and relaxation time."

Manager Zhu repeated Yan Bo’s words exactly, and couldn’t help displaying her joy when doing so.

Normally, people come to the clubhouse for one-time services. Occasionally, there are regular customers who get monthly memberships, but annual memberships are not common because they are not cheap.

No wonder Manager Zhu was overjoyed now that Yan Bo had registered for ten annual memberships all at once.

"Mmm, okay, make sure you take good care of him in the future!"

Nobody would turn away from money, and since he wanted to register, Tong Xiaohua of course wouldn’t call Yan Bo to cancel the membership out of pretense; she only hoped that the facilities and services of the clubhouse would satisfy him and his staff.

After she hung up the phone, Uncle Ming who was sitting next to her stared at her and asked, "What? The third young master of the Yan family got ten annual memberships?"

Uncle Ming appeared to be deep in thought. When the third young master of the Yan family first arrived, everyone thought he was just using his father’s influence to make money in this remote and less developed city.

Moreover, before this, there wasn’t much buzz about this third young master in the business world.

Little did they know, just over a month later, he not only efficiently set up the Yanhuang Real Estate Company but also bought up the land between L City and S City. After that, some people said he was foolish to buy such a remote piece of land, but Uncle Ming saw ambition in the third young master from this move.

"Hmm, pretty generous to his subordinates."

Tong Xiaohua gave such a comment and didn’t say much else.

But Uncle Ming already had plans in mind. It seemed that even if he didn’t talk to the third young master directly, someone needed to find out if, besides being the third son of the old Yan family from the Capital City, he had any other significant background.

A young man, only twenty years old, who behaves in business as maturely as a battle-hardened general—that’s somewhat peculiar.

Uncle Ming pondered in secret for a good while and when he lifted his eyes, he realized the scenery outside the window was not the way to the Tong family’s home.

"We’re not going home for dinner today?" It was only then that Uncle Ming remembered the address she had just given the driver didn’t seem like Tong village.

"Yes, I want to eat at a farmer restaurant. Join me, Uncle Ming."

The farmer restaurant that Tong Xiaohua and Uncle Ming went to was where she often dined with her parents. She and her mother both liked the quiet environment there, where they could eat while watching the banana trees and the lotus pond not far from the window.

However, with only Uncle Ming accompanying her, it seemed like something was missing, and even the usually particularly sweet-tasting vegetables grown by the farmers felt tasteless in her mouth.

She thought again about the dinner invitation from Yan Bo. Indeed, just like him, eating a meal felt strangely quiet.

"Xiao Hua... Xiao Hua!"

Uncle Ming had called her several times, but she was leaning on her hand, looking out the window, deeply lost in thought.

Xiao Hua was jolted out of her reverie by his voice, turning her head to look at Uncle Ming with a puzzled expression.

"Huh?!"

"I said, you need to register at school tomorrow. Are you going yourself, or should I find someone to help you with the registration so you can go there when classes start?"

Tong Xiaohua was a bit dazed. Was it time to start school already?

She was still hesitant and hadn’t made up her mind about whether she wanted to go to school.

As she had told her father, she truly felt it was unnecessary for her to attend school.

The things she was doing now, where would a student be expected to do such things?

Thinking about how different she was from others, Tong Xiaohua felt somewhat disheartened, or perhaps, dispirited.

Since she was young, apart from the people in Tong village, she never really had friends at school.

Even those who initially got along well with her would distance themselves after they got to know her better, probably after finding out about her identity. All those former good friends and classmates invariably started staying away from her.

Her temper, which was quite volatile, was largely because she had no one to share her many thoughts and troubles with.

As for whether or not this was actually the case, she had never examined it closely. Anyway, she had always thought this way.

Seeing her silent, Uncle Ming guessed that she was thinking of backing out again.

"Forget it, you’ve been busy these past few days. Rest well at home tomorrow. I’ll have someone handle the registration."

Tong Xiaohua nodded her head, indicating her agreement.

She didn’t care about the registration fee, and Uncle Ming would certainly prefer to get her registered to explain the situation to her father.

Whether she wanted to go or not, she could decide slowly, but she didn’t want to make things difficult for Uncle Ming.
