Chapter 504 - Chapter 504 Chapter 504 Zhou Family Investigates Qiao Yun

Chapter 504: Chapter 504 Zhou Family Investigates Qiao Yun Chapter 504: Chapter 504 Zhou Family Investigates Qiao Yun Su Qingyan wore an accustomed look on his face, letting Ye Miaoshan vent her anger as he turned and went back to his room.

He plugged in his earphones, blocking out Ye Miaoshan’s hysterical voice, and began to organize his documents.

Ye Miaoshan collapsed onto the sofa, her face showing utter helplessness.

Compared to her radiant appearance when she first came to Shangjing City, she now looked much more haggard.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and eventually, she contacted Mrs. Lin to question why she had told Su Fan about the matter.

“Mrs. Lin, I will definitely pay the money, but why did you still tell my husband?”

“Ah? I really didn’t know about this.”

Mrs. Lin’s voice carried a sincere surprise, “You know how many people there are in the Lin Family, it could have been someone who knew and spoke out. I’m very sorry.”

Hearing this, Ye Miaoshan couldn’t blame her any further.

After all, there were so many people present at the time; it would have been impossible to keep it a secret.

“How about this, to show my apologies, I will extend your repayment period by a few days, but interest will be needed. I can’t be the one to spoil the rules of our business, and I hope Mrs. Su can understand.”

Ye Miaoshan certainly didn’t have the money now, and upon hearing this, she immediately agreed, “I understand.”

Anyway, once she coaxed Su Fan back, forty million would solve everything.

She always believed that Su Fan was just acting in a fit of anger and wouldn’t truly abandon her.

It was Su Fan who had pursued her. Back then, there were several others courting her as well, and after much consideration, Su Fan was the most suitable. It took Su Fan years of pursuit before she was moved and agreed to date him.

In Ye Miaoshan’s eyes, Su Fan was desperately in love with her, which was why he always indulged her.

This was also the reason she dared to act so recklessly.

Even though Su Fan was currently giving her the cold shoulder, she wasn’t worried. What she feared was that Su Fan wouldn’t pay her the forty million.

After ending the call with Ye Miaoshan, Mrs. Lin couldn’t help but inquire with her husband, “What on earth did Mrs. Su do to anger others so much? Look at the mess she’s in now.”

“Who knows,” Mr. Lin analyzed. “Anyway, it’s not our loss. It’s a clear-cut deal, and we’ll make a clean forty million.”

“That’s true. Being able to help out Mr. Pei is beneficial for us as well.”

The couple shared a cunning smile in unison. In the world of business, there’s no room for sentimentality.

Ye Miaoshan thought Su Fan would return soon, but several days passed and he still ignored her.

She completely panicked, trying every trick in the book to win over Su Fan’s affection, but Su Fan simply ignored her, even going as far as to cancel her credit cards.

With the debt issue on her hands, she no longer had the time to bother Su Mian.

Qiao Yun was very pleased with this and even considerately gave Pei Ya a day off.

Pei Ya: I thank you for that.

What would become of the Su Family didn’t concern Qiao Yun at all, as long as they left her alone.

In the end, Ye Miaoshan had no choice but to contact Zhou Xinyu, agreeing to what they had discussed before.

“You lend me thirty million, and I’ll arrange a meeting with Qiao Yun, as well as help persuade her to agree to meet Qiao Xun.”

She didn’t want to do this.

But since Su Mian wouldn’t lend her the money, she could only turn her plans towards Qiao Yun.

“There’s no need to trouble Mrs. Su with this. This is a matter for the Zhou Family, and I can handle it on my own,” Zhou Xinyu rejected Ye Miaoshan.

“You don’t want to cure your grandmother anymore?”

“I have my own ways, which I need not share with Mrs. Su.”

With that, Zhou Xinyu hung up.

Looking at the disconnected call, Ye Miaoshan’s face was one of disbelief. Had her last lifeline vanished?

Whom could she turn to now?

After refusing Ye Miaoshan, Zhou Xinyu asked his secretary.

“How’s the person you arranged doing?”

“Everything is arranged, our people will be there 24 hours a day near the Qiaose Research Institute, and if they see Qiao Xun, they’ll notify me immediately.”

“Keep a close watch.”

“Yes.”

Zhou Xinyu’s eyes were filled with determination.

If he couldn’t arrange a meeting, then he’d have to take matters into his own hands.

He didn’t want to resort to such despicable tactics, but Qiao Xun had been avoiding him.

“How’s the investigation I asked you to do?”

“Young Master, we’ve found something.”

The secretary brought out a document and handed it to Zhou Xinyu.

“According to the information we’ve gathered, the Lu Family’s young miss did indeed grow up in the countryside after she went missing, and she didn’t have any contact with anyone related to the Qiao Family during that period. It wasn’t until last year that she returned to the Lu Family. There’s evidence that Qiao Xun helped during Lu Zhanxing’s car accident. The Lu Family probably came into contact with Qiao Xun then.”

The fact that Qiao Xun had saved Lu Zhanxing was not kept secret at the time due to the urgency, so anyone who wanted to investigate could still find out.

Zhou Xinyu had suspected that Qiao Yun was related to the Qiao Family, which was why he had someone investigate. Now that he knew there was no connection, his anxious heart settled down.

After all, how could a country girl be related to the Qiao Family?

Yet it was this same country girl who dared to reject him.

But why would Qiao Xun and Qiao Yun agree to have dinner alone?

Could it be…

He entertained a ridiculous notion, but when he thought of Qiao Yun’s beautiful face, it suddenly seemed possible.

If that was indeed the case… a sly smile crept up on Zhou Xinyu’s lips, and an idea formed in his mind.

…

On this particular day, during lunch break.

Qiao Yun saw Xia Ling fiddling with her phone secretly and couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Caught by Qiao Yun’s curious gaze, Xia Ling explained, “I’m watching Brother Lu’s live stream. Do you want to see it?”

Only then did Qiao Yun remember, because she had found things for Lu Zhanxing to do, he had indeed been quite busy recently.

She hadn’t seen Lu Zhanxing for two days.

With that thought, Qiao Yun also opened her phone to watch the live stream and noticed a tipping feature, so she casually sent some rockets.

“Damn!”

Xia Ling, who had been watching the live stream intently, suddenly exclaimed, “Who is this? So rich, three million! Someone actually tipped three million! I’m not worthy of being Brother Lu’s fan.”

Qiao Yun posed a soul-searching question, “Is three million a lot?”

She had no concept of money, but three million couldn’t do much, right?

“Not much?” Xia Ling’s face was one of utter disbelief, she didn’t understand the world of the wealthy.

Qiao Yun said unhurriedly, “Maybe they meant to tip ten million, but didn’t want to attract too much attention.”

“…” Xia Ling said gravely, “Actually, three million is already very attention-grabbing; ten million would go straight to trending searches.”

Qiao Yun furrowed her brows and silently lowered her hand that was ready to tip.

When school ended, Qiao Yun received a call from Qiao Xun.

“Qiaoqiao, it’s time to bring your brother for his checkup this weekend.”

After such a long period of recuperation, Lu Zhanxing had basically recovered. As long as the checkup was good, they could remove his stitches, and then he could focus on rehabilitation.

If things went quickly, he could be walking freely before the New Year.

Normally, Lu Zhanxing wouldn’t have recovered so swiftly, but who could account for the fact that he was a subject of the New Life project and naturally different from ordinary people?

Lu Zhanxing had also noticed something unusual about himself.
