Chapter 174 Unspeakable
The little girl was taken to the reception room downstairs by Gan Hongjun.

It was already night, and there were only a few outsiders in the reception room. The rest were basically the branch's hired staff and alchemists.

"Wow, what a pretty girl! Receptionist, where did you kidnap her from?"

Gan Hongjun glared at the person who spoke and said unhappily:

"Shut your stinky mouth! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb!"

After saying this, Gan Hongjun asked the little girl to sit down on a bench in the room, and smiled on his honest and broad face, saying:
"Don't be nervous. You may sit for a while until your mother and Vice President Yan have finished their discussion. Then, they will come down and take you home."

Hearing this, the little girl nodded slightly and smiled politely at Gan Hongjun.

The smile was innocent and sweet, and it touched Gan Hongjun's heart!

He was stunned for a moment and thought, why doesn't he have such a well-behaved, delicate and lovely daughter in his family?

"Hmm? Isn't that the little girl who was stopped outside by the guard just now? Where's her mother? I remember seeing a mother and daughter outside just now."

"Haha, you mean her mother? Didn't you hear what Lao Gan said just now? They are here to look for Vice President Yan. That woman should be in Vice President Yan's room right now..."

"But something seems a little wrong. Just now the mother and daughter went up together, but now only the little girl was brought down by Lao Gan?"

"what do you mean?"

"That woman is quite pretty. I think our Vice President Yan was probably chatting about something, ahem... you know what I mean, right? He sent the girl down."

"Ah? No way?! I heard that woman is the stepmother of his student. Besides, can Vice President Yan be such a person?"

"You don't understand this, do you? It's because that woman is the stepmother of Vice President Yan's student. That's why it's so powerful! You don't know that those big shots like to play like this behind the scenes... The private lives of some big forces and families are so messy that you can't imagine..."

"Hiss~, is this true?!"

"How could it be false? Listen to me..."

Snapped!
Snapped!
"Ouch~"

After the two palms made close contact with the back of the head, two ordinary reception staff members of the branch who were huddled in the corner and chewing their tongues excitedly suddenly cried out in pain.

The two of them covered the back of their heads, turned around and looked back, and caught a glimpse of Gan Hongjun standing behind them with a gloomy face. At this moment, their faces changed color instantly.

“Lao…Lao Gan?!”

“Haha, I’ve told you so many times, in the branch, call me the receptionist!
So, have you two become so capable? You dare to talk about the alchemists behind their backs? Moreover, you are talking about Vice President Yan! Do you still want to eat the meal of the branch reception? If not, get out as soon as possible! "

Gan Hongjun withdrew his hand, put it behind his back, and sneered.

Hearing this, the two turned pale, their lips trembled in front of Gan Hongjun, and they hurriedly said:
"Director Gan, please forgive us this time, but next time... we won't dare to do it again... No, no, no, there won't be a next time!"

Seeing the two people talking incoherently, Gan Hongjun snorted coldly and turned to leave this corner. But when the two were about to feel relieved, he slowly said:

"If I see something like this again, you two will just get out of here!"

Just say it.

The two of them were standing there, looking at Gan Hongjun's back, with cold sweat running down their cheeks.

They both knew that Gan Hongjun had taken good care of them. If someone else found out that they were criticizing the alchemist of the branch and the matter got out, not only would they lose their reception job, but they would also be punished to the point of death!
……

On the second floor, in Yan Yong’s room with the door open.

"Madam Sun, tell me, why did you come to the branch to see me so late at night?"

At the position, Yan Yong went straight to the point.

Across from her, Aunt Sun heard the indifferent tone in Yan Yong's words. She silently took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of both eyes one by one. Her expression became depressed and she said:
"Since Xi'er's father passed away, Xi'er has returned home less and less frequently in the past few years... She has been traveling outside for the past year and has not come back. Only Xiaowen and I are left at home. No one helps us with any of our affairs, and we are ignored by the clan members..."

The more Yan Yong listened, the more he felt something was wrong, so he interrupted him.

"Xi'er is not at home, and the Liu family treats you and your daughter very harshly?!"

As soon as these words came out, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Aunt Sun's face. Under Yan Yong's gaze, she hesitated for a while and said:

"That... is not the case. But recently, more and more members of the Liu family have been looking down on me. There is no man in my family. I am an ordinary woman who has never embarked on the path of cultivation. I can't stand up when things happen. I will inevitably suffer losses. It is really a struggle for me to protect my daughter Xiaowen and live in the family..."

After these words, Yan Yong could naturally feel that the stepmother of his student had been avoiding the topic and had never mentioned the main point of why she came to see him today.

"Madam Sun, forgive me for being blunt. If you have any unfair treatment in the Liu family, you should seek help from the head of the Liu family. Although I am Xi'er's teacher, I am not a member of the Liu family. Your situation is an internal matter of the Liu family. I can't help you!"

His eyelids half drooped as he spoke sincerely.

In fact, from the time he met Aunt Sun tonight until now, he has already guessed what she is thinking.

Although he did not directly state his purpose in his words, his words clearly indicated that "his life in the Liu family was very hard"!
However, the facts are obviously inconsistent with what he said. Judging from the clothes of the mother and daughter, as well as their spirits and energy, they are both in good condition. If they were really having a hard time in the Liu family, it would definitely not be like this!

But then again, if we continue to understand it along the lines of "his life in the Liu family was very hard", doesn't he mean to say that he is now "unhappy" in the Liu family and wants to leave the family?

If this is the case, then it is no wonder that it is always difficult for him to speak in front of him...

When your late husband's family has not been harsh on you at all, you cannot bear the loneliness and want to leave and live your own life. If this behavior gets out, it will not be good.

"Mr. Yan, now that things have come to this, I will tell you the truth. My husband has been dead for several years. I am the second wife. I am still young. I really don't want to stay in the Liu family for the rest of my life...

I have talked about this with the head of the Liu family some time ago. He told me that as long as Xier agrees, he doesn't have too many objections, and the Liu family will not stop it. But you also know that Xier has always had some opinions about me, and his temper is a bit extreme. If I write to ask Xier for his opinion on this matter, I'm afraid it won't be ideal.

However, Xier has always been extremely respectful to you, sir. He listens to your words to some extent. If you were to relay this matter, the result would be different. Therefore, I came to bother you today, sir, to ask you to do this."

Forced by Yan Yong's perfunctory attitude, Aunt Sun finally made her intention clear and spoke sincerely.
