Chapter 101 How Handsome is Xie Yunxi?
The top-ranking guy lives next door to the lady?

Jiang Rong, who was still considering whether to give Yan Changye a hint, immediately had a very complicated feeling!
Given Yan Changye's extreme possessiveness, if he found out that a rival had moved in next door, wouldn't he cause a huge uproar?

"Madam, it's best not to keep this from Chairman Yan..." Jiang Rong kindly advised.

Jiang Manman looked at him and said, "Don't overthink it. I know what I'm doing."

That night, Jiang Manman's bodyguard carried three clean thermos cups from No. 1 Mansion and knocked on the door of Villa No. 2.

The bodyguard at Villa No. 2 opened the door: "Would you like to come in and have a seat?"

"No, thank you. Madam asked me to tell the young masters that the soup and juice were delicious, but there's no need to send any more. Villa No. 1 has plenty of those." Jiang Manman's bodyguard handed over the thermos. "She also said that she really had nowhere to vent her enthusiasm, so she was waiting for Chairman Yan to come back so that they could organize a gathering and have everyone sit down together."

The bodyguard at Villa No. 2 gave a curt "Oh, I see."

The bodyguard at Villa No. 1 took two steps back: "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."

"There's one more small matter," the bodyguard at Villa No. 2 tactfully reminded him, "When the young masters 'change shifts' in the early morning, could you also keep an eye on things in case of any emergencies?"

The bodyguard at Villa No. 1 nodded: "It's my job, don't worry."

Inside Villa No. 1, Jiang Manman was having dinner with Xie Jian.

The little guy ate heartily, his face rosy. Seeing that he even ate a few vegetables, Jiang Manman couldn't help but ask, "Where did you go during the day? Why are you so hungry?"

"I played in the ball pit, played in the sand, and even played on the trampoline!" Xie Jian's nose was covered in sweat. "Daddy used to say that the more you exercise, the more you eat, and the more you eat, the more handsome you'll be like him. I exercised a lot today!"

"As handsome as him?" Jiang Manman chuckled. "Is your daddy handsome?"

"Super, super handsome!" Xie Jian's eyes sparkled. "The most handsome man in Hong Kong! The most handsome man in the capital!"

"He's that handsome?" Jiang Manman asked incredulously. "Do you have a photo?"

Xie Jian thought for a moment, then slowly took out his phone, opened the photo album, and then hesitantly pushed it in front of her.

Jiang Manman glanced at it casually; it was a photo of Yan Changye in his bathrobe.

Unlike his flirtatious and promiscuous demeanor in front of Jiang Manman, Xie Jian's bathrobe photo on his phone was well-covered up, and his eyes were gentle and refined. He didn't have any flirtatious air; instead, he had a virtuous and domestic air about him.

She paused for a moment, then casually flipped through the previous pages. Several of them were of Yan Changye, either solo photos of him or photos of him with Xie Jian.

"I want to see your daddy, and you're showing me Yan Changye?" Jiang Manman didn't continue scrolling through more photos, after all, the phone's photo album also involved a lot of personal privacy.

Xie Jian smiled with his eyes half-closed, refusing to answer, and silently lowered his head to gnaw on the meat patty as if being a spoiled child.

"Never mind, it's not like I absolutely have to see it."

Jiang Manman chuckled, picked up a crab meat ball for him, and asked something else: "Won't you get bored going out alone during the day?"

"A little." Xie Jian blinked. "Not as familiar as Hong Kong, but there's Manman here. I read Manman when I'm bored."

"What's so interesting about me?" Jiang Manman pondered. "I'll find you a playmate tomorrow night."

Xie Jian asked curiously, "Who is it?"

“My younger brother, Jiang Che. You can call him—”

Before Xie Jian could even utter the words "Uncle Jiang Che," he exclaimed, "Oh! Uncle!"

Jiang Manman thought for a moment and said, "Calling him uncle is fine too."

It was the middle of the night. A rustling sound came from beside Jiang Manman. She patted Xie Jian's head, somewhat helplessly, "Going to pee again?"

“That’s right.” Xie Jian blinked. “Manman, don’t come down here. I’ll be back soon. And don’t turn on the lights, they’re too bright and uncomfortable.”

"So many things to do." Jiang Manman sighed softly, with a hint of indulgence. "Walk slowly, don't go to the wrong place tonight."

Xie Jian, with her short legs, pattered downstairs in her little slippers.

The sound of him going upstairs was much more steady, his steps were very light, and even a little elegant.

The little child covered his entire head with the large hood and went to bed without making a sound.

Jiang Manman covered him with the blanket, and looking at the child whose head was almost tucked under the blanket, she couldn't help but say, "The air in the blanket is not good, thank you, stick your head out."

The child nudged his head out a little, but refused to peek any further.

In the darkness, Jiang Manman gently pinched the child's soft little face and hugged him close.

The Liu family of the capital.

Although the Liu family is at the bottom of the elite families, their ability to be among the top families in the capital city shows that their strength should not be underestimated.

The young masters of the Liu family were playing cards together.

The assistant reported to Liu Ershao, "Second Young Master, after leaving the Ning family, the young mistress went to the hospital, and then to the Blue Ocean Club and the Global Hotel."

"With a face covered in bruises, she still has the mood to play?" Liu sneered.

Young Master Liu glanced at his younger brother: "You too, it's one thing to play around with women, but why did you hit Ning Xinyue? Ning Musheng came to make trouble at our door during the day, and Dad had to pay us a villa as compensation with a dark face."

“Just a plaything. Boring in bed, and she always interferes with my good time with other women. It’s extremely disgusting. I don’t know what Yan Changye saw in her back then.” Liu Zhi threw down a card and sneered, “If it weren’t to please Yan Changye, why would I have married such a thing?”

“You’ve already married her, so you should tone it down a bit,” Young Master Liu said. “The Ning family is one of the most prestigious families, and if things get out of hand, it won’t look good for anyone.”

"Brother, why do you think Yan Changye would push her to me?" Liu Zhi scoffed. "Although I don't know how she offended Yan Changye, it must have been extremely serious. If I were to restrain myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to satisfy Yan Changye."

"No way, there's such a juicy story?" Liu Sanshao exclaimed in surprise. "Yan Changye is now known in the industry as a fiercely protective husband. I almost forgot about the rumors that he and Ning Xinyue had a past..."

"Don't mention it." Liu Zhi glared at him. "That notorious womanizer of a prince is now very virtuous. If any dirty rumors were to spread from us, given his vengeful nature, the Liu family would be doomed."

The atmosphere momentarily froze.

Liu Zhi turned to his assistant: "Ning Xinyue is not a well-behaved person. What did she do at those places today?"

The assistant answered one by one: "I mainly went to the hospital's finance department, then went to the surgery department to treat my injuries, and finally went to the obstetrics and gynecology department for an inspection; after leaving the hospital, I met up with a few socialites from the capital at the Blue Ocean Club, got drunk, and then went to the Universal Hotel together."

Liu Zhi seemed to be deep in thought.

Liu Sanshao thought for a moment and said, "Isn't this quite normal?"

"She got beaten up, and instead of coming back to me crying and making a scene, she's in the mood for entertainment. What's normal about that?" Liu Zhi said, biting a cigarette. "Keep a close eye on her. Tell me as much as possible about who she's met, what she's said, and what she's done."

After saying that, he looked at Young Master Liu and said, "Keep those sensitive things safe."

"Don't worry, she's just a woman, she won't cause much of a commotion." Young Master Liu smiled dismissively.
