Chapter 230 Private Airport Clash
In the following days, Yan Yu and Xie Jian stayed at Jiangyue Mansion all day, and Yan Changye did not go to see them again.

He spent a few days enjoying himself with his beloved wife, eating, drinking, and having fun. During this time, he encountered Miss Murong once.

At that time, a high-end jewelry brand under the Xie family conglomerate held a private banquet for its members, and Miss Murong was also at the banquet.

While Yan Changye was entertaining clients, Miss Murong came to Jiang Manman's side, raised her glass to clink with hers, and pointed with great emotion towards Yan Changye:
"After Xie Jian's birthday party last time, I didn't hear from you for a long time. When I went online to gossip, it was mostly about that rich young master from the Beijing circle showing off his love. I thought you had returned to the right path and broken up with Xie Yunxi."

Jiang Manman felt a little guilty: "I didn't score."

"It's not just that you haven't broken up, I think you two are getting more and more clingy." Miss Murong lifted Jiang Manman's finger and exclaimed, "I didn't notice last time, but you and Xie Yunxi were openly wearing couple rings, and on your ring fingers no less. That's really bold."

Jiang Manman: "..."

These wedding rings were custom-made after Jiang Manman and Yan Changye registered their marriage in the capital. The first letters of their names were engraved inside. Jiang Manman didn't think much of it, but Yan Changye really cherished them for a long time and never took them off on any important occasion over the years.

Just as Jiang Manman was thinking about how to explain, Miss Murong received a text message. When she looked up at Jiang Manman again, the disbelief in her eyes was even more intense.

"Jiang Manman." Her elegance and composure vanished completely as she couldn't help but grab Jiang Manman's hand, humbly seeking advice, "How exactly do you manage to control men?"

Jiang Manman was stunned: "What now?"

"I just received a short video from my dad's assistant." Murong Xin's expression was complicated as she opened the photo. "My dad and the others are with Xie Yuheng at a financial industry networking event. Look, what is Xie Yuheng doing?"

Jiang Manman looked up and glanced at her.

The high-definition video shows a huge business conference room.

A large group of wealthy family heads and financial tycoons gathered together, discussing something in a serious manner. Xie Yuheng sat in the main seat, his expression indifferent, exuding an imposing aura. In contrast, Yan Yu and Xie Jian sat on either side of his lap, while the aloof and detached man gently held the children in his arms, occasionally whispering something to them. When he looked down at the children, his imposing presence vanished completely, even replaced by a hint of doting smile.

The video is only a few seconds long.

Clearly, the photographer didn't dare to take too many pictures.

Jiang Manman looked away and remained silent.

"While the young master of the Beijing elite is left alone in the capital, you're out fooling around with your lover Xie Yunxi in Hong Kong, and your ex-lover is helping with logistics and taking care of the child..." Miss Murong was speechless. "Let's not even talk about whether the child is yours or not. Your ability to play both sides is something I've never seen before in my life."

Jiang Manman: "It's not that exaggerated."

Murong Xin watched the video again: "To be honest, Xie Yuheng's appearance and demeanor are truly amazing. Since you're already giving up, and you can mess around with Xie Yunxi, why not just take Xie Yuheng in as well? He's two years younger than his nephew Xie Yunxi, and lately he's been looking very youthful. He must be quite a character to enjoy."

Jiang Manman took two steps back: "Miss Murong, please watch your words. Xie Yunxi is very jealous, and it would be bad if he set his sights on you."

“He was already very dissatisfied with me.” Miss Murong said with deep feeling, “Putting aside everything else, his jealousy is really strong, and his words are like poison, very venomous.”

After saying that, he thought of something else: "I heard that person in the Beijing circle is also jealous and sharp-tongued. I wonder if I'll have a chance to see them fight each other..."

Jiang Manman watched Yan Changye walking towards her without saying a word.

"What are you talking about?" Yan Changye gave Murong Xin a rather unfriendly look. "Backstabbing me in front of my wife again?"

Murong Xin said "Oh": "I just want to know, is the one you keep outside just as domineering in front of the main wife?"

Yan Changye raised an eyebrow and looked at her: "The Yanjing Group's annual meeting will be held on the Zhuyehao at the end of the year. I will be in the same frame as Yan Changye. I will send you an invitation then."

After saying that, he ignored her and put his arm around Jiang Manman: "Something came up at home, we're going back now."

In the car, Yan Changye got down to business:

"Xie Yuheng plans to use the projects in the capital and the Chen family to have several financial experts provide immersive education for the children. If we agree, Xie and the others will be arranged to return to the capital this afternoon."

Jiang Manman sensed something was off about his tone: "You don't want to?"

“Normally he’s fine, but lately Xie Yuheng…” Yan Changye paused, “is acting strangely.”

“I’ve been in Hong Kong for several days now. How about I go back with the children?” Jiang Manman said softly. “You should feel more at ease with me by your side.”

After a long silence, Yan Changye said, "Heh, then I'm even more worried."

The phone rings.

Yan Changye glanced at the incoming call and immediately put on his earphones: "Speak."

"Boss, we've uncovered two new developments." Shen Zongqian's tone was grave. "There have been huge transactions in Chairman Xie's private account, and the whereabouts are unknown. In addition, we've found that his people have been in frequent contact with personnel related to your private jet."

Yan Changye's expression was slightly cold, and he pursed his thin lips without uttering a word.

After a long pause, he casually replied, "I understand."

"What happened?" Jiang Manman asked, noticing his pale face.

Yan Changye reached out and pinched Jiang Manman's cheek: "It's a work matter. I'll take Madam back to Yushui Bay to rest later. I'll make the decision about the children. Also, there's an unexpected situation at work that I need to deal with, so I might not be able to have dinner with Madam."

The car drove all the way back to Yushui Bay.

Only after confirming that Jiang Manman had returned to her room did Yan Changye casually instruct the bodyguards at Yushui Bay: "Guard this place well and make sure the lady is safe. If it is not necessary, do not let the lady go out today."

After saying that, he turned the car around and sped towards the private airport.

The Xie family conglomerate is wealthy and powerful, and has its own private airport. Apart from Xie Yunxi's few private jets that are not frequently used, most of the Xie family conglomerate executives who own planes also choose to park here.

As the head of the Xie family conglomerate, Xie Yuheng owns just as many private jets as Yan Changye.

When Yan Changye arrived, Xie Jian and Yan Yu had not yet set off.

The children stood with Xie Yuheng, and several financiers whom Yan Changye had met in Jiangyue Prefecture a couple of days earlier were also present.

And parked behind them was Yan Changye's private jet.

"You're here?" Xie Yuheng had just finished a gathering of people from the financial sector. His tone was cold. "Li Ke will personally escort the child back to the capital, and the experts will go with him. Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

"Nothing to explain." Yan Changye leaned lazily against the car door, his peach blossom eyes gleaming with a cold light. "I suddenly remembered that my plane has been a bit unstable lately, so I'll check it out first."

Xie Yuheng met his gaze calmly: "Before each private jet takes off, it undergoes a thorough inspection by professionals."

Yan Changye smiled casually: "I want a thorough investigation."
