Yan Xuxu quickly realized what it meant.

This was his response to the message he had Mu Nan convey that afternoon!

She was so angry she laughed.

Having known him for so many years, she always knew he had a strange temper and was vindictive.

I didn't expect him to be so petty!

Before she could speak, Xie Lanyuan took the initiative to introduce her, "This is the research genius and cardiology expert I was talking about, Ms. Yan."

The eyes of the four middle-aged men all fell on Yan Xuxu.

Yan Xuxu smiled politely at them.

In that instant when she looked up, she realized that these people were the same ones who had been with Xie Lanyuan at the restaurant last time.

When the group saw her face, their eyes were filled with amazement, yet also with a hint of doubt.

In the past few days, Xie Lanyuan had mentioned Yan Xuxu to them quite often. They guessed she was a young person, but they didn't expect her to be so young and beautiful.

She looks several years younger than Jie Lanyuan.

If it weren't for the people Xie Lanyuan personally brought over.

They thought it was just empty talk, a pretty face but nothing more.

Xie Lanyuan then introduced them to her one by one, "This is Professor Lan, Professor Huang... They are the research experts I told you about. They are currently researching new technologies in the field of heart disease. You can have in-depth discussions with them."

A document was neatly arranged in front of them.

Yan Xuxu glanced at it; it was a research report on the heart.

She understood.

These experts were also entrusted by Xie Lanyuan to research techniques to save Xie Siyu.

After shaking hands with each of the professors, Yan Xuxu sat down next to Xie Lanyuan.

Jie Lanyuan handed her his report.

After a quick glance, Yan Xuxu discovered that their research direction was similar to hers, and she became interested and shared her insights.

As soon as she spoke, the few people who had previously had doubts suddenly thought more highly of her.

"May I ask, Miss Yan, where did you study?"

Professor Lan knows many big names in the scientific research community, but he especially admires Professor Xie Sheng, who is an absolute legend in the scientific research field. His students are all young and strong, and each of them is a pillar of the scientific research community.

Previously, when his research was stuck in a bottleneck, he consulted Professor Xie. The professor introduced him to several apprentices, and he had contacted them. Although their insights were all worth considering, they could not match Yan Xuxu's meticulous and incisive analysis.

But if Yan Xuxu is a scientific research genius, why has she never been mentioned before?

Jie Lanyuan glanced at Yan Xuxu again and answered for her, "Miss Yan's identity is confidential and cannot be disclosed."

Professor Lan was even more surprised.

To date, he only knows one person: Professor Xie's most prized disciple, He Xing, whose identity is protected by the state, and no one knows who He Xing really is.

Unexpectedly, this young man in front of me is just like He Xing.

Yan Xuxu breathed a sigh of relief. She was worried that Xie Lanyuan would expose her identity and cause unnecessary trouble. Fortunately, this man knew his limits.

Then, the group started chatting about research topics.

Yan Xuxu's research is confidential and cannot be disclosed. Therefore, she analyzed the research of several predecessors and put forward some of her own insights.

Of course, she also gained a lot from these seniors.

The group became increasingly engrossed in their conversation, almost to the point of forgetting themselves.

Xie Lanyuan wasn't an expert in this field, so he sat aside and listened without saying a word.

But his gaze involuntarily fell on Yan Xuxu.

Looking at her professional and confident demeanor, even he himself didn't realize how fierce the undercurrent in her eyes was.

At this moment, Mu Nan appeared, tiptoed to his side, and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Xie, your wife is looking for you. She wants to introduce someone to you."

Xie Lanyuan's face suddenly turned cold. He turned his gaze back to his phone screen. He had been busy and had put his phone on vibrate mode. Several calls came in during that time, but he hung up on them all.

Tell her I'm busy.

Mu Nan was in a dilemma. "But Madam said that if you don't go over, she will take the person to your villa."

Jie Lanyuan glanced at the people chatting, then finally stood up, grabbed his phone, and quietly left the meeting room.

As soon as he arrived at the banquet hall, he saw Shen Mingzhou weaving through the crowd, seemingly looking for someone.

My phone started vibrating again.

He picked it up and glanced at it.

Shen Mingzhou's gaze was suddenly drawn to him, and he strode over, his voice urgent: "President Jie?"

Although Shen Mingzhou didn't see Xie Lanyuan's face when they bumped into each other at the restaurant that day, he remembered his back.

The person in front of me is similar in height to Jie Lanyuan, and their temperament is also similar.

He guessed that the other party might be Xie Lanyuan.

"I'll be right there."

Jie Lanyuan was turned to the side, holding his phone and making a call, his voice as cold as ice.

Shen Mingzhou abruptly stopped walking, his pupils contracting sharply.

That voice... is it Shen Mohan?

He rushed over, grabbed the other person's wrist, and said in disbelief, "How could it be you?"

Xie Lanyuan hung up the phone and looked at him expressionlessly. "If it wasn't me, who else does President Shen think it could be?"

Shen Mingzhou warned fiercely, "This is not a place for you. Get out of here right now and don't embarrass the Shen family."

The surrounding guests turned to look, but Jie Lanyuan didn't care at all. She gently pulled her hand away, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "Who gave you the nerve to tell me to get out?"

After saying that, he straightened his suit cuffs and looked at Su Wanqing, who was rushing towards them. "As for President Shen, he is so openly hugging and cuddling with his woman. I wonder what Mrs. Shen will do when she finds out."

Shen Mingzhou's face turned deathly pale, and his eyes reddened with guilt. "Did you see Xuxu? What did you say to her?"

Jie Lanyuan sneered without saying a word, then slammed his head against the shoulder, even harder than when he had slammed his head against Yan Xuxu earlier.

Shen Mingzhou didn't react for a moment and staggered back a few steps.

Xie Lanyuan took a few steps, then stopped and turned back, his voice laced with sarcasm, "Mrs. Shen must have contributed a lot to President Shen's success today. If he loses this assistant, it's hard to say whether he can still hold onto his position as President of Ming'an."

Shen Mingzhou threatened fiercely, "I don't care what you saw, you'd better keep it to yourself. If you dare to utter a single word, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Just then, Su Wanqing, who had been unable to find Jie Lanyuan, came looking for him.

He asked anxiously, "Ah Zhou, have we still not seen President Xie?"

Shen Mingzhou didn't go looking for her at all; he had been looking for Yan Xuxu the whole time.

What a commotion!

He was somewhat worried because Yan Xuxu was angry and wouldn't reply to his messages.

"He probably won't show up."

The birthday banquet has been going on for quite some time now, and there has still been no sign of Jie Lanyuan.

Presumably, Xie Lanyuan has no intention of showing up.

Shen Mingzhou looked ahead again and suddenly saw a middle-aged woman appear, grabbing Xie Lanyuan's arm and pulling him away in a certain direction.
