Lin Qingyi's eyes reddened, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She was attracted to Xie Lanyuan the moment she first saw him five years ago.

She even dreamed of marrying him.

She worked hard to learn how to manage the company and to become more outstanding, all in order to catch Jie Lanyuan's attention.

She was overjoyed the day Madam Xie came to visit.

During this time, she also tried her best to get along with Xie Lanyuan.

But his heart was never with her, and every time Madam Xie tried to match him up, he could find a reason to refuse.

Even taking her home was done by his assistant.

That day when they went to the orphanage, if Madam Xie hadn't intervened, Xie Lanyuan wouldn't have brought her along at all.

She had assumed that their relationship had progressed since he fought for her last time and they spent time together at the orphanage.

But these past few days, every time she said she wanted to visit Sisi, Xie Lanyuan would find an excuse not to let her come.

Even last night, when Madam Xie asked him to take her home, he did see her downstairs and into the car, but in the end, he still had Mu Nan take her back.

What she found most unacceptable was that she had just arrived home when news broke that he had been seen kissing another woman passionately in a car.

This morning, Madam Xie comforted her for a long time and said that she would have Xie Lanyuan give her an explanation.

From the moment she arrived until now, although Xie Lanyuan appeared to be accompanying her, he was always absent-minded.

She didn't get a single explanation from him.

But then he personally denied their relationship.

Lin Qingyi couldn't accept it, turned around and ran away in tears.

Jiang Suyun saw this and said anxiously, "What are you standing there for? Go after them!"

Jie Lanyuan remained unmoved, his aura still cold. "I don't like Lin Qingyi, Mother, don't waste your energy."

"If you don't like Qingyi, then who do you like?" Jiang Suyun's chest heaved, her face filled with disappointment. "That Miss Yan?"

Xie Lanyuan said casually, "Since Mother already knows, she shouldn't waste her time on Lin Qingyi."

"I will not allow you to be with that woman."

Jiang Suyun's attitude was forceful: "If it weren't for Qingyi's mother saving me back then, how could I have escaped from the clutches of thugs while pregnant with you? Qingyi's mother was also injured and became a vegetable, and she hasn't woken up yet."

"Our family owes the Lin family a debt we can never repay in this lifetime. If you dare to betray Qingyi, I will never forgive you."

Xie Lanyuan's face darkened. "Does Mother mean to sacrifice my happiness to repay the Lin family for saving my life?"

Jiang Suyun's attitude was firm: "Yes."

Xie Lanyuan sneered, "Then I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint my mother. I will not marry Lin Qingyi, much less like her."

"Also, Yan Xuxu is a medical genius I invited to perform surgery on Sisi. Please don't bother her, Mother."

Yan Xuxu said she would spend more time with Sisi.

Unsurprisingly, it was her mother who approached her and said something.

Otherwise, given her temperament, she wouldn't have suddenly left without saying goodbye.

When this matter was mentioned, Jiang Suyun snorted coldly, "I asked her, and she is not a professional doctor. Letting her perform surgery on Sisi is like pushing Sisi into a fire pit."

Xie Lanyuan rubbed his throbbing temples, his expression growing even colder. "Although she doesn't come from a professional background, her abilities are unmatched by those who call themselves authoritative experts."

Jiang Suyun pointed at him and angrily rebuked him, "You're completely bewitched by her; you believe everything she says."

Xie Lanyuan had no time to argue with her, and his voice was impatient. "I believe in her abilities, and I ask Mother to respect my choice and not interfere in this matter."

Jiang Suyun pressed her hand to her chest, took several steps back, and said with exasperation, "Sisi is my granddaughter. I will never allow you to just find anyone to perform surgery on her. Even if Yan Xuxu knows medicine, I will not agree."

Jie Lanyuan looked at her indifferently, yet with a hint of suspicion.

It was Jiang Suyun's idea to adopt Sisi.

Over the years, Jiang Suyun has treated Sisi like her own granddaughter.

Jie Lanyuan assumed that she was just eager to have a granddaughter, so he agreed to keep Sisi by his side without giving it much thought.

But no matter who he invited before, Jiang Suyun never objected.

Why did Yan Xuxu react so excitedly?

"She is the only person who is capable of performing this surgery so far. If your mother wants Sisi to recover, she'd better not provoke her."

That woman was stubborn.

He had been planning this for so long before she finally took the bait and agreed to help Sisi with the surgery.

If her mother intervenes and angers her, given her temper, she might actually give up.

Jiang Suyun persisted, harping on about her qualifications, "You say she's capable, then tell me, what degree does she have, and where does she work?"

Xie Lanyuan completely lost his patience, and his voice became a few degrees louder, "Her field lies in research, and she doesn't need to use these irrelevant pieces of paper to prove her abilities."

Jiang Suyun was furious.

This son has always been meticulous in his actions, and his methods in the business world are watertight, which has always made people feel very at ease.

Now, faced with Yan Xuxu's situation, he has completely lost his senses and is actually willing to entrust Sisi's life to an outsider.

She just couldn't understand what kind of bewitching potion this woman had given her son.

That's how you manage to fool him completely.

Jiang Suyun remained adamant, "No matter what you say, I absolutely will not agree to this. Without my approval, she can forget about cutting Sisi."

"If you insist on doing this, you are putting Sisi's life at risk."

Xie Lanyuan didn't want to say anything more. He left after saying those words, and walked past her to leave.

Jiang Suyun stopped him, "You come back here and explain this to Qingyi yourself."

Xie Lanyuan didn't even turn his head, disappearing in a few steps ahead.

Jiang Suyun was so angry she almost fainted.

When he reunited with Xie Lanyuan, he refused to go home with her no matter what, because of this woman.

If she hadn't used some tricks...

Their great family business was left without a successor.

Lan Yuan thought that once Yan Xuxu married into the Shen family, he would give up completely. However, he never expected that over the past five years, he would still be so devoted to her and would continue to keep an eye on the situation of both the Shen and Yan families.

Fearing unforeseen circumstances, she hastily approached the Lin family, hoping to win back Xie Lanyuan through a marriage alliance.

During this time, she tried every means to get him to spend time with Lin Qingyi, hoping that the two of them could develop their relationship more.

Who knew that this good son would still get involved with Yan Xuxu.

It even made the news!

Jiang Suyun absolutely forbids the heir of the Xie family from having an affair with a married woman.

If this gets out, will the Xie family's reputation be ruined?

……

On her way back, Yan Xuxu kept thinking about Jiang Suyun's attitude towards her.

He was thinking too deeply and didn't even notice that there was someone standing at his door.

She got out of the car after it had come to a complete stop, and took out her keys to open the door. It was only when the other person spoke that she came to her senses.

"You're the owner of this villa, right?"

The other person smiled gently at her, with a kind expression.
