Su Yan tilted her head and smiled at Xia Zijian, who was in the corridor, to express her gratitude for taking care of her. The reason why she knew that Xia Zijian was the one who had asked for her blanket was because Wei Zhou and Lan Jian weren’t such attentive men.
Xia Zijian smiled and said, “Have you slept well?”
Su Yan nodded. “Yes.”
Xia Zijian said again, “It seems that beauty comes from sleeping. Sleeping beauties!”
Su Yan smiled and said, “Thank you for praising me.”
In Jiang Du, this month’s weather was like the mood of a young girl in love. Sometimes it was good, and sometimes it was bad. The sky was still clear before they landed, but after they landed, it started to drizzle.
After chatting with Xia Zijian, Su Yan folded the blanket and handed it back to the flight attendant. She found that Wei Zhou had been looking at her and Xia Zijian with a cold expression, but she pretended not to see anything.
When they got off the plane, Lan Jian spoke for the first time, “Oh, so it’s Su Yan. I was wondering where this beauty came from. What a coincidence.”
Su Yan didn’t even look at him, as if she hadn’t heard him at all. She was in a bad mood, and saying another word felt like a waste of her time. Seeing that she was ignoring him, Lan Jian could only shrug his shoulders and spread his hands. He had an expression that said, “Woman, you’re really heartless!”
After leaving the airport, Su Yan directly got into Wang Xiaoxue’s car. Initially, Xia Zijian wanted to personally send her off, but seeing that Wang Xiaoxue was already here, he could only let Su Yan leave. He watched as Su Yan disappeared at the airport entrance, Lan Jian looked at Wei Zhou and said, “Think about it. Although Su Yan didn’t let you send her off, she didn’t let Xia Zijian send her off either, so you still have a chance.”
Wei Zhou frowned and didn’t say anything. At this time, Xia Zijian’s extended version of the Lincoln passed by Wei Zhou. Xia Zijian even deliberately lowered the car window and looked at Wei Zhou with a provocative smile. Their gazes met. Lan Jian, who was standing at the side, seemed to be able to see tension in the air. It wasn’t until the car was far away that Xia Zijian raised the car window.
“Ah Zhou, I feel that Wang Xiaoxue seems to have a very good relationship with Su Yan. In the past, I only knew that Su Yan and Tang Yitong were best friends. When did Wang Xiaoxue appear? Both of them work under Miss Summer. One is a senior assistant, and the other is the top secretary of the company. According to their ranks, Wang Xiaoxue should be higher than Su Yan. How could she be the one to pick Su Yan up? Don’t you think this is very strange?” Lan Jian’s focus was completely different from Wei Zhou’s. From Wang Xiaoxue’s respectful attitude toward Su Yan just now, he had noticed something.
“I didn’t realize before that you actually had such complicated thoughts. Why do you suddenly care about Wang Xiaoxue? Do you like her?” Wei Zhou glared at him and said.
Lan Jian was speechless.
Although he was in the entertainment industry, it didn’t mean that he was a gossiper, okay? However, seeing that Wei Zhou was in a bad mood, he didn’t say anything. He was also extremely tired, and he didn’t want to be pulled by Wei Zhou to the boxing gym to be a punching bag.
Wang Xiaoxue asked while driving, “President Su, there’s something I have to tell you. I found out that someone has been secretly investigating you recently.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows. “Wei Zhou? Or Xia Zijian?”
Wang Xiaoxue shook her head. “Neither. It’s someone you would never think of.”
Su Yan’s beautiful eyes flickered. “Oh, who is it that’s so mysterious?”
Wang Xiaoxue answered, “The party secretary of Xiang City, Yue Chuang.”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows. “Yue Chuang? Why is it him? Are you sure?”
Wang Xiaoxue nodded. “I’m very sure. Yesterday, Yue Chuang’s secretariat called the group and investigated you in a roundabout way. They also collected some information about you from many sources. They didn’t even spare Feng City.”
Hearing this, Su Yan was a little surprised. Wasn’t Yue Chuang the high-ranking official who chatted with Xia Jiang at the banquet last night? The two of them had never interacted before. At most, they were acquaintances. There was no enmity between them. Why did he suddenly start investigating her? Could it be that Yue Chuang also coveted her for her beauty? Very quickly, Su Yan rejected this idea. Yue Chuang was almost forty years old this year, and he already had a family. It seemed that his children weren’t young anymore. How could he lust after a twenty-something girl like her? Moreover, government officials care about reputation the most. Once they were reported, they would be dismissed.
Su Yan asked, “What did they find out?”
Wang Xiaoxue thought for a moment and said, “There isn’t much about you. It seems that the focus is on your mother.”
Su Yan was stunned. “Yue Chuang sent people to investigate my mother?”
Wang Xiaoxue nodded and said, “That’s right. From the questions they asked and the places they sent people to investigate, they seem to be more interested in your mother’s matter. This is also what I can’t figure out.”
