“you’re fast.” Xie Xi n caressed his teacup and looked up at Shi boyu, his eyes indifferent.
” you’re more capable than i thought. you’re so well-informed in sea city, a place you’re not familiar with. i’ve only been in sea city for a short while, but you’ve already found my whereabouts. ”
“one did not have the intention to investigate grandmother’s whereabouts and only found out by chance. If grandmother didn’t go to Haicheng University to see Yanyan, I wouldn’t have known that grandmother had come to Haicheng so quickly.”
shi boyu pushed up the frame of his glasses and leaned back against the sofa. his sitting posture was obviously a little lazy, but it didn’t seem unruly at all. instead, he had the weak air of a scholar.
His attitude towards Xie Xi n was neither warm nor cold. At first glance, it didn’t seem like the way a grandfather and grandson should get along. It was more like two people of equal status were talking about business.
xie xi n seemed to be used to his attitude and didn’t have much of a reaction. he glanced at him and said, ” “So you’ve been sending people to keep an eye on that girl?”
“no, i know that yanyan doesn’t like others to keep an eye on her but i still sent people to keep an eye on her. it’s fine if it’s others but as her blood brother, i can’t do such a thing. i’m just looking for someone in haicheng, and i sent a little too many people out. someone just happened to see my grandmother at haicheng university.”
there was a deep meaning in his words.
for the past nine years, shi yan had been living in wu county of yun province. the shi family had been watching her and obstructing her, so no one could find any news about her. Almost all of the people who were keeping an eye on Shi Yan were sent by the old master and old Madam of the first branch of the Shi family.
xie xi n knew that he was referring to her, but he showed no signs of anger. he looked at him calmly and said, ” “You know very well why your grandfather and I sent people to keep an eye on that girl Yanyan. If your grandfather and I didn’t send people to keep an eye on her, you would have sent people to keep an eye on her, right?”
“Your grandfather and I merely did what everyone wanted to do. Why are you so angry?”
Shi boyu could not refute her words.
Shi Yan was alone outside. They couldn’t just leave her alone. Sending people to keep an eye on her was also a form of protection for her. after all, once the whereabouts of the young lady of the shi family were exposed, it would be very unsafe for her to be alone.
Shi boyu understood this, but he was still very unhappy when he thought of how Shi Yan’s every move had been watched over the years.
” that girl is indeed a member of the shi family. not only did she have the courage to abandon her wealth and glory and run away from home at the age of ten, but she could also manage her own people behind our back under the strict surveillance of your grandfather and i. ”
“you don’t have to look at me like that. your grandfather and i are only keeping an eye on her. we haven’t gone too far to investigate her. It’s because she’s been making a lot of moves recently and has caused a lot of trouble in the capital. She didn’t even try to hide that it was her doing. It’s hard for your grandfather and I not to know.”
“she wouldn’t be able to do this if she didn’t have a few people under her.”
it seemed that they didn’t know that yanyan had power in qingcheng.
Shi boyu didn’t intend to say much.
He glanced at Gu Yuanyuan, who had been scared silly in the corner.
“since grandmother knows that yanyan has people under her, she should be clear that she can easily deal with such a small character. why did she take action and bring them over?”
she can solve it easily, but I just can’t stand the way she doesn’t care about anything and does things gently, allowing any Tom, Dick, and Harry to bully her.
he glanced at gu yuanyuan, who was in the corner. ” she’s just a small fry. she can easily settle her with a flick of her finger. she actually allowed her to commit such a crime again. ”
“yanyan just doesn’t want to waste her time on this.”
“Since you don’t want to waste time, isn’t it better to just get rid of it?”
“unlike grandmother’s swift and decisive actions, yanyan has her own standards of handling things. moreover, grandmother also said that this was just a small character. grandmother felt that with yanyan’s indifferent personality, how much time would she spare on such a small character? maybe after seeing him, yanyan will quickly forget that there is such a person.”
Shi BOSU was right. If it weren’t for the fact that Gu Yuanyuan was very likely to be involved with the Gu family, Shi Yan would have long forgotten about her.
“I heard that you’ve been looking for the head of the Gu family, and you even asked the one from the Jiang family and Yanyan for help?”
it wasn’t a secret that shi boyu was looking for someone, so he wasn’t surprised that xie xi n knew.
“As expected of grandmother, I can’t hide anything from you.”
you don’t seem to have any interactions with the Gu family. Why are you looking for Gu Yi? ”
“I want to ask him about something.”
“Inquire about something?”
Shi boyu didn’t say anything and only glanced at her.
“it looks like you don’t want to tell me, and i’m not the kind of person to get to the bottom of things.”
his gaze fell on gu yuanyuan again. at this time, gu yuanyuan’s pupils contracted and her whole body trembled. she seemed to be even more frightened than before.
“This person’s surname seems to be Gu.”
shi boyu had been looking for the head of the gu family since he arrived in haicheng. in addition, he knew that shi yan didn’t like people investigating her, so he only knew that someone had tried to cause trouble for shi yan but was taught a lesson by her. he didn’t know the person’s name.
She was a little surprised to find out that the person Xie Xi n had brought back also had the surname Gu.
“i heard that grandmother brought her back to ask her family to come and redeem her?”
xie xi n didn’t comment.
shi boyu didn’t say anything more. he instructed the bodyguard beside him, ” “Take the thing off her mouth and let her make the call.”
The bodyguard was very fast. He removed the cloth covering Gu Yuanyuan’s mouth, found her phone, and unlocked it with her fingerprint. All of this was done in one go and was done in less than half a minute.
the bodyguard passed the phone to gu yuanyuan.
“let’s fight,” shi boyu said.
Gu Yuanyuan didn’t dare to scream even after she was untied. She was afraid that if she accidentally angered the other party, she would end up in a worse state.
she shivered and shrank back, not daring to answer the phone. he didn’t know if it was because he didn’t dare to make the call or because he didn’t know who to call.
“i … i was wrong. i … i won’t dare to cause trouble for shi yan again. please … please let me go. yingluo, i beg you to let me go.”
I, I don’t have any family background. My parents are ordinary people. I, I don’t know who to call, Yingluo.
Xie Xi n gave the bodyguard a look.
Instantly, there was a series of screams.
the bodyguard didn’t show any mercy just because the other party was a woman.
“It’s done,” the bodyguard only stopped after xie xi n spoke.
gu yuanyuan curled up into a ball, but neither xie xi n nor shi boyu felt any sympathy for her.
they were not people who would sympathize with just anyone. furthermore, gu yuanyuan’s repeated trouble with shi yan had already angered them. Sympathize with Gu Yuanyuan? They were not that kind.
Xie Xi n stroked his teacup and glanced at Gu Yuanyuan with dignity, ” “little girl, you didn’t really think that i invited you back as a guest, did you?”
“Even if your parents are ordinary people, they’re still your parents. Call them and ask them to come and redeem them. since you dared to do it, you should be prepared to bear the consequences.”
“i, i’m yingluo.”
“we’re not fighting?”
seeing that the bodyguard was about to hit her again, gu yuanyuan quickly screamed and cried, ” “i’ll fight! I hit! i hit! I’ll do it now!”
