He was already 18 years old. It was one thing for Xi Jingxing to never let him come into contact with the company’s business, but he had never even brought anyone into the company to show his face.

The employees of the company only knew the eldest young master, Xi Yaohua, but they did not know who Xi Yan was.

Not to mention that the rich and powerful families groomed their heirs since they were young.

Recently, Yan Yunzhi had often familiarized Yan XI with some of the internal structures and business sections of the Yan Group. When he said that he considered Yan XI as his heir, it was not empty words.

After the college entrance exam, the other party took the initiative to ask Yan XI about her summer arrangements. They wanted to arrange for Yan XI to study at the Yan group during the summer.

It did not matter if she did not know anything for the time being. After all, the group’s higher-ups attended many meetings, so she could understand as much as she could. At the same time, it would be good for her to familiarize herself with the higher-ups and employees.

Xi Jingxing finally understood that Yan Xi wouldn’t agree to borrow money now. She was probably very dissatisfied with him.

He had always wanted to repair his relationship with Yan XI, but what was the use? Now, even the shore Zhi Tinglan Villa area was forbidden to him.

XI jingxing sighed softly. “Yan Yan, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have borrowed money from you. Don’t be angry if I’ve made things difficult for you.”

“However, I still want to treat you and Xi Yan to a meal as a celebration for the end of the college entrance exam, okay? I Won’t mention anything about the company or borrowing money.”

Probably afraid that Yan XI would refuse, he quickly said, “Your grandmother and your brother agreed.”

Yan Xi thought about it and happened to have something to ask Xi Jingxing.

“Okay.”

After XI jingxing hung up the phone, he was in a daze for a while.

It had rained heavily today. He sat in the spacious and bright office and looked down at the torrential rain outside. His mood was not very good.

That man had appeared in North Bridge City… that glimpse on the street that day was definitely not an illusion.

The other party had intentionally let him see it and even revealed a malicious smile, causing his heart to instantly jump to his throat.

No matter what, he could not have a conflict with Yan Xi at this time and let others see him as a joke.

Xi Yaohua knocked on the door and came in. “Uncle, has Yan XI agreed to borrow money?”

When he saw that Xi Jingxing did not say anything, he instantly understood and slammed the table angrily.

“I knew it! She doesn’t have a conscience at all and doesn’t care about the lives of our XI family!”

Initially, he thought that Xi Jingxing would definitely agree with her. After all, they had already reached this point. Her biological father had taken the initiative to beg her, but she was still unwilling to help. Her heart was indeed as hard as iron.

Even the blood flowing in her body was cold. She was too heartless!

Xi Jingxing looked up at his nephew who he had always thought highly of. He frowned. “How can you sow discord between us father and daughter? If you speak ill of Yan Yan in front of me again, you’ll pack up and leave yourself!”

After XI Yaohua was invited to Xi Jingxing’s office, he did not react for a long time.

He saw his assistant, Wu Liang, being called in. He stood at the door and listened in the corner for a while. Only then did he realize that Xi Jingxing had originally planned to treat Yan XI and Xi Yan to a meal to celebrate.

This was too infuriating. He had been trying to curry favor with XI jingxing, but in the end, the other party kicked him aside and turned around to look for his biological children.

Xi Jingxing had arranged for dinner to be at night. When Yan XI and Xi Yan arrived, Huo Mingyue was already there.

Xi Jingxing was especially attentive and considerate. “Yan Yan, Xi Yan, you two have worked hard. Let’s eat first.”

Both Yan XI and Xi Yan did not move.

Xi Jingxing was a little embarrassed for a moment.

Huo Mingyue said, “It’s nothing. Sit Down and eat first.”

The meal went smoothly. Huo Mingyue only put down her chopsticks after she finished eating and snorted coldly.

Xi jingxing could also hear that there was something wrong with the other party’s cold snort. He could not help but hesitate. “Mother, is there something you’re not happy about?”

Huo Mingyue replied, “I’m indeed not happy. Do you know that your aunt plans to change Chen Xiangxiang’s surname to the Xi family tree?”

Xi Jingxing’s expression was a little stiff. Obviously, he knew about it.

Yan Xi was a little surprised. So Huo Mingyue had not been around these past few days to deal with this matter?

Speaking of which, Xi Lulong really went all out. Did she really like Chen Xiangxiang so much that she had to adopt her?

Xi Jingxing hesitated for a moment, “Mom, Xiangxiang is already engaged to Zi Ang. The Chen family’s status isn’t enough, and the Huo family’s face isn’t good either. That’s why Aunt Wants to change Xiangxiang’s surname. “Auntie has worked hard in the XI family, and this is all she has. I can’t not satisfy her…”

Huo Mingyue interrupted him. “I don’t agree.”

Her attitude was firm and cold. She refused to back down.

Xi jingxing subconsciously glanced at Yan XI.

Huo Mingyue said, “Why are you looking at Yan Yan? I’m the one who doesn’t agree. I find it very annoying. Chen Xiangxiang is so popular, why must she stay in the Xi family and not leave?”

Yan Xi sighed in her heart. Even though she didn’t understand why Huo Mingyue was so adamant against it, she had to admit that Chen Xiangxiang was indeed invincible as the female lead.

Even if she cut off her connection with XI jingxing, she could still continue in another way.

The other party could still continue to be the Xi family’s miss and marry into the Huo family, reaping everyone’s admiration and affection.

Xi jinxing was caught in a dilemma.

“Grandmother, you’re wrong. It’s fine if you don’t let Uncle Adopt Xiangxiang, but isn’t it your suggestion for me to adopt Xiangxiang?”Xi Yaohua pushed open the door to the private room and barged in.

He secretly followed Xi Jinxing, wanting to eavesdrop on whether the other party was planning to kick him out and help Xi Yan become Xi Empire’s heir.

He did not expect to hear another thing, and he was instantly furious.

His parents and XI jingxing were very filial. They did not even dare to complain when Huo Mingyue wanted to hit or scold them.

However, he was not as stupid and filial as his parents! How could he let an outsider criticize the Xi family’s affairs?

“Great-aunt has already gotten a master to approve her life. Xiangxiang is our Xi family’s Lucky Star! Look at how she managed to get a capital injection for XI corporation this time!”Xi Yaohua looked at Yan XI proudly, “Some people don’t have the surname Xi, but they’re not on the same side as us. They’ve already left us to die, yet they still want to interfere with whether someone else has the surname Xi or not?”

Xi Jingxing was stunned. “You Said Xiangxiang helped us get a capital injection?”

He did not know about this.

XI yaohua said, “Of course, Xiangxiang is so capable! She managed to get us a 50 million investment in one go, and the other party is a high net worth client!”

Yan Xi was speechless

50 million was considered a high-net-worth client. Xi Yaohua was indeed a little inexperienced.

However, she was also surprised that Chen Xiangxiang was so capable to get an investment?

Obviously, it was not Huo Ziang who helped her. The Huo family was already in a tight spot because of Huo Xiao’s withdrawal and disconnection. It was impossible for Huo Ziang to fork out so much money to help Chen Xiangxiang.

Even if President Ba wanted to follow the sweet-and-spoilt path, he had to have enough money on hand.

Huo Zi’ang obviously cared more about the Huo family.
