Sweet Chief Secretary - Chapter 531 - Split up

“Chen Wenxuan, don’t play dumb with me. I won’t allow you to take all the money Xia Family gave you just now.” Ma Liu grabbed Chen Wenxuan and wanted to rummage through his pocket.

Chen Wenxuan stopped him with his hand and stepped back, while Ma Liu did not let go of him still, who grabbed him with one hand and frisked him with the other hand.

“Keep your hands to yourself. Don’t mess with me.” Chen Wenxuan turned angry. He really could not stand staying with such a rough fellow anymore, who was rude in both his words and actions.

“Hey, you even dare to get angry with me. Do you believe that I’ll tell Xia Family that you are planning a move on them?” Since Chen Wenxuan shouted at him, Ma Liu was out of sorts, raising his fist to beat Chen Wenxuan.

“Go to tell them, and then we can split up. None of us will have it easy then.” When Ma Liu was talking, Chen Wenxuan finally got rid of Ma Liu and retreated to the other side of the desk, tidying up his clothes.

“You think you can marry Xia Yu definitely just because she came to see you today? Fine. I will tell them what you have done, and then I’ll see if you can marry her.” Ma Liu said and was ready to walk out.

It didn’t make sense that they suffered so much while he, Chen Wenxuan, got all the benefits. They could split up at the worst.

“Are you crazy? What are you going to do?” Chen Wenxuan turned anxious then. He grabbed Ma Liu, stopping him from going out, “We can talk. What are you doing? If you dare to sabotage our plan, Brother Hu will kill you.”

“Are you threatening me in the name of Brother Hu? Let’s go to Brother Hu and then we’ll know who is unreasonable.” Ma Liu was not afraid at all. If Brother Hu knew that Chen Wenxuan had taken the money all to himself, Brother Hu would throw him into the sea to feed fish.

“That’s enough. I didn’t take the money Xia Family gave me.” No matter how angry Chen Wenxuan was, he had to explain to Ma Liu. If he didn’t tell Ma Liu clearly, he would sabotage their plan certainly as he was so mindless.

“How could you be so foolish to refuse money?” Ma Liu stared at Chen Wenxuan for a while with wide-open eyes, feeling incredible.

“Would I still have a chance to get close to them if I had received their money?” Chen Wenxuan glanced at Ma Liu scornfully. What he wanted was the whole Ruyi Tower.

As long as he did not take money from Xia Family, Xia Family would feel indebted to him, especially after Zhang Hanyu came to make a scene this day. Chen Wenxuan was sure that Xia Yu would come to visit him again according to his understanding her.

That silly girl used to like him very much, so he believed that it would not take long for her to set aside prejudices and accept him again as long as he coaxed her.

Right. When Chen Wenxuan married Xia Yu, he would give them one hundred million yuan. So he was right to refuse the money as it was a small number compared to what he would get after marrying Xia Yu. However, that was money. It was really a disappointing thing for people to refuse money.

Ma Liu sighed with emotion in his heart. After warning Chen Wenxuan again, he opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he went out, he saw the foreman looking for them everywhere, “You two want to quit the job? You even dare to chat secretly. I’ll deduct your wages!”

I didn’t mind that! I was not here for money! Ma Liu really did not care about that, walking to the kitchen as if nothing had happened.

Liu Sijie told Shen Yan that Zhang Hanyu had had a meeting with Chen Wenxuan. It was not that he thought too much, but he really thought that there was something wrong with Chen Wenxuan.

First of all, he was an extremely selfish person, who slandered his ex and even took advantage of his father’s death for benefits. And he knew that Brother Hu worked for Li Tianci. They were desperadoes, and it even scared Chen Wenxuan to see them. So how could he know that Brother Hu was going to deal with Xia Yu and how could he rush forward to help Xia Yu then?

Liu Sijie’s analysis was quite reasonable. Shen Yan thought for a while and said, “Didn’t I give Chen Wenxuan a card before? Show me how much he has spent.”

“Yes. I’ll send someone to check it.” Liu Sijie soon arranged someone to do that.

After about more than an hour, the person arranged by Liu Sijie came back and found out everything, “There is really something wrong with Chen Wenxuan. He has spent almost one million in a few days. And it was not he who went to get money, but a few rascally young people, one of whom was a waiter of the mountain villa. He has worked there for only two or three days.”

“There is really something wrong. Monitor Ma Liu and find an opportunity to take him to me.” Xia Yu completely believed Chen Wenxuan this time. If they came to Chen Wenxuan without conclusive evidence, the result might be the same as or even worse than Zhang Hanyu’s meeting with Chen Wenxuan. Shen Yan wanted to interrogate Ma Liu first and then came to Chen Wenxuan after he got evidence.

After everything was arranged, it was about the time for the opera. Shen Yan’s mom had an appointment with Mrs. Xia to go to the opera and Shen Yan had bought the tickets. He and Xia Yu would accompany them.

After he walked out of the company, Second Madame also drove her car here. Seeing Shen Yan parking the car at the door, Second Madame said, “Little Yan, is it all right? Let’s go.”

Seeing his mother driving the car, Shen Yan said with a smile, “I have planned to pick you up. Why don’t you leave your car in the company parking lot? I’ll bring you to pick it up after watching the opera.”

Second Madame shook her head. “I drove here on purpose. Why did I park it here? Mrs. Xia will ride with me then, and Xia Yu with you. We won’t bother you young people.”

Second Madame had already decided to talk to Mrs. Xia about something private. It would not be convenient if they were with them.

“Fine. Let’s go.” Shen Yan got into his car after his words.

Xia Yu did not like opera so much, but her mother did, so she came here this time just to accompany her mother. When they arrived, it would still be half an hour for the opera to begin.

So they rested in the cafe on the second floor then. Xia Yu ordered milk tea and a lot of snacks for two mothers to enjoy, and she went out to buy some leisure food such as cola and popcorn so that she could eat them when enjoying the opera.

“Today’s kids don’t have the same taste as us. They don’t like opera. It’s really a grievance for them to come with us for the opera.” Seeing they were busy with buying snacks, Second Madame said with a smile to Mrs. Xia.

Mrs. Xia smiled too, “That’s true. The girl used to nod off whenever she went to the opera with me when she was a child.”

“Just like Little Yan.” said Second Madame. When it came to Xia Yu and Shen Yan’s past, they had so much to talk about.

They sighed with emotion that their children had grown up while they had been old.

While Xia Yu was busy in front of the popcorn machine. Seeing that, Shen Yan reminded her kindly, “Don’t buy so much. My mom will ask whether we come here for snacks or opera when she sees it then and she will say, ‘if you want snacks, eat as many as you can at home. Why you have no talent in art?’ ”

“So your mother will say something like that as well? I have thought only my mother will.” Xia Yu handed Shen Yan two large buckets of popcorn and said with a smile, “It seems that they have a tacit understanding with each other. They are likely to become friends.”

“So, Young Master Yan’s mother was also here? Then I’ll say hello to her.” Madame Bao also came here to watch an opera, but the opera she enjoyed just now had finished, and she was ready to leave.

After hearing Xia Yu and Shen Yan talking, she knew that they were also here.

After so many things happened, Madame Bao seldom went out. If it were not for her favorite opera, she would not have been out yet.

Xia Yu turned back, just to see Madame Bao standing not far away from them with Bao Na. Bao Na was wearing a scarf. Although her wound had healed after the last accident, it left a deep and long scar.

Because it was on her neck, Bao Na wore a scarf every day.

“Bao Na, glad to see you here.” Xia Yu greeted Bao Na. They had not seen each other for some time, and Bao Na was thinner and gaunter than before, whose eyes looked so gloomy.

After Xia Yu greeted her, she just nodded mechanically.

“I asked her to come here. Her father doesn’t like opera. I would have been lonely if coming alone.” Seeing that Bao Na did not speak, Madame Bao answered Xia Yu for her. Then she smiled at Xia Yu and said, “So, is Mrs. Xia in S city now?”

“Well, my father came to sign a contract with Shen Group, so my mother came with him.” Xia Yu concealed her mother’s real reason for coming here. The fewer people knew about that thing, the better it would be.

“Your mother likes opera as well?” asked Madame Bao.

Xia Yu nodded, “She likes it so much. When she heard that it was her favorite opera troupe, she was so elated.”

“It seems we have the same interest. How can we not meet each other?” Madame Bao said with a smile.

“Mom!” Bao Na obviously did not want to see other people. Since what happened last time, she almost stayed at home every day, and she came out this time because her mother had begged her for a long time.

She had thought they could go back after watching the opera, and she didn’t expect that her mother wanted to visit Xia Yu’s mother. Bao Na abased herself before Xia Yu as they had been classmates before, and they both had been hurt by men, while Xia Yu was living a great life this time, unlike her.

Her life was in a total mess. How could she have the courage to sit beside her this time?

“Poor girl. They were not outsiders. Shouldn’t we go and greet them?” Actually, Madame Bao was not much better than her daughter, and she did not want to meet other people as well.

But the psychiatrist said they had to get past the leap anyway, or they would be at risk of major depression and even mental disorders.

It didn’t matter to Madame Bao as she had been so old then, but Bao Na was still young. She had to think for Bao Na, even not for herself. So she plucked up a lot of courage to come out.

After the opera, she had been looking for reasons to stay out. Now that they had met Xia Yu this time, and Bao Na would not exclude them so much probably because they were all familiar with each other, so Madame Bao tried to persuade Bao Na.

“Girl, your auntie has been so kind to you, and she always treats you like her daughter. If she knows you don’t go to greet her even when you know she is here, she will be angry. Good girl, we’ll leave after greeting them. It won’t take long.” Madame Bao said and held Bao Na’s arm.

“They’re in the cafe upfront. I’ll take you there.” Seeing that Madame Bao was so enthusiastic, Xia Yu had to take them to Second Madame and her mother.

Since Madame Bao said so, and Shen Yan was also here, Bao Na could not refuse then. She had to follow them to go to the cafe reluctantly.

At this time, Second Madame was looking at her watch, “Oh, time is running out. Why haven’t they come back yet? Don’t be late. I don’t want to miss the beginning.”
