Chapter 620: Chapter 620: Don’t Let The Third Person Know
Yao froze immediately. “If you want to know something, Miss, it might be better to ask Mr. Jie directly.”
“Don’t be so nervous. I just want to know a few little things. I forgot to ask Dan Hanjie earlier. You saw him, he left. So it’s okay to ask you now, right?”
Qin Youxuan walked up to the sofa with a smile, asked the butler to serve two cups of hot tea, and looked at Yao. “Sit, why are you standing?”
Yao tensed up even more, his body rigid.
“Or should I personally come over and invite you?” Qin Youxuan pointed at the two cups of tea in front of her and frowned.
Fearing her displeasure, Yao quickly sat on the couch.
He sat there, his legs together, hands politely laid on his knees, looking as tense as if ready for combat.
He didn’t know where to look as he observed Qin Youxuan leisurely sipping her tea.
“Yao, you’ve been by Dan Hanjie’s side for many years. He must trust you a lot, right?” Qin Youxuan put down her cup of tea and smiled slightly, looking up.
On hearing her words, Yao abruptly stood up. “Being trusted by Mr. Jie is an honor for me.”
He stood there upright, looking like he was about to salute.
“Just think of it as a casual chat. You don’t have to be so tense. I promise not to force you to talk about things you don’t want to talk about.” Knowing Yao’s loyalty to Dan Hanjie, Qin Youxuan wouldn’t push him into a corner.
Yao’s expression thank was respectful, but he didn’t relax at all.
He seemed to think she was like a predator, tensing up .
“By the way, since we came to America so suddenly, what about Da Bai?” Qin Youxuan suddenly spoke, changing the topic.
Yao was clearly startled before he replied, “Don’t worry, Miss. Once the situation here stabilizes, we’ll bring Da Bai over too.”
“That’s good, then I won’t have to worry about having no one to accompany me.” Qin Youxuan smiled, looking at Yao.
“By the way, when you said ‘once the situation stabilizes’, what situation are you referring to?”
Yao was shocked and looked at Qin Youxuan.
“Dan Hanjie said that coming to America was necessary. That means his removal as CEO was just a smokescreen. In actuality…”
Yao interrupted Qin Youxuan’s conjecture, his eyes widening in alarm. He glanced around nervously to make sure no one else was around before lowering his voice.
“Whatever you heard, Miss, should not be known by a third party.”
“Then tell me the truth. I can leave you to do whatever you want, but you at least should tell me whether he’s in danger or not. I don’t want to worry every time he leaves, scared if something will happen to him.”
Qin Youxuan’s eyes clouded over.
These worries, she never mentioned them to Dan Hanjie.
She didn’t even dare let him know.
After hesitating for a moment, Yao finally spoke softly. “Mr. Jie is here this time because the old CEO proposed his dismissal. The Dan family’s internal power struggle is also involved…”
Qin Youxuan’s nerves tightened as she listened attentively.
The Dan Family was one of the biggest Chinese family in America, with many elderly people, making their internal politics complex.
Almost every descendant of each branch wanted to become the head of the Dan Family.
Years of power struggles had led to two prominent factions.
One faction was led by Dan Hanjie’s father, Dan Rong. Dan Rong was the head of the previous generation and still wielded significant power.
