Chapter 444: Chapter 445: The Woman with an Elite Aura All Over Her
After Xia Yangyang went upstairs.
Liu Ruyan’s complexion changed instantly.
She hadn’t noticed before, this little girl was so astute.
She seemingly didn’t meddle in any affair of the Gu family.
But unexpectedly, she understood everything clearly.
Liu Ruyan sneered, she wanted to sell off her properties and keep Tan Zhen’s house? In your dreams.
This house was actually mortgaged to the black market auction house.
The auction would not be public.
She needed to distract this little girl a bit, to prevent her from becoming suspicious.
Once the house was auctioned off, there would be nothing she could do.
However, she needed to think of something to divert her attention, she couldn’t let her concentrate solely on this matter.
She wondered how this girl was getting along with Gu Qichen now.
If Gu Qichen got involved again, it would be even more troublesome.
After Xia Yangyang returned to her room, she laid on her bed, exhausted.
Her stomach was beginning to feel a dull pain.
This period was the longest she had ever experienced in her life.
And she didn’t know when it would end.
Of course, Xia Yangyang didn’t believe a single word of what Liu Ruyan just said.
She had to figure something out.
She could not let Liu Ruyan secretly sell the old house.
As Xia Yangyang was lying on the bed, her phone suddenly rang.
Xia Yangyang picked up the phone and saw a string of unfamiliar numbers.
Xia Yangyang didn’t want to pick up initially.
But Xia Yangyang saw that the region the call came from was Beijing.
Beijing, she didn’t seem to know anyone there.
Xia Yangyang’s heartbeat suddenly sped up inexplicably.
She had a premonition.
This number didn’t seem to be spam.
Xia Yangyang hesitated for a moment, and picked up the call.
A crisp female voice came from the phone: “Miss Xia? I’m sorry to disturb you so unexpectedly, I’m Xi Zijun, I’d like to meet you.”
Xia Yangyang never thought that the caller would be Xi Zijun.
If it hadn’t been for hearing this name from Wen Xiaochu’s mouth this morning, Xia Yangyang wouldn’t even know her.
“How do you know my number?”
“I have my ways, but I apologize if I disturbed you, Miss Xia. I have something I want to discuss with you… About your stepmother.”
Mentioning Liu Ruyan, Xia Yangyang felt a slight tremor in her heart.
Liu Ruyan had a relationship with Xi Jiaxin, and Xi Zijun is Xi Jiaxin’s daughter.
Is there a connection between them?
“What do you want to talk about?”
“It’s not convenient over the phone, 7 PM, at the Cloud Peak Restaurant, I invite you to dinner.”
With that said, the call ended.
Xia Yangyang didn’t even get a chance to respond.
But the voice on the other end was certain, as if she knew that Xia Yangyang would come.
Xia Yangyang did indeed arrive promptly at 7 PM at the Cloud Peak Restaurant.
The Cloud Peak Restaurant was surprisingly vacant today, quiet, without a single person.
From the moment Xia Yangyang entered, a waiter guided her all the way.
Finally, Xia Yangyang saw a woman sitting beside the window.
The woman was dressed in a fashionable white suit, she looked neat, and eye-catching.
Her hair was perfectly styled towards the back, reaching her shoulders, which made her look authoritative.
Her makeup wasn’t flamboyant but meticulously elegant.
She seemed to be working at the moment, with a laptop in front of her and a headset on, she was in a meeting, speaking fluent French.
The woman, exuding an elite aura, sitting there, seemed like a beautiful scenery.
