Chapter 566: Chapter 567: The Ambiguity between Liu Ruyan and the Butler
Xia Yangyang had long heard that Xi Jiachen and Xi Jiaxin had lived together for decades without splitting the household.
Xi Jiachen was extremely fond of his younger brother.
It is said that because their parents passed away early, the two brothers have been dependent on each other since childhood.
Although Xi Jiaxin’s abilities were average, Xi Jiachen had nonetheless given him a large share of the company’s stocks to support him.
Also, because of Xi Jiachen’s indulgence in his younger brother, the title of “Second Master Xi” has always been prominent in wealthy circles.
After they entered the mansion, Liu Ruyan gave a brief introduction.
The villa was quite large.
There were over a hundred rooms, upstairs and downstairs.
Liu Ruyan started, “Although this villa is large, most of it belongs to the Xi family’s main house. Don’t be too curious. There are some places you should not go to. Xi Jiachen frequently goes on business trips and is not at home most of the time. He occasionally comes back for a few days. However, his two sons, Xi Yanbo and Xi Yankai, live here. I presume you’ve heard of these two young masters, they have quite a notorious reputation. Keep your distance as much as possible.”
“Thank you, Aunt Liu. I’ll be careful.”
The butler had now come over.
Xia Weiwei was leading the group. The butler greeted her with a smile, “Second Miss is back.”
Xia Weiwei merely snorted without showing a friendly face and went upstairs on her own.
Liu Ruyan walked over, “Han Cheng, this is my ex-father-in-law’s daughter. Arrange a guest room for her. Remember to prepare a wooden bed as she is not used to soft ones.”
Han Cheng looked at Liu Ruyan, “Yes, Second Madame.”
Although he was respectful verbally, he took the opportunity to place a hand on Liu Ruyan’s waist when no one was looking.
Liu Ruyan gave him a flirtatious look, “Has the Second Master’s schedule been finalized?”
“The Second Master won’t be back for a couple of days.”
“After arranging for Miss Xia, come to the study. I have something to discuss with you.”
“All right, Second Madame.”
All of this was witnessed by Xia Weiwei, who had just gone upstairs and was standing in the corridor on the second floor.
This Han Cheng was taking advantage of her mother again.
Speaking of this house, the person Xia Weiwei disliked the most was Han Cheng.
Han Cheng had been the Xi family’s butler for twenty years. His authority within the Xi family was unquestionable, as he was in charge of the entire household.
Xi Jiachen trusted him completely, even Xi Jiaxin had to show him respect in this house.
Xia Weiwei didn’t know when her mother had started having a subtle relationship with him.
Xia Weiwei had confronted Liu Ruyan about it.
Liu Ruyan only said it was for better survival in this house.
But Xia Weiwei felt extremely uncomfortable.
Every time she saw the lustful look in Han Cheng’s eyes when he looked at Liu Ruyan, she felt extreme disgust
However, because of Liu Ruyan, Han Cheng was particularly attentive to her in this house.
Xia Weiwei suddenly had an idea.
Han Cheng let Xia Yangyang wait in the living room first while he arranged for a maid to tidy up the guest room.
Just as he was about to go upstairs, Xia Weiwei stopped him, “Butler Han, I have a favor to ask of you.”
Han Cheng looked surprised, “Second Miss, please don’t hesitate to tell me. As your butler, I will certainly make proper arrangements.”
This Second Miss had always been cold to him, due to her witnessing his relationship with Liu Ruyan.
He had tried to please her in many ways but to no avail.
But today, she was actively seeking his help for something.
Xia Weiwei suddenly stepped forward and whispered a few words in Han Cheng’s ear.
Han Cheng’s face showed a hint of hesitation, “But Second Madame just ordered…”
