Li Xuelan and He Yunlai sat uneasily, their intuition telling them that this visit to Li Yehan's office would be fruitless.

They were determined, though, that they had to achieve their purpose for coming here!

Li Xuelan replied with a smile, "Secretary Zhao, you sure know how to joke. That was a good one; don't do it again next time."

He Yunlai: "We are all family with Ye Han. Seeing Ye Han managing the company so well, we are relieved and happy for him."

"Secretary Zhao, please step out."

Li Yehan spoke, and Secretary Zhao quickly left, closing the door behind.

Li Xuelan lowered her voice and softened her tone, the smile remained on her face.

"Ye Han, I've come to talk to you about that piece of land."

Although you shouldn't hit someone with a smiling face, Li Yehan did anyway.

"The meeting has just confirmed, no extra participants can be added."

Li Xuelan's face instantly dropped, looking very ugly.

He Yunlai was about to lose it, he could tell Li Yehan had no intention of showing them respect, let alone cooperating with them.

He Yunlai asked with difficulty, "Ye Han, we are family, isn't it too much to give a hand to family?"

"It's quite too much."

He Yunlai: "..."

Li Xuelan nearly flipped the table, the old lady full of unused energy, very much wanting to hit someone.

If not for her age, she would have really hit someone, but unfortunately, age restricted her, she feared her bones would break.

"Li Yehan, I am your aunt, your grandfather's own sister, and you're treating us like this! I spoke to you nicely, do you think you're so important! Wait until your grandfather wakes up, I want to see how you can still act arrogantly! I know even though your grandfather has given you all management rights, and you have shares under your name, the company isn't solely yours to decide!"

In the face of Li Xuelan's frantic outburst, Li Yehan remained calm, completely indifferent to these words.

"Then let's talk when the old man wakes up."

He Yunlai was choked, feeling blocked.

"I have other things to do; if there's nothing else, please leave."

Li Xuelan wanted to say something, but He Yunlai pulled her away.

Li Yehan took out his phone to call Nan Qiao, instructed: "Qiaoqiao, if Li Xuelan and He Yunlai come to you, you don't have to bother with them, push everything to me."

Nan Qiao: "They came to see you again? Persistent, aren't they! You've already clearly refused, yet they keep pestering. I'm truly impressed."

"Probably they have nowhere else to go."

Nan Qiao said, "Don't worry, I won't agree to any of their requests on your behalf. If they come to me, I'll surely act ignorant."

Nan Qiao raised her head, stupefied.

"I'll talk to you later, I have to hang up now."

Nan Qiao hung up the call, Li Xuelan and He Yunlai had already appeared before her.

"Qiaoqiao, such a coincidence, let aunt take you to lunch."

Nan Qiao: "..."

No good intention without ulterior motives.

Nan Qiao greeted them with a smile, "Aunt, I just had lunch."

"Then let me buy you a cup of coffee. Aunt has something to talk to you about, can you spare some time to have a drink with me?"

He Yunlai said: "I see there's a café across the street, let's sit there."

Nan Qiao: "..."

Seems like not sitting down today isn't an option.

No matter what, we have to sit down.

So Nan Qiao followed the two into the café.

After ordering, Li Xuelan got straight to the point.

"Qiaoqiao, I never thought Ye Han would change his attitude for you. I thought he'd never find a wife in this lifetime. You don't know how cold he used to be, not giving even family a good face, let alone outsiders."

Li Xuelan continued, "Looks like love truly can change a person."

Nan Qiao blinked her big eyes, giggling.

Li Xuelan: ?

Is Nan Qiao somehow troubled, what does giggling mean, doesn't want to talk to her? Refuses to communicate?

Li Xuelan knows very little about Nan Qiao, unaware of her personality, just taking it step by step.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Xuelan asked.

"I'm embarrassed, shy." Nan Qiao's bright eyes slowly lowered.

Seeing her cute appearance, some of the anger Li Xuelan felt from Li Yehan subsided.

"Qiaoqiao, can you persuade Ye Han for me? He cooperates with outsiders but not his aunt here. He's my family, would I take advantage of or harm him? If it were someone else, could it be the same?"

Nan Qiao: "Yes, Aunt, you are right."

Li Xuelan was delighted, "Qiaoqiao, are you agreeing to help persuade Ye Han for me?"

In Li Xuelan's delighted mood, Nan Qiao shook her head.

"Sorry, I can't do it. Ye Han doesn't necessarily listen to me. He often says not to bring company matters into home conversations. He also doesn't allow me to get involved in his company's affairs, telling me not to ask him about such things."

Speaking, Nan Qiao's eyes got slightly red, feeling a bit aggrieved, and continued, "Aunt, why don't you help me persuade Ye Han instead? We're a couple, why can't I know about the company's matters. Isn't he too chauvinistic! I even want to divorce him, not live with him anymore!"

Li Xuelan & He Yunlai: ??

How did the topic change so fast?

Isn't Li Yehan spoiling Nan Qiao beyond limits?

Why is Nan Qiao now complaining?

Is there something wrong with their approach?

Nan Qiao continued to complain, "Aunt, you know Ye Han's personality. Can a person's personality change so easily? When will I be able to change Ye Han's personality? If this continues, how do I live?"

Li Xuelan: "..."

"Isn't it so bad? Last time at dinner, I saw Ye Han treating you quite well."

"Can outsiders see the family's affairs? Ye Han is good to me, but doesn't allow me to inquire about his other matters. Private life and company matters, I can't ask."

He Yunlai observed Nan Qiao's expression carefully, but found no clues.

From his view, she didn't seem to be lying.

It seems Nan Qiao's life isn't as glamorous as it appears!

Nan Qiao continued, "Aunt, sorry for letting you see this."

"No problem, no problem."

Nan Qiao left Li Xuelan at a loss.

By the end, Li Xuelan began feeling sympathetic towards Nan Qiao.

The kid's fate... seems quite unfortunate!

Li Xuelan started comforting Nan Qiao, and after a long time, Nan Qiao felt even worse.

At this moment, Li Yehan's call came through, Nan Qiao answered the phone.

Li Xuelan and He Yunlai remained silent, quietly listening to their conversation.

On the other end, Li Yehan's voice was domineering and cold: "Where are you? Tonight, I want to have dinner at home; make the dishes I like."

"Okay, do you want fish or meat?" Nan Qiao asked.

"Why ask such a question? Can't you make both?"

"Okay, I'll do whatever you say, I'll head back now to prepare."

Li Yehan hung up the call.

Nan Qiao held the phone, squeezing out a hint of an awkward smile.

"Sorry, I have to go now, my hubby wants fish and meat and wants me to cook, I must prepare it quickly for him to eat at home."

Nan Qiao grabbed her bag and hurriedly walked out, afraid of being slower for even a second, as if anticipating a beatdown.
