Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Her Ambition Suddenly Grows Great

"Don’t think you can use the same tricks on me that you use on Mom. Si Yuhuan has a problem, and this Jiang Qimeng is trying to snatch your man, right?"

It was a man’s intuition. Si Yuhuan’s feelings for his sister had changed, which was why Jian Mingcheng had also changed his stance. But the outcome was not as desired. That was why he entertained the idea of Jian Group breaking ties with Haohan Group.

His own sister, outdone by another woman? This was unbearable!

His good upbringing was the only thing that prevented him from settling accounts with Si Yuhuan. He had exercised great restraint already.

"If she can snatch him away, can’t I snatch him back?" Her eyes shone with a brilliant light.

Jian Mingcheng felt that his sister now possessed an indescribable intelligence and wisdom.

"If Big Brother really has my best interests at heart, then master and integrate Haohan Group’s chip sales and production projects as soon as possible."

"Are you thinking of taking over Haohan Group?" This speculation struck Jian Mingcheng like a lightning bolt.

Jian Xi nodded. He shook his head in disbelief. "This is too difficult!"

"You said it yourself, it’s difficult, but not completely impossible!" Jian Xi smiled faintly, her harmless set of eight white teeth showing, as she made a staggering declaration.

Jian Mingcheng drew in a sharp breath. This time, he truly felt that his sister had changed.

She was no longer that love-struck girl whose heart and eyes were only for Si Yuhuan.

"Okay! Since you’ve already decided, Big Brother will support you with all his might."

With her big brother’s support, Jian Xi left Jian Group feeling much lighter.

Upon returning to the Jian Family Old House, the housekeeper told Jian Xi that Jian’s Mother had taken Father Jian on an overseas trip. Apparently, her second brother had a performance abroad, so the couple had gone to enjoy some time alone together.

She let out a long breath. Only Mom could handle Dad.

While they were gone, she could take the opportunity to renovate the new house extensively.

In the study, as she was drafting blueprints, she heard the doorbell ring.

Wan Yu burst in like a whirlwind. Tossing her suitcase in the living room, she lunged into Jian Xi’s arms for a bear hug.

"That damn Si Yuhuan! I knew he was up to no good! Don’t worry, your sister here let him have it for you. I gave him an earful backstage after the event."

Jian Xi was shocked and looked her over. "He didn’t do anything to you, did he?"

This girl... she was so hot-tempered. She’d dare to scold anyone, no matter who they were.

Wan Yu flinched slightly. "He didn’t do anything to me, but I was a bit shaky afterwards."

Jian Xi couldn’t help but laugh. Wan Yu pouted. Then, as if she’d thought of something, her face lit up with excitement. "Si Yuhuan is definitely in love with you!"

There it was again! Jian Xi couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

She took the glass of plain boiled water handed to her by the housekeeper and pressed it into Wan Yu’s hands. "You’d better talk about something else."

"Believe me! I have a certain understanding of men, and he’s definitely had a change of heart."

Jian Xi pushed a pastry into Wan Yu’s mouth. "Just eat something."

"Jiang Qimeng called him, and he didn’t answer."

Jian Xi’s hand, holding the pastry, paused mid-air.

Wan Yu chuckled. "When a man starts ignoring a woman’s calls, what does that mean? I don’t need to spell it out for you, do I?"

Of course, Jian Xi understood. In her previous life, she had made countless calls, only to be blocked in the end.

Si Yuhuan once said, "I get annoyed just hearing your voice."

Had he changed his mind so quickly? Wan Yu’s words threw Jian Xi’s emotions into turmoil.

Could he also grow tired of his beloved Jiang Qimeng? She didn’t dare to gamble on that, nor could she afford to.

Wan Yu shook Jian Xi. "What are you spacing out for? This is fantastic news! In my opinion, if Si Yuhuan has a change of heart, you two could live happily together. That would be a wonderful story. After all, a top-tier catch like him, a Diamond Bachelor, is hard to find."

"Enough!" Jian Xi trembled uncontrollably.

Wan Yu was startled. "What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Jian Xi fled in panic. It wasn’t that she felt unwell. Rather, memories of her previous life overwhelmed her, and a chilling fear rose in her heart.

Jian Xi drove, not knowing her direction or destination. Wan Yu’s words kept echoing in her mind: If Si Yuhuan could change his mind, you should just live a good life with him.

"AH!" That damned Si Yuhuan! Why did he have to appear in her life and disrupt everything? If she hadn’t fallen in love with him, wouldn’t everything be different?

The car stopped by the riverbank. A young couple walked past her. "Wow, Hubby, this lady’s car is so beautiful! It looks like a limited-edition Porsche!"

"Hubby will work hard and save up money, and when I have enough, I’ll buy you one, too."

The young girl laughed happily. An old woman selling roses passed by. The man bought all the roses she had and then tenderly handed them to the girl. "Honey," he said, "I’m sorry you’ve had to endure hardships with me."

"Nonsense! I’m happiest just having you by my side. No material thing can compare to your sincere heart."

The pair nestled together, sharing an ice cream and cradling a bouquet of flowers. Their laughter and chatter, like silver bells, drifted on the wind across the riverbank.

Their happiness seemed to be bubbling with pink, rosy hues, making onlookers envious.

Night after night, Jian Xi had longed for such love. But with Si Yuhuan, apart from their marriage of convenience, all they had were surface-level appearances.

The cold wind scattered such impractical thoughts from her mind.

Although Wan Yu had brought valuable news, Jian Xi was still certain that Si Yuhuan wouldn’t grow to dislike Jiang Qimeng because of it.

She had seen with her own eyes how much those two loved each other. Relying merely on these recent small ploys to make Si Yuhuan dislike Jiang Qimeng was probably not enough.

Just as Jian Xi was about to leave, Chu Xiao emerged from a nearby restaurant with several businessmen, coming face to face with her.

He looked surprised, then delighted. "Sister, what are you doing here?"

After seeing off his business partners, he quickly rushed over, his smile utterly harmless.

They were both smiles, yet Chu Xiao’s was gentle and healing, soothing to the soul. Zhou Yan’s, on the other hand, was the lively, energetic smile of a sunny young man.

Jian Xi greeted him, "Are you busy?"

It seemed he must have taken over the family business. Otherwise, at this hour, he’d likely be at a bar with some girls, not out here entertaining clients.

"Yeah! Like I said, I want to be first in line after your divorce. I wasn’t joking!"

He lifted his chin. "Soon, I’ll be the CEO of my company. Once I’m powerful enough to contend with Si Yuhuan, I’ll be able to help you, Sister."

Such heartwarming words. He really is a Little Naigou.

Jian Xi offered a gentle smile. "Would you like to get something to eat?"

Chu Xiao’s eyes immediately sparkled. "Can Sister join me?"

She glanced at her watch: 3:30 a.m. I wouldn’t be able to sleep even if I went back now. Jian Xi nodded. "But at this hour, I’m afraid barbecue is probably our only option."

"Great!"

Chu Xiao might be a rich second-generation heir who had lived a privileged life, but he was actually very down-to-earth and not picky about food. He was nothing like Si Yuhuan. Si Yuhuan demanded his food be not only nutritious and healthy but also have a traceable origin and be perfect in color, aroma, and taste. In short, an incredibly finicky, obsessive character.

Why did she have to think of him again for no reason? Jian Xi was so infuriated she wanted to bang her head against something.

"Let’s see what there is to eat!" Chu Xiao flashed his cute canine teeth. "I’ll have whatever Sister is having."

How sweet!
