Chapter 97 : Family Matters, I Need To Go

Such politeness was not what Chi Yiheng was willing to listen to.

He asked in a strange way: "Are you and Chu Zhaoyang so polite also?"

Gu Nian was stunned for a moment.

She and Chu Zhaoyang really didn't seem to be so polite. It seemed that she relied on Chu Zhaoyang invisibly.

Whether he saved her or helped her, she never seemed to think of drawing a clear line with him.

In the future, she should draw a clear line.

Gu Nian pulled her lips and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Yes, I have to be so polite."

Chi Yiheng was slightly startled, surprised that she would say that. He escorted Gu Nian to the car without saying a word.

Gu Nian chose a quick hotel in the car that was conveniently located and reasonably priced, and paid with her phone first.

*** 

Lanyuan, Chu Zhaoyang's home.

Since Chu Zhaoyang was not at home, Xiang Yulan took Jiang Xiangxue and sat down.

Nanny Yu made tea and brought it to them. There was also a plate of pastries on the kitchen table. It was originally prepared for Gu Nian. It was cut into small pieces and eaten with a fork so as not to break the pastry and have grease on her hands, so Gu Nian didn't have to wash her hands. After all, her hands were bandaged now, which was inconvenient.

But Gu Nian hadn't had a chance to eat it yet.

Nanny Yu sighed and did not give the plate of pastries to Xiang Yulan and Jiang Xiangxue. Instead, she took out some more plates from the pastry box and sent them to the living room.

Just in time, she heard Xiang Yulan said to Jiang Xiangxue: "Unfortunately, Zhaoyang is not at home today. I will call Zhaoyang later and ask him when he will come back. You have nothing to do here, just look around, it does not matter."

Nanny Yu felt something was wrong and couldn't help but reminded her: "Madam, sir, he doesn't like others walking around at his home, especially his study and bedroom. Even Miss Chu is not allowed to enter his bedroom."

As for the fact that Gu Nian went there, let's not talk about it.

Gu Nian was different.

Xiang Yulan's face darkened with an ugly expression: "You don't need to talk about this, Xiangxue is not an outsider! But you are an outsider, and your control is too lenient! Is this how you usually control Zhaoyang in everything? "

Xiang Yulan felt that Chu Zhaoyang didn't like to talk. Even if he was unhappy when something happened, he would usually not speak until he was extremely angry.

Nanny Yu couldn't just take advantage of this and take care of Chu Zhaoyang in everything, thinking that she has a lot of say, so she could be bullying her master!

Thinking that Chu Zhaoyang might have suffered a lot from Nanny Yu, Xiang Yulan felt sorry for his son, her face became even more gloomy, and she said coldly: "You don't need to come from tomorrow onwards, Zhaoyang doesn't need such a self-righteous person."

Nanny Yu's face turned red and white. She gritted her teeth and stood aside without saying anything else.

But she couldn't help feeling aggrieved, her eyes were red and tears were rolling in her eyes.

She works for others, but after working for Chu Zhaoyang for so many years, she also understands Chu Zhaoyang's character and knew something about his past, and she felt sorry for this young man from the bottom of her heart.

Therefore, she never slacked off at work, and she tried her best to take care of him, but she never overstepped her boundaries.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell the difference between Chu Zhaoyang and Gu Nian at a glance. Since having Gu Nian, Chu Zhaoyang's whole aura has become much brighter, as if life had color, and she was also happy for Chu Zhaoyang.

As for Jiang Xiangxue, neither Chu Zhaoyang nor Chu Tian mentioned it once.

It's not good to let people come in and out of Chu Zhaoyang's room casually and ask him to come back to deal with it. It's also her fault for not taking good care of the person.

It was too unpleasant and too much to speak to Xiang Yulan.

"Stop being stuck here." Xiang Yulan said impatiently. She was annoyed when she saw her aggrieved look. Who was she pretending to?

Chu Zhaoyang usually didn't know how to respond.

Nanny Yu's eyes were red and she was about to leave when the doorbell rang.

She went to open the door again and saw Shi Hongze.

Seeing Nanny Yu's eyes were red, Shi Hongze was surprised: "Nanny Yu, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Nanny Yu shook her head and wanted to laugh, but she didn't.

"I'm here to deliver medicine to Gu Nian," Shi Hongze said.

"Miss Gu...is gone." Nanny Yu lowered her head and said.

"Why was she leaving? Didn't she came here to recuperate?" Shi Hongze asked in surprise.

"Who is here?" Xiang Yulan's voice came from inside.

Nanny Yu stepped aside, and Shi Hongze entered the door suspiciously. He saw not only Xiang Yulan but also Jiang Xiangxue in the living room.

The Jiang family also went to Chutian for minor ailments and annual physical examinations, so Shi Hongze recognized Jiang Xiangxue.

He smiled slightly and called: "Mrs. Chu, Miss Jiang."

Why were these two people here, especially Jiang Xiangxue? What was she doing here?

"Doctor Shi." Xiang Yulan's attitude towards Shi Hongze was quite good.

Shi Hongze came from a medical family. His grandfather and father, including several uncles, were all internationally renowned doctors. Although his grandfather has retired for many years, many important patients still belong to his grandfather.

This year, he was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Medicine, and he was the one with the highest reputation for winning the prize.

The Shi family were talented people and were valued wherever they went. Xiang Yulan had always been polite to the Shi family.

"I just heard you talk about some medicine. Is Zhaoyang injured?" Xiang Yulan asked worriedly.

"No." Shi Hongze explained: "This is for Gu Nian. She is injured. I will send her medicine today."

As he said that, Shi Hongze looked around a few times: "Miss Gu is gone?"

Xiang Yulan's expression froze and she asked uncomfortably: "Is she injured?"

Just now, she seemed to see a bandage on her hand.

But her attention was always on Gu Nian's face and she didn't pay much attention.

"Yes." Shi Hongze nodded, "That's why I came to deliver medicine to her."

Xiang Yulan pursed her lips and said, "She's gone. She and Zhaoyang are not related. How can a single girl live in a man's house casually? This is inappropriate and disrespectful. I think, she knew it, and she felt that she was a bit shameless, so she took the initiative to leave."

Shi Hongze lowered his eyes in understanding and said nothing else. He just said: "Since she's gone, I have nowhere to send the medicine, so I will leave first."

He glanced at Jiang Xiangxue again, turned around and left quickly.

He took the elevator down. As soon as he got out of the elevator, he immediately called Chu Zhaoyang.

Chu Zhaoyang had a video conference with several senior executives of the M country branch today. Due to the time difference, it was still a working day there, so he set his phone to vibrate.

Feeling a vibration in his trouser pocket, he was about to take it out and hang up, but when he saw it was Shi Hongze's phone, he worried that something was wrong with Gu Nian, so he interrupted the meeting and got up to answer the phone by the window.

"Young Master Chu, Gu Nian was driven away by your mother." As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard Shi Hongze said this.

It had to be said that Shi Hongze figured out the essence of the whole matter in a short period of time.

Chu Zhaoyang's hand holding the phone tightened, and his fingertips turned white under the force.

"What's going on?" Chu Zhaoyang asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know the specifics. Anyway, when I passed by, Nanny Yu also had red eyes, as if she was scolded by your mother." Shi Hongze said, "I can't ask more about your family's affairs. By the way, Jiang Xiangxue is also at your house."

Chu Zhaoyang: "..."

He had to ask Nanny Yu to disinfect the house when he get back.

"I understand." After Chu Zhaoyang finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Returning to the big screen, Chu Zhaoyang hung up the Bluetooth headset again and said, "Family matters, I need to go. The meeting is adjourned."

Then, he took off the Bluetooth headset and threw it to He Haoran: "Finish with them."

He ​​Haoran held the Bluetooth headset dumbfounded and saw on the opposite screen that several executives from the M country branch were looking at each other.

"Hehe, let's make another appointment to continue." He Haoran looked up Chu Zhaoyang's schedule, "Next Wednesday from 10 to 11 a.m. is fine."

*** 

Lanyuan, Chu Zhaoyang's home.

Jiang Xiangxue sat obediently with Xiang Yulan, and Xiang Yulan asked her to look around.

Jiang Xiangxue hesitated and said, "Let's forget it. If I wander around and wait until Brother Chu comes back to find out. I'm afraid he will be unhappy."

While speaking, she glanced at Nanny Yu, as if she would complain to Chu Zhaoyang.

Nanny Yu was so angry that her heart ached. Seeing how Jiang Xiangxue acted so pretentious and vindictive, and even gave people eye drops when she got the chance, it was strange that Chu Zhaoyang would like her!

If she really marry Chu Zhaoyang, who could have a good life?

Nanny Yu pretended not to see it and took care of her housework with a blue face.

Xiang Yulan didn't insist anymore. Despite the determination and momentum she just told Nanny Yu, she was actually worried that Chu Zhaoyang would be angry. It was just that Nanny Yu interrupted her, and she felt unconvinced. She just want to show her majestic as a master.
