However, after hanging up, his subordinate was dumbfounded.
Search the entire city in a day?
B City was so big, and he wasn’t a radar.
“Forget it, I should pack up and get ready to scram.”
In the SVIP room.
Lu Haiqiao looked at Xu Duo strangely. “Why? Do you know him?”
Xu Duo laughed dryly, and her expression changed from deliberate astonishment to calm. “Who is he?”
The name was a little familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had heard it before.
Lu Haiqiao looked up at the ceiling and said, “Xie Xuan from the Xie family.”
Xu Duo’s shocked voice began to tremble. “You, you, you’re talking about Xie
Xuan. Is, is he the grandson of the richest man in B City, Xie Guangde?”
At this moment, the dishes were served. Lu Haiqiao picked up a piece of bitter gourd and stuffed it into her mouth.
Afterward, she nodded calmly. “Yes, it’s him.”
“Wow, the Xie family. Baby, you’re rich!” Xu Duo nudged her with her elbow. “The grandson of the richest man. He has so much money that he won’t be able to finish spending it in a few lifetimes!”
Meeting Lu Haiqiao’s playful gaze, she smiled obsequiously. “Of course. I know you have money that can’t be used up in dozens of lifetimes. “By the way, Haiqiao, I’ve heard some things about your boyfriend.”
This was what her gossipy father had said.
Lu Haiqiao raised her eyebrows. “Huh?”
As Xu Duo chewed on the beef ball, she said, “I heard that he’s been in poor health since he was young, so Old Master Xie protected him from outsiders. He was afraid that there would be some bacteria or virus that would make their grandson fall sick. Because of this, the Xie family has 20 to 30 air purifiers in the living room alone, and they’re the most advanced models.
“The vegetables, meat, and fruits he usually eats are checked by special people. They don’t dare to be careless at all.
“But it’s no wonder. He’s the heir to the estate set by the old man. It’s normal to be more careful.
Lu Haiqiao was speechless.
Xie Xuan had been… unwell since he was young?
Who spread these rumors?
“Also,” Xu Duo continued, “although everyone knows that Xie Xuan will inherit the Xie family’s assets, once people stand on high ground, there will always be people below who are unconvinced. This person is Xie Xuan’s aunt, Xie
Shengnan.”
Xie Shengnan?
Lu Haiqiao thought for a while before remembering that it was the one who held the art exhibition at the Double X Art Center.
“Speaking of this Xie Shengnan…” Xu Duo clicked her tongue in an old-fashioned manner. “She’s a powerful woman. She’s scheming, capable, and ambitious. She’s not easy to deal with.”
As she spoke, she patted Lu Haiqiao’s shoulder. “So, Sister, after you join the Xie family, you’ll have to fend for yourself in the future.”
Lu Haiqiao smiled and didn’t reply.
If that day really came, she wouldn’t be the one who was worried.
At two o’clock in the afternoon, the third part of the meeting ended.
As soon as he walked out of the business hall, Xie Xuan heard Xie Er’s report.
“Boss, according to the news from Xie San this morning, Mr. Zheng is sending people to investigate Miss Lu.”
At this moment, Xie Xuan was wearing a pair of glasses. His well-tailored black custom-made suit exuded a cold and noble aura.
Hearing this, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. The yellow light from the crystal lamp hanging from the ceiling shone into the lens, reflecting a cold light.
“Does he have a death wish?” The simple question was filled with undisguised killing intent..
