At this moment, Qiao Yujuan also heard Xiao Yichen’s words in the kitchen.
The nervousness in her heart lessened, but what surged simultaneously turned into worry.
Qiao Yujuan made a sumptuous meal for lunch. Lin Wan was delighted and commented as she ate.
Seeing Lin Wan’s happiness, Xiao Yichen was naturally delighted, too.
Lin Wan seemed to be… exceptionally happy today. It… carried a unique happiness for him as well.
“Wanwan, eat slowly. No one will stop you from eating,” Qiao Yujuan said. Then, she asked, “Yichen, you should eat more too. I wonder if these dishes suit your taste?”
“Yes, it’s quite good,” Xiao Yichen answered his mother-in-law politely.
After dinner, Xiao Yichen watched television in the living room while Lin Wan and her mother washed the dishes in the kitchen.
Qiao Yujuan tried to say something to her daughter several times, but after thinking about it, she didn’t say anything.
She wasn’t picky about Xiao Yichen’s ability and materialism, but… she had seen the news some time ago. There was a scandal between him and a celebrity. She was worried about their relationship.
After cleaning the kitchen, Lin Wan held her mother’s hand and sat on the sofa. The three of them chatted.
After chatting for the entire afternoon, Qiao Yujuan had some understanding of Xiao Yichen and acknowledged him more in her heart. However, the worry in the depths of her heart did not disappear.
But even after her daughter and son-in-law left, Qiao Yujuan didn’t ask anything.
Qiao Yujuan thought that her daughter was quite happy now. Her emotions today meant that she had been living well now. Then, she would put away her worries for the time being as long as her daughter was happy.
She hoped that Xiao Yichen would treat her daughter well.
Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan returned to Blue Bay Villa. Just as they entered the villa, Xiao Yichen’s phone rang.
Seeing that it was a call from Luo Zishen, Xiao Yichen immediately answered.
“Brother,” Xiao Yichen greeted.
“If you’re not busy, let’s meet at the usual place. I have something on.” Luo Zishen said.
When Xiao Yichen heard Luo Zishen’s tone, he knew that something serious must have happened.
“Yes, I’ll set off now.”
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yichen told Lin Wan that he had to go out first and asked her to eat alone at home. Then, he left Blue Bay Villa in a hurry.
An hour later, Xiao Yichen went straight to the exclusive private room in a high-class private club under the Eastern Empire. Luo Zishen and Luo Ziyan had already arrived.
“Yichen.” Luo Ziyan’s expression was solemn as he called out to Xiao Yichen.
“Have a seat,” Luo Ziyan said to Xiao Yichen.
Xiao Yichen sat down on the sofa at the side. Then, he looked at Luo Zishen and Luo Ziyan and asked, “What happened?”
“Something has happened to the Luo Group,” Luo Zishen said.
With his words, the atmosphere in the private room became exceptionally cold.
Xiao Yichen frowned while his thoughts were constantly changing.
“Is it very serious?” Xiao Yichen asked. There was no emotion in his voice.
“Yes.” Luo Zishen nodded. “All the Luo Group’s projects in Europe have encountered financial difficulties. The ongoing projects have no choice but to stop.”
“Man-made reasons?” Xiao Yichen asked, but he already had a guess.
All the projects in Europe? If there were other reasons, it was impossible for all the projects to encounter difficulties at the same time. Then, there was only one reason. Someone tried to make them difficult.
“Currently, it should be,” Luo Ziyan said, “But we can’t find enough evidence to prove that it’s man-made.”
After hearing Luo Ziyan’s words, Xiao Yichen looked at Luo Zishen and then at Luo Ziyan.. “Have you guessed that person?”
