Kang Jichuan suddenly lowered his voice. "Dad, I know what you're thinking. I have an idea that can change Grandma's opinion of Xi Xi."
Kang Ru's eyes lit up. "What idea?"
"But this idea might… make Xi Xi suffer." Kang Jichuan pretended to be troubled, but he had already made up his mind.
"Let Xi Xi suffer a little?" Kang Ru had a puzzled expression, then he said firmly, "As long as we can let Xi Xi return to the Kang family and return to Y Nation with me to become the noble daughter of the Kang family, it doesn't matter if she suffers. Xi Xi should understand us."
Kang Jichuan was a little uneasy and echoed, "Yes! As long as Xi Xi can come back and reunite with our family, it's worth it to suffer a little. She definitely won't blame us."
They were related by blood, so Xi Xi should really want to live with them. In that case… it shouldn't be a problem for her to suffer a little, right?
Just as Kang Jichuan took a deep breath and was about to say his thoughts—
The assistant rushed in and panted. "Sir, Young Master, um…"
"What's wrong?" Kang Jichuan was a little unhappy to be suddenly interrupted.
"Yao Junjie has returned to Li City." The assistant panted and continued, "He just got off the plane. He even announced to the public that he would be developing in the country from now on!"
Yao Junjie!
This name had not appeared for a long time, but when Kang Jichuan heard it again, it still made his heart skip a beat. A trace of panic flashed past his eyes. "Why did he suddenly come back?"
He was a member of the Kang family who had changed his surname to Yao. Kang Jichuan thought that he was a good-for-nothing, but Yao Junjie had unknowingly taken over Yao Corporation's business. However, Yao Junjie had not been in contact with them for a long time. Both parties were developing their own businesses. Now that he had his own business in H Nation, why did he suddenly return to the country?
Back then, after the old master passed away, the two brothers of the Kang family developed their own businesses. Their family inherited the title of nobility in Y Nation and developed their own company. Yao Junjie's parents had always been managing the company in Li City with the Yao family.
Now that Yao Mengqing was dead, the Yao family's shares were all in Yao Junjie's hands. Moreover, everyone thought that Yao Junjie was capable and had a good character. However, Kang Jichuan felt that Yao Junjie could not be underestimated. He looked gentle on the surface, but there were too many emotions hidden in his eyes. He was like a venomous snake hiding in the dark. He would kill you if you were careless.
Yao Junjie was a person who did not do anything if it did not benefit him. He must have a special purpose for returning to Li City this time.
Kang Ru had always been simple-minded and did not think too much about it. Instead, he sighed. "Junjie's parents passed away a long time ago. He's quite pitiful. It's good that he's willing to return to his hometown to develop. At least, he's very familiar with this environment."
Kang Jichuan's expression suddenly darkened. Did Yao Junjie's return have to do with Qiao Xi?
Back then, Yao Mengqing founded Sunshine in Li City. Yao Junjie and Gu Zheng made a deal. Moreover, the two of them seemed to have been in contact. In other words, they were allies?
The relationship between them was complicated. Kang Jichuan massaged his temples to wake himself up. Although he did not know what Yao Junjie's intentions were, he at least understood that Yao Junjie must be up to something big this time.
What was more important than Yao Junjie was that Qingzhi's body was about to collapse. He had to get Xi Xi's blood as soon as possible.
Kang Jichuan sat by the bed for a while before getting up to go to the study to call Qiao Xi.
At the same time, in Longwan Residential.
Qiao Xi's phone rang. She glanced at the number on it and recalled that it seemed to be Kang Jichuan's number.
Kang Qingzhi was sick, so Kang Jichuan must be very anxious at this time. Could it be that he suddenly called her for…
Qiao Xi instantly understood. Five years ago, her blood saved Kang Qingzhi's life. Now that Kang Qingzhi's illness had acted up again, Kang Jichuan could not help but ask her to donate her blood to Kang Qingzhi.
Kang Qingzhi had schemed against her time and again. Now, she even wanted her to donate her blood to Kang Qingzhi. No normal person would agree to this unreasonable request.
Qiao Xi had already guessed what Kang Jichuan would say, so she did not want to listen to it. She directly rejected the call and blocked his number. However, not long after, the landline of Longwan Residential rang.
Uncle Sheng was the one who picked up the call. "Hello, who is this?"
The other party's tone was clearly a little impatient. "Is Qiao Xi there? Get her to answer the call."
