C33 Sudden Contact

Qiao Xi went to work with Shen Yeyan in the morning. Someone asked her to stay by his side as if she was a bodyguard.

He went to the meeting room early in the morning and she waited in the office. Shen Yeyan's office was very large, with a row of bookshelves at the side. She randomly picked a book and sat in the resting area to watch.

Sunlight streamed in from outside the window, falling mottled into the office. She sat in the sunlight and flipped open the book to see the bold and forceful handwriting. It was Shen Yeyan's handwriting.

Qiao Xi once again changed books. She actually found an annotation that he had written. Even someone as proud and irritable as him would quietly read literature. Her heart was filled with astonishment, and she couldn't help but change her opinion of him.

She had read only a few pages of her book when Li Ran's phone rang and told her to go downstairs to the parking lot.

She took her bag with her as she hurried to the elevator. The elevator stopped midway and Shen Yiling came up.

Qiao Xi remembered that the Shen family's two brothers weren't on good terms with each other, and that Shen Ye Ling was not as gentle as he looked on the surface. She subconsciously stood towards the wall of the elevator, which caught Shen Ye's eyes.

"Miss Qiao, are you in a hurry to return?"

Qiao Xi forced out a smile. "Mm, there are some things. Going down to buy more coffee? "

Shen Ye Ling pushed the glasses on his nose, smiling gently, "Yeah, I worked overtime last night, so I'm sleepy this morning."

"Mr. Shen, please take care of your body. It's not good to drink too much coffee."

"Thank you for Miss Qiao's concern. You must also pay attention to your body. After all, if you stay by my younger brother's side, be it mentally or physically, you will be under varying degrees of pressure."

Qiao Xi nodded. "Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Shen. The elevator has arrived."

"See you next time."

Shen Ye Ling waved at her and strode out of the elevator. Qiao Xi suddenly felt relieved and the elevator closed before continuing on its way down.

The Shen family was a big family, and they had a lot of schemes and schemes. Her personality was not suitable for her to get involved in such a complicated environment, so she felt even more disgusted.

The elevator went all the way to the second floor. She jogged to the car and saw Li Ran standing beside the car, opening the door for her.

When Qiao Xi got in, Shen Ye An was in the dim carriage, reading some documents. He quickly signed his name below and handed it to Li Ran.

"We need to speed up the progress of this project, hurry up the construction."

"Yes, Mister Shen."

"Let's go."

His father had passed away a long time ago, and since Old Master Shen was an old man, he had now almost withdrawn from the company's operations. The only one left in the core of the company was Shen Ye Ling.

"Where are we going?" he asked, leaning against the door as they drove slowly into the parking lot.

Li Ran replied, "Pick him up at the airport."

Qiao Xi had a face full of doubt. The people who were able to get Shen Yeyan to pick them up at the airport while he was busy were either people with great power or connections. She was unable to guess which one.

Along the way, Shen Ye An's expression didn't look too good. He didn't even say a word until the car drove into the airport parking lot. Only then did he twist his tie and ask, "They're here?"

"Yes, we should be there soon."

Qiao Xi didn't know who was on the line, but he followed behind him all the way. They stood by the side like bodyguards.

When the three of them were standing at the entrance of the airport, Li Ran suddenly jogged a few steps forward. Qiao Xi saw him respectfully standing next to the wheelchair, and on the wheelchair sat an extremely beautiful woman.

She looked at the noble woman and then looked at Shen Yeyan. They looked quite similar.

"Mister Shen, is she your mother?"

"Doesn't it look like it?"

Qiao Xi wanted to sigh with emotion. After all, she was a rich person, time didn't seem to have left much of a mark on her face.

His mother, Jiang Ying, sat on the wheelchair and looked gently at her son. She hadn't seen him for dozens of days and seemed to be in good spirits. She then looked at the young girl beside him.

She walked around the girl with her sharp eyes. Her looks and temperament were pretty good. It was her son's first time looking for such a young psychiatrist.

"Push me over a bit."

Seeing Jiang Ying slowly approaching, Shen Yeyan's tense face remained unmoved. His gaze fell on her bandaged leg. "It's broken?"

"I'm afraid I've disappointed you. I just twisted it a bit."

"Then what did you come back for?"

"I haven't seen my precious son for so many days, can't I come back and take a look?"

The discord between mother and son spread in the air. Qiao Xi didn't expect that Shen Ye An and his mother would get along in such a way. It was rather unbelievable.

Jiang Ying suddenly stretched out her slender hand to break the awkward atmosphere. "Ye An, come and push me."

The young man who was pushing Jiang Ying's wheelchair opened his mouth, "Madam has always been thinking about Mister Shen. I've come back this time to stay for a few more days."

Shen Ye An's face turned cold, "Do you have the right to speak here?"

The young man's face turned pale, and he lowered his head to the side in silence.

Shen Jingbin's mother looked unhappy. She frowned but did not say anything. Instead, she said calmly, "Let's leave quickly. It's getting late."

Shen Yeyan pushed his wheelchair forward while she and Li Ran walked behind him. His mother was at the back, pushing their luggage as they headed back to the Shen family's old residence in a grandiose manner.

This was the first time that Qiao Xi had come to the Shen family's residence. The car drove into the courtyard and followed the tree-lined road to enter. From afar, he could see that the ancient building took up an extremely wide area.

The car stopped in front of an ancient building. Old Man Shen, who was brimming with spirit, stood on the steps as he stared at them.

Shen Jingbin's mother, Jiang Ying's car was at the back. In a moment, she would be pushed over. Old Master Shen descended from the stairs and welcomed her with a smile.

"It's rare to come back today, so let's all eat here."

Jiang Ying smiled as she looked at the tensed up Shen Ye An and said, "Ye An, push me in. We're eating here today, so the company isn't in a hurry."

Shen Ye An walked over slowly with a sullen expression. Qiao Xi and Li Ran stood together and asked in a low voice, "Shouldn't we leave first?"

Li Ran made a gesture and said, "Wait a moment."

She relaxed and obediently stood to the side.

Old Master Shen's gaze suddenly shifted to her. "It's been hard on you, Miss Qiao."

"It's all right."

Having said so, Shen Yeyan, who had already pushed his wheelchair to the front, suddenly turned his head and said, "Qiao Xi, come here."
