Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 795

Based on Qin Jinchuan’s understanding of the Xiao Family’s internal affairs, he had a rough idea of why Old Master Xiao was so insistent.

It was nothing more than to completely sever any possibility of Ye Yuning and Xiao Linye being together!

However, no matter how he schemed, Xiao Shuo consistently refused to agree.

So now, has the target shifted directly to Ye Yuning?

Ye Yuning chuckled. "How could I possibly give up? But Xiao Shuo really proved himself a man this time."

"Hmm?"

"He must have been stubbornly refusing to budge on this matter, so Old Master Xiao is now focusing his efforts on me, trying to get me to find a way to marry Xiao Shuo myself."

Qin Jinchuan was momentarily speechless. Can things even be manipulated like this? Come to think of it, Xiao Shuo used to be someone who could be summed up with a single word: ’coward’. I never expected that on this matter of marrying Ye Yuning, he could actually hold out for so long.

"This Xiao Shuo," Qin Jinchuan remarked, "has truly made people see him in a new light."

"Isn’t that so!" Ye Yuning laughed.

In fact, she had already figured out how to deal with the situation once Xiao Shuo agreed.

But given Xiao Shuo’s current stance on the matter, the countermeasures she had thought of would probably be unnecessary.

Qin Jinchuan took a sip from the water cup before him and then said, "His time in there must have been tough, right?"

Especially since Old Master Xiao himself was also pressuring Xiao Shuo to agree.

And with Xiao Shuo stubbornly refusing to yield, given Old Master Xiao’s methods, even if Xiao Shuo were his own grandson, he probably wouldn’t let him have an easy time in there.

Even so, Xiao Shuo can still hold on?

Ye Yuning replied, "Doesn’t he still have a father who dotes on him?"

Although Xiao Li lacked other abilities, he was quite indulgent when it came to Xiao Shuo.

Xiao Li wasn’t inept, just lacking in real power.

He had probably also informed Xiao Shuo about the current situation outside, which is why Xiao Shuo wouldn’t dare to come out from there, no matter what.

Qin Jinchuan nodded. "True. Xiao Li is very protective. Those pitiful few shares he received from the Xiao Corporation years ago were all spent on this son of his."

"So, no matter what is said now, Xiao Li will protect Xiao Shuo."

Just from the few words Xiao Li had spoken to her today at the Xiao Family home, she could tell that Xiao Li still had some grasp of the current situation.

In such circumstances, if he were to let Xiao Shuo come out from there, then there would genuinely be something wrong with his head.

It would be far more than just being simple-minded!

Ye Yuning’s phone vibrated. She pulled it out and saw it was Xiao Linye calling.

Qin Jinchuan frowned. "What exactly is going on between him and Qi Mulan?"

When they were abroad, he never saw Xiao Linye show the slightest interest in Qi Mulan.

How is it that now, in Upper City, things have actually...?

Ye Yuning shook her head. "I don’t know."

If she knew, she wouldn’t have this attitude now.

Previously, at Shanyu Pavilion, what she had seen of Xiao Linye was merely one-sided.

Now that the reality was laid bare before her, Ye Yuning was truly at a loss for words.

Xiao Linye’s calls kept coming, but Ye Yuning had no intention of answering.

When the third call came, Qin Jinchuan snatched the phone from her.

"What are you doing?" Ye Yuning exclaimed in shock.

Qin Jinchuan glanced at her.

Ye Yuning thought he would help her turn off the phone, but who would have thought he would directly press the answer button.

Ye Yuning’s breathing hitched.

Qin Jinchuan had already put the phone to his ear and said coldly into it, "Speak."

The air instantly fell silent, with only the TSSS of the grilling meat audible.

Ye Yuning’s heart clenched.

Although she and Xiao Linye were currently at terrible odds, she hadn’t wanted Qin Jinchuan to stir things up like this.

Ye Yuning’s grip on her chopsticks couldn’t help but tighten!

Just when she thought Qin Jinchuan was about to argue with Xiao Linye, Qin Jinchuan placed the phone back in front of her.

Ye Yuning raised an eyebrow. That’s it?

"He hung up," Qin Jinchuan said with a snort.

So he’d hung up.

Qin Jinchuan picked up the grilled meat, cut it into small pieces, and placed them on a small plate.

Then he took a lettuce leaf and, knowing Ye Yuning’s preference, wrapped a small piece of meat for her.

As he handed it to her, he even said, "Why do you insist on wrapping it in lettuce? Aren’t you worried about getting an upset stomach?"

In Qin Jinchuan’s mind, all food had to be thoroughly cooked before it could be eaten.

Eating something so raw like this, one could easily end up with an upset stomach.

Ye Yuning said, "This is where you don’t understand, right? Who normally eats several large pieces of fatty meat just like that? Isn’t it too rich?"

Qin Jinchuan asked, "And wrapping it makes it less rich?"

Ye Yuning nodded. "Lettuce cuts through the richness!"

That seems to make a lot of sense, Qin Jinchuan mused.

He didn’t particularly like the taste of lettuce; meat wrapped in lettuce lost its original meaty flavor.

This was probably the main reason it helped cut through the richness.

After dinner, Qin Jinchuan escorted Ye Yuning back to her studio, telling her not to get involved in Xiao Linye and Qi Mulan’s affairs.

Judging by the current situation, Qin Jinchuan felt that Qi Mulan was simply trying to drag Ye Yuning down with her.
