Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg-Chapter 824: Trouble Ahead

"Congratulations, Brother Yang!"

"Congratulations!"

"Yes, Brother Yang, congratulations to you!"

Though those people were voicing congratulations, they harbored resentment in their hearts.

Mr. Yang glanced at them lightly, feeling quite pleased inside. He liked this kind of situation where others hated him intensely yet couldn’t do anything to harm him.

"Thank you!" Mr. Yang politely expressed his gratitude, engaging in small talk with everyone. He knew their intentions but had no intention of revealing anything to them.

He didn’t want to cause trouble for Jiang Xue.

So, when these people questioned him, he skillfully dodged their inquiries. After sitting for a while without getting the information they wanted, one by one, they lost interest and took their leave.

As soon as everyone left, Mr. Yang immediately asked his son to call Jiang Xue and inform her that someone might be causing trouble for her soon. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Although he hadn’t mentioned Jiang Xue, he knew these people were capable and would soon find out about her.

To prevent Jiang Xue from being unknowingly embroiled in trouble, he wanted to give her a heads up.

Receiving Mr. Yang’s call, Jiang Xue was quite surprised, thinking something must have happened to Mr. Yang again, so she asked, "Mr. Yang, is something wrong?"

"Jiang Xue, it’s like this. The old man asked me to inform you that some trouble might be directed your way soon, so be careful."

"Why?" Jiang Xue frowned. Since Mr. Yang specifically warned her, it likely had something to do with the old man.

However, Jiang Xue didn’t understand why simply treating the old man’s illness could lead to trouble.

"Jiang Xue, there are some things I can’t really discuss with you. Just be cautious in the meantime, and if there’s something you can’t handle, remember to come to me."

"Okay, I understand!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Xue couldn’t help but ponder deeply. Originally, she planned to go to South City in a week. But now that trouble seemed imminent, she decided to go earlier.

So, she called Shangguan Wenbin to ask if he’d be available as she intended to head to South City ahead of schedule.

"Sis, why are you going early? The leave I took is for a week later. If we need to change the dates, it would be quite inconvenient."

"I see. Never mind then." Jiang Xue, upon hearing this, realized that Shangguan Wenbin couldn’t accompany her earlier. To say she wasn’t disappointed would be a lie.

Since the Shangguan Family had business in South City, if Shangguan Wenbin went, he could directly contact the person in charge there. Having someone familiar with the area would make things much easier.

However, if Shangguan Wenbin couldn’t go, she’d have to rely on herself. Thus, after ending the call with Shangguan Wenbin, Jiang Xue went to her parents to inform them of her plan to leave earlier.

Unexpectedly, her parents said the household items weren’t packed yet, advising her to wait a few more days.

Nobody was willing to go earlier, leaving Jiang Xue quite frustrated. She intended to avoid trouble, but now it seemed unavoidable.

She had to figure out another solution. They say knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory. To prevent being caught off guard, Jiang Xue was eager to understand those large families in Xu City, especially those competing with the Yang Family.

Thinking about this, Jiang Xue picked up the phone and called Liu Yongfa. The Liu Family was also one of the major families in Xu City, and if they were willing to assist her, things would get much easier.

Receiving Jiang Xue’s call, Liu Yongfa was a bit surprised and asked with a smile, "Sister-in-law, what prompts a call from you today?"
