Three big shots are proposing to me at the same time? Are you crazy?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Huan turned her head and stared intently into Ling Siye's eyes for a long time before shaking her head: "A small fry, I've taken care of him. Don't worry."

Upon hearing this, a hint of sadness flashed in Ling Siye's eyes.

She ultimately didn't trust herself, so she refused to tell herself anything that happened.

However, her next words warmed his heart, and a warm current spread throughout his body.

“That henchman is from Xuandu Temple; he’s a Taoist priest.”

This means that she is willing to open her heart, to share things with him, and to no longer exclude him.

Ling Siye was quite happy about this.

The corners of his mouth slowly turned up: "The Taoist temple... it's alright, I'm here. If you don't have time to deal with the troubles, I'll help you."

Jiang Huan nodded: "Thank you."

As a friend, he is truly a very good friend.

As a boyfriend... he's not bad, but she's really not interested in romance right now!

"Between you and me, do I need to say thank you?" Ling Siye's eyes were full of tenderness as he looked at her porcelain-like face. He couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke her cheek with his index finger. "You don't need to thank me. It's all what I wanted to do."

At first, he just wanted to get close to her and expose her true colors.

However, after spending some time together, he found that he wasn't really interested in seeing her fox tail; rather, he was curious about the limits of her abilities.

He gets distracted whenever she's involved, and he gets nervous if she might be in danger. He doesn't know what's wrong with him; maybe, as Chen Cheng said, he's fallen for her?

Whether he was attracted to her or not, he wanted to be by her side and witness her growth; this was ultimately what his heart desired!

Jiang Huan pursed her lips, her ears felt slightly hot, and she felt uncomfortable all over.

This guy's affectionate look is so convincing, it's hard to tell if he's really serious!

Just then, Qian Rui came running. She noticed that Jiang Huan and Ling Siye hadn't returned for so long, so she brought her people over.

She breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the two were safe.

"Huanhuan, are you alright?" Qianrui asked.

Jiang Huan shook her head. "It's nothing."

Because the people behind Qian Rui were all Ling Siye's people, she wasn't worried about exposing herself.

Qian Rui breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile returned to her face. "That's good! The investigation of the workers has been completed. Several of them said they received money from Da Long and were acting as lookouts for him, but they don't know anything else."

Jiang Huan was confused: "Who is Da Long?"

“Da Long is the one who asked us for the key, the worker who operates the excavator,” Qian Rui explained.

Are the rest of the people suspicious?

"The rest of the people are not suspicious."

"Then send someone to tell the construction team leader to kick out those guys who were keeping watch for Da Long from the team and not to use them again. Otherwise, there's no point in keeping this construction team," Jiang Huan said coldly.

It's hard to guarantee that something like this won't happen a second time.

Fortunately, a clue has been discovered, and there is still a chance to salvage the situation.

If we only discover this after the factory is built, then there will likely be even bigger problems.

"Okay." Qian Rui nodded and turned her head to instruct someone to do it.

By the time things were settled here, it was already evening.

Old Jiang went to meet with old friends, but Qin Wenyan, Li Huaichuan, and Cheng Siqi were all surprisingly present at the Jiang family home.

When the three of them saw Ling Siye following Jiang Huan into the living room side by side, their expressions turned grim. They stared intently at Ling Siye, as if he had stolen their most treasured possession!

Jiang Huan noticed it too, and her lips twitched slightly. She thought to herself, "Should I go back to my room at this time?"

Three women make a drama, and four men make a great drama too.

She would definitely enjoy watching someone else's show.

But now, since this concerns myself, it's best to stay as far away as possible to avoid being affected.

"I'm back!"

"Huanhuan, you—"

"Time to go back to the room!"

Before Qin Wenyan could finish speaking, Jiang Huan, like a shrewd fox, turned and slipped upstairs as fast as she could.

Qin Wenyan: "..."

However, after she went upstairs, Qin Wenyan and the other two all focused their attention on Ling Siye.

Ling Siye ignored the three of them and was about to go upstairs with them when Qin Wenyan called him back.

"Mr. Ling, how about coming over for a drink?"

All three of them were very unhappy.

They were the ones who came to the Jiang family first, but Old Master Jiang only arranged for the three of them to have their rooms on the first floor. Although they were on different floors from Huanhuan, there were still stairs between them. How could they develop feelings for each other like that?

Why is Ling Siye, who came later, allowed to live in the room next to Huanhuan?

Most importantly, why is it that Ling Siye can gain Elder Jiang's approval and have Huanhuan become Ling Siye's girlfriend?

They are Huanhuan's fiancé in public!

Ling Siye knew that the three people were hostile towards him, but such hostility was like a feather, landing on him without causing any noticeable sensation.

He glanced at the wine on the table and scoffed, "I'm not interested in wine."

"You want some tea?" Cheng Siqi looked up, opened his hands which were clasped together behind his knees, stood up, and looked at Ling Siye with displeasure. "Then wait a moment, I'll have someone make some."

Upon hearing this, Ling Siye walked over to them, saying, "I don't want to drink now."

“You…” Cheng Siqi gritted his teeth.

Qin Wenyan tugged at Cheng Siqi, "Sit down, he doesn't want to drink anything at all."

Left with no other option, Cheng Siqi had to sit down again.

Li Huaichuan took a sip of wine, put down the cup, and stared directly at Ling Siyue: "Ling Siyue, the fourth master of the Ling family in Haiyun City, is the youngest person in charge of the Ling family. He is very capable and talented, and no one in the Jiang family can even compare to him. Someone as outstanding as you can easily find a daughter in Haiyun City who is a match for you, Ling Siyue. Why did you come to this small place in Nancheng? Why did you come to provoke Huanhuan?"

They didn't believe Ling Siye was sincere.

Someone like Ling Siye, who came here specifically for Huanhuan, must be secretly plotting something.

They had also wondered if they were after the Jiang family.

But the Jiang family and the Ling family are not on the same level. If he came for the Jiang family, he would be picking up a sesame seed and losing a watermelon, which is not right.

So they wanted to know what he was after.

"Then why did you come to the Jiang family?" Ling Siye sat down, his seat directly opposite the three of them on the sofa.

Cheng Siqi said, "We're different! We all came here to take care of Grandpa Jiang and Huanhuan."

"Oh?" Ling Siye curled his lips in disdain, his eyes sweeping over the three of them. He said indifferently, "You, Cheng Siqi, the Crown Prince of Yanjing, have never lacked for ladies' affections, and you've been a womanizer before. You say you came to Nancheng to take care of Huanhuan, who are you trying to fool? As for you, Li Huaichuan, everyone knows you're not interested in women. Others may not know, but I can find out much more than just a little bit about you. As for you, Qin Wenyan... the young master of the Qin family, a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, you gave up inheriting a century-old business for Huanhuan. Do you really not regret it?"

At this moment, Jiang Huan was looking at the monitoring screen on the tablet with a solemn expression, while Ling Siye's cold words came through the earpiece.

Could it be... that Qin Wenyan and the other two also came with ulterior motives?
