The Beauty CEO's Personal Expert

"What’s going on?" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the staircase of the villa. Then, a woman in home attire gracefully walked down from the second floor. Ling Chen glanced up and his gaze immediately locked onto her.

That woman was none other than Nanrong Wanqing’s mother, Jiang Yue’e.

Seeing Ling Chen standing in the living room, Jiang Yue’e’s brows slightly furrowed, and she asked in a tone neither cold nor warm, "What are you doing here? Wanqing doesn’t want to see you anymore. Please don’t disturb her life in the future."

Ling Chen’s lips slightly curved, not even sparing a glance at Nanrong Wanqing beside him, "Miss Jiang, I think you might have misunderstood. I’m not here for her this time, but for you."

Hearing Ling Chen address her as ’Miss Jiang’, a trace of surprise flickered in Jiang Yue’e’s eyes. In previous meetings with Ling Chen, he always called her Aunt Jiang, which felt more affectionate. However, today he used a different address, which felt as if addressing a stranger.

With a quick mental calculation, Jiang Yue’e put away her miscellaneous thoughts and asked, "What do you want with me?"

"If it’s convenient for you, Miss Jiang, why don’t we talk outside?" After speaking, Ling Chen pointed outside and made a ’please’ gesture. Upon seeing this, Yang He looked displeased and said coldly, "Mr. Ling, I think they’ve made it very clear, you’re not welcome here, so please leave immediately. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite."

Hearing Yang He’s words, Ling Chen didn’t even glance at him, instead, he kept his eyes on Jiang Yue’e by the stairs.

"Miss Jiang, I’ll wait for you outside for a minute." With that, Ling Chen said no more and turned to walk out of the villa.

Nanrong Hao looked at Jiang Yue’e and Nanrong Wanqing, then at Ling Chen, who had already reached the door, with a confused expression. He really couldn’t understand what exactly was happening among these people.

Watching Ling Chen’s figure disappear at the door, Yang He said, "Mrs. Jiang, don’t go, there’s nothing worth discussing with someone like him."

"What kind of person do you mean by ’someone like him’?" Nanrong Hao coldly interjected, looking displeased, "Let me tell you, Ling Chen is my brother. If you dare disrespect him, don’t blame me for not being polite to you. Even if you’re really my sister’s boyfriend, I’ll still go after you."

As Nanrong Hao reprimanded, Yang He’s expression immediately changed. He wanted to say something, but considering Nanrong Hao’s identity, he swallowed his words.

"Nanrong Hao, who taught you to speak to your future brother-in-law like that?" Although Yang He was inconvenienced to speak, Jiang Yue’e didn’t need to be courteous to him. "Remember, don’t behave like this in the future."

"What I want to do is my business, not yours. Besides, in my over twenty years of living, I’ve never seen you manage me. In any case, Chen is my brother, I treat him as my own elder brother. Anyone who dares to plot against him, I’ll be the first to not agree." With that, Nanrong Hao stormed out of the villa in anger.

"This child..." Jiang Yue’e sighed softly. Nanrong Hao’s words indeed left her without retort, and it was her biggest regret in her heart.

After hesitating, she looked at Nanrong Wanqing and Yang He and said, "Yang He, stay here and keep Wanqing company. I’ll be out for a while."

To be honest, she didn’t really want to see Ling Chen. However, she couldn’t avoid meeting him. Earlier, when Ling Chen arrived, she expected him to show disappointment and sadness upon seeing Nanrong Wanqing, but contrary to her expectations, Ling Chen’s expression was very calm, as if nothing concerned him. Ling Chen’s attitude made her a bit worried.

Upon leaving the villa, she saw Ling Chen standing on the lawn not far away, with Nanrong Hao beside him, the two engaged in an unknown conversation.

As Jiang Yue’e approached, Ling Chen signaled to Nanrong Hao with his eyes, and the latter nodded and immediately returned to his villa.

As Jiang Yue’e got closer, Ling Chen’s lips curved slightly as he smiled and said, "I thought you wouldn’t come."

"What do you want to tell me?" Jiang Yue’e asked coldly.

"I’m very curious, treating your daughter like this, does your conscience really let you sleep peacefully? If Haozi knew about what you did to Wanqing, how do you think he would see you?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yue’e’s pupils contracted slightly, and she replied coldly, "What do you mean by that? I don’t understand what you’re saying."

Ling Chen shrugged and said, "You’re a smart person, I believe you understand what I meant. The secret base of Netherworld Snake in Tianhai City has already been destroyed by me, and I’m fully aware of everything about you. To be honest, I always thought you were held captive by Netherworld Snake. Until now, I didn’t know that you used to be a part of the Netherworld Snake. Not only that, but you’ve also made significant contributions to them."

"Nonsense!" Jiang Yue’e barked mildly, "I have nothing to do with the Netherworld Snake, and if you’re threatening me with this, you’re greatly mistaken."

Ling Chen shook his head and said lightly, "You’re wrong. I never thought of threatening you. You don’t need to deny what you’ve done in the past; we both know the truth. I just don’t understand why you have to torment Wanqing, forcing your will upon her. If you want to make up for so many years of neglect, you can completely compensate in other ways."

"She is my daughter. How I act is my business, and I don’t need you as an outsider to interfere."

"Miss Jiang, I won’t comment on your past actions, but based on what’s happening now, I look down on you. Having a mother like you is unfortunate for Wanqing. I came to find you today just to advise you to behave yourself, lest you bring the whole Nanrong Family down because of you." After finishing, Ling Chen turned around and walked away.

Watching Ling Chen’s departing figure, Jiang Yue’e coldly shouted, "I don’t need you to worry about my matters, much less my daughter’s. From now on, you’re forbidden to set foot into the Nanrong Family again."

It was unclear whether Ling Chen heard Jiang Yue’e’s words, as his steps never stopped until he disappeared from the entrance. After seeing Ling Chen leave, Jiang Yue’e turned around, ready to return to the villa. However, as soon as she turned her head, she found Nanrong Hao standing not far away, watching her with a complex expression.

"Little Hao, what are you doing here?"

"Mom, I really want to know what conflict exists between you and Chen."

Jiang Yue’e walked up to him, reaching out to place a hand on his shoulder. However, Nanrong Hao stepped back, evading her hand.

This action from her son left Jiang Yue’e slightly stunned. Coming to her senses, she forced out a smile and said, "Little Hao, you don’t need to understand too much about my matters with him. In short, I won’t do anything to wrong you or your sister."
