Xie Honghou looked at Xie Yiran’s back and thought of Xie Yiran’s reaction when she saw Luo Guanyu. For a moment, he could not figure out what Xie Yiran was thinking. He wondered what Xie Yiran’s impression of Luo Guanyu would be if she knew that she was engaged to Luo Guanyu. Would she agree to his marriage?

No matter what, if Xie Yiran did not want to marry Luo Guanyu, Xie Honghou would not force her. His only hope was to let Xie Yiran live happily.

Huo Yueshan and Xie Yiran went out together. They said that Luo Yongyi’s mother wanted to see Xie Yiran. It was probably because she was unhappy that they did not show up personally.

Therefore, she wanted to see Xie Yiran in person, so she arranged a time outside to thank Xie Yiran properly.

When she found out about this, Xie Yiran frowned. She initially thought that the matter was over, but she did not expect that Luo Yongyi’s mother wanted to see her.

Luo Yongyi’s mother, who was also Luo Guanyu’s stepmother, was not a simple person. This was the conclusion Xie Yiran came to after seeing her.

In short, Xie Yiran did not want to go initially, but she was helpless. Now, Xie Honghou’s company could be said to be completely dependent on the Luo family. Hence, even if Xie Yiran did not want to go, she had to still go and see them.

Although Xie Yiran did not want to have anything to do with the Luo family, the moment she saved Luo Yongyi, this wish probably could not be fulfilled.

Since things had developed to this point, Xie Yiran had no other choice. The only thing she could do now was to try her best to restrain her hatred toward the Luo family.

Then, she would try her best not to have any contact with Luo Guanyu and prevent Xie Xianyue from living in her house and entering her life.

When Xie Yiran left, Huo Yueshan was still reminding Xie Yiran to be polite when she saw Luo Yongyi’s mother, Lin Youwan. She even told her not to have any bad manners in the Luo family.

Logically speaking, Xie Honghou should have accompanied Xie Yiran and the others. However, the company was really busy and he could not find the time.

In addition, Lin Youwan had invited them to the Luo residence this time. It was not good for Xie Honghou to go as a man. After all, Luo Yongyi’s father was not present, so only Huo Yueshan and Xie Yiran went.

After hearing Huo Yueshan say a lot of things to her along the way, Xie Yiran frowned slightly. She nodded helplessly and said, “Mom, don’t worry. I know what to do. I will definitely be very polite.”

After all, Xie Yiran had lived her entire life. In her previous life, she had interacted with Lin Youwan before. Hence, this time, she naturally knew how to talk to Lin Youwan.

Moreover, Huo Yueshan came with her. Hence, Xie Yiran did not think that Lin Youwan would always talk to her child. She would probably just say a few words and then chat with Huo Yueshan, leaving her aside.

Of course, Xie Yiran was actually willing to do such a thing. Xie Yiran did not want to talk so much with Lin Youwan right now. She did not even want to set foot in the Luo family’s territory.

Thinking of Luo Guanyu’s figure in that place, Xie Yiran felt a wave of nausea. She felt extremely disgusted.

Huo Yueshan held Xie Yiran’s hand and nodded. “Okay, it’s good that you know. In short, the Luo family is a very important partner for your father. No matter what, we shouldn’t cause trouble for your father.”

Huo Yueshan said out loud to herself. It was unknown whether she was talking to Xie Yiran or herself.

Xie Yiran understood what Huo Yueshan was trying to say. Just like what Huo Yueshan said, the Xie family needed to rely on the Luo family now. Once the Luo family was angered, the Xie family’s business would probably be ruined.

This was also a very troublesome matter. Xie Yiran had no interest in these things before, which was why she did not react after Luo Guanyu annexed her company, but it was only after Xie Xianyue reminded her that she found out.

However, it would not happen this time. Xie Yiran felt that if it was possible in the future, she had to think of a way to make the Xie family completely leave the Luo family. Otherwise, this matter would always be a threat to the Xie family and herself.

Sitting in the car, Huo Yueshan looked at the figure that flashed past the window. Her expression unconsciously became solemn. This Xie Yiran was someone that Huo Yueshan had never seen before. It was as if Xie Yiran had grown up in just one night.
