Chapter 486 - 221: Yan Can: If the Two Sisters-in-Law Fight, Who Do I Help?
She asked, "Mr. Yan, have we met before?"
"We have."
Yan Can smiled. "At the last car club meet, Brother Xu’s car was full, and you, Miss Yu, even rode in mine."
"..." Yu Xuan was speechless.
"Later, help me say hi to my sis-in-law. Given the situation just now, it wasn’t a good time for me to say it directly."
Yan Can didn’t hide anything from Xu Yun’s secretary, saying, "That little princess from just now is not to be trifled with, and she gets super jealous. I was afraid they’d start a fight if they found out who the other was."
"..." Yu Xuan was speechless.
’So this Xino is also one of the boss’s women.’
’Just how many other women does the boss have?!’
In the office on the other side.
Jiang Peiyao and Xino sat facing each other, chatting. For the moment, things were harmonious.
Xino asked tentatively, "President Jiang, you’re so young and beautiful. Why would you want to get into charity work?"
"For one, I enjoy it. For another, my man wanted to do some good for society, so he established this charity organization and let me give it a try."
"You just said... your man?" Xino’s voice couldn’t help but rise a little.
"Mm."
Unaware of Xino’s identity, Jiang Peiyao said with a hint of pride, "He’s an exceptional man. He’s the one who founded this organization, using his own money to selflessly help those in need."
Xino asked, "Are you two married?"
"No."
"Then why are you calling him your man?"
Xino said with a serious expression, "President Jiang, if you’re not married, you can’t just say things like that. What if he already has a girlfriend? It could easily cause a misunderstanding."
"..."
Jiang Peiyao wasn’t an idiot; she was starting to see what was going on.
’This woman definitely isn’t here just to make a donation.’
She smiled and asked tentatively, "Miss Xi, do you happen to know Xu Yun?"
"Yes. So what if I do?"
Seeing that she’d been found out, Xino dropped the act and laid her cards on the table.
’Let’s see who’s the bigger woman here today. Who’s afraid of who!’
Jiang Peiyao retorted, "Are you his friend?"
Xino said, "I’m his girlfriend!"
"I’ve never heard him mention having a girlfriend."
Jiang Peiyao wasn’t one to fight or compete. She was willing to be a secret lover and didn’t want to cause trouble for Xu Yun.
But now that someone had come knocking on her door to humiliate her, she wasn’t about to show weakness!
Not unless Xu Yun himself told her to endure it.
Xino: "..."
For a moment, she was at a loss.
When Yan Can and Yu Xuan returned after finishing the paperwork, they saw the unfriendly expressions on the two women’s faces. They seemed to be in a standoff, and the atmosphere had suddenly grown tense and hostile.
’No way, have they been exposed?’
’Do they know each other’s identities now?’
’They’re not going to fight, are they?’
After a moment, Xino looked at Jiang Peiyao and said, "Hmph, you can give up. Xu Yun would never like you."
"Whether he likes me or not..."
Jiang Peiyao shot back, "He and I have already slept together."
Xino was furious. "You..."
Yan Can, standing to the side, watched Xino about to explode and kindly reminded her, "Miss, you only have one good hand to fight with!"
"AHHHHHHH~"
Xino screamed in frustration, her one arm in a sling, then turned and left in a huff.
"Sis-in-law, don’t mind her. That’s just her personality. I’ll be leaving now."
Yan Can said awkwardly to Jiang Peiyao before chasing after Xino.
"He’s Xu Yun’s friend," Yu Xuan explained from the side.
With a complicated expression, Jiang Peiyao sat back down in her chair and said to Yu Xuan with a wry smile, "Miss Yu, did I just cause trouble for Xu Yun?"
"It should be fine."
Yu Xuan sighed and consoled her, "The boss has a lot of women. He probably won’t take it to heart."
"..." Jiang Peiyao was speechless.
Yan Can, having chased after her, shouted, "Nuomi, slow down! Wait for me!"
"Wait for what? Weren’t you just calling her ’sis-in-law’?"
Xino’s expression was dark. "We’ve known each other for so long, and you actually betrayed me for an outsider."
"Heaven and earth as my witness, when did I ever betray you?"
"Just now."
Xino stopped abruptly, turned around, and said, "Tell me, did you already know about her relationship with Xu Yun?"
"I didn’t! I found out today, same as you."
Yan Can said, "I only guessed after I recognized Miss Yu next to her."
"You know that woman too?"
"She’s Brother Xu’s personal secretary."
"He even let her use his own secretary?"
Upon hearing this, Xino grew even more upset and said, "Doesn’t that just prove she’s Xu Yun’s girlfriend even more?"
"Maybe Brother Xu just had her come over to help her manage the charity. You’re overthinking it."
"But you heard her! She said they’ve already slept together!"
"Uh..."
An idea suddenly struck Yan Can, and he said, "Think of it this way. Has your brother ever slept with other women? Does that make all of them your sisters-in-law? Sometimes, it’s just a casual fling."
"But I still can’t accept it."
Xino said viciously, "When he gets back, I’m definitely going to ignore him."
"Right, ignore him."
"And you’re not allowed to talk to him either."
Yan Can: "???"
"Do you agree or not?"
"I agree! I’ll ignore him. I’ll definitely ignore him."
As soon as Yan Can made his promise, he turned around and, before getting in the car, fired off two messages to Xu Yun.
[Brother Xu, that was a close one. They almost started a fight.]
[But don’t worry, I handled it for you. Xino’s just a little mad right now. You’ll probably have to coax her a bit when you get back.]
’Coax her? As if I’d spoil her like that!’
Xu Yun looked at Yan Can’s messages and ignored them.
With a guy like Yan Can there, plus Xino’s personality, it would be a miracle if she were the one to lose out. More than likely, she was the one who started trouble with the other party.
Right now, Xu Yun was actually a little worried that Jiang Peiyao had been wronged.
He took the initiative to send Jiang Peiyao a voice message.
"Did Xino come looking for you just now?"
