Chapter 833: Chapter 0833: You Really Don’t Have This Ability
Ye Xunhuan was slightly taken aback, looking at Jian Yunong with some surprise and said, "Miss Jian, since you want to meet your daughter and have a meal together, you can certainly invite her yourself. With your status, it shouldn’t be difficult to get her to come out!"
Ye Xunhuan was not wrong in saying this; Jian Yunong is the real estate queen of Suzhou, an absolute property mogul, she could have easily used her business status to invite Mei Hanqing!
After all, she had countless reasons.
"It’s true what you say, but if I were to invite her, it could only be under a business context, and even if we meet, we would definitely be discussing work-related matters. It would be completely different if you were to invite her!" said Jian Yunong with a moderate tone.
What Jian Yunong thought was perfectly reasonable and not excessive, considering inviting Mei Hanqing out in the name of business would surely lead to work-related conversations.
But Jian Yunong didn’t want to talk about work with Mei Hanqing.
It’s not just Jian Yunong; probably no one else would want to discuss work, right?
After all, Mei Hanqing had been estranged for over twenty years; it was their first mother-daughter meeting, they wouldn’t even have enough time to exchange pleasantries, how could they be in the mood to discuss other matters?
So, Jian Yunong wanted Ye Xunhuan’s help.
That way, she could completely avoid business matters and have a good meal with Mei Hanqing.
"Mr. Ye, I am not asking as Jian Yunong now, but as a mother asking for her son-in-law’s help!" Jian Yunong looked at Ye Xunhuan with a serious expression, "I wonder if Mr. Ye would be willing to help me, as a mother?"
Jian Yunong had put it in such a way that it would be somewhat inappropriate for Ye Xunhuan to refuse now.
After all, she had helped him in the past!
"Alright, I’ll give you a call tonight!" Ye Xunhuan nodded in agreement.
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Jian Yunong’s face immediately showed a hint of joy, and she said excitedly, "Thank you!"
"It’s nothing!" Ye Xunhuan said softly, "But I am curious, given that you all are so powerful and influential, why did you abandon Han Qing back then?"
As soon as Ye Xunhuan’s words fell, Jian Yunong’s face immediately darkened and looked rather ugly.
Seeing Jian Yunong’s expression, Ye Xunhuan spoke again: "If it’s inconvenient, never mind!"
Jian Yunong took a deep breath, then sighed heavily and slowly said, "There’s no inconvenience, you would find out sooner or later anyway. I might as well tell you now!"
"Back when I was giving birth to Han Qing, it was a critical time when my father-in-law was about to step into the heart of the power pyramid. If he could enter, the Su family could securely enter the ranks of the top families in Huaxia."
"But if he failed, it could destroy the Su family completely; I happened to be unmarried but pregnant with that child at the time, which, even today in a family like ours, would absolutely be a scandal."
"To ensure the old man’s success and the survival of the Su family, I had no choice but to have someone send Han Qing away after giving birth to her. Although I was very much unwilling, I had no other choice. Keeping Han Qing would bring disaster to the entire Su family, not only preventing the old man from advancing, but the entire Su family could also face the danger of being devoured by rivals..."
Hearing Jian Yunong’s words, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but sigh!
More than twenty years ago, not just in a prestigious family like the Su family, but even in a common household, being unmarried and pregnant was absolutely a scandal.
Moreover, Jian Yunong herself was not from an ordinary family!
In that situation, if Mei Hanqing had stayed, not only could the Su family have faced disaster, but the Jian family could have too!
She, Jian Yunong, really had no choice but to send Mei Hanqing away.
Being born into a royal family, being ordinary is wrong, and being born into a royal family when time is running out is even more wrong.
Now, isn’t Mei Hanqing a perfect example of this? 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
She is the apple of Su Bingzhi and Jian Yunong’s eyes, the precious daughter of the Su family, the renowned socialite of entire Suhang!
But what about now?
She’s just a child who grew up in an orphanage, has been relying on herself for everything over the past twenty years, has had to shoulder everything alone!
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan also has no idea what would be best for Jian Yunong.
To say she is heartless, but it was an act of desperation, if the Su family were gone, would Mei Hanqing even be alive?
After all, a toppled nest leaves no intact eggs.
"Do you think I don’t deserve to be a mother?" Jian Yunong looked at the silent Ye Xunhuan and said somewhat self-mockingly.
"I can only say you’re not a good mother!" Ye Xunhuan looked at Jian Yunong seriously and said: "But you are definitely a woman who considers the bigger picture, for the bigger picture, you are ruthless enough!"
"If this were ancient times, you would totally have the makings of an emperor!"
Ye Xunhuan’s words were in fact not wrong. History sees many emperors who sacrificed their own children for their grand ambitions.
"Actually, I didn’t want to do this either!"
"I know!" Ye Xunhuan nodded, "But why did you come to find me only now?"
"You must not tell me that when you abandoned Han Qing initially, you didn’t know where she was being left?"
"What if I tell you, yes, would you believe it?"
"You really are heartless!" Ye Xunhuan heaved a heavy sigh: "Forget it, this is your family matter, handle it yourself when the time comes!"
"Tonight, I will bring Han Qing out for you to meet her."
"Thank you!"
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going back first!"
As he spoke, Ye Xunhuan got up ready to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
"Is there anything else?" Ye Xunhuan turned his head and looked at Jian Yunong.
"Ye Xunhuan, you are the grandson-in-law of the Qin family, I can’t do anything to you, nor can I stop you and my daughter, but if you dare to bully my daughter, to let her down, I, Jian Yunong, will make sure you die from the highest heavens to the yellow springs below!"
Jian Yunong’s face, at this moment, slowly revealed a sinister murderous intent!
Faced with Jian Yunong’s threat, Ye Xunhuan wasn’t angry, nor did he take it to heart, but responded with a calm smile: "You’ll never get such a chance in this lifetime!"
"I also don’t like there being such an opportunity!"
The next moment, as if thinking of something, Ye Xunhuan spoke up again to Jian Yunong: "By the way, just to let you know, I will be in trouble soon, people from Shu Mountain are coming to kill me, I may not be able to spare any attention, please take good care of Han Qing!"
Without waiting for Jian Yunong to respond, Ye Xunhuan spoke again: "And don’t waste your effort trying to help sort it out, I don’t mean to look down on you, but you really don’t have the ability!"
As his words fell, Ye Xunhuan turned around and left nonchalantly.
