Chapter 51: Lord Five Gets Jealous

 Chapter 51: Lord Five Gets Jealous

The scene suddenly fell into silence.

Yang Bo broke into a cold sweat.

Project U, wasn't that the project that Lord Rong had been evaluating recently? The one he was highly interested in and ready to invest in?

Lord Rong fell silent all of a sudden and asked, "Has the company's computer been hacked recently?"

Yang Bo nervously replied, "No."

Another wave of silence swept over the room.

Yang Bo cautiously suggested, "She doesn't even know me. How could she have found our company like this? Lord Five, maybe it's just a coincidence that she's interested in the same project as us?"

Lord Rong remained expressionless as he typed slowly.

Yang: I believe Project U has a promising future.

Phoenix Sky: You're not bad; you have an eye for investments.

Afterward, Phoenix Sky's profile picture turned gray.

The core team members in the room exchanged bewildered glances.

What did this mysterious Phoenix Sky mean?

Could it be that they were a competitor of the Rong Corporation?

Everyone in the room scrutinized Lord Rong with caution.

This was not good news at all!

At this moment, Nan Huang, holding an antique key, was led by the butler to...

A vintage car parked nearby, a classic antique luxury car in an understated emerald green color.

It looked like an ancestral python, waiting for the queen's favor.

Nan Huang's heart suddenly sank as she looked at the scene before her.

As a young girl, how could she remain low-key driving a car like this?

The butler, Chen, smiled and said, "Miss, you have a discerning eye. You chose this car just from the key. This car is a classic luxury vehicle, restricted to three units a century. Even if it's placed in a museum, it would be surrounded by layers of protection."

"Ten billion..." Nan Huang mumbled.

"Is that very expensive?" Chen the butler smiled, "Not really. It's only around ten billion. Miss, go ahead and take it for a spin. This car is something we all want to touch but dare not. You've got the privilege to drive it."

Ten billion...

"I want to switch to another one!" Nan Huang said firmly.

Chen the butler immediately beamed, "Lord Five said you should drive this one. Miss, go ahead."

Nan Huang firmly handed the key to Chen the butler, "You drive it if you want."

Chen the butler was taken aback, "No, no, I can't. It would cost me my life."

After saying that, he walked away with a straight back.

Nan Huang looked at the green luxury car in front of her, feeling speechless.

There were no other cars around, and this wasn't even her own car. This manual transmission car was just perfect for someone like her, who was technically challenged.

Thinking this, Nan Huang decided to use the antique key to start the car.

Nan Huang drove the python-like vintage car out of the vineyard. Along the way, she could feel the classic elegance and nobility of the car, and although its smoothness and handling were different from modern cars, it was extraordinarily comfortable to drive.

Driving on the road, she truly felt like a queen, and even other luxury cars like Rolls-Royces would give way to her.

Nan Huang had gradually become accustomed to it from her initial discomfort.

Even when she arrived at the high-end villa area where the Song heir's house was located, the security guards at the entrance didn't dare to stop her and allowed her to drive straight in.

She parked the car near the courtyard of the Song heir's house, and various staff members, including the butler and housekeeper, peeked out to see, all looking very nervous.

Wearing a white shirt and black jeans, Nan Huang, who used to appear low-key, got out of the car.

In an instant, she seemed much more approachable.

The Song heir and Song Yan came down from the second floor.

"Miss Ye Nan Huang!" The Song heir greeted her with a smile. "You finally came."

"Mr. Song," Nan Huang greeted him and then turned to Song Yan. "Mrs. Liang."

Song Yan smiled, "If you don't mind, you can just call me by my name. I heard from Young Master that you saved Grandma's life, and I haven't had the chance to thank you yet. Also, about what happened with my husband earlier, I owe you an apology."

Song Yan turned to Song Yan, "Younger Sister, you're both thanking and apologizing. Miss Ye doesn't care about so much."

Nan Huang smiled, "Miss Song Yan, your complexion seems much better than before."

Song Yan's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Nan Huang nodded.

Song Yan and Song Yan exchanged smiles.

Song Yan invited Nan Huang to sit on the sofa, and they sent away the maids and butlers in the villa.

"This is your own home, feel free to speak," Song Yan said.

Nan Huang nodded and then looked at Song Yan. "Miss Song Yan, if you don't mind, could I examine your pulse?"

"What's there to mind about?" Song Yan extended her hand for Nan Huang to check her pulse.

After checking her pulse, Nan Huang furrowed her brow. "Your heart pulse is floating and weak, indicating physical weakness, probably due to long-term consumption of contraceptive drugs, which has damaged your uterus. It's more serious than I thought."

Song Yan worriedly asked, "What should we do then?"

"Let's not rush," Nan Huang said, looking at Song Yan to see what she had to say.

Song Yan fell silent for a while, then smiled. "It turns out that it really was food poisoning."

Song Yan pursed her lips, "Brother, ten years ago, our Song family married you off to the Liang family in good faith, but now, after ten years, Sister has returned like this. Brother, I'm not reconciled, and I'm angry!"

Song Yan stroked Song Yan's hand, "You shouldn't rush. Give Sister some time. Let her see through this family. If they are really as unbearable as they seem, Sister can divorce and return to the Song family."

When men can't be relied on, women have to fight for themselves.

At this time, having a group of family members standing behind her was a stroke of luck for Song Yan.

Song Yan smiled and said, "Miss Ye, we owe you a great favor. Regardless of what happens in the future, knowing all of this early and getting out of this suffering earlier is the best outcome."

Getting out of this suffering? Nan Huang keenly caught onto this phrase.

Song Yan also turned to Song Yan, saying, "Younger Sister, don't worry. Give Sister some time. Let's see clearly what this family is really like. If they are indeed intolerable, I can always divorce and come back to the Song family."

Nan Huang understood that Song Yan was not willing to leave her husband in a rush, but she needed some time to evaluate the situation.

Song Yan suddenly laughed, "By the way, Miss Ye, you've helped me twice now, both times you've done me a great favor."

As she spoke, she took out a jade pendant and handed it to Nan Huang.

"Last time, after you saved my grandmother, she said she must give this to you. It's her heartfelt gratitude."

The grandmother, that elderly lady with white hair?

Nan Huang had always been reluctant to reject the goodwill of the elderly, so she accepted the jade pendant handed to her by Song Yan.

Then she took out pen and paper and wrote down a prescription, handing it to Song Yan. "Miss Song Yan, I'll give you this prescription first, it detoxifies. Use this prescription to cleanse your body of toxins, and I'll come check on you after that. If we work together, we should be able to manage."

Song Yan smiled and said, "Miss Ye, I can't thank you enough for your great kindness. You've gone above and beyond."

With that, everything was settled. Nan Huang was about to leave, and Song Yan asked Song Yan to accompany her.

The Song heir escorted her to the door.

Outside the villa, there was a black car waiting that had been there for a while.

Inside the car, a man pinched his thumb, his face dark and gloomy. The cold aura emanating from him almost froze the entire car.

"Lord Five..." Yang Bo called out worriedly.

Recalling what had happened earlier, how Lord Five had been absentminded in the meeting and had immediately instructed him to track the movements of the python...

Yang Bo had thought at the time that Lord Five's actions were highly inappropriate.

However, when they saw the handsome man and beautiful woman emerging from the villa earlier...

Yang Bo suddenly felt that something major was amiss.
