The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 753 - 751: Truly Ruthless

"Aunt, long time no see!" Tong Ji Yuan stood in front of her, his tall figure enveloping her entirely. He smiled faintly, his expression remarkably similar to his father’s in his younger days, causing Tong Songlin to momentarily lose herself in thought.

"It’s been so many years, and you’ve finally returned to the country. Why didn’t you let your nephew know? I could have come to pick you up!"

Tong Songlin finally came back to her senses and asked coldly, "Did Ning Zeyan tell you I returned to the country?"

"To be precise, I told him! He wants to marry my cousin, and I gave her an opportunity!" Tong Ji Yuan said casually.

Tong Songlin furrowed her brows, "I returned secretly this time just to take Xi Yao back to Paris. I will leave immediately, so there was no need for you to know."

"Aunt, how can you be so ungrateful?" Tong Ji Yuan chuckled, "Have you forgotten how I helped you back then? Now I’ve encountered a situation where I need your help!"

"Is that so?" Tong Songlin asked lightly and then headed towards the ward, "As far as I know, you are making a big name for yourself in politics. What trouble could you be facing?"

Tong Ji Yuan followed behind her and said, "After all, my father died early, and I have no backing!"

Tong Songlin paused, and Tong Ji Yuan continued behind her, "Ji Yang got bored in the entertainment industry and returned. The chief placed him directly into the position, now just below me. It won’t be long before he might surpass me. My father’s death was unjust, and I haven’t even investigated the truth, yet I might also be taken down!"

After a few seconds of silence, Tong Songlin resumed walking, "The matters of the Tong Family are no longer my concern!"

Tong Ji Yuan stood still, his expression turning cold, and he let out a cold laugh.

Entering the ward, Tong Songlin saw Ning Zeyan still standing vigil and said lightly, "You can leave now. I will take care of my daughter."

"Mrs. Gu, I hope you can give Xi Yao and me a chance..."

"Xi Yao!" She directly ignored Ning Zeyan and said to Gu Xiyao, "Tell your mother, do you really want to marry him?"

Her expression carried a bit of coldness. Gu Xiyao shrank back slightly, fully aware of what her mother’s expression signified. Even if she was reluctant, she dared not say more. Besides, if she truly was willing to marry Ning Zeyan, she would be crazy!

"Mother, I will listen to you!"

Hearing her relent, Ning Zeyan furrowed his brow.

Tong Songlin smiled, "I knew you were a good daughter to your mother! Now, I will arrange for you to be transferred back to Paris immediately to be cared for by the Gu Family’s private doctor." She turned to Ning Zeyan, who was visibly anxious, and said, "You say you’ve waited for Xi Yao for six years and are sincere. I think you won’t mind waiting a bit longer to show my daughter your sincerity, right? Otherwise, how can you feel assured marrying her like this?"

"I...!"

"Aunt is testing you, Young Master Ning!" Tong Ji Yuan said lazily from the doorway, which silenced Ning Zeyan.

Tong Ji Yuan walked in and said, "Aunt, why the rush to return to Paris? If you’re not assured of the doctors here, the Tong Family also has private doctors."

"Ji Yuan, do you not understand what I mean?" Tong Songlin looked at him lightly.

Tong Ji Yuan raised his eyebrows, "I just wanted to make another effort! Seeing that aunt is indeed resolute." His face showed a faint coldness, "Then we won’t disturb you today. Wishing you a speedy recovery, cousin!"

He said this, and only then did Ning Zeyan leave with him. Once outside the ward, Ning Zeyan asked, "Young Master Tong, what does Mrs. Gu mean by all this?"

"The literal meaning. She’s been hiding abroad for so many years, as if evaporated from the world. Now, wanting her to come forward might not be that simple. Since she doesn’t want to herself, we might as well help her." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

A slight smile appeared on Ning Zeyan’s face, "I understand!"

"Good, getting Gu Xiyao is a beneficial thing for both of us!" After saying this, Tong Ji Yuan left without looking back.

"Truly ruthless!" Ning Zeyan couldn’t help but sigh!
