Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: Host, Stop Daydreaming

"I don't know! This hand is big, don't disturb me! I want to win by myself!" At this moment, Feng Juan was completely ignoring everyone's advice, her mind solely focused on the mahjong tiles in front of her!

In the police station, Jiang Shiliang was desperately tugging at his few remaining strands of hair, while Ai Hongcheng, frustrated at not receiving the compensation he was owed, hired a lawyer to take both of them to court!

Meanwhile, Xu Yiru sat in the car with Shang Yunyan, rubbing her foot, and asked, "Mr. Shang, what's your name?"

"Shang Yunyan!"

"I'm Xu Yiru!"

"I know!"

"How do you know!!!"

"I heard those people call you that! Are you okay? Not injured, right?"

"I should be fine, just a scrape and a bit of a sprain, nothing to worry about!"

"That's good! Are you home? Do you have a wheelchair?"

"Who's that weak? A wheelchair is just ridiculous!" Shang Yunyan got out of the car and opened the door for Xu Yiru. She was surprised; usually, it was someone else who opened doors for him!

To prove she was fine in front of Shang Yunyan, Xu Yiru forced herself to put on her high heels and stepped out of the car, but her sprained ankle made her stumble, and she fell right into his arms!

Time seemed to freeze as Xu Yiru stared at Shang Yunyan's chin and Adam's apple. In the chaos, her hands instinctively grabbed onto his arm and chest, oblivious to the fact that one hand was clutching his arm while the other gripped his shirt…

Her face flushed instantly, and the sudden rise in temperature around them, along with a scent she had never smelled before, made their hearts race as they stood frozen!

"Little sister is back!" After what felt like an eternity, Xu Yaotian's voice cut through the tension!

"Ahem! I'm really sorry, Mr. Shang, I lost my balance. Did I scratch you?" Xu Yiru blushed as she pointed at Shang Yunyan's chest, noticing a possible injury through his shirt!

"No, it's fine! Your brother is here; let him help you inside! Remember to apply medicine, and if it gets worse tomorrow, go to the hospital for an X-ray!"

"I know!"

Xu Yaotian approached Xu Yiru, checking her from all sides before turning around and picking her up. He looked at Shang Yunyan and said, "Thanks, man! I'll remember what happened today. If you need anything in the future, just let me know! I'll help you out!"

"…?" Shang Yunyan looked puzzled at Xu Yiru's older brother. Why did this guy seem so street-smart, not at all like a rich kid?

"Host, stop daydreaming. That woman just scratched your chest! Go home and look in the mirror!"

"Hmph! I'm in a good mood today, watched a great show, and it was quite lively!"

"It was lively, but you should get to know that businessman, Ai Hongcheng. He might be of help to you in the future!"

"I got it!"

When Xu Yiru got home, her three brothers and parents immediately surrounded her!

"Sister! Where's Jiang Yuanwei! Where has he gone!"

"He went to the police station with Uncle Jiang and Mr. Ai. I'm not sure what's going on, but it looks like the Jiang family is in trouble! That restaurant is actually demanding 30 billion from Jiang Yuanwei!" Xu Yiru rolled her eyes, thinking that restaurant was more like a world-class artifact exhibition!

"30 billion!" The three brothers exchanged glances!

"Uh-huh!"

"Let me see your foot. Mom saw the video! You weren't hit by Jiang Yuanwei, were you? That kid isn't a man, taking out his anger on my daughter! Show me, girl!"

Xu Daqiang silently glanced at his wife, feeling confused about whether she truly cared about their daughter. If she did, she wouldn't have sold her out because of the Xu family's situation; if she didn't, why was she so angry over Xu Yiru getting hurt?

"Daughter, Dad wants to ask, did Ai Hongcheng ask you anything?"

"He did! When he was arguing with Jiang Yuanwei, he asked who I was! I said I was there with Jiang Yuanwei! I didn't say I was from the Xu family; I couldn't afford that embarrassment! You should have seen it; Jiang Yuanwei was totally two-faced, cursing so loudly, getting more and more worked up, smashing plates and cups in the restaurant, even flipping over Mr. Shang's table! He's really insane!"

"What? Little sister, you mean Jiang Yuanwei flipped over Mr. Shang's dining table?" Xu Yaoyang was stunned, thinking that Jiang Yuanwei must be out of his mind; he didn't provoke him, so why flip the table?

"Actually! It might have something to do with me, because he pushed me, and Mr. Shang's secretary happened to help me up. They thought Jiang Yuanwei was dangerous, so they pulled me to sit at Mr. Shang's table. I wonder if Jiang Yuanwei got angry because he saw I didn't help him!"

"Sister, was that pretty girl who helped you the secretary of Mr. Shang?"

Hearing the third brother's question, the second brother was shocked! What was going on with the elder brother and third brother? Why was everyone suddenly interested in the people around Shang Yunyan?
