Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Because of Jack, Yun Qing and Ryan had many things to talk about.

It just so happened that Yun Group and Leyuan Group were also working together. The relationship between Yun Qing and Ryan became more and more intimate. The two of them quickly became friends.

The more the two of them connected, the more rumors about the two of them grew within the business world.

One of them was the president of a world-renowned corporation, while the other was the eldest daughter of one of the largest families in the country. She was also one of the most popular women in the modern era.

Many people had high hopes for the two of them. In addition, Jack acted as a catalyst. Many people were saying that Yun Qing was going to become Jack's stepmother.

Yun Qing did not care about these rumors. Rumors about her were always flying all over the place. In the eyes of others, she was just a woman who was surrounded by all kinds of women.

However, Huo Chuan cared.

When these rumors reached his ears, Huo Chuan was furious.

Ever since he separated from Yun Qing, Huo Chuan had gained a lot of love rivals.

First, it was Ye Zhi, then Meng Hong, Sun Chen, and now there was a Ryan who had a child.

It had to be said that Jack was a bonus. If it were not for Jack, Ryan and Yun Qing would not have gotten so close.

Huo Chuan couldn't hold it in any longer and drove to the Yun Group.

Yun Qing was sitting in her office reading the project documents with Ryan when Zhu Zhan knocked on the door and walked in. “President Yun, President Huo is here.”

Huo Chuan is here?

What is he doing here?

Yun Qing was about to ask, but Huo Chuan had already walked in with big strides.

“President Huo, don't you know it's rude to barge into someone's office?” Yun Qing frowned, expressing her dissatisfaction with Huo Chuan.

Huo Chuan did not explain himself, but only gave Zhu Zhan a look.

Zhu Zhan was used to being by Yun Qing's side, so he immediately saw through Huo Chuan's intention. He quickly turned around and left Yun Qing's office.

“What do you want?” Yun Qing did not even raise her eyes.

Huo Chuan sat opposite Yun Qing, looked at her calmly and said, “I want to talk to you about Ryan and Jack.”

Yun Qing immediately grew furious.

She clearly had nothing to do with Huo Chuan, yet she had to endure this possessiveness.

“President Huo, that's my personal life. It has nothing to do with you,” Yun Qing stared at Huo Chuan unhappily and said coldly.

“Don't you want to know about Jack's mother?”

Huo Chuan's words made Yun Qing's hand, that was holding some documents, stiffen.

She was indeed very curious about Jack's mother, but ever since Ryan told her that Jack's mother had passed away, she had never once thought about Jack's mother.

She was afraid that this matter would remind Jack and Ryan of their painful past, so she might as well not mention it.

However, her curiosity was still piqued when Huo Chuan brought up this topic.

“Jack's mother?” Yun Qing asked. “You know about her?”

“Jiang Yue told me.”

During the Yun family's birthday banquet, Jiang Yue had told Huo Chuan everything, but Huo Chuan had never found the opportunity to tell Yun Qing about it.

Jiang Yue?

Yun Qing remembered this name vaguely. She remembered that she was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, but she had been abroad all year and had only recently returned.

The Jiang family had a good relationship with the Yun family. If Yun Qing remembered correctly, she had even played with Jiang Yue when she was young.

So, how did Jiang Yue know about Jack's mother?

“Jack's mother was actually the illegitimate daughter of the Jiang family. At that time, Ryan's family found out about this and sent people to eliminate her in secret. They believed that the illegitimate daughter of the Jiang family was not worthy of their family.”

Hearing this answer, Yun Qing's body stiffened.

They sent people to eliminate Jack's mother?

So Jack's mother's death was not an accident at all, but premeditated?!

“Did Ryan not stop them?!” Yun Qing did not want to believe that the kind and naïve Jack's mother actually left him like this.

“He didn't,” Huo Chuan said. “Yun Qing, Ryan's background is not simple. His family's influence does not end at the borders of his hometown, it even encompasses the entire world.

“He's not as simple as you think.”

Huo Chuan's expression was serious. Yun listened attentively and felt her head buzzing.
