Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife

Chapter 454: Preventing Trouble Before It Happens (Second Update)

Back at the apartment, after dealing with Baobao all morning, Ji Rui naturally sent him off for a nap, and even Le Tong was pushed to sleep by Ji Rui.With both of them in the bedroom, Ji Rui was left in the living room. He sat on the sofa with his laptop, checking a few important emails in his inbox.

Ji Rui was so focused that he didn’t even notice when Le Tong opened the bedroom door and walked out. It was only when a steaming cup of coffee was placed on the table in front of him that Ji Rui looked up.

"Didn’t I tell you to take a nap? Why are you fussing over this again?"

He was indeed touched by the gesture of Le Tong brewing rich coffee for him, but more than a delicious cup, he hoped she could rest well, so he couldn’t help frowning and scolding her.

Le Tong didn’t mind his reproach, "I can’t sleep!"

Saying that, she turned to fetch a small can of cookies from the cabinet and placed it next to the coffee, sitting down beside him.

"While brewing the coffee, Senior Brother called, and we chatted for a bit. From his tone, he seemed to be encountering some difficulties. Do you know anything about this?"

Ji Rui’s eyes flashed with confusion, "Really? He hasn’t mentioned anything to me. I’ll call him later to find out."

Le Tong, however, rejected his idea, "No, if he didn’t tell you, he probably doesn’t want to bother you. How about you have someone look into it?"

Ji Rui thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "You’re right, I’ll ask a friend in Beijing to find out what’s going on. I’ll handle it, so don’t worry."

Even with Ji Rui’s assurances, Le Tong still wore a worried look, recalling how Yang Sheng had complained to her about his disdain for his own privileged upbringing.

"Senior Brother..." Le Tong wanted to ask something, but on second thought, felt it was inappropriate to pry into others’ private matters.

"In the previous generation of the Yang Family, there were many brothers. His father was the eldest, but he only had one son, so technically, he’s the heir. A few years ago, he fell out with Old Sir Yang over some matters and started working independently. Now that he’s back, facing exclusion or schemes is quite normal."

Although Ji Rui hadn’t yet looked into it and didn’t know the details, he could pretty much guess the kind of troubles Yang Sheng might face.

In the north, the Yang Family was quite dominant, with almost no other family daring to challenge them. Although Yang Sheng hasn’t been given any title yet, anyone with some sense knows that among his generation, many are useless, and only Yang Sheng has the potential to achieve something significant. It’s for this reason that Old Sir Yang would pull him back after years of being away. No other family would be foolish enough to provoke the future successor Yang Sheng at this moment, so naturally, the ones creating trouble for him are his own family members.

This was the first time Le Tong heard about Yang Sheng’s situation, and after listening, she felt a bit reassured about his predicament.

After all, Yang Sheng is no fool, and since Old Sir Yang wants him back, he would secretly lend a helping hand.o make a call.

"Lawyer Fan?"

"Yes, it’s me!"

"Come to my office tomorrow afternoon, I have something to discuss with you."
