Pampered By All In Different Planes-Chapter 476 - 393: Is the Birth Mother Indifferent like a Chrysanthemum? The Young Miss Turns the Tables with a Reckless Move 33_2

Actually, she didn’t have a particular passion for playing chess, but after having been through several worlds, she inevitably used this skill. With long-term practice, her game had become increasingly exquisite, to the point where even top professional players found it difficult to contend with her for hours on end.

But Su Zhiruan herself knew that she had honed her chess-playing abilities over a long period of training, whereas Xie Yanshang’s work kept him very busy every day, shuttling between the Traditional Chinese Hospital and the company. To have such skill in chess could really be considered genius.

Su Zhiruan didn’t place much importance on winning or losing at chess. Her style of play was confident and relaxed. In contrast, Xie Yanshang played in a bold and unrestrained manner, like wild grass bending in a strong wind.

After a game, Su Zhiruan played a brilliant move and won the match.

At that moment, Xie Yanshang also generously accepted his defeat. He took a picture of the chessboard with his mobile phone, then took the initiative to tidy up the chess pieces.

"Miss Su has remarkable talent. If you have time in the future, let’s play another game," said Xie Yanshang as he stood up, only to see Wang Ma peeking out from the kitchen.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed when he looked in her direction, Wang Ma hurriedly extended her hand and said, "Young Master, Miss Su’s meal is ready. Come eat, won’t you? And who knows when Madam will return?"

"My mother had something to do today; she will probably come back later," replied Xie Yanshang, looking at Su Zhiruan. "Let’s eat something first, I hope it suits your taste."

"Sure, let’s eat together," Su Zhiruan said as she followed him.

Their conversation was casual and ordinary, but it caused Wang Ma to sense that something was slightly amiss.

In the past, how could their family’s Young Master treat a girl with such serious attention and care? Not to mention caring for someone, women seldom even appeared around him.

Having worked for the family for a long time, Wang Ma naturally knew what kind of person the young master, Xie Yanshang, was.

The number of girls and young ladies seeking his attention was endless. If he wished, the line of people pursuing him could extend from here to overseas.

But for years, he had remained single, always too busy, elusive as a dragon. Even on his days off, the number of times Wang Ma saw Xie Yanshang could be counted on one hand, which showed just how busy he was! Thinking this, Wang Ma stealthily pulled out her cell phone and, while hiding in the kitchen, sent another message to the person on the other end.

Su Zhiruan and Xie Yanshang settled down to eat at the dining table. Su Zhiruan wasn’t very picky about food and ate a good amount, especially as Wang Ma’s cooking was indeed delicious.

After the meal, Xie Yanshang promptly said, "While you were asleep earlier, I found a bedroom for you. Come and see if you like it. If not, I can find you another one; we have plenty of rooms in the house."

Without any objections, Su Zhiruan followed him upstairs to look at the room.

Unseen by them, Wang Ma took out her phone and quickly snapped a photo of their retreating figures. Her phone’s camera quality was not very good, resulting in some blur, but even with just a simple photo, the main characters in it were clearly Su Zhiruan and Xie Yanshang.

Wang Ma quietly opened the photo she had taken. While it was blurry, Xie Yanshang’s distinguished temperament stood out. He was tall and had long legs, dressed in a black suit, and the girl beside him was in a school uniform, her ponytail showing off a snow-white and beautiful neck.

The two of them walking side by side, obscured by the stair railing, appeared from this angle as if they were holding hands.

Wang Ma’s heart raced as she licked her lips and quickly opened the WeChat interface, clicking on a contact. She sent the photo and typed a message.

["This is the girl that Xie Yanshang brought home today. There must be more to their relationship. If there’s anything else you need me to do, Vice President Xie, just command me,"]

It took a while for the person with the black avatar to reply.

["The money has been transferred to your card. Continue to monitor the two of them."]

Wang Ma quickly looked around before excitedly putting away her phone.

The person on the other end was not Xie Yanshang’s father, but a member of a collateral branch of the Xie family.

Strictly speaking, he was Xie Yanshang’s second uncle. He was ambitious and had been unhappy when Xie Yanshang’s father successfully took over the company. He felt he deserved the position, but no one listened to his nonsense, and the matter eventually blew over.
