Chapter 343: Heaven’s Favored, Kneeling and Begging for Mercy
When Fu Chen found out that Qiao Xiyan was sending Song Fengwan to school, he recalled that he had threatened him when they first met.
He’s also a ruthless character.
At the thought that Qiao Wangbei had actually brought a knife with him when attending the wedding, Fu Chen suddenly felt a cold wind blow past him, and his scalp went cold.
From the looks of it, when I get married in the future, I have to set up a security check that forbids anyone from bringing knives into the venue.

Nanjiang…
It was getting closer and closer to Song Fengwan’s enrollment date. Even though Qiao Aiyun wasn’t feeling well, she was still busy helping her pack.
Beijing was not like Nanjiang. Spring and autumn were very short. When the cold wind blew, the temperature plummeted. Moreover, winter was long. They definitely had to prepare everything for when she went this time.
Originally, they had agreed to bring only clothes. But in the end, Old Madam Yan had specially gotten someone to make two brand new cotton blankets and even personally sewed two blankets. Song Fengwan originally planned to buy blankets and pillows in the capital, but she couldn’t reject Old Madam Yan’s kind intentions.
Qiao Xiyan looked at the two thick cotton blankets, and his mouth twitched. Are these for me to carry?
Am I really here to be a coolie?
“Xiyan, I’ll be troubling you for the rest of my life.” Old Madam Yan patted his arm. “I originally wanted to make Wanwan a bed cushion, but I couldn’t make it in time. I’ll have to ask you to bring it when you go there again on National Day.”
Qiao Xiyan looked at the blankets and started to worry.
Because she had packed too much luggage, she had no choice but to send it to Yunjin Prime Manor in advance.
A few days later, Fu Chen received a few burlap bags tied up like explosives. I can buy anything in the capital, so why does she have to bring so many things? Is she going to school or moving?
The capital was far from Nanjiang, and it would take two days to go back and forth. During ordinary holidays, Song Fengwan wouldn’t have time to come back, and Qiao Aiyun couldn’t visit her often during this period of time either. She wished she could prepare everything for her. She even made a list of things for Qiao Xiyan, including making her bed and folding her blanket.
Qiao Xiyan finally understood. This family not only treats me like a coolie but also a servant.

Two days before school started, Qiao Aiyun gave Qiao Xiyan a card.
“Aunt?”
“Please bring Wanwan to buy a laptop. I’m not familiar with this thing.” Qiao Aiyun only knew some simple computer operations and knew nothing about computer functions and performance.
Qiao Xiyan stuffed the card back into her hands. “Take the laptop as my gift to Wanwan. Keep the money.”
After the two of them declined several times, Qiao Aiyun put away the card. When she told Yan Wangchuan about this, she even thought that it would be too troublesome for Qiao Xiyan.
“He’s Wanwan’s elder cousin. It’s only right for him to take care of his younger sister.” Yan Wangchuan felt that it was only right. “He’s been working for a long time, and he still has money for a laptop.”
“He’s just like my brother. He’s devoted to carving stones and jade. What money can he have?”
“There was an exhibition in July. A foreigner bought the jade snuff bottle he carved for more than three hundred thousand yuan. There was also a jade belt buckle and a pair of jade door knockers. The price was quite good.”
Qiao Aiyun was stunned.
“The father and son are richer than you think. They just don’t show their wealth.”
Qiao Aiyun coughed twice. “I’ve always been worried that he doesn’t have the money to marry a wife.”
“Xiyan really should get married.”
Yan Wangchuan seemed to have forgotten he married late, and he actually started to dislike Qiao Xiyan for delaying getting married.
“Yeah, my brother doesn’t care about this. He only knows how to carve stones all day and isn’t urging him.” Qiao Aiyun sighed.
“It’s time to get married.”
Qiao Xiyan had come to help, but he didn’t expect his uncle-master to stab him in the back.
Yan Wangchuan turned his head to look at her. His gaze landed on her red lips, and he felt inexplicably restless. Actually, the two of them hadn’t been intimate that many times. After all, they had just started when she got into a car accident. She had recuperated for three months, and then they went to Nanjiang. After all, there were elders and a child at home, so he had to restrain himself a little.
He hadn’t expected this child to come either.
During this period of nourishment, Qiao Aiyun’s face had become rosy. Pregnant women were always gentler than usual. Especially under the warm sunlight, there was even a hint of flirtatiousness. Yan Wangchuan leaned over, but before he could touch her, Qiao Aiyun ran to the bathroom again.
Yan Wangchuan frowned. How many times has it been?
Every time he wanted to get close to her, she would feel uncomfortable and nauseous. It must be the child in her stomach causing trouble.
He frowned slightly, looking displeased.

On the other side…
Qiao Xiyan brought Song Fengwan out to buy a laptop. Because they had done their homework in advance, the two of them went straight to a certain brand and tested the laptop before finalizing it.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll go get a new machine for you two.” The salesperson rarely met such straightforward people. “Please pick a laptop bag and mouse. These are all gifts.”
“Okay.” Song Fengwan nodded. Actually, most of the laptop bags here were grayish-black and for males. There was nothing to choose from.
“Wait for me here. I’ll be right back,” Qiao Xiyan said.
“Okay.” Song Fengwan nodded and looked down at a brochure on the table.
As soon as Qiao Xiyan left, a stealthy figure poked their head out from the side. There were many people in the store, so Song Fengwan didn’t notice anything amiss.
Five minutes later, the salesperson brought the new laptop over and asked her to check it. She then packed all kinds of gifts and handed them to her.
At this moment, there were many people in the store, all choosing computers. Song Fengwan was sitting there, seeming to be in the way. She walked to the entrance with her laptop and looked at the time on her phone. Qiao Xiyan had been gone for more than ten minutes. Why isn’t he back yet?
At this moment, she saw someone not far away.
Xiao Jingan?
Why is he here?
Song Fengwan frowned. Just as she was about to leave, Xiao Jingan ran over quickly. “Miss Song, please wait.”
The last time she had seen Xiao Jingan was on the day he was caught having sex in the coconut grove. It had been almost three months. He was still dressed very neatly like when she first saw him, but the fatigue between his brows couldn’t be hidden.
He was originally considered a proud heaven’s favored, and it was difficult for him to hide his arrogance. But at this moment, it was completely worn away, and his entire body exuded a slick and worldly aura.
“Is anything the matter?”
“I would like to talk to you. Let’s go somewhere else, please.” He spoke very politely.
“Let’s just talk here.” Song Fengwan wasn’t stupid. How could she go with him?
“This…” Xiao Jingan had come to ask her a favor this time. His family’s company wouldn’t be able to hold on for much longer. Not a single bank in Nanjiang was willing to lend them money, let alone other companies. Now, even their houses had been mortgaged. He really had no choice but to come and beg Song Fengwan.
“Huh?” Song Fengwan raised her eyebrows. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll get going first.”
“Please wait a minute.” For Xiao Jingan, with the company gone, everything was gone. At this moment, he could only put down all his pride.
“I would like to ask you to talk to President Yan and ask him to help us on account of the past relationship between our two families.”
In fact, Song Fengwan had heard from Fu Chen that, on the night of the incident in the coconut grove, Xiao Jingan had planned to send someone to secretly take photos of her. If she had been the one to go, regardless of whether they had sex or not…
It would have been a tryst in the middle of the night.
And it would have definitely spread.
She had always been brooding over this matter.
“I’m sorry, but this is Uncle Yan’s company’s matter. I really can’t help you. I don’t have the ability to interfere with his decision. Besides, according to what I know, Uncle Yan isn’t deliberately suppressing you.”
Yan Zhihuan had caused the matter, and the Xiao family was implicated. Although they were innocent, they were actually not good people. No one could be completely inseparable from this matter.
“I know President Yan isn’t suppressing us, but the company really can’t hold on anymore. Only he can help us now.” If Xiao Jingan didn’t have a choice, how could he have come to find Song Fengwan?
He had waited outside the Yan residence for a long time before she was finally alone.
“You should look for Uncle Yan for this. It’s useless to look for me.”
Xiao Jingan gritted his teeth. Actually, after the incident, the Xiao family had looked for Yan Wangchuan countless times. Now, the Yan Group didn’t even allow them to enter.
Yan Wangchuan didn’t like attending banquets and drinking parties, so it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to see him.
Song Fengwan turned around to leave, but Xiao Jingan suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm. “Miss Song, please talk to President Yan.”
“Let go.” Song Fengwan was angry. Why is this person so unreasonable?
She suddenly exerted force and shook off his grip.
“I know that I’ve done a lot of foolish things before, and you’re unwilling to forgive me. But the company will be gone. This concerns the livelihood of more than a thousand employees.”
“I really can’t do anything about this…”
Just as she finished speaking…
Xiao Jingan gritted his teeth and actually knelt in front of her.
The store was already noisy. Almost everyone was watching the show and pointing at them.
Song Fengwan was stunned. “Xiao Jingan, what are you doing?”
“I really have no choice. Please.”
Qiao Xiyan had only gone to another store to pick a tablet for Song Fengwan. When he returned, he saw a group of people surrounding the entrance. He frowned slightly and hurriedly rushed into the crowd…
