Yan Rusheng looked at that superficial smile on Secretary Liu's face and he felt disgusted . He ignored him and strode off towards his car .
The lights were lit along the way back to the mansion . When the butler saw the car coming, he immediately opened the courtyard gates .
The car swerved and entered the courtyard and stopped outside the steps .
A man alighted from the car . He straightened his back and then glanced at the door . Gloom seemed to be cast on the exquisite features on his gorgeous face .
"Third Young Master . " The butler hurried towards him with a smile .
Yan Rusheng replied coldly, "Is Wen Xuxu back?"
The butler answered, "Missy just got home a while ago . "

Yan Rusheng promptly strode towards the doors and opened it to enter the house .
There was a huge difference in the temperature between the house and outdoors . He started to unbutton his coat as he changed out of his shoes .
"Hahaha, they are so funny . "
Laughter was coming from the living room . Yan Rusheng knitted his eyebrows tightly to this . He peered inside, towards the sofa .
Wen Xuxu was wearing a pink fluffy pajama as she sat cross-legged on the sofa . She was laughing as she held a bowl of fruits in her hand .
She just showered so her hair was still damp . It tumbled loosely on her back, and along with her pink fluffy pajamas, she seemed like a child .
Aunt Zhang was laughing together with her .

Yan Rusheng's expression turned even icier and his hands were clenched tightly into fists . He stormed angrily into the living room .
His aura was too overwhelming, that even Aunt Zhang and Wen Xuxu immediately sensed his presence almost immediately from where they were seating . They turned their heads around .
Xuxu saw him and her jaw dropped slightly . "You… why are you back?"
Yan Rusheng was wearing a glum expression, but he ignored her and continued to march on . He walked past the sofa and never once paused on his steps . He went to the stairs .
"Yan Rusheng!"
Xuxu put on her bedroom slippers hastily and jumped up to catch up with him . She trailed after him and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
He didn't even call back to inform her that he was coming back . Now he ignored her and seemed so aloof . What happened?
Yan Rusheng finally paused and turned his head to look at Xuxu .
Normally when they stand side by side, the top of Xuxu's head would barely reach his shoulders . Now that he was standing a step higher than Xuxu, he was towering over her . From Xuxu's angle, he was peering at her from a lofty and overbearing position .
As she observed the cold and distant expression in his eyes, Xuxu shrunk back in fear . She had a shrewd hunch about why Yan Rusheng was so angry .
Someone must have informed him about the bidding .
If not, he wouldn't have ignored her and wouldn't seem so angry .
Yan Rusheng snorted coldly, "Wen Xuxu, you are really getting bolder and you've learned how to lie . "
Indeed, he knew!
Xuxu bit her lips . "I…"
"What?" yelled Yan Rusheng at the top of his voice, cutting Xuxu's response . "Do you know how much effort and time I've spent on bidding for the land in Haicheng City?"
Xuxu shrunk even more and nodded meekly . "Yes, I know . "
She already expected him to throw a tantrum over this matter, but she didn't expect it to be so sudden and abrupt . It had caught her completely off guard .
Yan Rusheng sneered coldly and lifted an eyebrow . "What do you know?"
Xuxu bit her lip and mustered all her courage to lift up her head . She looked at Yan Rusheng's face which had turned a delicate shade of green . She spoke a little louder, "But I had to think for Flourish & Prosper as well . Flourish & Prosper can't take the risk . "
