Chapter 571: Chapter 570: Grandpa Mo, You’re Too Much Chapter 571: Chapter 570: Grandpa Mo, You’re Too Much Lu Mian sat in the backseat, her gaze sweeping coldly over Mo Si in the driver’s seat.
Mo Si felt a chill at the back of his head and reached up to touch it.
The joy of watching the drama unfold had made him temporarily forget the two bigwigs behind him, as he was focused solely on Ye Jinwen and Ya Ling.
Ya Ling was initially stunned, the scene of the incident vividly etched in her mind, never forgotten.
After a mont, she found her voice again.
Before she could question the matter of the abstract painting, she furrowed her brows and looked straight at Ye Jinwen, her voice low as she began, “Did you know it was back then?”
She had never imagined that Ye Jinwen had recognized her then; she thought he had made that choice out of a sense of chivalry and kindness.
Ye Jinwen rubbed the back of his head, “I guessed, you seed like you.”
Ya Ling’s heart took an abrupt hit.
Just because he thought she looked familiar, he was willing to risk his life to protect her?
“So stupid!” Ya Ling bit her red lip, scolded Ye Jinwen, and then turned and walked away.
Ye Jinwen hastily waved to Lu Mian and Xiao Qimo, “Brother Qi, Little Mianmian, I have sothing to do, I have to go first!”
With the spectacle over, Mo Si reluctantly closed the car window, still lanting that winter was too cold—opening the window for a bit had frozen him to the core.
If his face wasn’t frozen, then the back of his head ached, as though he were carrying an ice block on it.
As he started the car, he inadvertently glanced in the rearview mirror and upon eting Lu Mian’s clear, sharp eyes, he shuddered, and the car failed to start.
“Lu…
Miss Lu, what is the matter?”
Lu Mian leaned back in the seat, casually lifting her eyelids as she spoke through the rearview mirror, “You did well.”
Mo Si: “…”
This can’t be sothing good, can it!
When a woman says sothing, you should listen in reverse.
If Miss Lu says he did well, then it definitely ans he did not!
Instantly feeling guilty, Mo Si’s thoughts turned to the anonymous letter.
He sneaked another look in the rearview mirror, those piercing, clear eyes still fixed on him, no wonder the back of his head felt cold.
With his survival instinct at its peak, Mo Si imdiately spoke up, “Miss Lu, actually I…”
Before he could explain, the scholarly-looking bigwig sitting to the side, looking at his phone, suddenly spoke up, interrupting Mo Si.
As if knowing what Mo Si was about to say, he spoke earnestly.
“Mo Si, I assigned you to serve by Miss Lu’s side, to serve her.
You just follow her orders; you don’t need to report everything to .”
Mo Si: !
I’ve been sold out just like that!
Mr.
Xiao, that’s really harsh!
Lu Mian, of course, knew what the two n were implying, shook her head, and finally retracted her icy gaze.
The humble Mo Si quickly apologized online: “Sorry, Miss Lu, I won’t dare do it again…”
Lu Mian lazily responded with a hum, not bothering to pursue the matter further.
Xiao Qimo, keen on self-preservation, shifted gears smoothly, his legs crossed, he suddenly changed the topic, “However, soone’s attempt to hide her boyfriend’s behavior is not a good habit.”
Lu Mian: “…”
She tilted her body to the side, her posture as sincere as when she had to write a self-criticism back in school, straightforward and direct.
“I was wrong.”
Xiao Qimo: Quite proactive in admitting the mistake.
——
The Shen Family’s stock crashed within a single day, and everyone in Jinjing’s circles knew about it.
Privately, they all understood Mr.
Xiao from the Xiao Family was behind it and no one dared to say anything.
Even Shao Yunxuan knew about this matter and was so frightened that she no longer contacted Shen Yiyao.
If even the Shen Family couldn’t cover this up, what about her?
What was she going to do?
To Lu Mian it was no big deal, not worth ntioning.
What she feared was Mr.
Xiao.
If Mr.
Xiao turned his attention to her, would she still have a way to survive?
In desperation, Shao Yunxuan wracked her brain for a solution.
Finally, from sowhere, she managed to get Ye Jinwen’s contact information and, with trembling hands and her heart thumping wildly, made the call.
——
Ye Jinwen had followed Ya Ling to the hotel where she was staying and kept making his presence felt around her.
This ti he showed improvent, as he had managed to follow Ya Ling all the way to her room’s door.
He was just about to follow her inside when his phone in his pocket started ringing.
After hanging up twice, the other party stubbornly kept calling.
Ya Ling stood at the door with crossed arms, leisurely watching Ye Jinwen, as if enjoying the drama.
Now, for Ye Jinwen, answering or not answering both seed to imply guilt.
In the end, he had no choice but to take the call.
A pitiful and pretentious cry for help imdiately ca from the other side.
“Mr.
Ye, save , please.”
Ye Jinwen was bewildered, “Who are you?”
Ya Ling raised an eyebrow and simply leaned against the wall, silently watching the show.
“Mr.
Ye, it’s Yunxuan.”
“Oh, you’re the imposter,” Ye Jinwen retorted directly.
Bad news travels fast; he was naturally aware of the situation.
Shao Yunxuan stamred, clearly caught off guard.
“Mr.
Ye, out of the acquaintance we share, can you please help ?
You’re the only person I can turn to…”
Help her?
Ye Jinwen felt so annoyed, Shen Yiyao had co to him for help, and now this Shao Yunxuan too.
He was busy dealing with his own issues with Xi Xi!
“Miss Shao, don’t say things that cause misunderstandings.
I have no relationship with you.
I don’t know what you’ve done to need help, but I only have four words for you: don’t bother .”
“Mr.
Ye!
ƝᴑνǤο.сο
Don’t hang up the phone!” Shao Yunxuan beca frantic, “We might not have a relationship now, but that could change in the future.
It’s just a word for you, and I’m really at my wit’s end to have turned to you.”
Huh, her words were getting more and more preposterous.
With a quick glance back at Ya Ling and noting her impassive stare, Ye Jinwen knew he couldn’t hang up the phone yet.
He couldn’t afford another misunderstanding with Xi Xi!
Forcing himself, Ye Jinwen didn’t hang up and asked noncommittally, “What happened?”
“I just want you to put in a good word for with Mr.
Xiao.
I knew about Shen Yiyao hiring rcenaries, but I wasn’t involved at all!
You know I don’t have those kind of connections.”
“…”
He knew nothing!
Don’t make it seem as though they were close!
Understanding the situation, Ye Jinwen rolled his eyes and said, “Do you know what I call Xiao Qimo?”
Shao Yunxuan: “I don’t know…”
“I call him ‘Brother Qi’.”
“That’s great, he will definitely listen to you.
Please, I’m begging you, help !
I’ll do anything you ask in the future!”
Ye Jinwen nearly threw up, and with Ya Ling watching, he felt even less able to clear things up.
Ah, so annoying.
He cut off Shao Yunxuan before she could continue with her more nauseating cajoling, and firmly responded, “Then do you know what I call Lu Mian?”
“Hmm?”
“I call her ‘daddy’!” Ye Jinwen retorted rcilessly, “Asking for help is useless.
With the ti you’re wasting on , you might as well apologize to Lu Mian and make up for your mistakes!”
“…”
“Plus, learn so self-respect as a young lady!
I have soone I like, so don’t bother anymore!”
