After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage
Chapter 214 - Chapter 214 Chapter 214 Are You the Mysterious Number One on

Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Are You the Mysterious Number One on the List? Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Are You the Mysterious Number One on the List? Li Lingyang leaned lazily against the car, a teasing smile on his lips, “They wanted to create a world for just the two of us, so they voluntarily stayed at home.”

“Spouting nonsense?” She knew her children, each of whom found Li Lingyang more distasteful than the last, okay?

Li Lingyang shrugged, “Okay, the truth is that I had Special Assistant Xu take them back to Junyue Mansion first.”

With Chen Bao and Ningning, those two little imps around, he might as well wait for his next life to be with Ning Yichu, so he simply had Special Assistant Xu take them home to play and act as bodyguards.

Yet Ning Yichu couldn’t stop worrying and took out her phone, dialing a number to her house.

Aunt Wang answered, “Lady Ning, as for Master Chen Bao and Miss Ning, they just came back and are now playing a VR game with Miss Doudou.”

Assured that the children were indeed back home, Ning Yichu felt relieved.

She definitely did not want to repeat the scenario of letting the wolf into the house, so she straightforwardly bought the necessary medicine from the pharmacy nearby and then changed his dressing in the car!

Li Lingyang watched her guard against him as if he were a thief, arching his eyebrows slightly. It seemed that his journey to winning her over was still long…

After applying the medicine, Li Lingyang drove Ning Yichu home, chatting offhandedly along the way.

Due to the excessive overtime work recently, Ning Yichu was somewhat tired and unknowingly fell asleep against the car window.

Li Lingyang caught a glimpse of her peaceful sleeping face and unconsciously slowed down the car.

He effortlessly took off his coat and gently laid it over her…

How great would it be if she could always be this quiet?

…

After an unknown duration, Ning Yichu was awakened by the vibration of her phone.

Following the source of the vibration, she saw the black screen of the phone placed between the two front car seats light up.

Just then, a text message caught her eye…

It was sent by someone named ‘President Yu.’

“President Li, some inside staff are secretly investigating your account. We’ve already detained the person. How should we proceed?”

Secretly investigating his account? What sort of secret account did he have?

Li Lingyang saw Ning Yichu awake and smoothly flipped the phone over with one hand, “Awake now?”

“How long have I slept?”

“Not long, less than fifteen minutes.”

Ning Yichu uttered an “Oh,” turned her head to look out the window, just in time for rush hour, the car moving slowly. They had only driven two or three kilometers. It didn’t even feel like fifteen minutes; she would have believed it if he said she had just slept for five!

At that moment, her phone also rang.

After connecting, she heard Xiao Ai’s voice, urgent to the point of nearly crying…

“Sister Yichu, I can’t reach my brother, his colleague said it was while investigating that Mystery Rank One, and then there were no more news…”

In a flash, Ning Yichu suddenly remembered the text message she had seen on Li Lingyang’s phone.

Could that mysterious account be his?

“Don’t worry, I think I know what’s going on. Wait for my response.”

After comforting Xiao Ai a few sentences, Ning Yichu ended the call and turned to stare intently at Li Lingyang.

Li Lingyang also noticed Ning Yichu’s peculiar gaze.

“What’s wrong? Whose call was it, or is someone bothering you again?”

“Heh…” Ning Yichu looked straight at him, “Close at sight, far out of mind!”

Now, it was Li Lingyang’s turn to be confused, “Me? How did I bother you?”

“You don’t know? Let me give you a hint!”

Ning Yichu took out her phone, logged into a certain fish APP, and found that Mystery Rank One, then sent him messages one after another. And coincidentally, every time she sent a message, Li Lingyang’s phone vibrated.

The scene was so quiet you could almost hear a pin drop.

“Mysterious big shot… Li Lingyang, you’ve hidden yourself pretty deep, huh? How come I never realized before that you’re actually one of my fans?”

Ning Yichu’s heart was especially complicated at the moment as she coldly looked at him and asked.

Li Lingyang raised an eyebrow, “Alright, since you already know, then I won’t pretend anymore. Yes, I am indeed the number one on that list. Wasn’t it just meant to surprise you? Now, are you surprised or not, and is it unexpected?”

“Just a scare, okay?” Ning Yichu glared at him angrily, “Li Lingyang, why didn’t you tell me earlier?!!”

She had been suspecting who was so supportive of her all along.

And she was even considering whether she really had such a wealthy fan.

Li Lingyang’s playful demeanor faded, his face took on a serious expression as he earnestly explained, “During that time, you had some misunderstandings about me, not really willing to meet with me. After one delay after another, I simply forgot about it. I didn’t intentionally mean to keep it from you!”

Ning Yichu thought back to how she indeed had serious grievances against Li Lingyang because of Shen Jiangqing’s issue, to the point where she wouldn’t even take his calls.

But she wasn’t someone who couldn’t distinguish between gratitude and grievances…

“The money you gave me as rewards has gone into my personal account, I…”

“I don’t need your money, so don’t even talk about paying me back!”

It was one thing to return the sixty million from the auction, but to haggle over such a small amount was really not giving him any respect!

Li Lingyang interrupted her.

Ning Yichu rolled her eyes, “Who said anything about paying you back? Taking care of Chen Bao should rightly come with child support from you. I originally wanted to say I’d use it to treat you to a meal sometime, but since you don’t need it, forget it.”

“…Damn, it’s like lifting a rock only to drop it on my own feet!”

“Who said I don’t need it? I really need it! As long as you’re willing, I am available anytime…”

Li Lingyang’s gaze was burning with intensity and sincerity as he fixed his eyes on her.

Ning Yichu’s heart skipped a beat.

At that moment, the ring of a telephone suddenly broke the tender atmosphere.

Ning Yichu snapped back to reality, turning her face away.

Li Lingyang’s expression, on the other hand, turned completely dark, his mood souring to an extreme.

Who was so oblivious to timing to make a call at this crucial moment!

They better have a good reason!

However, when he took out his phone, it was only to see his precious son, Chen Bao’s, phone number on the screen…

A vein on Li Lingyang’s forehead pulsed sharply.

Hadn’t he left Special Assistant Xu in charge of the kid?

Why was the child still thinking about calling him at this time? What on earth was Special Assistant Xu doing?!

Actually, Special Assistant Xu was wronged.

Initially, he had indeed captured Chen Bao and the others’ attention with VR games, and the situation was harmonious.

But later–

As soon as Chen Bao had suggested playing hide and seek, everything had turned topsy-turvy.

Doudou’s hiding spot could be found.

But Chen Bao and Ningning had virtually vanished into thin air.

They had almost turned Junyue Mansion upside down and still hadn’t found them!

On the other side.

Ningning followed her brother and hid in a garden within the complex.

Her eyes twinkling, she whispered, “Brother, has the scum dad answered the phone yet?”

“No,” Chen Bao’s eyes darkened.

Ningning was unhappy, “Hmph, it’s so late already, and he’s still with Mommy outside, up to no good…”

“It’s okay, I have a way.”

With that, Chen Bao inserted a small program and then entered Li Lingyang’s mobile number, immediately starting a strategic phone and message bombardment.
