Chapter 1018: Mo Family Princess’s Marriage [20] Chapter 1018: Mo Family Princess’s Marriage [20] The young girl stepped lightly and quickly merged into the crowd of students wearing the same uniform, heading toward the school.
But after all, she was the Little Princess of the Mo Family, so even just from her silhouette…
Her thick, soft black hair cascaded down to her waist, swaying with a haughty curve as she walked.
She stood out like a crane among chickens.
“Master Xiao, are we heading to the company?” asked driver Liu.
Xiao Yebai withdrew his gaze, his voice calm, “Go to the police station.”
Old Liu was startled, “Is something wrong?”
Why on earth would we go to the police station?
Xiao Yebai said, “Nothing’s wrong, just meeting a friend.”
Old Liu: “Oh.”
He gave him quite a scare…
**
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the police station.
After Xiao Yebai got out, he walked toward the entrance.
Old Liu, a bit worried, didn’t drive away but instead watched expectantly from his spot.
When he saw a tall, scholarly looking man come out and hit Xiao Yebai on the shoulder with a fist…
He smiled, then drove away reassured.
As for the other side…
“You little rascal, wouldn’t you have come to see me if I hadn’t called you? Tell me, when did you return to the country? How’s the Mo Family doing now? I always thought you’d stay in M Country, with your thesis ranking first in the university; didn’t Wall Street send you offers from several companies? And yet you decided to come back…”
Zhan Yao rambled on for quite a while, while Xiao Yebai just lightly pursed his lips, not speaking.
“Damn, I haven’t seen you for more than half a year, and you’re still so tight-lipped, really dull!” Zhan Yao lost his patience, “Speak! What do you have to say to me? Say it and get out of here!”
Xiao Yebai finally spoke, “Help me look up someone.”
Zhan Yao: “…”
He narrowed his eyes, looked around, and spoke in a serious tone, “In trouble? Who is it? Do they have something on you?”
Xiao Yebai looked at him as if he were an idiot, “I’m currently in the Mo Family’s investment department, dealing with some thorny issues in an old case that my contacts can’t resolve.”
Zhan Yao once again: “…”
Damn, your contacts can’t find it…
So you come looking for me?
Although I work in investigations, I’m working for the nation here!
He immediately gestured, “Don’t bring your work problems to me, it was okay before, but now I have a special status and can’t use my position for private matters…”
“It seems like Uncle Zhan doesn’t quite know what job you’re doing in Nancheng,” Xiao Yebai interjected calmly.
Zhan Yao’s lips twitched violently, “Are you threatening me?”
Xiao Yebai said, “No.”
Zhan Yao hmphed.
As expected.
“Just that a few days ago in Haicheng, I ran into him by chance. He told me you were studying for a doctorate in economics at Nancheng University.”
Zhan Yao indeed studied economics in graduate school.
That was also the reason he and Xiao Yebai met.
But when applying for graduate school, he had switched his major without telling his family.
And he had returned directly to the country without graduating, becoming a special police officer in Nancheng.
Zhan’s family always thought he had returned to study for a doctorate in economics at Nancheng University and were comforted that he was so devoted to his studies he didn’t even want to come home. If they knew the truth was not what it seemed…
“So uh…” Zhan Yao coughed twice, “Yebai, let’s discuss this, after all, we’ve been roommates for nearly four years…”
Xiao Yebai: “…”
“Besides, back at graduate school, you were pretty close to me, rest assured, as a friend, I will definitely help you! It’s not just about looking up one person, even if it’s 10 people, no, 100 people, I’d still help you!” Zhan Yao said with a chuckle, “Am I not a good buddy?”
Xiao Yebai nodded, “100 people… I remember.”
Zhan Yao couldn’t help but curse again.
Despite Xiao Yebai appearing always so reticent, initially, he really thought he was just an unemotional cold-blooded creature.
But as he got to know him longer, he was sure, Xiao Yebai was just a sneaky charmer!
And the tricky kind at that!
He just had a quick mouth…
And he actually took his words seriously…
100 people?
Was he supposed to be worked to the bone!
**
Half an hour later, in the office.
Zhan Yao stuffed the printed materials into a folder and glanced sideways at the man sitting on the single sofa opposite him, “Done.”
Xiao Yebai stood up, came over to take the folder, and turned to leave.
“Wait a minute,” Zhan Yao called out to him, “Leaving just like that?”
Wasn’t that…
a bit too much like using someone and then discarding them?
Xiao Yebai asked, “Is there anything else?”
Zhan Yao, “Of course.”
He smirked, all eager for gossip, “Have you seen the news?”
Xiao Yebai, “What news?”
“Are you playing dumb with me?” Zhan Yao scoffed, “What other news could it be? Your Little Princess made the front page headline of the ‘South City Morning News’…”
“That has nothing to do with me.” Xiao Yebai cut in.
“Stop pretending,” Zhan Yao scoffed, “If it weren’t for her, would you have come back from M Country, turning down so many tempting opportunities there, and not having been involved with any other woman these past few years…”
The rest of his words were silenced by the man’s dark and brooding gaze.
Zhan Yao made a zipping gesture over his lips but thought to himself: Could it be that he feels upset seeing the Little Princess dating another man?
After all, the Mo Family’s Little Princess was a sought-after lady, who couldn’t she get?
Although Xiao Yebai was undoubtedly handsome and intelligent, he was, after all, just the Mo Family’s adopted son…
Their social status was indeed a gap that lay unbridged between them.
Unlike that Chu Xiuhuang, a famous rich second-generation from Nancheng, wealthy family, successful in his own right, the Mo family fathers must be very pleased with this future son-in-law…
As Zhan Yao pondered, Xiao Yebai had already hidden the emotion in his eyes, and his whole demeanor returned to the usual composed and aloof appearance.
Then, Zhan Yao stepped forward, and like before, patted him on the shoulder, “Hang in there.”
Xiao Yebai, “…”
As if worried he hadn’t understood, Zhan Yao added, “You’ve just returned to the country, and your career is just starting, but I believe with your capabilities, it won’t take many years for you to build a great business, no less successful than that Chu Xiuhuang. As for…”
He sighed, “Since he and the Mo Family’s Little Princess are in love, the newspapers say their families will soon celebrate good news. Probably by next year when the Little Princess turns eighteen, they will organize a wedding. You…”
Xiao Yebai looked at him coldly, his thin lips curling in a sneer, “They won’t get married.”
Zhan Yao, “???”
Really?
Could it be that…
“Yebai, don’t blame me for not warning you, some things are best left as thoughts, don’t actually go through with them, otherwise, it might affect your relationship with the Mo family fathers…”
At this, Xiao Yebai got up, then turned around, “Ridiculous.”
The office door was pulled open and then shut.
Zhan Yao stood there, twitching his eyebrows at those words.
I damn well give you heart-to-heart advice as a brother, and you call me crazy?
