72: Chapter 72 News 72: Chapter 72 News Indeed, the person who arrived was Han Ruoyao.
Every time she saw Han Ruoyao’s petite figure inside such a domineering sports car, there was an inexplicable sense of incongruity.
Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence to encounter her on the street.
“Yaoyao, aren’t you going to class today?”
“I don’t have classes today.
Oh, uncle, where are you off to?
Let me give you a ride,” said Han Ruoyao with a smile, while she casually opened the passenger door.
“Well then, thanks.” Although Ye Shikai initially didn’t want to trouble Han Ruoyao, he reconsidered, realizing that it had been a while since he last chatted with this little siren, and after all, he couldn’t hail a cab right now.
The two sat in the car, chatting about this and that when suddenly, Han Ruoyao said, “Uncle, today I went to school and saw that Qingqing seemed quite downcast.
Did you bully her?”
“What?
Qingqing is very downcast?
What happened?” Ye Shikai’s face showed an anxious look, wondering if it was because of what he said to her yesterday…
“I don’t know either.
I asked her, but she didn’t say anything, so you must have bullied her, right?” All of a sudden, Han Ruoyao looked at herself disdainfully, as if she was about to skin her alive.
“Er, I’ll ask her when she gets back then.”
“Yeah, Uncle~~ That Luo Shiqi seems to be after you, right?
She actually bought such an expensive jade pendant for you, really ‘spare no expense,'” Han Ruoyao changed the subject, but what surprised Ye Shikai was how Han Ruoyao could know about this.
Although she could be considered a bona fide politician’s daughter, it wasn’t strange that she knew Luo Shiqi bought this pendant, but how did she know the pendant was meant for him?
After all, Luo Shiqi had given it to him in secret.
“Don’t you watch the news?
I saw it there.” Han Ruoyao rolled her eyes at him, swiped on her phone a few times, and then threw it to him.
“The Yanjing Charity Auction, famous entrepreneur Ms.
Luo Shiqi bid and won the Imperial Green jade pendant, which she gifted to a mysterious man”—as soon as he unlocked the phone, those big characters entered his view, Ye Shikai read it out loud, and after finishing, he was absolutely stunned.
Looking at the attached photo, Luo Shiqi was personally putting the jade pendant around his neck, with a clear image that seemed like a close-up shot taken on purpose.
The most crucial thing was—
Why was only Luo Shiqi’s face blurred with a mosaic, while his wasn’t…
“Uncle, you’re almost a celebrity now, all the high society folks in Yanjing are trying to pry into who you are—to have that female devil treat you like that,” Han Ruoyao said with a sneer, but her tone sounded a bit plaintive; there seemed to be a faint hint of sourness in the air.
It was clear that, just like Su Ziqing, she didn’t want him to get entangled with Luo Shiqi.
Just then, a ringtone echoed in his ears, Ye Shikai signaled Han Ruoyao to be quiet, and then took out his phone to check the caller ID.
“Speak of the devil and he shall appear.” Speaking of Luo Shiqi, and here was a call from her.
“Hello, my dear, did you see today’s headlines?” As soon as the call connected, Luo Shiqi couldn’t wait to chatter away.
“I…
I saw it.
What, don’t tell me you did this.” Suddenly, Ye Shikai wondered if it was Luo Shiqi who had someone take the photo and then posted it online.
Based on Luo Shiqi’s personality, it was quite possible.
“Hehe…
smart, how about it, are the photos clear?” Luo Shiqi’s silky laughter came through the phone, making Han Ruoyao’s skin crawl.
“Damn it, do you know you’re going to get me killed?” Ye Shikai couldn’t help but curse.
If Su Qingyu saw that photo, then he would be…
“I’m starting to chase you, you know.
What do you think, has Su Qingyu seen it?
Are you excited?” Luo Shiqi loved to stir up trouble and seemed to have never kept quiet about anything since he’d known her.
“Don’t mess around, where are you now?
I’m coming to you.” Ye Shikai became impatient this time.
The internet these days could do anything, capable of people-searching and finding anything, let alone his own photo.
Although he believed that the things from overseas and his relationship with Su Qingyu couldn’t be found out, all his other information was probably already unearthed.
According to Han Ruoyao, there were now many people who wanted to see him, and what was worse, if the assassin forces in Yanjing found out…
“I’m at New City Group, you coming?” As soon as New City Group was mentioned, Ye Shikai suddenly remembered that he had serious business to attend to, and it just so happened he was planning to go there anyway.
“Alright, I’ll be there soon.” After hanging up, Ye Shikai said to Han Ruoyao, “Yaoyao, let’s go to New City Group.”
“Mhm, uncle, are you going to New City Group to find that demoness?”
“Ah, I was planning to go there anyway, and I might as well check on her.”
“Tch, uncle, really…
Eating from the bowl and looking at the pot, still can’t stay faithful even after getting married.” Han Ruoyao scoffed, her insinuation clear.
“It’s not what you think, and also, Yaoyao, do you really have to call her ‘demoness’?” Ye Shikai was exasperated, guessing that probably only Han Ruoyao would dare to directly call Luo Shiqi a demoness in the whole of Yanjing.
“I will call her that, even to her face.
It’s her own fault for making me call her ‘auntie’ last time.” Han Ruoyao puffed up her cheeks, looking angry yet adorable.
It seemed that being made to call Luo Shiqi “auntie” last time had really frustrated her.
Before long, the car arrived at the entrance of New City Group.
Expecting that Han Ruoyao would leave, he was surprised when she parked the car, stepped out, and linked arms with him, apparently intending to go in as well.
This made Ye Shikai somewhat worried; what if the two started fighting later…
“Mr.
Ye, the President has been waiting for a while.” Upon entering, a woman dressed in OL attire approached with a smile, while some others looked at him with alarm—evidently, his last debt collection method was rather “rough.”
“Mhm, okay, lead the way.” Ye Shikai smiled in response, and with the woman guiding him, he and Han Ruoyao went up to the top floor of the company, straight to the President’s office.
“The President is right inside.” The woman pointed at a door ahead.
“Thank you.” After the woman left, Ye Shikai slowly pushed open the door to the office, where Luo Shiqi was sitting in the boss’s chair, looking at him meaningfully, with a slight smile on her face.
