Chapter 187: Chapter 122: Closing the Net (Part 2)
"No, he came to apologize to me, and it just so happened that Ye Xuan also needed to talk to me, so we ended up together. Ugh, he’s a friend of Ye Xuan’s, I won’t bother you with the details now, we’ll talk when we meet tomorrow, you better go now." Luo Ye said as she walked over to unlatch the door, which was then pushed open abruptly, just missing her face thanks to her quick reflexes.
Tang Luo stared with his mouth agape at the figure swiftly passing by, then the "whooshing" sound quickly ensued. Seeing Luo Ye looking at her with a blaming gaze, she sheepishly smiled, "There really are some thick-headed people."
Leaning against the wall, Fu Mo saw the two finally coming out and joked with a laugh, "Did you two just have a medium-sized conference in there? You should really pay a fee for using the place like that?"
"Get lost!" Tang Luo poked Fu Mo’s forehead with her finger, "You didn’t eavesdrop on our conversation, did you?"
Fu Mo appeared speechless, "Sister, I’d have loved to eavesdrop, but could I? Not to mention I’d look like a peeping Tom if I pressed against the door, also the sound insulation on that door is so bad I couldn’t hear anything anyway!"
"Did you try it?" Tang Luo eyed Fu Mo suspiciously, "You look so sneaky, fess up to your sister now!"
"I really should let my mom see what you’re like now; they used to praise you for being sensible," Fu Mo eyed Tang Luo, "How come I just noticed, when Xing Nong isn’t around, you turn into another Xing Nong. Seems like you’re just pretending on normal days!"
"She’s just in a good mood today!"
"Naughty Luoluo!"
Luo Ye looked at Tang Luo with a meaningful glance which made Tang Luo guilty and she defensively grabbed Fu Mo’s neck, "That’s for speaking about me again... and again..."
Fu Mo and Tang Luo had been outside for quite a long time, and Fan Rui was feeling rather anxious inside, so she decided to come out and check. What she saw was Tang Luo shaking Fu Mo by the neck, and her already grim face stretched even longer.
"Young lady, the door inside can be locked securely, from now on don’t lock this outer one!" A woman emerged from the restroom right in time to save Tang Luo from her awkward pause, acting as if nothing happened, Tang Luo released her hold and smiled apologetically to the woman, "Sorry, I locked it subconsciously, it won’t happen again."
"And to think the hotel facilities here were convenient, I almost suffocated..."
Luo Ye and Tang Luo exchanged looks, both barely holding back their laughter. The woman had rushed in so quickly they hadn’t seen her clearly, only now noticing she was a woman in her fifties – wow, that urgency... must be quite stifling.
With an expressionless face, Fan Rui walked up to Fu Mo, "Today is my dad’s birthday, no matter what, he has helped the Fu Family for many years, shouldn’t you show him some respect? What do you mean by leaving and not returning?"
"I’ll be right back." Fu Mo greeted Luo Ye with a smile, "Luoluo, my mom is also there, do you want to go meet her?"
Isn’t his mom Ye Xuan’s aunt? Luo Ye hesitated, "Ye Xuan is also there, should we tell him?"
Fu Mo’s voice then turned colder, "No need, Tangtang, let’s go back."
Just as Tang Luo was about to say something, Luo Ye gestured with her eyes, signaling her to cooperate; some matters should not be rushed, pushing might only backfire.
However, Tangtang mentioned the Fan family is dependent on the Fu Family, and Fan Rui’s attitude is a bit peculiar, kind of like... the future mistress? Yes, that’s the feeling, but why?
...
After returning, Luo Ye guessed from Qi Bin’s absence that he probably left early to avoid embarrassment, after a moment’s hesitation, she told Ye Xuan his aunt was next door celebrating Fan Jiaxiang’s birthday.
Ye Xuan pondered for a while, "Never mind, some matters shouldn’t be rushed prematurely. Fu Mo won’t tell my aunt I’m here, he doesn’t exactly hate me, it’s just that there’s some resentment he can’t let go of, or perhaps someone’s not letting him let go. I’ve already got a lead, there’s no rush in meeting my aunt until things are settled."
"By the way..." Luo Ye thought and shared Fan Rui’s strange behavior with Ye Xuan.
"Girl, you really have a sharp sense!" Ye Xuan nodded in appreciation, "Come sit down, let’s talk about our own matters."
Luo Ye slapped her forehead, "Right, with all this fuss I almost forgot the main point. You said you have something important to discuss, let’s hear it."
Ye Xuan stood up and locked the room from inside, then swept through the room with a gadget before sitting back down, "Ye’er, the evidence we have is enough to keep Liu Zhengxing locked up for a crime. But as far as I know, your father also holds quite a bit. It seems he plans to strike at the right moment. I’ve thought it over, it’s better not to expose him. Otherwise, what will his future colleagues think? We must consider the long-term. I plan to talk to your father, have him hand over the evidence, and let Jiang Zheng and me handle it. He can just wait for the outcome."
Luo Ye looked at Ye Xuan gratefully, "Thank you, I understand. Tell me what I need to do!"
...
"Ye’er..." As soon as Luo Ye entered the house, Luo Feng hurried over, lowering his voice, "Did Ye’er really fall for Ye Xuan?"
"Huh?" Luo Ye looked puzzled at her brother.
"Mom and Dad have been worried all night. This is your second day going out to dinner with him. Mom wanted to call you, but since he helped so much, she was afraid of causing a misunderstanding..."
"What are you muttering about? Speak plainly!" Luo Zhenggang’s explosive voice interrupted Luo Feng, Luo Ye stuck out her tongue, were mom and dad really worried? Jealous, maybe?
Nu’an’s first update is here, phew, it’s late again, got delayed by something today, Nu’an will not explain much, rushing to code the next Chapter.
