Chapter 979
Chen Zhao’s eyes lit up and he looked at Lan Xiao in disbelief.
“Compensate me with a hundred thousand? Yingluo, you’re not lying to me, right?”
“Do I, Lan Xiao, look like the kind of person who goes back on his word? “As long as you answer a question of mine, Yingluo.” Lan Xiao’s lips curved into a smile.
Chen Yuan quickly nodded, her eyes sparkling.
No one would be against money, and it was a hundred thousand Yuan.
okay, ask. If I know, I’ll definitely answer you.
Lan Xiao moved closer to Chen Yuan. She stared at her and asked, ” I want to know, who is the person behind you targeting me and blackmailing me? ”
Chen Zhao clenched his fists. A hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
However, this hesitation did not last long.
She struggled for a few seconds, then looked up at Lan Xiao and said in a low voice, ” “Yingluo, you’ve actually seen that person before. She’s a very beautiful girl who often sits with me. Her name is Yang Liu-er, and her aunt is married to Jin Jing’s Bai family’s Qian Qian.”
“The Bai family?” Lan Xiao’s eyes flickered as she turned to Wen Muchu, ” “Is Bai shaogan from the Bai family?”
Wen Muchu’s eyes flashed with a trace of coldness. He had already asked Gu CI to investigate Yang Liu-er thoroughly.
He naturally knew about the relationship between Yang Liu-er and the Bai family.
“Yes, Zhenzhen, Bai shaogan is a member of the Bai family. Bai shaogan’s identity in the Bai family is a little complicated. I’ll tell you more about Yingluo in detail in the future.”
Lan Xiao nodded slightly, then wrote a check for 100000 Yuan and handed it to Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan took the money and was so happy that her eyes curved and she thanked Lan Xiao repeatedly.
After Chen Zhao left, Lan Xiao and Wen Muchu found a restaurant to eat at.
Unexpectedly, when she entered the door, she met a woman who was dressed in a very noble way.
The woman was wearing branded clothes and carrying a branded bag.
There was a bodyguard behind her.
His entire person exuded a noble temperament from the inside out.
When she saw Wen Muchu, her eyes slightly dimmed.
She immediately stopped in her tracks and called out to Wen Muchu, ” “Mu Chu?”
Upon hearing this, Wen Muchu furrowed his brows and shot a glance at the woman.
“You know me?”
The woman grabbed Wen Muchu’s hand agitatedly, ” “Mu Chu, is it really you? I really didn’t expect to see you here. Are you here to eat? Come, Yingluo, Auntie will treat you to a meal this time, Yingluo!”
Wen Muchu immediately avoided the woman’s touch. He held Lan Xiao’s hand and took a few steps back.
“I’m sorry, I don’t know you. I won’t accept a reward without any work.”
The woman’s eyes were glistening with tears. She quickly said in a hoarse voice, ” “Look at me, I was too excited to see you and lost my sense of propriety. You’ve never seen me before, so it’s understandable that you don’t know me. Little Wu Qianqian, hurry up and book a private room. I want to have a good talk with Mu Chu.”
The bodyguard standing behind her immediately nodded and turned to walk into the store.
Only then did the woman’s gaze notice Lan Xiao.
When she saw that Wen Muchu was holding Lan Xiao’s hand, her eyes dimmed.
A dark expression flashed across her face.
Wen Muchu did not intend to continue to be entangled with this strange woman. Without a word, he pulled Lan Xiao into the restaurant.
The woman quickly caught up to her. As soon as she walked in, the staff in the restaurant immediately ran over respectfully.
“Madam President, do you need anything else? Why don’t I invite the manager over again, Yingluo?”
Wen Muchu’s eyes flashed with a trace of surprise as he glanced at the woman.
Madam President?
Bai huien?
His face instantly sank.
Lan Xiao was also a little surprised. She didn’t expect that she would meet Madam President here.
She was Wen Muchu’s stepmother.
Lan Xiao glanced at the woman again. This woman looked so young, at most in her early 30s.
If one didn’t look carefully, one could say that she was in her twenties.
Could Wen Muchu’s father, the president, really have married such a young wife?
No, wasn’t Madam President the daughter of the Bai family?
He heard that the daughter of the Bai family was about forty years old.
Lan Xiao couldn’t help but click his tongue. Oh my God, isn’t she taking care of herself too well?
It was completely impossible to tell that this Bai huien was a woman in her forties.
Bai Wenen quickly shook her head at the waiter. She smiled gently and elegantly.”No need, I just met an acquaintance Yingying. You guys can go ahead, I don’t need you guys to entertain me.”
The waitress answered in fear and trepidation. She glanced at Wen Muchu and Lan Xiao and immediately got the others to arrange the room reserved by Madam President.
Wen Muchu’s eyes narrowed slightly. He held Lan Xiao’s hand tightly and turned to look at him.
“Let’s go to another place, Yingluo.”
Lan Xiao nodded his head obediently.
After that, Wen Muchu pulled Lan Xiao along and left without a word.
He didn’t have any desire to talk to Bai huien.
Seeing that Wen Muchu was about to leave, Bai huien’s face changed and she quickly stepped forward to stop him.
“Mu Chu, why are you leaving? You came to Jin Jing, but your father didn’t let me and your grandfather see you. Yingluo, you don’t even know. Your grandfather wants to see you so much that he’s going crazy. But your father stopped us and didn’t let us see you, Yueyue!”
Bai huien’s eyes gradually turned red as she spoke.
Her voice was a little choked.”You child, you’ve suffered so much since you were young. We should make it up to you, right? I really don’t know what your father is thinking. Why don’t you go back to the presidential palace? You’ve been wandering around for so many years, and it wasn’t easy to find you back. How can I let you live outside?”
Wen Muchu’s brows were tightly knitted together as he stared coldly at the woman who was sobbing in front of him.
Bai huien acted as if she didn’t see the coldness in Wen Muchu’s eyes. She continued to speak in a hoarse voice, ” “I really can’t let you go today. No matter what, I have to get you home. Let your grandfather see you, see how outstanding the grandson he misses day and night is. If your grandfather knew, he would be so happy, Yingying!”
yes, yes, I should give him a call now and ask him to come over to meet you, ” Bai huien said as he whipped out his phone and called old Mr. Wen.
Wen Muchu looked on coldly from the side. The disgust in his heart grew stronger.
Lan Xiao looked at the woman’s excited face and pursed her lips. She smiled faintly.
“Chu Chu is such a kind and gentle woman. Look at the way she’s so true to you. If outsiders see it, they’ll definitely praise her for being a good Yingluo.”
