Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO

With the money in his account, Li Xiaoyao naturally didn’t want to continue staying in the old lady’s office.

Just as he walked out of the finance room, he saw Zhang Meng running towards him excitedly, then she suddenly grabbed Li Xiaoyao’s arm.

Li Xiaoyao stared at her chest and said, "Meng Meng, how can you take advantage of me in public under the gaze of everyone?"

Zhang Meng hummed softly, but soon, she looked at Li Xiaoyao with fiery eyes, her voice filled with irrepressible joy, "Brother Xiaoyao, good news has arrived."

Li Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow and said, "Good news? Could it be that you’re offering yourself to me? Oh dear, that puts me in a tough spot, although you’re pretty and have a great figure, Meng Meng, I am a gentleman and not the type to loaf about with just anyone."

Zhang Meng’s face turned red with what Li Xiaoyao said, she bit her lip, hit him lightly with her small fist, and said shyly, "Brother Xiaoyao, what are you talking about? Who’s offering what."

Li Xiaoyao feigned confusion, "Not offering yourself? Then what’s this good news you mentioned?"

"Aiya, you’re so bad, who said good news is offering oneself, Brother Xiaoyao, you’re really bad." Zhang Meng’s small fists kept falling, but when they hit Li Xiaoyao, it felt as comfortable as a massage on the shoulders.

Li Xiaoyao hehe laughed and said, "Tell me, what is it?"

Zhang Meng saw that her colleagues were looking in their direction, coughed softly, and let go of Li Xiaoyao’s arm, saying, "The police brought you money, supposedly for assisting in solving a case."

Li Xiaoyao suddenly understood; he had just been thinking about the reward money, and the police had delivered it immediately, their efficiency was quite high.

"Let’s go, get the money."

The two police officers who came to deliver the reward were a man and a woman. The male officer was older with a higher rank, and the female officer was the well-endowed policewoman Zhu Xiaoyue.

Aside from the two officers, Director Lan was also in the meeting room, as well as a few reporters.

Seeing the setup, it seemed like quite a big deal.

As Li Xiaoyao and Zhang Meng entered the meeting room, the male officer immediately smiled and said, "This must be Mr. Li Xiaoyao, am I correct?"

Li Xiaoyao extended his hand and shook hands with the male officer, saying, "Hello, officer, I am Li Xiaoyao."

The man had been a police officer for many years and had long since acquired Fiery Eyes Golden Gaze; he could tell that this man was no ordinary individual.

The male officer said, "Mr. Li, on behalf of the police, I thank you for this kidnap case. Additionally, the police have brought you a silk banner and a bonus!"

From the moment he entered the room, Li Xiaoyao’s eyes had been searching for the reward money, eventually settling on a leather bag on the table. As for the silk banner next to the bag, Li Xiaoyao didn’t even glance at it.

"Thanks, officer," Li Xiaoyao said laughingly as he played along.

Next came the formalities. The male officer presented the silk banner to Li Xiaoyao, with Lan Cai standing to the left of Li Xiaoyao and the male officer to the right. A few reporters snapped away with their cameras, and it was almost predictable that these photos would make the front page of the newspaper the next day.

Zhu Xiaoyue, who had come with the male officer, was silent from the beginning to the end, only occasionally glancing at Li Xiaoyao. But whenever Li Xiaoyao looked her way, she would quickly avert her eyes, as if she was afraid to make eye contact with him.

Li Xiaoyao’s lips curved into a slight smile; this Zhu Xiaoyue was indeed quite a goddess when she was quiet.

Once the reporters had finished taking pictures and were leaving, and the male officer was also preparing to leave, Director Lan suddenly addressed Li Xiaoyao, "Officer Zhang has made a special trip here; Mr. Li, please make sure to be a good host tonight, and don’t neglect him."

Li Xiaoyao didn’t react for a moment, and it took him several seconds to realize that Lan Cai’s "Mr. Li" was referring to himself, and he promptly responded, "Certainly."

Officer Zhang smiled slightly, not declining the invitation.

Lan Cai glanced at her watch and apologized to Officer Zhang with a smile, "I’m sorry, Officer Zhang, I have another meeting later and really can’t spare the time."

Officer Zhang was very understanding and said, "Director Lan has a lot on her plate, I understand."

After exchanging pleasantries, Lan Cai left.

Li Xiaoyao checked the time, and it was only four o’clock. It was too early to eat, and the key point was he wasn’t hungry at all. Moreover, Li Xiaoyao had promised Tang Tiantian that he would come home for dinner that evening, and he also needed to explain the one hundred thousand Xuan Country Currency to her.

But on Officer Zhang’s side, it was personally assigned by Lan Cai; he couldn’t just drive him away immediately after Lan Cai just said to take good care of him, could he? Besides, he came to deliver money. It was only right, both emotionally and rationally, to treat him well.

Having made up his mind quickly, Li Xiaoyao turned his head to Zhang Meng and said, "Meng Meng, book a table at the hotel we went to last time. Let’s head over now."

Zhang Meng immediately took out her phone to reserve a private room, while Li Xiaoyao led Officer Zhang and Zhu Xiaoyue outside.

Fortunately, the hotel was not far away, just a ten-minute walk. Otherwise, Li Xiaoyao, a man without a car, couldn’t possibly hail a taxi on the roadside. How embarrassing would that be? It would be embarrassing not just for him, but also for the company.

The four of them quickly arrived at the hotel. The dishes were ordered by Zhang Meng—who was more than capable of handling these matters, so Li Xiaoyao didn’t have to worry at all.

"Director Li, we really owe you a lot for this case. Without you, who knows how many women would have been harmed," Officer Zhang sincerely thanked him.

Zhu Xiaoyue gave Li Xiaoyao a glance from the side, then suddenly stood up and walked out of the private room.

Officer Zhang called out, "Xiaoyue, where are you going?"

Zhu Xiaoyue replied, "Restroom."

Officer Zhang didn’t ask further but shook his head somewhat helplessly.

Li Xiaoyao, feeling an urgent need to pee, stood up and said, "I’m also going to the restroom."

When Li Xiaoyao came out of the restroom, he happened to bump into Zhu Xiaoyue coming out of the ladies’ room.

Li Xiaoyao’s eyes involuntarily drifted towards Zhu Xiaoyue’s chest. Zhu Xiaoyue noticed his gaze and immediately flared up, glaring at him, "Where are you looking?"

Li Xiaoyao casually replied, "It’s so beautiful, am I not allowed to look?"

"Jerk, if you keep looking, I’ll gouge out your eyes," Zhu Xiaoyue threatened, raising her hand.

Li Xiaoyao chuckled and said, "Officer, is it a crime to appreciate too?"

Zhu Xiaoyue huffed angrily and turned to walk back to the private room.

Li Xiaoyao quickly caught up, saying, "Hey, don’t be mad, don’t be mad, next time I won’t look at you, okay?"

Zhu Xiaoyue slowed down, her expression softening a lot, and asked, "Do you mean that?"

Li Xiaoyao nodded repeatedly, his gaze drifting towards her butt, "I’ll just look somewhere else next time."

"Li Xiaoyao, you big jerk!" Zhu Xiaoyue immediately flew into a rage, taking swings at him, which he deftly caught by grabbing her wrist.

Li Xiaoyao dropped his joking demeanor and looked at her seriously, saying, "Alright, no more teasing, let’s go. We shouldn’t keep Officer Zhang waiting too long."

After Li Xiaoyao spoke, he headed back to the private room, leaving Zhu Xiaoyue standing there somewhat dazed.

Just now, Li Xiaoyao’s voice had been gentle, and the look in his eyes when he saw her was especially tender—so tender that it gave Zhu Xiaoyue an odd sensation.
