Mo Xiaomeng was curious. âReally?â
âReally,â Ye Sijue answered.
Mo Xiaomeng hugged her bag. Tapping her lip with a finger she took a glance around the entire store before saying, âI want this place⦠to never be able to scam anyone ever again! Is that possible?â
These people were too evil. Who knew how many girls they had cheated in the past?
Upon thinking about the possible fate of these girls, Mo Xiaomeng felt sad for them.
âYes.â Ye Sijue smile and nodded at her. When he turned to the uniformed men, his expression turned to one as majestic as a king as he commanded, âDo as she requests.â
âYes!â
Ye Sijue pulled Mo Xiaomeng out of the store.
Mo Xiaomeng was confused. âJust like that?â
Ye Sijue stuffed her into the car and said mildly, âThe ensuing scene isnât suitable for your eyes. Do you want to check your bag to see if youâve lost anything?â
Mo Xiaomeng made a noise of agreement. Lowering her head, she began to check through her bag.
Luckily, everything was still present.
She patted her chest in relief. âLuckily, thereâs nothing I lost. If I had known that that would have happened, I would have put these things in my luggage.â
Ye Sijue started the engine of the sports car and asked, âWhich hotel are you staying at? Iâll drive you there.â
âItâs the one that we just came out of,â Mo Xiaomeng replied.
Such a coincidence!
Ye Sijue looked at her. âWhich room are you staying in?â
âRoom 1808.â Mo Xiaomeng revealed her room number without a second thought.
The 18th floor? Ye Sijue knew that that floor was full of luxurious suites, and it was just a little less superior to a presidential suite. However, the price for staying a night was something that a commoner couldnât imagine.
Ye Sijue smirked in amusement. It seemed like she had an uncommon status.
Mo Xiaomeng?
Which family of Mos did she belong to?
Ye Sijue was now deep in thought, trying to match her to a Mo family.
He probed, âDid you come to City A to play or to look for a friend?â
Even though City A was an international hub, it was not an interesting place to tour to a wealthy person.
âTo lookâ¦â Mo Xiaomeng almost revealed her motives but luckily stopped in time.
She felt a little hesitant and didnât know if she should tell him.
It seemed that he might know about Xiaoxiao since he looked like he had a lot of power and influence in City A.
Howeverâ¦
Mo Xiaomeng started to fret.
Actually, she had other reasons for escaping from America. If she found Xiaoxiao, she was afraid that she would reveal where she was to her brother.
She didnât want to go back to America temporarilyâ¦
Taking advantage of their red light, Ye Sijue put a hand on the steering wheel dashingly and turned around to ask her, âWho are you looking for? Why did you stop?â
He was harboring some suspicions.
He remembered how he seemed to have heard her call out a manâs name when he had been kissing her the previous night.
Could it be that she was here to look for that man?
Was that man important to her?
Ye Sijueâs gaze turned a little stern as he thought about this possibility.
Mo Xiaomeng shook her head. I didnât say I was trying to find someone. You could say that⦠Iâm here for fun and trying to find something casually too. You can think of it this way.â
She glanced at him furtively. Would he believe such a lie?
The light turned green, and the sports car started back up.
Mo Xiaomeng breathed a sigh of relief as she noticed that Ye Sijue showed no indication of suspicion nor interrogation.
