1663 Miss Qiao Knows Many People
On the other hand, the young man in the living room, who was covered in wind and frost, had seen the girl coming down to get something several times.
This time, he finally couldnât help but look at the girlâs lazy back. He lowered his voice and asked, âIs that Miss Qiao that Ji Lin mentioned before? She knows someone from the Pharmacy Association? She even had a conflict with Qi Yan from Country M?â
He was slightly taller than Gu San, and the scar on his face was very eye-catching.
However, he looked dignified and solemn. His entire body emitted a bloodthirsty aura. His face was not too disfigured by the scar. Instead, it made him different from other men in the capital.
Gu San was very respectful to him and made him a cup of tea.
He had just put down the teacup when he heard his question. He turned to look at Qiao Nian, who had opened the fridge door and was casually taking water. Without waiting for Ye Wangchuan to speak, he said, âMiss Qiao knows quite a lot of people.â
Mo Dong raised his eyebrows and looked in the girlâs direction in disbelief.
He looked her up and down. No matter how he looked at her, he felt that she was just an ordinary person. There was nothing special about her.
Mo Dong retracted his gaze and simply ignored Qiao Nian. He crossed his legs on the other side of the sofa and rested them on the coffee table and then said in a low voice, âWeâve already found out who stole the Ye familyâs goods this time. Itâs a small gang. They donât seem to have any background at first glance. The Independent Continent is filled with such small groups of outlaws. They often rob and intercept goods.
âBut while theyâre a motley crew, theyâre not completely brainless.
âAt most, theyâll snatch things from small families with no background or merchants who go to the Independent Continent to start businesses. They wonât touch families they canât afford to offend.â
Mo Dong was annoyed for no reason. He picked up his tea. âTheir behavior was very strange this time. I caught one of them. That small fry insisted that they didnât know that they were snatching the Ye familyâs goods. They thought that it was a small businessmanâs goods⦠But the Ye familyâs goods are rare materials, and the Ye familyâs logo was on them. They insisted that they didnât know. They were just talking nonsense to me~!â
Ye Wangchuan remained calm.
His gaze was not on him, but on the girl getting water from the fridge not far away.
He saw the girl take out a bottle of cold water from the fridge with ease. He raised his eyebrows, his eyes burning. âNian Nian, have you forgotten what I told you a few days ago?â
The girl stopped twisting the lid and looked over impatiently.
He was in a good mood. âYou canât drink cold water for the next few days. I put some water at room temperature in the pantry for you. Drink that first.â
Mo Dong still had a stomach full of unfinished words. His eyelids twitched and he looked in the girlâs direction upon seeing that Master Wang was not listening to him.
âBe good, hold on a little longer.â He raised his thin lips and coaxed her.
After a moment of silence, the girl put the ice water back on the fridge and grabbed the normal-temperature mineral water. Then, she went upstairs.
He watched the girl go up to the second floor before slowly looking away. He leaned towards Mo Dong, who was already speechless, and asked lazily, âWhereâs Wang Fei? Did you find him?â
Mo Dong didnât react for a moment. Then, he shook his head and said solemnly, âNo. I donât know where Wang Fei went. The goods we found donât match up, either. More than half of them are missing!â
