Chapter 141 - 140: Found Information on the Owner of MM Ji Restaurant!

Mentioning Lu Mian, Su Luo’s attitude took a turn for the worse, her proud face tinged with resolve.

“Since Lu Mian has played tricks and mind games with you, don’t blame me for playing dirty too!”

“Luoluo, what are you planning to do?”

“Fight fire with fire! She made you suffer a loss in silence, I’ll make her roll out of that group!”

Su Luo clenched her fists, her stance unwavering.

Though Lu Mian was poor, she showed no aspiration to improve herself.

Based on her last-place ranking in the grade and her habit of reading novels during class instead of paying attention, she was more than eligible to be kicked out of that stock investors’ group.

Now, the most important thing was to find Lu Mian’s account and the group number…

—-

On her end, Lu Mian received a message that Yuren had leaked a bit of information according to her instructions.

She smiled, trusting in Yuren’s work, who always had a firm grip on such tasks.

After all, she had to let that Mr. Xiao who had been keeping an eye on her have some gains…

Zero, in an uncharacteristic move, asked her if she was interested in Xiao Qimo.

She was speechless, she was only because Xiao Qimo was also investigating the 726 kidnapping case and thought she might get some clues from him.

Just that, nothing more.

Although Principal Zhang wouldn’t disclose who took the school’s historical archives, she was almost certain that it was Xiao Qimo who had taken them.

Such simple logic, yet Zero and Sui Yuan bothered her with it, their thought processes were indeed strange.

Xiao Qimo was admonishing a young couple caught in the act in his office, and out of the blue, he sneezed.

He covered his nose and mouth with a handkerchief in a graceful and refined manner.

“Tell me, how did you chase her?” he put away his handkerchief, crossed his legs, and spoke languidly.

Ye Jinwen had long since become numb, sitting steadily at the office desk, busy with something or other.

The couple inwardly regretted for the two hundred and fiftieth time—they had even hidden in the gaps between buildings, how were they still caught by Director Qimo?

It was well known that once Director Qimo caught a couple, they had no chance of getting back together.

But the couple didn’t believe in such talk. They exchanged a determined glance, this time they were ready to face difficulties head-on!

The boy shielded the girl, “Director Qimo, we won’t let it affect our studies! We even improved in our monthly exam scores, you can’t break us up!”

The girl was moved, her boyfriend was so cool, so manly, so courageous!

Xiao Qimo squinted his eyes, holding his phone with some impatience.

“Answer what I ask you.”

His tone was calm, but it carried an unexplained and solemn authority.

The boy caved in, “Gifts, I gave her gifts! I gave her a bottle of her favorite perfume!”

Oh, gifts.

Director Qimo leisurely jotted down these words.

He paused thoughtfully, “Was the perfume orange-scented, by any chance? Do all girls like this scent?”

“Orange?”

The boy didn’t respond, but the girl looked somewhat bewildered, “Director Qimo, how did you know?”

“Oh, it’s coming from him.” It was faint, hardly noticeable to most people, mixed with a hint of peach.

Director Qimo’s expression was indifferent, but the girl’s face suddenly changed.

Having looked admiringly at her boyfriend just moments ago, she now looked at him as if he were a pile of second-hand excrement, her disgust palpable.

“You have that bitch’s perfume scent on you…” she sneered darkly, “I only like peach, I’ve never used orange-scented perfume!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Baby, listen to me, let me explain…” the boy frantically tried to explain.

Director Qimo wrote down two more words with his unfazed composure: nickname Baby.

“Ha, what’s there to explain? Drop dead! Jerk!”

“…”

The office returned to its quiet state.

Ye Jinwen calmly stood up from his chair, stretched languidly, and joked with Xiao Qimo while waiting for an email.

“Director Qimo is so awesome! There’s no couple you don’t want to break up that you can’t break up!”

Xiao, the Campus Assassin, squinted his eyes, ignored him, and mused lightly, “What gift should I give to Lu Mian…”

“…”

Ye Jinwen rolled his eyes dramatically. Just then, a confidential email came through, and he hurriedly opened it to check.

He shouldn’t have been alarmed at the sight, but his hand holding the phone trembled.

His voice shook with disbelief, “Brother Seven, we’ve got the information on the owner of MM Ji Restaurant!”
