Chapter 167: Chapter 144 Passionate Embrace

At last.

Ye Xiao took on the significant task of watching Ye Zhaoyu.

Ye Xiao stared at the hurriedly departing figure of Ye Lin,

feeling somewhat bewildered.

What’s going on?

It’s only been a few minutes, and everyone from the family has left?

So now it was just her and the self-absorbed Ye Zhaoyu?

Directly opposite the hotel was a cafe.

Du Yaru, in disguise, sat in the cafe, keeping her eyes fixed on the hotel entrance.

The hotel had only one main entrance.

She would definitely see Tong Simeng leaving or Yue Heng entering.

Nearby on the basketball court.

Ye Bolin was shooting hoops half-heartedly,

his gaze drifting towards the intersection from time to time.

If one was coming from the airport, they would pass through this intersection.

By waiting here, he was sure to catch Yue Heng.

At the top floor of the business club.

Ye Mingcheng had rented out an entire floor and was now looking down at the hotel from his high vantage point.

This time, he had taken matters into his own hands and was determined to get the evidence he needed.

At the entrance of the hotel.

The people entrusted by Ye Zhaoyu and the tabloid journalists Ye Lin had brought in were already in hiding.

They were all waiting for Yue Heng to show up.

It was a full-on assault!

The sky gradually darkened.

One by one, others called to say they wouldn’t be coming home for dinner, but the chef still prepared a lavish meal.

Ye Xiao called Ye Zhaoyu to have dinner together.

Ye Zhaoyu, having sorted himself out all afternoon, now seemed much more composed and ready to face what was to come.

“Where is everyone else?” Ye Zhaoyu asked, surprised.

“They all had something to attend to and had to leave suddenly,” Ye Xiao said honestly.

Ye Zhaoyu breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been trying to think of an excuse to leave the house, but with no one else around, it shouldn’t be a problem.

He glanced at Ye Xiao, figuring he just needed to say a word to Xiaoxiao before leaving.

[Ah! Yue Heng is disembarking from the plane right now, on his way to the hotel. Although he isn’t here yet, he and Tong Simeng have been on the phone the whole way here, already deep in tender conversation.]

Ye Zhaoyu: “…”

Ye Zhaoyu ate dinner quickly and then said, “Xiaoxiao, I’ve arranged to meet with a friend, I’ll be out for a while.”

Ye Xiao’s eyes lit up as she nodded repeatedly, “Okay, okay.”

Perfect.

If no one else was around, she could sneak out and watch the show.

“Stay at home, don’t go out, I’ll be back soon,” Ye Zhaoyu added, somewhat worriedly.

Ye Xiao nodded incessantly.

Still unsure, Ye Zhaoyu took the time to instruct the butler before hurrying off to the hotel.

Ye Xiao waited a while, then couldn’t wait to get ready to leave.

She was set on seeing tonight’s spectacle.

Tong Simeng and Yue Heng were the male and female leads appearing last.

The plots involving the previous three pairs of lead characters had all been altered by her to varying degrees.

This pair of leads also deserved their share of attention.

After all, some word count should be spent on them as well.

Just as Ye Xiao was about to leave, the butler stopped her.

The butler looked embarrassed, “Miss, the lady and the master, as well as several young masters, gave orders that it’s not safe at night, and the miss must not go out alone.”

Ye Xiao: “!!!”

They all rushed off in such a hurry, yet they still had time to give such instructions.

Could it be.

That she was doomed to miss out on watching the spectacle?

Ye Xiao immediately felt frustrated and despondent.

Suddenly.

She remembered something.

You can’t go out alone.

Well then.

How about two people?

That shouldn’t be a problem, right?

Ye Xiao flashed a sweet smile, “Uncle Butler, I’m not alone, actually, I arranged to meet with Gu Yan.”

According to Ye Xiao’s experience, Gu Yan’s name was always the best to use when she wanted to go out.

The butler was taken aback for a moment, “The young master of Gu Family?”

Ye Xiao nodded desperately, “If you don’t believe me, I’ll call him and you can ask him yourself.”

Another thing Ye Xiao had learned was that once she said this, people usually believed her.
