Chapter 459, a hypocritical little bastard (second update)

The trees around had all been replanted.

Dark Hall’s plane was parked on the clearing, where Wei Bei and two others were chatting.

"The master has arrived," Wei Bei reminded.

Wei Xi and Wei Nan turned their heads to look, as the man’s tall figure slowly approached, without Ye Jiuliang by his side.

The three spoke in unison, "Master."

Li Mochan nodded in response, and the three parted to make way; the cabin door was open, and he strode towards the plane.

"Li Mochan."

The cool voice, with its unique tone, chased after him from behind.

Li Mochan retracted his step and turned around, his eyes dazzled by the sight of the woman running towards him.

Wei Xi and the others exchanged a smile and boarded first, leaving them a private space.

See, they were quite observant, determined not to be the third wheel.

Running too hastily, she was a bit out of breath; Li Mochan reached out to steady her.

His thin lips curled into a smile, "Why have you run over here?"

"Here, take this to eat on the plane," Ye Jiuliang said, thrusting the lunch box into his hands.

Her tender voice was almost dripping with sweetness, "Where did this come from?"

"Relax, I didn’t make it; I had the cafeteria’s chef prepare it." Ye Jiuliang rolled her eyes at him, saying irritably, "It won’t poison you to death."

Li Mochan, holding the lunch box in one hand and embracing her with the other, spoke lazily and with a teasing tone, "Can’t bear to leave me?"

"Who can’t bear to? Hurry up and go," Ye Jiuliang pushed him away, her expression full of disgust.

"Don’t drink too much," Li Mochan nagged as usual.

Ye Jiuliang laughed lightly, completely out of exasperation with him.

She hooked her arm around his neck and lightly pecked his cheek.

"I’ll be back soon, don’t go flirting with any young ladies."

Before she had finished speaking, she turned and ran off.

"I’m off, Achen and the others are waiting for me to start the meeting."

Watching her retreating figure, Li Mochan looked at the lunch box in his hand, and the smile on his lips grew broader.

Such a contrary little rascal.

When she entered Chu Chen’s office, Ji Mingqian and the others were all there, only she was missing.

"Yo, done sending off your wife?" Ji Mingqian teased with a smile that begged for a beating.

Ye Jiuliang ignored him, flopped onto the sofa, and poured herself a glass of water to moisten her throat.

"Ajiu, why didn’t you follow Li Mochan back?" Gu Xinuo asked curiously.

Ye Jiuliang crossed her legs with one hand resting on the sofa, embodying the epitome of a boss’s posture.

"I’m planning to visit a few auction houses later, to look for Mysterious Iron."

She was still counting on that iron box to lure out the snake; as long as the person hiding in the shadows wasn’t exposed, they couldn’t live a carefree life.

Gu Xinuo scooted next to her, "Then I’ll go with you."

Staying here was so boring; it was only fun being by Ajiu’s side.

As the person sat down next to her, Ye Jiuliang looked up to Chu Chen’s "unpleasant" gaze, and chuckled, "Achen is glaring at me."

"Ignore him," Gu Xinuo wrapped her arm around her, "Just don’t think about ditching me."

The looks from across became colder, and Ye Jiuliang grinned innocently.

It wasn’t her fault; it was your sweetheart clinging on to me.

Back to business, Ye Jiuliang straightened up, "Aqian, you can pay more attention to the situation in Country F, Mo Lingling might show up there."

Ji Mingqian understood her hint and nodded slightly.

Suddenly recalling an overlooked matter, Gu Xinuo turned to look at Chu Chen, "Should we take the order for Matt’s batch of goods?"

"Of course we should," Ye Jiuliang answered first.

"That old coot Matt is just afraid that by signing a contract with Dark Hall, he’ll thoroughly offend our K organization, so he placed such a large order with us."

Why not make money when there’s money to be made? After all, Matt doesn’t yet know about the current relationship between K organization and Dark Hall.
