After all these years, this stinky girl, Ye Jiuliang, was still as annoying as ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Detecting a hint of boasting in her words, Ye Jiuliang’s narrow cool eyes slightly squinted, and the mischievous smile at her lips grew more intriguing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being Mo Yuan’s wife makes one so imperious?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What is there to show off about?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, Mo Su’s self-impressed attitude is inherited from her, huh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So you are Mrs. Mo.\" She pretended to have an epiphany, \"No wonder, Miss Mo, you’re the spitting image of her, not much resemblance to Mr. Mo, though.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Mo Yu’s face changed color, a trace of irritation flashing deep in her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, Mo Su beat her to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss Ye, you really do jest. Some children resemble their mothers, and some look like their fathers. I just happen to resemble my mother more; it’s quite normal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Su defused the topic with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing Mo Yu’s hostility towards her, Ye Jiuliang smiled carelessly, \"Normal indeed, it was just an offhand remark. Mrs. Mo surely isn’t taking it seriously, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grinding her teeth, Mo Yu forced a smile, \"Of course not.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If only I had gotten rid of this stinking girl back then, it wouldn’t be so hard to deal with her now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Li, I heard from my father that this car accident involved our car hitting yours, and we’re really sorry about it. Therefore, we’d like to invite you and Miss Ye out for a meal, hoping you could honor us with your presence,\" Mo Su turned to Li Mochan, her tone sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan remained silent, glancing at the person beside him with a profound gaze, \"Shall we go?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang smiled, lifting the corners of her lips, \"It’s rare for Mr. Mo to extend an invitation, naturally, we should accept.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That Mo Yu seems like she’s hiding many secrets; dining with her should be very \"interesting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Su’s lips curled up slightly, her smile not reaching her eyes, \"Then that’s settled. I’ll send the address to Miss Ye tomorrow at noon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang hummed noncommittally, neither warm nor cold, as a way of agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well then, we won’t impose any longer, we’ll take our leave now.\" Mo Su nodded lightly at Li Mochan, receiving only the sight of his handsome profile in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she wasn’t annoyed and left arm in arm with Mo Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Interesting.\" Ye Jiuliang tilted her head, a mischievous smirk playing on her lush lips, \"Mohan, what do you think of that Mo Yu?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan voiced out quietly, \"Ill-intentioned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Claiming to apologize, but from the moment she entered, she kept her eyes fixed on our little wolf cub, with that inexplicably strange hatred barely concealed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pretty accurate summary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the meeting concluded, Qin Yi was left alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat with his hands on his knees, gaze unwavering, maintaining a decorously upright posture that exuded more than a hint of comicality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, the person opposite put down the documents and looked over at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qin Yi.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, just say what you want to say,\" he urged, wishing the other would stop smiling at him; it made him nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Chen cleared his throat, \"Qin Yi, last time you posed as me, you did well, so...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish, Qin Yi sprang up from his seat. \"Boss, I just remembered I have some unfinished business to take care of, I’ll go handle it now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing through his intentions, Chu Chen commanded, \"Sit down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yi’s spine stiffened, and he slowly sank back into his chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a pained expression, he spoke, \"Boss, I think these things should be shared fairly. I think Qin Er would be perfect for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That woman Mo Lingling was too disgusting; he couldn’t stand it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qin Er is no match for you,\" Chu Chen said with a slight upturn of his lips, his appreciative gaze fixed on him, \"Take another trip to handle Mo Lingling.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With those words, Qin Yi slumped his shoulders and his forehead thudded against the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, can you please let me off the hook?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was still young and didn’t want to be completely traumatized by women in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Chen cracked a smile, pulled open a drawer to take out a car key, and dangled the bait, \"If you make this one trip, this sports car is yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Yi raised his head, looked at the car key being offered, and shook his head without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about an extra two days of holiday?\" Chu Chen upped the ante enticingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A look of hesitation crossed Qin Yi’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Chen, \"Three days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Deal,\" Qin Yi gritted his teeth and agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Chen’s brows arched, and a satisfied smile curled at the corners of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could finally go see his wife.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>**\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The luxurious suite was bright with light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of running water in the bathroom abruptly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later, the bathroom door opened, and the steam rushed out eagerly to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the noise, Ye Jiuliang glanced sidelong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man wore a simple casual outfit, sleeves rolled up halfway, a few faint red scratches on his arm adding a touch of defiant unruliness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite being accustomed to watching him all the time, Ye Jiuliang couldn’t help but feel dazzled anew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was no wonder so many women in the capital yearned for him; this mere appearance was enough to attract admirers like bees to honey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lost in her thoughts, Li Mochan approached her, and she didn’t snap out of it until he was right before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan chuckled throatily, his fingertip lightly flicking her forehead, his clear and cool voice tinged with teasing, \"Haven’t had your fill yet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Mochan, if I tell others I’ve never lusted after you, would they believe me?\" Ye Jiuliang rested her chin on her hand, her tone half amused, half serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan sat next to her, his voice rising playfully at the end, \"Do you believe it yourself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I...\" Ye Jiuliang gave a sheepish laugh, \"Alright, I don’t quite believe it either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan laughed with a shake of his head, \"Didn’t find Ji Mingqian?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He checked out this morning.\" Ye Jiuliang pursed her lips, helplessly saying, \"I don’t know where that guy’s run off to. I texted him, he said he just got off the plane, and then radio silence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where did he go?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang tried to recall, \"Seems like he went to S State.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>S State?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan’s gaze darkened, a fleeting gleam flaring up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he remembered correctly, Feng Yi and Asheng were in S State.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had Ji Mingqian joined the commotion?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pup,\" he murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did Ji Mingqian ever have a girlfriend before?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pfft.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe his question was too abrupt, but Ye Jiuliang sprayed out her drink, setting down the cup and coughing until her face turned red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cough, cough, cough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan handed her a tissue to wipe away the splash, his gaze puzzled as he looked at her, \"Is my question that strange?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why would you suddenly ask that?\" Having stopped her coughing, Ye Jiuliang was completely bemused, wondering how they’d gotten onto the topic of Aqian and such matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just casually asking,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>",1319,"2026-05-30T05:19:09.456Z","2026-06-01T04:30:24.264Z",1,"novelbin.me","5889978e7a3af1bbcca1df9744d5f43e430366577642f44779d39019663f09c3","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-639","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-637",877,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-cover.jpg"]
