My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day Chapter 873

Chapter 873: 873, Xiao Yebai, are you so in love with her that you're dying? Chapter 873: 873, Xiao Yebai, are you so in love with her that you're dying? Zhan Yao was stunned for several seconds.

Then he said, “It shouldn't be that serious, right? I was shocked too when I found out about this matter, but since the Little Princess is already married to you and is carrying your child, it's as if the two of you have exchanged identities…”

“I can't find her anymore,” Xiao Yebai interrupted him.

“What do you mean? How can you not find her?” Zhan Yao didn't understand. “Didn't she go to Hokkaido for a trip? Didn't you have someone follow her?”

“They lost her.”

“What?”

“She left, and she did it on purpose.”

Zhan Yao was speechless, itching to roar in frustration, “What the hell are you talking about?”

Xiao Yebai's voice was ice-cold, “I've booked a flight to Hokkaido for tonight, and you're coming with me.”

Zhan Yao: “…”

A second later.

“Have you gone mad? Going to Hokkaido now? Do you realize you're still wounded on the forehead! Plus, all the media in Nancheng are looking for you! And then there are those incessant shareholders in the company…” Zhan Yao frowned deeply, “Right, did you not attend the meeting at the company this morning? And what did Mo Yaoxiong say?”

Xiao Yebai looked at him indifferently, his voice dripping with sarcasm, “Either come with me, or… shut your mouth.”

Zhan Yao: “……”

In the dim, cold room, he just watched the man who seemed to have gone mad.

Suddenly, he scoffed, “Fly to Hokkaido? You've really lost it… Do you think the bodyguards you had arranged there will be useless? Do you think they are less capable than you, and that you'll find her immediately once you fly over? Or is it that you just won't feel at ease if you don't go?”

“…” Xiao Yebai looked at him, expressionless, but did not respond.

“Those bodyguards are well-trained, and if they couldn't find her, do you think you can?” Zhan Yao wanted to curse but still patiently tried to persuade, “Please, brother, come to your senses. If the Little Princess has truly gone missing, it means all of this was planned well in advance.”

Xiao Yebai sat still as a statue, allowing him to finish speaking.

“Her purpose in doing this is to give everything back to you, including your identity as the biological son of the Mo Family, and the shares left by the old master; these should have been yours to begin with… She's using her disappearance to ensure you have these things! She's returned all of it to you, don't you understand?”

The handsome, chilly face had not a trace of warmth, and the thin lips were pressed into a straight line.

In the quiet bedroom, Xiao Yebai merely continued to look at him with an unchanging expression for a long while before he finally moved his eyebrows, “Return them to me?”

“Right!”

Xiao Yebai slowly curled up one side of his mouth as if he were smiling, but that smile was exceptionally harsh and mocking, “My things, I can take them back myself, I don't need her sympathy nor her charity.”

“…” Zhan Yao rubbed his temples.

Having known Xiao Yebai for so long, to tell the truth, he often felt that Xiao Yebai never really treated him as a true friend.

He would never take the initiative to talk about his own affairs.

Nor would he ever speak about his mood, whether happy or not.

If he hasn't known so much about Xiao Yebai's past, he might have shared the rigid and narrow-minded views of the rest of the world…

In any case, this man was too self-centered, yet extraordinarily resilient.

No matter what happened, he would always carry and digest it in silence, always giving the impression of an emotionless robot…

“So, do you still plan to go?” Zhan Yao dropped his hand, still wanting to struggle a bit, “Regardless of the chaos within the company right now, and regardless of the media in Nancheng wanting an explanation from you, are you still set on going?”

The phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.

In the dim light, that glint of brightness seemed particularly striking.

Xiao Yebai turned his head.

He was stunned for several seconds, then he picked up the phone and opened the message.

It didn't make much difference whether he looked at it or not.

Since the matter had been exposed, and Mo Yaoxiong had gone to the hospital to have a blood test in a calm manner, there was hardly any doubt left.

But at this moment, looking at the paternity test result on the phone's message, Xiao Yebai's facial contours still involuntarily twitched slightly.

“What's the matter?” Zhan Yao asked, “Did you get any news from Hokkaido?”

Xiao Yebai pressed the phone and stood up immediately, walking quickly out of the room.

His steps were fast.

Zhan Yao was surprised and hurriedly followed.

Just as Aunt Zhou had prepared a bowl of porridge and two side dishes and was carrying the tray up the stairs, she saw the man suddenly coming out of the room and exclaimed in shock, “Young Master Xiao, where are you going?”

Xiao Yebai didn't say a word, his austere silhouette brushed past her and hurried downstairs.

“Damn it!”

Zhan Yao felt something wasn't quite right and hurried down. Reaching out, he tried to grab Huo Jingshen's arm, “Yebai, where are you going?”

Xiao Yebai didn't stop, nor did he glance at him, and simply shook off his hand.

“Yebai!”

Zhan Yao strode over and firmly grabbed his arm, “Can you calm down for a moment? I know you're worried about the Little Princess, but worrying now is useless! You need to heal your injuries first. The Little Princess has bodyguards around her, what are you afraid of? She isn't alone, she has protection and assistance. If she intends to dodge you, how could you possibly find her? Moreover, overseas isn't like at home. Even if you go there, you won't be able to find her…”

Xiao Yebai stood there, his sharp facial expression tense, his tall and upright silhouette extremely stern.

Zhan Yao tried to persuade him, “Listen to me, go back to the hospital and heal first, then stabilize the company's situation with Mo Yaoxiong. I promise I'll have someone look into the Little Princess's situation for you!”

“Can you find her?” Xiao Yebai suddenly asked.

“…” Zhan Yao was speechless.

But at this moment, even if they couldn't find her, he had to say they could.

“Don't worry, I'll ask colleagues over in R Country for help. Don't forget what I do for a living. After all, I've been a criminal police officer for so many years. I have many colleagues, and I will have someone use every means possible to find her for you.”

A full five seconds passed.

“… Okay,” Xiao Yebai finally agreed.

Zhan Yao looked at him and let out a sigh of relief, “The doctor said you left the hospital this morning. You should eat something first, don't let yourself collapse.”

Aunt Zhou hurriedly spoke up, “Yes, Mr. Xiao, please have something to eat.”

Xiao Yebai turned and slowly walked back.

Entering the master bedroom, Zhan Yao hurriedly switched on the light.

He hadn't noticed how disheveled the room was in the dark, but now he could see everything was in a mess.

It wasn't just messy…

All the cabinets or drawers were left open as if someone had been searching for something.

He glanced at Aunt Zhou.

The latter returned a helpless look.

Since yesterday afternoon, Xiao Yebai had turned the room upside down. She had barely managed to tidy it up, only for him to come back at noon today and start rummaging through everything again…

What on earth was he looking for?

Aunt Zhou didn't know and didn't dare to ask.

**
On the couch, Xiao Yebai sat quietly, starting his meal.

His face was expressionless and his movements slow, as if mechanically finishing two bowls of side dishes and a bowl of porridge.

Zhan Yao didn't say anything else.

Anyway, as long as he was willing to eat, that was good enough.

After he had finished eating, Aunt Zhou took the dishes away.

Zhan Yao spoke up, “I'll take you back to the hospital first. You need to have your head injury re-dressed, or it might become inflamed if left too long.”

“Okay.”

Xiao Yebai stood up.

All the way to the hospital, he didn't say a word.

He was quiet as if he had come to terms with everything.

Upon reaching the hospital and entering the ward, Zhan Yao immediately called for a nurse.

Before long, the nurse brought in Doctor Liu.

He didn't look very happy, and as soon as he entered, he scolded Xiao Yebai.

Xiao Yebai sat on the hospital bed, still in the clothes he had prepared for the shareholder's meeting, now slightly wrinkled.

Doctor Liu quickly examined the wound on his forehead, changed the dressing, and applied a gauze bandage.

“President Xiao, I know that your family is in a unique situation right now, but please stop joking with your health. I'm a doctor, and I have to take responsibility for your physical health. If you keep leaving the hospital without saying a word and end up with complications due to inadequate treatment, don't blame me for not warning you in advance.”

Xiao Yebai sat there, silent from beginning to end.

However, Zhan Yao couldn't help frowning.

After the doctor left, he quickly followed.

“Doctor Liu!”

In the hallway, Doctor Liu stopped.

“Hello, I'm Yebai's friend. I wanted to ask, what did you mean by 'sequelae' just now?”

Dr. Liu explained, “In this car accident, besides the external injury to his forehead, he also had a mild concussion. Although the examination results show that there's no serious issue for now and there are no blood clots, he doesn't sleep at night, hardly rests during the day, and keeps running around outside. It's seriously affecting the recovery from his injury…”

Zhan Yao listened and nodded along.

In the end, Dr. Liu said, “Since you're his friend, please try to persuade him properly. Don't let it be that he has wealth in abundance, but ruins his health in the process. What's the point in that?”

“I understand.” Zhan Yao quickly took out his phone. “Dr. Liu, this is my mobile number. This way, you can communicate with me anytime about his health condition.”

Dr. Liu: “… Okay then.”

After Dr. Liu left, Zhan Yao returned to the hospital room.

Xiao Yebai was still sitting in the same position at the edge of the bed, not dressed in a hospital gown, and when he heard someone approaching, he didn't look up, just sat there silently, his face devoid of any fluctuation of emotions, the whole person had an… utterly dispirited air about him.

Zhan Yao coughed loudly twice.

As if hearing the sound, Xiao Yebai finally spoke, “Do you have something else?”

Zhan Yao: “…”
Fuck!

But…

Alright, this was the Xiao Yebai he knew.

Zhan Yao began to ask, “I have already asked the doctor. He says that you often don't sleep at night. What's going on?”

The man's Adam's apple moved up and down, but he didn't speak.

Zhan Yao was used to it.

He has always been like this, never actively discussing his own matters.

You ask him, and he seldom answers.

Even if he does answer, chances are it's brief and doesn't hit the mark.

But Zhan Yao couldn't help but to ask, “Are you not used to sleeping here, or can you just not fall asleep?”

After a few seconds, Xiao Yebai let out a sound, “I sleep very well.”

“Do you?”

Heh.

Looking at the obvious red veins in the man's eyes, Zhan Yao didn't bother to challenge his words, “Alright then, you just focus on healing for now. Once you're better, if you need to, I'll accompany you to Hokkaido.”

That statement was a promise.

The room was silent and still.

After a long while, Xiao Yebai finally responded with a, “Mm.”

Zhan Yao finally felt relieved.

He gave a few more instructions, until his phone rang. He answered the call, “What's up? Okay, I know, I'll be right there.”

After hanging up, Zhan Yao said, “There's been an urgent issue at the task force, I need to go back for a bit. You rest up; call me if you need anything.”

“Go ahead.” Xiao Yebai's tone was indifferent.

Zhan Yao picked up his car keys.

Before leaving, he couldn't resist taking another look at the man.

Honestly, seeing Xiao Yebai so compliant for the first time was a bit unsettling.

After all, this was never a man who would listen to him.

But considering the current situation outside…

Xiao Yebai was always calm and composed, probably just had a moment of impulsiveness earlier. Under these circumstances, he should know what's most important.

And so Zhan Yao left just like that.

He went downstairs, got into his jeep, and while driving, he called his subordinate, “What's the exact situation?”

“Boss, you better hurry over.” Gu Pingting sounded anxious on the phone, “Boss Xu wants to send all of us girls over there, saying something about forming a task force against sleazy men…”

“Then why don't you just go?” Zhan Yao was speechless.

It's not like she hadn't been there before.

“But I don't want to go, okay? I want to work on cases with you, boss. I don't want to handle those small cases. Li Juan has told me, Boss Xu always makes them wear heavy makeup and go to nightclubs… I don't want to do that!”

“Can't you speak properly?” With every other word being 'I don't want', Zhan Yao almost got sick listening.

“Boss Xu has gone to Director Wang's office! Hurry up, boss, ah ah ah ah ah…”

“Alright, alright, I'll be there as soon as I move on my people,” he replied.

“Boss! Go for it! Drive faster!”

Zhan Yao: “…”

He hung up the phone, fixed his gaze ahead, and quickly steered the car toward the station.

But just as he took a turn, his phone rang again.

He glanced at the phone screen.

It was an unfamiliar number.

He answered the call, “Hello, who is this?”

“This is Dr. Liu, do you know where President Xiao has gone?”

Zhan Yao's eyelids wouldn't stop twitching, “What do you mean? Didn't he just get back to the hospital?”

“Just now, President Xiao complained of a headache and asked a nurse to get him some painkillers. But when the nurse returned she found he had disappeared, and the bodyguard at the door was gone too. Didn't you tell me to contact you if there was any problem? Tell me, where has he run off to again!”

Zhan Yao: “…”

Shit!

This damn kid.

After hanging up, he immediately dialed Xiao Yebai's number.

To his surprise, the call was quickly answered.

He immediately cursed at the person on the other end, “Where the hell have you run off to? Didn't you agree to recover from your injuries first?”

“I'm heading to the airport now.”

Zhan Yao: “Shit!”

He couldn't help but swear, “Do you really think you can find her if you go there?”

“If I don't try, how will I know I can't find her?” With that, the call was cut off.

Zhan Yao, clenching his jaw, tightened his grip on the steering wheel incessantly.

Eventually, unable to hold back, he punched it.

Meanwhile, at Mo Group.

In the conference room.

A message suddenly appeared on Mo Yaoxiong's phone.

Looking displeased, he stood up abruptly.

The two shareholders who were furiously debating both stopped talking, surprised.

Without saying a word, Mo Yaoxiong walked out of the conference room.

As soon as the door closed, the room erupted into chaos.

“What's going on?”

“Why did the chairman leave?”

“President Xiao isn't coming, and he isn't taking a stance?”

“Don't get me started, Reporters call me every day, have I said anything?”

“This is preposterous!”

“A country can't go a day without its king, it's been several days since the old man passed; the chairman and President Xiao aren't handling affairs, is the company going to collapse?”

Someone tried to calm things, “Maybe there's some situation with President Xiao at the hospital…”

“What situation could there be? I've asked the hospital, President Xiao leaves every other day; who knows what he's scheming.”

“But the princess has divorced him, and she's even given him her shares. What is he still considering?”

“Could it be… he wants to go to R Country to bring the princess back?”

“After all, she's carrying his child.”

Some were angry, some surprised, some confused, and some… contemplative.

**
Mo Group's internal turmoil couldn't be solved in a short time, and the stock price kept dropping by multiples every day.

The sudden death of the old Mr. Mo would inevitably lead many shareholders to doubt the Mo Group's future operational plans, especially now that Xiao Yebai, who had been revealed to be the Mo Family heir, had yet to make an appearance. Mo Yaoxiong, the old patriarch's only son, also refused to accept any interviews…
In short, the situation was grave.

That morning, Su Wanwan arrived at Gu Media Group to report for duty.

As she waited in the office, she casually picked up a newspaper from nearby and began to read.

The financial section's largest feature was still about the Mo Group, and as Su Wanwan read, she couldn't help but sigh.

She took out her phone, and for the nth time, attempted to call Mo Weiyi's WeChat.

There was still no answer.

From initial worry, after several days, Su Wanwan had slowly come to accept the fact.

Mo Weiyi had truly left!

And she was determined not to let anyone find her!

As long as she didn't show up, Xiao Yebai wouldn't be able to find her, and the shares the old Mr. Mo had left her would naturally be transferred to Xiao Yebai due to legal effects…
“Miss Su?”

Su Wanwan quickly put down her phone and smiled as she stood up, “Hello.”

The secretary gestured with her hand, “Miss Su, please come with me.”

“Alright.”

…
Inside the spacious conference room, three interviewers in business attire sat at the front.

Su Wanwan sat alone across from them.

The interviewers asked many questions:
“Miss Su, why do you want to apply for the agent position?”

“Do you know what the main responsibilities of an agent are?”

“The work of an agent isn't as glamorous as you might think. Miss Su, with such good qualifications, why do you want to do this job?”

“Wouldn't you consider any other positions?”

…
Su Wanwan provided official answers to each one.

At last, the three interviewers glanced at one another.

In fact, they had already received instructions from President Gu to simply go through the motions with this Miss Su.

President Gu hadn't revealed Miss Su's real identity, but judging by her appearance, manner of speaking, and her educational and internship history…
In truth, this Miss Su was somewhat different from President Gu's previous mistresses. She was talented and beautiful, and being an artist's agent seemed like quite a waste of her abilities.

They even thought she had the prerequisites to become a star herself!

But since Su Wanwan was so insistent, and President Gu had indicated his position, the interviewers naturally had no further comments.

…
After the interview, Su Wanwan left the conference room.

When she entered the elevator and pressed the button for the first floor, she sent a message to Huo Jingshen.

[Honey, I succeeded in the interview. Let's arrange a dinner with President Gu and Haohao to thank them.]
Huo Jingshen did not reply immediately.

He was probably busy at the company.

After all, he had been preoccupied these last few days, accompanying her as they showed her master around Nancheng. It was only yesterday afternoon that they had finally seen her master off on a flight back to Los Angeles, so it was natural for him to be busy today resuming work.

Su Wanwan thought nothing of it.

The elevator reached the first floor, and she quickly left the building, heading to the parking lot to find her little red car.

Just as she got into the car, her phone rang.

As Su Wanwan saw the name on the screen, she answered the call, “What's up? You could have just replied with a message. I'm about to drive home now…”
“Baby,” Huo Jingshen's voice was uncommonly serious and solemn, “there's been an accident.”

Su Wanwan was startled, “What happened?”

Huo Jingshen said, “I just received a call from mistress, saying that President Xiao came back from R Country by plane today and was attacked at the airport. He's now injured and being treated at Nangong Hospital…”
“What did you say?” Su Wanwan's eyes widened in shock.

**
An hour ago.

Nancheng International Airport.

Zhan Yao had rushed over the day after Xiao Yebai went to R Country.

He mobilized all his contacts in the police stations in R Country, especially in Hokkaido, but in the end, he could only determine that Mo Weiyi and Rong An had left in a black sedan upon arriving at the Hokkaido airport.

The black sedan's last known destination was another airport in Hokkaido.

What could be found was that the two of them had purchased all available plane tickets from that airport from the afternoon to the evening using their own IDs, covering all countries and regions.

After complex investigations, it was finally discovered that the two never boarded any flight.

In other words, Mo Weiyi had used a decoy tactic…
Without any further leads, the only option was to review surveillance footage from all entry and exit points of that airport on the day in question.

But no suspicious individuals could be identified.

Moreover, even if they were identified, by the time they got there, two to three days had already passed since Mo Weiyi had left, making it impossible to contact any suspects in time.

In short, it was all a fruitless effort.

And Mo Weiyi, quite obviously, had already left Hokkaido.

As to where she had gone…
The world is vast, no doubt like finding a needle in a haystack.

After staying in Hokkaido for a whole week, Zhan Yao finally couldn't hold back anymore, “If you don't want to go back, then I won't bother with you anymore! I'm going back on my own!”

In the hotel living room, Xiao Yebai sat on the couch, silent for a long time.

“Accept the fact, she's gone, not in Hokkaido anymore. What's the use of staying here now?”

Xiao Yebai continued, “…”

Zhan Yao looked at him and suddenly said, “Xiao Yebai, are you in love with her to the point of death?”

The man finally reacted.

He lifted his head, his eyes and brows dark and fierce, “What did you say?”

“I said, are you in love with her to the point of death!” Zhan Yao couldn't help but laugh, “Look at yourself, all lost and despondent. Can't find the person, and now you don't even want to go home? Are you bewitched or what, huh?”

Xiao Yebai's brows furrowed.

As if he were slow to respond, he just kept looking at him.

Zhan Yao couldn't help but feel a little creeped out by the gaze.

He licked his lips, “Yebai, are you alright?”

Xiao Yebai's gaze finally shifted, and then he stood up, “Let's go.”

Zhan Yao was startled, “Where to?”

Xiao Yebai didn't look back, “Back home.”

Zhan Yao: “…”

**
It seemed that Xiao Yebai had come to accept the fact that Mo Weiyi had left.

From taking a car to leave the hotel, to the airport, through security checks, waiting, and then boarding the plane…
All the way, he was completely silent.

This silence lasted until the plane landed at Nancheng International Airport.

Somehow the news had leaked, and as soon as they emerged, countless journalists and media swarmed them, holding up microphones, cell phones, and even cameras while incessantly throwing out various questions.

Zhan Yao acted quickly, calling in bodyguards for help, and after significant effort, they finally broke free and went through the VIP passage to the underground parking lot.

After getting into the car, Zhan Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

The other bodyguards were still waiting for luggage; he checked the time and then looked at the man seated in the back of the car, “Haven't you been sleeping much these past few nights?”

Dark circles were so evident, his eyes filled with red blood vessels, even worse than back in Nancheng!

It was clear he was extremely fatigued, hadn't rested well, troubled by love…
Of course, these were thoughts that Zhan Yao could only keep to himself.

He advised, “There will be plenty of time in the future. The Little Princess is determined not to let you find her, and with a computer wizard like Rong An by her side, they can erase their tracks instantly wherever they go. It's normal not to find them, but gradually, I believe we will find them.”

“…” Xiao Yebai didn't say anything, just leaned down and then slowly closed his eyes.

It seemed he was truly tired.

Zhan Yao instructed the bodyguard driving the car, “I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving first. Take good care of Yebai and call me if anything happens.”

“Understood.”

**
Once Zhan Yao got off the vehicle and left, silence resumed within the carriage.

Shortly after, a group of bodyguards with suitcases arrived, boarding the vehicle one after another.

The bodyguard glanced at the cars behind and asked for instructions, “Mr. Xiao, can we depart now?”

Xiao Yebai opened his eyes.

He didn't say a word.

The bodyguard dared not move.

Unable to help himself, he looked at the rearview mirror, only to find Mr. Xiao staring out the window, as if mesmerized by something.

“Mr. Xiao? What's wrong?” the bodyguard asked, following his gaze outside.

It didn't seem like there was anything special…

With a “clang,” the rear door suddenly opened, and Xiao Yebai got out and rushed forward.

His movements were so quick that the bodyguard couldn't even react in time.

At the entrance of the staircase ahead, a group of brightly dressed young girls were gathered, each holding various light boards and glow sticks, shouting uniform slogans under the lead of the head fan.

“Keying Keying! Soar freely!”

“Keying Keying! Soar freely!”

“Keying Keying! Soar freely!”

Fang Kaiying's delicate and sweet face was shielded by sunglasses, wearing a red puffy dress that revealed her fair and straight calves, and her tecolored waist-length perfect curls were flamboyantly bouncing in the air.

She was breathtakingly beautiful!

She waved her little hand at the crowd, then curled her red lips…

Instantly triggering another wave of screams from her fans.

Just as she turned to follow her assistant into the nanny van, a gust of wind flashed before her eyes, followed by her slender arm being suddenly grasped by a forceful strength.

“Weiyi!”

The low and husky bass voice sounded as if it were grating against gravel.

Fang Kaiying felt pain in her arm.

She lifted her small face in surprise, looking at the newcomer through her sunglasses.

The man was also looking at her, with stark features and handsomeness, but unkempt; his short black hair was slightly disheveled, and there was a white bandage on his forehead…

Looking further, his beautiful, peach blossom eyes were blood-red, and his lips were surrounded by a sexy stubble…

Then, he reached out and took off the sunglasses from her face.

The sudden piercing sunlight made Fang Kaiying instantly close her eyes. It took her a while to adjust before she could open them again.

Staring at the face of the man who was too close, perhaps because they were so near, she could even smell the thick male scent on him, which seemed to be mixed with the odors of smoke, alcohol?

In any case…

It was filled with the strong scent of male hormones.

Especially when paired with the emotions in those eyes, so passionate, intense, full of longing…

Fang Kaiying blinked her beautiful cat eyes and finally spoke, “Who are you?”

She was only sixteen this year, with an obvious young girl's coquettish tone in her voice, tilting her cheek as she talked, her eyes filled with innocence and curiosity.

But…

Because of her question, the rich luster in the man's eyes seemed like a switch had been flipped, and they gradually dimmed.

Immediately after, her arm was released.

“I'm sorry,” Xiao Yebai said with a somber expression, “I mistook you for someone else.”

“…” Fang Kaiying's eyes widened as she was about to speak…

“Hey! Who are you?” Manager Wang had already rushed over, shoving Xiao Yebai aside and shielding Fang Kaiying behind her, “Kaiying, are you alright?”

Kaiying?

The thin lips moved slightly as Xiao Yebai lowered his gaze, the corners of his mouth slowly curling into a faint smile before he turned and left without a word.

“Kaiying? Kaiying, what's wrong? Oh my goodness, Kaiying, don't scare me, Kaiying…”

Fang Kaiying's gaze followed the man's retreating figure intently.

He leaned forward slightly, walking slowly ahead.

The weather was so hot, yet he was dressed entirely in black, even with wrinkles on his clothes, and his shoulders drooping…

But Fang Kaiying just thought he was so handsome!

And so masculine!

Just like those dark and brooding male protagonists in art films, possessing an indescribable charm…

“Kaiying! Kaiying…”

Not until the man's figure disappeared from view did Fang Kaiying finally snap back to reality, “I'm fine, all good.”

“Oh my, you scared me to death. Who was that just now? A crazy fan of yours?”

“How would I know?” Fang Kaiying retorted, “I have no idea where he came from, but he was so handsome…”

Agent: “…”

The next second.

“Within 10 minutes, I want all of his contact information! Get on it now, you hear me!”

Agent again: “……”

**
Xiao Yebai walked on with his head lowered.

Until he suddenly stopped.

He raised his hand to look at the pair of sunglasses.

To think he had mistaken someone for another…

And had even taken someone's sunglasses…

Xiao Yebai's face was expressionless.

Then, he reached out and casually tossed the sunglasses into the trash can beside him.

It was noon.

The scorching sunlight cast his long shadow as he stood there, suddenly feeling immensely weary.

He had hardly slept these past few nights.

He had not brought his sleep medicine and nearly every night as he lay in bed, insomnia would set in until daylight.

He always felt an emptiness in his chest as if something had been lost…

A series of footsteps sounded abruptly from ahead.

He paid them no mind until a flash of white light before his eyes was followed by a sharp pain in his abdomen.

The stabbing pain deepened and spread rapidly; Xiao Yebai quickly turned pale and broke out in a cold sweat.

He lifted his head, only to see a familiar man's face.

“Xiao Yebai! I want you dead!” Ling Zhizhou pulled out the knife, his face twisted as he shouted.

Xiao Yebai extended his hand and shoved him away in one swift motion.

Ling Zhizhou fell backward to the ground, and the dagger in his hand clattered on the pavement.

“Ah–”
“Murder!”

Screams echoed from the bystanders.

Quickly, bodyguards rushed over, “Young Master Xiao!”

Ling Zhizhou was pinned to the ground.

His eyes bloodshot, he struggled furiously, “My sister is dead; I won't let any of you off! All of the Mo Family must die! All must die!”
