Daily Life in the Countryside After Being Reborn

Chapter 789: Chapter 110: Flattering the Wrong Person (Part 2)

The arrogant attitude Xu Lan Ya displayed when snatching the necklace just now would leave a bad impression on any elder who witnessed it.

Li Quqi kept his composure, figuring that since the other party claimed to know Yezi, they must at least know his current whereabouts. It wouldn’t hurt to probe a little; and Yezi too, having arrived at the convention center, why slip away without saying a word?

"Miss Xu, the last time Yezi called, he said he was quite busy recently, what do you think..." Li Quqi, having seen all types of people, although he doesn’t know the background of the two groups before him, still felt a bit wary after witnessing the dizzying scene of their recent fight.

Yezi has been in Beijing for so long, always refusing to contact him; even when at the venue, he didn’t dare to meet. Setting aside the fear of being scolded, the reason can only be that there are some hidden circumstances in between.

When Li Quqi left Dongnan Miao Village, the Red Locust Great Wizard also gave him a few words of advice: Yezi’s fate is extraordinary and should not be confined to Dongnan Miao Village. Although he was somewhat skeptical, he still kept it in mind.

"Oh, you don’t need to worry, Ah Ye has indeed been quite busy. He is serving as an Executive CEO of a large company. Huang’s Breeding, no, it will soon be called Huang’s Group. This enterprise is a well-known private enterprise in Beijing. Its development has accelerated over the past six months. It has already cooperated with a large multinational company and is likely to go public soon," Xu Lan Ya boasted with undisguised pride when mentioning Li Ye.

Her previous concerns about Li Ye’s origins not being impressive enough to introduce to Xu Zhang seem unfounded now. Since he is the only son of a national treasure-level master and the other party is a People’s Congress representative, Li Ye’s silver-making skills and his limitless future prospects made Xu Lan Ya beam with joy.

The changes in Xu Lan Ya’s expression made Ye Heng standing beside her feel very uneasy.

Who is Li Ye? Ye Heng realized that the competition wasn’t limited to just Wang Shuai; now there was also a Li Ye. In regards to Wang Shuai, on one hand, Ye Heng felt very inferior, and on the other hand, he held onto some luck, convinced that as long as Xu Lan Ya didn’t like Wang Shuai, he still had a chance to win the beauty’s favor. What’s more, he and Xu Lan Ya had already been intimate; he thought Xu Lan Ya, like him, considered each other their first love.

But now, he realized the situation might not be as he anticipated.

Judging by Xu Lan Ya’s respectful attitude towards Li Quqi upon first meeting, she had an interest in the man called Li Ye. Ye Heng had never seen such an expression on her in all the time they have spent together.

"Executive CEO?" Li Quqi coughed lightly, knowing full well the abilities of his own son; since when had he donned such a grand title? However, it sounded like Yezi hadn’t caused any major trouble, which was better than what he had expected.

Was that skillful young man from earlier from Huang’s Company? Anna looked slightly astonished. Whatever image of Huang’s Company others might have, Anna knew that the Roster family from the United States had recently invested in establishing a biotech company in China. The documents indicated that the first collaborative enterprise was Huang’s Company.

"If uncle wishes to see Ah Ye, I could take you to him; I know where he lives," Xu Lan Ya was too lazy to continue watching Ye Heng look at those tacky gold pieces.

"Master Li, Brother Li probably hasn’t returned yet; he went out with a female staff member from the venue," Yila, having her identity exposed, had earlier wished for a hole to bury herself in, was relieved that Li Quqi did not blame her. Instead, when learning that Yila stepped forward to fight for the Miao Silver booth’s honor, he even praised her a few times.

Indeed, after knowing that Yezi would not return to Miao Village for the time being, Li Quqi considered taking another apprentice. Although Yila seemed somewhat impatient, she had a foundation. With the lessons learned at this exhibition, her temperament should be refined. With a little more guidance, she could be an uncut jade.

"Female staff member? What female staff member?" Before Li Quqi could ask, Xu Lan Ya had already cut in with questions.

Her impolite behavior further reduced the not-so-positive impression Li Quqi initially held of her.

"Yes, a young woman with an exhibition staff badge, about the same height as this miss, with big eyes, black hair, and... quite pretty when smiling," Yila vaguely described Xiao Xian’s appearance and motioned towards Mitchell and the others: "The miss just met her when she arrived; they came together and left together."

Listening to the description, Li Quqi guessed that the person was Xiao Xian. So, had Yezi found Xiao Xian? That’s good then; Xiao Xian has always been sensible since childhood and is reportedly studying at a key high school in Beijing now.

His own son had always been "afraid" of Xiao Xian. Knowing that Yezi left with Xiao Xian, Li Quqi felt relieved. With Xiao Xian a girl watching over him, Yezi probably wouldn’t encounter any trouble.

Of course, Anna wouldn’t play into Xu Lan Ya’s hands. She gave a cold smile, thanked Li Quqi, and took out a rose gold VIP card: "Thank you, Master Li, for fixing the chain for me. This card is a VIP card for Yabao Company, and it entitles you to an 8.8% discount at any of our counters. I will remember your help." With that, she paid no attention to Xu Lan Ya’s angry gaze and strode away.

"Thank you for your enthusiasm, Miss Xu. I’ve been rather busy recently too. With Yezi busy with his own matters, I won’t bother looking for him now. I see that gentleman is growing impatient, so I won’t intrude any longer," Li Quqi also issued a dismissal, leaving Xu Lan Ya to retract her unfulfilled desires and leave the convention center in discontent.
