Lin Yaoyao had specifically instructed Xia Ci to provide Jade No. 1 with a chef, driver, nanny, etc. to facilitate Grandma Lin and Xu Xiaofang's meals and travel.

Xia Ci is really efficient. They had just moved in when the chef, driver, and nanny also moved in.

Tonight's meal was prepared by Chef Lao Liu. He used to be a chef at a five-star hotel, but was forced to resign due to family matters. Now he works for Lin Yaoyao. His salary is still the same, and he's very grateful, so he puts a lot of effort into the dishes.

When Lin Yaoyao and her group entered the restaurant, Lao Liu greeted her respectfully, "Hello, Miss!"

It can be seen that Lao Li already knows that Lin Yaoyao is the one who pays him.

Lin Yaoyao: "Hello, Uncle Liu, please take care of me in the future."

Old Liu smiled amiably, "Don't worry, Miss. I will do my best to serve you, the old lady, and the wife until my death!"

“…” Lin Yaoyao twitched her lips: It’s just cooking a dish, there’s no need to make it like a sea of ​​fire and swords, right?

"Uncle Liu, we don't have so many rules in our family. You don't have to be so reserved." As she spoke, Lin Yaoyao pulled out a chair for Grandma Lin and smiled sweetly, "Grandma, please sit down."

"Thank you, nannan."

Chen Congming had already pulled out a chair for Xu Xiaofang when Lin Yaoyao pulled out hers. As Grandma Lin began to express her gratitude, he also spoke, "Auntie, sit down."

Xu Xiaofang said: "Xiao Chen, you are so sensible, thank you."

Xu Xiaofang thought to herself: That’s great, there must be something going on between Yaoyao and this Xiao Chen.

After sitting down, Xu Xiaofang's eyes were directly glued to Chen Congming.

The more I look at it, the more satisfied I am.

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Xiaofang has lived for decades and has never seen a boy more handsome than Chen Congming.

Well, it's a bit like "the more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him."

Although Grandma Lin was not as exaggerated as Xu Xiaofang, her eyes kept moving between Lin Yaoyao and Chen Congming.

Lin Yaoyao: “…”

If she had known that bringing Chen Congming back for dinner would cause such misunderstandings from her grandma and mom, she would have called more people to avoid giving them any unrealistic expectations.

"Grandma, Mom, why isn't Ah Ci having dinner at home tonight?"

Lin Yaoyao knew how to change the subject. As soon as she opened her mouth, she successfully attracted the full attention of Grandma Lin and Xu Xiaofang.

Grandma Lin: "She said she had something to do at school, so she left in the afternoon."

Xu Xiaofang: "I heard her making a phone call. It was a male classmate named Yaoyao. I suspect she's in a relationship."

"Mom, Ah Ci is already in her twenties. It's normal for her to have a relationship. You..."

Before Lin Yaoyao could finish her words, Xu Xiaofang interrupted her and said seriously, "Grandma Xia Ci just passed away. She's very vulnerable right now. I'm afraid she won't be able to tell the difference and will be deceived."

"Yaoyao, you must ask her carefully when you have time. We are her family. If they are really in love, we have to help her check it out."

Grandma Lin: "Nannan, your mother is right, you and Xia Ci have had a good relationship since childhood, you have to ask!"

Lin Yaoyao: “…”

Did I disturb the speechless' nest tonight?

hateful.

I immediately became the spokesperson for speechlessness.

Lin Yaoyao's embarrassment didn't escape Chen Congming's eyes. He called Grandma Lin and Xu Xiaofang to divert their attention and started chatting about some very ordinary things.

Chen Congming was not a child from a wealthy family. Everything he had now was basically "given" by Lin Yaoyao, so what he said was very much in line with the wishes of Grandma Lin and Xu Xiaofang.

They laughed heartily.

Pick up some food for Chen Congming.

Serve soup to Chen Congming.

Busy all the time.

Those who don’t know him would probably think he is their grandson or son.

Lin Yaoyao was completely stunned when she saw this!

I didn’t realize that Chen Congming is quite good at pleasing the elders.

After dinner and some tea, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

"Grandma, auntie, it's very late. I'm going back first and will come to see you next time." Chen Congming said goodbye.

Grandma Lin and Xu Xiaofang really liked Chen Congming, and they were reluctant to see him go, so they said in unison: "Xiao Chen, come to our house more often in the future."

"Okay." Chen Congming said as he bowed to them, "Grandma, Auntie, goodbye!"

Lin Yaoyao walked him to the door, while Mother Lin and Xu Xiaofang couldn't wait to open the gift box to see what was inside. When they saw the gold bars, large gold bracelets, and gold necklaces that looked very heavy, they were dumbfounded.

And it lasted for a long time!

It was not until Lin Yaoyao had sent Chen Congming back that they spoke one after another.

Grandma Lin: "Nannan, is this gold?"

Xu Xiaofang: "How much does this much gold cost?"

"Yes, it's gold." Lin Yaoyao didn't actually know how much Chen Congming paid, so she answered honestly: "I didn't ask how much, but it must be quite expensive."

In an instant, the little flame of gossip between Grandma Lin and Xu Xiaofang burned fiercely.

"Nannan, what is your relationship with Xiao Chen?"

"Yaoyao, I think he's quite handsome. Are you guys like what they said online, more than friends but less than lovers?"

"Nannan, grandma is very good at judging people. Xiao Chen must be interested in you. Do you want to consider it?"

"Yaoyao, you brought such a valuable gift the first time you came to our house. Xiao Chen is a sincere boy. You must seize the opportunity and don't miss it later..."

"..."

"........."

The two of them chattered non-stop, all praising Chen for being smart.

"!!!" Lin Yaoyao: The bottom line is that I have no interest in getting married or falling in love. Otherwise, who can withstand the successive 'offensives' of this grandma and my mom?

"Grandma, Mom, I'm not in a relationship right now, let alone planning to get married." After a pause, Lin Yaoyao explained seriously, "Congming and I are just ordinary friends. In my heart, I only see him as my younger brother."

Yawning, Lin Yaoyao raised her hand to rub her eyes, "I'm so sleepy, Grandma, Mom, I'm going to sleep first, you guys should go to bed early too."

Back in the room, lying in the bathtub, Lin Yaoyao muttered softly: "Fortunately, I had the foresight to ask Ah Ci to hire a few more nannies."

Tsk tsk.

If I have to personally help my grandma wash, dress, and go to bed, there is really no way to escape.

...

Lin Yaoyao woke up at around four in the morning to find that Xia Ci hadn't replied to Jade No. 1 yet. Even the message she had sent that night had fallen into oblivion.

"Aci is not the kind of person who reads a message but doesn't reply. Could she be..." Something happened?

Lin Yaoyao opened the address book and started calling Xia Ci.

"Hello, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later. Sorry..."

Lin Yaoyao didn't give up and continued to fight.

"Hello, the number you dialed is busy, please call again later..."

Lin Yaoyao: “???”

No one answered the call just now, but now the call is ongoing?

Not right.

Lin Yaoyao hit again.

"Hello, the phone you dialed has been turned off..."

Lin Yaoyao: “!!!”

This is not just something wrong, this is clearly a danger.

Without saying a word, Lin Yaoyao put on her clothes and shoes and went downstairs. As she walked towards the outside of Jade No. 1, she flipped through her contacts and finally clicked on Li Nanxun's number and called him.

The reason is: only Li Nanxun has the power to find Xia Ci in the shortest time.

...

Li Nanxun was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by a sudden ringing phone call.

He was so angry that he just pressed the hang-up button, threw the phone aside and continued to sleep.

Lin Yaoyao was in a hurry at this time, so of course she couldn't just make one call. She also made a second and a third call... In the end, Li Nanxun of course answered the call.

"Li Nanxun, I'm Lin Yaoyao. I'm sorry to bother you so late at night. My friend is in trouble. Could you please help me find him? I..."

"Friend?" Li Nanxun interrupted Lin Yaoyao before she could finish her words and asked, "Male or female?"

If Lin Yaoyao listened carefully, she could easily detect the anger in Li Nanxun's tone that he was trying hard to control.

"She's my best friend, Xia Ci. I've sent her details to your phone."

Li Nanxun didn't respond to Lin Yaoyao's question, but changed the subject and asked her, "Where are you?"

"I..." Lin Yaoyao glanced at where she was and whispered, "I'm in the Emerald Manor."

"I want to see you in half an hour." He was about to hang up the phone.

Lin Yaoyao: "No, I can't go."

"Oh? Can't come?"

He disturbed her sweet dreams and refused to come. Who did she think of him, Li Nanxun?

Li Nanxun narrowed his eyes, his controlled anger gradually losing control, "Then I'm afraid I can't help you."

Lin Yaoyao was anxious.

"Li Nanxun, it's not that I don't want to come, but there are no cars at this time, I..."

"I'll ask the driver to pick you up."

Lin Yaoyao met Li Nanxun in forty minutes.

The man sat on the sofa in the living room, his face gloomy, staring at her deeply, with no intention of speaking at all.

Lin Yaoyao felt inexplicably uneasy when he looked at her like this.

Li Nanxun, this guy, could he be thinking...

"Ms. Lin, Miss Xia is at the Tomorrow Hotel. Our people arrived in time and she is safe now." Chen Yi respectfully reported Xia Ci's situation to Lin Yaoyao.

Lin Yaoyao heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Xia Ci was alright. Her hands clenched tighter at her sides, and she asked Chen Yi in a particularly heavy voice, "Assistant Chen, why did she end up at the hotel? What's going on?"

"We are not very clear about the specific situation, but the man with Miss Xia claimed to be Miss Xia's boyfriend."

"Boyfriend?" Lin Yaoyao thought of what Grandma Lin and the others had said, and then asked Chen Yi, "What's his name?"

Chen Yi: "Ms. Lin, that man's name is Wu Zhenrong."

"Assistant Chen, can you take me to find her?" Lin Yaoyao asked in a low voice.

Chen Yi did not answer, but looked at Li Nanxun, the meaning was self-evident.

Lin Yaoyao: “…”

But she was too concerned and confused.

What's the point of asking Chen Yi about this kind of thing? You should ask Li Nanxun.

After giving Chen Yi a look that said "I understand", Lin Yaoyao reached out and tugged at Li Nanxun's arm, asking him, "Li Nanxun, can you ask Assistant Chen to take me to my friend?"

Li Nanxun ignored her.

Lin Yaoyao gently shook his arm, "Li Nanxun, I'm very worried about her. Just ask Assistant Chen to take me there."

"OK?"

"Hey, is it okay?"

"Li Nanxun, please say something."

"Li Nanxun..."

"I can let him take you there, but..." The man hesitated.

Lin Yaoyao is now considered a half-female sea king. How could she not understand Li Nanxun's little thoughts?

She pretended to be well-behaved and looked at Li Nanxun eagerly, "Just tell me what you want to say. I can do anything for you."

"Oh? Really?" Li Nanxun looked at her meaningfully.

Lin Yaoyao nodded vigorously, "As long as it doesn't break the law, I'm fine with it."

Li Nanxun couldn't see anything other than sincerity in her dark, bright eyes. He said "hmm" solemnly, "Chen Yi, bring the person over."

"Master, there's something wrong with the wine Miss Xia drank. She's unconscious now, so it's probably not easy to bring her here." Chen Yimian looked surprised and spoke in a pitifully small voice.

Li Nanxun glanced at him and suddenly ordered, "Let Dahong follow."

Dahong is Li Nanxun's only female bodyguard. She is the sister of a friend of his who was once very close to him. Before that friend fell ill and died, he entrusted Dahong to him. Since then, she has always been by Li Nanxun's side.

Because her identity was different from others, she was nominally a bodyguard, but in reality she was always provided with good food and drink, and was never asked to do anything a bodyguard should do.

Even Li Nanxun would call her "Sister Dahong" every time he saw her.

Therefore, only God knows how shocked Chen Yi was when he heard that his young master actually wanted Miss Dahong to bring Xia Ci back!

Logically speaking, even if the young master was interested in Miss Lin, it would only be temporary. Miss Dahong is that person's sister, how could the young master let her help Miss Lin's friend? Unless...

Chen Yi was halfway through his thoughts when his eyes fell on Lin Yaoyao's face.

Then, he thought very impolitely: Miss Lin's face, I can only say is ordinary and featureless. It's not ugly, but it's definitely not beautiful!

So the question is, what does the young master see in Miss Lin?

money?

It shouldn't be.

The Li family is not short of money.

Good looks?

It seems that Miss Lin has nothing to do with beauty.

figure?

There are many beautiful women chasing after the young master, with better figures than Miss Lin, so it doesn’t seem like that!

Ah, this... this is really the young master's heart, a needle in the sea! !

After Li Nanxun finished speaking, he saw that Chen Yi had not moved yet, so he scolded him harshly: "Why, do you still want me to personally send you out?"

Chen Yi, who was named: "..."

Speechless, he kept saying "OK" and then disappeared without a trace.

Looking at his back as he ran away, Lin Yaoyao blinked and said to Li Nanxun, "Thank you!"

He raised his hand and waved, signaling the servants to leave.

Afterwards, he and Lin Yaoyao were the only ones left in the huge living room.

He pulled her to sit on his lap, one hand hooked around her waist and the other hand pinched her chin, "Lin Yaoyao, what did you and my aunt do in Haicheng?"
