Mo Yi’s movement completely exposed him, after he had just been blocked by Bai Yucheng and the others. Only then did the people opposite discover that there was actually one more stranger who had come in with them.
At a glance, Mo Yi looked quite young, with dark, bright eyes, wheat-colored skin, and red lips. He was clearly a healthy, sunny young man.
That full-of-vitality appearance made Liu Fu’s eyes light up. He had always been willing to take both men and women, and especially liked boys who were young. Almost immediately, he became interested in Mo Yi.
“I wonder who this is…” Liu Fu narrowed his eyes and said to Bai Yucheng.
Most of the people present were shrewd. How could they fail to see exactly what Liu Fu’s look meant?
Bai Yucheng felt disgusted in his heart, and said with a stern face, “Naturally, he is a guest of the Bai family.”
And Bai Ren behind Mo Yi, though blocked, was not completely unable to see anything. Noticing Liu Fu’s expression, his gaze darkened, and a strong surge of anger rose in his heart. He wished he could immediately poke out that disgusting man’s eyes.
He directly took Mo Yi’s hand and had him stand by his side, his intention to protect him obvious.
Seeing this, Liu Fu narrowed his eyes, but did not say anything further. Although the boy opposite him interested him very much, he was not afraid of Bai Ren’s identity. However, this person had actually given him a strong sense of oppression just now, making him subconsciously want to back away.
Fortunately, he still remembered that this was the Bai family, and that he had important business to handle today.
“So that’s how it is.” Liu Fu smiled and nodded. “At a glance, I can tell he’s a pretty good young man.”
After taking a deep look at Mo Yi, he continued to Bai Yucheng, “However, President Bai, I came here especially today because I have something important to discuss.”
“Actually, when we met at the banquet before, I already mentioned it to you. Cooperation between our two families is definitely a good thing that can bring us to an even higher level. I wonder whether you would be willing to give me the honor of discussing it in detail?”
It was obvious that Liu Fu had not taken Bai Ren seriously at all. Even though Bai Yucheng had specially gone to the airport to pick him up and bring him back, that still did not mean anything. On the surface, he looked like someone who valued loyalty and righteousness, but bluntly speaking, he was nothing more than the son of a butler.
Liu Fu genuinely felt that Bai Ren was simply not in the same class as them, and he even assumed that as long as he personally came to the Bai family to talk about cooperation, Bai Yucheng would naturally set everything aside and go with him to the study to discuss it. After all, their Liu family was also very powerful.
Who would have thought that the other side’s reaction would be beyond his expectations? Bai Yucheng was not only uninterested in cooperating with the Liu family, he also strongly disliked Liu Fu’s character.
In his eyes, getting involved with Liu Fu, even if there were huge benefits, would be no different from making a deal with a tiger. He did not want to be bitten back by an ally at a critical moment. Hadn’t the Yang family already suffered such a lesson? Even if he had no choice but to cooperate with the Liu family, he would choose someone else in the Liu family.
So Bai Yucheng directly put on a businesslike attitude and said, “Sorry, the family members just came back today, so I’m afraid it’s not very convenient. Please come to my company for work-related matters. Then we can talk in the office. At home, I do not discuss business.”
Being so openly slapped in the face made Liu Fu very unhappy. Family members, he thought, this was just an excuse Bai Yucheng was putting on.
His gaze swept toward Jiang Mingda beside him. This man had taken the initiative to approach him earlier and volunteered to say that he would definitely help him establish a connection with the Bai family, which was why he had let that illegitimate son of his underling help him deal with Bai Ren’s matter.
Jiang Mingda understood Liu Fu’s meaning. Hearing Bai Yucheng’s refusal, he grew annoyed and said with a fake smile, “Cousin, why be so rigid? Since I’ve personally come to visit, surely you don’t mean to embarrass the Liu family, do you? This is a good thing that benefits both sides. Don’t miss it.”
Madam Bai on the side also joined in to persuade him. It was obvious that she had known about this matter beforehand and was on Jiang Mingda’s side.
Bai Yucheng was not surprised by this, but he was also worried that if this dragged on too long Bai Ren would get tired, so he still firmly shook his head and looked coldly at the people opposite him as he said, “Jiang Mingda, don’t bring outside matters back home. This is not the first time I’ve said this.”
The warning clearly carried in his tone made Jiang Mingda’s face instantly turn ugly.
Seeing her biological son get angry, Madam Bai on the side no longer tried to persuade him. For a moment, the atmosphere became somewhat tense.
But here with Mo Yi, everything was completely different. He did not understand business matters. He only knew that he had just heard an unexpected name.
Jiang Mingda!
The moment this name appeared, killing intent immediately surged all over Mo Yi.
He still remembered clearly exactly who had harmed Bai Ren into this state, forcing him to sit in a wheelchair and never stand up again.
His hands clenched into fists, and the boy’s entire body tensed up. He had already prepared to deliver a heavy blow to the man opposite him. He had to let him taste the suffering Bai Ren had gone through.
It was only that 005 discovered his condition in time and shouted to Mo Yi, “Host! You can’t just kill people! There are so many people around, and this is a lawful society. If you kill Jiang Mingda in front of everyone, you’ll be arrested!”
“Are you saying I should just let him go? If it weren’t for him, Bai Ren wouldn’t be unable to stand up!” Mo Yi’s tone was full of anger.
“And besides, when I taught that group of thugs a lesson before, you didn’t say anything.”
“That time nobody could see it! Ah, no, that’s not right, it wasn’t entirely because nobody noticed. Host, teaching someone a lesson and killing someone are still different!
“We are proper taskers. Our Plane Management Bureau is a proper department, and we can’t randomly kill innocents. Of course, Jiang Mingda isn’t innocent, but everything in this world follows cause and effect.
“Although Jiang Mingda has done many bad things, what he has done still isn’t enough to make him deserve death. If you insist on going your own way, you’ll get entangled in karma and weaken your fortune.
“You still have to take care of the villain, and you can’t get yourself involved in a lawsuit because of this kind of scum either.
“And if your fortune is affected, maybe even the villain will be dragged down by it. Host, you really need to think it over carefully before acting!”
Afraid that Mo Yi would get even more angry, 005 hurriedly added, “Host, please bear with it for now. Afterward, we’ll find a chance to first give him a severe lesson. When we find evidence in the future, we’ll send him to prison and let him face the law’s punishment!”
Knowing that it might affect his care of Bai Ren, Mo Yi had already gradually begun calming down, but he still felt unhappy in his heart. With his head lowered, he looked gloomily at Jiang Mingda opposite him, deciding that even if he did not kill him, once he found a chance, he would first secretly teach him a lesson.
Bai Ren’s attention had always been on Mo Yi, so he naturally also noticed the sudden burst of fierce killing intent from the boy beside him, and fell into deep thought.
He did not understand, by rights, what was so special about Jiang Mingda that he had caused his own little fool to react like this. This was the first time he had felt such heavy killing intent from Mo Yi.
Could it be because of him?
Thinking that the other party had even been able to find out who had broken his leg back then and had gone to seek revenge, then learning that Jiang Mingda was the mastermind behind it would not be strange either.
It was just that Jiang Mingda, he would handle himself. Right now, what he found even more irritating was that Liu Fu, whose head was full of filth.
He actually dared to stare at his little fool like that. It seemed the Liu family had been living too peacefully lately.
Because Bai Yucheng insisted, the cooperation matter not only failed to be settled, there was not even a chance to discuss it.
Seeing the plan come to nothing, Jiang Mingda and Liu Fu completely lost the desire to stay here for dinner, and casually dealt with Madam Bai a few times before leaving.
After learning that Mo Yi was Bai Ren’s lifesaving benefactor, Madam Bai’s attitude toward him was also quite good, and she immediately had the servants prepare his guest room, arranging it next to Bai Ren’s.
The Bai family old mansion had many rooms, so there was naturally no possibility of not having enough space.
When Mo Yi had been over there before, he had lived in the same suite as Bai Ren, with a living room between the two rooms. Now that they were living next door to each other, Mo Yi actually felt as if it was even closer than before.
After taking a look at his own plain room, Mo Yi lost interest. After throwing his luggage inside, he pushed Bai Ren to the room next door. In the end, he discovered that the interior layout was actually about the same as the guest room he was staying in, and he looked at the man with some suspicion.
“Isn’t this your room?” Mo Yi asked.
“Yes.” Bai Ren nodded, not understanding why the other party was asking this.
Mo Yi sniffed a few more times with emphasis, frowned, and said, “But why doesn’t there seem to be even a bit of your scent here?”
He was actually distinguishing people by scent!
Bai Ren raised his eyebrows. This little fool really did look a lot like a puppy.
