Ying Xiaoxiao was thinking that if she had known that the man sitting at the bar was Steven Song, she would never have taken the gamble with Corey.
But there is no if in this world.
Looking at the Steven Song in front of her, Ying Xiaoxiao’s lips held a sneering smile, “It seems that I forgot to read the yellow calendar when I went out today.”
Hearing this, Steven Song’s eyebrows twisted up and her eyes sank a little.
“Mr. Song, hello.” Unlike Ying Xiaoxiao, Corey still greeted politely.
Steven Song barely pulled up a smile, “Hello.”
Corey smiled, then turned to Ying Xiaoxiao and said, “Xiaoxiao, we won’t bother Mr. Song anymore, let’s go back.”
Although there was still dissatisfaction with him somewhat, but compared to Steven Song, that bit of dissatisfaction was nothing.
Ying Xiaoxiao took the initiative to take Corey’s hand, and without looking at Steven Song any longer, turned around and left in harmony with Corey.
Steven Song turned his head to look at them, his gaze falling down on their hands held together, his eyes dark.
“Don’t be too impulsive in the future, lest you run into an embarrassment like today.” Corey could almost imagine how funny her expression would be the moment she saw Steven Song.
She hated Steven Song, and he was especially aware of that.
“I’m impulsive?” Ying Xiaoxiao coldly left him with a glance, “It’s not like you’ve messed with me.”
How dare you casually hug other girls, you don’t even take her girlfriend seriously.
Corey laughed, then raised his right hand, “Okay, I promise like you, I will definitely keep my distance from other girls in the future, there won’t be any physical contact.”
“Can I trust your promise?” Everyone says what they say, but doing it is hard.
“If I make a mistake again, I’m at your disposal.” Corey raised his arm and hugged her, looking at her sideways, smiling, “Is that okay?”
In fact, it wasn’t that he hadn’t felt the change, if he didn’t care about her, he could have ignored her anger and continued to do whatever he wanted.
But he didn’t, he had been coaxing her, which was completely different from the old, venomous Corey who was always against her.
She skimmed her lips, so she said with great reluctance, “It’s you who said that, don’t regret it then oh.”
Corey laughed lightly, “I definitely won’t regret it.”
Looking at his determined eyes, Ying Xiaoxiao finally revealed the first genuine smile of the night.
Based on the clues provided by Rosiley, the police looked for Xenia Zhao who was recuperating in the hospital.
When she saw the police, Xenia Zhao wasn’t surprised, but Rorey, who had come over to accompany her mother, was shocked and asked almost out of reflex, “Mom, what’s wrong with you again?”
Xenia Zhao faintly responded, “It’s Butler Zhao.”
Butler Zhao? Rorey abruptly stared at her, then asked urgently, “Who called the police?”
“Rosiley.”
Completely unsurprising answer, who else would have a hard time with them but Rosiley?
A hint of birds of prey floated in Rorey’s eyes, she was back in the entertainment industry, her mind was set on dealing with Ariella Ning, but for the time being, she had let Rosiley go, now it seemed she couldn’t lose sight of that.
A few policemen walked up to them, one of them said, “Hello, we are from the Beinin Public Security Bureau, we would like to ask you some information about the case of Butler Zhao’s disappearance, is it convenient?”
“Convenient, of course.” Xenia Zhao got up and brought the policeman to the sofa and sat down.
“May I ask what is the relationship between Butler Zhao and you?”
“He’s the housekeeper and has been working in my house for a decade or two.”
“And what hobbies does he usually have?”
“Hobby He likes to mess with flowers and plants in his weekdays.”
“And have you ever seen him hanging out with anyone more closely?”
Asked this question, Xenia Zhao pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, “I did notice that he was seeing a woman quite frequently, I asked him about it, he just said that it was a friend from his hometown, although he was employed by me, I’m not good at prying into people’s privacy, so I didn’t ask more questions.”
The police carefully recorded what she said one by one, and then asked a few more questions, and Xenia Zhao acted as if she had been prepared, answering them all and acting calmly.
After taking the statement, the police didn’t stay long and quickly left.
After the police left, Xenia Zhao’s entire body slackened and collapsed on the couch.
Rorey rushed over and asked worriedly, “Mom, are you okay?”
Xenia Zhao raised her hand to her forehead and gently shook her head, “I’m fine.”
Rorey frowned, “Mom, what should we do now?”
“Don’t worry, as long as I don’t say anything, there’s nothing they can do to me.”
Only they and Li Wu knew where Butler Zhao was going, and as long as they didn’t let go, the police would never find him unless they found his body.
“But Rosiley isn’t going to give up that easily.” That was what Rorey was worried about.
With Rosiley’s personality, she definitely wouldn’t give up until the matter was investigated to the fullest.
Xenia Zhao lowered her hand, a hint of gloom surfaced in her eyes, “Then let her have to give up.”
“Mom, what you mean is,”
Xenia Zhao raised her eyes to look at her, “That’s what you want, to leave this to Li Wu.”
Rorey was silent for a moment before nodding, “Good.”
The police gave Rosiley the news that they were using the message given by Xenia Zhao as a direction to investigate.
Rosiley only found it ridiculous that Xenia Zhao’s words were already untrustworthy, if the police still used this as the direction of investigation, then they were completely off the mark and would only end up finding nothing.
This should also be Xenia Zhao’s intention, to confuse the police’s direction of investigation, so that she can get rid of her own involvement.
It seemed that Xenia Zhao had already known that such a day would come, so she had prepared for it.
But she was cunning, and she, Rosiley, wasn’t a fool, so how could she possibly let her have her way?
In addition to the police investigation, she also had Sachin on her side to help with the investigation, and if there were no surprises, she was sure there would be progress soon.
But she didn’t expect Rorey to take the initiative to find her.
On this day, Rosiley was having a meeting with a few reporters from her own group when someone came over and knocked on the conference room door.
She turned to look at the door, only to see Li Na pushing the door and walking in.
“Manager Li.” Rosiley was surprised.
Li Na looked at the others, then her eyes fell on Rosiley, “Rosiley, someone wants to see you.”
See her? Rosiley frowned and couldn’t care less about who wanted to see her, turning to the others and saying, “You guys go back to work first.”
Then, she stood up and walked out of the conference room with Li Na.
I thought it would be some leader who wanted to see her, but I never thought it would be Rorey.
When she saw Rorey who was sitting in Li Na’s office, she was surprised, very surprised.
She turned to look at Li Na, her eyebrows lightly raised, “Manager, what is the meaning of this?”
