Chapter 480: 480, is Xiaobai a driver? bodyguard? servant?
At five in the afternoon, Mo Weiyi finally finished her styling session.
She was somewhat tired, but looking at her beautiful reflection in the mirror, Mo Weiyi curled her red lips and expressed her satisfaction.
“Miss Mo, you are ready.” Lili announced.
As soon as Lili finished speaking, Mo Weiyi saw in the mirror that the man who had been sitting on the sofa had already stood up.
She was a little surprised.
She had assumed he would’ve left due to boredom multiple times, but surprisingly, he managed to endure the four to five hours, despite taking several smoke breaks in between.
Changing her mind suddenly, Mo Weiyi said, “Lili, help me pick out a set of jewelry.”
“Of course, Miss Mo.”
Xiao Yebai: “…”
Subsequently, it took another half hour to pick out the jewelry.
…
After finally leaving the clubhouse, they arrived at the parking lot where Xiao Yebai pressed the remote key.
Mo Weiyi immediately asked him, “Where is Rong An?”
“He had a stomachache and went home,” Xiao Yebai replied, his expression unchanged.
A stomachache?
Mo Weiyi looked at him, “Really? A stomachache? Should I give him a call to check?”
Xiao Yebai’s expression remained unchanged.
When Mo Weiyi reached out to pull open the backdoor of the car, it was suddenly pushed back by a man’s large hand.
“What are you doing?” Mo Weiyi glared at him.
Xiao Yebai said, “Sit up front.”
“I want to sit in the back.” Mo Weiyi defied him deliberately.
Xiao Yebai narrowed his eyes and looking down at her, his tone mocking, “Do you take me for your chauffeur? Or your bodyguard? A servant?”
“No, I don’t!” Mo Weiyi reflexively argued.
“Then sit up front.” Xiao Yebai was succinct. Having said that, he walked around the front of the car and got in.
Mo Weiyi hesitated a moment before finally opening the passenger side door.
Once she got in the car, she dialed Rong An’s number.
He picked up quickly.
“Rong An, why did you go home?”
Rong An responded stiffly, “Princess, I had some issues.”
“What issues?” Mo Weiyi deliberately inquired, “He said you had a stomachache, is that true?”
“Yes, princess.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
Haha.
Truly impressive.
After hanging up the phone, she turned to look out the window.
The lights were beginning to come on, a bitter cold wind blew, pedestrians on the side of the road tightened their clothing, looking bleak and desolate.
The car remained quiet the entire way, other than when Xiao Yebai answered a call.
It was perhaps a classmate who had called.
Xiao Yebai only uttered two words, “On the way.”
He ended the call and drove the car into the underground parking garage of Jinmao Building.

Meanwhile, in a private dining room on the 20th floor of the Jinmao Building.
Tian Ye hadn’t expected that Ye Bei would bring his new girlfriend, a university student who was still in school.
Nineteen years old, very young, pretty good looking, wearing a princess puff gown like a cosplay character, with exaggerated false eyelashes like the SD dolls in video games.
Tian Ye wasn’t used to this kind of taste. However, Ye Bei was very fond of her. After the two of them entered the room, they were engrossed in playing games, which was quite an eyesore.
“Oh my, you’re so bad! I just protected you and yet you sold me out?” The girl’s voice was sweet and coy.
Ye Bei laughed, “I’m an Archer, I can’t die. If I die, we lose our damage output.”
“How will you thank me for saving your life just now?”
Ye Bei immediately lowered his head, “Thank you, my dear little milk momma, resurrect quickly, I need your healing.”
The girl giggled uncontrollably, “You’re so naughty!”
…
Tian Ye’s eyelids twitched, unable to understand what they were talking about.
Who would’ve thought that being in love could alter a man’s tastes so dramatically?
He’s actually able to play this kind of mobile game with a girl not even twenty years old, and so passionately at that.
How had she been in a relationship with him for so many years?
“Yo, they’re here.” A slightly frivolous male voice quipped.
Tian Ye snapped out of her reverie, “Zhan Yao.”
Looking behind him, her eyebrows knitted, “Where’s Yebai?”
Zhan Yao winked, “He said he’s on the way.”
Upon hearing this, Tian Ye instantly laughed.
Zhan Yao took a seat beside her, looking at the couple across from them, “It’s just the two of us who are still alone. Should we… settle for each other?”
Tian Ye picked up her beer with an unwilling air and took a sip.
“Tsk tsk, isn’t that something? Am I really that unattractive?” Zhan Yao wore an expression of being struck.
In the police department, he had always been the heartthrob. His photo, sneakily taken by a young girl and posted online, even gained him the title of “the most handsome detective.”
“Stop fooling around.” Tian Ye lifted her drink, “I don’t want to talk about romantic matters right now.”
Zhan Yao lifted his bottle of beer laughingly and clinked glasses with her.
She hadn’t expected that Ye Bei would bring his new girlfriend to a gathering like this.
When they were studying in America, Ye Bei and Tian Ye were the only Chinese couple in the whole research institute. They both were attractive and academically outstanding, seemingly the perfect match. Who knew it would come to this?
…
While the couple across played Honour of Kings, the two of them talked sporadically. Finally, the door of the private room was knocked twice and then pushed open from the outside.
A tall and aloof man stood at the doorway, ever so indifferent and refined, with a handsome outline.
Tian Ye’s eyes brightened. She stood up, getting ready to walk over. But Xiao Yebai moved aside.
When she spotted the figure clad in white next to him, Tian Ye was frozen in shock.
Mo Weiyi?
Why had she come as well?
