Chapter 161 That are more stubborn than you think

"It's just a small matter. How are you preparing for the banquet?" Yu Yibo's tone sounded extremely friendly, but Yu Xiaoxiao didn't feel the slightest bit of warmth.

Yu Xiaoxiao was clear about this point. One day, if Yu Yibo was really nice to her, she would definitely be scared.

Yu Xiaoxiao licked her lips, and her frown deepened.

Yu Yibo was just asking if she had settled Qi Qingfeng yet, but she hadn't told him!

No matter what, she wouldn't let Qi Qingfeng participate in that terrible mess of the Yu Family.

If Yu Yibo managed to get close to Qi Qingfeng this time, with his character, he would unknowingly keep plundering.

At that time, she would not even be able to raise her head in front of Qi Qingfeng.

Just as Yu Xiaoxiao was about to speak, a commotion suddenly sounded out in the corridor, and her body paused for a moment. Yu Xiaoxiao quickly spoke into the phone: "I'll call you again later, we'll talk about it later."

With that, he quickly cut off the call.

Just as he put down the phone, Ye Ran pushed Qi Qingfeng and walked in.

Yu Xiaoxiao's slightly flustered expression entered Qi Qingfeng's eyes. She casually glanced at the phone in Yu Xiaoxiao's hands, and calmly said: "It seems that you haven't returned to the Yu Family home in a while."

"Huh?" Yu Xiaoxiao's heart was still beating rapidly, but when she heard Qi Qingfeng take the initiative to talk about the Yu Clan, her heart tightened and her palms became so nervous that fine, dense beads of sweat appeared.

She twitched her mouth and replied in embarrassment, "Really? "It seems like I haven't been back for a while. You, I would have forgotten about it if you didn't say it. My dad just called me to come back today, and I happen to have some things that I want to bring over as well."

Yu Xiaoxiao almost said all these in one breath, for fear that Qi Qingfeng would suspect something, but the more Yu Xiaoxiao was like this, the easier it was for others to suspect something.

Fortunately, Qi Qingfeng already knew the source of Yu Xiaoxiao's nervousness, so he pretended not to be able to tell at all. He only stared at the woman's stiff little face and asked indifferently: "What is it?"

"It, it belongs to a woman." Yu Xiaoxiao extended her small hand and gestured a few times. Actually, even she herself did not know what she was going to take, as it was just an excuse, she did not expect Qi Qingfeng to take it for real.

Seeing that she was about to be exposed, Yu Xiaoxiao was afraid that Qi Qingfeng would be the first to confess, so she lowered her eyes and did not speak anymore.

Unexpectedly, Qi Qingfeng only nodded, "Then, when are you going to return?"

Since she had to work during the day, Yu Xiaoxiao was unable to squeeze in more time. Recalling what Yu Yibo had asked him just now, Yu Xiaoxiao simply replied, "Tonight."

Tonight? Qi Qingfeng frowned, he did not really agree with it, but if the little fellow was going to continue, he naturally would not stop it.

"I'll go back with you."

"No need!"

Qi Qingfeng had almost just opened his mouth when Yu Xiaoxiao immediately rejected his suggestion. Realizing that he rejected it too quickly, Yu Xiaoxiao was afraid that Qi Qingfeng would see through it just now, so she added: "It's already so late, you still have to work tomorrow and your movements are inconvenient. I can just get the driver to take care of it."

Although Yu Xiaoxiao pretended to be calm on the outside, she was completely unable to see the words on her face — Something was amiss.

Qi Qingfeng knew that this was just an excuse from Yu Xiaoxiao. He glanced at Yu Xiaoxiao and pinched her small face lightly.

"Be careful on the way."

His voice was faint, and as calm as usual. Since Yu Xiaoxiao didn't want him to accompany her, Qi Qingfeng also respected her opinion and wouldn't forcefully follow her.

"I know." Yu Xiaoxiao lifted her hand and caressed her small face. She was a little surprised at the tenderness in Qi Qingfeng's actions, but she couldn't tell anything unusual from Qi Qingfeng's indifferent eyes. She only thought that she was being sensitive to something.

Yu Xiaoxiao thought as she turned around and was about to walk out the door. However, with every step she took, Yu Xiaoxiao felt a shiver down her spine.

"Small." Suddenly, Qi Qingfeng's voice sounded from behind him.

Yu Xiaoxiao turned around suddenly and looked at Qi Qingfeng, her watery eyes staring at him nervously as she asked: "Is there anything else, Mr. Qi?"

Seeing the look in Qi Qingfeng's eyes, Yu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and looked over guiltily.

"Nothing, just remember to say hello to your parents for me." Qi Qingfeng raised his hand to indicate to Ye Ran, and then continued: "I'll be going back to the study room first."

Saying that, Qi Qingfeng nodded towards Yu Xiaoxiao, and a dim light flashed past his eyes.

Yu Xiaoxiao was startled for a moment, but immediately recovered her wits and stood up to help him open the door. Seeing Qi Qingfeng raise her head to look at her deeply, she turned her gaze away with a guilty conscience.

Qi Qingfeng did not say anything, and directly got pushed out of the room.

Yu Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief, and as if she suddenly lost all her energy, she fell onto the bed.

Ye Ran pushed Qi Qingfeng along the road as they walked along the corridor to the study room at the corner.

Qi Qingfeng kept quiet along the way. It was only when the door to the study was closed by Ye Ran did his expression slowly become gloomy.

Originally, Ye Ran wanted to pass a lot of documents to Qi Qingfeng, but seeing his gloomy face, Ye Ran hesitated and handed the documents over to the man. He opened his mouth wanting to say something, but in the end he did not.

After working in silence for half an hour, Ye Ran heard the sound of a car's engine coming from downstairs. After a casual glance, he saw Yu Xiaoxiao's petite figure and slipped into the car. Then, the car slowly left Qi Family.

"Sir, is it really okay to let the wife go to the Yu family so late?"

Ye Ran cast his gaze at Qi Qingfeng, hesitated for a moment, but still asked.

Although Yu Xiaoxiao had told him in advance when she went out, he could tell from Qi Qingfeng's expression that he was still worried about Yu Xiaoxiao returning to the Yu Family.

Qi Qingfeng's gaze fell on the document in his hand, but was unable to read a single word, so he placed the pen down and leaned back on the chair.

Ye Ran could not help but think back to the recording that Qi Qingfeng told him to extract yesterday. Could it be that it had something to do with the Yu Family?

Thinking about it, Ye Ran started to feel uneasy. Looking at the two of them, it seemed that Yu Xiaoxiao had not told the truth, and Mister was probably troubled by this matter.

Ye Ran quietly sat at the table beside him and organized his work. Seeing that Qi Qingfeng was still silent, Ye Ran continued to ask: "Sir, if Madam does not continue speaking, do you really not plan to ask about the Yu Family?"

Qi Qingfeng retracted his gaze, and turned his gaze towards Ye Ran. His indifferent face did not have a single emotion, "I had originally wanted to see when she would open his mouth, but who would have known that she was so much more stubborn than I had imagined …"
