Chapter 462

Boi Yunon's expression turned stiff. The next second, he regoined his composure ond soid with o smile, "But you're very independent."

Su Ziyue wos not pleosed by Boi Yunon's flottery ot oll.

"If you hove something to osk or tell me, pleose get stroight to the point. You're on outsider to our morrioge. All thot you con see is from the surfoce, but you hove no ideo thot I con do oll this stuff without worrying becouse my husbond gove me o sense of security."

Hostility floshed through Su Ziyue's eyes.

My first unpleosont impression of this mon is proved right. Although he seems to odopt o gentle ottitude whenever he tolks to me, he octuolly gives off on oggressive ouro.

Su Ziyue wos certoin thot Boi Yunon intended to osk her something else.

Finolly, Boi Yunon chonged his expression when he heord Su Ziyue's words. "Since you've soid so, I sholl stop beoting oround the bush."

Then, he took out o picture from his pocket ond ploced it in front of Su Ziyue.

When Su Ziyue lowered her heod ond sow the person in the picture, there wos o slight chonge in her expression.

It wos o picture of Lin Enyong ond Lee Yonnon. The picture seemed to be token on o rondom street, but Su Ziyue couldn't tell where exoctly it wos.

Hos Boi Yunon storted investigoting Lee Yonnon some time ogo? Or he hos long noticed thot Lin Enyong wos impersonoting Feng Xingyon?

Su Ziyue feigned o confused look ond gozed ot Boi Yunon. "Whot do you meon, Mr. Boi?"

In foct, she wos owore thot Boi Yunon intended to osk her obout Lee Yonnon.

"I believe you con recognize the person in the picture." Boi Yunon onswered with his eyes norrowed.

"Of course I do. This is my uncle. The mon stonding beside him looks fomilior too, but I con't recoll who he is…" Su Ziyue pretended not to recognize Lee Yonnon becouse, given Boi Yunon's obility, he would surely find out thot she hod met Lee Yonnon before during the chority event ot Mount Villoge.

"I reckon you're owore thot I'm ossigned some tosks. I need to know more obout this person. His nome is Lee Yonnon." Boi Yunon fixed his goze on Su Ziyue while pointing ot Lee Yonnon in the picture.

"Lee Yonnon?" Weoring o perplexed foce, Su Ziyue pretended to ponder for o moment before she onswered os if she hod suddenly recolled something. "I remember now – he's o teocher in the villoge where I ottended o chority event before this. But why is he with my uncle?"
Bai Yunan's expression turned stiff. The next second, he regained his composure and said with a smile, "But you're very independent."

Su Ziyue was not pleased by Bai Yunan's flattery at all.

"If you have something to ask or tell me, please get straight to the point. You're an outsider to our marriage. All that you can see is from the surface, but you have no idea that I can do all this stuff without worrying because my husband gave me a sense of security."

Hostility flashed through Su Ziyue's eyes.

My first unpleasant impression of this man is proved right. Although he seems to adopt a gentle attitude whenever he talks to me, he actually gives off an aggressive aura.

Su Ziyue was certain that Bai Yunan intended to ask her something else.

Finally, Bai Yunan changed his expression when he heard Su Ziyue's words. "Since you've said so, I shall stop beating around the bush."

Then, he took out a picture from his pocket and placed it in front of Su Ziyue.

When Su Ziyue lowered her head and saw the person in the picture, there was a slight change in her expression.

It was a picture of Lin Enyang and Lee Yannan. The picture seemed to be taken on a random street, but Su Ziyue couldn't tell where exactly it was.

Has Bai Yunan started investigating Lee Yannan some time ago? Or he has long noticed that Lin Enyang was impersonating Feng Xingyan?

Su Ziyue feigned a confused look and gazed at Bai Yunan. "What do you mean, Mr. Bai?"

In fact, she was aware that Bai Yunan intended to ask her about Lee Yannan.

"I believe you can recognize the person in the picture." Bai Yunan answered with his eyes narrowed.

"Of course I do. This is my uncle. The man standing beside him looks familiar too, but I can't recall who he is…" Su Ziyue pretended not to recognize Lee Yannan because, given Bai Yunan's ability, he would surely find out that she had met Lee Yannan before during the charity event at Mount Village.

"I reckon you're aware that I'm assigned some tasks. I need to know more about this person. His name is Lee Yannan." Bai Yunan fixed his gaze on Su Ziyue while pointing at Lee Yannan in the picture.

"Lee Yannan?" Wearing a perplexed face, Su Ziyue pretended to ponder for a moment before she answered as if she had suddenly recalled something. "I remember now – he's a teacher in the village where I attended a charity event before this. But why is he with my uncle?"

Bai Yunan's eyes darkened as he asked in a solemn tone, "Didn't your uncle mention this person to you? Did anything unusual happen when you guys were in the village?"

"No. Is there anything wrong with Lee Yannan? He's just a teacher. Why are you investigating him?" Su Ziyue continued to act dumb to avoid getting into trouble. After all, she wasn't present when Qin Muchen met Lee Yannan.

Bai Yunnan's expression became weird.

Su Ziyue frowned and gazed at him in perplexity. "Mr. Bai?"

"Mrs. Qin, please think again carefully. Did your uncle really not tell you anything?" Bai Yunan asked with an incomprehensible look.

Su Ziyue didn't bother concealing her impatience anymore. "Mr. Bai, you can directly look for my uncle if you have any questions, but he's receiving treatment overseas now since his illness relapsed. He's a gentle and polite person, so I believe he'll be willing to cooperate with you even though he's unwell now."

Su Ziyue was implying that Bai Yunan was being inconsiderate.

Even if she was aware of any details, she was displeased with how Bai Yunan was questioning her as if she was the culprit.

Su Ziyue's aversion toward Bai Yunan was so obvious that the latter finally realized his behavior was inappropriate. He laughed and said, "I'm sorry for interrupting your meal, Mrs. Qin. Please allow me to buy the meal."

Why should I listen to you?

Su Ziyue smiled and took a napkin to wipe her mouth. "You don't have to do this, Mr. Bai. Jingshu is my husband's close friend, so I deem him a friend too. You're Jingshu's brother, so you're not a stranger to us. I won't be bothered with such a small matter like this, but I have to leave now to attend to some other matters. Please enjoy your meal."

After saying that, Su Ziyue stood up and left while Bai Yunan wore an awkward expression.

…

After getting into the car, Su Ziyue snorted in disdain. Although she knew it was natural for a man like Bai Yunan, who had authority and came from a high-class family background, to be shrewd and schemeful, she was annoyed because her alone time at dinner was disturbed.

She would be willing to cooperate if Bai Yunan had adopted a proper attitude and asked questions in a professional manner, but she was disgusted because Bai Yunan had been playing tricks with her from the beginning.

Bai Yunan's eyes darkened as he asked in a solemn tone, "Didn't your uncle mention this person to you? Did anything unusual happen when you guys were in the village?"

Alas, that was the table where she and Qin Muchen were seated when they visited Nine Oriental Pavilion last time. As such, she had no choice but to return to the hotel and place an order for room service.

While waiting for the food to be served, Su Ziyue called Qin Muchen and wanted to tell him about the encounter with Bai Yunan.

The call was answered in no time. Instead of Qin Muchen's voice, Qin Zixi's cute and childish voice came forth from the other end of the line.

"Mommy!"

Su Ziyue subconsciously wore a smile. "Hey, Zixi."

Qin Muchen's phone was put on speaker, so Su Ziyue could hear her husband's gentle voice teaching Qin Zixi to ask if she had had dinner.

The next second, she could hear Qin Zixi mumbling, "Mommy… dinner…"

It was considered a long sentence for Qin Zixi, so he was only able to spit out these few words.

Su Ziyue's sulkiness as a result of being disturbed by Bai Yunan was immediately dismissed when she heard Qin Zixi's voice.

"Mommy is going to eat soon. Have you eaten, sweetheart?"

This time, Qin Zixi blurted instantly, "Noodles."

I see. He had noodles for dinner.

"Alright, pass the phone to daddy." Qin Muchen's voice emerged. The volume was rather soft as Qin Zixi was holding the phone.

Qin Zixi seemed to be reluctant to return the phone. Su Ziyue could vaguely hear the kid muttering and trying to bargain with Qin Muchen.

A few moments later, Qin Muchen got the phone back and said, "Zixi went to watch cartoons."

Su Ziyue answered with a smile. "You're pretty good at coaxing kids."

After having some small talk, Su Ziyue told Qin Muchen that she bumped into Bai Yunan at Nine Oriental Pavilion.

Qin Muchen remained silent for a moment before croaking in a voice tinged with displeasure. "Just ignore him if you don't feel like dealing with him. There's nothing he can do about that."

Su Ziyue laughed in spite of herself when she heard his reply. Indeed, I can do whatever I want without worrying because of Muchen. I never think I'm an independent woman with Muchen being around. It's not shameful to depend on men. After all, Muchen is a dependable man.
