Chapter 32 Drinking

Yue Lanxing wanted to find the person quickly, so she didn't continue talking to Xu Shun. She nodded to indicate that she understood and then left.

Soon Yue Lanxing arrived at the hotel. He first asked the front desk, and the front desk called the room, but no one answered. So he left a note at the front desk for Li Qi, telling him to come back to the villa after seeing the note.

After all that back and forth, it was already noon. Yue Lanxing thought for a moment and then drove to Zhao Mutou's noodle shop. He had said last time that he would come in the afternoon, so it was normal that Zhao Mutou wasn't there at this time. The waiter said that Zhao Mutou had said he would be back in the afternoon.

After finishing his meal, Yue Lanxing took a nap in the back of the noodle shop. The staff there all knew him and that he was a friend of the shopkeeper, so they arranged for him to sleep in the same room as Zhao Mutou.

Even when sleeping, Yue Lanxing remains alert, let alone taking a short nap. He woke up as soon as Zhao Mutou pushed open the door, opening his eyes without any confusion.

"Hey, you're still awake? Get up and see what I brought you!" Zhao Mutou casually pulled over a chair from the side and sat down next to the bed, holding an envelope in his hand.

Yue Lanxing sat up from her clothes. "Did you get any pictures?" It seems that even if Li Qi doesn't return to the villa today, he has other things to report to the young lady. The young lady is also very concerned about Zhang Pei's affairs.

"I finally caught them red-handed. There are photos of the two of them meeting here. I also found out the woman's identity. Her name is Xie Yingying. She is the daughter of the deputy editor-in-chief of Tomorrow Daily. No wonder Zhang Pei is so attentive to her."

"Zhang Pei is being overly attentive to her?" Yue Lanxing took the envelope, opened it, and took out the photo inside. After observing the woman's appearance, he said, "She doesn't look like a talented woman."

"Sigh, with a deputy editor-in-chief as her father, who cares if she's pretty or not? This guy is incredibly attentive to her, carrying her bag, tying her hair, and even fanning her. There are photos, see for yourself!"

Yue Lanxing flipped through the pages one by one, then put them all away. "How did you find out about her being the daughter of the deputy editor-in-chief?"

"Oh, it's because they always eat at Western restaurants. I overheard a meal and learned quite a bit. This woman and Zhang Pei's girlfriend are roommates. The two of them hooked up after a while, ostensibly to communicate about literature, haha."

"I reckon this guy is after the woman's father because of his status. He keeps bringing up her father when he talks to her. The woman is also quite arrogant and likes to be flattered."

"In terms of status, Xie Yingying's father should have helped more, but I don't know why he didn't break up with Miss Chen. This woman is obviously interested in him, but she wants to wait for him to speak up."

"But this guy doesn't seem to have any intention of being with this girl. They're quite affectionate, but there's no official status between them." Zhao Mutou shook his head, really looking down on this kind of person.

Yue Lanxing shook her head. There was no need to give Zhang Pei a friendly look; she said, "Thanks, I'll go back now."

"Okay, you're always so busy, it must be tough." Zhao Mutou was just about to lie down and rest for a while when he saw Yue Lanxing sit back down, which startled him. "Oh, is there something else?"
