The assistant quickly lowered his head when Li Mochuan looked at him, trembling with fear and not daring to speak.

He didn't know why Li Mochuan was suddenly unhappy, after all, his boss had always been such an unpredictable person.

After a long while, a smile appeared on Li Mochuan's lips, and his icy voice made the temperature in the warm carriage drop to freezing point.

"What did you just say? Who did Pei Minghan give it to?"

The assistant looked at Li Mochuan with a strange expression, not quite understanding why Li Mochuan was suddenly so angry.

Having followed Li Mochuan for so many years, he had long since become a shrewd and calculating person. Thinking of Ye Ningwan's stunningly beautiful face, he immediately guessed a certain possibility.

But the assistant was a smart person; he knew what to say and what to keep to himself.

The assistant swallowed hard, a dry, difficult feeling rising in his throat.

He forced a smile and said to Li Mochuan.

"Actually, it's normal... These things were given to Ye Ningwan by Pei Minghan during the first five years. At that time, they were engaged and had a good relationship. It's normal for Pei Minghan to give his fiancée small gifts. Besides, these are just small pieces of jewelry, only around a million. For a young master like Pei Minghan, this is normal practice."

The assistant's words did little to improve Li Mochuan's expression.

Li Mochuan chuckled softly and spoke with a hint of sarcasm.

"The fact that a man like Pei Minghan is worthy of her affections shows that Ye Ningwan's taste is truly terrible!"

The assistant inexplicably detected a hint of sourness in Li Mochuan's words.

He could only go along with what Li Mochuan said.

"Compared to you, Mr. Li, all men in the world are naturally inferior."

Li Mochuan remained noncommittal, picked up the document that had been tossed aside with one finger, and asked.

"These are all things that Pei Minghan obtained through legitimate channels, but people who like to buy antiques and jewelry know that the real treasures are the things traded in secret. Most of the things that can be auctioned off next year are not really anything special."

As for that jadeite double dragon pendant, anyone in the know should understand that it is a truly priceless treasure, something that would be absolutely impossible to find in a domestic auction house unless it were sold at an overseas auction house.

The assistant nodded thoughtfully and echoed his words.

"It's not impossible, and it's quite possible. It was my oversight. I'll send someone to investigate again right away."

Li Mochuan nodded, then asked his assistant.

"I heard... Pei Minghan wants to meet me?"

The assistant nodded quickly.

"Yes, Pei Minghan has made many requests to you, and even sent people to deliver a lot of gifts to me, but because you were injured before and refused to see anyone, I made excuses to decline all requests on your behalf, including those from Pei Minghan."

Li Mochuan said.

"I agree. Please arrange a time, the sooner the better."

The assistant responded immediately.

"Okay, I'll contact them right away."

After the assistant finished speaking, he picked up his phone.

Li Mochuan crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, slowly closed his eyes, and suddenly whispered something to his assistant again.

"Find someone to check where E Ningwan is now, and send someone to follow her. This woman is not honest."

As soon as he mentioned this, Li Mochuan subconsciously felt a dull pain in his left lower back.

He chuckled inwardly, feeling utterly helpless.

Ah, this woman...

Achoo!

Ye Ningwan was driving towards the city center when she suddenly sneezed loudly, followed by several more sneezes.

Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!

Ye Ningwan sniffed, reached for a tissue, blew her nose forcefully, and then touched her forehead, which was cold.

"Strange, is someone thinking of me? Is it... Pei Fengzhi...?"

After muttering these words to herself, Ye Ningwan gave a self-deprecating laugh and once again denied herself.

"How is this possible?"

How could Pei Fengzhi possibly miss him?

Li Mochuan's attitude towards her today made Ye Ningwan understand many things.

If Pei Fengzhi hadn't lacked deep feelings for him, Li Mochuan would never have seduced him, unless...

hehe……

Ye Ningwan shook her head to clear her mind of those chaotic thoughts, then picked up her phone and called Tang Ruanruan.

She just hacked into the surveillance system of the villa on the hillside and saw the surveillance video from that day.

Then she saw it...

Ah, how interesting!

One or two of them ignored her and met with her behind her back, ultimately causing this mess!

For a moment, Ye Ningwan even had the urge to abandon both her son and husband.

I'm so angry! Ugh!!!

Ye Ningwan slammed her fist on the steering wheel a few times, and a piercing horn blared immediately.

Almost simultaneously, the phone was answered.

"Hello……"

Tang Ruanruan's gentle and soft voice came from the other end of the phone, carrying a hint of apprehension.

"Wanwan..."

"It's me."

Ye Ningwan's voice was very calm.

In comparison, Tang Ruanruan appears even more timid and guilty.

"Wanwan, I saw what happened to you online. Are you out yet? That's great. I can finally relax."

Ye Ningwan narrowed her eyes and said calmly.

"I'm fine. I just wanted to come and see Little Star and Yu Yu..."

Ye Ningwan paused slightly after saying this, and did not speak directly, but waited for a while.
