Xiao Fang swiped around on his tablet for a while, then looked up in confusion, "Boss, there's no such school."
"Nothing? Could it be that even the school's name is fake?!"
"Yes, no," Xiao Fang affirmed. "There's no school with that name anywhere in the country. Boss, are you sure you haven't mistaken the school's name?"
Mu Nanxun glared at him. How could he possibly misremember just a few words? Did they think he was mentally challenged?
What a Yi Yi! What a prestigious academy! It's all fake. I bet even the name "Yi Yi" is fake.
Where did this old man find? He even claimed to have a high level of education. When did he become so easily fooled?
This woman was strange from the moment she appeared. She fell from the sky so bizarrely, landing right on him. Even though the old man had found her to be a surrogate, she acted like she absolutely refused. Later, she went to the club, claiming she'd been sold to Xia An, but then beat Xia An up. And then, she unexpectedly reappeared at the Mu family's recruitment event and even passed Uncle Zhang's interview.
Is all of this a coincidence or something else?
Why is she hiding her true identity and background? Could she have ulterior motives for coming to the Mu family?
Mu Nanxun took out his phone and answered the old man's video call.
The old man on the other end of the phone was falling from the sky with a parachute on his back, the wind howling so hard that his face was distorted.
"What earth-shattering event is it that you're sending me a video at this hour?!"
Mu Nanxun frowned. The old man was quite carefree. He smiled sarcastically and said, "You're all old and still doing these extreme challenges. Be careful not to fall apart."
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!" A loud, jarring sound came from the phone. "Spit it out, or I'm hanging up!"
"I wanted to ask about the background of the woman you found for me. Why can't I find any information about her?"
"Wh...what woman?" The old man was having a great time, yelling "Ahhh" on the other end, completely ignoring him. Then, the video call was disconnected.
Mu Nanxun's face darkened further. Who's the father and who's the son here?! How childish!
"Xiao Fang, investigate for me where Yi Yi has been and what she has done in the past month or so. No, not just in the past month or so, it's best to start the investigation from when she inexplicably appeared at Rose Manor."
"Yes, boss! Boss, do you think there's something wrong with Miss Yi? But she was sent by the old man, so her background should be clean."
"If it's clean, why can't you find any information about it? Are you neglecting your duties and deliberately trying to fool me?" Mu Nanxun raised his eyebrows, his slightly narrowed eyes radiating a dangerous light.
Xiao Fang's throat tightened, and she said aggrievedly, "How could I dare?"
"Good to know. Now hurry up and get all the information within three days!"
"Yes, boss!"
No sooner had Xiao Fang left than the old man's video call came in. He must have just gotten out of bed; he was still panting. While stretching his limbs, he spoke to the camera...
"What woman did you just say... what woman were you talking about? Were you referring to the one I sent over last time?"
"What else?"
"Oh, you mean her? She got lost that day and couldn't find Rose Manor, so I had someone send her away."
"..." What does that mean? That means Yi Yi wasn't sent by the old man. No wonder she kept insisting that she didn't know any old man.
