"What, are you going to plead for her too?"
"No, it's not that. I just think that Miss Yi is a very good person, and she has had a tough time. If you kick her out like this, she will be homeless and have nowhere to stay. She will probably go hungry again."
"Did she tell you that she's homeless and doesn't know where her next meal will come from?" Mu Nanxun said coldly. He had actually believed the words of a female liar, a confidant he had cultivated for years!
Upon hearing this, Xiao Fang handed the tablet in her hand to Mu Nanxun, "Boss, this is the information I have gathered so far regarding Miss Yi Yi's situation over the past month since she left Rose Manor. Time was tight, so the investigation is incomplete, but it's about right."
Mu Nanxun took the tablet and browsed through it.
After leaving Rose Villa, she wandered the streets; she ate other people's pancakes without paying; she trusted a famous madam in the circle and was sold to Xia An (that was during the time at the club); later, she followed an old lady who sold pancakes to set up a stall, but her shop was smashed by thugs (it turned out that she was one of the people who had seen a gang fight on the street that time), losing all the money she had earned in more than a month, and also gloriously getting a day trip to the police station.
Wow, so much has happened in just over a month, that's quite a lot.
"Do you think she's genuinely naive or just pretending?"
No, "simple" and "naive" are not enough to describe her.
He felt as if she didn't even belong to this world; she was unfamiliar with everything and didn't even understand some of the most basic common sense.
Mu Nanxun suddenly remembered that when they first met at Rose Manor, she didn't even recognize a cell phone or know what money was.
Interesting! Either she really isn't from this world, as he thinks, or she's just a scheming woman putting on an act.
"Xiao Fang, you don't need to do any work lately."
"Really, boss?!" Xiao Fang's eyes lit up. The boss was giving him a vacation? And a paid one at that? He couldn't wait! He could already picture a seven-day trip to the Maldives—azure seas, blue skies, beautiful beaches…
Mu Nanxun glanced at him and said slowly, "Don't overthink it. I just want to give you another job."
"..." Uh~
Xiao Fang's square face immediately fell. All that blue sea and sky, all that beautiful beach and women—it was all just bubbles, fleeting sparks.
"Keep a close eye on Yi Yi. Find out everything about her: where she goes every day, what she does, who she associates with, and even what she says. Report back to me in the study every night."
"Huh?" This job is too grueling. There's no freedom at all. I'd rather just do my regular job.
"If you don't want to, go to the finance department and collect your salary," Mu Nanxun said quietly.
"Oh no no no, I'm willing, I'm willing. I'll go follow Yi Yi right away." Xiao Fang didn't dare to delay for a moment and ran off.
Are you kidding me? If he dared to say no, the boss would fire him immediately. Saying he was going to the finance department to collect his final paycheck was basically his last paycheck.
"Wait—" Mu Nanxun frowned; he hadn't finished speaking yet!
"Boss, is there anything else you need?"
"Keep an eye on her, don't let her starve to death on the street." If that woman is really that stupid, she might get scammed again as soon as she steps out the door.
Is the boss concerned about Miss Yi? Xiao Fang didn't dare to ask such a foolish question, so she repeatedly answered yes, and then turned and left the study.
