Chapter 461 Can you help me investigate Madam Ouyang?



...

It's a typical steamed bun shop located near the roadside.

A striking couple, seemingly out of place in the shop, were sitting at a table and chairs that cost only a few dozen yuan, eating soy milk and steamed buns.

Did the owner of the steamed bun shop look at the two of them with a gossipy, envious look in his eyes?

Fortunately, it was only early morning, and there were few pedestrians passing by. They were the only customers sitting and eating there.

Everyone else bought their breakfast and left with it.

Jian Yixue was really hungry, and at that moment she was wolfing down her food without caring about her image.

Ye Mohan didn't touch his chopsticks, but stared at the woman across from him eating with a doting gaze, his eyes full of affection and love.

After Jian Yixue finished a plate of xiaolongbao, she finally had time to look at Ye Mohan. Seeing that he hadn't touched his chopsticks, she asked him with some concern.

"Why aren't you eating? Is the food not to your liking?"

"How about I take you to a restaurant after we finish eating?"

Jian Yixue was thinking that she hadn't considered Ye Mohan's feelings. Someone of his status would definitely rarely... almost never have eaten breakfast in a place where ordinary working-class people eat breakfast.

Although they had been to some ordinary places, those were places he had been to before. He probably had never been to a place like this, where the environment looked terrible and the goods were placed on the roadside in broad daylight.

Moreover, if people knew that he was having breakfast in a place like this, given his status, who knows what kind of rumors would spread.

After Jian Yixue finished speaking, she prepared to quickly finish the food on the table. Although Ye Mohan was not eating, she decided to eat it all by herself, adhering to the principle of not wasting food.

"No need, I just watched you eat for a while because you seemed to enjoy it. You don't need to leave, you can eat here."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue looked up and saw Ye Mohan eating with disposable chopsticks.

After observing him for a while, Jian Yixue didn't see any sign that he was reluctant, so she didn't bring it up again and started eating with him.

She was secretly delighted, and sharing food with her loved one made her feel happy, even if it was just a simple breakfast.

After finishing breakfast, Jian Yixue thought of Ye Mohan's men who had stood up for her earlier, and since there wasn't much food around the villa, she packed up a lot of food to take back to them.

The owner of the steamed bun shop was overjoyed to receive such a large order. Normally, they might not be able to sell all of this stuff in a whole morning, but today they sold more than half of it in no time.

The boss was overjoyed and immediately called his wife to help him get to work.

Jian Yixue bought almost all the steamed buns that the shop had made. The owner kindly gave her two or three styrofoam insulated boxes and even helped her put them in the car.

Jane was very satisfied, happily paid the money, and left.

Back at the villa, Jian Yixue asked Lin Yi to call people to bring the food inside and distribute it to everyone.

Seeing how kind Jian Yixue was to them, everyone became even more convinced of her status as Madam Jian Yixue, and they would definitely treat her like a master in the future.

Jian Yixue had no idea that her small gesture would win people's hearts so much; if she had known, she would have been pleasantly surprised.

After everyone finished eating, Jian Yixue looked at Lin Yi and asked, "How are their injuries? Have you checked them?"

After leaving the Ouyang family, she saw that many of the people in the crowd had been injured. Knowing that they were injured because of her, she couldn't turn a blind eye.

Lin Yi felt a warmth in his heart upon hearing this. "I've already had Young Master Zhou examine them. They're just superficial injuries and nothing serious."

These men were all working for their master, and getting injured was commonplace for them; they were used to it.

However, hearing that someone cared still warmed everyone's hearts.

Who doesn't like to be cared for, especially a group of people who are mostly single?

Jian Yixue nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Have someone wait upstairs later. I'll get you some special medicine to help you recover faster."

Lin Yi nodded upon hearing this.

Everyone: Waaah... They're so lucky.

It's not just that they had breakfast, but that someone still cared about their injuries; it's truly touching.

Even the master is not as good as the mistress; they have decided that from now on, they will obey the mistress's orders.

Lin Yi thought of the three people he had brought back. "Madam, what should we do with those three?"

"Keep it locked up for now, and we'll see in a couple of days." Jian Yixue's eyes darkened as she thought of the way Madam Ouyang looked at her.

Ye Mohan saw Jian Yixue's bloodshot eyes and the exhaustion on her face, and said, "You didn't rest well last night, go upstairs and get some sleep. We can talk about these things after you've had a good night's rest."

After saying that, she gave Lin Yi a dissatisfied look. Lin Yi immediately understood and shut up.

He was on the verge of tears. No matter how much his master blamed him, he was just asking how to deal with those people; he meant nothing else.

He had only managed to doze off for a short while on the plane since the night before last. He was exhausted and sleepy, and he was also bullied. Lin Yi felt very wronged.

But he only dared to think that way in his heart.

He wouldn't dare say it out loud, unless he thought he was living too long.

Thinking of Zhou Shao, who would sneak off to the academy after breakfast, he envied him for being able to leave so easily, while he... could only accept his fate, since he was the president's special assistant.

As long as you need me, I'll go through fire and water for you. As long as you have the money, anything is possible.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue glanced at Ye Mohan and nodded.

She was indeed a little tired.

She doesn't know why, but she feels weak these past few days. She never felt this way even after several fights. It seems she really lacks exercise.

Jian Yixue followed Ye Mohan upstairs. Once inside the room, she first went to her spatial storage and retrieved a pile of her own specially made medicines for bruises and sprains, including both oral and topical remedies.

Just as she was about to take it out to Lin Yi, Ye Mohan took it from her, saying, "You rest for a while, I'll go."

Jian Yixue did not refuse. She gave the medicine to Ye Mohan and then sat down on the sofa to rest.

When Ye Mohan returned after delivering the medicine, he saw Jian Yixue on the sofa. Looking at her exhausted face, Ye Mohan felt very sorry for her.

He really wanted to tell Jian Yixue that he would take care of all of this, and that all she had to do was be happy, joyful, and beautiful.

But he also knew that such a life was not what Jian Yixue wanted, so he had no choice but to swallow his words again.

Ye Mohan walked to Jian Yixue's side and let her lean on his shoulder to make her more comfortable.

Jian Yixue didn't stand on ceremony. She rested on Ye Mohan's shoulder for a while before opening her eyes and speaking.

"Mo Han, help me investigate Madam Ouyang. I need to know everything about her."

Ye Mohan: "You suspect that she is involved in your mother-in-law's disappearance?"
