Chapter 160 Are you playing dumb with me?



After Xiang Yu carried Luo Yan upstairs, Zhang Jue entered the guesthouse and requested to be on the same floor as the overseas Chinese when checking in.

This time, Zhang Jue neither showed his work ID nor brought a letter of introduction, but waited for the receptionist to call and ask his supervisor for instructions.

Surprisingly, the leader answered the phone and agreed without even asking any questions. The receptionist glanced at Zhang Jue several times in surprise.

After getting the key, Zhang Jue went up to the second floor and entered room 207. Across the hall was room 208, where Xiang Yu lived.

Zhang Jue opened the door a crack and, having not slept all night, lay down on the bed to catch up on sleep.

Xiang Yu carried Luo Yan into the guest room, then let her play on the floor while he dialed his godfather's house in Beijing.

Hearing from the nanny that the old man was neither at home nor at the hospital, Xiang Yu's expression changed slightly. After clarifying that Ximen Bei had moved into the compound and would not be returning home for the time being, Xiang Yu hung up the phone and dialed the Luo family's number.

Usually, Du Jiqing would answer the phone, but this time it was the nanny. After the nanny told Xiang Yu that Du Jiqing had moved out of the compound, she wouldn't say anything else when Xiang Yu asked.

Xiang Yu asked the nanny to tell Xia Suya that she had found Luo Yan at the Lincheng Power Plant Guesthouse. The nanny promised to pass on the message and then hung up the phone.

She had only been away from Beijing for a few days when her godfather made friends who could stay at his house, and Du Jiqing had also moved out of the Luo family home. How could this be?

Xiang Yu waved to Luo Yan, who was running around the room like crazy, "Yan Yan, come here."

Luo Yan ran around the room and found women's clothes of other sizes in the suite, indicating that someone was living with Xiang Yu.

The application materials for building a factory on the table are for a rubber factory, but there are no rubber trees planted in Jiangcheng. If a rubber factory is built, the transportation cost will be higher than the price of raw materials.

So why not build factories in provinces where rubber trees are planted in large numbers? This is very puzzling.

Moreover, although there was environmental awareness in this era, it was not widespread. Once a rubber factory was built, whether environmental protection measures could be implemented effectively became a problem.

Hearing Xiang Yu call her, Luo Yan ran over.

"Yanyan, where is Daddy?"

Luo Yan blinked her big eyes and, as if imitating someone, said, "Daddy, Daddy."

"Yes, where's Dad?"

Luo Yan clutched her shoulder, cried out, and collapsed to the ground.

Xiang Yu frowned. "Then who brought Luo Yan here? Where is she?"

Luo Yan got up from the ground and looked at Xiang Yu as if she didn't understand.

Xiang Yu picked up Luo Yan and stood at the window, "Show your auntie where Yan Yan came from?"

Luo Yan pointed her little finger out the window and drew a circle.

"Are you pretending to be confused with me?" Xiang Yu asked, his face darkening.

She didn't believe that Xiao Biga, who would order the signature dish at Fangshan Restaurant, wouldn't understand what she was asking.

"I'm just pretending with you, what can you do about it?" Luo Yan's eyes were clear, and she covered her mouth with her two small hands and laughed when Xiang Yu deliberately put on a stern face to scare her.

"If you don't tell me, I'll throw you out."

Luo Yan laughed even harder, and even teased Xiang Yu with animated gestures, giggling non-stop.

Kids are all attention-seekers, and Xiang Yu simply couldn't take it seriously.

Xiang Yu sighed as if he couldn't do anything about Luo Yan, and let Luo Yan stand on the ground.

"I can't contact your parents until I find out how you got here. Yan Yan, don't you miss your parents?"

"Mom has protection at the Municipal Bureau, and Dad's life is safe in the hospital, so she felt at ease coming to find the bad guy and find out the truth. It's a pity you don't know that," Luo Yan said with a smile, hugging Xiang Yu.

"Auntie, Auntie..."

"What, now that you have an aunt, you don't want your mom and dad anymore?" Xiang Yu didn't realize that there was a hint of smugness in her tone.

Luo Yan nodded her little head, and Xiang Yu suddenly wasn't so angry anymore.

"What does Yan Yan want to eat for lunch?"

Luo Yan, who was indeed a little hungry, opened her small handbag and took out all the snacks that Luo Shicheng had packed for her and gave them to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu accepted the gifts with both hands and asked Luo Yan in surprise, "Auntie, are you giving them all to her?"

Luo Yan nodded, then took back another piece of beef jerky and ate it herself.

Children are usually possessive of their food, so it was rare for Luo Yan to give her all her food. Xiang Yu was charmed by Luo Yan and put all the snacks back into Luo Yan's small handbag. She then picked up Luo Yan and said...

"Come on, Auntie will take Yan Yan to eat."

Guests at the guesthouse can use their accommodation cards with their room numbers to buy meals at the factory canteen. When Xiang Yu took Luo Yan out, they found that the door across the hall was not closed properly, and it seemed that there were guests inside.

Xiang Yu went downstairs, helped Luo Yan into the Dodge parked in front of the guesthouse, and drove himself to the cafeteria.

Upon arriving at the cafeteria, Xiang Yu let Luo Yan choose her own dishes.

Ordering food in the cafeteria is quite convenient. Luo Yan would order any dish that looked good, and after ordering four dishes, she would stop.

Xiang Yu ordered another plate of vegetarian dumplings and a corn pancake as her main dish, and sat down to eat with Luo Yan.

Luo Yan loves corn fritters and ate a big piece, but the vegetables were so-so and she didn't eat much.

As she was eating, Luo Yan noticed Ni Guanying carrying a lunchbox and walking towards them alone.

Ni Guanying saw Luo Yan and was about to speak when he noticed that the person sitting with Luo Yan was not Zhang Jue. He then randomly found a seat and sat down with his back to Luo Yan.

Luo Yan ate the last piece of corn fritter and patted her tummy.

"Are you full?" Xiang Yu touched Luo Yan's bulging belly.

Luo Yan nodded, and Xiang Yu smiled faintly.

"When I asked you how you got here, you gave me a bunch of nonsense, but when I asked if you were full, you answered readily."

Xiang Yu was suspicious, so Luo Yan let her say whatever she wanted, pretending not to understand, and climbed off the chair and ran to Ni Guanying.

I'm already pretending I don't know you, why are you still coming over to provoke me? Ni Guanying frowned as he looked at the little rascal in front of him.

Xiang Yu wasn't stupid. She had already noticed Ni Guanying's stunned expression when he saw her, and there was no way to hide it. So she decided to take the initiative.
