Chapter 107 Who exactly is talking nonsense?
It is said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
Mo Yue is indeed very courageous.
But it's unclear whether she can warm Huo Yubai's heart.
Mo Yue handed me the thermos: "Professor Shen, drink this chicken soup. Goodnight."
I closed the door.
I found it somewhat funny.
midnight.
I am sleeping.
Someone is banging on the door.
I got up in frustration and opened the door.
Huo Yubai stood at the door in a thin nightgown, his dark eyes looking at me pitifully: "Please take me in."
I asked, still half asleep, "What happened to your room?"
“There are rats,” he replied.
mouse?
"It's winter now, where did these mice come from?" I wondered.
"I don't know, it was huge." Huo Yubai coughed. "I heard that some of the birds of prey here carry viruses, and I'm still recovering from my cold."
What he said wasn't without merit.
What kind of bird of prey is a rat?
However, rats do carry many viruses.
"Come in. The hotel staff will disinfect your room when it gets light." I turned around.
Huo Yubai came in, and he closed the door.
Once inside the room, he took off his shoes and went straight to bed.
I:"……"
"Cough cough." Huo Yubai coughed even more violently.
I walked over and said, "Give me your hand."
He obediently extended his left hand.
I gently placed my fingers on his wrist to check his pulse, and frowned slightly: "What's wrong? You seem to have a fever again?"
"I don't know," he said in a hoarse voice.
I turned around to get the medicine.
He sat up.
I then noticed that his clothes were a little damp: "Did you come out right after taking a shower?"
"Yes." He nodded. "Rats are terrifying."
I frowned: "Then you should wear a coat. You've only just recovered from your illness and are still very weak. Now that you're better, you've caught a cold again."
He took the medicine: "I'm a grown man, used to being rough around the edges. If I suddenly get sick, I don't know how to take care of myself."
They really know how to make excuses.
"Didn't Murray arrange someone for you?" I raised an eyebrow.
"I don't like it." He lay down.
I laughed in exasperation: "Huo Yubai, you really don't consider yourself an outsider anymore. If you're sleeping in the bed, where am I supposed to sleep?"
This hotel is a very ordinary hotel; there are only two chairs in the room, no sofa at all.
He occupied the only bed.
“Over there,” he pointed to the other side of the bed, “I sleep very quietly and don’t kick people.”
"I really want to kick you right now!" I was speechless.
"Okay, then kick it gently," he mumbled, half-asleep.
It seems the medicine is working.
I sighed.
I comforted myself by telling myself not to get angry with a patient.
Let's have someone go to his room tomorrow and see what kind of mouse is scaring him like that.
Sleepiness crept in.
I lay down, keeping a certain distance from him, and decided to go to sleep first.
-
I slept until I naturally woke up.
By now, sunlight was streaming in.
Snow stopped.
The snow is melting.
I slept alone in bed, and there was no trace of anyone else having slept there.
Did I dream last night?
There was a knock on the door outside.
I tidied myself up and opened the door.
Mo Lei stood outside the door, his handsome face tinged with anxiety: "Have you seen Mo Yue?"
"No." I asked, puzzled, "Why are you asking me?"
“She’s gone,” Murray replied.
"She's gone, you can call the police. You're asking me, do you think I got rid of her?" I asked sarcastically, "or do you think we were so close that we could have a heart-to-heart talk all night?"
Murray remained silent.
"There's something wrong with the brains of you Mo family members," I said, closing the door.
Liang Hui sent me a message saying he was having dinner at the restaurant downstairs and asked me to come over.
I changed my clothes and went downstairs.
The restaurant was bustling at lunchtime; everyone was there.
Huo Yubai, Gu Heng, and even Mo Lei were having a meal.
However, the three of them each had their own table.
Because it's a buffet, and with the snow these past two days, everyone's gathered here.
People often share tables in restaurants.
No one dared to approach the table where only the three of them sat.
Liang Hui was eating his noodles in silence.
I prepared some food for myself first, then sat down and asked, "How is it?"
“The other party is very tight-lipped. I asked them all night and tried all sorts of methods, but they wouldn’t tell me anything. However, they finally told me that someone was putting pressure on them, but they couldn’t say who it was and asked us not to ask anymore,” Liang Hui said.
I understood: "In other words, the autopsy report is problematic."
Liang Hui nodded: "Those poachers are from abroad, no one cares about their lives."
"This person is quite clever." I took a sip of soup. "Can we leave today?"
“Not yet.” Liang Hui explained, “It’s been snowing heavily these past two days. Even though it’s stopped snowing now, the roads are icy, and it’s too risky for us to drive to the airport.”
"Yes, safety is the most important thing." I nodded.
"I heard Mo Yue is missing." Liang Hui looked at me.
I was surprised: "She's not at the hotel?"
“Mo Lei has searched with his men, but they haven’t found him,” Liang Hui whispered. “He’s suspicious of everyone now.”
"I knew it, he came to ask me this so early in the morning." I pinched the bridge of my nose.
Suddenly.
Mo Lei stood up: "It seems everyone is here. I have something to announce. My sister, Mo Yue, went missing last night. If any of you have seen her or know anything about her, please tell me. I will reward you handsomely."
Gu Heng gave a cold laugh: "Late last night, I saw Mo Yue go to President Huo's room. She knocked on the door and went in, and then she didn't come out."
And this thing?
I ate my wontons while looking at Huo Yubai.
Huo Yubai said casually, "I didn't sleep in my own room last night, so I don't know what you mean by that?"
Gu Heng probably didn't see Huo Yubai come out.
"Mo Lei, if you don't believe me, you can search my room. If you don't find anything, you and Gu Heng should apologize to me properly." Huo Yubai said casually.
"If you're not sleeping in your own room, where are you sleeping, on the street?" Gu Heng said sarcastically.
"Where I sleep is none of your business," Huo Yubai said coldly. "Mo Lei, there are security cameras in the hotel, or you can call the police and investigate on your own. Are you trying to settle a personal score?"
“All I know is that she went to Shen Yan’s room last night,” Mo Lei said.
I remained calm: "Are you trying to frame me?"
"She went out so late and saw you. She's the daughter of the Mo family and is going to marry into the Huo family. You're jealous of her. Who else could it be but you?" Mo Lei looked at me coldly.
I was amused: "Mo Lei, I thought you were very smart, but it turns out you're not so bright. Me, jealous of her? Does she deserve it? I've never even been jealous of Mo Ruchu."
Huo Yubai looked at me intently.
"I really don't know what you're thinking. If I, Shen Yan, want to be Mrs. Huo, can you stop me?" I questioned.
No one knows better than me how much Huo Yubai likes me.
If I agree to his request, he will definitely marry me.
Mo Lei sneered: "Do you think you can join the Huo family? I heard your mother is just an adopted daughter of the Han family. You have no background at all, yet you want to marry into a wealthy family. Who is dreaming?"
