Chapter 838: A Face to Face Meeting

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

After parting ways with Grandma Su and walking home alone, it suddenly occurred to me:

If Su Qiao was really imprisoned in Dong Shan City, then there was a high chance that there was another person who was imprisoned in the same place as Su Qiao.

It would be Tie Xian, the one who had his jaw dislocated and his ribs broken by my Yin Yang Sanshou.

The one who saved Tie Xian was Dr. Yu, but the ones who took the seriously injured Tie Xian away was obviously another team.

The first time I met with Dr. Yu, I asked him where Tie Xian was receiving treatment, but Dr. Yu refused to tell me because Ai ShuQiao intended to put him to use and didn’t authorize Dr. Yu to be honest with me.

After Tie Xian’s injuries were stabilized, Dr. Yu stopped any follow-up appointments. I have no idea whether Tie Xian has been or transferred or not, but I’m guessing even Dr. Yu might not know.

The secret team under Ai ShuQiao’s control in Dong Shan City has an unknown number of members, an unknown leader, and an unknown goal.

I wracked my brains and could only guess that they have a connection to Tian Mu Xing Guang company and Ai ShuQiao is the boss behind the scenes. Even if Fu ShiJian, the person in charge, was killed, but also he could be replaced by a new person.

As I was about to walk through my home’s entrance, my phone began to vibrate. I took a look and the caller was Shu Zhe.

“Hey, do you need me for something? Is it because you scammed so many elementary school students and you feel…”

“Hello, I’m Sha Sha and Xiao Zhe’s mother.”

An elegant and gentle female voice came through the speakers.

I was shocked: it was the class leader’s mother! I remember her name was Lin YuMeng. She was a researcher in a vaccine research institute in Shanghai, but her beauty was comparable to a movie star’s. Why was the class leader’s mother calling me?

“A, auntie hello.” I stuttered a bit, because I felt slightly guilty when talking to the class leader and Shu Zhe’s mom.

First, I had spanked Shu Zhe’s ass while he was wearing women’s clothing. Next, I had mistaken his sister for him and hit the class leader so much that she couldn’t ride a bike for a week. That alone made me not have the courage to face their mother.

Lin YuMeng, who didn’t know what I was thinking about, still spoke in a tone as warm as the spring breeze.

“I’ll just call you Ye Lin. Ye Lin, if it’s convenient, can you come to our house tomorrow after school? I have some things I want to talk to you about.”

Huh, why do I feel an inexplicable pressure? What exactly does the class leader’s mom want to talk to me about? Is she going to tell me to not bully Shu Sha after I marry her?

“Um, Auntie, aren’t you only in Dong Shan City for a few more days? If I go tomorrow, then you will have less alone time with Shu Sha and I don’t think it’s appropriate.”

I subconsciously began to reject because I was still a bit timid.

“I’ve already booked a plane ticket for the morning after tomorrow, so my only chance to talk to you is tomorrow.”

“Why do you have to meet me before you leave…”

“Do you not want to meet me?”

“No, no, I would love to meet you…”

That wasn’t really a lie, because seeing the class leader’s mom will give me a good dea of what the class leader will look like in the future. So I would love to take a few looks at the class leader’s mom under the assumption that she doesn’t notice me.

But when I’m looking straight at someone, I feel stressed out, my mouth gets dry, my heart rate speeds up, which would all be bad for my health.

“Then you can come with Sha Sha tomorrow after school. I’ll prepare your favorite beef stewed with potatoes for dinner.”

“Auntie, how do you know I like to eat beef stewed with potatoes…”

What answered me was a refreshingly soft laugh.

“Not only do I know that you like beef stewed with potatoes, I also know that you’ve had frequent communication with Sha Sha and Xiao Zhe in the second semester in your second year. My neighbors have seen you coming in and out of my house many times… Since you’re their friend, would it be strange for me to want to meet you once before I go back to Shanghai?”

I found it hard to decline her after she told me that. I would frequently go to the class leader’s home to get free meals, but now her mother was openly inviting me to their home as a guest, but I didn’t want to go because I felt guilty.

“Alright, I’ll go tomorrow. I’ll be troubling you and the class leader…”

“It’s no trouble.” The class leader’s mom replied, “It’s only troublesome if you don’t come.”

I vaguely felt like there was a hidden meaning in her words. Although she invited me in a very kind and gentle manner, I had a hunch that going to the class leader’s house tomorrow wasn’t as simple as eating stewed beef with potatoes.

I wanted to call Shu Zhe and find out, but the class leader’s mother called me on Shu Zhe’s phone. If the one who answered the phone was still the class leader’s mother, what would I say?

Just as I started to go upstairs, Ai Mi called me.

“Damn manservant, who were you talking to just now? How dare you waste a precious 5 seconds of my time.”

“Don’t you waste 5 seconds all the time, also it’s… already 9:30. Why aren’t you going to sleep?”

“Hmph, just now Winnie and the others went to eat beer and grilled skewers. I asked her to bring me back a can of beer, but she actually didn’t agree…”

“Of course, it’s good Winnie didn’t buy you a drink. I’m the one who told her not to, it’s not the same as coke or chips. I’m not going to help you, so just forget about it.”

“I’m not happy.” Ai Mi said angrily after two seconds of silence.

“It doesn’t matter if you’re not happy, I’m not going to compromise on this.”

I then remembered that Ai Mi had pushed Grandma Su, who was spying on her, towards 004 and 005 in order to be able to get away and buy potato chips. She was quite headstrong and I’m afraid that it made Grandma Su really want to kidnap her at that time.

“Hey, I know you’re under a lot of pressure, but don’t always think of using extraordinary means to relieve stress. You shouldn’t be going to the supermarket to steal or drink. You especially shouldn’t push and shove the elderly, what are you going to do if they didn’t know martial arts and actually get injured?”

Ai Mi froze, “It sounds like you’re saying the old hag from the other day knows martial arts.”

“Don’t call her an old hag, at least call her an old lady, okay? Be more respectful to others, it would be good for you too.”

“Wow, I can’t believe you’re scolding me for pushing an old woman I don’t know. It seems like you don’t love me anymore. Besides, even if I respect others, will others respect me?”

“Who doesn’t respect you? Who dares to not respect you?”

“Who else but Katyusha!” Ai Mi squealed, “She and her accomplices forced me to dress up and wear other people’s childhood clothes in Gong CaiCai’s house. I’ll never forget the humiliation of being treated as a doll for the rest of my life.”

Fortunately, at least she said Gong CaiCai’s name correctly and didn’t say “Gong Cai Cow” or “Gong Milk Cow” as she did before, which is progress worth celebrating.

“The class leader just thinks you’re cute, like a kitten or a puppy…”

“Bastard, isn’t it even more humiliating to be treated like a kitten or puppy? I’ll definitely get my revenge since she disrespected me. I want her to serve me for a full day in a maid’s outfit. I’ve already asked Peng TouSi to prepare the clothes. Next, as long as you, the manservant, tricks Katyusha into coming here to the VIP building, I’ll be able to get my revenge.”

“Wait, how are you going to make the class leader wear the maid’s outfit? Are you going to let her be Obama’s master for a day in exchange? The class leader might love dogs, but she might not wear a maid’s outfit just for that.”

“Hmph, don’t worry about it, I have a plan.”

Ai Mi looked like she had it all figured out.

“Anyway, you just need to be responsible for getting Katyusha to come over, you don’t need to worry about the things that come after. And you’re also looking forward to seeing Katyusha in a maid outfit, aren’t you?”

I was tempted to say “no” , but then felt it would be shameful to lie.

“I bet you want Katyusha wear a maid outfit and then call you ‘master’, what a vulgar older brother.”

“You’re not allowed to call your brother vulgar! Also, what do you mean by you have a plan? You’re not allowed to use violence against the class leader, otherwise I won’t stand by and watch.”

“Tsk, would I have had to wait until today if Peng TouSi agreed to use violence against Katyusha? I’ve spent a lot of effort to get together all the things I need to make Katyusha voluntarily put on a maid’s outfit. Anyway, hurry up and bring Katyusha to the VIP building as soon as possible. I want to get rid of my bad mood.”

“What’s the point of this…”

“I just want to do it, I want to see Katyusha humiliated. If you don’t do it, then go buy me a drink, I want ten bottles of Maotai.”

“Okay, okay, don’t drink, I’ll see if I can get the class leader for you.”

This is great, right when the class leader’s mom invited me to her house as a guest, I scheduled in advance to make her daughter wear a maid’s outfit. I now feel even less qualified to eat that beef stewed with potatoes tomorrow.

Ai Mi also mentioned that she and Ai ShuQiao had a fight on the phone call they had tonight because of her acting arrangements. It seems like Ai ShuQiao moved up the shooting times for some of the advertisements where they already signed a contract.

In the end, Ai ShuQiao promised Ai Mi that although she would be a bit busy in the near future because of the advertisements, she would try to accept as few advertisements as possible in the future, and there might even be a day when she would not accept any advertisements at all. Ai Mi of course didn’t believe it but and could only lose her temper with her mother, but in the end she was still persuaded and gave in.

Ai ShuQiao’s actions kind of made it seem like she was trying to squeeze Ai Mi out of her remaining worth, but it also shows that she really wasn’t going to make Ai Mi stay in the entertainment industry for a long time.

I can’t believe my blood can actually make Ai ShuQiao give up the money tree (Ai Mi). Is she simply putting on an act for me or is she really planning to make some final profits before Ai Mi quits the entertainment industry.

Ai Mi finally mentioned that Ai ShuQiao was sitting on plane flying out of the United States when she spoke to her. Apparently, she will be absolutely unreachable for a few days after this.

Which country was she going to do illegal business in? Did she close off all contact with the outside world in order to keep the trip confidential? It seems like the plan to directly ask Ai ShuQiao where Su Qiao was locked up will have to be slightly delayed.
