Chapter 445: Chapter 446: Is Miss Xi this harsh on her own father?
Xia Yangyang walked over.
The people there also saw Xia Yangyang.
They took off their earphones and closed their laptops.
Then, one of them extended a hand in a professional manner and shook hands with Xia Yangyang, “I’m Xi Zijun.”
Xia Yangyang shook her hand, “Xia Yangyang, pleased to meet you.”
Xi Zijun’s smile was professional, but she seemed very friendly, “I’ve heard about you, Miss Xia, please take a seat.”
Xia Yangyang sat down.
Xi Zijun began, “I apologize for my sudden and impolite call to you today, Miss Xia. I hope you don’t mind.”
“No problem, Miss Xi, let’s cut to the chase, why are you looking for me?”
Xi Zijun smiled, “No rush, the main purpose of today is to make friends with Miss Xia. We can eat and chat.”
After speaking, she called a waiter over.
Xia Yangyang looked around. The place was very quiet.
The entire hall was just their table.
Xia Yangyang was somewhat curious, “Miss Xi is really generous, there are no more than ten people in the whole city who could reserve the entire YunDing Restaurant.”
Xi Zijun took a sip of water, “Miss Xia, you’re flattering me. Being a public figure and famous in the entertainment industry, I thought you might not want to be disturbed.”
The dishes, which had clearly been ordered in advance, were quickly served.
Xia Yangyang was surprised to see that they were all dishes she liked.
The ones she often used to order at the YunDing Restaurant.
Xia Yangyang was a bit taken aback.
Xi Zijun calmly explained, “In order to show our importance, I did some research on Miss Xia’s preferences.”
“Who did you ask?” Xia Yangyang reflexively asked.
When Xia Yangyang used to come to YunDing Restaurant, she most often came with Gu Qichen.
Gu Qichen naturally knew her preferences like the back of his hand and usually ordered in advance.
“Miss Xia may not be aware, but YunDing Restaurant keeps a record of the dishes ordered by its frequent guests, so it wasn’t difficult to find out.”
Weirdly, Xia Yangyang felt a sense of relief.
But she also felt a hint of disappointment she couldn’t explain.
After all, she was about to divorce Gu Qichen.
Why does she still care so much?
Xia Yangyang laughed, “Miss Xi, you’re very attentive.”
Xi Zijun continued, “To get to the point, the reason I’m looking for you Miss Xia, is because of Liu Ruyan. I was wondering if you’ve heard anything unusual about your stepmother.”
Xia Yangyang didn’t hide anything and replied calmly, “I saw her playing golf with my father at the club.”
Xia Yangyang stopped there.
But the two of them understood the unspoken implications.
Xi Zijun said, “Then let me speak frankly. Your father is now in the hospital struggling with death, while Liu Ruyan is leisurely playing golf. This shows her bad character. My parents are currently going through a divorce, and I am not willing for such a woman to become my stepmother. Therefore, I hope Miss Xia can cooperate with me and ruin this woman’s plans.”
Xia Yangyang had some reservations.
It seemed like Xi Zijun saw through Xia Yangyang’s thoughts, “Of course, our cooperation would be based on the premise of not hurting the Xia Family’s interests and Uncle Xia’s reputation. You can rest assured about that.”
“How do you expect us to cooperate?”
“At present, my father has entrusted an important project to Liu Ruyan for negotiation. My goal is simple, the negotiations for this project cannot succeed. Therefore, I need to know all the details of Liu Ruyan’s daily routine.”
Xia Yangyang frowned, “But I don’t know anything about this.”
Xi Zijun handed over a thin chip as delicate as a cicada’s wing, “This is a latest tracking device. Miss Xia, if you get a chance, I hope you could stick it on her phone. Don’t worry, this device can change color according to the texture and color of the phone, won’t be detected, and will automatically decompose after a period of time, leaving no trace. As a reward, I also put one on my father’s phone. Later, I’ll send you the program and you’ll know my father’s whereabouts.”
Xia Yangyang suddenly laughed, “Miss Xi, are you this ruthless with your own father too?”
