Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 981: A Man of Principles


"I mentioned my background to you before, so obtaining this information isn't difficult." An Meihui said.

Ye Xiao said, "True enough."

An Meihui said, "I also know that someone wants to harm you. What I want to say is, I can help you."

"Help me?" Ye Xiao immediately laughed and said, "How will you help me?"

"Who do you want to find the most right now?" An Meihui asked.

"You can help me find them?" Ye Xiao looked at An Meihui in surprise.

An Meihui chuckled and said, "In Bird City, although I'm not as powerful as you in terms of damage, when it comes to gathering information, I think I'm better than you."

"True indeed, Rothschild's businesses are all over the world, they must have plenty of eyes and ears." Ye Xiao said admiringly.

An Meihui smiled and said, "I told you, you help me eliminate Fu Tianjue, and I'll help you. Since I said it, I'll definitely do it."

Ye Xiao really didn't expect that An Meihui would keep her promises so well. Wait a minute, if An Meihui's subordinates are so good at investigating, the person Ye Xiao wants to find the most right now is Wu Laoliu. It might be better to let An Meihui help him find Wu Laoliu. He currently has no leads, wandering aimlessly in Bird City like a headless fly, possibly causing more trouble and even finding a bunch of enemies instead of Wu Laoliu, which would be disastrous.

However, Ye Xiao thought it over and felt it wouldn't work. Telling An Meihui he is looking for Wu Laoliu might lead to a quick find, but An Meihui is not an ordinary person, she is quite smart and Rothschild's people are all over the world. If she finds out what Wu Laoliu represents, what should he do?

An Meihui is not scary, Rothschild's influence in Yan Country is also not scary. What is scary is the true strength of Rothschild.

Ye Xiao is indeed very arrogant, but if you say let him compete with Rothschild now, it would undoubtedly be like eggs hitting against a stone. Ye Xiao would never do such a thing.

So, Ye Xiao thought it over and finally said, "The person I want to find most right now, I don't know his name, only know he has a title called 'Liuyue'. I wonder if Sister An can help me find this person."

"Liuyue?" An Meihui thought for a moment hearing this, then said, "This name seems somewhat familiar, should belong to a special organization in Yan Country."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiao couldn't help but be secretly shocked. An Meihui really knows a lot, but he doesn't know if she knows his true identity.

Ye Xiao was surprised, but his expression remained calm, saying, "Probably, but it's not important what organization he's from, what's important is that I want to find him."

"Okay, I'll get back to you with information soon." An Meihui said.

Ye Xiao said, "In that case, I must thank Sister An."

"You just said we shouldn't be strangers, how come you're being polite now?" An Meihui said with a witty smile.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but be secretly enchanted. An Meihui is indeed a charming person.

"It's my fault." Ye Xiao said.

An Meihui said, "Alright, you should be looking for someone, so I won't keep you. However, if you have time, call me, I definitely want to treat you to a meal."

"Definitely, definitely!" Ye Xiao said.

Then, An Meihui left Dongning Building with her people.

Dressed in a professional outfit, so that people can't see any difference between this beautiful woman and other white-collar workers.

Ye Xiao walked back to the elevator and continued waiting for it.

Soon, the elevator door finally opened, and seven or eight people came out. Just as Ye Xiao was about to enter the elevator, a girl walking with her head down suddenly lost hold of her files due to the crowd, causing them to scatter all over the floor.

Helping beautiful girls has always been Ye Xiao's lifelong aspiration, so he immediately crouched down to help this girl pick up her things.

The girl, seeing someone helping her pick up files, immediately said gratefully, "Thank you."

But when she looked up, she froze for a moment, and so did Ye Xiao.

"It's you!" Ye Xiao looked at the girl, his face smiling, saying, "Looks like we really are quite destined to meet."

The girl was none other than Li Sitong.

Li Sitong worked in Dongning Building, but which company she worked for, Ye Xiao did not know. He wasn't concerned about it either.

Meeting Li Sitong here can be considered as expected yet unexpected.

Li Sitong heard Ye Xiao's words and didn't dislike him as she used to, instead, she gave a mocking smile and said, "That's what you think, right?"

"Maybe, are you getting off work?" Ye Xiao asked.

Li Sitong said, "Yes!"

"Alright, then please go ahead." Ye Xiao said.

Li Sitong was unaccustomed to Ye Xiao's brisk and straightforward response, she paused for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Ye Xiao looked at Li Sitong, saying, "Do you really want me to say I'll treat you to a meal and then be rejected by you? I tell you, I'm quite smart."

"I think it's being too clever, I won't necessarily refuse." Li Sitong still didn't like letting Ye Xiao have the upper hand.

Hearing this, Ye Xiao immediately chuckled and said, "Really? Well then, let me treat you to a meal. I wonder if the Eldest Miss Li would do me the honor?"

Li Sitong hadn't expected Ye Xiao to be so good at seizing a chance.

"Fine, you win. I'm busy today, I have to go to the gym." Li Sitong rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao and left with that remark.

"Gym?" Watching Li Sitong leave, Ye Xiao could only smile wryly. Such a graceful figure, yet still needs to work out? How are those with barrel-like waists supposed to live!

When Ye Xiao realized it, the elevator door had closed again. No choice, just keep waiting.

About three minutes later, the elevator finally came down, still the same bunch of people. However, fewer people were going up now, so it was just Ye Xiao going up. He walked into the elevator and was about to close the door when he suddenly heard someone shouting, "Hold the elevator!"

Ye Xiao's reflexes were quick, and he immediately pressed the door button, opening it again.

At that moment, Fang Jing and Xia Mingyue approached, seeing Ye Xiao in the elevator, they couldn't help but smile.

Two beauties in business attire walked into the elevator, and Ye Xiao immediately grinned and said, "Hey, beauties, what a coincidence."

"Yeah!" Fang Jing chimed in. "You came to work too?"

"Yeah, just got here!" Ye Xiao replied.

Fang Jing and Xia Mingyue were rendered speechless.

"Where did you go this afternoon?" Fang Jing finally got down to business.

Ye Xiao said, "Where did you go?"

"Of course we were handling serious matters, unlike you, always playing around, completely unreliable." Fang Jing said disdainfully.

Ye Xiao was too lazy to argue with Fang Jing and turned to Xia Mingyue, saying, "Looks like you guys reaped quite a bit, huh."

Xia Mingyue nodded and said, "Yeah, He Huawei agreed to all our conditions."

"Looks like he's quite sensible." Ye Xiao laughed.

"Could he not be?" Fang Jing said at this time, "When we went to the Guard Bureau, we were interrogated three times before we could see He Huawei. Now He Huawei lacks his former grace, you could describe him as quite miserable. Even when He Yougen went to see He Huawei, the Guard Bureau was tough and wouldn't let him in. He Yougen still hasn't seen He Huawei."

Hearing this, Ye Xiao couldn't help but be quite satisfied, thinking that Li Zhi knew how to handle things.

"It's all thanks to you this time!" Xia Mingyue sincerely looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao, hearing such heartfelt praise from Xia Mingyue, couldn't help but feel a bit shy and laughed, "With such sincere praise, I'm indeed embarrassed to flirt with you."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Xia Mingyue was momentarily speechless. What kind of logic was that?

It wasn't long before the three arrived at Blue Star Company. By then, a third of the staff had left, but all the company leaders were present.

So, when Xia Mingyue, Fang Jing, and Ye Xiao walked into the company, they immediately headed to the conference room.

"Do I have to go in too?" Ye Xiao scratched his head and looked at Xia Mingyue, "You guys have meetings, what am I going in for?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Mingyue rolled her eyes and said, "You're the deputy general manager, how can you not attend meetings?"

"I, the deputy general manager, don't even have an office. It's obviously just a titular position." Ye Xiao said, "So I still won't go."

Xia Mingyue immediately looked at Fang Jing and said, "You handle it, I'm going in first."

Watching Xia Mingyue leave, Fang Jing was speechless, clearly displeased that Xia Mingyue had dumped the Ye Xiao problem on her. But Fang Jing still looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Come on, give me some face, please."

"No, I said I'm not going and that's that." Ye Xiao insisted resolutely.

"You really won't go?" Fang Jing said, "I was actually thinking of rewarding you for your performance today. It seems like you don't want the reward."

Ye Xiao still said, "What reward? A man of integrity has his principles."

Fang Jing looked at Ye Xiao's serious face, chuckled softly, leaned in close, and said in a low voice, "I was going to reward you with a kiss, but since you don't seem to care, never mind. You stay here, I'm going in."

"Wait!" Ye Xiao suddenly said, as Fang Jing was about to walk into the conference room.

Fang Jing immediately said, "You're a man of principles, you shouldn't change your mind."

"You're right, I'm a man of principles, but even the most principled man only has one principle when it comes to his wife." Ye Xiao said even more earnestly.

"What's that?" Fang Jing asked.

"Listen to the wife!" Ye Xiao replied.

Fang Jing was left speechless, rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao, and said, "Could you be less shamelessly serious?"

Ye Xiao paid no mind to Fang Jing's disdain. Instead, he suddenly grinned and whispered to Fang Jing, "When's that kiss coming? I'm afraid you can't wait any longer!"
