Chapter 59: 059, Missing the little wolf cub (Third update)

Unless the person in the shadows already knew the purpose of Wo Te’s visit to City A and, therefore, took preemptive action against him. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Li Mochan’s dark pupils slightly tensed, and his voice was chillingly cold, "Did the hotel surveillance catch any suspicious individuals?"

"The person behind the assassination attempt on Wo Te was well-prepared, all surveillance around five in the morning was wiped clean," Wei Bei said.

Li Mochan’s fingertips curled lightly as he tapped on the sofa, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"Could it be the Bour Family, aware of Wo Te’s movements, sought the opportunity to get rid of him in one fell swoop?" Wei Bei speculated.

After all, one less heir benefits all of Wo Te’s brothers without exception.

"It’s not them," a cold voice spilled from his lips.

Li Mochan’s unfathomable, black gaze flickered with a trace of cold light, "Tell Wei Xi, by any means necessary, we must dig out the person who hijacked that shipment."

"Understood." Wei Bei’s expression turned stern.

Could it be the same people who stole their cargo?

Li Mochan said, "Move up the meeting with Kedun Group, we set off in ten minutes, after dinner is over, we return to the capital tonight."

"I’ll go prepare." After speaking, Wei Bei turned and walked out.

There was only one reason his master was in a hurry to return to the capital.

He wanted to see someone.

Li Mochan lifted his gaze to the teddy bear on the bed, a slight smile surfaced on his tightly pursed lips.

Seems like the little wolf cub had an exam today.

...

After the exam in the afternoon, Ye Jiuliang did not wander around but went straight back to the Ye Family.

By the time she woke up, it was already dark outside.

Just as she had gotten out of bed, Aren came to call her for dinner.

Still in her school uniform, with sleeves loosely rolled up, she strolled slowly, following behind Aren.

Upon arrival at the dining room, she found that almost everyone was already there.

As per her usual habit, she took a seat at the very end of the table.

When Ye Miao saw her, his appetite vanished.

"Jiuliang, where did you run off to last night?" The Old Master Ye began to interrogate her with a stern face before they even started eating.

Feeling everyone’s eyes on her, Ye Jiuliang replied indifferently, "VI Club."

Old Master Ye frowned, "What did you go there for?"

"To play games," she said.

...

Old Master Ye, with his mustache twitching in anger, "You had an exam today, yet you still went out to play games last night; are you just waiting to be expelled by Beisen?"

Facing the Old Master’s fury, Ye Jiuliang let out two words, "Won’t happen."

"What won’t happen?" Old Master Ye asked, still quite irritated.

Ye Jiuliang clarified, "You get expelled for failing."

Old Master Ye was half-convinced, "So, you’re saying you can pass this time?"

Ye Jiuliang nodded.

Hearing this, Old Master Ye finally calmed down.

"Alright, let’s eat."

At the dining table, everyone ate quietly.

Save for the occasional clinking of bowls and utensils.

...

"Cut."

A hoarse male voice, tinged with frustration.

The staff at the filming site all stopped their work, the tension apparent on their faces.

The director suddenly stood up, toppling his chair with his exaggerated movements, and bellowed, "Zhang Nianlei, can you even act? How many NGs is that now; you can’t even get your lines right, what are you even doing here?"

It had been the same scene for two consecutive days, and the crew members were still somewhat intimidated by the director’s roar.

All eyes turned to the woman who was being scolded to a pulp by the director, some sympathetic but more were schadenfreuding.

She had no acting skills but relied on the financier behind her to join the crew and snatched a supporting actress role with funding.

Her performance was disjointed and faltering, clearly unprepared; and yet, the director of this film was known for being strict within the industry, so much so that even A-list actors would tread on eggshells while acting in his productions.
