<h4>Chapter 1449: Chapter 1462</h4>


    Xia Xuan nced upstairs, then nodded to Aunt Rong and said, "Aunt Rong, I heard Old Sir Ji was ill, so I came to Shanghai specifically to see him."


    Aunt Rong looked at Xia Xuan with some difficulty, "Old Master is not in the vi. His rtionship with the second young master is not particrly good, so..."


    Xia Xuan smiled, "I understand, never mind, where is Old Master’s hospital? I’ll go see him directly."


    Aunt Rong gave Xia Xuan the address of Ji Da’s hospital, and Xia Xuan left with the address.


    As soon as Xia Xuan left, Shen Yaoyao arrived. She looked surprised at the scene before her, this vi could rival Sister Mu’s vi, this Yunxi has indeed found herself a rich backer.


    "Yunxi, what’s the rtionship between you and this Wei Yu?" Shen Yaoyao stared at her and asked.


    Yunxi’s eyes darted away, she eximed, "Aren’t you here to see Chu Ge? Come on, I’ll take you there!"


    Only then did Shen Yaoyao remember her main goal, her face furious as she thought about that scoundrel Chu Ge, clenching her fist and shaking it, "I must teach him a lesson! It’s too much! He came back to Shanghai and didn’t evene home! And pretended not to know Sister Mu, causing her to worry so much!"


    Yunxi looked at Shen Yaoyao’s righteous indignation, couldn’t help but sigh, "Alright, let’s go, I’ll take you to the hotel!"


    With that, Yunxi took Shen Yaoyao to the five-star hotel where Chu Ge had stayed before, only to be told by the front desk that he had checked out two hours ago.


    Shen Yaoyao stomped her foot in anger, "This Chu Ge must be avoiding me on purpose!"


    "Not necessarily, don’t overthink it, and besides, he didn’t know we woulde looking for him today, right?"


    Shen Yaoyao thought about it and felt Yunxi made some sense, nodded and responded, "Right, why are you staying at Wei Yu’s ce? You’re not being kept by him, are you? Let me tell you, Wei Yu is not a good person!"


    Yunxi blushed, lowering her eyes to the ground, her toe tapping the floor, "Actually, no, I just agreed to pretend to be his girlfriend for a month, don’t worry, I’ll be gone soon."


    Shen Yaoyao pouted, "I don’t believe you, you think you can leave in a month? Don’t lie to me, what if you fall for him, and who’s going to be the one hurting then?"


    Yunxi’s lips twitched, and silently hooked her arm and left.


    As soon as they left, two people emerged from the shadows. Li Hua looked at Shen Yaoyao and Yunxi’s departing figures, clicking his tongue, "I knew it, if Wei Yu found out your address, someone woulde looking. By checking out early, now they can’t find us."


    Chu Ge watched Shen Yaoyao leave, frowning slightly, "Who’s that woman?"


    Li Hua rolled his eyes at him, "Why do you care who she is, she’s got nothing to do with you. Just remember, no one in this world has anything to do with you!"


    Chu Ge nced indifferently at Li Hua, a faint curve on his lips, "Even if you didn’t say it, I know. But right now, you should consider where we’re going to stay next, and when is the Elder Jian you’re talking abouting to find us?"


    Mentioning Jian Chunqiu, Li Hua scratched his head in confusion, "Ahh, I can’t say for sure. I’m wondering if Elder Jian had somethinge up. He hasn’te to find us yet, but he should be in Shanghai by now."


    Li Hua couldn’t figure it out. He couldn’t get in touch with Elder Jian either, so they had to wait for Elder Jian toe to them.


    Those looking for Elder Jian also included Nangong Yunxi and his group.


    Capital City.


    The deafening music pounded against her heart, and bodies gyrated wildly in the packed dance floor, the air thick with nicotine. Although this ce wasn’t the top bar, it was one of the best in City A.


    Yunxi didn’t linger long, bypassed the dance floor and went directly to the restroom, crouching in a corner, her eyes fixed on her phone’s screen, trying to memorize the face of a sleazy, sinister-looking old man.


    For her livelihood, and to break free of Nangong Yunxi’s control as soon as possible, she took on a side job—secret photography.


    "Why let someone who looks like this stay around?"


    That was Yunxi’s first reaction upon seeing the photo, but it was soon suppressed by another thought.


    "Well, a breakup fee with six zeros left behind is still something."


    A devilish voice whispered in her ear: Even the six zeros can’tpare to someone tossing seven zeros your way; just one more zero, but the difference is worlds apart.


    Wait, why is sheparing her situation to theirs, seriously...


    Taking a deep breath, Yunxi removed her coat and stood before the mirror, looking at the lovely reflection, her natural beauty ustomed to a bare face, now sporting red lips, longshes veiled by falseshes...


    Unable to bear looking at her appearance, Yunxi turned away from the mirror. This ghostly makeup might make people think she’s attending a masquerade ball.


    She double-checked the mini-camera, which fit perfectly inside her mini purse—everything was ready, and she had to seed. Yunxi motivated herself, appearing grand and dignified, like she was about to make a heroic sacrifice.


    She maneuvered to the entrance of a private room, and casually walked in. Inside, the music was even louder, and the pungent smell of alcohol hit her, causing her to gag.


    Enduring the nausea, she sat in the most inconspicuous corner, her lips curling into a standard An Family smile, her eyes lively, observing everyone in the room closely, and then...


    Yunxi frowned, why wasn’t the old man from the photo there?


    Feigning nonchnce, she took out her phone again to confirm, her peripheral vision catching someone getting up and heading towards her.


    Yunxi instinctively looked up, shiny leather shoes, well-tailored trousers, formal and fitting attire, and... that exquisitely handsome face, it’s him?!


    Yunxi hurriedly lowered her head, that cold, enticing face, expressionless, oh no! Even more intense! What was he doing here? Yunxi looked at the room number on the door, and wished she could gouge out her eyes, 3108!


    She was supposed to be in 3208!


    Yunxi shifted ufortably, her hair cascading over her shoulder; she drew the strands forward, trying to hide her face, unsure whether to get up. The man walked past her without stopping and left the room.


    Breathing a sigh of relief, he hadn’t noticed her—a guilty conscience of a thief. A whileter, she also got up and left, only to find Nangong Yunxi hadn’t left either, rather leaning against the wall, hands in pockets, profile unreadable...
