Stolen Life of the Poor Girl, Top Luxury Family's Group Favor

Chapter 145

Wei Wenjuan set off to handle the overseas shipping route affairs. As soon as he arrived, informants relayed the news to Ke Muning's ears.

"The target has been drawn out. Will you return now?" a subordinate asked on the phone.

"Just him alone?"

"Yes, just one person."

"How did Wei Xuanming bring himself to delegate authority to his crippled son to handle business matters?"

The person on the other end of the line couldn't answer.

But Ke Muning didn't really need an answer. He immediately cursed, "Cowardly turtle! Spineless creature!"

He was cursing Wei Lin.

After listening, the subordinate asked again, "Will you return now?"

Ke Muning pursed his lips without speaking.

It would be very appropriate to rush over and kill Wei Wenjuan now. But would the benefits be too small if he acted now?

He should patiently wait until the benefits were maximized.

For example, using the child's hand to clean out the Ghost family in one fell swoop.

If he left now, he would have to immediately expose the child's disguise. Should he continue to pretend not to know and wait for a chance to meet again in the future to keep up the act?

Ke Muning rarely had such scattered thoughts.

He thought, perhaps it was because there were too many choices...

While Ke Muning hadn't yet answered his subordinate's question, there was suddenly a knock at the door.

Knock knock knock, knock knock knock, very rhythmically.

"Ke Muning, Ke Muning." Li Xiaoya called his name from outside the door.

The English name sounded as soft as "hello" coming from her mouth.

Ke Muning quickly hung up the phone and turned to ask in a teasing tone, "What's wrong, little princess? Are you still thinking about that shadow in the flower bed, too scared to sleep alone?"

As he spoke, he strode over to open the door.

Outside, Li Xiaoya had already changed into soft pajamas.

It must be said that Ke Muning was actually a bit better at raising children than the Old Master. The Old Master appeared refined on the outside but was harsh and autocratic on the inside. Apart from caring about Li Xiaoya's various performances and giving her plenty of money, he hadn't paid attention to other details.

As for Ke Muning, the more indifferent and quiet Li Xiaoya seemed, the more enthusiastic he became about having his subordinates buy her soft, colorful things.

Now Li Xiaoya's pajamas had a huge pink cat head printed on them.

Ke Muning first looked at the pink cat on her with satisfaction, then shifted his gaze—

He found that she wasn't hugging a pillow or a doll.

Completely different from the image of a little girl in common fairy tales who comes asking for company because of a nightmare.

It seems fairy tales are indeed just used to deceive children.

Ke Muning coldly clicked his tongue and bent down.

Li Xiaoya spoke at this time: "I'm going out tomorrow."

She needs to inform him about going out?

Ke Muning asked with pleasure, "Where to? Finally going home?"

Now that piqued his interest.

Li Xiaoya shook her head and said, "To a friend's house."

She had agreed last week to visit Sheng Yuxiao's home, so of course she had to keep her word.

But Ke Muning frowned tightly, his face looking even colder.

"Friend? How do you have so many friends? Today you're going to a friend's birthday party, tomorrow you're going to a friend's house?"

"Do you know? For adults, nine out of ten friends are fake. It's not worth spending time on them. You should study English properly tomorrow."

Li Xiaoya looked up at him: "Everything you say is right, but I'm not an adult."

"..."

"But you'll grow up eventually, so understanding this principle early isn't a bad thing."

Li Xiaoya paused and said, "Ke Muning has no friends."

Ke Muning: "..."

He pinched her cheek: "Madmen don't need friends!"

They had discussed this issue before on the island.

At that time, Li Xiaoya had hit the nail on the head, and Ke Muning had nearly eaten the child alive on the spot.

Later, Li Xiaoya's words had diverted him to another topic, so the conversation hadn't continued.

But now Li Xiaoya brought it up again.

Li Xiaoya grabbed Ke Muning's hand that was pinching her cheek and tried to pull it away, but couldn't.

His wrist was too thick compared to hers; her five fingers couldn't even grasp it.

She could only say with puffed cheeks, "Without friends, you also don't have more trustworthy business partners."

"We talked about this last time, there are always people who don't mind, like Wang..."

"I am your friend. If I make many friends, then you will have many friends too," Li Xiaoya finished the rest of her words.

Ke Muning's voice came to an abrupt halt.

This Germanic man's expression changed from a cold freeze to slowly transform into something strange and a barely perceptible shock, finally settling into calmness.

He said, "Go ahead then."

Li Xiaoya nodded, and sensing that the force of his hand had loosened, she quickly shrank her head back and returned to her bedroom to sleep.

But Ke Muning found himself unable to sleep.

He tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

No wonder people always call young ones little angels...

No wonder mercenaries with families are willing to send all their hard-earned money back to their wives and children.

He didn't have a wife.

But he had a child now.

However, this child could only be considered "stolen".

How could the Ghost family deserve to have her? They didn't!

As Ke Muning thought about this, he suddenly turned and sat up in bed. Wait, was she saying these things on purpose to act? Deliberately trying to coax him?

Ke Muning couldn't sleep at all now.

The next day, a wealthy person invited him to dinner. Ke Muning rarely accepted, instead of choosing to personally send Li Xiaoya to her friend's house.

Several of Ke Muning's subordinates took on this important task.

These fierce-looking subordinates, whose features were not even as handsome as Ke Muning's, had previously scared Li Xiaoya's classmates to tears.

However, in front of Li Xiaoya, they could be considered "gentle".

"Please," they said, opening the car door while handing her a small blanket, and then taking her thermos with a rabbit pattern on it to carry for her.

Among Ke Muning's subordinates, there were speakers of various languages.

Some had even poorer English skills than Li Xiaoya.

Due to the language barrier, they appeared taciturn.

But Li Xiaoya didn't know that they actually quite liked her.

Except for some war maniacs and some anti-human fanatics, what normal person wouldn't like such a young one?

Moreover, Li Xiaoya had previously defended them in front of her classmates.

To them, this was very gratifying.

Even though she was a child of the Ghost family.

But their boss had many things that were stolen, so what was wrong with stealing a person?

No problem!

The car drove all the way to 92 Huayang Road, and Li Xiaoya told them, "We're here."

The subordinates looked out the window in confusion.

Outside was a large shopping mall with people coming and going.

Her friend's house was here?

These foreigners weren't very familiar with the cities of Hua Country after all, so they could only follow her directions.

Li Xiaoya got out of the car and walked straight into the mall, then called Sheng Yuxiao.

The subordinates drove away in the car.

Meanwhile, Sheng Yuxiao's car sped towards her.

The young master Sheng hadn't seen her for some time and walked very urgently. He crossed through the crowd, over the steps, and came to the entrance of the mall.

Li Xiaoya stood there, very eye-catching.

"I heard that yesterday was Qin Sui's birthday party..." As soon as the young master Sheng approached, he immediately followed with, "You went?"
