As for the person who could target Huo Jili so carefully and know him so well, Ye Mingqian could only think of one person.
"Chi Yanchen."
She whispered the name softly.
Ye Mingqian took out his phone and dialed.
"explain."
Chi Yanchen still spoke concisely.
"I want to see you."
The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds before he lazily said: "Old place."
"good."
Ye Mingqian hung up the phone and drove towards the city center.
The expensive villas in the city center of H City belong to the Huo family's real estate. One of them is where Chi Yanchen used to rest. It was also the place where she and Huo Jili had an affair before Ye Shirong gave her to him.
For convenience, she has the key to the villa.
As soon as I opened the door and walked in, I met Chi Yanchen coming down from the second floor in his nightgown. He seemed to have just taken a nap, with a look of laziness on his cold face.
"Sorry to disturb your rest."
Ye Mingqian put on slippers and apologized without sincerity.
"You shouldn't have come if you knew."
Chi Yanchen picked up the cup on the coffee table to drink water and glanced at her coldly: "Is something wrong?"
"have."
Ye Mingqian found a comfortable seat and sat down. After driving for a day, she only felt soreness in her waist and back.
"Go and find some clothes for me. I want to take a shower."
Chi Yanchen ignored her move to talk and gave orders naturally.
There were a few drops of water on his collar, along his neck to his collarbone and then to his open chest muscles. He just started to untie his clothes and threw them on the ground like no one else. The extremely alluring lines made Ye Mingqian's heart pound. .
Ye Mingqian couldn't help but swallow her saliva. In order to cover up her embarrassment, she got up and went upstairs to his bedroom to find clothes.
By the time she found all Chi Yanchen's clothes and went downstairs, he was already sitting on the sofa with a bath towel on his face.
His hair was still dripping with water, and the water droplets on his collarbone were crystal clear, slowly sliding down the line to his abdomen, and finally disappeared into his perfect mermaid line.
If it weren't for the bath towel wrapped around the waist, the water would still flow downward...
Ye Mingqian didn't dare to imagine the scene anymore. She hurriedly stopped the dangerous thoughts and threw her clothes next to Chi Yanchen.
"Give."
Chi Yanchen didn't even raise his eyelids. He stood up, opened his arms, and said naturally: "Wipe me dry."
When Ye Mingqian heard this, his expression froze, but he quickly recovered.
After they are done, the two will occasionally help each other wipe their bodies to increase the fun before the second time.
She obediently took a towel out of the bathroom, came behind Chi Yanchen and covered his back with the towel. Her fingertips inevitably touched his hot skin, which made her subconsciously retract her hand.
"Start pretending to be innocent with me?"
The man's words stabilized Ye Mingqian's slightly wandering mind, and she wiped the water off him carefully.
After all the work was done, Ye Mingqian went to the balcony with her nightgown and towel in her arms and threw them into the washing machine.
She stared at the numbers on the washing machine for a while, and didn't get up until the water was put in and started rolling.
Ye Mingqian's time was about the same. When she returned to the living room again, Chi Yanchen was already dressed and looking at his mobile phone on the sofa.
"Tell me what you want from me."
He looked away from his phone screen.
"Did you find Mr. Lu?"
Ye Mingqian sat down in his original position.
"yes."
Chi Yanchen answered calmly, "Originally I didn't plan to intervene, but with your ability you won't be able to solve the hidden plot until the day Huo Jili dies of old age."
The good words made Ye Mingqian feel like she was a joke.
It was something that others could easily solve, but she had to try her best to find a way out.
No wonder Lu Shang looked at her so strangely when he left Aishang. He was putting on a big drama with zero pay, and she was still seriously considering the issue of compensation. He was just going through the motions to show Huo Jili.
"In that case, why did you agree to form an alliance with me? You obviously don't have the need."
Chi Yanchen frowned slightly and then opened his eyebrows slightly, "Boring."
"Chi Yanchen!" she said angrily, "What on earth are you thinking about?"
"You help me get He Jie out of Aishang. These two people are my return gift to you." Chi Yanchen looked at her playfully.
His words made Ye Mingqian suddenly realize: "He Jie is yours?"
"She is the person Huo Jili has been trying to win over in Aishang. Why do you think it's because of that? She has Aishang's original account book in her hand. Although she handed it over to Huo Jili, he is still not at ease. She can still live in peace under his nose. , if you take the initiative to resign, you will definitely be threatened by Huo Jili, so if you leave her, you can help me with other things."
Ye Mingqian's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her breathing suddenly became heavier, "So you set up a trap from the beginning."
"I want to thank you for opening my mouth."
Chi Yanchen didn't look at her when he said this. He looked sideways at the French window. The sky outside was slowly getting darker.
"What are you going to do next?" Ye Mingqian smiled bitterly: "Or am I not qualified to enter the game in the first place, and I am not qualified to ask you about these things?"
What answered her was Chi Yanchen's silence.
Just when Ye Mingqian thought he could hardly get an answer, a man's deep voice sounded in his ears.
"have."
She raised her eyes and looked at him with a complicated expression.
Chi Yanchen stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. The dusk glow draped over his body, lengthening the shadow through his body.
He turned his head and his entire face was hidden in the light, his expression blurred.
"As long as you stop doing stupid things, our cooperation will still be effective."
The only thing that didn't change was his still cold voice.
Instead, Ye Mingqian breathed a sigh of relief, finally putting her heart back.
"Do I need you to enter Huo Jili's study again?"
The man's words made her feel nervous again, "How to get in?"
The experience last time was very bad. When she stayed in that study, she felt like there were countless pairs of eyes staring at her from all directions. Ye Mingqian didn't like the suffocating feeling of being out of breath.
"Take advantage of Dong Chenghui's opportunity to enter."
Chi Yanchen closed the curtains to block out all the light. "Shang Ailian will help herself. She will go to Huo Jili to negotiate terms."
"Are you so sure?"
She was skeptical.
Chi Yanchen revealed to her: "The handmade account He Jie handed over was just a version that was reproduced overnight. I have the original version. In the final analysis, it is just evidence that Aishang's previous funds were swallowed up by Huo Jili. He can spend money on this kind of thing without fear." , and Shang Ailian also has an account in her hand, which is a ledger of dirty things they did in Aishang's name, and every page in it is enough for Huo Jili to protect her."
Ye Mingqian heard the strings and knew the elegant meaning, and guessed the intention behind what he said.
"You mean that after Huo Jili receives the account book, he will definitely let me send it to the study for safekeeping?"
"Wait for my notification and be smart after entering the study."
Chi Yanchen issued the eviction order, and Ye Mingqian didn't ask any more questions. As soon as he walked out of the door, there was a heavy door closing behind him.
