chapter 157: Feinting East, Striking West (an extra for EvC’s Dreamland)

"Zhou Donglin?" Song Jiaye asked, puzzled.

Li Qiyu didn't expect that Ming Yuexuan, who had kept her mouth shut all night, would let it slip in front of Song Jiaye.

At this moment, facing Song Jiaye's interrogation, Ming Yuexuan only then realized her mistake. She really wished she could slap herself twice. She had been so focused on watching Song Yunsheng that she had forgotten about Song Jiaye.

Song Yunsheng had resumed his manner of sizing everyone up. He was also very curious.

Now, Li Xichi, who looked very much like Li Qiyu, had become Concubine Yu.

He looked very much like Zhou Donglin and had also traveled through time.

So, Song Jiaye looked so much like him. Was he also someone who had traveled through time?

Since Ming Yuexuan had let it slip, Li Qiyu, who hadn't had the chance to test Song Jiaye's bottom - line yet, had to quickly smooth things over.

"I also find it very strange. He insisted that I'm his fellow - townsman. I don't know if this is some strange way for people in the capital to make phone calls." At this moment, Li Qiyu was very clever and used the strategy of feigning attack in the east and striking in the west. "By the way, Young Master Song, I just forgot to ask. How did you get my phone number?"

This strategy of feigning attack in the east and striking in the west did work. Song Jiaye's attention was immediately drawn over.

"What's going on?"

Li Qiyu quickly took out her phone and handed it to Song Jiaye.

"Before I came, I didn't know it was Young Master Song calling. So I was just curious and came to take a look." She was trying to dispel Song Jiaye's doubts. There was nothing improper between her and Song Yunsheng.

This phone number was bought by Song Jiaye for Li Xiyu after her original phone was damaged by water when she fell into the water. He also got a new number for her. Although the original number was later retrieved, Li Qiyu never changed back. So, not many people knew her new number.

It's no exaggeration to say that even Father Li didn't know this new number of Li Qiyu's. And usually when they had something to do with the Li family, it was mostly Song Jiaye who made the calls. So, no one else knew about this.

While interrogating, Song Jiaye also casually pressed the delete button and deleted Song Yunsheng's incoming call record.

Seeing that things were getting worse the more he explained, Song Yunsheng could only confess, "A few days ago, I was doing something for Old Master Song and saved Miss Li's number."

"What kind of thing would require Xiyu's..." At this point, Song Jiaye realized something.

He remembered "The Collection of Spring and Yu".

At that time, Old Master Song was looking for "The Collection of Spring and Yu" and did send a copy to the Li family. It seemed that what Song Yunsheng meant by doing something should refer to this.

The only one who could have leaked this secret was Xiao Wu, Old Master Song's liaison in the Li family.

Since his own man had been unreliable, Song Jiaye could only swallow this hidden loss. He didn't want Song Yunsheng to continue talking, but he also didn't want Song Yunsheng to harass Qiyu every now and then.

"In the future, if Young Master Song has anything to do, just contact me. Xiyu's body hasn't fully recovered yet and she hasn't started handling things. It's useless for you to look for her."

Song Yunsheng didn't dare to say anything else. Even though he was uncomfortable inside, he could only smile and nod in agreement on the surface.

"Sure, sure. I'll be more careful in the future."

"Since everything has been clarified, Young Master Song, you can enjoy your drink slowly. Xiyu, let's go."

"Then, Young Master Song, Miss Li, I won't see you off. Take care."

Li Qiyu stood up obediently and followed Song Jiaye out of the door. Song Yunsheng kept smiling and watching the three of them leave until their backs disappeared around the corner. Then his smile gradually faded and his expression became angry.

He punched the table, and the cups and dishes on the table jumped due to the impact.

"Damn Song Jiaye."

As soon as he cursed, he felt as if he was scolding himself, so he secretly changed his words, "Bah, Song Yian!"

Song Jiaye strode out with Li Qiyu and Ming Yuexuan. Song Jiaye took big steps and walked in a hurry. Ming Yuexuan and Li Qiyu had to trot to keep up with his pace.

At the hotel entrance, Ming Yuexuan was smart enough to prepare to slip away. She quickly said, "You don't need to see me off. I'll take a taxi back."

Song Jiaye didn't blame her for luring his wife away. First, he thanked Ming Yuexuan, "Thank you for accompanying Xiyu today."

Ming Yuexuan felt flattered. Song Jiaye actually thanked her. This was the first time.

She felt like she was being valued by a big leader and quickly said, "You're welcome. It's what I should do."

Song Jiaye said, "It's not safe for a girl to go back alone at night. Let Xiao Wu take you."

"N...no need."

Ming Yuexuan had just accidentally let it slip. She knew that Song Jiaye and Li Qiyu would surely have a "heart - to - heart talk" when they got back. In this atmosphere, she didn't want to interfere.

Song Jiaye was also considerate. He said, "We drove two cars. Anyway, Xiao Wu has to drive the empty car back. It's on the way to take you."

Hearing Song Jiaye say this, Ming Yuexuan wasn't polite anymore. "Then thank you, Mr. Song."

Ming Yuexuan happily got into the car.

On the other side, Song Jiaye led Li Qiyu to a rather eye - catching sports car.

Looking at this pink sports car and then at Song Jiaye, who was tall and serious, the contrast was so cute that Li Qiyu couldn't help but let out a "pfft" laugh.

At this time, Song Jiaye had just unlocked the car door. Since the door of a sports car was different from that of an ordinary car, although it was automatic, he was afraid that Li Qiyu would be surprised. So he walked around and was about to wait until Li Qiyu was seated. Hearing Li Qiyu's laughter, he looked back at her in confusion, with an expression that seemed to say, "You're still laughing?"

Li Qiyu stuck out her tongue and obediently got into the car.

Song Jiaye also got into the driver's seat and closed the door.

Li Qiyu looked at him and found it very novel.

"You can drive?"

Li Qiyu had seen him being driven to and from places by Xiao Wu every day and thought he couldn't drive.

Soon, Li Qiyu found out that Song Jiaye could not only drive, but also drove steadily, accurately and aggressively. Compared with Xiao Wu's slow and steady style, his driving style was much more domineering.

The sports car's performance was much better than that of ordinary cars. With Song Jiaye's skills, it was like a swimming fish, shuttling through the lanes with ease.

Li Qiyu nervously grabbed the seat - belt.

At this time, Ming Yuexuan, who couldn't hold back any longer, sent a voice message.

Li Qiyu clicked on it, and the voice message was played out loud.

"Xiyu, I think Song Jiaye is much more reliable than Song Yunsheng. Have a good talk with him. If he confesses, be lenient. If he resists, punish him severely!"
