"Hmm?"
Just then, Ye Shuang noticed his phone vibrate. He took a look and found it was a message from Alice.
Alice: The day after tomorrow!
Alice: I am very busy, you know. This is a rare break, and I definitely didn't save it specifically for you.
Seeing this message, Ye Shuang replied with an "okay."
Then, after thinking for a moment, he sent a rather cute sticker. When he put his phone down, he noticed Chen Qin staring intently at him with her beautiful eyes. She was resting her face on one hand and playing with her hair with the other.
Obviously, sitting right next to Ye Shuang, Chen Qin had naturally seen the contents of his phone.
"Ah Ye, Alice is..." Chen Qin paused for a moment before continuing, "too young. You wouldn't go that far, right?"
Ye Shuang didn't quite understand what Chen Qin meant.
However, he still explained, "Actually, I have other matters to attend to by asking Alice out."
"Huh?"
"Yeah..." Ye Shuang smiled and said, "It's mainly about Bobo. I want to have a deep conversation with Bobo."
Hearing this, Chen Qin's face stiffened for a few seconds.
After a while, she placed her hand on Ye Shuang's shoulder, "Ah Ye, you weren't subjected to something by Chen Hai... and then awakened to something incredible, were you?"
Ye Shuang: "?"
"A-although I shouldn't say anything, but this is a bit..." Chen Qin pursed her lips, then leaned forward, her soft curves pressing against the back of Ye Shuang's hand.
"Aren't girls good enough?"
Ye Shuang: What?
He was dizzy from Chen Qin's roundabout way of speaking, feeling that she was trying to say something very obscurely. Feeling the massage on the back of his hand, Ye Shuang asked, "What are you talking about?"
"I mean, I mean, argh!" Chen Qin sat up straight and grabbed Ye Shuang's hand, "Are you bisexual?"
"Ah?"
Ye Shuang froze for a few seconds before reacting. He had merely mentioned Bobo, so how did it get twisted into something so convoluted?
"No, I just have some questions to ask Bobo. And what does this have to do with that kid Chen Hai?" Ye Shuang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Seeing Chen Qin's worried little expression, he couldn't help but pinch her cheek.
"What exactly is going on in your head?"
"I'm not just imagining things," Chen Qin said. She took out her phone, tapped it a few times, and handed it straight over. Ye Shuang took Chen Qin's phone and glanced at it, finding a somewhat familiar letter of apology.
"Hmm... I shouldn't have hit the other person because they wouldn't let me touch their butt, and then stolen their underwear..."
He looked at it for a few seconds before realizing: wasn't this the apology letter Chen Hai had copied from the internet last time?
"Uh..." Looking at Chen Qin's suspicious gaze, Ye Shuang finally understood what she had misunderstood. He had no choice but to put down the phone and properly explain the whole story.
Hearing that the apology was copied from the internet by Chen Hai, Chen Qin still looked a bit skeptical and asked, "Is Chen Hai really not?"
"No, he seriously likes busty girls." After Ye Shuang said this, Chen Qin finally let out a long sigh of relief. "Then don't lie to me. The thought of both me and Chen Hai having slept with you makes me feel really weird."
Ye Shuang: "..."
"Even if this apology letter were real, why would you think there's actually something between me and Chen Hai?" Ye Shuang asked.
"Hmph, you're so handsome, who knows if Chen Hai would try to find a way," Chen Qin said self-righteously despite lacking justification. "Because I've tried to find ways."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"No, I'm still a bit worried. Let's get a room so I can drain your inventory dry first."
Thump. Unsurprisingly, Chen Qin received a light chop on the head from Ye Shuang.
What inventory?
"But Ah Ye, what do you want with Alice's bodyguard? Do you two even have any common topics?" Chen Qin asked.
"Well..." Ye Shuang didn't know how to explain the connection between Bobo and Bai Yuyou's kidnapping. After all, he wasn't entirely sure if the person on the phone was actually Bobo.
Furthermore, even now, Ye Shuang didn't know what Bobo's real name was.
However, out of trust for Chen Qin, Ye Shuang spoke up, "I've found some clues regarding Yuyou's kidnapping from back then."
"Clues? Wasn't that Bai Laoqi already sent to prison?" Chen Qin asked.
"There are other people behind Bai Laoqi. As for who... I could only dig up a few things, and it seems to be related to Bobo," Ye Shuang said. "Of course, since I don't have direct evidence on hand, it's just speculation."
Chen Qin seemed a bit surprised that Ye Shuang would go out of his way to investigate this. "Ah Ye, Bobo is from the Zhou family's side, right? If the kidnapping case is related to the Zhou family, then why would they go to such great lengths to find Yuyou?"
"Yeah, this is indeed the contradictory part, so I'm wondering if Bobo might be connected to someone outside the Zhou family," Ye Shuang said.
"I see..."
Chen Qin thought about it. However, investigating this matter would be quite troublesome. After all, the other party was just a bodyguard, and since it had been a few years, it would be very difficult to get any results without a clear direction.
"Ah Ye, who do you think it is?"
"I don't know the situation within the Zhou family. It could be anyone, including Uncle Zhou himself," Ye Shuang shook his head.
"Hmm..." Chen Qin rested her cheek on her hand and suddenly asked, "I think, since Bobo is little sister Alice's bodyguard now, could Yuyou's kidnapping be related to Alice's people? After all, it's easier for Alice to enter the Zhou family if Yuyou is gone, right?"
"It's not like I haven't considered that," Ye Shuang smiled.
"I'm already unclear about the internal situation of the Zhou family, and Alice's biological mother is a foreigner, right? I know absolutely nothing about her family's side. I don't even know if they are in the country, who is there, or even their names."
"That's true, it's really troublesome." However, Chen Qin was also a bit curious about how Ye Shuang was going to ask Bobo.
If this matter really had something to do with Bobo, Ye Shuang probably wouldn't be able to get anything out of him if he asked directly.
"I'll try beating around the bush," Ye Shuang didn't have a good plan for the moment either; he just wanted to meet Bobo first. Plus, Bobo himself didn't know that Ye Shuang already had some clues, so by taking advantage of the other party letting their guard down, he might be able to extract some useful information.
"I'll go help you investigate too. Ah Ye really wants to know the truth of what happened back then, right?" Chen Qin smiled brightly. "My connections are still pretty good."
Hearing this, Ye Shuang felt much more at ease. "Okay."
At this moment, just as the topic ended, the Pikachu not far away stood up unsteadily, then turned and went to pay the bill.
