Chapter 683: Chapter 684: I Only Like Those Who Are Fair and Plump
Gu Qichen saw that Xia Yangyang seemed a little different from the other women.
She was always by Gao Huizhi’s side.
She didn’t try to charm the men around her by offering them drinks, like the other three hostesses.
Apart from a few times when Gao Huizhi whispered to her,
There seemed to be no intimate actions.
But these can’t dispel Gu Qichen’s doubts.
Seeing Xia Yangyang in such a place, let alone her seductive attire,
He felt his blood boiling, almost exploding.
Yet, his face remained frosty.
Finally, the dinner ended.
The three men were all drunk.
They were guided by three beauties to separate rooms.
Only Xia Yangyang and Gao Huizhi remain in the room.
Gao Huizhi served a bowl of soup to Xia Yangyang, saying, “Yangyang, you didn’t eat much tonight. Try some of this pigeon soup. Your third sister is quite a good cook.”
Xia Yangyang accepted the soup but only tasted it before setting it down, “Godfather, I don’t have an appetite.”
“What’s wrong with you? You’ve been looking down all day. Why don’t you tell your godfather and I can help you out.”
Xia Yangyang looked extremely down.
Gao Huizhi reached out and stroked Xia Yangyang’s hair as he would a child.
Seizing this opportunity, Xia Yangyang said: “Godfather, I need your help with something. Can you help me find someone?”
“Whom do you want me to find?”
“I only know that his name is Xu Wan. He is the personal assistant of Xi Master No. 2 and he suddenly disappeared.”
Gao Huizhi slightly furrowed his brows, “Xi Jiaxin, Xi Jiachen’s good-for-nothing younger brother?”
Xia Yangyang was surprised that Gao Huizhi knew these two so well.
But then again, Gao Huizhi’s business reaches into every industry, so it makes sense that he knew these corporate leaders.
Xia Yangyang nodded, “Exactly, Xu Wan has been with him for over a decade and suddenly disappeared a few days ago. I can’t find any news about him.”
“How are you involved with someone from the Xi family?”
Gao Huizhi seldom interferes with his children’s private lives.
Over the years, Xia Yangyang has been in the United States and mostly socializes with locals there.
So her sudden involvement with the Xi family comes as a surprise.
Speaking of the Xi family, Gao Huizhi could not help but recall a chapter from his youth.
Xia Yangyang finally spoke, “I have some personal matters. Godfather, I can handle my own affairs. I just need your connections to find this person. I need to investigate something.”
Gao Huizhi nodded, “Don’t worry, leave this to your second brother. I will instruct him later. He should be back in a few days. There’s nothing he can’t handle in Beijing.”
Xia Yangyang said, “I am grateful to my second brother.”
Seeing Xia Yangyang tense, Gao Huizhi playfully pinched her cheek, “Look at you, lost so much weight. There’s no flesh on your cheeks. Your godfather likes you chubby, like a baby.”
Forcing a smile, Xia Yangyang said, “Don’t worry, godfather, I’ll take care of my health.”
Gao Huizhi said, “I’m not worried about you in Phoenix. After all, their chef is nationally known. Just remember to eat more, gain some weight. You look good when you are plump. I’m leaving now. You can stay here temporarily.”
“Godfather, I’ll see you out,” Xia Yangyang stood up.
“No need, it’s late now. Go back and rest,” said Gao Huizhi.
After Gao Huizhi left,
Gu Qichen put down his telescope.
