Mu Chen’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise but also found it interesting. He said with great interest, "Oh, who has offended you? It’s rare that our Second Young Master Ouyang speaks up personally. No problem, just tell me, who do you want to teach a lesson to? Even if it’s the Heavenly King, I’ll help you get it done."
"Xing Yi?" Mu Chen’s expression turned somewhat peculiar. "Brother, I’m afraid I can’t help you with this."
"Weren’t you the one who said you’d help me settle things even if it were the Heavenly King? Why are you backing off just at the mention of this person? I knew you were all talk and no action."
"Hao, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but even if I did, I can’t. Don’t you know? Xing Yi died in a car accident not long ago."
Ouyang Hao was momentarily struck speechless. Although he couldn’t stand that guy with gold-rimmed glasses acting all refined, he never anticipated that Xing Yi would die tragically in a car accident.
So, Lin Yixun’s recent behavior can be explained.
Seeing the shock on Ouyang Hao’s face, Mu Chen realized he probably knew nothing about it. After a pause, he added, "There’s something else you probably don’t know either. Rumor has it that Xing Yi could have avoided the accident but lost his life to save a woman. Do you know who that woman is?"
"I’m not interested in knowing who that woman is."
"You will be interested." Mu Chen took a large gulp from the freshly made drink the bartender handed him. "That woman is your little nanny, Lin Yixun."
"Lin Yixun?" Ouyang Hao’s heart skipped a beat.
"Yes, her. Sometimes I really wonder, apart from her fair skin, there seems to be nothing special about your little nanny, especially with that scar on her face. Why would Xing Yi risk his life for her? What does she have that’s so good that even you..."
"What about me? Don’t say nonsense!"
"Fine, fine, you have nothing to do with it." Mu Chen rolled his eyes. Even at this stage, Ouyang Hao was still being stubborn. Did he not realize he was overly concerned about that little nanny?
After hearing Mu Chen’s words, Ouyang Hao lost the mood to drink. He got off the bar stool and said to Mu Chen, "Alright, I have something to do. We’ll meet again later."
Ouyang Hao had just arrived and was already saying he had to leave. Mu Chen figured Ouyang Hao’s mind was probably in turmoil and didn’t bother arguing with him.
"Alright, we’ll meet again later."
Ouyang Hao left the bar, pushed his sports car to its limits, but by the time he returned to the apartment, Lin Yixun had long gone.
Thinking about the harsh words he had said to Lin Yixun before she left, Ouyang Hao felt some regret. If he had known about Xing Yi’s situation earlier, he wouldn’t have treated Lin Yixun so harshly, nor would he have said such terrible things to her.
He took out his phone and skillfully dialed a long string of numbers. The phone rang and rang, but no one answered. Just as he was about to hang up, he suddenly heard Lin Yixun’s voice on the other end.
Lin Yixun’s voice was somewhat hoarse, probably from crying, which made Ouyang Hao feel a bit uncomfortable. However, he still spoke in his usual strong and domineering tone, "Why are you only answering my call now? Were you avoiding my call?"
"Mr. Ouyang, is there something you need?"
"Can’t I look for you even if there’s nothing?"
"Hey, cat got your tongue?"
"Mr. Ouyang, if there’s nothing urgent, I would like to hang up now." Lin Yixun really had no energy to deal with him at this moment.
"Who said there’s nothing urgent." Ouyang Hao’s eyes darted around and he finally found an excuse. "I’m going to Bali Island tomorrow to shoot a new album. You’re coming with me."
