Chapter 148 Seems to be one step closer to the truth
The housekeeper and the maid spoke very quietly, but a few words still reached Feng Yebei's ears.
His dark eyes glanced in this direction, and the housekeeper and maid immediately fell silent.
However, the housekeeper still felt a little more in awe of Mu Jianyan. Not only him, but also the maid could see that the young master really liked Miss Mu.
With her around, the young master's temperament is more lively than before.
It's a good thing.
The butler looked pleased.
Feng Yebei slowly stuffed the last piece of steak into his mouth, then took out a tissue and wiped his hands. He glanced at Feng Mo and Mu Jianyan, who were still eating. If it had been in the past, he would have already stood up and left.
But this time, he picked up the newspaper next to him and read it with a confident expression.
The butler then stepped forward to pour him a glass of water and put it aside. He smiled and said to Feng Yebei: "Master, the young master has eaten a lot today. His appetite is better than before. He talks more and is much more lively.
, this Miss Mu is really not simple."
"Well, it's quite unexpected." Feng Yebei's lips curved into a subtle smile.
He was thinking about how to talk to Mu Jianjian about Feng Mo.
Would it scare her away if she rashly said that she wanted Mu Jianjian to be the stepmother of her child?
"Aunt Mu, I listened to you and I didn't eat very much."
Feng Mo pointed to the small half of the bowl left in the bowl, glanced at Feng Yebei quietly, and said to Mu Jian: "But dad said that waste is shameful, and the food that is put into the bowl cannot be left."
Feng Yebei looked up from the newspaper, his tone a bit stern, "There is only one mouthful left, don't waste it."
Feng Mo is not like a sugar baby whose food is everywhere around him when he eats. On the contrary, the table around his bowl is very clean.
Even the bowl was not grilled and it was everywhere.
"Just one bite, or..."
Just when Mu Jianjian was about to say, "Master Feng, take care of it for the child," his cell phone rang.
She looked at the caller ID and nodded apologetically at Feng Yebei, "Sorry, I'll answer the call."
She stood up and walked aside and pressed the answer button.
"Simple baby, do you miss me?"
Just as he answered the call, Ji Yang's cynical voice came from the phone.
The voice was a bit loud. Mu Jianyan subconsciously covered the receiver and looked back. Seeing Feng Yebei lowering his head to read the newspaper, he asked softly: "Have you found it?"
There was also the sound of clinking wine glasses inside the microphone, as if he was attending some occasion.
"Simple baby, you are so boring. Couldn't it be that I missed you and that's why I called you?"
"Young poor man, I don't know you yet."
Mu Jianjian's voice was obviously much softer. When Feng Yebei heard it, a deep understanding of emotion flashed through his dark eyes, and he didn't turn the pages of the newspaper in his hand for a long time.
Mu Jianyan's voice was light and sweet, "What was the result?"
Ji Yang opened the window and let the wind blow in, blowing away some of the alcohol smell on his body.
And the loneliness in his eyes.
He looked at the news coming from his subordinates, narrowed his eyes, and said straight to the point: "I found out about the person. Five years ago, that person from the Pei family actually went to the auction."
Mu Jianjian's body trembled when she heard this. She covered the receiver and subconsciously glanced towards the living room.
As a result, his eyes met Feng Yebei's.
There was a cold light in those eyes that could make people fall into despair at just one glance, which made Mu Jianjian feel unreasonably panicked.
She curled her lips apologetically at Feng Yebei, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and then put the phone to her ear, "Are you sure?"
"Confirmed he went to the auction."
Ji Yang used a lot of connections to investigate the list of people who participated in the auction five years ago. Only because the confidentiality of that auction was so good, a lot of effort was wasted during the investigation, which was a little delayed.
But there are also several people whose names are not on the list, the encryption index sss.
"It's a coincidence that when I was attending a social event a few days ago, a client suddenly revealed that a painting and calligraphy that he originally wanted to buy at a high price five years ago was bought by a mysterious person at an auction.
He was still very angry at the time, but when he inquired about the other party's identity and learned that it was Pei Siyuan, he gave up the idea of buying it at a second price."
Ji Yang thought for a moment, "Pei Siyuan is not a good person. The city is very deep. Compared with Feng Yebei, he is even worse. Otherwise, they would not have competed with each other for so many years."
I don't know if it was because he was drunk or for some other reason, but there was suddenly no sound from Ji Yang's side.
Mu Jian frowned and asked again. After a while, Ji Yang continued: "What are you going to do next?"
"I can only confirm that he did go to that auction, but there is not much other evidence to prove it. After all, five years have passed, and the list of that auction has several encrypted lists..."
Ji Yang paused, "If... that person is really Pei Siyuan, what are you going to do?"
He cleared his throat and asked awkwardly: "I'm just curious. I heard that Pei Siyuan looks quite evil. You don't really want to be with him..."
"What are you thinking about? Don't you know why I want to find that person?"
Mu Jianyan lowered his eyes, unable to concentrate.
"Aunt Mu, please eat some fruit."
Suddenly Feng Mo's voice came into the receiver, and Ji Yang paused for a moment, "Where are you?"
Mu Jian lowered her head and saw Feng Mo carrying a plate of fruit coming to her side at some point.
"Thank you, Mo Mo." Mu Jianjian took a grape and stuffed it into his mouth, and then said to Ji Yang, "I'm outside. I understand what you said. I'll elaborate later. I'll hang up now."
"No, this voice sounds familiar..."
Before Ji Yang could finish speaking, Mu Jianyan hung up the phone.
Looking at the black screen, Ji Yang was confused. That was not Tangbao's voice, but it was very familiar. It seemed like he had heard it somewhere and couldn't remember it for a while.
Here, after Mu Jianjian hung up the phone, he turned back to the dining table.
Back then, Pei Siyuan went to that auction...
Rich, powerful people...
The age is also right...
Mu Jian looked at the food in front of him and suddenly lost his appetite.
I have to go to the hospital and check if Pei Siyuan's name is on the list!
