Xiao Qi Feng originally had a teasing smile but it froze in an instant: “How did you obtain this news? Have you confirmed it?”
The people he sent to investigate had only returned with news that Nangong Che had arrived at Xiao Empire, but no one saw him, almost as if there were no news at all.
He had been worried that the Prince of Ling Empire had some ulterior purpose, and it seemed that his concern was accurate.
”Yao Yao helped to investigate.”
His doubts immediately vanished upon hearing it was Ning Meng Yao who did the investigation since her capability was already clear to him.
”Did Meng Yao obtain anything else?” Xiao Qi Tian placed his line of sight on Qiao Tian Chang with a strong expectation in his eyes.
Qiao Tian Chang nodded: “I entered the palace because of this. Not only did the people Yao Yao sent found out that Nangong Che arrived at the capital, they also found out that he is staying in Qi Tian’s restaurant.”
Everyone in the capital knew Xiao Qi Tian opened a restaurant and it was doing very well. It was not a surprise for Nangong Che to choose that place.
First of all, it was the best restaurant in the capital. As a rich young man, choosing some other place would only lead to suspicions. Secondly, the most dangerous place was the safest place. He would also make the same choice if he was Nangong Che.
”Why didn’t that darn Qi Tian not realize it,” If it wasn’t for Ning Meng Yao, how long would they continue to be tricked?
Qiao Tian Chang was also feeling helpless: “Qi Tian cannot be blamed. Nangong Che must have carefully planned it. Not only so, he still has subordinates with him, it’s normal for him to blend in with the other wealthy people there.”
Xiao Qi Feng naturally understood that point, but what made him speechless was how information about them was received even though they had already disguised themselves to such an extent.
”What I really want to know is, how did she find out about it?” Xiao Qi Feng cast a deep glance at Qiao Tian Chang as he said strangely.
Qiao Tian Chang rolled his eyes at Xiao Qi Feng, as if he did not see that strange stare: “The Princess of Ling Empire, Nangong Yue is here as well. Apart from that, Nangong Che had secretly met up with Marquis Ling a few days ago.”
Xiao Qi Feng’s hand immediately stiffened and he furrowed his brows: “What do you suppose it was for?”
”I’m afraid Ling Empire is planning to forge a marriage alliance. As for what was discussed between Nangong Che and Ling Marquis, I’m afraid Yao Yao would need more time,” Qiao Tian Chang’s brows were furrowed, he had a heavy feeling about the development of things.
”I will also send people to investigate this, but I would need to trouble Meng Yao as well,” Xiao Qi Feng frowned as he looked at Qiao Tian Chang.
”No matter what, we have to be well prepared for it. Although it may be a little late, it’s better than being caught unprepared.”
Xiao Qi Feng nodded, he naturally understood the logic. If it wasn’t for Ning Meng Yao’s help, they would be kept in the dark. If so, by the time they found out about it, it would be too late.
”I will send Zero to keep an eye on Nangong Che,” It was better to have someone keep an eye on him.
Qiao Tian Chang raised his eyebrows, seemingly assured that the one sent was Zero.
”Since you have already planned it out, then I’ll be returning,” Qiao Tian Cheng came over to inform Xiao Qi Feng about it. Now that he had already done so, there was nothing more to say.
Xiao Qi Feng rolled his eyes at Qiao Tian Chang, then waved his hands: “I can see that you are reluctant to part with Meng Yao even just for a while.”
”You’re jealous?”
Xiao Qi Feng choked. Was he jealous? What’s there to be jealous about?
Seeing Xiao Qi Feng like that, Qiao Tian Chang returned to his residence in a good mood, but he noticed Ning Meng Yao wasn’t home and had gone out.
She had left a message through Grandmother Qin, saying she would be heading to Xiao Qi Tian’s restaurant for a meal later and to meet her there when he returned.
After knowing where she was, Qiao Tian Chang turned and left his residence.
At this moment, Ning Meng Yao was obstructed by a fatty. He was even looking at her with a lustful expression.
”Step aside,” Ning Meng Yao gave a cold stare at the foolish pig in front of her.
”Missy, do you know who I am? I can guarantee you a good life if you follow me back,” The fatty kept drooling as he looked at Ning Meng Yao’s exclusive face. He had never seen a woman with such temperament.
