After waking up, they saw that it was already 7:15, and the two of them hurriedly got dressed and washed up, then went downstairs to have breakfast.

  Breakfast was already laid out on the dining table, and Mrs. Cheng was still busy in the kitchen with her head down. Mo Wei said apologetically to Mrs. Cheng: "I'm really sorry, I've caused trouble for Auntie Lin (Mrs. Cheng's full name is Lin Yu)."

  Ting Yi smiled and teased her, saying: "What's with this 'Lin Auntie' business? You should call me Mom. Didn't you do that enthusiastically enough last night?"

  "Really? Really?" Mo Wei also remembered last night's events and couldn't help but blush, "I forgot."

  Two people sat down at the dinner table, Cheng Zhiyi picked up a white ceramic spoon and drank the white porridge while saying: "Is it really forgotten or pretended to be forgotten? Do you know how much sacrifice I made to save you from that fire pit last night?"

  Jingyi couldn't help but think of being forcibly kissed by that despicable pervert, and a surge of nameless anger rose up in her heart - no man is any good!

  "What sacrifice?" Mo Wei raised her head and asked curiously.

  "It's infuriating just thinking about it! I was...” Cheng Zhiyi was about to open her mouth and tell Mo Wei all about it, but suddenly realized that her mom was in the kitchen. This matter was definitely "not suitable for mom", so she quickly changed the subject and said: “I was mistaken for Xi Ge's princess!”

  "Haha......" Mo Wei couldn't help but burst out laughing, then teased Cheng Zhiyi, "That's really an honor for you, you know that the princesses of Xisheng are all national beauties!"

  Cheng Zhiyi couldn't help but give her a white eye, then said angrily: "Look at you, still daring to laugh so wildly, wait and see how I'll deal with you later."

  "Stop chatting, stop chatting, hurry up and eat! You'll be late for work again!" Cheng Mama couldn't help but urge them - Ah! These two sisters, as long as they get together, they have endless things to say, regardless of the time or occasion. Even eating breakfast can turn into a half-day laughter fest!

  The two of them made a face at each other, then quickly buried their heads in eating, after all, Confucius had said "don't talk while eating, don't speak while sleeping", and as children of teachers, they had been taught this way by the "sages" since childhood.

  After having breakfast, Mo Wei drove Cheng Ziyue to work.

  After hesitating for a while on the way, Cheng Zhiyi finally couldn't help but speak up: "Is there any news about Shi Yixin recently?"

  When she heard the three words "Shi Yixin", Mo Wei's eyes dimmed and her face turned icy. She curled her lips in disdain and said, "Who knows? Maybe he's dead! Didn't I say it before? Don't mention that cowardly man who fled at the critical moment in front of me again!"

  Mo Wei pretended to be strong and cold, but it made Cheng Zhiyi inexplicably heartbroken. This infatuated woman, although she complained and cursed Shi Yixin with her mouth, was actually thinking of him constantly in her heart. Otherwise, last night she wouldn't have been calling out to him so deeply and emotionally, blaming him, and thinking of him!

  However, since she was unwilling to admit it, Cheng Zhiyi couldn't bear to expose the thin lie in her heart, letting her continue to deceive others and herself. Many times, people really need to learn how to see but not see, think but not remember, grieve but not be hurt. Only then can they smile calmly in the face of life's great sorrows and pains, and remain unflappable amidst fate's great ups and downs.

  All along the way, both of them were silent and speechless.

  The phone on the bedside table rang again and again, and Xu Shaoyan reluctantly got out of the rare good dream that was hard to come by in a hundred years. Then, he slowly stretched out his hand from under the quilt to grab the phone.

  On the other end of the phone came Secretary Xiao Ru's sweet voice: "Director Xu, Lawyer Tang has arrived... waiting for you to go to Lize District Procuratorate together..."

  He hung up the phone, and Xǔ Shǎoyàn painfully got out of bed, clutching his aching head - damn it, those little brats from last night saw he was in a bad mood and took advantage of him to pour who-knows-how-many glasses of foreign liquor down his throat, no wonder he's feeling so miserable this morning!

  Not having slept enough, he was woken up by someone, and Xu Shaoyan's mood naturally wasn't great. After hastily washing up, he opened the fridge and drank half a jug of iced water, which made him feel much more awake. He looked up at the wall clock and saw it was already 10:25. Yesterday, he had agreed with Lawyer Tang to meet at 9:30 to go to the Lize District Procuratorate, it seemed that Lawyer Tang had been waiting for a long time!

  When they arrived at the Lize District Procuratorate, it was almost eleven o'clock. Xu Shaoyan was still hungover and hadn't fully woken up, so he was in a bad mood. If his father hadn't repeatedly instructed him to personally investigate Huang Yibin's case of embezzlement and escape, why would he have to give up his good sleep on such a hot day and run to this shabby place?

  It turned out that at the end of last year, Huang Yibin, the assistant general manager of "Tiancheng Travel" company, embezzled 3.5 million yuan from the company and fled to Shenzhen, until he was caught by the police a month ago. Now, the case has been investigated and transferred to the Rizhao District Procuratorate for examination and prosecution.

  Originally, Xu Shaoyan was furious with Huang Yibin, the family mouse, and vowed to make an example of him by punishing him according to the law. However, for some reason, his father (also the president of the Tiancheng Group, Xu Mingxin) specifically instructed Xu Shaoyan to personally handle this matter, saying that he should "be generous and lenient".

  Although Xu Lao Die is the president of Tian Cheng Group, however, "Tian Cheng Zhi Lv" tourism company under Tian Cheng Group is an independent subsidiary, which is managed by Xu Shao Yan. Now this old man actually interferes with his personnel work and disrupts his plan to "punish evil and eliminate traitors". Can you say that Xu Shao Yan will not be angry?

  So, Xu Shaoyan sat in the interrogation room of the procuratorate with his back to the door, looking around the small room with a hint of disgust and complaining constantly.

  "This shabby place, the windows are filthy to death! The table isn't even wiped clean..." He was a man with mild mysophobia who couldn't stand dirty tables and chairs.

  "The air conditioner doesn't cool at all, it's so broken but they won't even replace one, is the procuratorate short of money? Where has the taxpayer's money gone?"

  "This chair is so hard, I've been sitting on it for a while and now my waist and back are sore..."

  "How long does this damn prosecutor plan on keeping me waiting?! How much longer must I, a young master, be kept in suspense?!"

  No sooner had Xu Shaoyan finished speaking than a soft and pleasant voice came from behind him.

  "Sorry to keep you waiting."

  Just in time! Xǔ Shǎoyàn said with a hint of resentment in his heart, then turned the old swivel chair that was hard to turn around - in front of him was a beautiful and familiar face.

  "How could it be you?!" Xu Shaoyan and Cheng Zhiyi exclaimed in unison, both of them were stunned!

  "Pervert..." Wasn't he the scoundrel who made a pass at her last night? What is he doing here?

  "Princess---- Wasn't she the princess he saw in "Xī Gē" last night? How could she be at the Lǐ Zé District Procuratorate?"
