Chapter 788: 788, one gets used to the pain after experiencing it many times.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yebai finally showed some reaction.
He said, “I went to the hospital last night.”
“Who did you go to see?” Mo Weiyi pressed on.
Xiao Yebai fell silent again.
“Did you go to see Tian Ye?” After Mo Weiyi said this, he couldn’t help but laugh a little.
He neither denied nor affirmed.

Even mentally prepared, he felt like he had been stabbed suddenly in the heart.
The sharp pain came surging over him like a tidal wave.
She tried desperately to suppress the sourness welling up in her eyes, yet a notable tremble had slipped into her voice, “So why did you go to see her?”
Xiao Yebai responded with silence as usual.
Mo Weiyi just watched him, and gradually she discovered that the sting revisiting her heart miraculously began to fade away.
Indeed, with increase in the frequency of experiencing pain, one could eventually become accustomed to it.
She took a deep breath, her voice steady and calm, “Xiao Yebai, seize this opportunity to tell me everything, including Tian Ye, including the child in my aunt’s womb, and that necklace… I want you to tell me everything you know, word by word, right now.”
After she finished saying this, the room fell eerily silent.
And the man’s eyes gradually darkened.
His eyes lowered, he waited a long while before saying in a coarse deep voice, “You looked at my phone.”
“Yes.” Mo Weiyi’s eyes reddened, “But you’ve taken thorough precautions. Your phone has so many passwords, numeric, gesture,… I wanted to see more but couldn’t. So, is there some secret you don’t want me to discover? I have realized these past few days that everyone in this house has secrets, my grandfather, my father, my aunt, my grandmother, even you… you all have so many secrets. These secrets are all related to me, yet you all choose to hide them from me. Do you all consider me a fool?”
She stared at the man, pausing for emphasis, “But I am offering you an opportunity now. I hope you can tell me everything, immediately, right now.”
Xiao Yebai said, “You don’t trust me.”
“It’s your actions that make it impossible for me to trust you!”
Upon hearing this, the man slowly clenched his jaw, his handsome face revealing a clear cold intent gradually creeping into his eyes, becoming piercingly icy.
Mo Weiyi openly met his terrifying gaze and the icy chill he exuded from his body.
Just as she thought he was about to say something or do something…
The man turned around and walked straight out.
The door was slammed shut with a bang, startling Mo Weiyi into shivering slightly.
**
A few minutes later, Mo Weiyi opened the door of the room.
The morning sun was pouring into the living room through the floor-to-ceiling window. Aunt Zhou was mopping the floor. Hearing the sound, she quickly dropped her tools and walked over, “Princess, breakfast is ready. Shall I bring it to you now?”
Mo Weiyi glanced at the open-plan Western-style dining table on the side, “Where is he?”
Zhou Aunt quickly said, “Young master Xiao has already gone to the company.”
“Huh.” Mo Weiyi could not help but laugh.
Things are at this stage, and he still has to go to work…
It’s clearly work that takes precedence and is of utmost importance in his heart.
Then Mo Weiyi said, “I was asking about Rong An.”
Aunt Zhou looked awkward.
Was she actually asking about young master Rong An?
Last night, young master Xiao returned home only after two a.m., and as soon as he arrived, he asked if the princess was asleep. When he heard that the princess was sleeping in the guest room, he went straight in.
She waited outside for a long while, thinking that Xiao would carry the princess back to the bedroom upstairs, but Xiao never came back out…
Now all she could say was, “Young Master Rong An has already had breakfast, I’ll go get him now.”
Just as she finished speaking, the door of the guest room behind her opened.
Rong An had changed into a clean black set of clothing, he walked up to her, “Princess, the information you asked me to find out yesterday, I have it now.”
Mo Weiyi immediately picked up her phone, “Send it to me on WeChat.”
“Alright.”
…
In the dining room, Aunt Zhou served breakfast and then left.
Mo Weiyi was looking at the call record displayed on her mobile phone.
The telephone number, the name of the line user, the duration of the call, the time of the call…
“The call records and timelines between Mr. Xiao Yebai, Zhan Yao, and Gu Pingting from yesterday are here, including the time when we left the suite… And this one here, the call records among them during the incident at the lobby last night…,” Rong An explained, “This is the call record among them when you were undergoing a check-up at the hospital last night…”
Mo Weiyi checked the time and exited WeChat, “Help me apply for a leave from the law firm.”
“Sure.”
**
Half an hour later, at the ## Road Police Station.
Gu Pingting was sprinting with her backpack. As she reached the guardhouse, a figure flew past her suddenly.
She was startled.
She quickly halted and saw that it was Mo Weiyi’s bodyguard. Her face turned pale abruptly, “What… What are you doing?”
Rong An gestured, “The princess is waiting for you in the car.”
“Huh?” Gu Pingting instinctively glanced at the black sedan parked nearby.
The rear window rolled down revealing Mo Weiyi’s beautiful little face. She even smiled at Gu Pingting and waved at her.
Gu Pingting blinked and walked over, “Miss Mo, do you need something?”
Mo Weiyi asked, “Have you had breakfast?”
“Yes,” Gu Pingting nodded, “I was about to head to work.”
“There’s no rush, right?” Mo Weiyi opened the car door and sat down, “Would you accompany me for breakfast? The food made by the housekeeper didn’t suit my taste. I heard that the Weidao Tea Restaurant nearby is good, so I asked Rong An to bring me here. It’s such a coincidence that I ran into you.”
Then, as if afraid of worrying her, she took out her phone, “I don’t feel like eating alone since I’m not in a good mood. Can you accompany me for half an hour? Or should I call Zhan Yao to ask for a leave for you?”
Gu Pingting, already feeling guilty, hurriedly walked over after hearing what she had said, “No need, I’ll just let the boss know later.”
Mo Weiyi curled her lips, “Then get in the car.”
Gu Pingting got into the car.
Looking at Mo Weiyi, elegantly dressed in her professional attire, with makeup on and jewelry on, beautiful beyond words, Gu Pingting let out a sigh of relief.
She initially thought that Mo Weiyi, after all the trouble from last night, would succumb and fall into a long period of depression…
But it seemed that the call she made last night had an effect. As long as the misunderstanding with Mr. Xiao was resolved, he would take care of everything else.

Weidao Tea Restaurant.
In the Guangdong region, there is a habit of having morning tea, so even at this hour, though the restaurant is not as crowded as it is at noon and night, there are still quite a few customers in the lobby.
Waiters move back and forth along the walkway, with a rich aroma of food filling the air.
A bustling urban atmosphere.
Mo Weiyi booked a VIP room and ordered a wide variety of dishes that filled the entire table.
After the waiter was done serving the dishes and left with the cart, Rong An also turned to leave.
Once the door closed, Mo Weiyi placed her bag on the table, stuffed her phone into it, and picked up her chopsticks to start eating.
Gu Pingting sat at a position beside Mo Weiyi, and was just picking up her milk tea to have a sip…
“Miss Gu, don’t you want to try? This pineapple bun is quite delicious.” Mo Weiyi enthusiastically invited, “I’ve heard before that all the chefs here are locals invited by the boss from the Chaoshan area, no wonder the dim sum is so authentic.”
Gu Pingting put down her milk tea, “I’m not hungry, I’m still full.”
“Then let’s pack it for you later, since I ordered so much that I definitely can’t finish. It’s not good to waste food.” Mo Weiyi suggested, “Just take it for Zhan Yao, he should like it.”
Gu Pingting instinctively declined, “But the boss only comes to the station in the afternoon. He’s busy every day.”
“What’s he busy with?” Mo Weiyi asked.
Gu Pingting was taken aback but managed to come up with a quick response, “Oh him, he stays up all night playing Honor of Kings, neglecting his work.”
“Really?” Mo Weiyi took a bite of the glutinous rice chicken, “Why have you been calling him ‘boss’ all day? Isn’t he your boyfriend?”
“Huh?” A chill ran down Gu Pingting’s spine.
My God!
She totally forgot that she and Zhan Yao are supposed to be in a relationship now.
She hurriedly replied, “I always call him ‘boss’ at the station. After all, we have a superior-subordinate relationship, we have to avoid suspicion.”
“So, the station doesn’t allow relationships between superiors and subordinates?” Mo Weiyi raised an eyebrow, “So, that means your colleagues at the station don’t know that you two are dating?”
Gu Pingting blinked and had no option but to compromise, “Actually, we just started dating not long ago so nobody at the station knows.”
“I see,” Mo Weiyi said as she picked up a chicken foot and put it in a small bowl, “Now it all makes sense.”
Gu Pingting looked at her: “…”
Makes sense?
What did she mean?
