919: Currying the Favor of a Local Tyrant!

Currying the Favor of a Local Tyrant!

At the mention of the Mo Family, Nian Xiaomu stopped smiling and turned around to look at Zheng Yan, who was the last to get into the car.1

"Based on the information I have received, the Mo Family had sent someone to closely follow the business conference a few days ago. I am not sure who will be coming yet, but I have already helped you with the hotel check-in. Let me take you guys there to deposit your luggage, and I will continue to collect more information after we have had our meal."

Everything was moving systematically with Zheng Yan around.

As the Zheng Family had quite a number of connections in City N, they could be saved from a lot of trouble with Zheng Yan's help.

Neither Yu Yuehan nor Nian Xiaomu stood on ceremony with Zheng Yan at all.

The delegation reached the hotel.

A banner to welcome the business delegation was displayed in the lobby of the hotel.

The receptionist at the front desk was very friendly.

Nian Xiaomu pushed open the door of the hotel's presidential suite and plonked down on the sofa nearest to the window. When she opened the curtains, she saw the beautiful view outside the window and exclaimed, "The Mo Family is too generous, I won't want to leave after I have stayed here for the night."

Nian Xiaomu flipped her body on the sofa and turned around to ask Yu Yuehan.

"Will my room be like this too?"

Yu Yuehan was stunned. As he paused bending his back to place something onto the side of the bed, he cast her a sideways glance and said.

"Your room?"

"Yes, I am the head of the Yu Corporation's public relations department, and I am one of the members of your business trip delegation as well. The organizing committee should prepare a room for me, right?" Nian Xiaomu answered as a matter of course.

Yu Yuehan straightened his back completely when he heard this.

The corner of his mouth curved into an arc—it was a smile, yet at the same time, it wasn't a smile.

As he met her gaze, he said with a pause between every word.

"Perhaps there isn't a room for you."

"…"

Yu Yuehan continued and said, "You are not on the hotel rooming list that Executive Assistant Yang submitted the other day. As such, apart from sleeping with me, you can only sleep on the road."

"…!"

Nian Xiaomu had turned into a "roomless" person for no reason. In a bid to prevent herself from spending the night out in the open, she could only stick closely to Yu Yuehan's side by hugging onto his thigh.

When they entered the restaurant, they were still on the topic of…

"Nian Xiaomu, there is only one room card. You must stick close to me, otherwise, I can't guarantee that you will not be shut outside the room…"

Just like an obedient wife, Nian Xiaomu stood beside Yu Yuehan and nodded her head incessantly.

Zheng Yan suspected that she had entered the wrong restaurant when she saw this scene.

After she had taken just a step forward, she retreated backward and raised her head to take another look.

It was the restaurant that she had made a reservation at.

This meant that she must have witnessed something ghostly!

"What show is the dramatic couple putting on this time around? I have received news that Mo Qian has been overseas for a business trip and he has just returned to the country today. Based on what I have heard, he will be present at the event venue to take a look at the decor later on. It will be just in time for us to head over after we have had our meals."

Zheng Yan simply walked into the restaurant as she said this.

Zheng Yan had reserved seating and the menu in advance.

"I don't know what you guys like to eat but I have ordered a few specialty dishes of City N; taste them and see if they are up your alley. If they are not, we can order something else."

Nian Xiaomu had only had breakfast in the morning and had not had a filling in-flight meal during the afternoon. As such, she was already so famished that she felt as if she was floating in the air.

When she saw that the service staff had started to serve the dishes, without a second thought, she picked up her chopsticks and stretched her hand out toward the specialty dish that Zheng Yan had mentioned.

She took a bite hastily and swallowed it in one gulp.

Just as she was about to say that the dish was nice, she suddenly noticed that the taste was a little familiar and was taken aback.

Worried that she had imagined it, she picked up the dish before her with her chopsticks and tasted it again.

"I seem to have tasted this dish before…"
