Huo Xiting narrowed his eyes and prepared to look for Ye Beisheng.

Then, Lin Long suddenly pulled his sleeve. “Ninth Master, Ninth Master, listen to my advice!!”

Huo Xiting glanced at him lightly, and the latter hurriedly let go of his hand and said earnestly, “Ninth Master, Xie Lan was so gentle earlier with Madam. You should be gentle too. Maybe Madam likes men who are sensitive and gentle?”

The chauffeur who came to the Huo Residence to pick them back to the Misty Mountain Villa was speechless.

One had the audacity to teach while the other one listened.

‘Besides, Deputy Lin, you said last time that you wanted Ninth Master to appear more domineering but why are you asking him to be gentle now just after 2 weeks?”

Huo Xiting frowned.

Ignoring Lin Long, he walked straight ahead.

Ye Beisheng had just finished complaining to Qin Zhou when she turned around and was almost shocked. “Are you done with your business?”

“Yes, the driver is here. Let’s go home.”

After Huo Xiting said this, he thought of something and ordered, “Xie Lan is not as gentle and harmless as he looks on the surface.”

Even if Huo Xiting didn’t say this, Ye Beisheng knew it, so she nodded her head.

After getting in the car, the driver and Lin Long sat in the front row. Huo Xiting asked calmly after he raised the partition. “Ye Beisheng, do you think Xie Lan is rich?”

Ye Beisheng was speechless.

What kind of question was this?

How can you ask such a question that doesn’t suit your status?

Although she didn’t know why Huo Xiting asked, she still answered truthfully, ‘ He should be quite loaded.”

One gram of californium was worth 30 million US dollars. Although the production of this element was extremely limited, Xie Lan was able to control the entire world’s californium. His wealth was definitely not something measurable.

Huo Xiting nodded, seemingly satisfied with this answer.

Before Ye Beisheng could figure out what he was up to, he said calmly, “But he’s not as rich as me.”

Ye Beisheng was confused.

‘Wait a minute, Ninth Master asked her if she thought Xie Lan was rich, and his motive was to tell her that he was richer than Xie Lan?’

Satisfied, Huo Xiting closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.

“If you like money, you should like me the most.”

Then, he stopped talking.

He was richer than Xie Lan. If Ye Beisheng liked money, she should like him.

Ye Beisheng’s heart skipped a beat.

This was… What did he mean?

She always felt that the first part was not the main point. The main point was the last sentence. Does….. She has to like Huo Xiting the most?

After returning to Yunshan, this question still lingered in her mind. Unfortunately, Huo Xiting went straight into the study and didn’t come out until she went to bed.

Ye Beisheng thought about it for the whole night and only fell asleep when the sky was almost bright.

However, at around eight o’clock, the principal suddenly called.

Ye Beisheng was too drowsy. Although she saw who the caller was, her brain had yet to process it. She said sleepily, “….Hello?”

The principal’s terrified voice sounded from the other side. “Student Beisheng, you’re still asleep?”

Ye Beisheng rubbed her eyes, opened the window, and said in a calm voice, “Principal, what is it?”

Seeing that she was awake, the principal carefully said, “Student Beisheng, are you free now? Could you please make your way to the campus?”

Ye Beisheng didn’t have class this morning. She was about to ask what had happened.

However, before he could ask, he heard an impatient middle-aged man’s voice coming from behind the principal.

“Principal Zhang, what’s the point of dawdling with a student? Tell her that we suspect that she cheated on the English test and need her to come to school to explain herself.

Ye Beisheng narrowed her eyes.

Cheating?

Who was this man?
