Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle!-Chapter 794 - 711: Reliable Work

He Yinyin immediately instructed several subordinates to follow Xu Er! See what he’s planning next!

At this moment, Yin Rui, sharp-eyed, spotted Xu Er heading out of the banquet hall. He hurriedly quickened his pace and intercepted him: "Xu Er! The wedding is about to start, where are you going?"

Since Leng Er and his wife didn’t show up, He Zixi wasn’t giving him any face.

If Xu Er left early again, where would his dignity go!

Xu Er raised an eyebrow slightly, giving him a once-over: "To the bathroom! What, you want to come with me?"

He was growing increasingly dissatisfied with Fatty Yin—and his sister!

If it hadn’t been for Yin Peiwen’s sudden appearance messing everything up, he might have uncovered more!

His thrill wasn’t even over yet, but it had to abruptly end. Could he willingly accept that?

A flash of awkwardness crossed Yin Rui’s face. He was well aware his behavior seemed a little insecure, but he still chuckled and nodded: "Sure! I have this habit—whenever I get nervous, I feel like going to the bathroom. After all these years, it hasn’t changed! Let’s go together then!"

Xu Er’s eyes showed irritation, but outwardly, he played along with him.

"Alright then! Who would’ve thought you’d still be like this at your age!"

The two walked one after the other toward the bathroom. Among the crowd, a few people cautiously followed them.

Little did they know, once they left the banquet hall, four others were following closely behind, watching over Xu Er’s safety like hunters trailing their prey.

Emerging from the bathroom, Xu Er was holding a cigarette. He took a drag and rubbed his forehead: "Yin Rui! You go in first! I’ll finish my cigarette!"

"Alright! Xu Er! Let’s have a good drink together later!"

Yin Rui couldn’t continue tagging along. With the wedding ceremony about to begin, he had to leave.

Xu Er waved him off, merely nodding without responding.

Once Yin Rui walked away, Xu Er extinguished his cigarette, leaned slightly toward the mic on his body, and whispered, "Wait for my triumphant return!"

Xu Er returned successfully, greeted enthusiastically by Bai Shasha and Li Si.

Leng Mochen’s eyes carried a trace of amusement: "No tails following you?"

Xu Er boasted smugly, "What do you mean no? They were all intercepted by our people! That’s how I managed to escape!"

Moments ago, it felt like being in a crime thriller! You couldn’t even imagine the tension!

Thankfully, a few skilled hands helped fend off the pursuers. Otherwise, he might really have been tracked to this spot.

Bai Shasha anxiously grabbed Xu Er’s arm, inspecting him: "You’re okay, right?"

She had secretly been worried earlier, afraid he might get hurt.

Seeing him seemingly unharmed, at least on the surface, she finally felt relieved.

Xu Er hurried to reassure her: "I’m fine! Isn’t it obvious I’m standing here perfectly well?"

Then he turned to the group: "Hey, what do you all think? How’d I do just now? Pretty good, right? If it hadn’t been for Yin Peiwen’s sudden appearance, I could’ve stayed a bit longer!"

Talking about it now, Xu Er couldn’t help feeling it was a pity—he could’ve done even better.

Leng Mochen patted his shoulder: "No worries! Staying longer wouldn’t have mattered!"

He Yinyin and the others were already aware, so they wouldn’t reveal anything anymore.

Staying longer would only have put Xu Er in danger.

Long Wu reached out his arm to drape it over Xu Er’s neck, "Xu Er! You kid—didn’t expect you’d pull it off! Calm and fearless! I salute you!"

Xu Er shrugged off his arm, laughing: "Glad you respect it! I’m not like you, unreliable! I handle things properly!"

"..." Long Wu decided to let it go this time, not bothering to argue with him.

Leng Mochen suggested: "Let’s go! Let’s leave here first!"

The group swiftly exited the scene...

Meanwhile, at the other end, when He Yinyin heard the report from her subordinates, she learned her quarry had slipped away.

The bad premonition in her heart grew stronger; she regretted not following Lu Qilin’s earlier advice, which led to her underestimating the enemy.

Previously, Leng Mochen’s series of moves clearly aimed to create some false perceptions about him.

To mix successfully in Beijing’s tangled web, thriving amidst the chaos, how could he be without cunning and strategies? 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

But whether due to innate good luck or possessing extraordinary treasures, Li Si was someone she absolutely wouldn’t let go of easily.

The sudden arrival of the financial crisis had brought her tremendous losses. On the surface, she was still the formidable He Yinyin.

In reality, only she and her confidants knew—her career was in freefall, and if this continued, the once-invincible her would soon vanish from the circle.

The information about Li Si was like injecting a glimpse of hope into her business, which was spiraling into crisis.

...

Back at Li Si’s home, everyone was comfortably eating and chatting.

Xu Er vividly recounted the tension and thrill he’d felt earlier.

Long Wu occasionally interjected, disrupting the storytelling, while Leng Mochen chuckled silently.

Li Si and Bai Shasha finished eating first and were now sitting on the sofa with Su Meng, chatting idly.

Su Meng had been brought over by Long Wu, accompanied by her little Peanut.

Bai Shasha had her godson Buding perched in her lap, while Li Si, as Peanut’s mother, leisurely sat on the side, teasing Su Meng, who held little Peanut.

Clearly, Buding, who hadn’t seen Peanut for some time, was quite enamored with this fair, chubby new companion.

Even though Peanut couldn’t yet say much—mostly babbling unintelligible syllables—it didn’t hinder the communication between the two little ones.

But Peanut, with his perpetually enigmatic expression, occasionally looked at Buding with thinly veiled disdain in his eyes.

Fortunately, Peanut showed great interest in the tiny monkey Xiao Guai. He repeatedly tried to reach out toward the monkey, who stayed close to Buding.

Sadly, Xiao Guai only had eyes for Buding, completely ignoring Peanut’s eager gaze.

Since reaching 100 days, Peanut had grown sturdier, his expressions consistently aloof, and his eyes—at least in Li Si and Bai Shasha’s view—maintained an astonishing air of tranquility.

Bai Shasha and Li Si exchanged a glance, cautiously commenting, "Meng Meng, I’ve noticed when compared side-by-side, your Peanut has such calm eyes!

Is he like this at home too? He seems so mature for his age! I bet he doesn’t cry, right?"

However, Su Meng, as his mother, didn’t think much of it.

She deliberately glanced down at her son, smiling: "Really? I never thought about it! But my son is indeed very mature—he hardly ever cries! Even when getting his vaccines, he never cries!"

Li Si actually liked Su Meng’s son quite a lot, but his gaze and expression often sparked absurd thoughts of reincarnation in her mind.

After teasing him for a while, Peanut gave Li Si a knowing, half-smiling glimmer—it was almost unsettling!

Li Si couldn’t resist the urge to touch Peanut’s chubby face, "Smile for me!"

Why did it suddenly feel like she was trying to provoke him!

Peanut squinted his eyes slightly, then reached out his chubby hand to grab hold of Li Si’s hand resting near his cheek.

Bai Shasha watched nervously. Ever since Su Meng gave birth, Bai Shasha had felt the child wasn’t ordinary.

Now, seeing Li Si provoke him like this, Bai Shasha wondered how Peanut would respond.

Li Si also held her breath slightly, waiting to see what Peanut would do next.
