However.
Huo Tingzun just waved dismissively, "Don’t waste ti on strangers."
The woman and the bodyguard fell silent.
The little boy, however, watched in the direction where Xiao Bailu disappeared and sighed, "That big sister is quite cool. Actually, I’ve always wanted to do that too..."
Huo Tingzun: "..."
The woman quickly intervened, "Little Bao, your dad has a partner interview with the law firm tonight. He’s busy and tight on ti, don’t upset him. Try this cheese lava toast..."
The little boy looked serious, "First, don’t call Little Bao, it’s childish! Second, I’m a man, I don’t like sweets. How many tis do I have to say it for you to rember?"
The woman was left speechless, "..."

Imperial Royal Academy.
Cafeteria.
Huo Zhen stared at the phone with a grave expression.
Sister Lu Lu said, is Huo Tingzun back? How co he, the younger brother, hadn’t heard a whisper about it?
But then again, Huo Tingzun is a prominent lawyer, and his confidentiality is always top-notch.
These past three years, many people thought he was dead, but he reincarnated like a cicada shedding its shell.
If he doesn’t want anyone to know his whereabouts, surely no one can find out.
The question is, why would soone who was thought dead return to the Imperial City?
Those who attacked him back then must be trembling with fear.
Is the Imperial City about to face another bloody storm?
And Sister Lu Lu, with her deep obsession with her brother, will she stir up unrest in the Huo Family?
Huo Zhen sighed.
These matters are certainly worriso, but what concerns him more is sothing else.
"Sister Xin has been missing for 72 hours now. If she doesn’t return soon, I’m going to go on a hunger strike..." Hu Yi counted the grains of rice in his bowl, too worried to eat.
"Wuwuwu, has sothing happened to Sister Xin?" Song Anjing was even more worried; even the milk tasted bland, as she bit the straw and rested her chin, lost in thought.
Ao Xinghao remained silent, deep in thought.
He was searching for sothing on his phone, and after a while, he said, "The Nalan Family has private surveillance satellites. I plan to find a way to check the footage from the day Sister Xin left the school, to see where she went and who she t. If soone has hard her, the surveillance footage should reveal it."
Hu Yi nodded vigorously, "It’s all up to you, Ao Chongchong. My uncle and the Nalan Family are arch-rivals, so I can’t help much, alas."
After a while.
Ao Xinghao breathed a sigh of relief, "Done, the contact agreed to find soone to check. But it will take so ti, and he’ll inform once he knows anything."
Everyone’s expressions were solemn.
The Nalan Family is a top-tier noble family.
Being able to find a connection within the Nalan Family is a remarkable skill.
In the midst of the silence.
Qiu Gang passed by their table with his stainless steel al tray, excitedly saying, "Did you guys see the update Xinghe just released? It ca early today, such a treat. It made my al all the more enjoyable to read the update while eating."
Noticing the unusual expressions on their faces, normally, they would be eagerly discussing Xinghe, all being big fans, why were they not interested today?
Qiu Gang felt a bit disappointed and said to Song Anjing, "Never mind, you can read it yourself tonight. Anyway, I saw your na and was pleasantly surprised. Did you leave a comnt requesting a cao role? Xinghe actually wrote you into his novel, and from the way the plot is developing, you have a very intense emotional storyline with the paranoid villain..."
Song Anjing initially had no mood to pay attention to him.
However, upon hearing this news, she suddenly beca alert.
"It’s Sister Xin! It’s Sister Xin!"
