Chapter 859: 859, [Going to Kyoto 2] How much money do you want?

“Madam, your lemon tea.”

The next morning, in the audio-visual room on the second floor of the Fang Family’s villa in Jinxiu Garden, a servant walked in carrying a tray.

The elegant and luxurious lady sitting on the sofa asked her, “Where is my husband?”

“The master has gone to work, he said he would be back tonight to dine with you.”

“Okay.”

After the servant left, Ruan Qiyang dialed her agent’s number, “I have no events today, check if it’s possible, and let ‘Jia Li’ magazine arrange an interview.”

“Sister Ruan, did you forget? The interview with ‘Jia Li’ magazine was originally scheduled for this morning, but they suddenly canceled yesterday, I told you…”

“Canceled?” Ruan Qiyang furrowed her brows, “Why would they cancel? Wasn’t this interview something they had been eagerly trying to nail down with you?”

“Yes, you have been busy and hadn’t had time for any interviews. It was not easy to schedule them, but yesterday they told me they had to cancel due to some issues. However, they said the next interview time is up to us to decide…”

Ruan Qiyang interrupted her, “Since they’ve decided to cancel, don’t schedule them anymore.”

“Sister Ruan, that might not be good. After all, they’re a benchmark fashion magazine in our country…”

“I never liked giving interviews. Since they’ve initiated the cancellation, why should I insist?”

“That’s not quite how it works…” the agent advised softly, “Everything we’re doing now is for Keying, right? After she finishes this movie, a lot of promotional work will be needed, and ‘Jia Li’ magazine has already agreed to give Keying a cover interview.”

Upon mentioning her daughter, Ruan Qiyang seemed somewhat troubled, “Alright, arrange it.”

After hanging up the phone, she immediately selected one of the latest art films to start screening.

Having been in the entertainment industry for nearly twenty years, although she couldn’t compare in popularity with the current young idols.

But in terms of works, experience, and background…

Ruan Qiyang was ranked second, and currently, no one dares to claim they can firmly surpass her.

With the backing of the Fang Family in Kyoto and the favor of many top directors over the years, she really didn’t need to worry about those so-called resources.

If it weren’t for her daughter, why would she have frequented the headlines these past few years, even becoming the so-called “Hot Search Queen”…

“Knock, knock, knock”.

The door was knocked on a few times.

Ruan Qiyang picked up the remote control and pressed pause.

The servant returned, “Madam, there are two guests downstairs looking for you.”

Guests?

Ruan Qiyang frowned.

It doesn’t seem like I have any friends coming over today, does it?

“Male or female? What are their names?”

The servant said, “A man and a woman, the girl said her last name is Mo, and she’s from Nancheng.”

Ruan Qiyang stiffened, “Nancheng?”

“Yes, she’s quite beautiful…”

“Aunt Wang.” Ruan Qiyang quickly interrupted her, “Tell them I’m not up yet, then ask them what they’re here for? What do they want with me? Come back and tell me after you find out.”

“…Okay.”

After the servant left, Ruan Qiyang became visibly restless.

The movie scene on the big screen was paused, but her gaze remained fixed on the screen, her thoughts drifting far away.

A few minutes felt like an excruciating torment.

Finally, the servant knocked on the door and came in again.

“Madam, that Miss Mo said she came from Nancheng specifically to talk to you about something from Angel Orphanage 20 years ago.”

Ruan Qiyang’s face instantly turned pale.

The light from the screen highlighted the shock and panic in her eyes…

The servant looked worried, “Madam, are you alright?”

Ruan Qiyang quickly said, “Go down and tell her that I don’t know anyone from Angel Orphanage, ask her to leave.”

“…Okay.” The servant agreed but just turned around.

“Wait.” Ruan Qiyang called her back.

The servant turned to look at her, “Madam?”

“Tell her not to come looking for me anymore, I’m not interested in seeing her, even if she comes again I won’t meet with her!”

“…Okay.”

**

Downstairs in the living room.

Mo Weiyi sat on the sofa, her distinct cat-like eyes quietly observing the room’s decor, appearing quite composed on the surface, but her tightly clenched fingers betrayed her unrest.

Next to her, Rong An was sitting with an adoption certificate in his hand.

The layout of this villa was roughly similar to the one they lived in, but the decor style was completely different.

The room was filled with abstract paintings and decorations full of artistic flair.

Near the balcony, a Persian cat crouched lazily sunbathing…

Mo Weiyi thought of the rumors she had found online about the Fang Family: a well-known artistic family in Kyoto, having produced several famous directors. Fang Yuliang was also one of the top media moguls in the Kyoto media circles; his company had nurtured many notable actors and stars over the years…

Suddenly, footsteps approached, and Mo Weiyi instantly snapped back to the present, holding her breath.

When she saw that it was just the servant from before coming downstairs, she slightly frowned.

Upon reaching them, the servant apologetically said, “I’m sorry, our madam says she doesn’t know anyone from Angel Orphanage and doesn’t want to see you, please leave.”

Mo Weiyi was somewhat taken aback, “She said she doesn’t know me?”

Rong An’s brows tightened.

“Yes, please leave.” the servant said again.

Mo Weiyi clenched her fingers, “Did you make it clear to her?”

“I made it clear. Madam said she doesn’t know you and also asked you not to come back.”

This time Rong An spoke, “Take this to her and tell her to come down right now.”

The servant looked surprised and was just about to take the adoption certificate…

With a “snap”, Mo Weiyi stretched out her hand and grabbed the adoption certificate back.

Because of the force, her fingers tightly clutched it, and the paper was instantly crumpled up.

“Princess…”

“Let’s go.” Mo Weiyi stepped towards the door to leave.

Rong An quickly followed, “Princess, I’ll go up and drag her down…”

“No need.” Weiyi’s steps were swift.

Outside the villa, there were several steps, and without careful attention, he almost fell forward, nearly tumbling down the stairs…

Rong An swiftly grabbed her arm, “Be careful.”

Weiyi, still shaken, clung to his sleeve, head bowed, her eyes slowly reddening.

They were silent for quite a long time.

“Princess…”

“Rong An.” The woman’s voice fluttered lightly, “Should I have not come to find her?”

Rong An said, “Princess, just say the word, and I will immediately go and bring her to you…”

“No need.” Weiyi interrupted him, then straightened up, “She doesn’t want to see me at all.”

“That doesn’t matter to her.”

“Forget it.” Weiyi said, taking a step forward as if she had made up her mind, “What’s the point of seeing her forcibly? Let’s pretend this never happened, let’s go.”

Rong An frowned deeply.

But a second later, he quickly followed her.

**

The second-floor media room.

Behind the window, Ruan Qiyang stood there, hand on the curtain, looking down through the gap.

Just as the servant had described, a man and a woman were leaving the villa, walking outside.

She watched the woman closely.

Dressed in a loose-fitting dress, very conservative, sleeveless, ankle-length, viewed from behind, her figure was slender; on her feet were flat leather shoes, her hair half-length and densely curled…

When she heard a knock at the door, Ruan Qiyang quickly released the curtain and then sat neatly back on the sofa.

“Come in.”

The servant walked in, “Madam, Miss Mo has already left.”

“Good.” Ruan Qiyang nodded, “If she comes again, do not open the door, understood?”

“I understand, Madam.”

“And,” Ruan Qiyang instructed with unease, “Don’t let the master know about this. If it gets out, you won’t work here anymore!”

“…Yes, I’ll keep it confidential.”

Her tone was too harsh, making the servant somewhat surprised.

Although Ruan Qiyang was a well-known star, she had always been seen as gentle and virtuous at home, yet today she had turned a guest away and treated her like this…

Noticing the servant’s probing gaze, Ruan Qiyang immediately said, “You may go now.”

“Okay.”

Once the servant had left and the door closed, Ruan Qiyang’s expression instantly changed.

Miss Mo?

So her last name was Mo…

But, why is she coming to find her now?

Ruan Qiyang closed her eyes, her hands tightly clenched, trying hard to control her emotions…

But she eventually couldn’t hold back, and suddenly reached out, grabbed the cup in front of her, and smashed it down.

“Clang!”

With her eyes closed, the repression inside her seemed to burst out instantly.

The past from 20 years ago was the biggest nightmare of her life!

For twenty whole years, she had almost forgotten that she once had another daughter…

Ever since entering show business, she had changed her name and all her previous contacts, completely severed ties with the orphanage, and broken off all connections with anyone from her past…

It shouldn’t have been possible to find her, so why, after twenty years, did this daughter suddenly come to find her?

Ruan Qiyang suddenly stood up again.

No!

She couldn’t let anyone ruin her present life, couldn’t let anyone know about that terrible past.

If this got out, it wouldn’t just affect her family but would also impact her current career and her daughter…

She had worked so hard to achieve her current success and to have a rich and happy life; she couldn’t let it be ruined!

No!

Absolutely not!

Ruan Qiyang silently swore, a ruthless gleam fleeting through her eyes.

Elsewhere.

On her way back to the villa, Weiyi spoke, “Rong An, book the earliest flight back to Nancheng.”

“Okay.”

As Weiyi ascended the stairs, Rong An sat in the living room, taking out his phone.

He intended to make a call but hesitated.

Until eleven o’clock, precisely on the dot, his phone rang.

“Rong An.”

“Mr. Xiao.” Rong An quickly relayed the events.

The man on the phone remained silent until he had heard everything…

“I understand.”

After saying this, Xiao Yebai hung up the phone.

…

Nancheng, Mo Group.

In the CEO’s office, Xiao Yebai sat behind the black desk, the corners of his thin lips slowly curling into a mocking smile.

Ruan Qiyang actually avoiding seeing a visitor?

If so, he had plenty of ways to make Ruan Qiyang come to him willingly…

The phone rang, and the darkness in Xiao Yebai’s eyes dispelled as he answered, “Dad.”

Mo Yaoxiong asked, “Yebai, where is Weiyi?”

“She hasn’t been home these last few days.”

“Not at home? What do you mean?”

“She went to Kyoto.”

“What did she go to Kyoto for?”

“I had someone find information about her birth mother, and she insisted on seeing her…”

“Nonsense!” Mo Yaoxiong interrupted him, “Didn’t I tell you that Weiyi was abandoned at that orphanage back then, her birth mother didn’t want her at all, nor did she leave any clues. Even now that you’ve found the person, it’s impossible to recognize her back. What’s the point of looking for her?”

“I told her,” Xiao Yebai said calmly, “but she wouldn’t listen.”

“What’s the situation now? Has she arrived in Kyoto? Nothing bad has happened, has it? She doesn’t know the place and she’s now pregnant…”

“Don’t worry, Rong An is with her.”

“Ah, I really can’t get away right now. Weiyi’s grandmother just found out about Xu Jing today, she called me a while ago, saying she will come over this afternoon…” Mo Yaoxiong felt helpless, “Yebai, I’m really worried. If you’re free, go to Kyoto and bring Weiyi back.”

Xiao Yebai said indifferently, “I’ve been busy with the new round of marketing plans recently, I can’t leave.”

“…Well then, business comes first,” Mo Yaoxiong sighed, “Alright then, I’ll call Rong An. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll send more people over.”

“Okay,” Xiao Yebai calmly hung up the phone.

**

Afternoon.

Kyoto, Jinxiu Garden.

In the bedroom on the second floor of the villa, Mo Weiyi lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

She had thought about it; since she was born and then left at the orphanage, Ruan Qiyang might have had difficulties, or perhaps she just didn’t want her intentionally…

If it was the latter, Ruan Qiyang’s attitude might be very bad when they met.

But what she hadn’t anticipated was that Ruan Qiyang wouldn’t even give her a chance to meet…

She just wanted to know what exactly happened back then and what kind of people her biological parents were, yet Ruan Qiyang wouldn’t even let her have that chance…

Now it was over.

She had completely lost hope.

Mo Weiyi didn’t feel too sad; it was more disappointment and some confusion.

Since Ruan Qiyang avoided seeing her, looking for her biological father became even harder…

Suddenly, the phone rang.

Mo Weiyi came to her senses, got up, and picked up the phone.

It was that assistant called Ma Bi calling.

She answered, “Assistant Ma.”

“Miss Mo, I hope I didn’t disturb your afternoon rest?”

“No. Is there something you need?” she thought Ma Bi wanted to ask about finding someone, but instead…

“There is a charity dinner tonight at the Himalaya Hotel. Our boss would like to invite you to attend.”

“I’m sorry, I don’t have the time, and I plan to return to Nancheng tonight.”

“So soon?” Ma Bi was surprised, “But our boss said a friend entrusted him to treat you well. You just arrived in Kyoto yesterday and haven’t met our boss yet, he’d have trouble explaining this to his friend…”

“It’s fine, I’ll explain it to Mr. Huo personally.”

“But our boss insisted on inviting you. He also mentioned that friends from Nancheng would be coming tonight, and chances are you know them. Miss Mo, wouldn’t you honor us with your presence? It’s okay if you don’t want to stay long, just come and meet our boss.”

Mo Weiyi continued to decline, “I don’t think so. I’m pregnant now and it’s not convenient, and I didn’t bring any outfits for a dinner.”

“We’ve prepared the gown for you, it can be sent to the villa immediately.”

Mo Weiyi: “…”

Ma Bi continued, “Miss Mo, do you still have any concerns?”

The people of Kyoto are really enthusiastic…

“Miss Mo, if you don’t agree, I might lose my performance bonus for the next half year.”

Not only enthusiastic but coercive and tempting…

Finding it hard to decline the generous offer, Mo Weiyi could only agree, “Alright, I’ll come for a little while tonight and leave after meeting the boss, is that okay?”

“Certainly, I’ll arrange it immediately!”

…

Before four o’clock in the afternoon, indeed, someone came to deliver the gown.

“Miss Mo, my name is Gu Nai, and I’m here to bring you the gown.”

Gu Nai wore a sharply tailored dress and high heels, with a hairstyle, makeup, and accessories all meticulously crafted.

Very beautiful and capable.

Perhaps she’s the boss’s secretary?

Behind her followed two women in uniforms, likely employees from a boutique.

Mo Weiyi smiled and expressed her gratitude, “Thank you, Miss Gu.”

“No problem,” Gu Nai gestured for the employees to display the gown, “Additionally, this one is for Mr. Rong.”

Mo Weiyi asked, “I heard there will be guests from Nancheng tonight, do you know who they are?”

Gu Nai smiled and said, “I’m not quite sure, but the guest list tonight was overseen by our boss, so they should all be good friends of his. Miss Mo, you don’t need to be so nervous.”

Mo Weiyi nodded, “Alright, I understand.”

…

After Gu Nai left, Mo Weiyi returned to her room and sent a message to Su Wanwan.

[Wanwan, is your husband in Kyoto?]

After much thought, apart from Huo Jingshen, she couldn’t think of anyone else from Nancheng who would be friends with the boss and also know her.

Su Wanwan replied, [My husband is injured, how could he possibly go to Kyoto?]

Mo Weiyi was surprised: [Mr. Huo is injured?]

Su Wanwan sent a laughing emoji, [No worries, he just got whipped by my master.]

Mo Weiyi: […]

Alright then.

**

Eight o’clock in the evening.

At the Himalaya Hotel in Kyoto.

Mo Weiyi had just arrived at the hotel entrance when Ma Bi swiftly came over with a few people to welcome her.

“Miss Mo, Mr. Rong.”

Both of them had changed into their gowns.

Rong An still had that expressionless face, but as they say, “Buddha is gold by decoration; people by clothes.” His crisp white shirt paired with black trousers and especially the red bow tie around his neck made him seem much more refined, significantly less fierce.

Mo Weiyi, clutching his arm, was dressed in a conservatively styled light pink gown.

Although she wasn’t wearing high heels, her height of 1.7 meters did not pale in comparison.

She simply wasn’t wearing makeup.

She fundamentally had no mood for grooming, her eyebrows and eyes faint, and her long, curly hair was also liberally spread out; only her naturally delicately featured face with a hint of inherent pride in her eyes, could not be concealed.

“Miss Mo, does the dress fit well?” Gu Nai, who had rushed over, asked with a smile.

Mo Weiyi nodded, “It fits very well.”

In fact, because she was pregnant, although her stomach wasn’t showing yet, she was already over three months pregnant. Lately, she had been eating well and sleeping well, which had made her gain quite a few pounds and her waistline had rounded out slightly.

But this gown seemed as if it had been tailor-made for her…

Thinking this, Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but glance at Ma Bi.

This man…

Was his eye for women’s sizes so accurate?

She didn’t seem to have mentioned her size, had she?

“Miss Mo,” Ma Bi, seeming to have caught her gaze, immediately said with a smile, “Our Sixth Young Master is entertaining guests, you should come in with me first.”

“Okay.”

…

The hotel lobby was glitzy and glamorous, filled with fragrances and elegant appearances.

It was apparent that this was an upper-class gathering.

Mo Weiyi had attended similar soirées in Nancheng before, though opportunities were rare, she had almost always gone with Xiao Yebai.

This was the first time she was attending such an event in a foreign land, with people she wasn’t quite familiar with.

She linked arms with Rong An, following Ma Bi straight ahead until they reached the sofa area in the back.

“Excuse me, pardon me.”

It seemed that a few noble women were gathered together chatting; hearing the voice, several people looked back.

Seeming to all recognize Ma Bi, those people quickly left together.

Then Ma Bi continued, “Let me introduce you all.”

The distinguished lady sitting at the head stood up, looking at Mo Weiyi with a smile.

She was wearing a black evening gown, her complexion creamy and flawless, her face delicate, and her hair styled softly. Her makeup was also elegant, without any overtly flashy jewelry, only a white jade bracelet on her wrist.

Mo Weiyi had been stunned for a long while.

Because she had never thought that on tonight’s charity dinner, she would meet Ruan Qiyang in person here…

Ma Bi began the introduction, “This is Miss Mo from Nancheng, and this is Madam Ruan Qiyang.”

Almost visibly, Ruan Qiyang’s dignified and elegant smile stiffened on her face.

“I think, you two might have some things to discuss face-to-face.” After saying this, Ma Bi turned and left.

Suddenly, only the three of them were left in this corner of the sofa area.

Ruan Qiyang seemed as if struck by lightning, staring fixedly at the young woman opposite her.

Looking at that face, so delicately beautiful it was almost perfect, and yet so familiar…

She already had her answer.

Then, Ruan Qiyang slowly asked, “Are you the Miss Mo who came looking for me this morning?”

Mo Weiyi’s gaze still rested on her face.

Having seen so many movies she had starred in, and so many interviews she had done, never had it felt so real as now.

The Ruan Qiyang before her looked to be just in her early thirties.

Perhaps because today was a charity dinner, she had come with her husband, representing the Fang Family, her dress and demeanor were generously proper, slightly understated.

Even so, because of her strikingly attractive appearance, among those people earlier, Mo Weiyi almost instantly recognized her.

So…

This was what her birth mother looked like.

Mo Weiyi tightly clutched Rong An’s arm.

Her emotions were too complex, and for a moment, she hadn’t even heard what Ruan Qiyang had said…

Ruan Qiyang quickly looked around.

Seeing that Fang Yuliang was engaged in conversation with guests on the other side and had not noticed them here, her facial expression relaxed slightly, and she quickly stood up to say, “It’s not convenient to talk here, come with me.”

Mo Weiyi was slightly startled.

Once Ruan Qiyang started walking towards the back, Rong An spoke up, “Princess?”

Mo Weiyi snapped back to reality and hurriedly followed her.

…

Ruan Qiyang led the way forward, leaving the grand hall, followed the corridor carpeted with red, and eventually they ended up outside.

It was already dark.

She stopped and turned to ask, “Who is he?”

Mo Weiyi came to her senses, “He’s my friend.”

A friend?

While Ruan Qiyang didn’t know how much he knew, she had no choice but to say, “Then have him stay here, make sure no outsiders come over.”

Rong An quickly furrowed his brow.

Yet Mo Weiyi agreed, “Rong An, stay here, don’t worry, I won’t be in any trouble.”

How could Rong An feel reassured.

Seeing Ruan Qiyang’s guarded expression, Mo Weiyi reiterated, “Don’t worry, just stay here, I’ll call for you if I need anything.”

“…Okay,” Rong An could only agree.

**

Upon entering the backyard, Mo Weiyi carefully held her gown as she followed Ruan Qiyang further in, eventually reaching a secluded pavilion.

Ruan Qiyang stopped and then turned around.

There were lights along the path.

In the illumination, her beautiful, delicate face showed a clear nervousness.

Just as Mo Weiyi was about to speak…

“What will it take for you to finally let me go?”

Mo Weiyi was slightly startled, “What are you saying?”
