Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

That night, Qi Qingyao kept complainning for a while before falling asleep with Xiaobao in her arms.

Si Jin and Jiang Yeqian left the room.

They even remembered to close the door after them.

When they were about to return to the next room, Jiang Yeqian stared at Si Jin intently with mirth in his eyes, as if he was waiting for him to leave.

Si Jin was not fazed. He flew out from the window calmly and disappeared.

Jiang Yeqian followed after him. He did not hide himself in the process. He wanted to know where Si Jin ran off to every night.

However, as always, Si Jin disappeared after turning the second junction.

Jiang Yeqian was furious. He plucked a leaf from a tree and blew.

After a while, a woman clad entirely in black appeared.

Bai Mei knelt down on one knee.

"Boss."

"I asked you to investigate someone. Have you gotten any results?"

"No, Boss."

Bai Mei 's voice sounded heavy when she said those words.

They had found nothing at all. This made her feel helpless.

Jiang Yeqian took a deep breath. He suppressed the urge to reprimand his useless subordinate and said in his deep voice, "What have you found so far?"

"Si Jin, male, eighteen years old. Unknown origins. Likes to eat rice, but dislikes meat. Qi Qingyao's little lackey. Great at carpentry and knows how to kill wild boars. Every night, he will disappear from the inn. Where he goes remains unknown. The men we sent after him have all failed to track him," Bai Mei said.

Jiang Yeqian: "..."

Bai Mei: "..."

Jiang Yeqian once again took a deep breath and resisted his urge to kick Bai Mei over to the wall. He said hoarsely, "I had you investigate him and this is all you have?"

Bai Mei lowered her head. "We're working on it."

"And this is the result of your work?" His soft voice was laced with murderous intent.

"..." Bai Mei subconsciously retracted her neck.

Jiang Yeqian knew that Bai Mei was not to be blamed. He had tailed Si Jin over the past few days and had not discovered anything either. It was a given that the other agents would not be able to find anything. However, this still made him angry. He could not help but exclaim, "This is how low we have fallen…"

Bai Mei felt wronged. "Boss, this has been the only exception. His origins are hard to find." They had sent out hundreds of men, but failed to obtain anything on him.

Jiang Yeqian said, "Ah, whatever. I've not been present recently and didn't manage you well. Now all of you are investigating one person and have sent many agents after him, but somehow you know less than I do."

"..." Bai Mei lowered her head, her face red with shame.

When Jiang Yeqian was about to turn back and leave, Bai Mei suddenly said, "Boss, the State Preceptor might start having doubts if you do not return to the capital."

"Assume that I'm dead then," Jiang Yeqian said harshly, and continued, "You can stop investigating this person for now, lest you embarrass me."

"Yes, boss." 'Is the boss not planning to return to the capital? Does he want to stay in this inn forever?' Bai Mei thought.

Jiang Yeqian saw that Bai Mei had no plans to leave. "What are you still doing here?"

"Boss… I have something to say," Bai Mei said.

"Say it," Jiang Yeqian replied.

"As the Head Grand Secretariat, if you don't make an appearance, either alive or dead, it won't be just the State Preceptor starting to question things. The Emperor might also send someone after you," Bai Mei said, gritting her teeth.

Jiang Yeqian narrowed his eyes. "Did Zhao Xin ask you to say that?"

"No." Bai Mei shook her head. She said carefully, "I just have a question. You haven't lost your memories, so why are you pretending that you have while staying beside this woman named Qi Qingyao?"

Jiang Yeqian was speechless. He actually did not know the answer to her question.

Right.

He had put aside his responsibilities as the Great Secretariat.

He had shrugged off his position as Master of the Zhaixing Administration.

Why was he still with Qi Qingyao?
