CHAPTER 300: GOSSIP, RIVALRIES, AND A NIGHT OF FUN

"Mo Xiaobai has two older brothers who are just as charming as he is. I’ve never seen people so good-looking. He also has a sister with purple eyes who is a great beauty. I’ve seen their family photos, and every single one of them is incredibly stunning. Even their parents are gorgeous," Wen Nuan said. Mo Xiaobai had shown her their family photo, as well as photos of Su Man, Bai Ye, and others, which had completely captivated Wen Nuan.

They were all so exceptionally beautiful. Just looking at the people in the photos, she most liked the Su Man type, with her ethereal, otherworldly feel.

Ye Feimo rolled his eyes. This person had already been infatuated with their photos back in Rome.

But truthfully, the Su and Mo families were... well, they had unearthly good looks.

Their Ye family also had a history of good looks, refined and unparalleled. Their kind of beauty was at least something that should exist on Earth, unlike the rare, unmatched beauty of the Mo and Su families.

"Who is Mo Xiaobai?" Gao Chunmiao asked after a pause.

"He’s Ye Yan. He’s Ye Er’s cousin. Wait, don’t you all know?" Wen Nuan asked.

The men all knew, but the women clearly didn’t.

"Ye Er Ge, why didn’t you ever mention it?" Tang Man Dong asked, her voice rising like an out-of-tune erhu, suddenly soaring high.

"You never asked."

"Damn it, this is the kind of thing you should have mentioned right away! Ye Yan! He’s your cousin. It’s such a big deal. Brother, you’ve known all this time, why didn’t you say anything?"

"Why should I?" Tang Shuwen shot back. He was still trying to get over his desire to strangle Mo Xiaobai. Why would he mention him all the time? Tang Si and Wen Lan didn’t have a deep connection with the Mo family, and since the Mo family had a special status, Tang Si wouldn’t have said anything even if he knew.

Mo Xiaobai, Kaka, Mo Yao, and Mo Chen didn’t visit A City very often, maybe two or three times a year, so they didn’t have a chance to meet.

Their familiarity came from the fact that their children all had to undergo special training to avoid being helpless if they were ever kidnapped. Initially, the training was handled by Longmen, which had a very complete training system, but it wasn’t as good as Ye Ningyuan’s First Terrorist Organization.

However, Ye Ningyuan was a very extraordinary man. He would not allow anyone who wasn’t part of his organization to receive his training.

Ye Feimo didn’t want to go to the secret agent island. Training alone was too boring, so he decisively went to the mafia. Because the Mo family’s children were trained by Ye Wei and Shi Yi, going to the Mo family meant he could bully Mo Xiaobai and Mo Chen. When Ye Feimo went, Tang Shuwen followed. Naturally, Lin Diyun also went. Ye Wei and Shi Yi also liked training children, so they didn’t mind. The boys underwent special training together for a few years, and after they had a solid foundation, Ye San Shao threw them into Longmen. That’s how the boys became so familiar with each other.

Lin Ning and Director Gu were not the same age as them, but they were a group of adventurous men. When Mo Xiaobai and Mo Chen were on missions, they would often meet up with them to go on adventures. Lin Ning’s personality was the most compatible with Mo Xiaobai’s, and they became close after just a couple of times.

However, Lin Ning wasn’t very familiar with Mo Yao.

It would be more accurate to say that, aside from Ye Feimo, no one here was very familiar with Mo Yao.

Mo Yao’s special training was separate from Mo Chen’s and Mo Xiaobai’s. He was trained by Ye Wei, Shi Yi, and the two brothers from the Mo family. His training was more rigorous, so he didn’t have time to hang out with them.

Ye Ningyuan, Ye Wei, and Shi Yi would sometimes challenge each other to see whose successor was stronger, and also to help the children build camaraderie. So, they would have several competitions a year.

Kaka and the other leaders of the First Terrorist Organization were also very familiar with them. Ye Tianyu was in full-seclusion training and was not included.

"Wen Nuan, you’ve actually stayed at his house? I’m so jealous."

Cai Xiaojing smiled. "When he comes to the *Liang Hongyu* set, we’ll form a team and bother him every day. Wen Nuan said he’s easy to get close to."

Chen Xueru also raised her hand. "I’ll go too."

Tang Shuwen’s eyes went wide.

Lin Ning gritted his teeth and clenched his fist. "Mo Xiaobai, for my film, you’re dead. I’m going to torment you to death. I’ll make you look as ugly as possible, wearing old-age makeup from beginning to end."

Far away in Italy, a certain Mo Xiaobai, who was rarely scolded by Ye Feimo and was feeling a bit more responsible as he worked on the mafia’s North American financial reports, sneezed. He was deeply moved, thinking, "It must be my little sister-in-law missing me."

"You wouldn’t dare!" The fan club of women all shouted at the same time, especially Tang Man Dong and Gao Chunmiao, who were young and brash. With their hands on their hips, they looked as if they were saying, "If you dare, we’ll tear you apart." Cai Xiaojing also gave him a cold stare.

The men felt a great deal of sympathy for Lin Ning.

The handsome director was not one to be intimidated. He slammed his hand on the table. "Just wait and see how I deal with him! Ye Er, increase the budget. I’ll make him do so many takes that he’ll wish he were dead."

Everyone, "..."

The handsome director had clearly lost his temper.

Ye Feimo decisively turned his head. "Pay for it yourself."

Director Gu, Su Ran, and Lin Diyun all laughed. Tang Shuwen looked at Chen Xueru, sulking. "Wife, we’re not starring in *Liang Hongyu* anymore."

"Yes, you’re not starring. I am," Chen Xueru said with a gentle smile, correcting his small mistake. Tang Shuwen became even more dejected, leaning closer to Chen Xueru. Su Ran rolled his eyes. "Damn it, can you two stop being so affectionate in front of a bunch of single people? Are you trying to provoke us?"

Lin Ning glanced at Cai Xiaojing. "Don’t you have some sense of your age? You’re still chasing stars with these little fangirls. Aren’t you embarrassed? You’re a manager, it’s not like you’ve never seen a celebrity before."

Just as Cai Xiaojing was about to retort, the two "fangirls" he was talking about had already stood up, hands on their hips, glaring angrily at Lin Ning. The combined force of the two domineering women was not to be underestimated, even making Ye Feimo’s cheek twitch.

"Who are you calling a fangirl?"

"Whoever stands up is a fangirl. I didn’t even name you, and you’re so quick to respond. No one would believe me if I said you weren’t fangirls."

"Man Dong, go get him! Beat him up!" Gao Chunmiao grabbed a wine bottle. Tang Man Dong pounced and immediately grabbed Lin Ning’s hair. The three of them were in a scuffle, and Wen Nuan was laughing so hard her stomach hurt.

Cai Xiaojing’s lips twitched. "Serves him right!"

Tang Shuwen and the others drank and watched the show, letting them get into a scuffle.

It was a beautiful moment. They were young, energetic, and happy, a group of like-minded friends laughing and bickering. If life could be like this forever, how wonderful would that be?

Ye Feimo turned his head to look at her, gently wrapping his arm around her shoulder.

He began to understand why his dad, mom, and aunt, and their whole group, always traveled together. It was indeed very happy. The world of two had its own happiness, and the world of many had its own liveliness.

While they were all making a ruckus, Wen Nuan chose a song to sing. "Keep up the good fight, you guys. I’ll sing a song to cheer you on."

She picked a rock song. Chen Xueru also wanted to sing, so Wen Nuan switched to a rock duet. The two women swayed and danced as they sang. The music’s rhythm was fast and intense, with a frantic drumbeat. On the other side, one man and two women were fighting. The atmosphere of the entire room was simply indescribable.

Two women made a scene; three women turned the place upside down.
