Chapter 478: 481 Given A Month

However, it was also unreasonable for Cao Haoyue to question Elder Liao since he was the person who can be considered as a victim. His people disappeared without a clue of his whereabouts and the Cao family was the only one who could give him an answer.

Yet, she actually dared to ask him this question?

Xiaoshun disappeared. An Hun tried to do everything to find him, and the organization was not a simple organization that gathers information, they are an organization that held a reputation that no one should dream of smearing dirt.

The backing that An Hun had was also something that the Cao family could not underestimate, but with the words Cao Haoyue just uttered, was she questioning their competence in doing their job?

Obviously, it was not only Elder Liao, who was seething in anger. Old Master Cao was ashamed and dared not look at An Hun's elder's face. Even Xue Zhao, who should be an innocent bystander, lowered his head as if he was the one who was ashamed by Cao Haoyue's words.

Old Master Cao saw Cao Haoyue still wanting to say more and cleared his throat before he spoke quickly: "I let Elder Liao see such an embarrassing scene. Please forgive my niece's impertinence."

No matter what, Cao Haoyue was still his family and he could only coax Elder Liao not to get angry.

Elder Liao didn't take his eyes off of Cao Haoyue as he said: "Good… Your Cao family is really good and smart. Then, you should also know that these grievances cannot be washed away with a simple apology, right?"

His words were directed at both Old Master Cao and Cao Haoyue.

Not caring about how the two looked as he continued," Since you think An Hun is not up to the task of finding my junior then, I'll let the Cao family handle things and find him for us."

Old Master Cao: "This…"

Elder Laio interrupted him before he could say anything to refuse: "There is no need to hesitate. Since your Cao family is so confident, I am looking forward to getting some results from your side. If you really find my junior and bring him to me, I will naturally reward the Cao family very handsomely. But if you don't…"

His eyes suddenly swept towards Cao Haoyue, who finally realized the blunder she created and wished she could sew her mouth shut, before looking at Old Master Cao with a smile that was not a smile.

Elder Liao continued: "Expect An Hun to not show mercy and know that An Hun does not fear anything in this world."

Since there was nothing else to say to these people, Elder Liao turned around and headed for the door.

Just as he was about to leave, he left some words and said: "I will give the Cao family a month to prove your talent and skills. I wish you good luck and find my junior as soon as possible."

Even though his words were somewhat auspicious and seemed like cheering someone to do their best, the cold glint in Elder Liao's eyes and the meaning of his words swept a cold chill in the hearts of the people inside the study.

​ Bang!

The door was closed with a thunderous noise.

Inside the study, silence fell and remained for a long time.

Cao Haoyue felt a myriad of emotions and was definitely overwhelmed by it that she ended up kneeling in front of Old Master Cao.

No longer recklessly and stupidly saying what comes to her mind, she could only ask for forgiveness and hope that Old Master Cao won't retaliate to her and her family.

Seeing her crying with tears and snots, Old Master Cao glared at Cao Haoyue but since everything was already done and there's no way to burn the bridge after crossing it, he could only dismiss her and warn her to behave for the next couple of weeks.

Xue Zhao was calmer now as he approached the desk and arranged the scattered papers on the ground and on the desk.

His gaze secretly looked at the Old Master's darkened face and tentatively said, "Master, Seventh Miss might have made a mistake. But her intentions were certainly not without reason."

Old Master Cao glared at his secretary for a few seconds after hearing his words. But in the end, he could only sigh and said: "I know. You don't have to remind me."

Xue Zhao was not only saying this for the sake of defending Cao Haoyue to the old master. Actually, he was doing this to make certain that Old Master Cao wouldn't be too muddled with anger that he could not see the bigger picture.

Old Master Cao scratched his chin and asked, "Cao Haoyue is my niece. She was definitely set up by my daughter. But I can't blame both of them for this because that bastard from the Song family is getting too strong and way out of control." He paused suddenly before frowning, "Was he really enraptured by that actress?"

Knowing that Old Master Cao has little knowledge about this matter, he carefully said: "It is actually unknown. The actress Ran Xueyi announced that she is married and Song Yu Han said they are acquainted with each other. However, she had been introduced to the Old Patriarch Song during his party. But the Elder Miss and Seventh Miss could not allow a woman into Song Yu Han's life."

Song Yu Han was not only an eyesore to the members of the Song Family, even the Cao family was irritated and itching that they could not find out about him sooner and snuffed him out of his life before Old Patriarch Song took him from his mother.

However, nobody really expected that the thin and skinny young boy from the past would actually grow tall and even become a pillar that nobody could break.

It would have been better if Song Yu Han stayed a fool and became a wastrel. Then, Song Yongrui's incompetence wouldn't be too obvious and transparent.

But it was too bad that not only Song Yu Han became an excellent man who ascended from a poor and easy to bully young man to a man that not many could afford to offend, he actually became worthy of the title 'Young Master Song'.

Obviously, he was just an illegitimate child born from Song Ruan's previous entanglement with Lu Tingting. He should have been buried in the dust. But rather than becoming a decoration that people could only see and admire before forgetting about him, Song Yu Han's name resounded throughout the country.

Naturally, no one from the Song and Cao family wanted Song Yu Han to get married and have his children first. Because that would only solidify his position in the hearts of the directors and elders of both families.

Old Master Cao sneered: "It's too bad that my daughter and niece failed to do something about that woman."

Xue Zhao sweated a bit and asked: "Master, what should we do? Should I do something about this woman named Ran Xueyi?"

Old Master Cao shook his head and told him, "Let's talk about this later. For now, we should help An Hun find the junior that went missing."

The matter with Song Yu Han and Ran Xueyi should not be too urgent.

Rather, it was An Hun that Old Master Cao needed to take care of quickly since there's a deadline.

…

Cao Haoyue came out of the Old Master's study and with a pale face, she walked out of the mansion and got into her car wordlessly.

She felt like fainting, but she still had to drive back to her house.

As her car drove out of the iron gate, Cao Huiling looked on through the window in the third floor of the mansion.

When she heard that her father called Cao Haoyue into his study, she was envious. Her father hasn't been giving her attention and looked for his niece instead. She was worried that Cao Haoyue would steal her father's trust so she lingered around.

But who would have thought that not even a half an hour passed, an unfamiliar old man came out of her father's study with a murderous aura wrapping his entire body.

Even Cao Huiling, who has met a lot of people who had a unique aura around them, this old man still made one feel cold and afraid.

She wanted to inquire who that old man was but she was not given any answer.

She was still brimming with envy when suddenly, she saw Cao Haoyue looking extremely pale and as though she lost ten years of her life.

Somehow, her heart was comforted and she happily watched her from afar.

A maid appeared behind her and reported: "Eldest Miss, the young master just left saying that he will go to his friends to drink."

The delight in cao Huiling immediately vanished as soon as she heard this as she helplessly sighed and prayed that her son would snap out of his behavior.
