Strongest Abandoned Son - Asking Xiao Lei Out

It was a spirit-gathering formation disk, were there really actual cultivators there? Was it someone like him, who had transmigrated from the cultivation realm? Or was it someone from the hidden sects that could make these formation disks?
    

There was starting energy in the disk, but he didn’t know if it was spirit stones because it was almost out.
    

It was a pity, the starting energy had almost run out. When it was all gone, it would be useless if there was no spirit stones.
    

It was simple to make a formation disk like that one, but the main thing was the driving energy, whether it was essential chi or spirit stones. This was very important to Ye Mo. Comparatively, this formation disk was worth nothing, because Ye Mo could make it himself if he had the materials. Moreover, he didn’t need a formation disk to make formations.
    

It seemed that the cultivators there were as simple as he had thought.
    

Lu Yingying looked worriedly as she saw Ye Mo get lost in his thoughts, staring at the disk. She didn’t know if Ye Mo would attack her because of it.
    

Seeing Lu Yingying’s worried expression, Ye Mo smiled faintly, “This disk has no use for me, you can keep it.”
    

Lu Yingying’s expression changed, her heart sank. Her grandpa’s words hadn’t gotten true. Although she had waited at He Feng for these years and had finally found someone who knew about the Blue Flower Blue Leaf Grass, he wasn’t interested in her price.
    

Seeing her disappointed look, Ye Mo smiled and said, “Don’t worry about your revenge, I came to He Feng this time also to get revenge from the Yuan Family. I won’t hide it from you, I’m the person responsible for Luo Yue in Flowing Snake. The beauty pill incident is due to the Yuan family, do you think I will let them live? So, in at most a week, you will see them disappear from He Feng.”
    

“Are you the president of Luo Yue? Oh my god. The beauty pill and healthy pill are absurd, and you were the one who made them? When I saw that report on the negative effects, I knew it was someone trying to harm Luo Yue. It was so indeed.” Lu Yingying stood up in joy.
    

She was joyful because had Ye Mo promised her to annihilate the Yuan Family, but she was also joyful for meeting the creator of Luo Yue. He was a legendary figure.
    

“So, you don’t need to worry. When the Yuan Family is annihilated, you can also tell reporters about what they did to your family”, Ye Mo said.
    

Lu Yingying bowed to Ye Mo once again. “Thank you. If it wasn’t for you, I may never be able to get revenge in my entire life.”
    

Ye Mo nodded, “That disk will be of no use in a short time, so don’t use it to cultivate Blue Flower Blue Leaf Grass, the ones you cultivated didn’t even have a single flower. It’s medicinal value is very low.”
    

….
    

After Ye Mo had left Lu Yingying’s place, he decided to find a famous reporter to expose them and then look for Shi Xiu. He was going to give his material to Shi Xiu, and make him go find Li Chunsheng. This way, when Li Chunsheng stablises his position in He Feng, he would remember Shi Xiu’s work. This was different from helping Shi Xiu because of him.
    

Ye Mo had low exposure to the media, and so he didn’t know any popular reporters. He thought about asking his friends in Beijing for help, Zhang Jue or Zhuo AIguo, would both do.
    

Thinking about Zhuo Aiguo, Ye Mo suddenly thought of Xiao Lei. With these thoughts, Ye Mo took out Xiao Lei’s business card. Since he knew Xiao Lei and she was a famous reporter in Beijing, he might as well call her.
    

When Ye Mo called Xiao Lei’s number, he just realized it was already 3 a.m. But since he had already called, he wasn’t going to hang up.
    

Xiao Lei was still half awake when the phone started ringing. She couldn’t who would calling her at that moment, did that person have a problem?
    

Xiao Lei had been working for the whole day and didn’t get enough rest, so, of course, anyone would be annoyed at getting a call in her situation.
    

Although she wanted to hang up, her professional behavior made her pick up.
    

“Who is this?”, Xiao Lei’s tone wasn’t nice, after all, it was very late.
    

Ye Mo knew Xiao Lei’s character. If there were bombshell news, she would give that top priority, so he didn’t mind her tone.
    

“I have big news here. He Feng’s mayor laundered tens of million and it resulted in a garbage construction that destroyed a few villages. A company is planning to spread a virus in order to promote its product. Journalist Xiao, are you interested in these news?”, Ye Mo smiled.
    

“What?”, Xiao Lei was shocked by Ye Mo’s words. She had been a journalist for so many years, but this kind of news were rare and it wasn’t just one.
    

“Who are you? How do I know you’re not lying?”, Xiao Lei retained her composure and her tone turned cold.
    

Ye Mo smiled, “We know each other, I wouldn’t lie to you.”
    

“Who are you?”, Xiao Lei thought Ye Mo’s voice was indeed familiar. Who was it?
    

“I’m Ye Mo, I-“, before Ye Mo could say where he was, the phone suddenly hung up.
    

Xiao Lei was struck. The person who had called her was Ye Mo, the man who she one sidedly loved and had a wife. Why did he call her in the middle of the night? Did he use the news as an excuse? She couldn’t believe so many things were happening at the same time.
    

Xiao Lei’s hand started to shake. Ye Mo was asking her out in the middle of the night. She had been taken by surprise.
    

When she finally reacted, she found out that her phone was on the ground. Before she could think twice, she dialed back, but she realized she couldn’t reach him. She didn’t know Ye Mo’s phone and his number had a special contract. if he didn’t set the number, other people can’t call him.
    

“Out of battery?”, Ye Mo said to himself and called again.
    

Xiao Lei was worried and sweating when Ye Mo called back again. She picked up as fast as she could and said, “Ye Mo, where are you?”
    

“I’m at the Wu He Bar in He Feng. I really need your help, these news are real. I need you to spread it as fast as you can”, Úe Mo said calmly, trying not to get her to misunderstand him.
    

“Is it really true?” Xiao Lei calmed down. She realized she was thinking too much. Ye Mo seemed to love Ning Qingxue a lot, how could he be asking her out on a date in the middle of the night? Even if he did, he didn’t need to be like that.
    

Xiao Lei patted her head and calmed down. She thought about it; then she used a slower tone and said, “Ye Mo, you can’t say things randomly like that. If you don’t have any evidence, there will be legal consequences. Don’t leave no matter what. If you need my help, wait until come. Before I arrive, don’t do anything. Even if you have evidence, it’s about a mayor, you can’t spread it out easily just like that.”
    

“Okay. I’ll wait for you at the bar in the morning.” Ye Mo understood her worries. She must have thought he didn’t have evidence. But Ye Mo didn’t mind, if she didn’t dare to do it, he would ask Li Qiuyang for help. This was a small thing for him. Even if he didn’t have evidence, Ye Mo would still do it.
