Chapter 37: Landed In a Deathly Trap
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Even though Tong Yi was curious, she refused to open her mouth to ask. What if she asked and he suddenly changed his mind and decided not to show her around?
As she walked toward the car, she saw Lu Zhanbei getting into the back seat, ushered in by a man in a suit who looked about 20 to 30 years old.
This was the first time Tong Yi saw Lu Zhanbei’s personnel. She decided that she had to find a chance to befriend him to find out about Lu Zhanbei’s preferences from him.
When she reached the car, the man walked around to open the door for her. “Miss Tong, welcome.”
The man had a smile on his face. His eyes were gentle, and his tone was respectful. He was obviously someone who was easy to get along with.
“Thank you.” Tong Yi did not rush into the car. Instead, she took out her phone and clicked on something.
Chen Mu wondered why Tong Yi was standing by the car playing with her phone instead of doing so in the car when she suddenly passed the phone to him. “Can I add you on WeChat?”
Chen Mu’s stunned gaze landed on Tong Yi’s phone screen. She had already opened WeChat and was waiting for him to add him as a friend on WeChat.
He had not expected Tong Yi to want to add him as a friend.
When he came back to his senses, he felt a chill run down his back. He tried to look into the car but his line of sight was partially blocked by the hood of the car. He could only see Lu Zhanbei’s lower body.
Chen Mu subconsciously bent down and wanted to ask Lu Zhanbei’s permission. However, Tong Yi moved her body and blocked his line of sight. She shook her mobile phone in front of Chen Mu’s eyes. “Can I?”
‘Should I?’
If Master Bei found out that he had added Master Bei’s woman’s WeChat, would Master Bei cripple him?
‘What happens if I refuse her?’
Master Bei had never been close to women, but yesterday, he had actually asked the hotel management to open up the hotel’s movie theater at three in the afternoon specifically for Miss Tong to enjoy a movie at that hour. In reality, the hotel’s movie theatre was scheduled to open at eight at night. He had even arranged an auction for her at night but Miss Tong had not been interested and did not attend.
He was also so shocked to find out that Master Bei had not slept a wink the entire night, and that he had been with Miss Tong the entire time!
What was even more shocking was that he had seen Tong Yi carrying a bag of medicine from afar. There was a pharmacy not too far away from her, she must’ve gotten the medicine from there. The medicine contained within the plastic bag was definitely emergency contraceptives!
He was too embarrassed to look into the plastic bag in Tong Yi’s hands.
Tong Yi was definitely the future Mrs. Lu. If he refuses to add her on WeChat, he risks offending the future wife of his boss and he will not have a good life from here on!
Tong Yi naturally did not know what Chen Mu was thinking. Seeing his expression change a couple of times, she thought that he was unwilling to add her on WeChat. Hence, she retracted her hand saying, “If it’s not convenient, then forget it.”
“Of course!” Chen Mu quickly took out his phone, called up his WeChat QR code, and presented it to Tong Yi.
Tong Yi scanned it and sent him a friend request.
Chen Mu immediately put his phone back into his pocket after Tong Yi scanned the QR code. Then, he looked at Tong Yi with a smile and said, “It’s cold outside, you should get in first.”
Tong Yi nodded and entered the car.
After Chen Mu closed the car door, he patted his chest lightly and let out a breath of relief. Fortunately, he was quick-witted and let Tong Yi scan his QR code to send him a friend request. He planned to seek permission from Master Bei afterward before he approved of her friend request. That way, he would not offend either side.
It was such a struggle to please both parties, he felt like he had landed in a deathly trap.
After getting into the car, Chen Mu asked the man in the back seat, “Master Bei, where would you like to go?”
He had received a call from Master Bei a few minutes ago, asking him to drive the car over. Last night, Master Bei had requested for his schedule to be cleared for the morning, so Chen Mu had no clue as to Master Bei’s new plans for the day.
Lu Zhanbei lifted his lips slightly. “Go around and about.”
Chen Mu was rendered speechless. What did that mean? He did not dare to ask his employer for further clarification. Recently, for some reason, he felt that Master Bei’s temper was even more unpredictable than usual. He looked toward Tong Yi for help.
Tong Yi looked at Lu Zhanbei. She saw that he was leaning against the seat with his eyes closed, obviously not planning to speak. She then looked at Chen Mu. “This is my first time in Lan City. I want to look around. Is there anything fun here?”
Chen Mu immediately widened his eyes in shock. Master Bei had emptied his morning schedule just to accompany Miss Tong to play?!
