214 Implenting the Revenge Plan
Lin Jiao hooked him. “We’ll talk when you co back.” She left a kiss on his face before leaving the CEO’s office under his passionate gaze.
That night, she carried out her first plan.
In order to take revenge, she ca out of the shower and put on a red velvet nightgown to video call him on WeChat.
Pei Zhi, who was still dealing with work, leaned against the office chair in the hotel and held a fountain pen with two fingers.
He looked up. “Did you just take a shower?”
“Yes.” Lin Jiao turned on the night light. After confirming that he could see everything clearly, she said in a coquettish voice, “Hubby, I miss you so much.”
With that, she kissed the cara.
Pei Zhi’s eyes darkened.
He closed the distance between him and the screen and rubbed his fingertips against her beautiful face. He said gently, “I miss you too, wifey.”
“Why didn’t you kiss if you missed ?”
“How?”
“Like what I did just now.” Lin Jiao kissed the screen again.
Pei Zhi put his lips on the cara of the phone. As soon as he moved away, he saw her reach out to grab his “kiss” and press it to her heart.
It was too seductive.
“I felt your kiss.” Lin Jiao pushed aside the hair.
Pei Zhi’s throat beca even dryer.
He drank half a glass of water to relieve the heat. “Aren’t you cold wearing so little?”
“I’m not cold.” Lin Jiao lay down with her phone in hand and undid the strap on her shoulder. “Hubby, what ti do you plan to sleep?”
“Before midnight.”
“Will you have insomnia if I’m not around?”
“That’s very likely.” Pei Zhi’s gaze wandered over her collarbone and he raised an eyebrow casually.
Lin Jiao took his calmness as a provocation.
She found the right angle and let go of the phone. Pretending that she was hit by the falling phone, she cried softly, “Ouched.”
Pei Zhi asked in a hoarse voice, “Does it hurt?”
“It hurts.” Lin Jiao raised her phone and touched her skin with her fingertips. “You know how tender my skin is. It’s already red.”
“Where?”
“If you don’t believe , look.” She pointed at her not-so-red skin. “Hubby, do I have to apply the ointnt?”
“You don’t need ointnt. You can just use moisturizer.”
“Then I’ll go and find it.”
He watched as she applied the moisturizer on her skin. Pei Zhi wanted to go ho imdiately to apply it on her.
He rested his chin on his hand. “Honey, I’m going to take a shower.”
Hearing his extrely hoarse voice, Lin Jiao felt secretly satisfied.
She said good night and ended her first plan. She was smiling all the way until she fell asleep.
However, she did not know that Pei Zhi was driven crazy by her seduction, nor did she know what kind of “revenge” she would receive.

At the Gu Corporation.
Gu Quan, who was busy until the afternoon, was woken up after sleeping on the sofa for an hour.
It was Zhang Wanlian who called. “Manxi’s wallet was stolen. Go and pay for her.”
“Can’t you just transfer the money to her?”
“Her phone is dead.”
“Don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence.” He sneered. “Don’t tell she went shopping alone.”
“Why would I lie to you?” Zhang Wanlian showed no signs of anger and said softly, “No matter what, she’s still your sister.”
Gu Quan took a deep breath. “Send the location.”
He arrived at the mall twenty minutes later and found Tang Manxi in a luxury shop.
“Brother Quan.” Her lonely expression disappeared when she saw him, and her smile beca sweet.
She did not have any friends in Lin City. She did co alone and her wallet was indeed stolen.
However, Gu Quan was not in the mood to listen to her explanation.
He bought the bag she liked and asked impatiently, “Do you still want to shop?”
“No.” Tang Manxi picked up the shopping bag and held her stomach with one hand. “I’m very hungry. Can you take to eat?”
She lowered her head, as if she was afraid that he would turn around and leave her at the mall.
Gu Quan rented a charger for her.
“I still have to go back to the company.” As he spoke, he walked towards the escalator without looking at her.
His cold attitude made Tang Manxi indignant.
She imdiately said, “Brother Quan, I told Auntie Wanlian to not force you. Can you not treat like this?”
...
“You can’t force either.”
“Then why are you still alienating ?”
“I’m very busy.” Gu Quan left the escalator and was about to walk out when a familiar face entered his line of sight.
He stopped in his tracks and Tang Manxi followed his gaze, her eyes flashing with interest.
She exclaid, “Brother Quan, isn’t this your girlfriend? Why is she with soone…”
Su Tian and He Qi looked up at the sa ti.
She retracted her hand from his arms. Her back was covered in cold sweat, and her thoughts were running wild, but she did not show it on her face.
“Brother Quan.” He Qi suppressed the emotions in his eyes and greeted him with a smile, “What a coincidence.”
He had not seen Gu Quan for a long ti and did not know what he was up to. Their friendship was also more distant than before.
Gu Quan looked into his eyes and for so reason, he felt an indescribably strange feeling.
The image of Su Tian holding his arm appeared in his mind again. He couldn’t help but frown. “Why are you two together?”
...
“He Qi asked to help him choose a gift for his girlfriend.” Su Tian thought of a lie instantly
She went forward and held his arm, pointing at the shoes at her feet. “These shoes are too difficult to wear. I’ve sprained my ankle a few tis.”
Hearing that, Gu Quan was less suspicious, but he still felt strange.
He glanced at the shopping bag in He Qi’s hand. “Why didn’t you buy a new pair of shoes then?”
“I haven’t had ti yet.”
“Brother Quan, this is?” In order not to make him suspicious again, He Qi stared at Tang Manxi and changed the topic.
Tang Manxi said, “I’m his sister.” She looked at He Qi and Su Tian. “So you know each other.”
“Yes.” He Qi remained calm in front of them. “Since we bumped into each other, let’s have a al together, should we?”
Gu Quan did not refuse.
They went to the Chinese restaurant behind the mall and sat around the round table in the private room.
“When did you get a girlfriend?” Gu Quan took the cigarette from him and slowly lit it.
“More than a month ago.”
“Did your family introduce you?”
“No.” He Qi made up a story and told him.
He glanced at Su Tian from the corner of his eyes. Gu Quan did not notice it because he was smoking, but Tang Manxi caught it once.
Based on a woman’s intuition, she felt that there was sothing fishy going on between the two of them, but there was no evidence and she couldn’t test them openly.
Gu Quan said, “Next ti we gather, bring your girlfriend along.”
