“W…What did you say?!?”
Xu Xue Ning blurted out in surprise. She thought she’d misheard it. Her facial expression, though hidden under her surgical mask and big sunglasses, showed a great deal of surprise.
Not long after that, her expression changed into a happy one. She thought that it had been a fantastic idea to take a risk and ask Bai Chen to pretend to be her boyfriend.
Xu Xue Ning knew that she had been right all along. Bai Chen was really down-to-earth and kind.
“I told you that I’d pretend to be your boyfriend,” Bai Chen said with a calm tone. “When are we going to Beijing?”
Xu Xue Ning quickly suppressed her emotions. She thanked him. “T…Thank you.”
She hesitated a little. If possible, she actually wanted him to go to Beijing with her today, because today was the deadline that she had given to her mother.
In the morning, Xu Xue Ning’s mother had called and asked about her bringing her boyfriend ho.
For her mother, it was a happy feeling that her daughter, who had never had a boyfriend or seed to be interested in anyone, had finally gotten herself a boyfriend.
She wanted to see what kind of person her daughter had picked to be her first boyfriend. That was why she’d called so early in the morning.
She did not care much about how suitable he was for her.
Suitability was not important to her. It was more important that her daughter had found the one she loved.
But what the higher-ranking people in the family would think was a different question.
Even though Xu Xue Ning’s mother was supportive, it was impossible for her to not listen to the higher-ranking people in the Xu family.
No matter what, the Xu family was a big family. It was one of the five big families of Beijing anyway.
“What do you say?” Bai Chen asked again because Xu Xue Ning had gone silent.
Hearing his question, Xu Xue Ning pursed her beautiful lips. Her fists tightened. She finally spoke.
“If possible, I’d like you to go to Beijing…I an, go to my house with today!”
“Today?” Bai Chen frowned. He did not think it would be this sudden. He lowered his head and went deep in thought for quite so ti.
Xu Xue Ning waited for his answer agitatedly. She was afraid Bai Chen would refuse.
A mont later, Bai Chen finally decided and looked up. “Okay.”
The reason why he was okay with it was the sa reason why he’d agreed to pretend to be her boyfriend.
His plan was, after pretending to be Xu Xue Ning’s boyfriend in Beijing, he would sneak into the Wang family ho just in case he coincidentally found Wang Chengye. If so, he would find a way to kill him right away!
If he could do it, the rage in his heart would ease sowhat!
In case he could kill Wang Chengye, what would be left was the Wang family, one of the five big families in Beijing. However, destroying an influential family like that was not easy.
This was because they had been established in Beijing for a long ti. Thus, it was extrely difficult to overthrow them.
But Bai Chen had been holding on to this rage and hatred all the way from the future. He would certainly not back off!
If he did not succeed in killing Wang Chengye this ti, he only had to find another chance to do it. He did not stand to lose anything.
And that next chance would likely be when Wang Chengye ca to Xing Zhou city several months after this.
“Thank you very much!” Xu Xue Ning quickly thanked Bai Chen again. Her still face was replaced with a smile of happiness.
But again, it was a sha that Bai Chen did not have a chance to see her beautiful and incomparable smile.
“If so, we’ll see each other again here in the departnt store in two hours. I have to pack my stuff first.” Bai Chen said while waving at Xu Xue Ning.
Her words of thanks, spoken with her indescribably lodious tone of voice, satisfied him. He also felt thankful.
This was because if she had not asked him to pretend to be her boyfriend, he would not have thought about spying on the Wang family and finding another way to kill Wang Chengye like this.
“Let’s do that. But first, we have to eat.”
Xu Xue Ning was happy with the result. Her mood was especially light. Her tone was polite and lodious, yet filled with apparent delight.
“I think so, too.” Bai Chen smiled a little. He had not eaten anything either. He felt hungry.
Moreover, they had already ordered the food. It would be a waste not to wait for it and eat.
............................................
While Bai Chen and Xu Xu Ning were waiting for the food to be served, a black car from a high-end brand drove into Xing Zhou city.
It was an expensive Lamborghini. There were two people inside.
The driver was a young man with decent looks.
The one sat in the passenger seat. He was a middle-aged man with a fierce-looking face. He sat there with his arms crossed. His eyes looked ahead.
“Leader Zhao.” The young driver suddenly spoke. Of course, he was talking to the man in the passenger seat.
The middle-aged man called ‘Leader Zhao’ was none other than Zhao Suan, the head of the third unit of the Jing Cha Secret Organisation.
They had been sent to Xing Zhou city to investigate and find the killer of the Xi family’s mber, Xi Du.
“What is it?” Zhao Suan turned to look at the young driver. “Zhuang Mo, your job is to drive us to the destination. There’s no need for you to speak.”
“That’s nonsense, Leader Zhao.” The young Zhuang Mo laughed. “How would I drive us there? You haven’t even told where to go yet!”
From how they talked to each other, it was obvious that they did not actually get along, even though Zhao Suan was the head of the third unit of the Jing Cha Secret Organisation.
However, Zhuang Mo was at the formation level, the sa as Zhao Suan. That was why he did not seem to have one bit of respect for Zhao Suan.
Moreover, Zhao Suan was an extrely narrow-minded person. He could see that Zhuang Mo had been born with an excellent gift, and he was very much jealous of him.
Eventually, Zhuang Mo had beco his enemy. He would use any ans possible to interfere with Zhuang Mo’s practice, so he would not be able to improve any further.
If Zhuang Mo was better than this, the leader position of the third unit would fall into his hands for certain.
Thus, it was impossible for Zhao Suan not to be jealous of and try to stop Zhuang Mo!
