Chapter 1576: One Lie After Another (47)
Mu Xiaoxiao thought about it. She was unsure if he was a good person, so she had to be careful.
She said, “Wait, let me make a call.”
She then walked away and gave Jun Zeye a call.
“Ah Ze, you said that you arranged for someone to protect me, right? Is the person reliable? Will he be able to protect me no matter where I go?” she asked bluntly.
Jun Zeye seemed to pick up on something and asked, “Where are you going?”
“I…” Mu Xiaoxiao stalled, but thought it better to tell him. “I want to make Yin Shaojie angry and get him to find me, so… I thought of a good idea.”
“What good idea?” Jun Zeye seemed to be able to tell that it wasn’t a good idea.
“I… I want to… find a male escort” Mu Xiaoxiao’s voice got softer and softer as she spoke and she regretted her words as soon as she finished speaking.
There was silence on the other side of the phone.
Mu Xiaoxiao said hurriedly, “I was joking! I don’t know anything about that, and besides, those places only open at night. They’re impossible to find in bright daylight right now, right?”
Jun Zeye asked, “Where are you now?”
“I… I’m outside a HeDiLao. I’ve just eaten and I feel much better.” She tried to change the topic.
Just then, the handsome boy got into the car and started the engine. He lowered the window and shouted to her, “Get in.”
Jun Zeye heard it and his voice took a more serious tone. “Who are you with?”
“N-No one. That was a stranger.” Mu Xiaoxiao stuck her tongue out. She wasn’t lying this time. She didn’t actually know the handsome boy, not even his name.
If Jun Zeye knew that she had just gotten acquainted with a guy and that he was a prost.i.tute, he would prevent her from going anywhere with him.
“Do you think I won’t find out if you don’t tell me?” Jun Zeye reminded her.
Mu Xiaoxiao paused. She remembered that he had arranged for someone to protect her and she wouldn’t be able to hide anything she did from him.
She stalled for a while. She could only tell him the truth.
“I… met a male escort at HeDiLao earlier…”
“Don’t tell me you’re going to his brothel?” Jun Zeye’s tone was slightly cold.
“Uh… Yeah, kinda…”
Oh no, he seemed to be angry.
Mu Xiaoxiao regretted telling him the truth a little now.
“Xiaoxiao, stop this nonsense! How can you go to such a place?” Jun Zeye frowned deeply.
“It’s okay. Their brothel hasn’t opened for business yet. I’m only going to take a look and use the opportunity to anger Yin Shaojie and lure him out. Aren’t the people you and him hired to protect me around? Nothing will happen.” Mu Xiaoxiao said.
Seeing that the handsome boy was waving to her, she gritted her teeth and got into the car.
“Alright, I’ll be going off now. Just relax, I’ll handle myself.”
“Xiaoxiao——”
She hung up before he could finish her sentence.
Mu Xiaoxiao was worried that Jun Zeye would call and turned off her phone.
“What’s the matter? Did your boyfriend call?” the handsome boy asked, looking at her.
Mu Xiaoxiao stared at his face. He had good facial features and looked like a good guy. He wouldn’t try to hurt her, right?
She did not answer his question, but asked instead, “Well, why did you reserve a booth to eat hotpot alone?”
After all, so many unlucky things had happened to her recently, and she needed to be careful.
