Huo Yunting poured the wine into his own gla.s.s instead. “Then I’ll drink it myself, you two drink juice.”
“Mr. President, while on the way here, we have agreed that Lu Bai will not make a deal with Xiang Yuan Corp. If necessary, he can cooperate with us anytime.” Lu Zhaoyang reported. It did not matter if Mason will work with Thunderbolt Corp. The more crucial thing was to contain Xiang Yuan Corp as Thunderbolt Corp did not lack funds.
“I got it.”
Huo Yunting suddenly glanced at Lu Bai halfway through dinner. “Are you alone with no one protecting you?” Lu Bai’s safety was his biggest concern now as there was no guarantee that Xiang Jinxi would not go overly aggressive.
“Someone was with me. He has left.” It was only the luggage guy. Lu Bai did not expect that his casual answer had a severe consequence.
After dinner, Lu Bai walked out of the private dining room and saw a woman with a lollipop in her mouth standing outside. He saw his own reflection in her beauty, which was familiar to him. Lu Bai subconsciously clenched his fists and exposed how nervous he was.
“Do not come over!” Lu Bai snapped.
Noticing his nervousness, Yan Se broke out in an enchanting smile and deeply looked at him ambivalently. “Bai, we have not seen each other for so long yet you still treat me like his?”
“I don’t need a bodyguard!” Lu Bai could protect himself. Even Yan Se had experienced how excellent his skills were; ordinary opponents would not be his match.
“Oh… then, do you need a girlfriend?” Yan Se almost broke out in laughter, seeing his tense expression. Did she look that horrible in his eyes? She did not think so. Locking arms with him suddenly, Yan Se said, “It is getting late. Let’s go.”
What the h.e.l.l was going on? Lu Bai was struck dumb. Looking at Yan Se, who broke out in a bright smile, he also saw melted candy flowing down the corner of her mouth.
“My boss is worried about your safety and sent me to protect you.” Yan Se brought him to walk in front that gave a private moment for the couples at the back.
“Bai, I really missed you!”
But Lu Bai did not share the same feelings.
Lu Zhaoyang and Huo Yunting were walking side by side astounded by looking at Lu Bai’s helplessness. Yan Se had excellent skills but Lu Zhaoyang was worried that Yan Se would eat Bai as a snack.
The four got out of the restaurant together. Huo Yunting volunteered to send Lu Zhaoyang home but was bluntly declined.
“I have already booked a ride. I will leave now.” Lu Zhaoyang nodded and got into the taxi waiting for her. She then closed the door with no hesitation and then the cab drove away.
“What the heck am I doing here?” Huo Yunting chuckled as he took out his cigarettes and lighter. He got into his car. He was not in a hurry since she was back.
On the other hand, Lu Bai got his knickers in a twist when Yan Se dragged him into the car. He stared daggers at the woman behind the wheel. “Uncuff me now!”
“Bear with it. I am just preventing you from slipping accidentally.” She glanced at Lu Bai with one hand on the steering wheel.
“Are you not afraid that I will go to Xiang Yuan Corp instead?” He impatiently pulled the handcuff. The sunny side of him had gone to the dogs in front of this woman.
Lu Bai used to learn how to hack handcuffs during his time in the organization. But this woman had taken away everything he could use to unlock the cuff. She was more a s.a.d.i.s.t than his bodyguard.
