He sighed. âStop causing a ruckus! Your artiste has already returned to the company. You shouldnât be here any longer; donât you have work tomorrow?â
Li Dongliang wanted that actress. His superior already had an agreement with the man; how could he let this assistant take her away?
Moreover, that investor was not someone this assistant could afford to offend, either.
âReally?â Mu Xi looked at him askance. âDid she really go back to the company?â
He maintained his expression and nodded. âThatâs right! If not, where would she be? She just left!â
She was still suspicious; thus, he pulled her along to the carpark to avoid further complications. He said, âCome on; Iâll send you home since itâs on the way!â
She let him pull her along dumbly, but she still looked back at the hotel entrance a couple of times as they walked further away. She had an ominous premonition.
When they were on the road in the car, it finally hit her that things could not be that simple. Immediately, she shouted to be let out of the car.
He was not about to let that happen.
She started making a din in the car. âSecretary Li, let me out right now! Iâm warning you, Shishiâs status isnât simple. Donât think that sheâs just an ordinary celebrity!â
âWhat? Are you threatening me right now?â He squinted his eyes at her, his gaze dangerous and pressuring.
She snorted and puffed up her chest. âWhat if I tell you that sheâs Chairman Muâs woman?!â
The car came to a screeching halt.
His eyes bulged. âWhat did you say?!â
âShishi is the big bossâs woman. If sheâs hurt in any way... He he! You shouldâve heard of his tactics before. Please donât say I didnât warn you if it ever comes down to that!â said Mu Xi as she refused to back down.
He could not really believe her words. âIf sheâs really Master Muâs woman, why is she in showbiz?!â
She kept quiet.
âBeing his woman means that she can indulge in a plethora of wealth and glory. Where did you hear such news? Itâs laughable!â
She snorted at his ignorance. She cared not for his thought and just clambered out of the car in a hurry.
She said viciously as she slammed the door shut. âLi Quan, if she suffers from even the slightest mishap, you are finished!â
With that, she turned and ran in the direction of the hotel.
The man sat in the driverâs seat blankly for a long time, unable to regain his senses!
At this time, Yun Shishi was seated uneasily in Li Dongliangâs sedan.
He was sitting in the backseat.
Originally, she wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but he said that this was against the rules.
Left with no choice, she could only fearfully sit in the backseat with him as she tried to maintain a distance from him.
She told the driver the companyâs address and sat close to the door. Soon, she realized that the road outside the car did not look right, so she turned to remind the driver, âMister, this isnât the way back to the company! You shouldâve taken the other road earlier!â
The driver only smiled, not saying a word.
Li Dongliang teased, âDonât worry. He knows what he is doing. Is Miss Yun afraid that we will sell you away?â
She shook her head, lowering it and not saying another word while she fiddled with her fingers.
The atmosphere in the car was making her extremely uncomfortable. She hoped so badly that he would just leave her at the roadside and let her take a cab back home alone.
As the car speedily passed many sceneries along the highway, she began to feel that something was really off.
Huanyu Tower was at a buzzling district at the heart of the capital, yet this car was heading to the outskirts. Instead, the road it was on seemed to be leading toward another district.
