Chapter 277 - Use Herself as Bait

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Yi Tian felt a little dizzy under the intense stare of Ruan Zeyan. She forced herself to remain calm, but when her gaze met those chilling-to-the-bone eyes of his, the scare made her automatically lower her head.

Yi Tian pretended to look concerned and said a sincere voice, “I did see a figure similar to Miss Ling’s walking through the lounge, but I told Mr. Gu that I was not sure that it was actually Miss Ling.”

Gu Zhiqian frowned and looked at Ruan Zeyan, nodded slightly.

It was true that when he asked Yi Tian whether she was certain her answer was no.

The glacial look of Ruan Zeyan lingered on Yi Tian for a moment until he finally moved on to look other places.

Sensing that the death stare had moved away from her, Yi Yan finally dared to breathe unrestrictedly again, but her heart was still unable to slow down. Fortunately, what she said to Gu Zhiqian at the time was ambiguous enough.

Ruan Zeyan looked around the room and asked. “Where is Zhang Ke?”

There was such a big incident and Zhang Ke was nowhere to be seen. Where was she if not with Ling Tianya.

“Oh, I saw her in Miss Ling’s lounge just now.” Du Gang replied.

Just then, when Du Gang and his men did their sweep around the studio, he saw Zhang Ke in Ling Tianya’s lounge. When he realized that Ling Tianya was not there, he simply asked a few questions and then took his men to search other places.

Du Gang’s response was met with Ruan Zeyan’s death stare. Suddenly Du Gang’s face froze, and he realized that he had made a big mistake.

Zhang Ke was Miss Ling’s assistant and almost everyone in the crew was there and she was the only one still in the lounge.

Obviously, it was abnormal.

When Du Gang realized his mistake, Ruan Zeyan had already walked toward Ling Tianya’s lounge like a whirlwind.

Du Gang loosened his shirt collar and followed up with his men.

In the lounge, Zhang Ke stared at a watch as she counted down time. There was a deep look of anxiety on her face.

There was still one minute left until the time specified by Ling Tianya. She knew that Ruan Zeyan was already blowing up outside trying to find Ling Tianya, but she promised her mentor to hold off until the time they had agreed upon.

Zhang Ke watched the time tick down. “Five, four, three, two, one! Time’s up!”

Suddenly, the lounge door was kicked open. Then, Ruan Zeyan and his men busted in intimidatingly. “What do you mean time is up?”

Ruan Zeyan’s voice sounded like it was from hell, shocking Zhang Ke to drop what was in her hand.

When she was trying to pick it up, Du Gang beat her to it and found it was a laptop with headphones plugged in. Du Gang brought the laptop over to Ruan Zeyan, and on the screen there was a blinking dot.

Ruan Zeyan sneered dangerously. “What is this?”

Realizing that the whole thing was exposed, Zhang Ke didn’t plan to continue hiding. In fact, she was very worried about the safety of Ling Tianya too.

“Miss Ling is right where this dot is. She instructed me to not do anything when the dot was moving. She said only when the dot had stopped at one spot for more than ten minutes could I go tell you, Mr. Ruan...”

In Ling Tianya’s own words, if Ruan Zeyan found out ahead of time, he would never agree to let her use herself as bait.

Zhang Ke’s voice was getting quieter and quieter, like a child who had done something wrong

Ruan Zeyan put the headphones on and heard the conversation between Ling Tianya and a man.

“You don’t look surprised at all to see me.”

“No, not too surprised.”

“God damn it!” Ruan Zeyan’s eyes became even colder, accompanied by an unprecedented rage. Ling Tianya was such a stupid woman! How could she put her own life in such danger?!

Ruan Zeyan put the laptop back into Du Gang’s hand. “Get your people, go to this place immediately!”
