“You’re going to get it!”
Bai Chen turned to look at Xi Du for a second before turning back and continuing to go forward without a care.
He thought that there was a high possibility that Xi Du now saw him as a love rival.
It was obvious that he’d invited her out for dinner because he was pursuing her hand in a romantic manner.
It was only normal for Xi Du to dislike him and even threaten him. He did not want to care about it, because the threat was only to drive him away from Long Xu In.
However, if Xi Du wanted to give him trouble, Bai Chen would not hesitate to take him down.
He never had mercy on his enemies, otherwise, it would definitely result in issue after issue.
“You…” Xi Du gritted his teeth tightly. His rage-filled eyes followed Bai Chen who was walking towards Long Xu In. He had not expected that Bai Chen would dare to ignore him.
‘Good! You’ll get it for sure!’ Xi Du blurted out internally. His fists tightened until veins popped up.
At first, he thought he was going to threaten Bai Chen so he would stop pursuing Long Xu In. Now, that thought had changed. Bai Chen would face trouble all right!
That was what Bai Chen would get for ignoring his words!
Xi Du watched them walk into the lift. He watched until the lift doors closed. His tightened fists were trembling. Then, he walked away with his teeth gritted.
Ding.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe sound indicated that they had arrived on the fourth floor. Bai Chen walked out with Long Xu In.
As soon as he got out, Bai Chen looked straight ahead and then left and right.
In front of him were a wall and a high-quality wooden door. The left and the right side were walls. There were no further paths.
There was only one way to go straight through, which was the door in the front. Each side was a dead end.
“This place is…?”
Bai Chen could not help but speak out loud when he saw what was on the fourth floor. This last floor did not seem to contain anything other than space outside the lift.
It required approximately ten steps to reach the door on the left and the wall on each side.
“This is the fourth floor.” Long Xu In smiled. She led him towards the door in the front, which was only steps away. “Follow me. I’ll show you what it looks like.”
Bai Chen did not follow her immediately. He stood still for a while, trying to guess what was waiting for him.
There were a lounge, a restaurant, a coffee bar, and a reception counter on the first floor. The second floor was dedicated to electronic parts production. The third floor was offices. What would be on the fourth floor?
No matter what he tried to guess, he could not imagine what it would be. Thus, he eventually followed Long Xu In.
She opened the door. Bai Chen looked inside and was stunned. He did not expect the fourth floor to be an apartment.
There was furniture inside. He followed Long Xu In into the room and realized that it was actually an apartment.
It was beautifully furnished. The furniture was neatly arranged. There were four separate rooms.
It could be guessed that they would be a kitchen, a bathroom, and bedrooms for sure.
There was a person inside. He was Long Shen, Long Xu In’s older brother. He was sipping his coffee on the sofa in the middle of the spacious room.
“You have finally arrived?” Long Shen asked with a smile.
Long Xu In looked at Long Shen. “What are you doing here, brother? I thought you said you were going back to grandfather at the vacation house in the afternoon.”
“Nahh… Just forget about it.” Long Shen laughed softly. He did not exactly answer his sister’s question. He then looked at Bai Chen. “Sit here, brother-in-law.”
After hearing what he said, Long Xu In’s face reddened. She agitatedly turned to Bai Chen. She was afraid that Bai Chen would misunderstand and think that she had not explained anything to her brother yet.
The truth was, she had told him that she would explain everything to her brother, but he did not seem to understand a thing until now. That was why she was agitated.
But it was useless to explain it anyway since Long Xu In was the one who had told both Long Shen and Long Wu Lei that Bai Chen was her boyfriend.
It was obvious that Bai Chen was not her boyfriend. At that time, she had just blurted it out just in case she could make him her boyfriend in the future.
Bai Chen made eye contact with Long Xu In for a second. He saw her agitated and reddened face. He finally understood that she had probably had not explained anything to her brother.
However, he was sure that she would explain after this, so he chose not to care about it.
‘Brother-in-law.’ He could call him anything he wanted because it did not cause any trouble for him.
Bai Chen smiled at Long Xu In to ease her mind before accepting Long Shen’s invitation and sitting down on the sofa.
Long Xu In’s eyes trembled. Her heart immediately pounded hard. She blinked several times and breathed nervously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘What does this mean?’ she wondered while her heart was still fluttering. He did not fret at all that her brother had called him ‘brother-in-law’. Didn’t that mean he had already accepted this role?
‘It may be possible. Maybe he’s finally fallen for me!’ Long Xu In thought. She felt very happy. She beamed her beautiful smile and sat down beside Bai Chen.
..............................................
At the same time that Bai Chen and Long Xu In were sitting on a sofa, Xi Du was also on a sofa in the lounge. He was sitting there with a sullen face.
He was in a very bad mood. He tapped his fingers on the sofa, while his other hand was holding his iPhone.
His eyes were fixed on the phone screen.
“Why’s it not here yet!?” he murmured quietly with disapproval.
The phone screen displayed the latest outgoing call. It had been made five minutes ago. It was obvious that he’d called someone to come see him.
“Wang Hai is here, young master.”
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind Xi Du. He was a well-built middle-aged man with a stern face. He wore a black suit.
“Finally, you’re here, Wang Hai. You kept me waiting for a long time.” Xi Du did not turn back to look at him. He just waved.
Wang Hai understood the signal. He walked towards the opposite sofa and sat down.
“I’ve already arranged everything you need, young master. Five of our people will come to guard you shortly.”
Wang Hai started to report this after he sat down. It was what Xi Du had instructed him to do five minutes earlier.
“Very good!” Xi Du nodded. His sullen expression changed into an evil, cruel one. “Just wait for it and see what will become of that trash who dares to get involved with my future woman Long Xu In. Hahahahaha!”
