Chapter 585: Head-to-Head

This was not Su Li’s first time. But it had been too long, and she had not expected Xiao Luo to make his move. After she changed into the uniform that Li Zimeng had handed her, she found some discomfort when she tried to walk. Seeing her plight, Xiao Luo went over to help, but Su Li pushed him away. She did not want anyone other than Li Zimeng to know what had happened between them in that conference room.

She lifted her hand to brush away some loose hair. The gesture was just a simple movement, but it made her look incomparably beautiful and gentle.

“Let us go through with the collaboration according to the terms we discussed earlier. I will have someone discuss the specifics with you and draw up a contract based on that,” Su Li said to Xiao Luo before she stepped into the car.

Xiao Luo almost burst out laughing. He thought, how could this woman have such an adorable side to her?

In a steady tone of voice, he said, “Sure.”

He knew that Su Li did not want anyone to catch on to what had transpired moments ago.

“Ahem, hem…”

Li Zimeng suddenly choked and started coughing violently. When she noticed that Xiao Luo and Su Li were looking at her, she hurriedly waved her hand in apology. “I’m sorry, I…”

She could have spent the next few hours explaining, but there was no real reason for her coughing fit. Instead, she settled the matter with an awkward smile. What could she say? That she was impressed by the show they were putting on?

…

…

“Did you guys come to an agreement?” Zhang Dashan asked Xiao Luo after Su Li and Shen Qingyan had left.

Xiao Luo nodded and said, “Sumir will be a brand under Luo Worksop in the future.”

“D*mn, Old Xiao, you really went all out, huh?”

Zhang Dashan smacked his chest, reacting in surprise. “Come on, out with it! How did you get your wife to come on board? Not by getting her off, I hope?” he said.

Of course, Zhang Dashan was joking. Although it did cross his mind that they might have done it in broad daylight after he caught them in a compromising position in the conference room. However, it remained speculation, and he did not believe that Xiao Luo would put Su Li in her place in such a manner. As he would always say, this was not how his buddy would do things.

Li Zimeng, who was not too far ahead from them, almost tripped over herself.

Xiao Luo looked awkwardly at Zhang Dashan and responded in a harsh voice, “You want to get your *ss kicked again?”

Zhang Dashan retreated back a few steps and covered his large bottom with his palms. He could picture Xiao Luo sending him flying through the air with a kick, and he said, “God d*mn you, Xiao Luo. You kick my *ss again like that, and we won’t be friends anymore!”

Xiao Luo could not be bothered with him. He just wanted to return home. Suddenly, his phone rang—it was Ji Siying.

“Siying!”

“Mr. Xiao Luo, Bureau Chief Gu is looking for you,” Ji Siying said. Her gentle voice came over the phone clearly.

Xiao Luo furrowed his brows and asked, “What’s wrong?”

It seemed like there was another mission. Xiao Luo would have to put off his plan to bridge matters between Su Li and him yet again.

“Drug Lady is in trouble,” Ji Siying said, somewhat hesitantly.

Fu Yiren was in trouble?

Why was she in trouble? Didn’t she just head to Japan to warn the Asou Clan not to stir trouble in Hua Nation?

Xiao Luo did not care much about this woman. But she was a fellow NSA agent, and he did not wish her to come to any harm.
