562 Boss Red (1/2)
Later that night…
Ethan Lu and Lexi were in the car's back passenger seat. Turning to see his wife, Ethan Lu sighed. ”Love,”
”I want to know what will happen tonight.” Casting him a side glance, Lexi offered a meek smile.
Currently, the trade for the video scandal was occurring inside the private bar. Lexi and Ethan Lu didn't need to meet the person themselves as they have to be mindful of the situation. Therefore, the person who came for the exchange was none other than Jarred Guo.
”Will Red be okay?”
”Hmm…” Humming a tune, Ethan Lu nodded his head as he turned to the window. ”He's reliable in this type of transaction.” He muttered.
Since Lyrick Jiang's was always at his side, he couldn't send him in because his face was just as familiar as Ethan Lu. Jarred Guo, on the other hand, although he seemed to be merely a driver, away from the public eye, he had another important job; that was to represent his master to any shady and suspicious business.
”That's good…” Nodding her head, Lexi pursed her lips together. She doesn't know why, but part of her was bothered. Everything was going smoothly, and it was making her anxious.

Inside the private room of the booming establishment of the club, Jarred Guo could still faintly hear the music despite that the room was soundproof. He blankly stared at the person opposite him.
The other man had his face half-covered by the hood of his jacket. His shoulder slightly trembled as he glanced at Jarred Guo's calm visage.
”This is everything, right?” Jarred Guo asked as he slid the flash drive inside his pocket suit.
”Ye — yes!” The man replied, nodding his head profusely.
”The information?” Jarred Guo arched his brows and jerked his chin a little up.
”It's all in there — everything you asked is in there.” Despite his shaking voice, annoyance laced in his tone. ”Just — where is it?”
”...” Jarred Guo stared at the man's impatient figure as the said person looked around, searching for the money. ”You already know that this is a trap, no?” Jarred Guo asked as his brows creased.
Obviously, even though Jarred Guo didn't know the full detail of how this transaction was prepared, it was already given that the other party wouldn't leave this place as a free man.
