Chapter 524 - Setting off (1/2)
After the assistant named Fang Zhi left, it was as though nothing had happened between the two parties. Even if they did encounter each other later on, there was a tacit understanding to not mention the matter anymore.
To be honest, Li Ran had a drink too many last night, so she wasn’t too sure about what happened either. She could vaguely recall that something had happened, but everyone only told her that she had been knocked unconscious by the other party.
This made Li Ran a little unhappy. She had taken the initiative to go to the other party’s room, but he ended up knocking her unconscious? Was it because she lacked charm?
Meanwhile, Ren Xiaosu was no longer thinking about this matter. He was thinking about how he could help Zhou Yingxue complete this supposed concert tour mission.
Apart from this escort mission, Zhou Yingxue would have to complete another two missions before next spring in order to qualify for the Anjing House trials.
“Master, this escort mission will probably last until the end of the year. We already missed an A-rank mission while we were waiting for her arrival,” Zhou Yingxue complained. “With time so tight, what if there aren’t enough missions for us to do?”
Ren Xiaosu said helplessly, “Don’t worry, I’ll think of something.”
The mistake of accepting this mission was indeed his fault.
Three days later, Assistant Fang Zhi suddenly came to inform them that the team was preparing to set off. Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue did not have any objections to that. They were just hoping that this group’s concert tour would progress as quickly as possible so they would not get delayed any further.
The concert tour group even arranged a special car for Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue. They had wanted to get a chauffeur for them too, but Zhou Yingxue rejected the offer.
She brought out a professional-looking, small black box that she used to examine the car carefully. Only upon confirming there was no surveillance equipment or GPS trackers on board did she feel at ease.
After all, she often discussed secrets with Ren Xiaosu, so it wouldn’t be too good if someone were to overhear them.
Before getting in the car, Ren Xiaosu and Li Ran bumped into each other again. Ren Xiaosu realized Li Ran deliberately walked past without looking at him. It was as if she had never met him before.
This felt like a silent declaration of war: “I’m not fucking interested in you. I went to your room that night purely because I was bestowing a favor upon you! To put it crudely, I was just patronizing you!”
Although neither of them said a word, Ren Xiaosu instantly understood what the other party meant.
The other staff were looking at Ren Xiaosu curiously. Many of them knew that Li Ran had drunk too much that night before going to look for Ren Xiaosu. Therefore, everyone’s eyes were on Ren Xiaosu, and some of them even wanted to ask him if anything had happened.
In short, Ren Xiaosu had suddenly become the focus of attention in the concert tour group because of this stupid matter.
After Zhou Yingxue got into the car, she leaned against the steering wheel and cackled for more than 10 minutes. It was only when Ren Xiaosu’s face had turned thunderous that she got a hold of herself.
She changed the topic and said, “Ahem, why would this concert tour group need to have over twenty vehicles in their entourage? They even have a semi-truck at the back of the group!”
“That’s carrying their speakers and musical instruments. I already looked at it,” Ren Xiaosu answered normally.
Zhou Yingxue was stunned. She did not even know when Ren Xiaosu had searched the entire concert tour group.
