Chapter 199 - Marrying A Rich Lady (32) (2/2)

He turned his head and looked at Miss Ruan. “Miss Ruan actually dared to come?”

Ming Shu smiled before she replied, “If you dare to invite me, I will dare to come.”

Qin Che’s voice was a bit hoarse. He stared at Ming Shu closely. “Ruan Li, leave this place. This has nothing to do with you.”

Ming Shu shook her head and grinned. “That’s not possible. The other party personally sent me an invitation. How can I disappoint them? Am I correct, Boss Shen?”

She looked at He Shuguo, but called him Boss Shen instead.

He Shuguo felt terror in his heart and instinctively looked somewhere.

Qin Che seemed to know everything already and didn’t look surprised at all. He just stared at Ming Shu, worried that she would be in danger.

A lean figure walked out from the shadows and said in a tone that was either mocking or filled with disdain, “Miss Ruan is definitely smarter than others.”

Ming Shu placed the tip of the umbrella on the ground and gently spun it twice. Water splashed everywhere. “Thanks for your compliment, even though you were not very amazing.”

“I’m curious. How did you find out?”

Shen Yuanzhao stood against the light. His face was in the shadows and his expression couldn’t be seen.

Ming Shu continued spinning the umbrella. “Boss Shen, do you think that my status as the heir of the Ruan family is just a joke?”

Although the Ruan family was not based here, it was not difficult for them to get some information.

What’s more, she was always keeping an eye on He Shuguo and Shen Yuanzhao. Did they really think that she stopped doing anything when she said she quit?

She knew exactly what the two of them did.

“I forgot.” Shen Yuanzhao paused. “Did Miss Ruan come alone? Should I call you courageous or should I call you stupid?”

“Because…” Ming Shu dragged her words out. Her smile got even brighter. “There are some secrets that can’t be found out by anyone.”

Shen Yuanzhao could see the expression on her face clearly.

She seemed to only know how to smile.

There was no anger, no worry, no suspicion, no vigilance…

She was like an inexperienced child—harmless.

However, Shen Yuanzhao was not so relaxed. If this girl was as harmless as she looked, he would not have fallen victim to her so many times.

Shen Yuanzhao raised his hand.

Several men in black came out of the shadows and pointed their guns at Ming Shu.

The umbrella was still spinning.

Around and around…

Ming Shu smiled slightly. “Seems like Boss Shen is the one that wants my life.”

Shen Yuanzhao frowned and glanced sideways at He Shuguo. “Mister He, it’s up to you now.”

He Shuguo was thinking about something. He only turned his head when Shen Yuanzhao called him a second time. He said with a cold expression, “Qin Che, if you don’t agree, I will have to ask Miss Ruan to wait for you downstairs.”

Shen Yuanzhao wanted Ming Shu’s life. This was his condition for working together.

Even if Qin Che agreed to He Shuguo’s request, Ming Shu would not meet with a good ending.

He Shuguo understood this, but he was caught in a dilemma. If the girl couldn’t be saved…

It wouldn’t be his fault.

Qin Che mouth formed a sneer and looked at the girl spinning her umbrella calmly within the crowd. He asked seriously, “Who are you here for?”

For him?

Or is…

The umbrella stopped spinning and a slim hand grabbed its handle.

The girl slowly smiled. “Of course it’s for me.”

…

Things happened so fast that He Shuguo and Shen Yuanzhao didn’t have any time to react.

The minute Ming Shu finished her sentence, she attacked. The tip of the umbrella suddenly became sharp and it accurately pierced into the shoulder of the nearest target.

Boom—

A gunshot.

It echoed through the empty building.

Qin Che’s view was filled with blood. Before he could react to that answer, Ming Shu’s body had already fallen slowly down.
