Chapter 268 - FAMILIAR FACES (2/2)

In the end, Zhong Feng could do nothing but go on to handle company issues.

Hu Lei walked to Bo Qian and Beatrice, the most unexpected pair in the party of global giants.

”I am so glad to see familiar faces.” She sighed with feeling.

Bo Qian smiled with enthusiasm as he saw his fortune goddess. On the other hand, Beatrice blushed a little because she had not told Hu Lei that she was coming to the party.

”Little Ninja Fortune Cat, I love the new book. We are going to adapt the book into a movie, a comic and maybe commission a theme song.” His eyes twinkled like bright stars.

Hu Lei's lips twitched, and she decided to ignore him.

”Beatrice!”

”Yes, ma'am.”

The young woman felt guiltier by the second as if she had been called out by the school principal. Technically, she had done nothing wrong. She had been diligent in her work, even when Hu Lei was away. Otherwise, Little Ninja Cat fans would have rioted.

But she had hidden a personal secret from Hu Lei. After spending almost every day together with Hu Lei before she left the city, they had become friends. So, Beatrice felt like she had sinned by hiding away a crucial matter.

”Did you get tricked by this man?” Hu Lei asked with suspicion.

She did not need to be a genius to figure out the unspoken thing between the two people.

Bo Qian felt wronged. He was an honest and upright man. ”What do you mean? I am an honest man.”

Beatrice blushed. She could not say if she had been tricked or not, or if she was the one who had tricked. The thing was, after spending so much time liaising with Bo Qian on Little Ninja Cat issues, they had formed a connection.

Somehow, they had ended up in a relationship.

”We will know if you are honest once you meet her family.” Hu Lei levelled a gaze at the man.

The Jiang family was a military dynasty with hardboiled soldiers. She did not know if Bo Qian could survive a single meeting after stealing their princess.

Bo Qian looked a little sick after the statement.

”Don't scare him.” Beatrice patted Bo Qian on the back.

”A married daughter is truly like spilt water.” Hu Lei sighed.

She was a little worried about Beatrice because she knew that her editor had held some feelings towards Carefree Dreams, also known as Song Yin. If he was not over her, Beatrice could get hurt.

Unfortunately, she could not predict what would happen. She could only hope that there would be no heartbreak.
