Chapter 143 - Who was it? (1/2)
The moment Ghost finished telling the story, Phantom gaped at him. He flung a pillow at that man as he said,
"What the heck! You never tell me that you know President Du personally."
Ghost shrugged, "It's not like I know him PERSONALLY. It was just a chance encounter."
Phantom tapped his lips softly while he thought about something. After a while, he asked, "Would he have recognized you?"
Ghost leaned back against the couch, "I doubt it. I was a kid then."
"If it was when your hand was bandaged, you were probably 14 or 15. By then, your hair have already turned grey. I'm sure it would be hard to forget about a kid with grey hair."
Ghost thought about it before replying Phantom, "Maybe he might. But it doesn't matter. He doesn't know that he's part of my plan."
"He's not an idiot. Be careful."

The next morning, when DX woke up, he rinsed his mouth again.
When he saw Old Mo at the bottom of the stairs, he jogged towards him and asked nervously, "Smell my breath, Old Mo."
Old Mo looked at him in confusion but after a second, he took a sniff and smiled, "Minty fresh, sir."
DX felt better when he heard that, "Great."
After Old Mo left, a chuckle can be heard from above the stairs, "Did you cheat on your lover or something?"
DX turned and glared at Callum.
When he saw the angry gaze, Callum laughed, "Oh my god! President Du lost control of himself?"
"Shut up!" snapped DX. Turging away from Callum, he sighed, "She forced herself on me! Tell me how to break this to Kara without hurting her!"
"Well, for one thing, don't tell her."
"I can't lie to her."
"No one tells you to lie. Just don't mention anything about it. Be casual."
DX glanced at him and said as a matter of fact, "That's stupid."
Callum tapped the side of his head before he explained,
"Think about it. When I slept with your ex-girlfriends, you only know about it because they were acting suspicious. So...just chill and bury it...also, get rid of that cologne!"
He had been worried the whole night wondering what Kai Xin would do to him if she smelled another girl on him.
