Chapter 176

Peng Ran stood behind Su Mingyan and happened to catch a glimpse of that line of medium-sized text; his pupils instantly shrank, unable to believe what he was seeing.

Mr. Huo and Miss Su?

Had his boss been "cuckolded"?

Peng Ran instinctively glanced at his boss's expression, silently shifted his gaze away, not daring to look again, and stared blankly at the folder on the desk, playing dead.

Su Mingyan stared silently at the line of text, as if self-torturing, reading it over and over again.

For a long time, the large office remained deathly silent.

Su Mingyan threw the A4-sized paper onto the desk, pushed his chair back, and paced unhurriedly toward the floor-to-ceiling window, hiding his emotions; the feeling was not easy to bear.

He looked down at the brilliant lights of the surrounding skyscrapers, his left hand resting on his waist, his right hand holding his phone to his ear, and dialed a call to Chen Xiangjin in Hong Kong.

Chen Xiangjin answered quickly. After learning his cousin's intent, he took his computer from the coffee table and, ignoring his friend's questions, opened it directly.

The cold light from the computer screen spilled eerily onto his face; his long, fair fingers tapped rapidly on the keyboard, the clicking sound exceptionally clear in the silence.

Huo Jingcheng's name was not unfamiliar to him; he was the man who had called himself "cousin-in-law" in front of Chen Xiangwei.

What Su Mingyan asked him to check was the mobile phone locations of Huo Jingcheng and Su Ruoyun.

The result was not at all surprising: they were in the same place.

Chen Xiangjin informed Su Mingyan of the news, and there was dead silence on the other end of the line. He cleared his throat: "Cousin, are you still there?"

"Still here." Su Mingyan bent his long fingers to pinch the bridge of his nose, closed his eyes, his brow furrowed with lingering gloom: "According to the location, is it back to her apartment?"

Chen Xiangjin replied "Yes," then skillfully slid out of the call, preparing to "tip off" Su Ruoyun; the favor of his cousin taking him to the bar last time had yet to be repaid.

Who knew that the next second, a ghostly male voice drifted out from the receiver: "A-Jin."

The Kawasaki Ninja H2 pulled into the residential complex at ten o'clock at night.

Su Ruoyun was immersed in the freedom of the wind and the thrill of the adrenaline rush, unable to extricate herself, and steered the motorcycle to a stop under Building Seven.

She was wearing a helmet, her field of vision limited, and for a moment, she didn't notice that a Maybach was also parked nearby.

Su Ruoyun excitedly took off her helmet, hung it on the handlebar, and turned around, wanting to share the joy of the ride with Huo Jingcheng.

In less than two seconds, the headlights of the car opposite them suddenly lit up, the laser beams aimed directly at them, the blinding light instantly filling her vision.

Su Ruoyun frowned, just about to get off the bike and argue with the other party, when her gaze inadvertently caught the license plate of the Maybach. She felt the world go dark, and only two words remained in her mind: It's over!

Her legs and hands went weak for a moment, and she couldn't hold the motorcycle up. Fortunately, Huo Jingcheng was quick-witted; he embraced her from behind, his long legs firmly supporting them, and his large hands gripped the handlebars tight.

Afterward, his gaze followed the direction of Su Ruoyun's line of sight.

The Maybach's headlights opposite were as bright as day. A figure in a black suit stepped out of the car, approaching step by step against the light. The usual faint smile had completely faded, his brows and eyes revealing sharpness and dominance, his edge fully exposed.

Su Mingyan was never a gentle person to begin with; at this moment, his full-blown irritation was like a surging undercurrent, churning wantonly throughout his entire body.

His voice, cold to the extreme, carried a hint of nonchalance, his words dissipating into the night wind.

"Riding a motorcycle, how dashing."

?? Qixi Special Broadcast: Actually, at the beginning, the title of this book was set as "Rare to Have a Lover," which is the song from Chapter 175. The setting of the book is Beijing Circle Crown Prince vs. Beijing Circle Crown Princess, so in a situation where upper-class marriages are common, the circle is full of interest-based unions; it is rare to have a lover.

? Later, because this title already existed in the library, it was changed to "Kiss Her in the Beijing Night."
