Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 What Exactly is the Trick Played?

After Xing Chen left, Xiangsi Ran glared angrily at the latte in front of her.

Ordering it but not drinking it, such a waste...

Xiangsi Ran glanced at the espresso on one side, then turned back to the latte.

Just now she was persuading Xing Chen to drink something sweeter. Why always torture yourself with such bitter stuff?

Why not, she thought, she could also try it, sweet latte?

Thinking of this, Xiangsi Ran leaned over, first cautiously smelled the aroma, then opened her mouth and took a small sip.

Sweet.

The taste was sweet and milky, much better than espresso!!

But Xiangsi Ran only took that one sip, not intending to continue drinking.

Too sweet things easily make people lose their minds, indulge in the beautiful and charming.

However, to vent her anger, she bit the edge of the cup as she stood up...

This damn Xing Chen, what kind of game is he playing?!

Just as Xiangsi Ran raised her head and sat down, her phone dinged.

She picked it up to check and saw that it was a call notification from the eavesdropping program installed on Li Guoliang's phone.

She answered and put it to her ear, staying silent, while leisurely stirring the coffee in her cup, frowning and listening carefully.

This eavesdropping program would monitor all of Li Guoliang's external calls and then send them in real-time to a designated phone app of Xiangsi Ran.

Installing this was Xiangsi Ran's precaution to avoid having her actions discovered by Li Guoliang, just in case, at least she could run away in advance.

Unexpectedly, it ended up letting her hear some other things instead.

"Old Officer, I just found out, it turns out Young Master Xing is already secretly married. I just saw his wife a moment ago, they seemed very affectionate. So, the matter of arranging a meeting between the Miss and Young Master Xing can just..."

This was Li Guoliang's voice.

Soon after, another slightly older person spoke, "Secretly married? Haven't heard any joyous news from the Wilson family in recent years. Aliang, find a few people to follow Xing Chen, preferably take some photos."

"Yes, Officer. What about the Miss?"

"We'll talk about it later."

After a few simple sentences, the call was hung up.

Xiangsi Ran put down her phone, the motion of stirring her coffee had already frozen.

Someone wanted to introduce a girlfriend to Xing Chen?

So... is that why Xing Chen insisted on telling her that she was his wife, to avoid this?

Before Xiangsi Ran could continue thinking it through, suddenly someone appeared in front of her.

White shirt, black suit, black tie, crew cut, good physique, about 1.75 meters tall, delicate features, with a smile on his face.

The person handed over a business card proactively, "Hello, my name is Ping Le. Peaceful 'Ping', joyful 'Le'. I am Young Master Xing's assistant, responsible for handling the aftermath of this matter."

Xiangsi Ran took the business card with a suspicious look and as she looked at Ping Le again, her eyes were already full of vigilance.

He is Xing Chen's person.

"Aftermath? What aftermath?"

Noticing Xiangsi Ran's defensive state, Ping Le smiled again, "Miss Ran, you don't need to be nervous. Regarding what happened last night, it has already been settled. Our Young Master keeps promises, handed you the evidence, and also asks the Miss to keep what happened last night and today confidential."

It turns out they came to ask for confidentiality, Xiangsi Ran thought it was something more serious!

"That arrogant guy is afraid I'll spill the beans? Then why did he let me go so easily? Last night, I heard from his tone, he seemed very angry?"

These questions Xiangsi Ran couldn't confirm with Xing Chen, so she took the chance to inquire with his little assistant.
