Chapter 357: A Tight Slap

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

They proceed to make their way to Nanmu Hotel.

Inside their SUV, the few of them stayed silent.

Nanmu City was too small. They only need to pass two intersections, make a turn, and they would reach the hotel soon enough.

At this moment, Bai Muchuan suddenly ordered for them to stop the SUV.

Xiang Wan asked, “What happened?”

She thought something had cropped up.

Bai Muchuan, however, pulled the door open. “Wait for me by the roadside.”

Thud!

The door closed.

Bai Muchuan left a back view for everyone.

Quan Shaoteng rolled down the car window and looked on at his back view. “Little Bai... what is he up to?”

Xiang Wan was perplexed as well. “Beats me!”

Quan Shaoteng did not seem to believe her. “You don’t know either?”

“Mm.” Xiang Wan also looked at the diminishing figure that disappeared into a pharmacy.

“Is he feeling unwell anywhere?” Quan Shaoteng asked again.

“Maybe...” Xiang Wan contemplated over it. “He suffered a gunshot wound after all, but he’s such a stubborn person; he wouldn’t say a word even if he’s unwell anywhere!”

“Hur! He’s always like this!” agreed Quan Shaoteng.

After that, he let out a yawn and seemed no longer curious.

He leaned against his seat and tapped his fingers lazily at the back of the seat.

“Could he be preparing something for Meng Chi?”

Didn’t Tu Liang just mention that Meng Chi’s at Nanmu Hotel?

Bai Muchuan and Xiang Wan had a narrow escape with their lives at Wen Xin Nunnery, with Bai Muchuan’s character, would he be able to let it go like this?

If he saw Meng Chi later and forcefully make him take some kind of drug... Wouldn’t that be awesome?

“Pffft! This will be perfect!”

Quan Shaoteng laughed sinisterly at this thought.

However, when Xiang Wan heard that, she was unable to laugh.

“... I don’t think that will happen!”

Bai Muchuan would not behave like that.

That was her opinion, but as Quan Shaoteng seemed elated by that thought, she decided to leave things be.

They waited for about three to four minutes before Bai Muchuan came back.

He opened the door and got up quietly, seemingly without the intention to explain the reason for his action.

“Let’s go!”

The SUV started to move again.

Quan Shaoteng drew closer and looked at him for a moment. “Hey brother, where did you go?”

Bai Muchuan closed his eyes lazily. “Bought some medicine!”

Quan Shaoteng replied in a soft whisper, “You’re feeling unwell?”

Bai Muchuan squinted and glanced back at him. “When I see you, I feel like giving you a good bashing!”

“... Are you bleeping sick or something?”

“Of course! Didn’t I just get some medicine for myself?”

“...”

His retort was superb!

No one could tell if he was really serious about it. Quan Shaoteng was unable to rebut him at all.

However, Xiang Wan was a little concerned.

She stole a few glances at Bai Muchuan. As they would be reaching the hotel soon, she decided to keep quiet for now.

The SUV stopped at the entrance of the hotel.

When they got down from the vehicle, their faces soon became cold when they came in contact with the strong winds.

Xiang Wan touched her rigid face and turned to Bai Muchuan. “What’s wrong?

“Mm?” asked Bai Muchuan.

“Are you feeling unwell?” Xiang Wan observed his face.

“Nope...”

“What medicine did you buy then?”

“I’m just teasing Laowu!” Bai Muchuan turned to her. When he saw Quan Shaoteng and Cheng Zheng walking behind, he tickled Xiang Wan’s palm. “I’ll give you a surprise later!”

Surprise?

Xiang Wan was confused.

Bai Muchuan held her by the waist as he walked into the hotel.

“We’ll talk later.”

There were a few people sitting in the hotel lobby.

Besides Meng Chi and Lima, there were also two to three men who Xiang Wan had not met before. From the looks of it, they should be Meng Chi’s assistants...

They wore formal clothes; there was a smile hanging on Meng Chi’s face, looking as gentlemanly as always.

As for Lima... she seemed to have especially dolled herself up?

Her originally outstanding features, combined with some heavy and gorgeous makeup, was certainly eye-catching.

Her eye makeup was especially heavy, making the distance between her eyes narrower. At one glance, Lima looked like a Eurasian...

Her clothes made her look especially sexy. In such cold weather, she was only donned in a thin dress which showed off her great figure.

What was she trying to do?

Xiang Wan was thinking about her motives when Meng Chi got up from the seat.

“Captain Bai...”

He walked towards them with a smile and stretched out a hand to Bai Muchuan.

“You’re finally back. I’ve been waiting for your return.”

Is he up to something again? Xiang Wan thought.

Those few people who were with Meng Chi also got up and walked over.

With that, the atmosphere changed.

There were some tension and a chilly feeling.

The lobby of Nanmu Hotel was not very spacious and wide. With all of them standing by the entrance like that, it made the place appear crowded.

Bai Muchuan’s hand was still holding Xiang Wan by the waist.

He glanced at Meng Chi indifferently. He did not have any intention to shake his hand.

“If it isn’t CEO Meng, I heard you’re looking for me?”

Meng Chi also glanced at Xiang Wan, Quan Shaoteng, and the others who were beside Bai Muchuan without a change in his smile and expression.

“Let’s find a place to talk? It’s not convenient to talk when there are people going in and out of here...”

“If it’s not convenient, then there’s no need to talk.”

Bai Muchuan did not seem to want to give him any face.

In his pair of unfeeling eyes, his gaze felt sharp.

“CEO Meng, we’re just back from handling a case, and we’re exhausted. We need to rest.”

His underlying meaning was ‘if you’re wise enough, you should take your leave’!

Meng Chi was a businessman after all, there was no reason why he would not understand such implied meaning.

However, there was not a change in his expression. It seemed like he did not understand what Bai Muchuan was referring to.

“In that case... if Captain Bai finds it inconvenient to go out then let’s sit down on the sofa for a talk?”

Bai Muchuan raised his chin slightly, revealing a half-smile on his face.

He did not answer, and he showed no sign of moving from his current spot.

That put Meng Chi in an awkward position.

He continued in a low tone, “Basically, I’m here to know more about the case.”

Bai Muchuan pursed his mouth in a somewhat mocking smirk. “If it’s about the case, please follow the normal protocol. CEO Meng, this is after office hours. I shall take my leave!”

With that, he continued to hold Xiang Wan by the waist and walked toward the elevator, totally unbothered that what he did was considered rude to Meng Chi.

Meng Chi did not move from his spot, but his eyebrows scrunched up slightly.

Quan Shaoteng was smiling. He strolled past Meng Chi and sent a disdainful glance at him, as well as a snort. He stroked his ear stud and left.

The little gesture of his which was no different from the profligate sons of the rich, and it was especially infuriating...

Meng Chi gritted his teeth.

...

Bai Muchuan and his group entered the elevator and disappeared from their sight.

Under the watchful eyes of the public, Bai Muchuan had given Meng Chi the cold shoulder. His expression became grim.

The assistants remained silent.

However, the ignorant Lima stepped on his toes.

She pulled her line of sight back from Bai Muchuan and looked at Meng Chi as though she had suffered an injustice. “These people do not know how to appreciate your kindness. You took the initiative to look for them despite your high status...”

Slap! Meng Chi hit her face.

Fast and without any hesitation!

From the way he treated her, he did not seem to show respect for Lima, not even the slightest bit.

He did not utter a word prior to slapping her.

He did not say a word after he slapped her as well.

He gave her a cold look and strode away.

Lima held her burning hot cheek, transfixed by the pain...

Somehow, she noticed that the hotel receptionist seemed to be looking at her...

Lima felt even more ashamed and exasperated that she felt her cheeks dripping blood.

A young assistant took a look at her. “Be more mindful in the future! Let’s go!”

After that, he quickly followed after Meng Chi.

Lima followed along quickly with her head low.

“Assistant Bi, I... I don’t understand... What did I do wrong?”

The assistant, whose last name was Bi, looked at her coldly with a sarcastic smile.

“For opening your mouth!”

Our boss suffered a humiliation in front of so many people; shouldn’t you behave like a dead person and kept your mouth shut? He dissed in his head.

Not only did she fail to do so, she even made her presence known and tried to curry favor...

In the end, what happened to her?

Their boss needed an outlet to vent his anger.

By doing so, who else could he hit but her?

“... I understand now. Assistant Bi, you need to help me in the future. I’m still new in this industry... and I know nothing about all this...”

Lima’s eyes were like spitting fire. She was so full of bitterness that she almost couldn’t control the urge to cuss. Nevertheless, she had to hang her head low and speak in a likable and pitiful way.

“Aye... I’m just an assistant to Boss, how will I be able to help you?”

“Assistant Bi, let’s go for supper together later...”

...

Tenth floor.

The elevator arrived at their floor.

Quan Shaoteng walked out of the elevator. “Little Bai, your head-on blow’s really impressive. Why do I feel so happy to see that Meng dude defeated and speechless?”

Bai Muchuan grunted a laugh. “What head-on blow?”

Quan Shaoteng: “Didn’t you give him a head-on blow?”

Hur!

Bai Muchuan let out a lazy chuckle. “I don’t have the time for that!”

“...”

Weren’t they already in the hotel? They couldn’t be handling cases at this hour, so what could he be busy with?

Quan Shaoteng narrowed his pair of long, fox-like eyes. “Is there a mission tonight or something?”

Bai Muchuan smiled mysteriously at him. “Yes! Sleep.”

Quan Shaoteng didn’t know what to reply. “...”

D*rn!

He took 10 seconds to get what Bai Muchuan meant.

Then he yelled in a low tone at Bai Muchuan’s back view.

“Do you really think that it’s easy to bully bachelors? Young fellow, I’m staying right next to you, you better watch out...”

Bai Muchuan did not bother with him.

Whereas Xiang Wan suddenly seemed to realize something...

Thinking back about what Fang Yuanyuan told her earlier in the day, she blurted a question while Bai Muchuan swiped their room card. “Was Quan Laowu also staying next to our room last night?”

“Yeah!” Bai Muchuan swept a glance at her. “What about it?”

“...”

Indeed, one shouldn’t bully bachelors too much!

Young Master Bai’s embarrassing incident last night at Wen Xin Town had spread.

Xiang Wan believed that nobody dared to tell Bai Muchuan about this, so she was sure he did not know at all.

Hence, she decided not to say anything more.

“Nothing! I just wanted to know, that’s all.”

Bai Muchuan raised an eyebrow. Obviously, he did not believe her words at all.

However, he did not continue to press her for an answer, either.

He pulled Xiang Wan into the room and closed the door. He smelt her hair lovingly and embraced her, before whispering in her ear.

“Make a guess, what kind of surprise do I have for you?”
