Qi Nuan woke up in the presidential suite of a five-star hotel owned by Lu Corporation.
After being exhausted and hungry for a whole day and night and feeling so scared, she was finally tormented by Lu Yin and fainted again.
Looking at the time, it was already past eight o'clock the next morning.
Qi Nuan lay on his back and stretched out.
Although her body was sore at the moment, her sleep quality was surprisingly good and she was no longer as lethargic as she was yesterday.
"Wake up if you're awake. I ordered room service."
Hearing the sound, Qi Nuan stood up, wrapped his bathrobe tightly around him, and looked at Lu Yin who was sitting on the sofa.
He had changed into a dress shirt and trousers, and his hair was combed back. I couldn't tell if he hadn't slept or if he had just gotten up early.
Qi Nuan went to wash up first. When she came out, Lu Yin had already moved to the outer reception room.
She walked past Lu Yin and went to the dining table in front of him.
He didn't even look up, his fingers continuing to tap on the laptop keyboard, as if he was busy with work.
"My nerves aren't very good."
She sat down at the dining table, lifted the lid of her plate, and muttered something in a voice Lu Yin could hear.
Lu Yin looked up at her this time: "So, what?"
"So, I hope you won't do things like what you did yesterday in front of me again."
After taking a gulp of the lukewarm milk, Qi Nuan added, "Seeing blood makes it hard for me to sleep."
"So I made it up to you last night. You weren't awake when I brought you up here."
Qi Nuan frowned and blushed a bit. Just as she was about to turn around and act coquettishly, she heard him add, "I will try my best to avoid violent incidents in the future."
The "tapping" sound of the computer keyboard sounded a few more times, and the mobile phone next to Lu Yin vibrated.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
He simply pressed the speaker to connect, his fingers continuing to tap on the keyboard.
"Boss, we haven't found the other one. He must have made the connection and hidden himself. I interrogated this guy again and found out that his boss isn't from this country."
"Did anyone ask?"
"This guy said that when he spoke the language here, his accent sounded like someone from across the Dai Viet border. He's probably from Dai Viet."
Hearing the place names that implicitly referred to foreign countries, Qi Nuan pricked up his ears while eating breakfast, glancing over from time to time.
"Da da da" Lu Yin's men tapped on the keyboard for a while.
"Gu Hui probably won't contact him personally. Ask around and find out who is responsible for clearing the way for him."
"Yes, give me one more day and I will definitely go back and report."
"Yeah." Lu Yin responded, but his finger hesitated and did not press.
"The torture is over, give that guy some treatment."
He locked eyes with Qi Nuan, who had just turned around: "So that no one can get involved."
"Okay, I understand. But even if it's cured, that hand won't be able to be used normally."
Lu Yin didn't say anything else and hung up the phone.
He raised an eyebrow at Qi Nuan, indicating to her that this was the situation.
Qi Nuan turned around and continued to eat breakfast slowly, gesturing at roughly the same position on the back of his hand.
It's really hard to get back to normal after having your palm pierced like that.
But if that guy really killed Tang Yinghai on purpose to frame him as Lu Yin said, she felt that he deserved this result.
After thinking about it, Qi Nuan was slightly stunned, and lamented that he had such a change of mind.
"Do you really think that Gu Hui is the one behind this?"
Lu Yin seemed to have finally finished his work. He closed his notebook, stood up and walked towards Qi Nuan.
"If there's no direct evidence in a homicide case, shouldn't we look for the one who benefits the most when inferring the suspect? Gu Hui fits the bill perfectly."
Indeed, Tang Yinghai died before his case of embezzlement and misappropriation of company funds was concluded, and the negative impact almost halved the share price of Hongsheng Electronics.
And this is a good opportunity for Gu Hui to buy stocks in large quantities.
Qi Nuan grumbled in frustration, "Oh, if I hadn't dropped out of school and become a lawyer, I might have had the opportunity to participate directly."
Pulling her hand, Lu Yin took a bite of the remaining osmanthus cake.
"That would probably make it difficult for me."
"Why? Even if I really became a lawyer, I wouldn't help Gu Hui as long as you haven't committed a crime."
Lu Yin chuckled and swallowed all the osmanthus cake with Qi Nuan's hand, but still held her hand tightly.
"I'm not worried about that. The hard part is, how am I supposed to win you over?"
He teased the corner of his eyes and bit Qi Nuan's fingertips in a playful manner.
"Will the beauty trap work?"
Qi Nuan shuddered and subconsciously moved back a little in the chair.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Lu Yin raised his wrist to glance at his watch, and clicked his tongue with an unhappy expression.
After kneading Qi Nuan's palm again, he reluctantly let go of her hand and turned to open the door.
Qi Nuan placed his hand on his chest and soothed his trembling heart.
The beauty trap... When a handsome man becomes evil, he can be deadly.
The service staff outside the door pushed in two rows of hangers filled with various brand-name formal wear, and underwear was packed in large opaque boxes and stacked on the cabinet next to it.
The two waiters who followed in carried a pile of shoe boxes, opened them all and spread them on the carpet in the living room.
All women's.
The waiter saluted and left. Qi Nuan immediately asked, "What are these?"
"Your work clothes."
"What?!" Qi Nuan's eyes were filled with confusion. "I can't even wear the ones I have at home to work everyday. These ones look even more expensive, right?"
