Chapter Fifty-Eight: A Huge Blunder



Because it was Su Mu who had just spoken, the first person that flashed through her mind was Su Mu.

Her face flushed red instantly.

Her face turned red all the way down to the base of her ears.

Looking at the flushed little face, Zhang Heng muttered to himself in confusion, "Strange, why is her face so red all of a sudden? Could she have a fever?"

The moment this thought crossed his mind, Zhang Heng felt even more worried.

Since he had no hands, he could only lower his head and use his forehead to test the temperature of Cheng Meng's forehead.

People with their eyes closed are particularly sensitive to everything that comes near them. Just as Zhang Heng approached, the person who should have been unconscious suddenly opened their eyes.

They grabbed the head with both hands in time, preventing him from getting any closer.

Fortunately, they had already arrived at the parking lot, where it was very quiet and there were hardly any people around.

"Holy crap! Cheng Meng, why are you awake?"

Upon meeting those wide, piercing eyes, Zhang Heng blurted out "Holy crap!" He was terrified, but he didn't let go of the woman's arms.

"Zhang Heng, I never knew you were this kind of person! If I hadn't woken up, were you going to take advantage of me and kiss me? I treated you like a brother, but you wanted to sleep with me! Tell me, are you even human?!"

Cheng Meng was agile and immediately escaped from Zhang Heng's arms.

Hearing what the woman opposite him said, Zhang Heng almost died laughing. "Ha, that's hilarious. You're saying I took advantage of you and wanted to steal a kiss? Please get this straight. I saw your face was all red and suspected you had a fever, so I wanted to check your forehead to see if you had a fever!"

"You think all the women in the world are dead? Do you think my taste is that bad? Even if all the women in the world were dead, I still wouldn't want to sleep with you even if I abstained from sex!"

Cheng Meng felt guilty when she heard the first sentence.

But upon hearing the last sentence, her slight guilt was instantly dispelled by anger, and she felt like she could breathe fire. "Zhang Heng, what do you mean by that? Do you think I'm ugly? Let me tell you, I was the most beautiful girl in my department back in school!"

"I have tons of suitors! Besides, who knows if you're telling the truth or not? Can't you test my forehead with your hand?"

"Aren't my hands for holding you? Do you have three hands? Wait, that's not right, Cheng Meng, are you pretending to be unconscious? You're actually fine!"

As the argument went on, Zhang Heng suddenly realized something was wrong.

This directly exposed Cheng Meng's scam.

Clearly, Mo Jingjing and Su Mu, who were standing nearby, had realized what he was talking about.

"Sister Meng, why did you pretend to faint? And what did you mean by the danger you just told me about?" Mo Jingjing looked at Cheng Meng and asked the question that had been bothering her.

"This..." Cheng Meng glanced at Mo Jingjing with difficulty, then looked at Su Mu and Zhang Heng beside her, trying to get away with it. "Um, I... I wasn't pretending. I was really feeling unwell just now. I have a medical record of angina, but it doesn't hurt now."

"Hehe, Su Mu, Brother Zhang, you've really worked hard just now. My Jingjing is tired, so I'll take her back to rest first. You... you can make yourselves at home. If you still have to go back to the banquet, please be careful when you drink. We'll be going now."

Never mind!

Of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, the best is to flee!

She was just a lowly agent, only able to manage Mo Jingjing.

Anyway, she had already reminded Su Mu, and he was so smart, he would definitely understand!

Just like the way he looked at her just now, it was cold and sharp, as if he could see right through her.

Cheng Meng drove here today for convenience.

After getting into the car and closing the door, Cheng Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Whew~

The alarm has finally been lifted.

The questioning then began.

"Sister Meng, can you speak now?"

Mo Jingjing knew that Sister Meng was mature and steady, and wouldn't do something so nonsensical.

If something is done, there must be a reason.

And indeed, that proved to be true.

Only Cheng Meng and Mo Jingjing were left in the car. She had nothing to hold back and told Mo Jingjing everything she had overheard.

After hearing her words, Mo Jingjing's aura turned icy, and her pupils revealed a murderous intent.

Just like the female general in a political drama who, upon hearing that the enemy has launched an attack, sets a trap.

“Jingjing, although I heard about this with my own ears, everything needs to be based on evidence. I know you are very angry right now and want to confront Xing Feifei and her daughter, but we need to calm down.”

"The movie is finished filming, and we won't have any further contact with them. Let's leave this matter here for now, okay?"

Looking at Mo Jingjing, who was expressionless and silent, Cheng Meng suddenly felt a little scared and couldn't help but try to persuade her.

They forgot that they were the ones who initially wanted to kill the two of them.

"Sister Meng, you're overthinking it. I've already checked. Movies and TV series featuring artists with serious criminal records or who have broken the law will not pass censorship and will be banned from airing. So, I won't touch her before the political drama airs."

The movement also occurred after the airing of the political intrigue drama.

Just bear with it a little longer; they're just some insignificant nobodys anyway!

"Okay, that's good enough. We didn't eat much just now. Come on, Meng-jie will take you to eat something delicious—hot pot, barbecue, spicy hot pot, whatever you like. It's on me!"

Sister Meng's tone was quite arrogant.

"good."

Mo Jingjing nodded gratefully.

She loves everything, no matter what it is.

Soon, the car carrying Mo Jingjing passed by Su Mu, blending into the darkness.

"Alright, everyone's already gone. Tell me, what do we do now, go in or leave?" Zhang Heng turned his gaze to Su Mu and asked.

He's a renowned actor, what's the point of him standing outside like that?

What if some paparazzi sneaks in, takes a picture, and posts it online making up stories? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

"Go in and check who did something wrong tonight. If anyone asks about Mo Jingjing, just say she took Cheng Meng to the hospital. Let me know the results as soon as possible."

For some reason, Su Mu still felt uneasy.

Anyway, he didn't have any other engagements to attend tonight besides the wrap party, so he might as well be Mo Jingjing's protector for the night and quietly safeguard her.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

"Okay, but how am I going to get back later?"

They arrived in a car.

"I've already transferred your travel expenses and compensation to your card. You'll have to figure it out yourself."

After saying that, Su Mu took the car keys and left.

If he delays any longer, his sweetheart will be too far away to catch up with.

Taking out his phone, Zhang Heng glanced at the transfer amount on the screen and couldn't help but curse, "So much! Did this guy plan to keep me here all along?"
