Chapter 160: He acts foolishly but is always proud.

Just as I was about to take out my phone to call Wen Dog, I saw Leo's name flashing on the screen.

The people at the celebration party had called him several times in turn, but his phone was on silent and he didn't answer.

The main reason is that I’m afraid that the ringing of the cell phone will wake up the dog that has finally calmed down and make it start to make trouble again.

As soon as the call was connected, before Lin Xingye could speak, he heard Leo's anxious voice.

"Huh... Mars! You finally answered the phone. You haven't arrived yet. We called you so many times but no one answered. We thought something happened to you."

"It's okay, it's not a big deal."

Lin Xingye replied indifferently.

I'm telling the truth. He is indeed fine. The one who is injured is still lying inside.

"How long will it take you to get here? The food is already served, even that shameless Koyel is here. Now we're just waiting for you."

Her starry eyes glanced at the tightly closed ward door and she responded with a helpless shrug.

"Um... I have something to do, so I won't go. You guys eat. I'll pay."

The racing driver was generous for once.

"……ah??"

Leo was confused. Didn't he just say that everything was fine?

If he remembered correctly, this was a celebration party specially held for Mars...

If the protagonist doesn’t come, what are they celebrating?

"Boss, what's going on? Do you want me to help you?"

"Need not."

Lin Xingye refused in a deep voice.

He can handle this by himself without any help from others...

No one else can help.

"You're not secretly driving that car out for a mountain sprint because it feels so good, are you? You don't want to come back, are you?"

Leo made a serious guess.

After all, it makes sense for this to happen to Mars.

He didn't know if the car was any good, but it was sure to be explosive.

"...No, an enemy is injured, I'm going to check..."

Let’s do some accounting by the way.

Leo: …

Boss, would you like to hear what you are saying?

Sometimes everything is fine, sometimes something happens. The enemy is injured... you go... take a look???

Is it reasonable?

Leo was about to ask more questions when Koyel on the opposite side suddenly stood up, snatched the phone from his hand without saying anything, and glared at him with disgust.

"I told you he couldn't come because of something, but you didn't believe me. Why are you talking so much?"

After complaining about Leo, she pouted and said to the person on the phone, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of the rest."

He has already sent people to investigate what caused the explosion and believes there will be results soon.

Lin Xingye: ...

Hearing what he said, why does it feel like Koyel seems to know something?

Regardless of whether this guy knows it or not, he doesn't want to involve irrelevant people.

"None of your business! ...Give the phone to Wen Yiqing,"

Wen Yiqing was peeling shrimp for the little hedgehog. He looked at the phone handed to him in confusion, wiped his hands quickly, and took it.

"Hey, Brother Ye? What's wrong?"

"Check Chi Jingyu's itinerary for the past few days. Also, check all the information about the company in Country K. The more detailed, the better."

"ah……?"

Before Wen Yiqing could ask what was going on, there was no movement on the other end of the phone, only a busy tone remained in the receiver.

I had no choice but to hand the phone back in frustration.

Three people answered the phone. Only the witness Koyel was not confused. The other two were confused. There was also someone who didn't answer the phone and was even more confused.

Ivor: Go and do it? Leave the rest to him? What is the master busy with? Koyel is eating all the food himself!!

Wen Yiqing: I've only had a few days' rest, why are you investigating again? Why is Brother Ye so involved with the Chi family?

Leo: I feel like the boss has been revealing more and more secrets since he went back to China. He doesn't tell me anything... Is he about to fall out of favor?

It’s really not a fall from favor.

Because he had never been favored.

As for why I didn't tell him, it was mainly because there was really nothing to publicize.

I can't tell him that I went back to my country and got engaged to a man, and that man slept with me and then got engaged to someone else...

He couldn't bring himself to do that.

As for tonight, it’s even harder to say.

He wants to settle the account, and if they can't reach an agreement, then just pretend it never happened.

Quietly foolish, but always proud.

Lin Xingye hung up the phone and looked at the cold full moon outside the window, his thoughts drifting further and further away.

The last time they met, the movie star mocked him for humiliating himself, but today he rushed over to protect him and even lay on him and acted coquettishly.

Who knows if that pervert is acting this time?

I am so stupid. People say that when you are drunk until dusk, you will be sad alone and will never look back even if you love someone again.

But the man didn't need to extend his hand, just smiled and he was still willing to follow him.

It's so stupid, so stupid...

Even though the fool knows he may fall into the abyss again, he is still willing to jump in.

Not cool at all, just like a love-brain controlled by emotions.

But he had no choice. His rationality collapsed the moment he saw that person.

call……

Lin Xingye breathed a sigh of relief and tried to light a cigarette, but his lighter wouldn't light up.

A pair of white and slender hands suddenly and considerately handed a lighter to him.

Looking at the reflection in the window and the evil upturned corners of the lips under the gold-framed glasses, Lin Xingye's pupils suddenly shrank and he turned his head abruptly to look at the person next to him.

He had seen this person before, in the information that Wen Gou sent him a few days ago.

"Master Lin, are you checking my schedule? Why don't I just tell you directly~"

The corners of Chi Jingyu's mouth curled up even higher. Under the incandescent light, his lips were even redder than in his reflection, as if stained with blood.

"Oh, okay~"

Lin Xingye raised the corner of his mouth and nodded with interest.

"It just saved me some trouble~"

Lin Xingye turned around and leaned leisurely against the windowsill. Her jade-like fingers took the lighter from his hand, lit the cigarette slowly, and threw the lighter back.

"Then let's start reporting from when you contacted the car company~"

The tone was almost like he was ordering his subordinates around. He always acted in a high and mighty manner.

Chi Jingyu didn't get angry either. He rubbed the intricate carvings on the lighter with his fingertips and chuckled, "You used my lighter, so you should at least give me a cigarette~"

Lin Xingye stared at his almost sickly pale face and sneered, "You don't have a cigarette? That's a pity~"

"It seems you can only buy second-hand ones~"

After saying this, he blew a puff of smoke at him provocatively.

A veil-like mist floats and diffuses in the air.

Chi Jingyu lightly pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a sinister and fierce look flashed in his eyes.

"Tsk...it seems you're much more interesting than I thought~"

"But I think you're boring."

Lin Xingye retorted impatiently.

"So much nonsense, are you going to say it or not?"

"Okay, tell me~"

Chi Jingyu also changed his posture and leaned against the windowsill side by side with him.

From a distance, the two looked like good friends chatting.
