Chapter 296: Accept the Result

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Looking at their clasped hands, Feng Yue trembled in anger. She wanted to stop them from leaving but realized that she had no right.

As her superiors had not decided who would take over Wu Mei’s bodyguard job, she would only be laughed at by more people if she continued to pester them.

Li Nanchen did not have a chauffeur today, so there were only him and Wu Mei in the car.

He opened a bottle of water and handed it to Wu Mei. “Don’t worry. I’ll investigate it thoroughly.”

“I won’t let anyone else be my bodyguard.”

After taking the bottle of water, Wu Mei held Li Nanchen’s hand and said seriously, “No, you do!”

Li Nanchen looked at Wu Mei in astonishment, thinking that she had lost her temper because she was angry. However, upon closer inspection, he realized that she was serious.

“I’m being serious. The tests have been done. What else is there to say? What’s important right now is not to do anything but find out who provided the anonymous tip.” Wu Mei’s voice grew colder, emitting a chilliness like the ice in winter.

She smirked. “I already have a candidate in mind. Do you want to hear it?”

Li Nanchen’s train of thought went along with Wu Mei. When he heard the word “candidate”, he immediately thought of the uninvited guest at home.

She came on her own and merely informed them when she left.

“Lin Piaopiao?” Li Nanchen muttered this name. His smile was filled with cruelty. He already had some plans in his mind and was prepared to investigate thoroughly.

Wu Mei nodded. “The composition in her shampoo is harmful to the skin. The user will lose a lot of hair.”

Before leaving, Lin Piaopiao had been suffering from such symptoms.

“I understand.” Li Nanchen did not think about how “difficult” it had been for Lin Piaopiao to collect Wu Mei hair during those few days. He only knew that he had a target to continue the investigation.

“However, it doesn’t matter if I’m not your bodyguard. Are you going to chase me out?” Wu Mei secretly let out a sigh and turned to smile at Li Nanchen.

How could Li Nanchen chase Wu Mei away?

If Wu Mei insisted on leaving, he would follow her.

“That’s it…” Before Wu Mei could continue, someone knocked on the window.

When she turned around and saw Bai Xue’s face, she had mixed feelings.

Li Nanchen was also full of doubts. After pulling Wu Mei towards him, he pressed the button that controlled the window and calmly asked, “What do you want?”

Bai Xue was infuriated by Li Nanchen’s cold attitude, but she controlled her temper and passed a document to him in the car. “From tomorrow onwards, I will be responsible for Mr. Li’s safety.”

Inside and outside the car.

The air froze and became suffocating.

Bai Xue’s face instantly darkened. She suppressed her dissatisfaction. Compared to protecting Li Nanchen, what she wanted more was to accept the mission of helping Ben.

“I’ll be at the Li Family’s villa starting tomorrow,” Bai Xue said.

“Okay!” Li Nanchen’s eyes shifted slightly. Hooking Wu Mei’s finger, he expressed his gratitude to Bai Xue before rolling up the car window.

Bai Xue looked at Wu Mei who was sitting in the car. How could she not understand?

Wu Mei had gotten together with Li Nanchen.

Wu Mei would not leave the Li Family even if she did not have a mission.

Why did everything fortunate befall such a woman?

Wu Mei did not know what Bai Xue thought of her. She thought about how Bai Xue would be around the Li family’s villa in the future. It would really be an eyesore.

She snapped out of it and began considering what to do next.

Actually, it was beneficial for her to not accept the “bodyguard” mission.

At the very least, she could free up more time to communicate with K and find out the cause of her death and the truth. That was her real motive. She did not intend to be trapped in the mess of the Wu Corporation.

Li Nanchen thought that Wu Mei was in a bad mood and turned the car around. He tried to coax her, “What are we going to eat? Let’s not go home.”

Wu Mei raised her brows and smiled. She propped her chin on one hand and looked at Li Nanchen. “President Li, aren’t you going to the office this afternoon?”

“The company is not as important as you.” Li Nanchen pinched her chin. He also realized that his girl’s emotions were hard to guess.

A moment ago, her face was covered with dark clouds. Now, she was all smiles.

After they reached the restaurant, Wu Mei went to the bathroom first. He took the opportunity to send a message and contacted Bi Fang at the same time.

After Bi Fang heard Li Nanchen’s arrangement, he said, “Crazy.” Then he asked, “Which restaurant did you guys go to? How’s the taste? Is the service good?”

Li Nanchen was baffled by Bi Fang’s series of questions. He sneered in confusion, “Why? Do you want to bring your girlfriend here to try the food?”

Where was Bi Fang going to get a girlfriend? He paused, cursed, and hung up.

Li Nanchen put down his phone and saw Wu Mei walking back.

Wu Mei sat beside him and naturally leaned into his embrace. “I’m really tired today.”

When she did the test again, she already knew this result. While calmly accepting it, she also suppressed her anger.

Who instigated Lin Piaopiao?

This person had to know the inside story.

Li Nanchen raised his hand and pressed it against her temple. “Don’t think about it for now. We’ll find out soon.”

Wu Mei shook her head helplessly.. “She’s not stupid. Why would she wait for you to catch her?”
