Chapter 440. Ning Jie is the Smartest
It's not that Gu Heng wasn't being cautious, but over the past few days, Bai Qiusheng had made her extremely tense. So, she could no longer tell when Bai Qiusheng was telling the truth or lying. He simply told her, "Everything will be settled in a few days. When that time comes, you will be the female lead."
By this point, Gu Heng had long given up on the idea of being female lead. All she was worried about now, was whether Bai Qiusheng would be exposed.
However, Bai Qiusheng didn't share any information with her. He simply told her to wait and to make sure not to reveal their relationship. But, this cluelessness was the reason that she took Bei Chendong's bait as soon as he threw it out - because she had no idea what Bai Qiusheng had planned.
In the middle of the night, Gu Heng left her home without her assistant. All alone, she drove to her usual meeting place with Bai Qiusheng; an underground cafe.
However, after she arrived, she realized Bai Qiusheng was not there. She then received a phone call from Bei Chendong, "I was discovered by my manager, so I won't be able to come out tonight. Go home first and we'll meet another time."
Gu Heng did not question the voice that she heard. So she quickly returned home without realizing that she was being tailed.
She was in too much of a panic to notice...
Those that were sent out by Mo Ting, had always been trustworthy. So it didn't take long before he received information from the cafe about a nearby hotel that Gu Heng and Bai Qiusheng often frequented. He even got hold of a record of their stays and photos from locals of the two entering and exiting the hotel.
The hotel was in a hidden location and had strong confidentiality procedures. However, the staff couldn't resist bribes. After all, there was no way for their boss to find out who leaked the information.
