Chapter 380: Caught in the Act
Since that floor was occupied by the crew, Ji Niandong and he dared not get too close while walking in the corridor. Lu Beichen had to walk ahead, and when passing Lin Ji Yang’s room, her heart was pounding with fear of being caught.
Sure enough, just at the turning point, she suddenly heard Lin Ji Yang opening the door and came out, quickly turning around and running. Just as the elevator door opened, Ji Niandong hugged Lu Beichen and said: "Quick, get into the elevator!"
Then, seeing the people inside, she couldn’t help but pause, and the people inside were equally startled looking at her. Lu Beichen naturally held her hand and asked, "Not coming out?"
Chi Yue reacted and walked out, while Lu Beichen took her straight in and closed the elevator door!
"What do I do? What do I do? We got caught!" Ji Niandong grabbed his arm and stomped her foot, "Didn’t you say it was no big deal?"
"Hmm, got caught by him, that’s great!" Lu Beichen replied calmly, seemingly recalling the moment the elevator door opened, the man’s shocked face, and the eyes that kept staring at their clasped hands.
"What’s great about it? What if he tells everyone?!" Ji Niandong quickly took out her phone, "I need to explain to him!"
Lu Beichen’s lips held a trace of a smile, "If he tells, that’s actually good!" He reached out to hug the jumping young woman into his arms, "If he’s that kind of person, then you don’t need to interact with him much!"
"At this time, you’re just being jealous!" Ji Niandong gritted her teeth, "Forget it, he doesn’t have any evidence!"
"Mm, exactly!" Lu Beichen nodded knowingly, and Ji Niandong glared at him and reached out to pinch his waist hard.
"Ow!" Lu Beichen looked down at her, "Seems like I can’t let Mrs. Lu off later!"
"Hmph!" Ji Niandong turned her face away.
Chi Yue stood in front of the elevator staring at the floors rising slowly, his slender figure almost rigid, until someone asked: "What are you doing standing here?"
Chi Yue turned his head to look at him without saying a word, Lin Ji Yang frowned and asked: "Did you see Ji Niandong just now?"
"What’s up?" Chi Yue asked in a low voice.
He inserted his hands into his pockets, his expression somewhat serious. Clearly shorter than him, yet the calm demeanor was daunting, Lin Ji Yang casually said: "Then it must have been her! Dare to run away from me! Without bringing an assistant, she ran off on her own, she’s really something!"
Lin Ji Yang seemed to be talking to himself, turned around, and walked back.
Chi Yue let out a small sigh of relief, he said alone, then he must have only seen her back, no wonder she was so eager to pull that man away!
But, that man...
Chi Yue only met his gaze for a second, the aura and chill conveyed in that look couldn’t help but make one shiver. In front of him, he felt so insignificant...
Chi Yue lowered his head with a self-deprecating smile and then returned to his room.
Once entering the presidential suite, Ji Niandong walked in angrily, then sat on the sofa glaring at the approaching man. Seeing her angry little face, Lu Beichen found it quite cute and sat beside her, and the little woman moved a bit to the side, twisting her body not to look at him.
Lu Beichen pretended not to see it, picked up the menu beside him, called for room service, and then asked: "Mrs. Lu, it’s fine to be angry, but don’t starve yourself!"
"Little Uncle, you did it on purpose, didn’t you?!" Ji Niandong turned her head to glare at him.
"How would I know he’d come out from the elevator? Seeing us is seeing us, I’m not someone who can’t be seen, right?" His face was full of teasing smile.
Ji Niandong stretched her foot to kick him, "You’re so annoying!"
