Chapter 271: New Adventure
When Su Hui got off work, she immediately noticed Gu Fan lying lethargically on the couch, a look of worry on his face. This immediately alerted her to the fact that something bad had happened.
Concerned, she asked, "What’s wrong? Weren’t you supposed to meet Lin Xi? What happened? Did you two have another fight?"
Gu Fan just shook his head, "We didn’t fight. She didn’t even give me a chance to argue."
"What do you mean?" Su Hui was worried about Gu Fan; she had rarely seen him look so defeated.
Gu Fan sighed, "I was trying to help Lin Xi by giving her the blueprint and piecing it together for her. Instead of being grateful, she knocked me out, took the blueprint and left."
"No way, that’s so ungrateful!" Su Hui felt indignant for Gu Fan.
Gu Fan gave a bitter laugh, "That’s not even the worst part. When I woke up, the big boss had come looking for me."
Hearing this, Su Hui looked alarmed, "Good lord, you didn’t get torn to pieces by that devil did you? We have offended him quite a bit before."
"I too thought I was done for. However, to my surprise, that devil decided to spare me," Gu Fan recalled, rubbing his temples in pain. He then added, "But there was a condition... I have to catch up with Lin Xi. Whatever she discovers with that blueprint, I have to get."
