Chapter 350

350 Leaving S City

In Lu Chao’s rented apartment, Bai Hong was sitting on the sofa and reading a magazine calmly. Lu Chao, who was sitting beside him, had a grave expression on his face. Bai Hong had just told him everything that had happened downstairs.

“I didn’t expect that that woman would still not let me go even after I’ve become like this.” Lu Chao smiled, but this smile contained fury.

“You have something against each other, so of course she’s worried that you’re still alive. After all, the dead are the safest,” Bai Hong said as he continued to read the magazine. He had just called Chu Ning and told her what had happened.

“But I’m fine now, and I’ll be out of her sight. She’ll have trouble sleeping and eating in the future.” Lu Chao was not afraid of death. He had long lost interest in living. However, he had to ensure that Jiang Fei and Fan Heng died before him.

“Hopefully,” Bai Hong replied casually. He had no interest in such matters. He was more interested in the contents of the magazine.

On the other hand, Chu Ning received a call from Bai Hong just as the team-building event was about to end. Over the phone, Bai Hong told her about Jiang Fei framing Lu Chao.

“Big Brother, I still have some things to deal with, so I’ll take my leave first. I hope the next time you come back, you won’t be coming alone,” Chu Ning whispered a few words into Chu Zhe’s ear and left the restaurant.

“Your sister is leaving? I still want to go shopping with her,” Gu Xin said with regret at seeing Chu Ning’s departure.

“I’m free tonight too.” Looking at Gu Xin’s slightly flushed face after drinking some wine, Chu Zhe didn’t know why, but he subconsciously said this without thinking.

“What?” Gu Xin suddenly widened her beautiful eyes and looked at Chu Zhe in disbelief. She thought she must have heard wrongly.

“Nothing, let’s eat,” Chu Zhe continued.

“I heard you,” Gu Xin suddenly said shyly, her face turning even redder.

On the other side, after Chu Ning left the restaurant, she used her phone to book tickets for the last train back to M City that night.

Even though she had to make a transfer midway and it would cause quite a bit of delay, Chu Ning felt that they had to be careful. She was not familiar with S City. If Jiang Fei had some tricks up her sleeve, it would bring Chu Ning a lot of trouble.

Chu Ning was still in the early stages of her career. She had many opponents in M City waiting for her to deal with. Any problems that appeared now would be bad for her.

Chu Ning was not in a hurry as she waited at the train station. She looked at the passengers coming and going in the waiting hall, but her mind was thinking about the future development of the Soaring Clouds Group.

“That’s all the luggage you have?” Chu Ning asked curiously when she saw that Lu Chao was only carrying a backpack.

“I have nothing to begin with,” Lu Chao said frankly.

“I was planning to leave tomorrow morning, but I’m still a little worried about the situation you just mentioned. It’s always good to be cautious.” Chu Ning looked at Bai Hong.

“I’ll follow whatever you say,” Bai Hong spread his hands and said in a noncommittal manner.

Seeing this, Chu Ning sighed helplessly.

She could tell that these two people didn’t care about their lives at all.

Bai Hong was a bloodthirsty person by nature. He could be considered a human weapon. After Lu Chao’s parents died and his family was broken, he no longer cared about anything.

At 9:45 pm, Chu Ning looked at the night view outside the window of the high-speed rail and finally felt relieved.

“I’m back,” Chu Ning muttered to herself as she looked at the rising sun outside the window.

After the train entered M City, Chu Ning felt an inexplicable sense of peace, as if she had returned to her own territory.

“You guys go and rest first. Lu Chao, I’ll tell you the details of your mission at 1 p.m,” Chu Ning said tiredly after walking out of the high-speed rail station and taking in the morning air.

“You can tell me now, I’m not sleepy.” Lu Chao was still full of energy. He just wanted to get to work as soon as possible.

“You’re not tired, but I am.” Chu Ning glanced at Lu Chao. She hadn’t even dared to close her eyes to rest on the high-speed rail, worried that there might be an accident along the way. However, this guy had been dead to the world. Of course, he wasn’t sleepy.

After returning to Jinghu District, Chu Ning took a quick shower and fell into a deep sleep.
