In the end, Mu Huan did have dinner at Ma’s Private Restaurant, but Bao Junyan did not get to see her in a cheongsam, for after dinner and by the time they drove back to Yun Cheng from the Imperial Capital, it was well after 1 am and Mu Huan was already sleeping like a log.
Knowing that she had class the next morning, Bao Junyan did not disturb her and carried her back to the room while he went on to clear his backlog of work for the day.
The next day at Yun University…
Mu Huan had had fun, good food, and a good sleep the day before. And given that they had accomplished their mission successfully, she was about to be 300 thousand richer. She was in a good mood indeed.
However, when she walked into the classroom and was confronted by Long Feiting’s sinister smile, a good half of her high spirits immediately dissipated.
There will always be annoying flies in this world!
After Mu Huan had found herself a seat, Long Feiting got up and walked toward her.
Then he sat down next to her.
“Mu Huan, let me show you something.”
“I’m not looking!”
“If you won’t look, I’ll show it to Bao Junyan instead!”
Mu Huan immediately glared at him and said, “Long Feiting, can’t you just live your own life and leave me alone? Do you think that I don’t know a hundred and eight ways to kill you without leaving a trail?”
“I know you do,” Long Feiting said sincerely.
“Well then, hurry up and scram as far as you can!”
“But I believe even more that you wouldn’t dare!”
Mu Huan: “…!!!”
“It’s not that I don’t dare, I…”
“You don’t wish to dirty your own hands, I know,” Long Feiting said with that smug know-it-all expression.
Mu Huan: “…”
After a while…
“Big Brother Long, Young Master Long, Ancestor Long, take it that I’m begging you. I’m begging you to give me a safe out and allow me to get a proper education and improve with each day, okay?” Mu Huan had always been a person who was able to bend and stretch.
“Your plea is too insincere. You have to be sincere when you’re begging someone,” Long Feiting said, then hummed.
She had had the guts to injure him with a knife and inject him with that sort of tranquilizer, and now she wanted him to let her go just because she said so? Dream on!
“How would you like me to beg? Show me a model.” If putting on an act could get her a stable career after college, she was willing to satisfy his arrogance and frustrated ego.
“You’ll have to kneel down and cling to my leg in front of everyone, then beg the Young Master Long to forgive you! And you will get up only when I decide to forgive you!” Long Feiting came up with a condition that he knew she would never accept.
“I might as well have you killed — that would be a much happier way!” Mu Huan suddenly turned icy.
“Come on, then, I’m right here, you can try and kill me!” Long Feiting raised an eyebrow.
Mu Huan glared at him, chanting repeatedly that murder was a crime before she could suppress that murderous urge.
“What exactly do you want?!”
“First of all, just take a look at this good thing in my hand. Knowing about my bargaining chip could help you in deciding how you would want to counterattack, after all.” Long Feiting made a come hither gesture at her, persuading her to come closer.
Mu Huan twitched her mouth.
If Long Feiting were a thoroughly-rotten egg, at least she could torture him viciously, but unfortunately, he wasn’t completely bad, and he came from a strong background. She couldn’t bring herself to be completely ruthless!
“Hurry up and look! If you miss this chance, I may not show it to you after!”
Mu Huan had no choice but to lower her head and look.
As she did so, her expression changed at once!
Seeing the sudden change, Long Feiting was smugly satisfied. At least his efforts paid off!
“Mu Huan, what do you think will happen if I show these to Bao Junyan?”
“I’ll kill you before you can even do that!” Mu Huan replied maliciously.
Long Feiting was not the least afraid. On the contrary, he was amused. “This is interesting!”
