Chapter 281: Reports
Just as An Xuan turned and prepared to leave, a voice came from behind him. He turned and saw a pair of beautiful legs.
“I’ll go with you,” Zuo Qing volunteered, “Mr. An.”
An Xuan paused. Then, he scanned Zuo Qing’s voluptuous body. He nodded, “Thank you, Miss Zuo.”
“You’re welcome.”
After An Xuan and Zuo Jin disappeared, the other four stopped hesitating and headed to the play platform.
...
“Doctor,” Fatty said as he looked around as if worried that people would ambush them. After ensuring that everything was fine, he continued, “I was so scared earlier, I thought those blood...”
“Belong to Tang Shirou?” Jiang Cheng continued easily.
Fatty nodded vehemently, “That’s right! We saw the girl...” He gestured. He meant that the girl had lost her skin. Xia Meng followed the two. Ever since they left, she looked troubled, as if she couldn’t understand something.
“Don’t you think it’s strange?” She suddenly asked Jiang Cheng.
Fatty blinked. “Of course, it is strange. This whole place is strange! Someone just died, and we were served congealed blood! They must be doing this on purpose!” Fatty huffed, “I won’t eat congealed blood anymore!”
Jiang Cheng stopped. Fatty didn’t pay attention and almost ran into him.
“What do you mean?” Jiang Cheng asked her.
After the initial discomfort, Fatty wondered if the Doctor was too powerful, which caused them to get paired with strange teammates every time. Plus, they also had Xia Meng this time. In this mission filled with orphans, mad people, and two-faced creatures, Fatty felt like he wasn’t supposed to be there.
He was scared that the Doctor might be tricked or someone might stab him in the back. Fatty looked around and prayed to himself. “Please give me a path to survival.”
...
An Xuan walked in front. His leather shoes tapped on the pebbled path, making a great melody. Zuo Qing followed behind him. Along the way, they had no exchanges.
After they reached Young Master Huang’s place, they chose a secluded corner and sneaked in. There was an abandoned fake mountain. It was probably meant to be a scenic corner, but it had been left to nature. The two hid behind the stone mountain. An Xuan stared at Zuo Qing. The unfamiliarity on his face disappeared. He became serious. “You were too rash.” He frowned with dissatisfaction.
“You should have pulled someone along with you after I left. Using the excuse of suspecting me, you’d tail me.” An Xuan continued, “Then, find an opportunity to abandon that person and meet up with me.” He paused, “That way, even if they suspect anything, the suspicion will not fall on you. You can come up with excuses to blame everything on me. That way, no one will suspect our relationship.”
“I know.” Zuo Qing whispered back, “But the report said that...”
An Xuan pressed his lips. He glanced behind them. He said officiously, “There’s something wrong with the report this time. Tang Shirou is not suspicious at all. She is just a normal person.”
“I knew it.” Zuo Qing nodded. “I also thought she was normal. She was completely unaware of your tricks.”
“Damn it.” An Xuan gripped his fists. “The more she acted like that, the more suspicious I got. I was fooled by myself.”
“What’s done is done.” Zuo Qing patted his shoulders in consolation. “The mission is more important. Since there was an issue with the report, the upper management will understand.”
“Do you have anyone you suspect on your side?” An Xuan sighed and asked.
