Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Come or not, it's up to you.

Next comes the main event that he arranged.

Glancing casually at his phone, Xing Chen leaned back slightly, sinking deeply into the soft sofa, and changed to a more comfortable sitting position.

His eyes concealed a deeper meaning, indicating shrewdness.

"Director Li, calling me here so late, is just to confirm the identity of the woman in my room, correct?"

"This…" Director Li was slightly taken aback, unable to fathom what Xing Chen was thinking! "Didn't Young Master Xing say she was your wife? If she is your wife, then this must be a misunderstanding…"

"If she is not my wife, does that mean she is the suspect of tonight's theft?" Xing Chen's gaze fell coldly on Director Li.

"Young Master Xing, you are exaggerating, it's all just a misunderstanding…" Li Guoliang broke into a cold sweat!

If he had known, he would never have bothered Xing Chen late at night! Who would have guessed Xing Chen hadn't slept yet?

So, he came to sit in his office for a while!

Silently, Li Guoliang took out a tissue to wipe the sweat from his forehead, feeling how challenging it was to be a director, needing caution to rise up!

"Apparently, if my wife cannot come out and meet the director, it will be hard to clear the suspicion." Xing Chen's words were forceful and resolute!

Although there was no anger, his words carried an undeniable authority that made people want to submit unconsciously!

Ran Xiangsi heard this, and the spoon in her hand finally slipped, dropping onto the plate.

A crisp sound instantly spread…

In the process, it was transmitted via Xing Chen's phone, letting Li Guoliang hear it clearly!

Li Guoliang jumped, looked around, but didn't find anything!

While Li Guoliang was bewildered, Xing Chen leisurely picked up the phone, eyes smiling, "Xiangsi, did you hear? The director wants to see you. Tomorrow afternoon at three, World Trade Square's outdoor café. I'll bring what you want. Whether you come or not, it's up to you."

His voice was smooth, comfortable like jade, yet irritating enough to make one grit their teeth, longing to slap him directly!

Li Guoliang stared blankly at the phone Xing Chen picked up, utterly confused.

It turned out Young Master Xing had been calling his wife?

And the call was cut off at this moment, leaving the director's large reception room filled with busy signals.

Clearly, the call had been disconnected.

Ran Xiangsi swore this was the most shameless man she had ever met!! No comparison!!

He actually threatened her!!

With a "bang!" Ran Xiangsi heavily put down the phone, losing interest in eating, and handed it directly to the Prince.

The Princess noticed Ran Xiangsi's abnormality, saying, "Your heart rate and body temperature are rapidly increasing, excluding illness, I suggest deep breathing and relaxation."

"…." Ran Xiangsi paused, obediently took a couple of deep breaths, trying to calm herself down!

Once Ran Xiangsi had almost stabilized, the Princess continued, "The café is a trap, will you go?"

"I know it's a trap. But… the gun has my fingerprints, if I don't retrieve it, Li Guoliang will definitely find me soon." Ran Xiangsi was nearly grinding her teeth!

She had been too careless at that time…

At this point, she had no choice but to go!

"But if you go, you might be caught red-handed directly." The Princess's logic was strong as ever.

Ran Xiangsi going would mean real trouble if she got caught.
