Chapter 108: Bickering
It was her oversight!
Wu Mei was so busy with Li Nanchen and the Wu family that she forgot to delete the surveillance cameras along the way that night. She did not expect K to find out…
She took a sip of the bitter coffee and looked up. With a faint smile on her face, she asked, “What? Do I have to report to you about every night jog I take?”
“Ben didn’t assign me any mission. I think maintaining my physical condition is one of the professionalism of special agents. I just happened to run here that night…”
“Why are you asking about this? Could it be that you were carrying out a mission nearby?”
Wu Mei casually turned the topic to K, trying to get some information from him.
K leaned back and like a hunter staring at his prey, he said, “You’re very smart, but I don’t like working with people with ulterior motives.”
A threat??Wu Mei knew K’s psychological attack well and remained silent.
The two of them were locked in a stalemate when the door of the coffee shop was suddenly pushed open. The bodyguards in black were guarding outside, scaring the boss and service staff so much that they knelt on the ground with their hands on their heads.
Li Nanchen walked over to them with a vicious aura. He grabbed Wu Mei’s wrist and shielded her behind him.
He glared at K as he said in a cold and hostile tone, “She’s the personal bodyguard that the Ministry of Defense assigned to me. If I find out that you contacted her privately and meet her again, I’ll report it to the Ministry of Defense! You’re disrupting the Ministry of Defense’s mission!”
“Any danger that I encounter can be caused by you secretly contacting the enemy, understand?”
Li Nanchen’s attitude was domineering. Wu Mei couldn’t conceal the smile on her face as she looked at K smugly.
K frowned and stood up to look him in the eyes. He said jokingly, “President Li doesn’t seem to be lacking a bodyguard like her, do you?”
His gaze landed on the group of bodyguards in black outside. All of them were carrying guns and ammunition. It was sufficient for him to see Li Nanchen’s abilities and background.
Li Nanchen held Wu Mei by his side possessively and said, “I only want her.”
K lowered his head helplessly but looked at Wu Mei warningly. “Don’t go there again…”
Wu Mei did not respond. Their conversation was ambiguous, as if they had a secret.
Li Nanchen lowered his eyes and stared at her, wanting to get an explanation. However, Wu Mei remained silent.
Gritting his teeth secretly, he glared at K coldly before dragging Wu Mei out of the coffee shop and tossing her into the car.
Bi Fang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, stuck his head out from the front passenger seat and looked at her in surprise. His gaze wandered between Wu Mei and Li Nanchen. As if he had guessed something, he pointed at them with glistening eyes and said, “Oh! So you’re Li Nanchen’s wife?”
“No wonder you could find the hidden GPS!”
Li Nanchen looked out of the car window and thought about the few times K had interacted with Wu Mei. She even ran away from him to meet K. His heart felt like it was being weighed down by a heavy rock and he couldn’t breathe.
Hearing Bi Fang’s clamoring, he said coldly, “We’re already divorced.”
Wu Mei was stunned. She furrowed her brows and stared unhappily at his side profile. Bi Fang, on the other hand, was the classic example of someone who would turn against others and become hostile. Seeing Li Nanchen’s attitude towards her, he dug up their old scores and brought up the matter in the washroom. “I was wondering, how could Nanchen like a woman who would recklessly barge into the male washroom?”
“Looking at your skills, you must be trained in mixed martial arts? Or perhaps combat? Women will suffer hormonal imbalance in this profession.”
Wu Mei tilted her head and stared at Bi Fang. She revealed a fake smile and mocked, “What’s wrong? A hormonal imbalance is better than someone hiding in the washroom when they’re in danger. At least I can rely on my abilities to escape from danger. What about you? If you hadn’t met me, you would probably have been taken away by now, right?”
“It’s really difficult to understand a man’s ego nowadays. He doesn’t even listen to any explanations and decides that what he sees is the only truth. He’s simply stupid…” Wu Mei mocked Li Nanchen secretly. Bi Fang was stunned, but Li Nanchen understood what she meant.
Taking two deep breaths, he took the initiative to lower his stance and said, “Let’s talk at home.”
Wu Mei turned to look out the car window, ignoring his attempt to curry favor with her. Suppressing his emotions, Li Nanchen’s brows knitted together tightly as he yelled in a low voice, “Wu Mei!”
When Bi Fang heard this familiar name, his eyes darted around.?He recalled that Li Nanchen had once asked him if he had a disciple. Her name was Wu Mei!
“Wow! She’s the woman who pretended to be my disciple?”
“I’ve never met her before, Nanchen. How can you keep a woman who doesn’t even blush when lying by your side?”
Bi Fang sized Wu Mei up with distaste. He had a terrible impression of her and urged Li Nanchen to throw her aside…
