Meng Xia brought Charlie to the tallest tower in A City, where they could overlook the entire city, making it a popular spot for couples. She did put effort into planning the itinerary, but she also had some ulterior motives, extending the duration of their trip to have some alone time with Charlie.
However, Charlie’s mood was utterly terrible at the moment, and he had no interest in admiring the current scenery. He forced a smile on his face and only relaxed his expression when he reached a secluded corner. “Fool, what’s the use of keeping you all? I should have let you die at the base!”
Charlie, filled with resentment, gripped the railing. He had intended to delay Song Fan today and prevent her from seeking Gu Chen, allowing his plan to proceed smoothly. However, Song Fan not only went to find Gu Chen but also disrupted his plans. What was more infuriating was Li Lan; he had warned her, yet she failed to handle things properly.
Li Lan, on the phone, dared not even breathe loudly. She knew his temper, and if she provoked him, her fate might be even more miserable. She could only silently await his judgment.
After half a minute, Charlie spoke, “Has your identity been exposed?”
“No! Sir, absolutely not!” Li Lan quickly refuted, “I dare to guarantee with my life that no one has discovered my identity!”
Her heart was already in her throat. She knew the consequences once her identity was exposed. Several of her previous companions had been tortured, and some were sent to foreign laboratories for live experiments.
Upon thinking about this, she couldn’t help but shiver. She didn’t want that fate. If it came to that, she would rather die!
“That’s good.” Charlie sneered, “Are you sure Song Fan is the person you mentioned? Did you have a confrontation with her today?”
Li Lan didn’t dare to hide anything and recounted the whole incident, but she concealed the ear stud matter. She knew this was her oversight, and she couldn’t let Charlie know about it.
Charlie then showed a trace of a smile. “Indeed, someone from there is truly formidable. But you did well, Lan. You know that I have always valued you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let you enjoy these good days for so many years and even reunited you with your family, right?”
Upon hearing him mention her family, Li Lan closed her eyes. After taking a deep breath, she said, “Yes, I will never forget your great kindness. If it weren’t for you, I would have died long ago, and you also helped my family. I will always remember your kindness. So, I am willing to do anything for you. What should I do next?”
Charlie listened to her loyalty on the phone but remained unmoved. What wouldn’t these people do to survive? In his eyes, they were no different from obedient dogs, or even worse than his dog.
“Let’s stay put for now. You haven’t found out anything yet. Gu Chen is not easy to deal with, and now there’s also Song Fan. Take care of your boyfriend first.”
After hanging up the phone, Charlie smiled again and returned to Meng Xia. “Xiao Xia, it’s really beautiful here, just like you.”
At this moment, he had an extra diamond necklace in his hand. Meng Xia instantly recognized it as the one she had been admiring at the counter earlier. However, the price was way beyond what she could afford. Nevertheless, she didn’t want Charlie to think she was a materialistic woman, so she hadn’t mentioned her liking for it. Unexpectedly, he had secretly bought it.
Charlie looked at her affectionately. “I can tell you like it. It’s yours now. Such a beautiful necklace can only be worn by a beauty like you.”
He gently placed the necklace around her neck, and Meng Xia was so excited that she couldn’t find words. She had never owned such an expensive piece of jewelry. Upon thinking about all the clothes and bags that Charlie had bought for her that day, she felt like it was all unreal.
But she instinctively maintained her image, lowering her head and shyly saying, “I can’t accept such a valuable necklace. You’ve already bought me many gifts.”
“This is nothing. You deserve the best in this world, my dear princess.” Charlie gently held her hand, and Meng Xia’s body trembled but dared not look up.
Today, Meng Yuqian had repeatedly instructed her not to be too proactive and not to let the man taste sweetness too easily, or he wouldn’t cherish her in the future.
However, by not looking up, she couldn’t see his eyes were devoid of any emotion. It was cold and indifferent even though his tone was gentle. How dare she think of becoming my woman? This is truly disgusting..
