Chapter 365 - 365: Three-Hundred and Sixty-Five: Cover For
Her coy and tender voice immediately attracted the surrounding people’s attention. Shi Nian turned back with an exasperated expression and raised his voice to say, “Okay, alright! I’ve introduced Tiger to you; he’s good boyfriend material. You two should spend some time getting to know each other. I still have something to do, so I’ll be going now.”
White Tiger gave Yun Liu a standard military salute, shielding Shi Nian from her sight. White Tiger loudly introduced himself, “Miss Yun Liu, it’s a pleasure to meet you! I’m our boss’ most favored and valued subordinate!”
Laughter rang out from the surrounding crowd, and the awkward atmosphere instantly became lively. The government executives began to speak one after another, telling jokes about White Tiger. No one noticed that ‘Shi Ke’ and his men had already disappeared into the crowd.
Miss Hong’s eyes narrowed, and with a gesture, one of her subordinates immediately sent out the news: “We’ve confirmed Shi Ke’s identity. He is healthy and uninjured.” Those who received the news would send the news to another, and another, and so forth, like a relay.
Dragon and Gray Wolf silently appeared before the first person who sent out the message—it was a little-known and inconspicuous guard in their troop.
“I, I-I…” The guard looked at the two, who’d appeared suddenly, so scared that he couldn’t even speak coherently.
Dragon rubbed his nose and chuckled, “What’s wrong? We’re not ghosts. Why are you so scared?”
“It’s because he’s got something to hide!” Gray Wolf said coldly. He moved, and the guard’s phone was in his hand before the man could react. Gray Wolf tossed it to the back, and Shi Nian raised his hand to catch it before walking out of the shadows.
The guard stared at Shi Nian, stunned and then shocked. “Y-You—You,” he stuttered.
Shi Nian quickly flipped through all the information on the phone and impassively stated, “Is ‘You, you, you’ and ‘Me, me, me’ all you can say?”
“You’re not Captain Shi?!” The guard cried out, terrified. Shi Nian didn’t even look at him and turned to leave.
Dragon smiled. “You just realized? It’s a little late now, though. Thanks for sending out the confirmation message!”
“Cut the crap, you!” Annoyed at Dragon’s chattiness, Gray Wolf knocked the guard unconscious with a knife-hand strike and carried him up.
The atmosphere was quite lively when Shi Nian returned to the venue. Shi Nian quietly walked to his superior’s side and was surprised to find two unfamiliar faces with him. Shi Nian glanced at their epaulets and immediately gave them a salute and the two chiefs looked at him in a friendly manner.
“Shi Ke, I’m giving you and your team a week off, specially approved!” Shi Ke’s superior, his chief, said with a smile.
“Thank you, Chief!” ‘Shi Ke’ saluted him and nodded lightly at the two unfamiliar chiefs before he turned around and left.
“Boss!” White Tiger caught up to him and exclaimed delightedly, “I’d like to meet up with Miss Yun during our vacation. Help me ask her out, please!”
‘Shi Ke’ turned around and smiled at him and Yun Liu. “Our leave has been approved. Yun Liu, we’ll send you home later.”
Yun Liu nodded obediently. “Okay, Shi Ke. I’m fine with anything you say!” White Tiger couldn’t help but glance at Yun Liu a few more times.
They brought Yun Liu to a lounge, and White Tiger accompanied her. He was very attentive, serving her tea and whatnot. “There’s no need to be so polite. I can do it myself,” Yun Liu hurriedly said.
White Tiger replied, “You’re our boss’s honored guest. He’ll skin me alive if I don’t treat you well!”
Yun Liu covered her mouth and giggled. “I don’t believe you. Shi Ke is never that fierce. He’s the nicest!”
White Tiger discreetly rubbed his arm and thought, ‘Ah, a girl like this is too much for a rough person like me.’ Trying to find a conversation topic, he asked, “When did you and our boss meet, Miss Yun?”
Yun Liu gave him a lovely smile and answered, “I was betrothed to Shi Ke’s younger brother, Shi Nian when we were kids. We grew up together!”
White Tiger was shocked. Yun Liu smiled beautifully and added, “So, I’ve known Shi Ke since we were kids, but he probably only thinks of me as a silly little girl.”
White Tiger couldn’t stop his heart from beating wildly at the sight. Although he was smiling, he was secretly complaining, ‘So this person before me is a hot potato! How on earth did she end up in that social gathering?
Yun Liu paid his silence no mind and continued to talk about the interesting things that had happened between her and Shi Nian since they were young to prove that she and Shi Nian were indeed ‘ betrothed since childhood.’
Yun Liu’s phone vibrated on the table. White Tiger’s gaze landed on it like an eagle’s. Yun Liu unlocked her phone before him and opened the WeChat message she just received. The message was from Shi Gao: “Take a clear photo of him and send it to me.”
Yun Liu couldn’t help but panic and look helplessly at White Tiger..
