Chapter 372: 372, license plate number
“Little sister-in-law.” Nangong Ci chuckled on the other end, “What were you and big brother up to in the back seat?”
Su Wanwan was taken aback, “What back seat?”
“Don’t play dumb with me, I saw it with my own eyes. I recognized big brother’s license plate number clearly, N696969, a black Bentley.”
Su Wanwan:
“Hehehe.” Nangong Ci laughed wickedly, “Could it be that you two were… But that’s strange, it hasn’t been that long. Is big brother really that impatient…”
Without letting him finish, Su Wanwan quickly hung up, glaring furiously at the man driving.
Needless to say, Huo Jingshen noticed, although he didn’t lookback.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nangong Ci saw us just now!” Su Wanwan ground her teeth, “How ami supposed to face your brothers now?”
Given how big Nangong Ci’s mouth was, he was surely gossiping with his other friends by now.
It’s so embarrassing!
It’s over, it’s over. Su Wanwan felt utterly disgraced, even though they hadn’t actually done anything wrong, but…
The fear of public opinion is real!
Her phone rang again.
It was Nangong Ci again.
Su Wanwan didn’t want to pick up and quickly hung up.
However, he kept calling back.
He kept ringing non-stop.
At a red light, Huo Jingshen stopped the car and calmly reached out, “Give it to me.”
Su Wanwan quickly passed her phone to Huo Jingshen.
As soon as Huo Jingshen answered, he could hear Nangong Ci casually saying, “Little sister-in-law, I really pity you. Seriously, what’s up with big brother? Couldn’t he have waited? It’s noteven nine o’clock and he’s dragging you out for a car ride. Simply outrageous hehehe…”
“Are you done?” A chilling voice made the phone suddenly go silent.
“Continue.” Huo Jingshen’s voice was cold.
But how would Nangong Ci dare to continue?
By now, the green light was on. Huo Jingshen, narrowing his eyes, said, “Seems like you’re asking to be kicked off the board.”
“No, big brother!” Nangong Ci finally spoke, “Big brother, the light’s green, you should start driving.”
His eyebrow twitched, Huo Jingshen quickly looked up at the rearview mirror.
Sure enough, a flashy red sports car was parked not far behind.
It was Nangong Ci’s Ferrari.
“Get lost!” Having said that, Huo Jingshen hung up the phone.
As his car moved out, he quickly dialed another number.

Nangong Ci drove his sports car, occasionally checking WeChat.
Because a heart surgery was scheduled for 10 o’clock the next morning, about 10 minutes after Huo Jingshen and Su Wanwan left, he also left the club.
Who knew that as soon as he got to the roadside, he saw that black Mu Shang still there.
Since it was parked right next to his beloved car, Nangong Ci was puzzled. It’s been 10 minutes, why is the car still there? What are they up to?
Moreover, he couldn’t see inside Huo Jingshen’s car anymore since it had been tinted, unlike before.
So Nangong Ci sneakily waited behind for a while and…
He really did see something!
As he saw Huo Jingshen, looking flustered, coming out of the back door and, for a split second as the door closed, he noticed a pair of women’s feet on the car seat…
Those were the white UGG snow boots that Su Wanwan was wearing.
He immediately took out his phone and shared a short video in the group.
Once Huo Jingshen’s car drove off, he quickly got into his sports car and followed closely.
Indeed, the WJY group chat was blowing up.
Nangong Ci: [What do you think they were doing in the back seat?]
Behind it was a sneaky emoji.
MingJing: […]
Lu Chenyu: […]
ChuXiuhuang: […]
Nangong Ci: [I calculated the time, they were only there for 10 minutes.]
Chu Xiuhuang: [A legendary quick shot?]
MingJing: [Pff!]
Lu Chenyu: [The world is going downhill!]
Chu Xiuhuang: [Worse than beasts!]
Lu Chenyu: [Worse than pigs and dogs!]
Chu Xiuhuang: [Simply not human!]
After all, the group only had men, and they were all close, and while Huo Jingshen didn’t check the group often, it was a great opportunity to tarnish his reputation…
Just as Nangong Ci was chuckling, unexpectedly, his phone rang.
When he saw the caller ID, hurriedly, he answered, “Grandma?”
“Aci, have you been racing again?”
“No, I haven’t.”
“Really? Just now Jingshen called and told me you were racing, with a woman in the car. Quickly tell grandma, what’s her name? How old is she? What does she do? What’s her family situation? What stage are you two at? When are you going to bring her home for dinner?”
NangongCi: “…”
“You’re not exactly young anymore, almost twenty-seven. At your age, your dad was already running errands for your grandfather. You need to step it up, make it quick. Bring your girlfriend home these next few days to meet me,”
Nangong Ci gave no response.
After finally soothing the old lady, half an hour had already passed.
This caused Nangong Ci’s handsome face to twitch uncontrollably.
They even went behind his back to gossip!
How shameless!

The room on the eighth floor.
Not long after Nangong Ci left, Ming Jing also took off.
Only Chu Xiuhuang and Lu Chenyu remained in the room.
Chu Xiuhuang didn’t mind, he continued drinking.
Anyway, every time he drank, only Lu Chenyu would accompany him to the end.
Even though Chenyu spoke little and drank less, for the most part, it was Xiuhuang drinking alone. But the two of them could sit together for a whole night, just like now.
The night was cool, and the room was tranquil.
Finally, when it was midnight, Lu Chenyu broke the silence.
“Your birthday has passed.”
Chu Xiuhuang opened his bloodshot eyes, tinted with alcohol, he seemed somewhat drunk.
Lu Chenyu picked up his phone and dialed a number, “Jidu Club, room 802.”
After hanging up, he rose to his feet, “Let’s go.”
After a while, the room’s door was knocked twice before being opened.
Shi Huan stood at the entrance, looking around the spacious room. As she noted that only Chu Xiuhuang was in it, she walked in without hesitation.
“Mr. Chu.”
Since it was indoors, Chu Xiuhuang was wearing a thin black sweater and a pair of slim black pants. He was sitting on the sofa, his head slumped against the back of the chair, looking defeated and drowsy,
As if he had drunk himself into oblivion.
Shi Huan approached and her gaze inevitably landed on his face.
His eyes were thin and phoenix-like, eyebrows arched at the ends, his nose high and straight like a fine carving, almost perfect.
His face, when in rest, was picturesque, like a mesmerizing male protagonist in an animated series she was fond of when she was a young girl. It was so good-looking as if defying scrutiny.
But alas…
When he was awake, he was nothing like that.
“Mr. Chu? Are you drunk?” Shi Huan raised her voice.
Chu Xiuhuang finally begrudged to open his thin, long eyes.
When he saw the small woman standing in front of him, his thin lips curled, his whole face gleaming, like colorful light, “Little Huanhuan, you came to get me.”
He cast a glance around him, “Where’s Fourth Brother?”
“He left.” Shi Huan queried, “Can you get up by yourself?”
“Do you think… I can?” Chu Xiuhuang countered.
Shi Huan:”…”
From his voice, he didn’t sound drunk at all.
But all she could do was to reach for his arm to pull him up.
Shi Huan swayed for a while, then finally…
“Ah!”
A part of her leg got propped by something, and she immediately fell backward.
Chu Xiuhuang fell back as well.
So then…
“Ouch!” Shi Huan couldn’t help but cry out in pain again.
She felt like swearing!
Because Chu Xiuhuang was way too heavy!
She felt as though she was about to stop breathing…
Just so happened, it was “that” time of the month for her, females usually don’t feel well during this time. With his weight of over a hundred pounds weighing straight down, she was in unbearable pain.
After catching her breath for a while, Shi Huan finally said, “Mr. Chu, you’re drunk. I need you to get up so I can find a waiter for assistance.”
She didn’t have the strength to lift him up.
In the past, whenever he was drunk, waitstaff would usually be asked to help.
To her surprise, Chu Xiuhuang suddenly pulled a strand of her hair, and said hazily, “It’s wet.”
Shi Huan frowned, “I was washing my hair at home. As soon as I finished, I came right away to pick you up.”
She received Lu Chenyu’scall halfway when she was washing her hair, and she rushed over immediately.
Chu Xiuhuang chuckled.
Suddenly, he moved closer towards her face and sniffed, like a small puppy.
Then, he sniffed once more.
“Nice fragrance.”
At his words, Shi Huan frowned even more, “Mr. Chu, can you get up first?”
She stretched her hand out to push him but found him immovable.
Instead, she tired herself out.
Shi Huan panted, gathering all her strength for a big push, when suddenly the man’s face moved straight towards hers…
Stunned by the suddenness, Shi Huan gasped in surprise.
