Chapter 363 - 356: Whose Scheme? (Part 3)
The idea of someone tampering with her car left Bai Yiran feeling uneasy.
Just when her car had an issue, Bai Chuan showed up and kindly helped her fix it. However, a professional technician later informed her that there were traces of tampering on the car.
If this was just a coincidence, it would be too much of a coincidence.
Bai Yiran didn’t want to overthink Bai Chuan’s good intentions, but his face, identical to that of Yin Tianshen, inevitably led Bai Yiran to think of other possibilities.
When Leng Yichen returned that night, he saw Bai Yiran sitting on the sofa in a fitted yellow nightgown. The lamp’s light shone on her face, making her appear exceptionally gentle and beautiful.
"Why aren’t you asleep yet?" Leng Yichen walked over, picked Bai Yiran up from the sofa, and gently placed her on the bed. Just as he was about to get up, Bai Yiran’s small hand hooked around his neck.
Leng Yichen smiled and kissed her forehead and lips, "Did you miss me? Hmm?"
While enjoying Leng Yichen’s kisses, Bai Yiran felt his body warmth and slowly recounted what had happened that evening.
"...The technician said there were traces of tampering..."
Leng Yichen’s body tensed suddenly, holding Bai Yiran tightly as he asked nervously, "Are you okay? Were you hurt?"
"No," Bai Yiran shook her head, "just a bit scared afterwards."
"Who was the one who fixed your car? Do you know him?" Leng Yichen sharply sensed something about this car repair person.
"Not really, I’ve just seen him before, his name is Bai Chuan." Bai Yiran didn’t know that Leng Yichen had once looked for Bai Chuan and assumed they weren’t acquainted yet.
Hearing the name Bai Chuan, Leng Yichen’s expression turned serious, "Don’t drive that car anymore. Have Li Sha pick you up and drop you off from now on."
"Okay." This time, Bai Yiran didn’t argue, as today’s incident had truly frightened her.
There weren’t just her in the car at that time but also Xiao Lang and Cheng Shishi. If the car had been more severely tampered with or if the person who tampered with it had been more ruthless, perhaps their lives might have been at risk.
This lingering fear made Bai Yiran’s heart grow cold and her spine shiver.
Leng Yichen quickly finished his shower and returned to Bai Yiran’s side, holding her in his arms.
At this moment, neither of them was in the mood for any intimate relations.
The next day, Liu Fei’s boss, Ming Jue, was awakened by a phone call while still sleeping.
The call’s content startled him. A police raid took place in the early hours, uncovering several prostitution activities, prompting an immediate police shutdown.
If it was just an arrest, it wouldn’t be the worst part; what worried Ming Jue most was that those caught were almost all prominent figures in the city. Moreover, somehow, the news was leaked, and reporters were among the police during the raid, capturing those individuals’ faces clearly!
Suddenly, Liu Fei was thrust into the spotlight. Not only was it shut down, but it also made it onto the blacklist of renowned city figures who were arrested. It seems that troubles and retaliations will be endless in the future.
Ming Jue looked at the calm-faced Bai Chuan and said in frustration, "It’s obviously Leng Yichen’s doing. Why did you have to provoke Bai Yiran?"
Bai Chuan remained calm, unaffected by Liu Fei’s downfall, and when he looked up at Ming Jue, there was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
"I just wanted to create a chance to meet her openly," he said.
Ming Jue was taken aback, "Is that really it?"
"What else?" Bai Chuan retorted.
Looking at Bai Chuan, Ming Jue felt an inexplicable sensation. Was it really worth sacrificing all of Liu Fei just for a chance to meet her?
