Chapter 140: Return to Them with Their Own Way, The Fourth Update
Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Return to Them with Their Own Way, The Fourth UpdateImmediately after, Liu Mi suddenly realized she had said something wrong—in the presence of a whole crowd, she had actually taken the initiative to ask a man if he wanted to touch her leg... How was this any different from being a wanton woman?
But before she could gloss over the topic with a joke, she saw Chen Wei’s face turn deadly serious as he nodded emphatically, "Touch! Whoever backs out is a puppy!"
"..." Liu Mi truly wished she could invest all her possessions into the Regret Medicine re
"Enough, stop joking, I really need to use the restroom." Chen Wei withdrew his hand from Liu Mi’s.
"Ah! Perve—"
Chen Wei was quick to act; before Liu Mi could utter a few words, he had already stepped forward, cornering her against the wall, covering her mouth with his hand, his eyes fierce, "What are you yelling about!"
Liu Mi’s eyes curved like crescents, exceedingly attractive, as she lifted her hands to gently pull Chen Wei’s hand away from her mouth, using hardly any force, "Now you should know I wasn’t joking, right?"
"Fine! You win, I’ll touch, happy now?" Chen Wei sighed helplessly.
"Go ahead." Liu Mi smiled triumphantly.
Chen Wei thought about it; he wasn’t losing out on anything, so why not take the opportunity?
So he slowly moved his hand downwards, aiming for Liu Mi’s legs, and reached out.
"If you dare to move a bit lower, I might actually start calling for help about a pervert."
"..." Chen Wei’s hand almost reached Liu Mi’s thigh but froze in mid-air at her words.
"My dear lady, how can your moods flip faster than the weather at sea?" said Chen Wei, speechless.
Liu Mi sidestepped a step and walked past Chen Wei, "This is called ’using the other person’s tactic against them.’ Learn it, hehe."
Leaning in, she continued whispering in his ear, "I was just joking with you, too."
"Fine, you’re awesome, I’m impressed," Chen Wei raised his hand and gave a thumbs up.
"Glad you realize how awesome I am. Let’s see if you dare to tease me again." Liu Mi was beaming with pride, feeling extremely pleased with herself.
Looking back with a flirty gaze, she crooked her finger, "Let’s go. Be careful not to linger too long and wet your pants."
Clearing up one matter after another was what mattered, especially since it was no skin off his back. Chen Wei wasn’t about to quibble with Liu Mi.
Following, they headed toward the restroom.
Have to say, that restroom was honestly far away, taking a good two or three minutes to find.
"Go ahead, I’ll wait for you outside."
"Together?"
"Pervert! Stop dreaming in broad daylight," snapped Liu Mi, feigning anger.
"I was joking," said Chen Wei, turning to enter the restroom.
Liu Mi meanwhile took out her phone, using the time to scroll through news and such.
Hearing footsteps.
Liu Mi subconsciously put away her phone, "You’re... "
However, she found that the person coming out of the restroom wasn’t Chen Wei at all.
"You, Secretary Liu! What are you doing in front of the men’s restroom?" the man asked, somewhat surprised.
"Young Master He, please don’t misunderstand, I’m just waiting for my friend here," Liu Mi hastened to explain.
She knew the person. It was the son of the Qingfeng Pavilion’s owner, He Taiyang.
This wasn’t the first time Qingshi Group had collaborated with Qingfeng Pavilion, so they were rather familiar with each other.
"Friend?" He Taiyang was about to inquire further.
Then came Chen Wei’s nonchalant voice from behind, "That hit the spot! How about it, Secretary Liu, you didn’t sneak in for a peep, did you?"
"Who would want to peep at you, shameless!" Liu Mi glared at him.
After all, this was in front of others and he was hoping Chen Wei would be more serious.
"Who do you think you are, talking so frivolously in front of a lady? Do you know that in some countries, your behavior could already be considered harassment?" He Taiyang thought Liu Mi was genuinely disgusted with Chen Wei, saying this only to make himself look better in her eyes.
"I am in Great Xia. As long as it’s not considered harassment here, it’s fine. Or are you planning to use a foreign sword to execute one of my countrymen?" Chen Wei found He Taiyang’s words amusing.
"I don’t care who you are, you need to apologize to Miss Liu right now!" He Taiyang was practically commanding Chen Wei.
"This guy, your friend?" Chen Wei looked from He Taiyang to Liu Mi.
"No, he’s the son of the owner of this pavilion, He Taiyang."
"Young Master He, you’ve misunderstood, we were just joking around," Liu Mi was busy explaining to both sides.
"Miss Liu, you don’t have to be afraid of him. I’m here for you, no one can bully you. Rest assured, I will definitely make him apologize to you, and if you like, I can even make him kneel and apologize," said He Taiyang, knowing that Secretary Liu was not one to seek trouble, opting to smooth things over rather than escalate.
But now was different. With himself backing Liu Mi up, how could he just stand by and watch another man bully her in front of him?
He Taiyang wanted Liu Mi to see his manly and heroic side.
Chen Wei was the perfect stepping stone which he couldn’t pass up.
"Before you play the hero, I suggest you get your facts straight," advised Chen Wei amiably. "Be careful not to outsmart yourself!"
