Chapter 70: Director Rui

“Sorry. I will tidy up immediately.” Then, I rushed to put all the utensils onto the dining cart. But because I was so nervous, my hands were shaking. I told myself to calm down, but my heart was still pounding like *ping ping ping*. To me, it was an ear-piercing sound.

I could feel the person approaching me from behind. I paused my movements as I felt cold sweat running down my back.

“Are you aware of the Lu Wenxue incident that had shocked the nation?”

“Lu Wenxue? How come you have ties with him?”

“Uh…..*explains*… so naturally…” I stammered.

“Are you aware of how dangerous this situation is? No! I will not let you take part! I do not approve!” Grandmother Meng refused as she turned her seat around and faced her back at me.

I could tell Grandmother Meng had analyzed the situation. She was really different from the mass. Although she didn’t know the truth, she didn’t blindly choose to believe the public opinion.

Since Grandmother Meng was unwilling to help, I had to use my ultimate weapon.

“Suyang has already taken part in this case. In order to help him, I must figure out everything before he does. You also know there’s a conspiracy going on. But we don’t know what the conspiracy is.”

“Xiao Su? How did he get involved in this case?”

“I must help him! He is in too much danger on his own. The longer he is involved in this case, the more danger he will be in. So, the only way to come to a quicker conclusion is with your help.”

“You….” Grandmother Meng sighed and didn’t say anything else. It appeared she had silently agreed to my request.

As expected, the moment I mention Suyang, she had nothing else to say.

“Thank you!” I looked at my watch, “It’s only noon? I made an appointment with him to meet here at 7pm. Since I have 7 hours, I will stay here to complete the mission your precious grandson gave me!”

“Xiao Su? What type of mission did he give you?”

“Don’t mention it. The moment I think of it, I feel so irritated. Suyang actually demanded me to go to the aquarium to take pictures of every single species and write a description for each. I have to create a power-point presentation for him too. He purposely wants to make my life difficult.”

Grandmother Meng burst into laughter, “As expected of my grandson, he really has fresh ideas to mess with someone. I think he is personally making your life difficult because he doesn’t want you to participate in dangerous events with him.”

“Yeah….” I can’t believe she could say this in such a carefree manner. I hopelessly shook my head. The Su descendants were truly something else.

So, I focus on creating my power-point and in no time, it was already 6:30pm.

Surprisingly, I got the hang of this useless assignment and more or less completed it. Then, I waited for Lu Wenxue.
