Mr. Zhan’s Little Demon is All Grown up

  Chapter 2496 I don't know it's her

  Since it was getting late, Lan Feng told Chu Xi to go home earlier and go to sleep.

  Chu Xi nodded absently, and left with him.

  In the car, Lan Feng saw that her complexion was not good, and she looked preoccupied, and then asked, "Xi'er, what's wrong?"

   "It's nothing." Chu Xi lowered her head, as if she had done something wrong.

   "Look up at me."

  Chu Xi slowly raised her head to look into his eyes, and the man asked again: "What's the matter?"

  Chu Xi pursed her lips and said nothing, after a while she said: "I, I can't say, I promised Yan'er not to tell anyone."

  She promised Huo Yan not to tell anyone that she liked Jiang Ci, and neither could Lan Feng.

   "Is it about Huo Yan?"

  Chu Xi nodded.

  Lan Feng didn't say anything, the two of them were very quiet along the way.

  Chu Xi looked out the window, feeling very worried. She didn't know if she was doing right or wrong, and she didn't know what kind of storm it would be tomorrow.

  Huojia Winery.

  In a corner of the yard, a man was answering the phone.

   "How is it? Did it succeed? Did Shi Qian and Jiang Ci get caught?" Huo Fanrou asked on the phone.

  The man frowned, and replied: "No, Jiang Ci was recruited, but the woman left early, and I can't proceed with the plan."

   "What! Did she notice something?"

"have no idea."

   "Anyway, you'd better hide for a while."

   "I see, hang up first, I have to go."

   "Wait, you said Jiang Ci was recruited, then he"

   "I don't know. I'm worried about being discovered. I've already left the banquet hall."

  Huo Fanrou said nothing more, the man hung up the phone, and quickly disappeared into the night.

  The next day, early morning.

   After being unconscious for an unknown amount of time, Huo Yan finally slowly opened her eyes. The discomfort all over her body reminded her of what happened last night.

  She. She told Jiang Ci

  She turned her head cautiously, only to find that there was no one around her.

  Jiang Ci left, he should be very angry, maybe he won't see her again in the future.

  Thinking of this, her nose was sore, and tears rushed out uncontrollably.

  The phone that fell on the ground rang again, and she struggled to get up to get the phone, trying not to hear anything unusual in her voice: "Brother"

   "Where are you? I haven't seen you all this afternoon?" Huo Fei asked.

   "I drank too much last night and have been sleeping in the upstairs lounge."

   "Since sleeping last night? How much have you drank?"

   "I don't remember exactly."

   "Go eat something when you wake up, I have to leave beforehand."

   "Where are you going?" Huo Yan asked nervously.

   Is he looking for Jiang Ci, is Jiang Ci going to tell him what happened last night, will this matter affect their friendship?

   "I went to the company, what's wrong?"

   "It's okay, you can go."

  Hung up the phone, Huo Yan lay back on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, momentarily dazed.

   She will never see Jiang Ci again.

  However, Huo Yan saw Jiang Ci at her home at night.

  Looking at his extremely handsome face, Huo Yan was shy and surprised at the same time, she thought Jiang Ci would never appear in her sight again.

  She changed the sentence softly: "Brother Jiang Ci."

  Jiang Ci looked at her and said 'hmm', no different from before.

  Huo Yan froze for a moment, staring at him blankly and suspiciously.

  Noticing the girl's gaze, Jiang Ci asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

  He forgot about last night?

   Still don't know it's her?

   "It's nothing." Huo Yan said softly, "I'm going back to my room." After speaking, she turned and left.

  At this time, Huo Fei came over: "Brother Ci, let's go."

   "Yes." Jiang Ci didn't think much, and left with Huo Fei.

  As soon as she returned to the bedroom, Huo Yan received a call from Chu Xi: "Yan'er. Me."

   "Xiao Xi, do you know what happened to Brother Jiang Ci last night?"

   "I'm sorry, Yan'er." Chu Ximan said apologetically, "I thought you could be with the person you like at the time, I. Second Young Master Jiang, did he say anything? Will he be responsible for you?"

   "He didn't know it was me last night. Xiao Xi, don't tell anyone about this."

   "But you have already."

   "Xiaoxi, I beg you, don't say it, please."

   After a long silence, Chu Xi said softly, "Okay, I promise you."

  Chu Xi lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, as soon as she closed her eyes, Huo Yan looked sad.

   "Xi'er." Lan Feng's voice suddenly sounded.

  Chu Xi looked at him apologetically: "Did I disturb you?"

   "What's wrong with you?" Lan Feng asked softly.

   "I may have done something wrong."
