Chapter 35

After sending the message successfully, Xu Yina said, “I think Li Fulong must have sexually harassed a lot of tour guides.”

I guessed so.

“Normally, tour guides need a tour guide license, but he only wanted to see my photo,” Xu Yina said. “I reckon quite a few girls are thinking they can make money as tour guides, so they all go to Li Fulong without a license. Those who don’t want to be taken advantage of by Li Fulong definitely can’t become tour guides, so I guess several of the tour guides at Li Fulong’s travel agency are having affairs with him. Boss, I’ve never really understood why some girls would sleep with men so easily?”

“They think their bodies are the best tool for making money. Of course, some girls really like having sex, just like some men like drinking.”

“Are you addicted?”

“Smoking is addictive, drinking is addictive, drug use is addictive, playing games is addictive, gambling is addictive, let alone things that can make you feel like you’re in heaven.”

“I don’t feel anything,” Xu Yina paused, then added, “Let’s not talk about this anymore, it feels a bit awkward.”

Han An also wanted to ask Xu Yina if her sex life with her husband was not harmonious, but the topic was too sensitive, so he didn’t say it.

“You have good looks and the potential to become my top-performing tour guide. However, whether you’re suitable or not, we’ll have to meet in person to decide. I’m quite busy this afternoon, so please don’t come to my company. I’ll let you know where we’re having dinner later; just be on time.”

“Okay, thank you, Mr. Li!”

After sending this WeChat message, Xu Yina handed her phone directly to Han An.

After reading it, Han An returned the phone to Xu Yina and said, “It seems he’s already taken the bait.”

“So there are some things that only women can do.”

“Then we’ll just wait for him to tell us where to eat,” Han An said. “You look adorable in the photo. Li Fulong has definitely got the upper hand, so you have to be extra careful when you meet him this evening. If anything happens to you, I’ll feel guilty for the rest of my life.”

“Boss, could you please stop saying such unlucky things?”

“It’s always good to be cautious.”

“I’m sure nothing will happen to me,” Xu Yina said. “This evening, let’s go to the restaurant to find Li Fulong. After that, you can ask Li Fulong about his relationship with the restaurant owner. After that, the two of us can go to the bar to celebrate. Doesn’t that sound like a good idea?”

“Even a mighty dragon can’t suppress a local snake.”

“It’s just a snake, you can’t even subdue it, you mighty dragon?”

“I’m afraid he’ll bring people over.”

“Impossible,” Xu Yina said. “He definitely wants to do *that* with me, so why would he bring a third wheel?”

I’m actually worried about you.

“I know you’re worried about me, boss, but there’s really no need to worry,” Xu Yina said. “There will definitely be a lot of people at the restaurant, and he can’t do anything to me. Besides, if he really wanted to do something to me, you would definitely step in immediately. You can’t just stand by and let me get bullied, can you?”

“This is impossible.”

“Isn’t that settled then?”

Han An wanted to say something, but when he heard Xu Yina’s phone ring, he stopped talking.

After picking up her phone, Xu Yina said, “Six o’clock sharp, Jinrong Restaurant, Room 203.”

“It looks like a private room.”

“Um.”

“It seems that in his eyes, Ina, you really are a beauty, so he doesn’t even want to sit in the lobby.”

“Does this mean the danger level has increased?”

“I won’t let anything happen to you.”

“What if something goes wrong?”

“You just said what I said was unlucky, but aren’t what you’re saying now also unlucky?”

“Just kidding,” Xu Yina said, squinting. “Boss, if I can help you figure out how your wife cheated on you, you’ll have to reward me handsomely. Forget about a promotion; I don’t want to take your position. Forget about money; that would make me seem like a gold digger. Forget about meals; you’ve treated me to plenty in Lijiang. After thinking it over, I think I’ll just ask for a bottle of 1982 Lafite.”

“A 1982 Lafite?” Han An chuckled. “I’ve heard countless jokes about this stuff, but I really don’t know the exact price. But I’m certain it’s practically impossible to buy on the market, so I suggest you change your request, Ina.”

“If I can’t think of anything, I’ll just keep it. The day I figure out what I want, boss, you can grant my wish.”

“The prerequisite is that I must know how my wife cheated on me.”

“Anyway, we’ll see Li Fulong tonight, and then we’ll find out the truth, right?”

Seeing Xu Yina’s confident smile, Han An, who was somewhat worried, nodded.

After lunch, the two headed towards the ancient city.

Since Xu Yina didn’t know much about the ancient city, Han An wanted to take her for a stroll around it.

Around 3 p.m., Han An’s phone rang.

Seeing that it was his wife calling, Han An gestured for Xu Yina to be quiet.

After understanding, Xu Yina walked into the Dongba paper workshop next door.

Seeing this, Han An answered the phone.

“Honey, I’ve arrived in Shenzhen.”

“That’s good. Then you should take a taxi home quickly.”

Where are you?

“I strolled around the ancient city.”

“What’s the point of wandering around? Didn’t we already go yesterday?”

“Actually, I mainly came here for lunch,” Han An said. “I’ve always loved the cured pork ribs at Laodaofang, so I went there specifically to eat. After eating, I figured there wasn’t anywhere else to go, so I just wandered around the old town. I’ll probably go back tomorrow or the day after, so you can just stay home and wait for me.”

“Did you buy it?”

“If you hadn’t told me, I would have forgotten.”

“Then forget about it. I don’t want to play the kind of wife you’re talking about.”

“How about we change the plot a bit?” Han An said. “You still play the flight attendant, and I’ll play the husband catching his wife cheating. After the plane comes to a stop, neither you nor the captain get off the plane; instead, you two are having an affair in the cockpit. With the help of your colleague, I get on the plane and successfully complete the mission of catching them in the act.”

“Honey, I don’t want to play this kind of game. Even if it’s just a game, I don’t want to play the role of a cheating wife. If I act too convincingly, you’ll definitely think it’s real, and then our relationship will be in crisis.”

“How could you cheat on me?” Han An asked expressionlessly, looking at Xu Yina who was looking at the merchandise. “Even if every woman in the world cheated on you, you would never do it.”

“Thank you, honey.”

“Then you go and take a taxi, I’ll continue shopping.”

“I don’t want to play that kind of game, so don’t buy that dress.”

“I see.”

After saying those four words, Han An hung up.

After hanging up, Han An directly bought the flight attendant uniform on JD.com.

After making his purchase, Han An entered the Dongba Paper Mill.

Meanwhile, Bai Jing, who was at Shenzhen Bao’an Airport, took a taxi directly to her residential community, Jingli Garden.

Upon arriving at Jingli Garden, Bai Jing did not go to her own apartment building, but instead went to her mother-in-law’s apartment building, where she needed to pick up her son.

Upon arriving at room 1302, Bai Jing knocked on the door.

About half a minute later, her mother-in-law opened the door.

Bai Jing was about to speak, but seeing her mother-in-law’s very pale face, she quickly asked, “Mom, what’s wrong?”
