Chapter 48: Chapter 48: A Little Embarrassing
Liu Zheng’s footsteps hesitated, and he stopped in his tracks before turning to look at the patrolling officers behind him.
He pointed at his own nose and asked, "You’re saying I don’t need to go?"
One of the patrollers nodded grudgingly and said, "Yes, you, the case is not being reported anymore."
"Oh! Then I’m off."
After saying that, Liu Zheng, without another word, headed in the direction of his electric tricycle.
Seeing him leave so abruptly, with no intention of coming back, the lady in white immediately became anxious.
It was not easy for her to find someone who knew about her illness, how could she let him go so easily?
With this thought in mind, the lady in white quickly followed him and took out a business card, extending it toward Liu Zheng.
"Sir, I’m really sorry, we did misunderstand you just now, and I would like to apologize to you," she said, even going so far as to bow in apology.
"This is my business card, my name is Luo Ya, and I hope we can have a proper talk," she added, her face filled with earnest hope.
However,
Liu Zheng’s expression remained cold, as if he hadn’t seen the business card in her hand.
"What is there to talk about? It seems we’re not acquainted."
"You, you..."
Luo Ya truly hadn’t expected Liu Zheng to react this way.
Anger bubbled inside her, and she was nearly at her breaking point.
However,
Liu Zheng didn’t care about any of that and simply walked around her to his electric tricycle, got on, and sped away.
Watching Liu Zheng leave, Luo Ya couldn’t help but stamp her foot in frustration.
Turning her head, Luo Ya looked back at An Lin and commanded, "Look him up, immediately find out his background, who he is, and the most important thing is to arrange a meeting with him after you find out."
...
On the electric tricycle.
Liu Suqiu was still recovering from her fright.
She patted her chest with her hands, a face full of helplessness.
"I was scared to death! Just now, I almost thought we were going to be crushed to death by the cars front and back!"
Turning her head to look at Liu Suqiu, Liu Zheng reassured her with a playful grin, "But isn’t everything fine now?"
"But it was dangerous just now!"
Liu Sumei sighed, then, as if struck by a thought, she said, "I think that Dong Chengbin guy was definitely targeting us."
"Relax, Su Qiu, that can’t be, it must have been a coincidence," Liu Zheng hastily comforted her,
But how could there be so many coincidences in the world, especially ones so outrageous?
Even Liu Suqiu, a woman who hadn’t experienced much, could feel the malice behind their actions.
However, Liu Zheng’s reassurance did have its effect.
Although she was still somewhat suspicious, Liu Suqiu didn’t dwell on it too much.
Even if she did try to put that incident out of her mind, Liu Suqiu still turned to Liu Zheng and, slightly annoyed, warned him, "Let me remind you, I am older than you. Don’t keep calling me Su Qiu, call me Sister Su Qiu from now on, got it?"
Taken aback by his words, Liu Zheng was momentarily stunned.
He then turned his head with a playful grin and, after looking deeply at Liu Suqiu, immediately began to shower her with compliments, the words spilling out effortlessly.
"Wow! Just look at yourself, although you’re older than me, your skin is so fair and your appearance so sweet. With your natural beauty, anyone would think you’re younger than me. Don’t believe me? Ask around when you have time."
Flushed with embarrassment from Liu Zheng’s praise, Liu Suqiu didn’t quite know how to respond.
She shot Liu Zheng a look, but a smile was playing at the corners of her mouth.
"Hmph! All you do is spout slick words every day."
Even though she said that, she seemed quite pleased inwardly, feeling a sweet sensation.
Of course, this time she didn’t bring up changing how Liu Zheng addressed her.
The vehicle continued to move forward.
Before long, they reached the edge of the bumpy road.
At this point, Liu Suqiu called out to Liu Zheng to stop the electric tricycle.
Bewildered, Liu Zheng could only follow her instruction and brought the vehicle to a halt.
As soon as they stopped, Liu Suqiu turned around and said, "Help me unhook my bra."
Liu Zheng was startled, and while he didn’t quite understand why she wanted to unhook her bra right there, he still hurriedly did as she asked.
But this time, he didn’t dare to reach around to the front.
Once the bra was unhooked, Liu Suqiu quickly slid her hands inside her half-sleeve to tug and pull for a while, and finally managed to remove a black bra from under her shirt.
Turning back, she saw Liu Zheng’s puzzled eyes and expression.
Realizing he found her actions strange, Liu Suqiu didn’t hide the reason and explained, "I’d rather just take it off. Otherwise, it’s going to be uncomfortable when it’s half on, half off later."
Liu Zheng heard her and his face turned red, feeling quite embarrassed.
After all!
Taking this road to the county town was something Liu Zheng had intentionally chosen.
Now, with Liu Suqiu mentioning it in this way, he obviously felt embarrassed.
Scratching his head and smiling, Liu Zheng started the vehicle again.
The ride continued to be bumpy.
Finally, they arrived at Liu Sumei’s doorstep, and the two of them got out of the vehicle.
Liu Zheng was unaffected, but Liu Suqiu, after getting off, noticed something that made her feel a bit awkward herself.
Meanwhile, Liu Zheng didn’t think too much of it and took the bags from the electric tricycle, separating some of the fruits and vegetables he had bought and holding them in his hand.
Afterward, he and Liu Suqiu walked towards the house together.
However.
Unbeknownst to them, at the corner not far away, several pairs of eyes were watching them closely.
It was only after they entered the house that those few withdrew their gazes.
Ducking their heads back, Liu Kai, the leader of the group, couldn’t help sneering through his nose, "Damn it, that lucky bastard Liu Zheng actually has such good fortune with women, it’s infuriating. He has the beauty Wu Min at home, and now he’s hooked up with the pretty widow Liu Sumei."
Envious, Liu Kai was truly very envious of Liu Zheng at the moment.
He even felt like he wanted to switch places with Liu Zheng.
Of course, that was just a fleeting thought.
Hearing what he said, Wang Erniu, who was beside him, frowned in disapproval.
"Damn it! I mean, Kai, no offense as your big brother, but you’ve been to a martial arts school. How could you let that little punk Liu Zheng beat you up? If you had beaten him up that day, we could have had Wu Min for ourselves."
