Chapter 634: Obedient
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
At this moment, Cheng Yan’s heart was in her throat. Her body was curled up tightly. She did not even dare to breathe, let alone speak.
After Ah Yong searched again and left the alley, Cheng Yan took out her phone again. However, this time, her every move was exceptionally careful. “Shan Yue, you were right. Lang Nan was pretending just now. He has no intention of letting me off tonight.”
Even though Cheng Yan tried her best to remain calm, when faced with a true life and death situation, fear still surged in her heart.
Her trembling hand tapped the screen of her phone. “I’ve already seen Ah Yong searching for me nearby. That’s his best subordinate. He won’t easily send Ah Yong out on a mission unless it’s necessary.”
“Don’t be afraid. Just wait where you are.” Shan Yue frowned slightly. She did not even wait for the red light in front of her and rushed over. “I can reach you in two minutes at most. You have to hold on until I get there.”
“I’ll make it.” Cheng Yan took a few deep breaths and calmed down a little. “For now, I should still be safe. He definitely wouldn’t expect me to hide here…”
However, the most undesirable thing happened. Before Cheng Yan could finish typing the message, the moonlight shining on the trash can was slowly blocked by a black shadow.
Cheng Yan looked out of the corner of her eye nervously and saw Ah Yong slowly walking in her direction. She, who had just calmed down, became nervous again. The fear in her heart made her body start to lose control. She froze on the spot and couldn’t move even if she wanted to.
She had no choice but to use all her strength to delete the unfinished words on her phone. Then, she quickly typed two words. “Save me.”
Right on the heels of that, she deleted her chat with Shan Yue. In just a few seconds, she was done. When she looked ahead again, Ah Yong was already standing in front of the trash can, only a bucket away from her.
“Director Cheng, I know you’re inside. We’re all working for Deputy Governor Lang. We’re colleagues. Please come out yourself. There’s no point in continuing to hide.”
Ah Yong stood under the moonlight with a condescending attitude and a very tough tone.
“If you walk out by yourself, you can still avoid some physical pain. But if you don’t cooperate with me and let me invite you out, it will be a different outcome.”
Although Cheng Yan wanted to continue pretending to be stupid, the current situation no longer allowed her to do so. She could only suppress her fear and slowly stand up. Her gaze met Ah Yong’s.
“It seems that Director Cheng is still very tactful. However, this is good too. It saves me a lot of trouble.” Ah Yong’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “In the end, it’s all thanks to my sharp ears. If not for the slight vibration of your cell phone, I’m afraid 1 wouldn’t have been able to find you hiding here.”
Cheng Yan couldn’t help but smile bitterly in her heart. Despite all her calculations, she had still made a mistake. She did not expect that she had specially turned her phone to vibrate, but it still did not escape All Yong’s ears.
“All Yong, what a coincidence. How did I bump into you here?” Cheng Yan forced a smile on her lips and opened them awkwardly. “Could it be that Deputy Governor Lang has something urgent to do? He even sent you out.”
“Director Cheng, we know the answers to many questions in our hearts. Why don’t we wait and talk about these things?” Ah Yong moved aside and made room. “We might as well get out of this dim and small place first. I don’t think you want to talk with such a heavy smell of trash, right?”
Cheng Yan did not say anything else. She just slowly moved forward with small steps.
Soon, the two of them walked out of the alley and arrived at a slightly wider area.
“Director Cheng, there’s no need to continue pretending to be stupid. It’s meaningless. Submit obediently. I can be more nimble and let you suffer a little less..”
