[QTC] MBDT Chapter 781

Arc 9: Dark Emperor (48)

“Omg, the sun must rise from the west today.”

“I think I must be dreaming. Our ‘otherworldly’ boss actually fell from the sky.”

In just one hour, Hughes made everyone aware of Bei Yutang’s existence.

He liked to see everyone put his own labels on her body.

Every day after that, they would see their boss taking her to and from work together, almost 24 hours a day, inseparable.

Bei Yutang once asked why, and someone replied seriously: “If you leave me, you will have problems.”

“For example?” Bei Yutang looked at him.

“Like that time at the banquet.”

Bei Yutang looked at him awkwardly. This reason was so good that she was speechless.

In fact, she could still guess what he was thinking, but she chose not to say it.

Some things, as long as you understand them yourself, that’s enough.

The time she spent with him made her somewhat addicted.

The office was very quiet, one was working seriously, and the other was leisurely reading a book.

Bei Yutang went from sitting upright at the beginning to lying on the sofa without any image. She took off her shoes, revealing a pair of white feet, and bent her legs high up. Her legs were still restless, dangling in the air.

Hughes looked up from the document and saw this scene.

There happened to be a few rays of light shining on her body outside the window, shining on her white calves and tender white feet, which looked playful and cute.

It felt good to see her when he looked up.

Hughes looked at her, his eyes becoming dark and gloomy.

Bei Yutang seemed to feel the burning gaze behind her and raised her head from the book. Her clear eyes were filled with a hint of ignorance. She looked a little silly, but in a way that was inexplicably pleasing to the eye.

When she suddenly met his deep eyes, Bei Yutang felt her heart skip a beat.

This extremely aggressive look made her heart tremble slightly.

At this moment, Bei Yutang’s mobile phone rang, breaking the weird atmosphere.

Bei Yutang looked at the strange number displayed on her mobile phone. She had just obtained a new number and very few people knew about it.

Apart from close friends and parents, only Hughes knew about it.

“Who is this?” Bei Yutang pressed the answer button.

“Hello, is this Miss Bei Yutang?” A young woman’s voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Yes. May I ask who you are?”

“Tang, it’s me, Annie.” The other party said excitedly.

A hint of surprise flashed across Bei Yutang’s eyes, “Annie, it’s you.”

“Yes. I asked someone to find your number this time because I wanted to thank you. If it weren’t for you, I would have been…” She paused, seeming very sad, but soon, her tone became cheerful again, “Are you free? I want to treat you to a meal.”

Bei Yutang closed the book and glanced at the time. “No need to eat. How about having afternoon tea together?”

“Okay, then let’s meet at XX Cafe at three o’clock.”

“No problem.”

After hanging up the phone, she heard Hughes’ questioning voice.

“Who is it?”

“Annie, you’ve seen it.”

Hughes frowned. It was obvious that he didn’t remember her existence.

“I’m going to meet her. Please come to XX Cafe to pick me up after five o’clock.”

Hughes nodded in agreement, “Let the driver take you there.”

“No, it’s more convenient to take a taxi.”

XX Cafe—

As soon as Bei Yutang entered the cafe, she immediately saw Annie sitting there.

“Tang, you’re here.” Annie greeted warmly.

After Bei Yutang ordered a cup of coffee, she looked at the person in front of her.

“You seem a little haggard.”

Annie looked slightly stunned and explained with a smile: “It’s because I’ve been working late lately.”

As she said that, she changed the subject and asked, “Are you still following that rich man now?”

“Right.”

“Is he good to you?” Annie asked.

“Well enough.”

A flash of envy flashed across Annie’s eyes, “You are so lucky to have met a good person.”

“God bless me.” Bei Yutang said jokingly.

At this moment, the waiter came up with the coffee.

After Bei Yutang gently stirred it, she picked up the coffee cup. As soon as her lips touched the edge of the cup, the movement in her hand stopped.

Her eyes were calmly paying attention to the person opposite. She could see her staring intensely at the cup of coffee in her hand.

Seeing her put down the coffee, Annie asked suspiciously, “Why don’t you drink it?”

“It’s too hot. Just wait a moment.” Bei Yutang looked at the woman in front of her.

She didn’t feel sad about her betrayal. After all, they had a relationship when they were together, but it was not a deep enough relationship to make her feel disappointed.

“Annie, you asked me to come here today, not just to thank me, right? Tell me, the purpose of you inviting me here.”

The smile in her eyes faded. She looked at her with cold eyes.

Annie looked at her in shock, “Tang, what are you talking about? I don’t understand.”

“Do you still want to act? Tell me, who is the master behind you?” Bei Yutang was too lazy to play guessing games with her and asked straight to the point.

“I, I really don’t know what you are talking about.” A trace of panic flashed in Annie’s eyes.

Bei Yutang’s lips slightly raised, “Annie, do you know? You are not suitable for lying.”

As Annie was thinking about how to dispel her suspicions, a male voice came from behind her.

“Miss Bei is very smart.”

When Bei Yutang heard the voice, her pupils shrank slightly. She saw Joseph walking toward her, with a hint of appreciation and hatred in his eyes.

She wondered when she noticed the hatred in his eyes.

She had no enmity against him, so where did his hatred for her come from?

Her revenge on him hadn’t even begun yet.

“Miss Bei, we would like to invite you to our house for a chat. I wonder if you would honor us.”

Bei Yutang saw that all the customers in the coffee shop stood up, with pistols visibly tucked on their waists. The meaning was so obvious that she had to go even if she didn’t want to.

“Mr. Joseph went to such trouble to invite me. If I didn’t go, wouldn’t I be sorry for you?”

Joseph was very satisfied with her awareness of current affairs. He originally wanted to let her drink the drugged coffee and take her away without anyone noticing. Now that she saw through it, he stopped hiding it.

“Let’s go.” Joseph looked at her, not afraid of what she could do.

Bei Yutang stood up, took two steps, suddenly stopped, and turned to look at Annie, “Your gratitude is very special. I will always remember it.”

A look of uneasiness flashed across Annie’s face, “I’m sorry, I…”

Bei Yutang coldly interrupted her explanation, “You don’t need to explain to me.”

With that said, she followed Joseph and left.

After getting into his car, the car quickly drove away from the cafe.

Shortly after Bei Yutang was taken away, the phone on Hughes’ desk rang.

“What’s up?”

“Boss, Miss Bei was taken away by Joseph.”
