216 Amusement Park
A faint smile appeared on Shan Yue’s lips. “I know what you’re worried about. Believe me, I’ll arrange everything after that. Don’t tell anyone about my identity tonight, including Xi Feng. When the time comes, I’ll naturally acknowledge him.”
“Ling Yue, I can promise you all of this.” Ye Ying pursed his lips and thought for two seconds. “There’s something you have to promise me. I’ve already instructed everything in the regiment to come and find you. I’ll follow you nearby until you return to Federal City safely.”
Shan Yue did not hesitate much and agreed immediately because she knew that even if she let Ye Ying go back now, he would still follow her secretly. It was better to take care of each other.
“Okay, you’ve stayed long enough. The commotion just now might have aroused the suspicion of the people around you. It’s time for you to leave.”
“If there’s anything you need, you have to contact me first!” With that, Ye Ying put on his mask and quickly climbed down the stairs, disappearing into the night.
The short night passed quickly, replaced by the light of sunrise.
As expected, just as Shan Yue had expected, when the two of them were about to meet at noon, Zhou Xuan asked about the commotion last night.
“Shan Yue, nothing happened last night, right?” Zhou Xuan probed. “I heard a sound next door in the middle of the night. It should be coming from your room.”
“Is that so? Why didn’t I know?” Shan Yue’s words were casual, and her expression was relaxed. “Perhaps Young Master Zhou was too tired yesterday and heard wrongly. Nothing happened in my room last night.”
Although Zhou Xuan was sure that he would not have such a wrong hearing because of exhaustion, looking at Shan Yue’s casual appearance, he knew that Shan Yue would obviously not tell him even if something happened, so he did not ask further.
“By the way, Mr. Carter just asked someone to tell me that he has something to tell us. He hopes that we can look for him with Mu Wei when we have time.” Zhou Xuan’s brows relaxed.
After Shan Yue heard this, she pursed her lips with interest. “Of course there’s no problem. Let’s set the time after lunch. When everyone is free, we can sit down and talk.”
“Shan Yue, after lunch…” Just as Shan Yue turned to leave for lunch, Zhou Xuan’s shout behind her interrupted her.
“What’s wrong, Young Master Zhou?” Shan Yue’s cold face appeared in front of him. “Other than discussing something with Mr. Carter after dinner, is there anything else?”
Zhou Xuan hesitated again and again. After some thought, he finally chose to say, “Since the project cooperation has been completed and we’ve finally come to Las Vegas, we can’t waste this opportunity. We found out that there’s an amusement park nearby. Mu Wei and I are going to play in the afternoon to relax. Miss Shan, do you want to come?”
Shan Yue thought that she didn’t have any other plans in the afternoon, so she didn’t refuse. “Okay, I haven’t been to the amusement park in a long time. It’s good to relax.”
Coincidentally, Mu Wei came out of the room at this moment. Shan Yue looked sideways and smiled. “President Mu, let’s go to the amusement park together after talking to Mr. Carter in the afternoon.”
As soon as he said this, Zhou Xuan’s expression changed. He quickly wanted to speak, but he could not snatch Mu Wei away.
“An amusement park? What amusement park?” Mu Wei’s eyes were filled with surprise as he raised his eyebrows. “Isn’t it better to stay in a hotel? Why do you have to go to an amusement park?”
Seeing this, Zhou Xuan quickly pulled Mu Wei over and covered his mouth to stop him from continuing. The two of them even made a comical scene.
“It’s settled then. We’ll go together after we’re done talking to Mr. Carter.” Zhou Xuan said in a panic and forcefully pulled Mu Wei downstairs.
When they were alone, Zhou Xuan explained his motive.
