Chapter 284: A Bigger Lurking Threat (4)
Long Feiting: “…”
It seemed like that…
“Why did you do all these, then? Didn’t you say Bao Junyan gives you lots of money to spend? You can absolutely turn his money into your own, so the reason you gave doesn’t hold water!”
Hence, what she said about not being dependent on others was a load of bullshit!
Mu Huan: “…”
Why was he being so difficult?!
“Fine, I was just giving an excuse to fend you off. The fact is that I like an exciting life, that is why I choose to take on such assignments at Know-All Agency! How could being a canary kept in a cage be as meaningful as depending on myself and on my capabilities to earn my own keep in an exciting way?!”
After crossing swords with him so many times, Mu Huan had found Long Feiting to be a person with too much time and boredom in his life. For people like him, the most important thing in life was probably looking for entertainment. He must fear boredom.
Well then, if she said that she did this work for excitement, he would very likely believe it!
True enough…
“I see. And I was wondering why you would do this sort of work when you don’t lack money!”
Long Feiting believed her.
Just like what Mu Huan thought, Long Feiting was a person with too much time and boredom on his hand. With so many older brothers, he never really had to work — not in the past and not in the future — to enjoy a luxurious life. Life would naturally become boring if one didn’t have to work to attain anything.
Just like a recent report in the news: there was a young man overseas who struck the lottery and won a few billion dollars. Instantly, he found himself at the peak of his life — luxury cars, luxury homes, beautiful women, traveling around the world — a stylish living. After a few years, before he was even spent out, he developed depression.
People may think that those who go around stirring trouble for nothing are crazy, but to people who have no pursuits in life, looking for entertainment and stirring trouble are their greatest pursuits. Otherwise, their days would be spent in depression.
“That’s right! Hence, I’m not as afraid as you think of letting Bao Junyan see this video. Furthermore, Bao Junyan just doesn’t like me wearing thick makeup or getting into fights, but he may not necessarily abandon me just because of that!
“If it were you — if you had a girlfriend, whom you’ve always thought to be gentle, turn out to be bold and capable, like me, would you abandon her because of that?”
Of course he didn’t think he would!
That Mu Huan was able to complete the mission in such a tightly secured club within such a short time, and then make a successful escape, and along the way save Bao Junyan’s life, only awed Long Feiting, even if unwillingly!
If he had a girlfriend as fun, bold, and smart as Mu Huan, he would only like her all the more! Finding out that she had hidden this from him wouldn’t have made him angry. On the contrary, it would have made him want to take these assignments together with her so that he too could enjoy an exciting life!
“You wouldn’t, would you! Even you wouldn’t, what more my intelligent husband with such good taste? He would only love me more!”
Oddly, Long Feiting found her words irritating. He said icily, “Since that’s the case, why didn’t you dare to tell your husband about it?”
If she really wasn’t afraid, why was she so agitated just then, and the previous time as well?!
“Although I feel that my husband wouldn’t abandon me for sure, the fact is that we haven’t been married for long. Of course I’d be afraid of having things go wrong. So if I can help it, I still wouldn’t want him to know. But if even you can’t locate Song Xing, how do you expect me to do it? If you’re going to make life so difficult for me, then you might as well just tell my husband about these things.”
